Congrats to NastyFans for receiving their 500th BTC donation today!A few updates...
NASTY POOL - nonnakip has made tremendous progress getting our P2Pool node integrated with nastyfans.org. In the meantime, we are currently seeing just under 80GH/s on our pool which is now generating 2.1% in fee donations for NastyFans. I expect to see our pool hashrate climb as more and more NastyFans discover it and unique features are implemented. If you would like to mine with us prior to the pool being integrated with nastyfans.org, you can by pointing your miner to nastyfans.org:9332 and using your BTC address as your username.
NASTY MINING - This will be the first full week of us mining with all of our 65nm ASICs. As we await our 28nm ASICs, we're in somewhat of a holding pattern while we repay loans. I have looked into ordering some other products, but I think that going forward, power consumption and profitability will be extremely important. I think we need to hold off for now while we await our 28nm ASICs and get ourselves back to being debt free. I will continue to expand our holding portfolio and look for alternative donation sources as it is a shame we will be losing the 1% of donations received by Carnth's BTCT fund now that the exchange is closing.
SILVER COINS - I have been selling
1g NastyFans 2013 Collector's coins as a fundraiser for NastyFans. So far we have raised
BTC2.02 and I will continue to let this fundraiser run until the end of the year, when I will make the donation. I have had a new year 2014 1g coin designed that features the new Nasty Pool and I plan to run another fundraiser using these coins for 2014. I am also working on a 1oz coin that I think will be unique and exciting. I will have more details on that fundraiser in the coming weeks.
GPU MINING - I have had a hell of a time stabilizing our GPU miner and have decided to focus it solely on LTC mining for now. I've traded our NVC for LTC and we are now scrypt mining LTC stable at 2MH/s with cool temperatures.
