https://con.poolers.org Promotions

When I offered 0% fees for the first 20 people attracted many signups but the hashrates have been low and for a 1GH/s network I have realized it is not going to be enough to get started.

So, I have decided to go bigger...

First, I will extend 0% fees for life to the next 50 people that signup and start mining.

I will announce mining contests with different prizes depending on the hashrates we hit and maintain.

If we hit the following hashrates, the prizes for the contest will be as follows:

100 MH/s - Any video game on Steam up to $59.99 gifted to your Steam account.

300 MH/s - Xbox360/Kinect bundle with 4 games

These are just the start. Once this coin has real monetary value and the pool is large I will host many contests with big prizes. I will announce the details of the contests later depending on our sustained hashrate but these are the prizes I am offering for the first contest.

In addition to exciting contests with big prizes, mining at con.poolers.org has other benefits. The other pools have not invested near as much into securing your accounts and coins. Just try putting https at the front of your pools address. If they can't even afford to buy an SSL certificate to encrypt their traffic and verify their identity, how much do you think was put into securing the site?

I don't host pools to make money, I am already well-off financially and don't need the money. I operate at a loss and I do so on purpose. I believe in the idea of unregulated currency and want to see cryptocurrency become mainstream. I don't like day trading coins to turn $20 into $40, I am in this for it to blow up huge. Because of this I am willing to offer prizes like these when I am not even making any money out of it.

I challenge you to show me one other pool that is making 0% fees, investing into real security, and giving away tangible goods rather than coins that may or may not be worth something someday.

Come and mine @ https://con.poolers.org , the only pool where the members benefit more than the pool owner.

Thanks! If everyone that signed up would actually stick around for more than a couple minutes we would actually be doing pretty well. Every time I make a post I get about 15 to 20 more registrations but people are only mining for a few minutes and then leaving. Guys, if you just all start mining together you wont be alone. There have been a lot of registration, now we need active workers =)

I really want to give away those prizes; help me help you.

Yeah, guys, you're not gonna get coins or for the first few minutes (youre just wasting your precious hash & whomever stays reaps the reward) leave it for at least 24h & you'll be getting just as much as any other pool you're using. Right?

^^ Thats right. Now we are getting somewhere. I went to lunch and came back to 7 times the pool hashrate. Bring on some more!

Cmon Over, were having a party Grin
