110K... WOW, I need to invest in a real mining rig... I've been mining with crappy gear for almost 2 months, and even bought a modest amount, and I'm at all of 25K...

Example from Crypty chatbox:
Headless604: OFFICIAL GLD PUMP: 7p.m. EST / 6p.m. CST USA: GET IN BEFORE THE FUN BEGINS!
At present that's 90 min from now, and GLD is already up 30%, easy to get burned with the pump, but fun none-the-less...
(I, myself, am not going to sell, but I'm enjoying the ride)

For those who trade...
Headless604 on cryptsy, who was one of the folks "pumping" up IFC, has stated he's going to start pumping GLD tonight.
If he is successful (with the pump/dump thing it's always a gamble), we should see big gains in the price for GLD in LTC.

WOW, I'm overwhelmed and encouraged by the strong response!
Yep, that's me... and oh god yea, disconnected/stale all the time...
As for the connection working/reconnect not working thing, that's common with TCP based services... You establish a persistent connection, kinda like a phone call. If the server is running out of resources and hits a known limit of some kind, current connections keep running (poorly, thus the urge for users to disco), new connections just get rejected.
That's part of what has me worried about this idea... Simply put, cheap hosting doesn't come with a lot of machine. For example, the ISP I'm using for CoinMon is $8/month making that site a fairly cheap toy.
So, my $8 buys me a VM with 2 core, 2 TB bandwidth, just 20G of disk, and ONLY 512M of RAM... I'm hesitant to build a pool with that sort of hosting if all I'm going to accomplish is a pool that re-creates the problems of the existing pools, or chews up so much bandwidth I end up paying huge unexpected ISP bills for bandwidth overage charges. So I've just gotta build some idea of what exactly I'm getting myself into...

seems ive seen you in vircur, do you get disconnected alot? im not sure but it seems to "hold" a worker open? but gets disconnected and dont allow reconnection.

I actually love the idea of building a pool.
I'm nearing the end of what I had in mind to start with for the network monitoring thing, and I've seriously been considering a pool next...
I have a few logistical questions to solve first, and I'm still not exactly "done" with CoinMon...
I need to re-write some of the existing logic for resource efficiency, and I'm looking to add block count ,coin volume, marketcap, and last trade volume to the coins/exchanges... aside from having a real job, that'll all likely take me about a week'ish... From there, I've been looking to start something new...
So, what kind of pool do folks want?
PPLNS (like vircur)?
or PPS (like cryptocoinmine)?
or something else entirely?
Also, does anyone know how much real bandwidth a hash eats? does that change based on difficulty, etc.? (I'm going to start packet capture/analysis on a machine that's mining, BUT, if someone can save me the trouble...
) Hosting costs USD (at least to start), thus I need to have a "general idea" of how many terabytes of data I'm going to burn, and how quickly/much it needs to be able to scale.

Yep, software compiled 32bit will run on a 64bit OS, but not the other way around...
BUT, obviously better to run 64bit whenever available.
here's my build..
here's the official build...
Also, as the distribution is in a tarball format rather than a package (i.e. - .deb or .rpm), debian/ubuntu/mint/etc. vs. RHEL/centos/fedora/etc. doesn't matter, all the binaries will run on either, so I would leave debian out of it, just say Linux32 vs Linux64...
So, I'm not sure where to put this.. but, for now, here's a link my 32bit build in case someone else needs it...

Not so much for Linux, as it's basically just a binary and/or sourcecode...
Sooo, taken from my old 6.4.0 build, I am using the following fairly short config...

« on: August 02, 2013, 02:41:22 AM »
Hiya folks... any chance for another look? puhleeze!?!
I wouldn't call it done.. I would say it's taking shape though.
BTW, I really wish more of the GoldCoin pools had public API's... if they don't make it available, I have to scrape the pages, and that's a royal pain in the ass.
Sooo, any love, hate, opinion, request, etc. etc.. would be greatly appreciated!
For anyone who just saw dots and said "huh?"
1. go to http://coinmin.netspecto.com
2. Click on the dots/faces for metrics that interest you...
3. Then click on the graphs too... AND the magnifying glass next to the graphs...
4. And, kapow! Historical context for a variety of useful metrics has been achieved!!
*historical context starts for each object at the date/time monitoring for that object began*
Or, I'm just spinning my wheels here... which is ok I guess...
Thanks in advance!

Technical Discussion / Re: A thought or two about the new Linux wallet
« on: August 01, 2013, 01:05:56 AM »Yes we need a MAC client. People are asking about a MAC client.
Unfortunately I have no Mac, so I'm not sure how much I can help there, I don't think I can cross-compile Mac software from a Linux box.. (even though MacOS is really BSD under the hood).
So, unless someone wants to give me ssh access to a Mac, it's not really something I can help with.. I'd be really happy to help with the Linux stuff though...
I said this somewhere else on this forum... but at the risk of being repetitive.. I'm running a 32bit version of the wallet that I had to compile myself...
Now that's really not a problem for me, but, i thought the user-experience could be improved, and if I had no real IT skills, I may not have understood why the app wouldn't run (it's not labled 64bit), and likely would have given up and just started looking at a different coin.
Now pair that with the download page for Ubuntu, which offers 32bit as the default download. http://www.ubuntu.com/download/desktop (Ubuntu by FAR the largest installed desktop Linux distro userbase)
Understand, I really like the software, and I love the potential of the coin, and I'm happy to offer any help I can provide... I'm not much of a C guy, but I've been engineering UNIX and Linux solutions, and writing lots of interpreted code for the last 15 years, I can certainly be very useful for this or other things. (I should compile cpuminer for Solaris, and see how many hashes/sec I can pull from a M9000, I know it's CPU mining, but it's 256 SPARC64v7 cores! Oh, wait, I like my career, nevermind)

Technical Discussion / A thought or two about the new Linux wallet
« on: July 31, 2013, 07:10:54 PM »
Firstly... Nice work folks, the new wallet looks/works great! (thus far)
Annnnd, on to my nitpicking...
I think the way the new wallet is packaged (Linux version) is confusing unless you have certain skill-set. While I have these skills, it's really not about technical people, is it? I think it's in our collective best interest to woo new users, thus in our collective best interest to make it as easy as reasonably possible to install/run goldcoin...
I would suggest we make it one of the platform goals to: "Enable a new, novice user to install/run the wallet on any "reasonable" system with a minimum of effort/understanding in under 10 min."
Here are some suggestions toward that goal... (This is Linux/UNIX centric, sorry, I don't really run Windows.)
The Linux/FOSS user community is big, and generally very helpful in a technical sense, if there's even a chance we can gain visibility and a good number of users from that world, it would be a GREAT benefit to our community/economy here. AND, the benefits of inclusion of the Mac users seems obvious...
Anyway, just some thoughts..
Zuck

Here are some suggestions toward that goal... (This is Linux/UNIX centric, sorry, I don't really run Windows.)
- Unless there's a legal reason why not, MacOS binaries need to be offered along with the Windows and Linux ones. There's a MASSIVE amount of Macs out there, and most computer users of any system will click somewhere else before they dive into compiling their own software...
- I would think it's prudent to either label the current Linux wallet (6.9.3) as 64bit only, or better yet, to also include a 32bit binary in the tar file. Either solution is trivial, and I can't be the only person who runs my wallets on an old box, so while offering source code is great (REALLY); nothing gives the warm and fuzzy to a new user like an easy install, and it's new users we need to attract...
- For even a better/complete Linux solution (although there's more effort involved here, and getting code approved by others), how would folks feel about spinning up some deb and rpm files, and seeing if we can get ourselves added to the debian/ubuntu/mint and rhel/fedora/suse/centos repositories directly? The complete install instructions (for Linux) would become something like "sudo apt-get install goldcoin-wallet" or "sudo yum install goldcoin-wallet" (also really easy upgrades along those same lines). Install instructions/simplicity like that would really set GoldCoin's Linux offering apart from any other altcoin...
The Linux/FOSS user community is big, and generally very helpful in a technical sense, if there's even a chance we can gain visibility and a good number of users from that world, it would be a GREAT benefit to our community/economy here.
