If you didn't complete your due diligence then you cant blame anyone else for the fact that your returns will be lower than you expected.

No, I am admitting I didn't do my due diligence. What I am saying though is that without further investment from new customers, new hardware will not be added and the break even period will continue to be extended and extended as difficulty increases. So... no new customers means we don't get our money back ever. The FAQ should be updated to reflect that.

why u guys dont make a 'Withdraw' button-option???

and i did not understant when the automatic withdraw is making...1 Months, 1 Year or when Deposit amount reach 100% ?

Withdrawals are automatic when a person's account has earned 0.1BTC, or, if the account is nearly complete and it crosses the 0.1BTC threshold, it will delay that withdrawal until the account is complete.

Warning: Wildly inaccurate numbers ahead!  Use the concept, not the numbers.

Let's say that you deposited 1BTC, and your reward is 110%.  Complete Reward time is currently listed at 56 months...  which will go down when new hardware comes online and will go up when the network difficulty changes.

But, let's assume the reward time remains constant.

This means that in 5.1 months, you'll get a payment of 0.1BTC, and will continue to get the same payment 11 times total.  If the final payment were for 0.1001BTC, then you'll have to wait the extra day for that extra 0.0001 to come in.

If you deposited 10BTC, you'll be getting a payment roughly every 14 days...  100BTC == roughly every day and a half.

P2Pool luck is at 140%!

To much variance, I would suggest we abandon it as fast as possible Wink

haha, good one.

I´ve seen that there are a bunch of users of p2pool with relatively new addresses whose rewards are untouched. Are they the ones associated with the "50% under your account" deposits made by pyramining?

Anybody has other ideas? Just curious about those misteryous powerful miners.

I think you are missing the point.  When you joined (and I did) approx 1-2 years ago, difficulty was much lower and no one predicted that ASIC would make the network difficulty increase at such a rate (30% per 10 days at current rate).

We effectively bought a share in a miner, not an income stream, so we are subject to any changes in difficulty! I am in the same boat, I have (at current BTC value) a small fortune outstanding, but I cant say I was misled.  I invested, knowing that if the difficulty went up, it would take longer to get paid out and if it went down (it has before- not often but it has), it would complete quicker.

If you didn't complete your due diligence then you cant blame anyone else for the fact that your returns will be lower than you expected.

The % coming from the referrals actually _is_ an income, I thought it was quite clear. However I will try to improove the FAQ section, thanks for the hints.

I think a lot needs to be cleared up in the FAQ. I did my best to read through everything before depositing my BTC almost exactly a year ago. At that time I think the Break Even time was ~12 months and the Complete Reward was ~13 months. That seems entirely reasonable for a 10% return on investment.

And what you said back then was:

However I invite everybody to be patient: when ASICs will finally be ready, most probably all deposits will become "complete" far before the date expected at the moment of the deposit.

Now that the ACIS are all installed, the complete time is nearly 5x longer than what it was when I invested. I realize that you have very little control over this, and there is nothing I can do to get my BTC back, but I feel like your FAQ back then (and even now) along with your posts between then and now paint a much rosier picture than what actually is. I feel mislead. And I think that your FAQ continues to mislead people into thinking that the Break Even will eventually go down. With the difficulty continuing to go up and others continuing to add more hashing power to the network, I do not have any confidence that the Break Even period will ever go down to a reasonable timeframe. I am a year into my pyramining experience, at the point where I was originally told I would finally start earning my "bonus", yet I have only recouped 1/5 of my initial investment.

I will continue to watch the BTC trickle in over the next 5 years (hopefully), but I cannot see how I would ever recommend this service to anyone else. And that there is the issue, because unless pryamining continues to get new investments, the Break Even date will continue to get further and further out.

What should be made clear in the FAQ, is how pyramining expects to continue providing ROI for its investors. Unless there is a path that doesn't rely on new investors to put more money in, then I think that the idea that this isn't a pyramid scheme needs to be re-evaluated. Can pyramining be self sufficient? If so, how?

Hey pyramining,
I think you should really improve the FAQ on your site!

In particular I find this sentence misleading:
Quote
30% of your income will be sent upwards: 15% of your income will be sent to your sponsor. 7.5% to the 2nd grade sponsor and 7.5% to the 3rd grade sponsor.
You do not specify this operation happens RECURSIVELY so:
First level sponsor gets only 70% of his 15% revenue = 10.5%
Second level sponsor gets 70% of his 7.5% revenue plus first level revenue on first level revenue = 70% x (7.5% + 15% x 15%) = 70% x 9.75% = 6.825%
Third level sponsor get more than second level one: 70% x (7.5% + 15% x 9.75% + 7.5% x 15%) = 70% x 10.0875% = 7.06125%
Fourth level sponsor gets 70% x (15% x 10.0875% + 7.5% x 9.75% + 7.5% x 15%) = 2.3585625%
And so on...

You should also specify what you mean by "Current infrastructure" and "New infrastructure" so people stop asking the same questions again and again

Could be better if pyramining can allow us to set the miners pointed to the specified pools, boosting the hashrate and block found and helping the users in the pool. I would recommend bitminter as they currently have a small amount of block found.
Addon: making it available with people with more than 100gh/s would be nice.

This is not a good idea: 1) things would become very complex on my side. 2) as of today, p2pool is second only to solo-mining. All the other solutions are less interesting.

It would be very neat for pyramining to start a p2pool proxy available for pyramining users that allows us to set our little miners to autamatically deposit on pyramining with the most reduced fees. I'm not sure about pyramining deposits' most inner workings, so I do not know if it would be good to pyramining or not.

I am working on this, however mining to a remote p2pool may not be the best solution, the network latency could reduce a bit the mining efficiency, it would be better to set up local p2pool nodes for everyone who wants to mine on p2pool (which is a good thing, in general), and if you want to invest your mined bitcoins in pyramining you can just use set a deposit address as the p2pool payout address.

awesome!  Payments are dripping to my accounts quite fast. I hope our Break even frame does not lengthen too much.

in 2 months my deposit is at 1.4%  Embarrassed

can I just withdraw? :/

Pyramining was too late with ASICs... lets all hope that we get our BTC back some day
I actually am starting to have my money back. I invested about a year ago, now I have back 25% of my return. This does need just patience. Also, if I could, I'd start designing graphene ASICS.
