Re: [ANN] profit switching auto-exchanging pool - middlecoin.com
IMPORTANT UPDATE
Somebody has PMed me H2O's personal details including name, home address, where he went to college, a picture of him, and more details on him.
He works as a video game programmer and he plays lots of MMORPG video games. He is 32 years old and lives in California (ANOTHER LIE, he told us he lives in the midwest) His name is Eric. I won't give his last name yet.
This pool is NOT his "full time job" like he said. HE LIED TO YOU ALL. 1 LIE MEANS YOU SHOULDN'T TRUST HIM ANYMORE. He has a full-time job as a video game programmer.
1 quote from H2O on a different website recently is "Video games are pretty much my life right now."
I have sent him a PM to try to work things out. I will give him 24 hours to reply before taking further action.

Re: [ANN] profit switching auto-exchanging pool - middlecoin.com
What temp you running that thing? Been trying to tune my rigs (290x) and they run hot as hell so I tune them down to keep them at around 85C. You get more than I do per rig.
My MSI R9 280X stays at 82c at 40% fan speed. It's using a small engine overclock (1020/1500 -> 1040/1500), and is mounted in an ATX case with the side partially removed to improve airflow. Multiple cards in proximity would obviously result in higher temperatures.
This has been pointed out before, but middlecoin calculates moving average using your submitted shares. The US East server tends to reject fewer shares, resulting in my moving average showing up to 0.82 Mh/s when cgminer only reports 0.72.
Not fair to compare 280Xs with 290Xs. Let alone the architecture difference, the cooling is significantly different between the two. We have a mix of 280X, 290s and 290Xs in our cluster and 280Xs no matter where you place them, in an open air case or a standard ATX, function significantly cooler with less power requirements and not so significantly less hashing power equaling greater efficiency.
Think you are missing a word or two there somewhere.
"We have a mix of 280X, 290s and 290Xs in our cluster and 280Xs no matter where you place them"I have the reference design 290s, not sure if that makes any difference. Somewhat freaked out that reference designs only have 1 fan.

Interesting, might have to revisit my air flow solutions and stop underclocking. My fan runs at 45%. My WU seems to be higher in USEAST, maybe because it has the best ping for me.
Re: [ANN] profit switching auto-exchanging pool - middlecoin.com
Over the last 2 weeks, I averaged 5.28 mBTC/day with my modest 0.720 Mhash/s R9 280X setup. I restart CGMiner whenever rejected shares goes above 2%.
This comes out to 7.33 mBTC/day per Mhash/s. At current coinbase price of $864.86, I earned a total of $63.93 in two weeks.
This gives me $6.34 per Mhash per day. During these two weeks, USD/BTC ranged from $700 to $1000, while middlecoin grew from 7 GH/s to 13 GH/s. The rate of posting in this very thread saw a similar increase, as did the number of vocal dissidents.
If middlecoin earned 200,000 mBTC using 12,500 MH/s, today's pool payed 16 mBTC per Mhash/s, which puts me at about %50 below the pool average. The bottom line is, if you think you can earn more somewhere else, why are you posting here?
To everyone who asked for these numbers, all the data you need is available on middlecoin.com. Do the math
I'm fine with H20 using my 3% to build more servers, trade on the exchanges, and resolve technical issues in a timely manner. It saves me the time and headaches of starting my own mining pool.
edit: useast.middlecoin.com started timing out for me, switching to the default pool seemed to fix it.

Re: [ANN] profit switching auto-exchanging pool - middlecoin.com
Doge just had a huge spike and our unexchanged still took a haircut. That's really interesting....
H20, we would love a little bit more feedback if possible.
Re: [ANN] profit switching auto-exchanging pool - middlecoin.com
around 50 btc was just exchanged in an instant, yet the price also exploded. Is the middlepool owner colluding with someone and just hid the sell within the 60btc buy?
Thats a possibility but without any evidence all you are contributing is FUD. Not exactly productive or constructive.
Re: [ANN] profit switching auto-exchanging pool - middlecoin.com
Anyone think alt-coins will go up in value before recent drop? I made like 20-25$ day in december and now its down to 14$?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
And h20 really need to do something about user 1M3jtksp1upR33SX1VzeCfH5x9fc6zKykR with hashrate of 639 Mh/s (mining with ASIC)
23 Mh/s increase in less than 24 hours. This is worrying especially if he's making a second "mining plant" with another 600 Mh/s. That means he is going to take 10% OF TOTAL POOL VALUE.
With that hashrate he can go and solo-mine instead on a low difficulty alt-coin.

What actually is wrong with 1M3jtksp1upR33SX1VzeCfH5x9fc6zKykR???
Explain to me why having him on the pool is a bad thing?
well only bad thing i see is we cant mine smaller alt coins cause of the pools huge hash we would send their diff thru the roof very fast and wouldnt be worth mining them and dumping huge amount of some alt coins could cause a crash in value. Seems h20 cant sell alot of our alt coins as is right now im up to nearly .040 in unexchanged myself already or hes not around right now he haset posted in forums sence the 7th.
This is the exact reason it's a bit sad we have such huge miners. I'm not suggesting he should be removed. Cause it's only fair. But it hurts us a little bit
Wouldn't it be possible for H20 to set up several servers mining different coins and have everyone hit just one server and balance out the hashing so that newer coins dont get hit hard? Reward would be proportional to accepted hash rate and not what particular coin mined to make it fair.
This has been brought up several times. I think there's some tech challenges to doing it this way and might require some actual work.
I would love to work on something like this and maybe some other alternatives. Unfortunately I don't have the time and people already criticize how much time and effort I put into this as it is. Not sure if any of you guys have this same issues or how you deal with it. It doesn't matter how high bitcoin goes and how much adoption it has.
There are other pools popping up that seem really promising. I'm going to be testing some out after this weekend.
Care to share sir?

Re: [ANN] profit switching auto-exchanging pool - middlecoin.com
hi to all
my "Unexchanged Balance" does not go into "Balance" about 2 days
what happens ?
my "Unexchanged Balance" does not go into "Balance" about 2 days
what happens ?
Due to recent flood of hashpower into this pool we are sitting on tons of unexchanged coins which have no value. These coins will NEVER get exchanged because market volume is too high.
I'm not sure that makes any sense. Why will they never get exchanged? high volume is great, it means liquidity and it means that h20 can move them. low volume is bad because trades are few. For all we know its another issue altogether. I would like to hear an update though if possible.
Simple supply/demand.
If we flood the market with all these coins, the value will decrease dramatically.
You got it
I'm not saying to exchange it all at once though. I do understand that flooding the market will affect price, which is why I would like an update of sorts

Re: [ANN] profit switching auto-exchanging pool - middlecoin.com
I have 2 7970's, 1 7950, and 1 280x on a 1200 gold rated psu. It should handle them no problem, I tried upping the voltage, and I tried it in both the config file and in msi afterburner with no luck 
and yes, all in 16x slots - two 7970's directly connected to mobo, and the others on 16x-16x risers
Heterogeneous card configurations almost always sacrifice performance. Specifically with 3 different types of cards, you're going to be losing at least some hash rate.and yes, all in 16x slots - two 7970's directly connected to mobo, and the others on 16x-16x risers
Go with Homogeneous card setups (all the same brand and model, preferably the same batch), if you want to really push your machines to the limit.
I've found after a year that pushing my machines to the limit is less productive than a nice stable continuous hash day after day after day. But maybe I suck at this.
Also, I've had a 7970 running at 95-100 degrees for 3 months now. Just waiting for it to fail I guess (others all run mid 70s to 80s).
Is it running that hot in a case with the others? Why dont you add some more cooling and save it?
Re: [ANN] profit switching auto-exchanging pool - middlecoin.com
I don't get how some of you are figuring the guy with 600+Mh/s is taking money from the rest of us. This is a proportional pool. He earns his share (as do we all) with our hashrate. It makes no difference if he is mining or not. You will still get the same amount proportional to how many shares you submit.
because, greed.
Re: [ANN] profit switching auto-exchanging pool - middlecoin.com
IN the config for cgminer you can set ranges for the fan, the gpu-memclock, etc. Thats what I do and it seems to handle it fine. My 290x overheated and shut itself off once... which made me go that route.
I just installed Teamview so I can keep an eye on my Miners from work. Slow, and I'm wondering how it will handle it when one of the 280x's freaks out locks the machine.

Re: [ANN] profit switching auto-exchanging pool - middlecoin.com
Temp cut off 99?? I was reading on the 290x (we have the same card) and it can run 94 but thats about safe levels.
Anyway, how do you run your TC so high? Mine won't let me. I set it to 12000 once and it said I needed a higher LG, which basically kills hash rate.
Either:
1) Too high overclock.
2) Too high heat.
3) Too high intensity.
4) GPU is dying.
This happen to me when the card voltage is too low compared to my overclocking.
It also happens around 2-3 times a month for no reason.
Well this is the config for that particular card:
-I 20 \
-w 512 \
--gpu-threads 1 \
--thread-concurrency 32765 \
--gpu-engine 990 \
--gpu-memclock 1500 \
--gpu-powertune 11 \
--gpu-vddc 1.025 \
--device 3 \
--remove-disabled \
--temp-cutoff 99 \
--temp-overheat 95 \
--temp-target 85 \
--auto-fan \
--gpu-fan 50-85
It doesnt give any HW errors like this.
It does run hot but all 290's run hot (85c - 90c, although I have seen it go over 95c once before).
It's got it's own psu to it's self.
Hope it's not on the way out, not had it long lol.

Soooo I noticed it said "SICK" (R9 290) a few mins ago and thought it was weird that i had never noticed it.
Then a few mins later I saw the temp drop so i checked again and now it says "DEAD".
A full restart of the rig seems to have it back running but I don't know what would have caused it? Anyone seen this before?

Re: [ANN] profit switching auto-exchanging pool - middlecoin.com
I set intensity to 13 on my 290x, it stays at 0. If I go up to 14 or 15 HW starts creeping up. Not sure what it is, I optimized the hell out of my settings.
Anyway, I managed to reduce my HW by setting thread-concurrency to 8192 but that is hardware specific. you should google what the best setting is for your rig.

What does Hardware error actually mean and how can i reduce it?? in the last 4 hours cgminer says HW is 157.
