Forum user VKBIT has created a cool interface for CKPool so we can see some statistics about the current solo mining operation. It shows the odds of us hitting a block with the current hashrate which is a cool feature. Now we just need to find a way to beat the odds and generate some excitement.

I have been looking at ckpool a little now that we are solo mining. I learned that people can verify we are mining by seeing the statistics at the following link: https://solo.ckpool.org/users/1NastyFRkeUTmMdbMmzggDVTQA6r3ibUoX

You can even join us by tossing a little hashrate at the cause.

Yes, that would be extremely helpful - The numbers for the Nasty Fans look weird right now (at least, against the collection titles) - Happy to update those to reflect the type data more accurately once it is available.

That is a good question. The type doesn’t directly correlate to the number of seats on a coin but is selected as an identifier by nonnakip. I could put together a type<>coin mapping if nobody else wants to take up the challenge and it would be useful.

I decided the Avalon miner isn’t mining enough to make an impact so I set it up to solo mine. That adds some excitement as we can now hope to beat the odds and score a block reward for ourselves.

on https://nastyfans.org/mint.json, what does "type" represent?

My assumption was that it is the number of seats for that coin, but type=1001 has 50 listed items, which would imply 50,050 seats, which exceeds the published 30k limit.

Is there a list of type<>coin mappings somewhere?

I can't say for sure.  This would be something that naypalm would have to answer.  It appears that his Casascius coin analyzer is still running, so maybe a process he had running failed or needs to be restarted.  Just a guess...  The data he uses to build that site is still available at: https://nastyfans.org/mint.json

I've also been made aware that there is a delay in processing transactions from the online auction, so my advice would be to hold off on purchasing any seats at this time until whatever is causing the delay is resolved.

What happened to the data on http://nastyfans.uberbills.com/?  Can't any longer see relevant data- active, opened, total, minted coins, or pending payments.

I don't think fees are the reason that distributions aren't going out.  We haven't sold many coins lately and haven't been mining anything for a while now.  On that note, I've decided to get a miner going for NastyMining and it is currently up and running at around 3TH/s but I don't see this making much of a difference in the distributions.  It is an Avalon Nano 3 and we were able to get it shipped with a power supply for $162 with early bird pricing.  I also took advantage of the current low network transaction fees to consolidate our coins while I had access to the wallet.

Have you thought about implementing Lightning network for transactions? Transactions have been on hold for more than a month and things do not seem to improve in the future.

11 years ago nastyfans auction opens. I post some fun facts about the eleventh year of nastyfans...

• 4 seats sold on the auction (total of 0.00285 BTC)
• 1 year ago a nastyfans seat sold for 0.0005 BTC ($10.08)
• most recent nastyfans seat sale was for 0.0015 BTC ($29.90)
• 1 seat minted via NastyShop
• 0.24439495 BTC donated to nastyfans
• 1 seat accepting donations received 0.00000675 BTC
• 6 new members

The task list for the coming year:

• NastyPool online again
• more polls for handling terminated seats
• update backend infrastructure

I thank the members for making this fanclub so much fun to be with!

1. Yes. If you buy a seat on the auction, you are buying it from another member.
2. Yes. There is no limit to the number of seats a member can own as far as I’m aware.
3. The seat is transferred out from your account and onto the coin so it then receives its distributions (separately from your account) to the coin’s address.

Majority? Which 6 tabs on nastyfans.org do not display current information and confuse more people than they help?

I don’t believe that would be a good idea currently. NastyPool hasn’t been operating for some time. The splitting and takeover of the p2pool project soured my personal taste for it a bit and there’s been no development on that front that I’m aware of for some time. I actually think a majority of the tabs on nastyfans.org should be removed as they don’t display current information and confuse more people than they help.

Does the pool accept nicehash solo mining rentals?

I noticed that on the nastyfans website the last confirmed sale is showing as 0.00045000 BTC per seat.  I wanted to drop a reminder that in March of 2021 I stated the following...


In the time since NastyMining has purchased ~2,000 seats from the public auction.  While the main goal was to give potential sellers liquidity to exit NastyFans if they so desired, the secondary goal was to "put a floor under seat prices in BTC terms" as that has been a common complaint over the years. 

I am now increasing that offer to buying an unlimited number of seats at a price of 0.00055 BTC per seat.  This marks a 10% increase in the floor price for NastyFans seats and anyone who wants to take advantage of this offer needs only to list their seats on the auction at nastyfans.org and drop me a message letting me know they've been listed.

Sign in and click "history" button. Then click "show details" button in donations section. That shows amount you received for each distribution.

Also on "home" screen you see your "on hold" total increase each week. Payout threshold for online seats is 0.0005 BTC. Payout threshold for minted seats is 0.001 BTC.

Stacks Bowers Galleries is auctioning off a few NastyFans Minted Seats this month.  This might be something to keep an eye on as I don't think these coins have been auctioned off in this setting before.  It might also be useful for gauging their value in 'the real world' outside of our little community.  Live bidding begins Mar 24, 2023 which is where the real fun could begin.  Interested bidders online have until then to register an account and make a bid.  Might be worth it for those who have asked about purchasing Minted Seats using traditional fiat currencies.

I really like seeing the "Ordinals" project grow.  It shows that it is possible to run a decentralized community organization (or collection) on Bitcoin's blockchain.  While I still feel there is much work to be done on the development of that project, it does give me hope that one day we too could be a decentralized organization on the blockchain.  I think not having any one person in control of this project would be a positive thing and maybe would allow it to grow as it was meant to instead of being so dependent on a handful of individuals who let's face it, won't live forever.  If you haven't looked into Ordinals, I would recommend taking a look.

I ask because when I use the links in the OP - I am not finding any distributions to my seats. Maybe I am missing something then - I see where the seats got distributions up to a point but not after.  

No one is going out of their way to cause trouble - you just hate to be held accountable or to answer to the very people who made you a millionaire unless they kiss your ass.

Personally, I think you should be charged with theft and embezzlement and rot your ass behind bars but Theymos left it calling you - what was it? "slimey" or something like that?

You have made a fortune off the very people you then shit on - many times saying how you are a millionaire. Maybe you should change your attitude.

so for your links in OP.

1. nastyfans bitcoin analyzer - I enter my seats addy and get a usd amount and then can click the address to see the total sats for that seat --- great that works fine.

2. a link to mint.json - this shows the same amounts as above --- great works fine.

3. historic distribution list - shows the distributions being made --- great works fine.

ok now lets see my question:

1. can someone point me to the area where it shows the distributions to our seats?

I see no link to this data.  This is what I have asked for numerous times and each time you have sent me the links to the 3 specified above and none of them answer to my question.  You then call me a spreader of FUD, you accuse me of trying to cause issues etc etc etc

no one needs to do that, you do it yourself.

So maybe it is somewhere in this long ass thread but if so obviously I don't see it or have missed it or misunderstood it - now instead of typing your same canned fucking responses - how about answering the damn question. And maybe there is a link to what I am asking but if so, you have never pointed it out as the only ones specifically given to me are the 3 I mentioned above.

what I want to see (if its available) is how much from each distribution went to my seats. Let's use the latest distribution from your link:

526,2023-01-08 20:28:14,0.00000012,26907,771019,f9894cc0782e24b19828012fa26b5c840a71e04b322ae77f8c47fc14f573db12,0,0.00112624

is it the 0.00000012 per seat?

EDIT: if so, then I have to trust that correct?

I guess I am looking for something that has:

seat, starting balance, contribution/distribution amt, ending balance

does that exist anywhere?

secondary edit - if I use the date my seats were minted and then use that value per seat for every distribution after the seat was minted, it comes up with a different value - one actually quite a bit lower than what the site shows.

This is another reason why I have asked if there is a file or w/e that shows each distribution to each seat.


another edit: adding OG's response to me - guess he didnt want to put it here - would show his true colors. I guess he took me off of block for a short bit - long enough to send me this

A lot of effort is made to make sure that data is readily available for those that seek it. I give links to this data in the OP. It pains me when people want to go out of their way to try and cause trouble for this project, pretending they have some great knowledge of some behind the scenes scam, and they haven’t even glanced at the OP or looked at the data they’ve been making claims to have superior knowledge of.

TL;DR
The original post on this thread has lots of useful information. Don’t feed the trolls.
