The thing I've noticed about trading is that it's for tiny volumes. The price is so volition because the buying and selling of small amounts (less than 10 VTC) is allowing a few people to determine the market.
I'm guessing when the right people start buying all of these tiny orders are going to be eaten up quite quickly.

+Low statum diff
+Low fee for manual and autopayout
+now fee for launch pool
+Physical server
+Located in a datacenter in France ( Good for all EuropaRegion )

Any other vertans here having problems with their cryptsy vtc deposits?
12 confirmations and it's not even showing as pending
Coinedup may take 30 seconds to load a page on the screen but at least they have their deposits and withdrawals on point.

The east node I run had to be restarted, resulting in a new IP. I took the opportunity to relocate it to faster hardware. New address people should use is

Simple example provided on there on how to set cgminer to use a fail over pool in case one goes down.
If your wallet is having trouble getting connected and running, feel free to addnode=vtc-us-east.royalminingco.com:5889

VTCpool not finding blocks anymore? 
February 05, 2014, 04:21:33 PM
Does it always take hours for mined coins to confirm on http://vtc.poolz.net/, or is something broken?
February 05, 2014, 04:17:56 PM
Let me explain. Pool software has a whole set of cron jobs scheduled to run at a regular intervals of time. If even a small error occurs, pool automatically disables corresponding cron job. That's what has happened with vtc.poolz.net, at 6:31 AM EST the following message has arrived:
Error Code E0062
Error Message Block has no share_id, not running payouts
The problem was with the block number 29921. After that, blocks were being found but were invisible because of disabled cron job, responsible for accounting of newly found blocks. I woke up around 11 am, investigated the problem and fixed it. After that I enabled the cron job previously disabled by the pool sw. Blocks found during the time when the cron job was disabled got accounted and paid and now you can see that in fact from 6:30 to 12:11 we found 11 blocks.
Till the last time we had efficiency of 80-95% (means that we managed to find more blocks than we should in average). Last day our pool experienced multiple DDOS attacks (and other Vertcoin pools too). I spent lots of time and almost a whole night trying to mitigate these attacks (currently we have mod_evasive enabled only which helps to some extent), and our pool soon will be moved to a data center with AntiDDOS support. Because of the DDOS attacks our efficiency decreased a little bit, but I hope that we will catch up.
So in reply to the: "I think the big mining rigs have caught up and learned how to compile and tweak Vertminer", I can't say anything about other pools, but this one is not stealing your money for sure. 1% Pool fee gives me a bit more than my mining rig, but I'm spending more time to maintain it, compared to my mining rig. In the last 2 days I upgraded server powers twice - and now pool server's hardware allows to accommodate 5 times more miners than current amount.

Guys, I'm on vtc.poolz.net. They have 10% of the mining power, but haven't found a block in a few hours. Next difficulty is estimated to be 189! Network hash rate is 5.2Ghash/s and climbing, which gives this coin a 10.4Ghash network in LTC Scrypt terms. I think the big mining rigs have caught up and learned how to compile and tweak Vertminer.
Have been with your pool for a while mate and your efforts are greatly appreciated. There have been a few hiccups along the way but most of us understand that this is a novel situation and no crypto-currency has been trouble free. I don't think anyone could name a VC pool that hasn't had issues over the last few days - I personally lost about 60 VTC as orphaned due to the whole wallet/gravity pool change - despite doing everything right. The current issues are more minor and I think it makes sense for everyone to make sure they have fallback pools - I personally use at least 2. Incidentally might help to have a forum to post info for the pool and somewhere to report issues when/if you get a chance. Am not a huge miner but am donating 2% in the hopes it will help to keep you going. All the best and keep up the good work,
Arif.

What's going on with BitcoinTalk, getting ddos'd too?
It's because the launch of Maxcoin was supposed to happen about 45 minutes ago and it is still overloading the [Suspicious link removed]ervers.

Something weird is going on with http://coinmarketcap.com/ and http://www.cryptocoincharts.info/v2/coins/info, VTC's market cap hasn't moved in hours on coinmarketcap.com and the other one is showing 0 USD
Agreed, I don't like that.
Just a guess but those sites were pulling data from coinedup until yesterday.
They would likely have to start pulling from cryptsy now as it will tale the volume from coinedup. So they unplugged coinedup data while they switch over so as not to be giving bad quotes from super thin trade over there.
May I say that collectively you guys really worry too much. There is lots of hiccups but we are in a great spot here. Sit tight and stop sweating the small stuff.

wow such community, very united oh but much dump, ha ha Where is your community now??? price tanked faster than you could say pump and dump.

#GL Vertcoin P2Pool#
http://gl-security.net:9171
Connecting to this P2Pool node:
URL: stratum+tcp://gl-security.net:9171
Username: Your vertcoin address
Password: Can be anything
NOTE!
This P2Pool has an automatic failover -- if one of the servers goes down it will automatically change to an identical, but separate instance. TOTALLY TRANSPARENT TO THE MINER (except maybe a few stale/discarded shares).

vtcpool.co.uk users - I am going to do the following:
- There is going to be a move from pointing to vtcpool.co.uk to pointing to stratum.vtcpool.co.uk, so you will have to reconfigure your miners. Don't do it yet - I will advise later when I have actually finished planning for this.
- p2pool users will similarly need to point their miners at p2pool.vtcpool.co.uk rather than just vtcpool.co.uk, but again, don't change anything yet.
These changes will permit the frontend to be DDoS protected properly.
The whole shebang is going to move to at least one, and possibly a pair of dedicated high-end servers.
Basically, I am going to sort it once and for all.
On the positive side, everything is stable and OK now and has been for some hours. It seems the changes I made have worked, and the pool is coping with the attacks, but I want to put in place measure that protect it against future attacks better, so this kind of remedial work is no longer necessary.
More updates soon once I have a plan put together.
question please chance the Pplns Stats to Prop stats that is way better for all ;-)
thank you
ps i am mining now for two days at your p2p pool but stil no coins recieved stil got nothing in my wallet pffffffff
