Re: [5000 TH] Slush's Pool (mining.bitcoin.cz); TX FEES + VarDiff

A quick question to Slush's. I am thinking of giving up mining against your pool. Nothing personal, just with only 2Ghz, it's never really going to be worth the hassle. I have 0.00308557 BTC reward in my account. Any way I can get it out? I would like to have something to show for my time and effort.

Thanks.

What if you change your payment threshold to 0.00308557

Would that work? Or is there a minimum threshold?

Also - if you are in NZ I could sell you a 180GH Antminer S1 for cheap

then you could mine up a little faster.

Then I guess Slush gets to keep anything that get mined and abandoned. Probably a nice little earner.

You realize .01 the minimum is only around $5. USD?

Hope you would further realize the difficulty in getting that 0.01 BTC (approx $5.93 USD today) converted to "cash" when the typical minimum Conversion amount is 0.1 BTC (approx $59.30 USD). Your $1.83 isn't gonna make Slush break a sweat. He already get 2% of every block resolved (roughly $300 USD) so he smiles everyday on average 6 times per day, and breaks out into serious laughter when the "luck" is running high. But then of course he does have operating expenses that I wouldn't even want to ponder............... so, eh!

Still there should be a manual payout even with a large fee. It adds up, slush laughs harder, but its really only proper. Some of us want our .009.

Also it costs me to get the .009 and if by chance BIT goes Berkshire Hathaway and its worth 500k in ten years .... which it must since BIT is limited quantity or it will die. If we were regulated this would not be, so to prevent regulation is self regulation. It hasn't worked on wall street if it can't work here I am sad, this is the start of a new economy but only if we don't go wall street.
