I'm curious where you pointed your rented power since the only public Testnet mining pool is gone?
I launched my own. It's not expensive in terms of resources and money. If the community needs a pool, I can assemble it and launch it.
But I'm afraid there's not much point, against cpu mining

You would need to mine 40 blocks, and there are 72 blocks made per day... that is asking a lot for a global testing network.
I have already mined 12 blocks. I do not plan to stop.

Open market says you could save 800 perfect minutes for $44.
I understand that it is profitable for you when the testnet is traded. But I do not want to support this dirty business.

You'll be competing against this:
I launched this hack. But unfortunately the CPU miner does not directly support Bitcoind and I have to wrap everything in a separate ckpool

I currently have 5 nodes with different time periods. Blocks are found but unfortunately not sent. Today I will try to change the option for sending them.

It seems to me that the only chance to stop what is happening now on testnet is to lead and distribute for free, thereby devaluing the test coin sales market.
