FYI

I was in Texas last weekend, im based in sweden, so I decided to have a drive down to cointerra and found their building. CLOSED

Not a car in the car park, and only 1 sign showing Cointerra were there.

Does not look good to me as they are supposed to be working hard on the new 2TH machines.

PMSL

Looks like a 4h+ block at the moment, based on blockchain

Is the pool running OK

Any news on the site?

Was expecting my 1st payment in the middle of the night, but nothing so an update would be good.

joolzg: I live in .se too. With my 7970 I make at least twice as much as electricity costs. That's not unimportant but my driving force is the anarchist part of it, and a currency that will work even when the world economies go down the drain (yeah I'm a pessimist). Call it an investment or insurance.

I must admit the heat is becoming a serious issue tho. Not to mention the noise. But as long as I get more back than I put in I'll keep going.

OK im just outside of malmo.

Before BTC mining 750sek electricity bill as i have a few linux servers running for various jobs
Last month 1 rig running 2x7970s, bill 1500sek
This month 2 rigs running 2x7970 and 2x6990, bill 2650sek ( and i was on holiday a week, so wife was not using the washing machine/dryer)

The noise was solved by keeping my door closed all the time.

The heat was ok with my window open fully, but now not enough as the temp rises.

so how you can make it work must be due to a different elecy supplier? whos yours? im with EON

Maybe i can ship my rigs to you and pay you a %

Im paying over 150UKP per month elecrticity extra, and that is wthout turning on the AirCon, which i need to now as my room temp has shot up to a point where i cannot sit in it for more that a few hours.

As the temp outside rises, the aircon will need to work harder so i guess in a week or 2 my earnings will pass the point of being positive.

Unless BTC rises faster than my temp its a loss loss situation.


Even if I have to spend .33$/kWh over here in Germany, your post amused me

How about putting your rigs in different places in the house? You would save money for AC in summer and for heating in winter - especially in Sweden... :-)

Yeah just heat the house in different places, would be great IF I NEEDED HEAT :-)

Well its goodbye from me until/if my BFL 30GH comes, as my 3GH BTC per month now does not cover my costs. If BTC goes up 25% maybe i will turn my rigs on.

3GH/s doesn't cover your costs?  Shocked

I am running barely 1GH/s, and it STILL more than pays for all the electricity my house uses in total.

Are you on a Pay As You Go 3G WiFi dongle, and powered by a petrol powered generator?

Jokes aside, I don't see how 3GH/s can't pay for its self - especially as the future potential value of BTC could be very high.

My one machine, making roughly 1GH/s costs me about 7 pence per hour to run, or £1.68 per day - and my payments of 0.05BTC come, on average, 33 hours apart, so I am generating £3.11 per day, or £1.43 profit after electricity costs

OK maybe costing too much is a bit over the top, but from when i started to now, im paying more elecy and getting a lots less

Earing .25BTC every ~2.5 days, so thats 12 1/4, which is 3 BTC per month, which is 240UKP at todays exchange rate (looking back at my earnings at the beginning i was getting .25 every 22 hours)

Im paying over 150UKP per month elecrticity extra, and that is wthout turning on the AirCon, which i need to now as my room temp has shot up to a point where i cannot sit in it for more that a few hours.

As the temp outside rises, the aircon will need to work harder so i guess in a week or 2 my earnings will pass the point of being positive.

Unless BTC rises faster than my temp its a loss loss situation.

So ill just sit and wait for the 30GH to come along and start again then.

Dying?  Interesting as the last time I checked the stats it was the first time I've seen it consistently over 10GH/s Wink



ok its gone from 7GH to 10GH in the last 3 months

and its gone from 16% to 8% in total network hashing rate, and evey week it gets lower and lower.

And as pointed out we used to be bigger and better that most, now they are infront

equal 6th with bitminter, from 2nd 3rd. so maybe not dying but slowly losing ground with other pools

show me the luck....

per http://blockchain.info/pools slash's pool is in the same category as Deepbit, EclipseMC, Eligius when not so long ago Slush was doing about 10X better then those  Huh

seems to me slushs pool is dying, no new miners coming online, staying static whilst other pools are going up.

maybe i will just hop over to one of the growing pools

slushs luck is just dropping all the time, we get 1 good day and then 3-4 crap days

OK i have 3 blocks all 15% lower than average
17983
18000
18006


but whats worrying is my average earnings

March .25
April .20
May .10

Is everyone seeing this drop in earnings, as its getting to a point of not being worth mining

joolz


yes the earnings are dropping seemingly faster then expected, but maybe it is just a perception. I just started mining in March, so i have no idea how it was earlier when difficulty was increasing. Though this is the way it is supposed to be by algorithm (earnings drop with time) it is a bit depressing to see the how earnings drop even when my hash increases.

same her i was expecting a slow decrease in earning as BFL have not really started dumping lots on the pools.

i increased my rate to 3GH and seen a drop from .01 to .007, so over a 25% drop and thats with a 50% increase in my mining rate

Two things are causing that, and it's completely normal.  Difficulty increases, and more miners entering the field.  And alot of those new miners are ASIC miners, which are probably causing the volatility everyone is talking about on this pool.

Everyone is freaking out over a perfectly normal occurrence.  But they don't see it that way, because their earnings are going down...

Well boys its time to say goodbye, will turn off my system when i get back home tomorrow night.

I knew the difficulty made a difference but not that much and so quick.

ill cash in my BTC and sell my cards and maybe even sell my butterfly order, as i dont think the 30GH is going to be worth it once i get it

I think after the DDOS slush needed time off, but I think now he needs to come on here and explain the blocks that we all are complaining about, the ...25 one is the killer, i got .00000079, my normal is around .0075.

And again last night another block screwed up.

Its becoming too regular and people are losing out, me included.

So would be nice for an explanation from the man himself and not someone WHO thinks they know.
