GoldMine P2POOLs was created around the beginning of 2014....

Many miners have made ALOT of coins using it....

It turned out recently that the Server had a defective AMD GPU ( R9-290 series )
and was randomly freezing up the server when GPU mining on same server....

At first I though it was the Power Supply...  but turned out to be the GPU!

The R9-290 was removed last week, and the server has not froze once since.

Apparently, the r9 series were rushed out of China with defects

With the defective r9-290 removed, and no mining on the p2pools server,
the pools are now stable and reliable.

and BTW, you will NOT want to miss the Fair Launch of PurpleCoin,
it is being extensively tested BEFORE release to ensure quality
