Re: [ANN] The First Litecoin PPS Pool (litecoinpool.org)

Would you ever consider adding a 'solo' pool to litecoinpool.org? Nothing fancy, just a simple pool where people could solo mine and basically play a lottery. ckpool.org has one for Bitcoin at solo.ckpool.org and I thought you could do similar.

Thanks for your input. I'm personally open to the idea, but there doesn't seem to be a lot of demand (only a couple of people have asked for it over the past few years), and I'm not sure it would be high enough to justify the effort. I'll think about it. If anybody else would like such a service, please let me know (either on here or via email) so that I can gauge interest.

Any more consideration on this?

We haven't received feedback from many interested miners since your post. We might still go ahead with this, but it's certainly not taking priority at the moment. So far I have spent some time thinking about how to best implement this, but I haven't written any actual code yet.

I understand.

While stuck at home due to the virus, I was cleaning up the garage and came across another old Scrypt ASIC - thats what made me think of this again.  I likely wouldnt run them right now anyway due to summer coming, but wintertime would just add extra heat to the house and be easier to justify the cost.

2.5 PH SHA
45,000 MH ETH
17,000 MH SCRYPT



Impressive, thanks for sharing!

I know its a "Bitcoin rigs" thread but Id be curious to see your ETH setup. Thats quite a lot of GPUs.

Hi guys, i'm not in the mining worl anymore since 5 or 6 months... Right now i see all this pictures of this big guys and their colosus mining rigs..
I can't stop thinking that mining is not profitable anymore.
With this prices, if you buy 6000 usd of bitcoins instead of a miner (KNC) you get real profit when the prices go up again.
Im very sab with this cause honestly i love to make money with all my GPUs. I think the industry f*cked all of us.
Thanks for still supporting Bitcoin and litecoin, and giving us more and more security.

I dont think mining is any different today than its ever been. Its almost always been better to just buy coins rather than mine, this hasnt changed.

Im not taking sides on this issue as I have no facts in either direction. But the way I look at it is most hardware is going to drop in value a large amount after 1-2 years and anything after 2 years it is pretty much worthless. I used to be an overclocking nut as well as a Folding@home nut. I have run a fair amount of hardware out of spec and at some pretty high temps with only a few failures. If I can get 2+ years out of it Im happy because after that time no one wants it anyway...

Just my opinion.  Cool

*proud*

No mining rigs plugged it yet, obviously.

wow, that pic took long to load.

What are we looking at?

NZ hosting :/. Raspberry Pi.

I need to get a case for mine. I had some old ram sinks I attached for better (un-needed) cooling but it has just been sitting otherwise.

Have you read what the Tritium release brings to the Nexus block-chain?

A completely new code base, written from the ground up.  Not a fork of an existing coin like 99% of the other crypto projects out there.

Signature chains, which essentially removes the need for a wallet.dat or long keys to remember/copy and paste.  Simply log in via a username, password and pin from anywhere.  Just like an online banking app.

Create namespaces so you can send/receive funds to meaningful and easy to remember addresses such as JoeBlogs:Savings, or JoeBlogs:Holidayfund

A register based contract engine that can process between 2k and 25k contracts per second.

API's built in for token creation/distribution, asset tracking and finance.

These are just a few of the things that are designed to help mass adoption, and this is stage 1 of 3.  Plenty more to come in the future Anime, and Obsidian updates.



Just because the price has dropped like the rest of the market since 2017, doesn't mean there is nothing going on in the background.   Nexus is alive, and offering some leading edge technology for block-chain development.


Good things happening! Smiley

Honestly, my reason for reaching out is trust. Most people who choose a solo pool will either have MASSIVE hashrate or such a tiny amount they will never ever hit a block. Of those two, a majority will fall into the second group. With a tiny amount of hashrate, the odds of hitting a block are minimal and it would be easy for a pool operator to keep the rewards themselves and claim bad luck for the miner. I trust that you wouldnt do this so your pool would be one, if not the only that I would actually use. Looking back, my first payout from litecoinpool was almost 7 years ago and over that time you have earned my trust. Thanks for your consideration and your work for this community!

Pooler, thanks for maintaining this pool for so long. Glad to see it still running strong.

I wonder what Feathercoin is working on right now, i havent seen a lot of them recently. hopefully they're keeping their heads down during this bear market and bring out something new when it picks back up

I agree on that. I think it still has a fan-base. As soon as they bring out something new, I think the value will increase again quite fast. Untill then, we know what to do Smiley

v0.17 was just released. The dev team is active and working. Dont count Feathercoin out, good things are coming.
