Maybe not for signatures, but you can post these on your website, blog, forum posts, etc no problem.  I have no idea why they disabled images in signatures, that's BS if you ask me but I don't make the rules.

edit: but i totally overlooked the no-sig image thing when i bumped it.  still useful for other forums.

Any chance you could fix it for Btcguild? They changed the api key today because they went to pps.

Fixed the numbering, no longer has a billion places after the decimal. Also added GH/s notation for people pulling over 1000MH/s.

Everyone knows that a Gigahash/byte is 1024 of the Mega's, right?  I hope you just typed 1000MH/s as a round number.

EDIT: I see you are using API tokens, so the pools are reporting what they are reporting.  Tongue

Actually it isn't.

SI prefixes are base 10.  Computer industry started improperly using base 2 prefixes w/ same name as SI prefixes.

Thus giga can be either 1000 or 1024.


Officially SI and IEC standardized a different set of prefixes for binary.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_prefix

1024^3 wouldn't be Giga it would be Gibi. Now nobody uses it but that is the official prefix standard. 

Giga is perfectly fine for base 10.  Generally only capacity is in base 2.  Speeds are in base 10.  If you have a 1Mbps internet connection it is 1000 kbps not 1024.  If you have a 1 Ghz CPU it is 1000 MHz not 1024.  If you have 1 GH/s it is 1000 MH/s not 1024.

Looks nice, thanks! Once I have enough posts to add an image in my sig I'll include it.  The hash is showing correctly for me at BTCGuild.

Also, I remember seeing somewhere that you should keep your API key private.  Is it really that important?  I'm mainly asking because anyone who sees this bar can look at the source and see the owner's API Key.
The API key only allows them to fetch data about your workers, I don't see any real need to keep that private.

I think I fixed the deepbit issue (again, a stupid typo) and I'll look into adding Triplemining. Looked into Triplemining, was unable to find JSON data for the workers. I can only add pools if they provide JSON data about the workers.

Thanks for trying. I'll ask the owner, MrSam to see about that.

can a userbar be made for my pool bitcoins.lc please,as I like knowing my total mining ability online?
Bitcoins.lc doesn't provide any JSON data (that I can find) about worker's mining rates so I can't make one for that pool yet.

Mining Userbars
I was bored, thought the other userbars were ugly, here's what came out.

Supported Pools
  • BTC Guild
  • Deepbit
  • Slush

Things to come
  • More pools supported
  • Different styles of userbars available

An example is in my signature. You can make your own at my site.

Any suggestions, comments, criticisms, etc. are welcomed.

You definitely use base 2 only in the case of bytes Tongue And I also fixed the bug when parsing Slush's JSON it was just a small typo.

No, the powers of 2 rule only applies to bytes.

bits as are used in network transfer rates use powers of 10 (a megabit is 1,000,000 bits, not 1,048,576), as do all other units. (including octets, which are not the same thing as bytes).

I understand what you're saying, teukon.  But now I wonder how the client and the pools are using the prefixes.  This matter is so trivial, that I'm not even going to waste time finding out. Cheers!

I disagree.  Technically kilo as a prefix means 1000 in all cases.  There is an informal understanding that in some situations to do with bit and byte, the prefixes represent 1024, but this is officially incorrect (according to SI) and kibi, mebi, gibi, et cetera should be used instead.

There is certainly no issue with the unit 'hash'.  Like 'watt' and 'hertz', the prefixes work in base 1000.

I'm on slush's pool and it keeps saying I'm offline.  Do I have to wait a little while for it to update?
That's weird, PM me your API key so I can check its parsing the JSON right.

same here.
