TMAN,

Many of us here chose to associate with OgNasty, NastyMining, and Nastyfans knowing full well that bitcoin was an experiment into uncharted territory.  We also knew that NastyMining was also an experiment on top of the bitcoin experiment and that risk was involved.  Having full knowledge of the risks with bitcoin and NastyMining, we chose to exercise the right of association and did so.  Others having the same information chose to exercise their right of disassociation.  (Simple and beautiful isn’t it!)

Your opinion and points have been made very clear.  Thank you for your warnings that risk is involved with investing in this experiment.  We understood this before you were here and we continue to understand it now.

If each of us, including OgNasty, could have predicted the future, different choices would have been made.  Greater profits would have been obtained and NastyMining could have made a greater influence on Bitcoin.  Yet, there have been profits and some influence on Bitcoin has been made.  But we can’t predict the future, and the present is what it is, and the future is still to be discovered…

I am glad that OgNasty and nonnakip are still running NastyMining and NastyFans. I have always had quick, detailed and open discussion to any question or comment I have sent them.   I choose to associate with them because I am still excited about this experiment and curious as to where this journey will go.  This has been going on before the GLBSE days and that says a lot about the seriousness and credibility of this operation.
Also remember, that the accumulation of bitcoin is only one aspect of this endeavor.  There are other reasons that people value and chose to associate with NastyMining.

It seems very obvious you choose not to associate yourself with NastyMining.  Rather than keep repeating yourself and trolling this thread, I would recommend exercising your rights of disassociation and distance yourself from something you think is worthless and spend time pursing those things of value to you.

Best of luck to you.


OgNasty,
I am wondering if a chart that shows the work done on the exercise bike would increase the amount of time spent using it. Having to report my exercise to someone makes me double or triple my efforts.  Maybe if all us Fans were watching and encouraging you, you would quickly be ready to ride in a Marathon representing NastyMining! 

are you trying to say that a turbine, a shit ton of solar and a powerball doesn't power 1 single miner?

and your IPO raised funds in BTC not USD dick.

1) The NastyMining “IPO” raised $326.48. The 700+ BTC is what NastyFans has distributed since then, which doesn’t include the GLBSE NastyMining distributions, so the actual number is higher.
2) In no way are our green energy sponsorships a detriment to seat owners.
3) Our green energy production still requires me to subsidize our electrical usage out of my own pocket. I’m happy to do it, because I enjoy the friends I’ve made and I believe in our future.
4) We’re running more than 1 miner.

Don’t forget the wind turbine.  

This is funny... so you got solar... a powewall and now a Bike... (we all know you need to lose a few Kg Tubby).... yet this asset that had an IPO and raised 700+ BTC has 1 miner?

As a Member of this Glorious loss making asset, It would be interesting to know how many miners you own yourself OG. Also are the above Items being used for personal gain? IE, do they run your own electricity at home? are you running your own miners with these items?

it does seem to me that this is more of a lifestyle business for you, as in it gives you a better lifestyle at the detriment of people who have purchased seats, either at IPO or along the way.

has anyone other than Matt actually had a financial benefit???

It was marked up like it had been through testing...  It might have been something that occurred during shipping.  I could probably pitch a fit with Bitmain and get a coupon, but I'm not sure how much benefit that would bring.  I've covered the shipping costs out of my own pocket, so the negative impact is somewhat limited.  Mostly I'm glad I still have my eyebrows.

I assume they do not offer any kind of compensation for the gross incompetence?  You would think that receiving a unit from the warranty team, it would have been tested prior to shipping out?

Distribution 254 is posted. nastyfans appreciates the donations.

Last 4 weeks distribution NastyPoP payout rates (vs. expected):
window149 0.00000000 BTC per TH/s (0.0%)

I received our S9 from warranty repair today...  When I turned it on the controller immediately caught fire!  I haven't seen that happen since I had BFL gear.  It is now all boxed up and will be headed back for another warranty repair in the morning.

You're kidding me..... :-)

Be sure to check out the latest addition to the NastyShop.  NastyMining Bitcoin Wallets!

Sponsorship Expansion!



Gunbot has expanded upon their previous sponsorship of the Tesla Powerwall 2 by purchasing a man-powered generator for NastyMining!  This professional grade eco-cycle is built for commercial fitness facilities and is a great addition to our green energy arsenal as we become a solar/wind/man powered Bitcoin mining operation.

I don't have anything to mine Monero with currently.  Dash would be our closest option and we should have a D3 miner in about a month.  Bitmain emailed today that our S9 should be on the way back shortly.  I also have another sponsorship announcement to make along with the unveiling of our new coin line this week.  Lots of good things happening!

Is there an option to mine Monero with the hardware we have? It seems to me as one of the very few worthwhile altcoin projects!

Poll sounds good to me, been a while since we've run a poll! 

I'm not making any more purchases until we get our S9 back from warranty repair and we have our D3 up and running.  I am a bit curious if fans want to continue mining BTC with our altcoin miners to increase distributions, or if we should be saving the LTC & Dash instead.  Perhaps a poll is in order?

Nice!  Happy to see the new hardware chugging along, always hate getting the things initially stabilized with new hardware.   Are we anticipating picking up any More L3+'s based on what we're seeing so far? 

Also for some of the comments earlier concerning mismanagement - I'd just like to note as a long term member of NastyFans, I've not once had trouble or concerns in OgNasty's transparency or management decisions.  He's always been very open to addressing specific questions or concerns via direct messages.   I think there's been some frustration over folks who have invested in seats via bitcoin who have since seen bitcoin perform at higher levels than what the return they received from NastyFans.  To this I'd also note I "invested" 3 BTC in some alpaca socks many years ago, at the time it was an equitable trade made for something of value to me.  Yes, sitting on it may have been the wiser move, but as a NastyFan, I've invested in a long term contribution to the security and stability of the block chain.   The other thing for me, is that I've since long ago stepped out of the mining space personally, relying on folks like Nonnakip and OgNasty to take care of the day to day operations, and they've also continued to make the investments in new hardware and setting up the infrastructure to support all of this - and for this I'm very grateful.    We've been through a few rounds of discussions concerning management, and while I think it's important that there is accountability, this isn't and has never been a fly-by-night operation to fleece members - if it was it would have shut down years ago like so many other mining groups.   

The us-east02 node is offline right now.  I was told recently that it would be getting migrated to a faster connection in the future, so that is my best guess as to the cause.

Is there a NastyPoolNode/Server Down/Interrupted or Something?

Your best source would be here: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/P2Pool
or the thread here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/1500-th-p2pool-decentralized-dos-resistant-hop-proof-pool-18313

NastyPool is a p2pool node that offers the NastyPoP payout, which combines all participating miners and gives them an equal share of the reward to lower variance for smaller miners.

Thank you Nonakip for the response and your time on this matter.

Please note "expected payout" also appears here (i'll check the other pages and advise):

https://nastyfans.org/miners/

This is an exact copy of content:

NastyPool miners

This page lists the Bitcoin miners active on NastyPool over the past 24 hours. It shows the hashrate of each miner and marks accepted P2Pool shares. It shows the payout address and expected payout to each miner for the current P2Pool mining round. It shows the payout method chosen by the miner.

I am understanding that the Hash rate is low these days, I was only comparing my first 2 months of experience with NastyFans and/or P2Pool, with the last couple months where the "expected payout" seemed to CLIMB and then HOLDS whereas for the last couple of months, it hasn't climbed much at all, and it drops significantly.

i'm in full agreement with "not looking to make a fast buck" @ NastyFans or P2Pool, or Bitcoin Mining in general, i'm just trying to learn
how this 'all works' and get the proper perception via NastFans/P2Pool and you are helping to do that, thank you.

By any chance, is there anything available 'out there' where it gives a a visual as to how the whole block chain, and miners/farms, and blocks, and Block Rewards work on a Global/Pool/Node basis?

Thanks again as always to You, OgNasty, and NastyFans!
