So I just received my coin!  It's awesome (too bad the mail system broke the plastic seal slightly.. I'm not too worried about that..

Anyway, just double checking... Is there anything wrong with me setting my donation address to the coin?

Been using middlecoin.com with some GPUs a while ago, he does some amazing trading

At a given point 3 GPUs worth 300 EUR (+- 1.2MH/s) were outperforming 50 GH/s of BTC Asics costing me *a lot* more

This is why I suggested moving the existing GPUs to a switching pool. Profitability has been running 50-100% higher than mining LTC directly for a while now.

Our Viper 25MH/s Scrypt Miner has been ordered and we are confirmed to be in Batch 1 with shipping currently scheduled in Q2/Q3.  Funds to secure this pre-order came from what remained of our alt coin sales.

Would you consider trying middlecoin.com, hashco.ws, or switchercoin.com with that beast?

It's a little early to speculate on how we will be mining with it.  I'll keep our options open.

Is only the 30% covered with alt coins, or the total value?

Only the 30% has been paid so far.  We still have ~0.5 BTC and ~$2,000 left from the alt coin proceeds.  This will most likely not cover the entire remaining amount for the scrypt miner when it comes due, but we have already started rebuilding our alt coin stash for this purpose.
Awesome! 

I have to say, I love the flexibility and forward thinking you all show!

Distribution 278468 is complete. We thank our donators.

This distribution is bigger because it includes 1.09256291 BTC as donation from mint sales. This slipped into distribution because of human error when adding mint fee payments. But I think nobody complains that some donations slip out early.

There is currently 8.48243709 BTC donations from mint sales I still hold until NASTY MINING percentage is decided.

Note that nastyfans tracking ownership of minted seats only matters for voting. Donations to minted seats do not care about owner.

Of course to be purely factual about it that is true. There is also a "fun" aspect to all this that should not be dismissed; when people get the coins as gifts they want to go online and track the unpaid balance for "their" seats, participate i the pools, etc.

I agree completely and welcome new members. I wanted only to point out that a account is not a requirement to own a minted seat. It is only a requirement to vote.

They make great gifts and an excellent introduction to the world of crypto finance. .

This was posted today by Butterfly Labs.  Sounds as if they may begin shipping Monarchs very shortly...

...we feel our timeline to begin shipments towards the end of the year is solid.

They also just reduced the price by 50%.

If I have gifted minted seats, what is the procedure for the recipient to register on the nastyfans site and transfer the seats to that new account?

The recipient creates a new account. Do not worry about account expire after 24 hours.

Send me PM with:
  • your nastyfans username
  • the public key of minted seat to transfer (the first 8 characters are enough: 1NastyXX)
  • the nastyfans username of recipient

I will manually change ownership and old owner receives notification of transfer.

Note that nastyfans tracking ownership of minted seats only matters for voting. Donations to minted seats do not care about owner.

Also it is OK if minted seat owner does not want a nastyfans account. In this case just PM me that you do not have the minted seat anymore. If the new recipient does not want a nastyfans account maybe you keep the vote for yourself and do not PM me at all.

nastyfans web interface updated. On home page you see donations held by nastyfans for online and minted seats. I will improve it later to show individual minted seats.

I talk with OgNasty about minted seat payout threshold. Together we decide that a fixed threshold of 0.001 BTC will allow frequent payouts and avoid dust.
