I would fully support starting this again!  I was very disappointed when it died.

2% is not "insane"...

In the current system, it kind of is.  The average is significantly lower, and as such is pretty crazy compared to best options.

I've already made a few investments in this game, but it seems like it's been slow lately.  What does everyone think?  Is it worth it to keep investing or has the game seen better days?

My deposit isn't showing up after 10+ confirmations.  Could you check on your system please.  Also, have you considered adding a note to the FAQ section regarding how many confirmations are required for a deposit to be credited?

Has anyone created a definitive guide on setting up to make money with this system by using Bitcoin Core?  I'm really interested in becoming an investor, but need more information!

Do you think there's any way you'd release the pool code as open source on GitHub so that we can all see how our favourite thing for all those years actually worked?

So what pool will most people move to - for many of us, BTCGuild was the one and only place to mine.  Which pool is second best or even comes close?

Eligius is pretty great, I used it as a backup pool but will now use it as my primary and maybe GHash.io as a backup.

You know your pool is pretty great when there are over 400 pages of comments.

Best of luck to you in your future endeavours.  I have been a supporter since the beginning, and appreciate everything you've done.

Keep us up to date on your new projects!

Does anyone know of actual pool that allows this duplicate share submission?

i dont thing that there is stupid enought pools that allow you to do that, why will they allow you to do that? they will loose money if they do that man...

edited: just to quote this, was a better reply than mine Tongue

There is no public disclosure here. You are talking about client software aren't you? No pool software is stupid enough to allow you to submit duplicates and get paid for them and there is plenty of free and open pool software code (mine included) to see. The pools will just rightly reject duplicates.

Just because it's stupid doesn't mean that there aren't people stupider than the reference client [or similar] programmers who allowed this bug to exist.  Looking at some of the big bugs in software throughout history (for example, gambling places allowing double spends, and ultimately going bankrupt because so many people double-spent their servers), it's pretty funny to see the major epic fails.

Step #2 - Convert to Brainfuck for fun because you know why not.

Are you talking about brainfuck the language http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brainfuck?  Is there some kind of relevance for bumping this 2 week old thread?  Do you actually want code for generating keys in brainfuck or where you just bumping your post count?

No, I actually want someone to convert it to that language because not only would it be a pretty great challenge, but Brainfuck can easily be implemented on an Arduino (or literally any other platform), so it could actually serve to be a very useful function.

I don't know anything about programming for Arduino, but I'm really surprised if you can't compile C code for it.  And since you already have all the bitcoin core, there's also a libbitcoin in C, don't you already have what you need to convert keys on arduino?  Also, isn't arduino just an arm7?  Can't you run python on linux on it?  Sorry for my ignorance.

You are somewhat right, but it's not a 64-bit machine like Bitcoin Core is meant to run on though.  It's not quite that easy, because it's memory is on the order of 16 KB.

Brainfuck on the other hand, is SOOO easy to implement if all you need to do is generate an address.

If it's SOOO easy, maybe you can do it yourself if you check out those python methods in that library I linked to above.  I've never written a line of brainfuck in my life so I don't think I can help you.

Cheers!

I didn't say coding in Brainfuck was easy...it's maybe the most confusing thing I've ever tried to do (but there are some real pros in it).  I just said that implementing an interpreter in it is really easy in just about any other language.

Step #2 - Make this so that it write the data in the OP_RETURN, where it's supposed to go for easy debugging purposes (for other developers), or just so that you can leave a message in the way the blockchain in meant to be used for leaving messages.

Love what you guys are doing though, neat project!

If you're still around, a better idea would be to include a "total received".  I have all the addresses set up for forwarding so that if I catch any of them with bitcoins in them, I'll receive them.

However, it would be cool to see which addresses have received the most over time.
