Sorry for sounding stupid: What should I enter as public key? I rarely use keys so I keep forgetting how to use them <.<. I have a gpg key generated for use in the #bitcoin-otc channel, and I guess I could use that? Though when I enter it, it says the key is too short, but it's a bit over 3000 characters. What am I supposed to do?

PM me the work and the solution and I can see what's wrong.

I solved one of the pool's work items offline using oclvanitygen but the submission page says it doesn't accept it.
Did I miss something?  I did in fact find the pattern.

Well, I don't really have data on how fast the miners are on the pool. Moreover, it is a game of luck at times. 1.5. BTC is still sane, but can take a couple days or weeks still.

Well, if you request a work you will be given a price quote. The honest price shows how long you'd need to mine with a normal mining software to achieve a similar result.

Generally, aim under 9 characters total and you'll be fine Wink.

 Here's an example:

Code:
Work accepted!

Your work has been prepared!

Please send a reward you want to pay for it to this address: 1HPttAE1VEXZ7ggAd8aTB3SkXGbWuaPg2e

Minimum fee for your work is 0.01500000BTC.

Honest fee for your work is 1.45018819BTC.

If you want your work to be a priority, please pay at least 2.20000000BTC.

Upon receiving a payment with enough confirmations, we will send out the work to miners to solve.

You can check the status of your request here

If no fee is paid within a week, your request will be forgotten by the system.

Go back

If you like this site, please consider sharing or sending some Bitcoins over to:

1YXA3E8nmyQrST9zH6S3NaEGF76ByPpPJ

I know it's 1.45018819BTC "Honest" but how much time does that equate to? Almost one and a half blocks of the blockchain?

Sorry, I'm not a miner.

How do we convert an estimated difficulty to an estimated timeframe that it might complete in assuming the pool remains at the size it is now?

Don't want to go for something too ambitious, send the coins when it will take hundreds of years to compute, no?

Hmm, I guess the pool is having problems with many solutions being submitted for the same work in a short period of time. It is probably caused because the pool is running on Google App Engine and multiple instances of the app can be active at the same time and each has its own RAM. I will have to look into patching it up.

Something odd is going on.

The reward for the 1Piachu and 1ThePiachu patterns make it worthwhile to mine them, (in fact 1Piachu alone is the profitable one).

I've seen my miners submit several solutions to the 1Piachu pattern that seemed accepted (the miners then switched to the next most profitable pattern) but the 1Piachu pattern keeps coming back and I've not received any reward.

It doesn't seem to handle short patterns like that too well, I wasn't around to watch it at the time but my logs show that my machines alone sent a couple hundred solutions in during the time it was up.  Seem to recall the same thing happened last time there was a very short pattern as well, kind of acting like a load issue but you'd think if it accepted the first one properly and removed it from the work list it wouldn't be a problem.

Okay, so I am testing vanitymining..

I use a Sapphire 7950 OC at 1200 Mhz

https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Vanitygen:
Quote
AMD Radeon 58XX, 68XX GPUs: up to 23.5 Mkey/s.
AMD Radeon 69XX GPUs: up to 19.5 Mkey/s.

my 5830's can do 24MKey/s, but it's still not anywhere near worth it

well, piachu wasn't too bad.  i did that like 3 times in 5 minutes or so

Address: 1PiachuEZabE5sx1jqWVwvijsGYmzSibYo       is my favorite by far

it looks like it's up to 5 now

Forgive my blindness, but I'd like a slim costpm custom address.

How do i get my primate key?

You can get your private key from one of your Bitcoin addresses, or from places like

http://gobittest.appspot.com/Address

Keep it safe, use the public key associated with it to request a new vanity address at:

https://vanitypool.appspot.com/newWork
Keep it safe, get it from a web app  Roll Eyes

Or you can generate it with this open-source software without relying on anything: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.1406130

So, if I understand this correctly, because of the multi-key split, a vanity pool miner could not work on more than one name at a time, unless the multiple names were all submitted with the same public key?  I misunderstood how this worked if that is the case...

That is correct.

Thank you for your input, guys!
Now it makes sense. I will keep an eye on this for later.. 12.5 BTC block reward maybe? ;-)
