That's my guess to, but i have to ask.

It was our hopper-detection that found the user, as he begin mining at the start of a round.
So it has to be intentional, either from his or from pirateat40's side.

As someone who has, in the past, purchased shares on your pool specifically, as a buyer, we have no way of timing a purchase. The shares I purchase sit in a queue if other purchases were made before me. I've earned BTC on purchases, I've lost BTC on purchases.... on your pool.

That being said, most of us who purchase shares WOULD VERY MUCH like for things to start at the beginning of a round, however this will never be possible, because every purchaser would follow suit and try it.

Many assurances have been given to us users of the service that there is no backend bitcoind, no hashes are being proxied to pools UNLESS someone has purchased shares. No hopping. bitHopper cannot handle the getworks. I trust pirateat40 implicitly about the that statement: "no backend proxies, no bitcoind's". Someone paid BTC to mine your pool.




even if they had a bitcoind in the backend, they would be paying miners X amount per share, which is about 40% above what they would get from the blocks mined....  they would be rolling the dice just like the purchases are doing.

This is news to me.  How are people timing their share purchases?  I don't see any way to do that.  I expect the start time was luck, but maybe there is a way to time the start of your purchase I do not know about?

It wasn't timed, it started at the end of a round and caught a block.  Then found a few blocks within an hour.  It was not a hop just a thrashing of power.

Update:

We have added the following pool to the non-supported list.

I just banned the public IP of GPUMAX at bitlc.net cause we received a huuuge miner, that submitted 900k shares as full speed. (600-800gh?)

Did someone actually buy hashspeed for 60 btc+ to mine at us for that, or is it you - pirateat40 that's using unused resources to hop large-scale?

(edit: to be clear, the monitoring stuff is probably perfectly useful to people, though it would better and more reliably be accomplished with local software rather than a DOS vulnerable central service, the ability to redirect hash power is what is that existential risk to bitcoin)


If you don't want people to rape your system, then use a rape-proof design. No use whining about it.

gpumax is the shit!!!!!


btw: gigavps whats up bro? hows that BFL single? (im thinking about ordering 6 of them in march)

you going to enter a FPGA farm in next years mining rig contest? (for those who dont know gigavps is last years winner)

The single is doing great so far. 813Mh/s and rock solid performance so far (and pointed at gpumax!). 10 more are on their way so it'll be a nice little fpga setup once everything arrives.

I think the title "World's best rig builder" will suffice for one year. I don't want the contest to be over before it begins.  Wink



What contest is this? Some of us haven't been around for as long as y'all.

I don't know what has changed over the last 2 days (nothing on my end) but my speeds are awesome as is connectivity and no 'sick' miners in CGMiner.

Woke up this morning and everything is running 100% at top speeds without a hitch.

Thanks Pirate.

here, here. I vote moar hashes.

Anyways...11 posts and two days of trying hard to be nice in the newbie section... BOOMSTICK!

+100 to no sick miners this morning. gpumax is incredible!

I just thought I should stop by and say everything has been running smoothly for me.  I honestly haven't really been paying attention to my miners, but am still getting paid everyday.

i see, is there a list of supported(or non-supported) pools? i was looking forward to the purchase i have sitting there, how are refunds handled if i don't like any of your supported pools?

They are listed in the OP and we only support Bitcoin pools.  If you would like a refund let me know.

so it is, right in front of my face, but yeah none of the supported pools are any good for me, so i guess its a refund, if you ever decide to allow that site let me know (its the same algo/miners as bitcoin, a direct clone i think)
(unless you can just let the order through this once, i think it would be hilarious to see the giant spike in hashing power there Tongue)

apart from that i'm liking GPUMax, its great.

Either fun or melt that pools server. Smiley  Can't do it.  I'll process your refund.

Thanks,
