I'd fight Gandhi.
Why can't someone just make a perfect pool already, sheesh....  Cheesy
Check out HHTT: http://hhtt.1209k.com/

When James' pool shutdown, he recommended HHTT. I looked into it, and I must say I am impressed with how the pool is designed. Don't need to register, and fees are very low (even lower if you use a higher difficulty), and I never had issues with anything going offline. Sucks that they don't do merged mining, but they are up 24/7. Oh, and it's a small pool, so no need to worry about %51'ing anything with all of that hardware.

Sorry I haven't been too vocal today.  I threw my back out 2 days ago and it's gotten worse over the last 48 hours.  Got the divs paid out, and was planning on moving the hardware over to ghash.io, but the pool seems to be down... again... which I do not like.

I have an alternative to ghash.io if they keep acting up.

Dividends info:

Mined: BTC65.17322820
Payout: BTC48.87992115
Per Bond: BTC0.00083914

All-Time Payout: BTC1011.78810445

We've now cracked 1000 BTC paid out!!!

Its not actually down, they changed servers, im using us1.ghash.io:3333 without problems and uk1.ghash.io:3333 works fine too. It looks like they removed or changed the name of nl1 server.

Hey LR - thanks for the update.  Hope your back gets better soon -- I'm in the same boat.

At what point would it make sense for you to start your own private pool?  Maybe we could make a % from others joining the pool as well? (but only accept miners > 10TH)

Same.

7 shares = 0.00587398 BTC this week.

That is 0.00083914 BTC per share.

I am not sure where I can see current bonds held but last weeks was 58,174 bonds so...

(58,174 X 0.00083914 BTC) X (4/3) = ~65.088173813 BTC for this week before LRMs cut.

At current difficulty, 23 TH/s for 7 days should have yielded ~68.5643 before pool fees on average.

Pretty damn close. Not a bad week I would say.

What does this Fincen ruling mean for LRM ??  http://cointext.com/fincen-issues-bitcoin-friendly-ruling-for-miners/

Yes, this is a very interesting clarification from FINCEN. Apparently if we were shareholders we would be fine because we are collectively mining for ourselves. As bondholders we do not "own" anything other than the right to receive a dividend. In its current configuration it is possible LRM needs to restructure the bonds into shares or become a MSB.

I'm not a lawyer. With that disclaimer, my simple interpretation, so far, is that it is probably not a problem for LRM. I think this would be the key paragraph (my red emphasis):

Quote
FinCEN understands that Bitcoin mining imposes no obligations on a Bitcoin user to send mined Bitcoin to any other person or place for the benefit of another. Instead, the user is free to use the mined virtual currency or its equivalent for the user’s own purposes, such as to purchase real or virtual goods and services for the user’s own use. To the extent that a user mines Bitcoin and uses the Bitcoin solely for the user’s own purposes and not for the benefit of another, the user is not an MSB under FinCEN’s regulations, because these activities involve neither “acceptance” nor “transmission” of the convertible virtual currency and are not the transmission of funds within the meaning of the Rule. This is the case whether the user mining and using the Bitcoin is an individual or a corporation, and whether the user is purchasing goods or services for the user’s own use, paying debts previously incurred in the ordinary course of business, or (in the case of a corporate user) making distributions to shareholders. Activities that, in and of themselves, do not constitute accepting and transmitting currency, funds or the value of funds, are activities that do not fit within the definition of “money transmission services” and therefore are not subject to FinCEN’s registration, reporting, and recordkeeping regulations for MSBs.8

Updated a week ago on the LRM website, I read that the cex.io disaply is for the LRM hashrate. But it still only shows 2.85GH. To state the obvious, it's should read at least 23TH. When will this actually reflect LRM's full hash rate?

I guess he didnt move the hardware yet...

For being such a large pool and a highly complicated situation the subject its pretty well ignored, 5 pages for the 25% of total hashrate controller "suppossed" **whateveryouwanttocallit**... we've 126 pages for an small mining project, who knows, im just thinking out loud.

I just happened to see this and wanted to know if LabRat is aware:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ghashio-and-double-spending-against-betcoin-dice-327767

In short it looks like cex/ghash was doing double spend attacks.  On November 11 they said they would look into it, but they haven't said anything since then as far as I can tell.

To me, this would be enough to make me wary of trusting them...
