Better get your coin on the exchanges DEV .. at least before the other copies .. otherwise you will be left behind and we would have wasted our time and effort backing your project

Any update on the mining pool?

Also can we have a detailed analysis of how many coins have been pre-mined/mined/distributed ...

thank you

0.0038 is quite good, my average at the moment is approx 0.0029 daily per machine.

I have quite a few miners connected to Nicehash, overall over past month or so everything has been fine or rather "acceptable". However today there seems to be an issue with their minng stats that don't make sense to me ...

I have Antminer L3+ miners connected, now each miner should be offering at least 500 MH/s ... if I access the miners GUI I am getting this reading on all mners (495-504 MH/s), my dashboard at Nicehash under detailed mining stats show quite a few miners at either very low hasrates or at 0 MH/s and then there are some that are showing 600-700 MH/s the total overall hashrate on the nicehash dashboard is approximtely 25% below what it should be.

Are there any other users having the same problem? .. this sarted after the daily payment 11am (UK Time)

some of us are quietly investing so we can take full advantage of the discounted price

registered and ready to go ... also an exisiting business user of bitspark so can't wait for this to start

I know the procedure to withdraw from my account .. the problem is that there is nothing showing in the balances even after 20 hours of mining

I remember someone mentioning in this thread that they were using Hash-to-coins for mining alt coins using the L3+ ... I've been mining BCC through H2C since yesterday and although their dashboard says I should be making way more than just mining LTC .. I have yet to receive any payment/coins from them for past 20 hours of mining (approx 12GH of mining power) ... anyone else having issues with them??

Being in UK I work in GBP rather than USD

I have had my miners running properly now for 2 weeks continuous all of them are linked to nicehash, prior to yesterday the average earning was £1 per hour per miner over a 24 hour period ... therefore giving me a return of £24 per miner per day ...

However since yesterday each miner has averaged £0.65 per hour giving a daily return of £15.33 per day ... thats a drop of 35%!!!!! WTF!! ... I am aware that the price of Bitcoin has dropped (choice of payment for nicehash) .. however if you note the amount in BTC rather than the value of the BTC .. you will still note the same pattern:

Prior to yesterday Hourly earned per miner = 0.0003171 BTC = Daily earning = 0.0076104 BTC

current hourly earned per miner = 0.0002518 BTC = Daily earning = 0.0060432 BTC


This is not looking good!!!

No this batch that is on hold was from the earlier batch which should have been here by end of august ... I have had machines delivered without an issue from the august 28th -sept 11th batch as well.... Apparently the issue is with China as they have restrictions on exporting of certain items and if paperwork is not 100% then they can apparently hold the shipment ... the proper pisstake in all this is that I have already paid the customs duty to UPS for this shipment as they pre-bill you prior to it even reaching the UK so that they don't have any "hold-ups" at this end.

I've had 12 miners stuck in China UPS for past week as well, after a number of emails to and fro between myself and UPS and myself and Bitmain .. the latest response from Bitmain is:


looks like a whole shipment from last batch release has been held up.

Thanks for the details info dev... from what you say it means about 404 million coins have already been mined by miners ... which if continues at current rate all 1 billion coins will have been in circulation before the 50% premine target (370 million) is reached .

370 million coins set aside for "premine" - to be distributed among developers/bounties etc...
80 million of premine (370 million) already distributed (21.6% approx)
630 million coins left for miners to mine.
404 million of 630 million already mined (64% approx)

can we have a reply to the above quoted post please Jijothomas?

sent a question to nicehash about the drop in earnings and got the following reply from them:

If you had read my post properly you would have realised that I was stating FACTS my intentions were in no way to make anyone envious ... I was not stating any predictions from calculators as I no longer use them since I have had my machines connected, the DASHBOARD PROFITIBILITY PROJECTION in NiceHAsh has to date been spot on, for those that have machines linked with them will probably agree with me that what they predict you will get paid in the following 24 hour period is almost 95% accurate everyday. I was working out my figures on that projected amount that was showing on the dashboard after yesterdays payout at 11am (UK Time). The daily profitibility of what I was getting for my machines (0.14-0.16) is a fact also ... now if you want to divide that by 16 and give users the payout of 1 machine for comparison then that is upto you ... but tbh I was more pissed off with what I was losing in form of income with whatever is happening with NiceHash to really care about individual machines.

I have just checked the dashboard/statistics and now it is showing that profitibilty should be 0.11-0.12 BTC so something must have changed over the past 12 hours, also I was noting that I was getting excessive speed rejection, at one point in the EFFICIENCY box it was reading 62% accepted 38% rejected ... which is rediculous my miners have always been between 98.5% and 100% except for this stint yesterday.

I am just wondering if they are having issues with reporting ... if so would be nice of them to notify the users, personally if it continues like this I will probably move over to prohashing.

I have 16 L3+ machines connected to nicehash ... was getting profitibility of 0.14-0.16 bitcoin per day ... which was pretty much what was predicted on the dashboard, since the payout this morning my expected  profitibilty shows as 0.08-0.10 bitcoin for the next 24 hours no change with machines etc .. Hash speeds are between 7500 - 8300 (total of 16 machines).

anyone else notice a sharp drop in nicehash profitibilty today for scrypt mining? My dashboard is showing a drop of 50% ... this is crazy!!

IOS wallet not available on App Store?

Can you just clarify what you mean by "premine"?

Are you classing premine as the facebook/social media bounty only?

Are you classing premine as actual coins mined by users using various mining methods?

Or are you combining both of the above to get your premine amount?

Can you actually give us a breakdown of exactly how much has been distributed using bounty method and how much has actually been mined?

thank you
