We all know that the Multipool's going to do great things for BlackCoin, once it's released. However, I don't think everyone realizes how much of a difference it's going to make.
The numbers thrown out for yesterday's (March 19, 2014) mining ranged from 10GH/s to nearly 400GH/s. It's quite safe to assume that the massive dropoff near the end was caused by the frontend issues the site was having (for those that weren't there, the miner pages were entirely inaccessible for the latter portion of the "launch"). Because of that, I'm going to make a somewhat conservative (depending on how you look at it) estimation of 200GH/s if the pool was as polished as the new version is reported to be.
If that 200GH/s was maintained for a solid 24 hour period, that would net somewhere in the neighborhood of $500,000 and $1,000,000 worth of altcoins, according to
http://www.coinwarz.com/cryptocurrency. Let that sink in for a second. BlackCoin's current market cap is roughly $1,300,000. That's a
ton of buy orders.
Not just that...
I'm not sure if the devs will pursue the sha256 coins market...that will bring a whole gazillion hashes from BTC Asics to Scrypt ie. Blackcoin...
BlackCoin is perfect candidate for that and if it works it will become one of an important coins out there..
Despite what happened with Black Hole Multipool, I'm still giving the credit to Radio for what he have done....building his pool from scratch in a record time and for the idea itself....
guy is a genius but he might not be intimately familiar with cryptos or didn't expect such a hype and didn't think about forking coins, etc.....
On top of that and according of what he said and I believe him...he did all that for free....
Big thx to him
