Don't hold your breath expecting Eleuthria to enable merged mining for I0Coin:

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.651872

"I do not have any plans to support I0C merged mining.  The fact that anybody has the slightest interest in I0C at this point is baffling.  It's got nothing to offer.  The only reason I implemented NMC merged mining was that NMC serves a purpose outside of being traded for BTC (even if most people don't utilize that purpose).  Nothing like that can be said of any other altcoin.  Piggybacking chains onto BTC when they are technically a competing chain is just stupid."

He can always change his mind though....  Wink

I agree with this, I just wanted my i0coin so I could trade it for bitcoin:)  I am holding some litecoin because it is mined on CPUs. People wiht out money or highend GPUs will be able to mine their own litecoin to either trade for bitcoin or to buy in litecoin. litecoin, other than namecoin are the only two alt coins worth anything. and I am not saying they are even worth much:)

i0.btcguild.com.  Euth, will you be adding ixc and ioc with nmc and btc merged mining?   

If memory serves, it was about a month or two before he added nmc merged mining, so I would expect it sometime in January or February... Maybe by super bowl time?

Oh lol! I had hoped it went to a charity or development of some sort.

Nope too bad it did not you must have had 200k or so of them mining with 10gh/s right from the start. BTW take it that must have been you that just sent me the mystery BTC payment for mining on your pool right? If so thanks.

Yes, I updated the thread. Sent you an extra coin cuz of the delay. The front end will be up soon, once it is working I'd like you to come back:)

Thank you and happy holidays!

One of those "Do not open until Christmas" sort of things I suppose.

This is why I always set the auto-payouts on my wallets so I get paid daily.

Oh, How do i get my coin?

I would recommend you perfect time travel so you can go back to retrieve them before they were donated to /dev/null.  The i0coin protocol literally broke a week after its launch.  The exchanges were no more, there was no mining.  It was only a while after that fact that anybody came back to try to revive them.  The pool was completely shut down, the wallet is no more.  If you're only coming back 4 months after that fact, obviously you didn't have very much invested into it.

10 GHash/S for about 5 days. I was mining right at the start. I was involved in the test premine as well. I just wanted to jump in at the start and get some coin when the dif was low and then hold them for a while to see if it took off. I guess that was a bad idea. I had no idea you would my give coins away. What is /dev/null? Any why did they need my coin?

Thanks

Solidcoin isn't going to suddenly stop working making it impossible to transfer money between wallets due to every node denying transactions from each other.

Unless the author decides to implement untested changes and release them as a mandatory update...

If you get a chance, it would be great to have a ixcoin.btcguild.com pool too in the future.

Hope all goes well in T-2!


LOL guess ixcoin isnt worth his time. Cheesy

Maybe show some good faith and honor your accounts with your users that mine i0coins? Or you can just be a jackass.

How, just take people' word for it that they mined 'X' I0C?

LOL.  I would love to know what my balance was.

You've got no backups what so ever?  Because they take up so much virtual and physical space?

You could have AT LEAST put the warning on the main BTCguild site.

Luckily I can say this is the biggest burn I've had since dealing with virtual currency.

So my 450 mined i0coins are gone from i0guild? Excuse me while I move my BTCGuild miners to Eligius...

LOL , you didnt care about it enough to withdraw it however now that its worth something you cry about it.

Brilliant.
Not siding with anyone on this discussion regarding the pool, however, Clipse, your comment is simply stupid.

Quite normal reaction and you would be the same as well if it was something of value you 'owned'

If you had something that you didn't realise it's value, but then when it's value was known you found someone had taken it away from you - of course anyone would be unhappy about that.

There's no argument in your statement, just hind sight which is, well, in this case probably more correctly called conceit.

Dunno your genius self must have still had some of the user account data from your i0 mining pool or did you trash it?

I didn't exactly get a notification it was going away. I do go on vacation for more than a day at a time occasionally. I'm not exactly crying, either, I'm just taking my business elsewhere. Why do you care so much that I am?

And they are i0coins what the hell, just mine some more somewhere else

The implications of what occurred with I0coin show the contempt the pool operator has for alternative currencies. What's to prevent him from doing this to Solidcoin if its popularity drops? How about Bitcoin itself if Solidcoin or another pool replaces it? Even 72 hours notice isn't probably enough. It would have been better to have done a week notification.

There is a big difference between a coin losing popularity, and a coin actually breaking which required unrelated developers to come in and fix it at a later time.  Solidcoin isn't going to suddenly stop working making it impossible to transfer money between wallets due to every node denying transactions from each other.
