The DOGE difficulty and estimated % change are off.
Diff is stuck at 890.21 on the page, and the estimated change incorrectly shows about -75%.
It might have to do with the recent hard fork that DOGE had.

Thanks for the otherwise good & reliable tool!

There was a hard fork, I need to update and patch the newest Dogecoin build.  It will probably be a  couple days.

Ready to add some more scrypt coins.  Any suggestions of the most popular?  Is there even value in listing coins that do a diff adjust every block, or is the block number/current diff something you would just view elsewhere anyway?

Taking suggestions, under active development now.  Thanks Smiley



edit:
I was thinking of a matrix of coins on the left and exchanges across the top and fill in all the prices and compare profit percentage to litecoin.

Also thinking that maybe only the total hashrate of the coin is interesting and the hash rate of pools should just go away completly.

I just added dogecoin to http://allchains.info to estimate difficulty change and measure network speed.  Can give me feedback in #scryptguild on freenode.

alexrossi, look at the Measured column.  You will see that because of the work I am doing right now on the server that only a block or two have been measured (a fast block apparently).  It will average out in a few blocks but will not be truely stable for a day or so as I continue to refine how it works.  The goal is to make is easier to add new coins.

edit:
fixed now, boss

I am new to cryptocurrency and because they are fascinating, I was trying to understand how they work: How is the total network hashrate calculated? Or this info is stored on the network somewhere (i think not in blockchains but between peers?) . What I initially thought it should be is to 'reverse' it from the difficulty value but some instances shown me that it might not be true?

Code:
$total_ghs      =  ($gh_per_share * $cur_diff * ($blocks_elapsed / $sec_elapsed)

Your new software on LTC isn't updating.

Yep, will look into it when I am able.   Before, I had patched the *coind files to output the blocks as they are found to a file which my allchains scripts monitor and update from.  I changed it so that it launches a python script which directly connects to the running allchains scripts.   Anyway.. the point is that eventually there will be a version that auto updates as blocks are found instead of the 2 minute interval... and that I will be able to use the same .patch on all the block chains... and more easily add support new coins.

I want it to be configurable, so a classic allchains for people who don't want more coins, then maybe allchains.info?doge=1?trc=1   or something in the link to choose what coins you want displayed.

Sp0tter:
Your allchains.info Difficulty and Hash Rates sections are broken, at least with respect to LTC.

It should be fixed now.  I also added the market price for Coinbase for btc.

Feathercoin does not have significant trade volume to make it meaningful...  and I do not support the coins advantages

Updated the calc from Mh/s to Gh/s and added an extra decimal on the coins per day on the calc page.  Thanks superfastk for this suggestion.

I put in a refund request today on the website, will update and let everyone know how that goes.  (Ordered 1 25gh/s kit + 7 h-boards for ~49 btc.)

Can I inquire why you would want a refund?
My guess is that he doesn't believe that 200GH received at the end of October will return 49btc in its useful life.
My calculations are very rough, but I get 54 total BTC... so a very slight profit but risky.  If BTC price can get up a bit higher, I am interested in the october delivery, but with current prices, the risk/reward just isn't there for me yet.
My calculations may be ridiculous though as I am forecasting 130M on Nov. 1st.

I am forecasting ~150M on Nov. 1st with an avg of 20% diff increase per cycle until then.  With that model,  200 GH/s at 49 btc never pays off.  What might happen though is in a month for now diff is so high that Bitfurry slashes prices for current orders to keep everyone from backing out, and then I cry because I lost my place in line Smiley

+1 for their refund policy.

I posted the spreadsheet I have been using to look at profitability / ROI on asics.

Download it, enter your gh/s, and then put a 0 in the last column (Bitcoin) on the period which you will receive your asic.  
By my calcs, at 20% diff increase each period,  200 gh/s worth of October 31st BitFurry will never pay off....  comments welcome.

Hey Sp0tter,  please respond to my pm as the post office has sent the package back to you due to wrong address put on package. 

It was sent to the correct address and returned to me as undeliverable because his name was not on the buzzer.
Reshipped to an alternate location as soon as it was returned and we're all good.

Thanks psjw4450 Smiley

Any personal warranty for these items?

Nope.  They probably have some manufacturing warranty.. but not my problem..  I just guarantee that they work when you get them.
