http://gld.cloudmines.net - New GoldCoin Pool

[CircuitSix]

This pool just went up a few days ago, it is hosted on a cloud server and resources can be allocated on the fly. This should ensure that there is minimum delay and will be able to handle rapid growth if needed. Of course this is a new pool so there are only a few workers at this time, hopefully some of you will give us a hand in getting it thriving.

i joined the pool but everything i mine ends up getting rejected :/

[CircuitSix]

what settings are you using and what is your hardware?

[madTRiiKs]

im using bfgminer running on my mac mini. i dont know why its getting rejected, when ever i mine btc and nmc it works fine

[CircuitSix]

Im not too familiar with mac mini but this is something you could try

BTC and NMC are both SHA256 while GLD is Scrypt, I am suspecting there may be a config problem.

[CircuitSix]

This may actually be better suited, you need to turn the scrypt option on:

run cpuminer like this (replace username, worker and password with your own)
minerd.exe --algo=scrypt --url=stratum+tcp://gld.cloudmines.net:3333 --userpass=username.worker:password

Thanks dille71. Cloudmines is a stratum only server.

Started mining with your pool last night to try it out. Seemed to work great all night, even found 2 blocks. Hoping to find many more with you guys, thanks. I also set up a small amount to go to you as a donation, Its not gonna amount to a ton but hopefully it is helpful.

Welcome to the pool paaco! Our pool size has been growing in size quite a bit since the 4th of December, there is a good community around this coin and we are just glad to be part of it. The donation always helps. I plan on only keeping enough of the profits to pay for the pool, the rest gets returned to the community by means of giveaways and improvements to the site. Every donation helps no matter how big or small!

Hi!
Just started mining in your pool about two hours ago.
There are few goldcoin pools, so hope your one will grow uo strong and efficient.

Just a silly question:
i started mining, as i said, a couple of hours ago, and i can read in the stats i got 1800 valid shares.
Why i can't still see anything in the "unconfirmed" box ?
I know the blocks have to be validated for me to get the "confirmed" status, but how long does it normally take to see the "unconfirmed" amount ?

Thanks!

[CircuitSix]

Unconfirmed will appear once a block has been found, this sometimes takes a while but we are averaging about 1 block every hour or two. This will generate 45 coins and they will be distributed to all miners who participated and the amount will depend on what percentage of shares they submitted.

Hope this helps and we are glad to have you!

--Edit: Just checked and it looks like you have been included in the last block that was found, you should be showing an unconfirmed balance right now.

Thanks for the answer and the explanation.
Everything fine, i noticed right after a couple of hours coins started to appear in the unconfirmed box, and later in the confirmed one.
Wish the best to the pool, and hope i can contribute a bit.
