ftc pool geek -
Poo… thanks notifying us bush, wouldn’t even have realized. Damn, I have to go back to solo mining with a mere 4k MH/s cause half my cards (5970’s) don’t like mining stratum and the pool I mine at isn’t updated.
-
aysyr - try our pool - have had a few users that struggled with stratum but worked on ours…

Not sure, but i think D2’s pool is on the old chain, can someone confirm?
-
on the main page of my pool of choice [url=http://feathercoin.is-a-geek.com]http://feathercoin.is-a-geek.com[/url] is says it is still
“Running 0.6.4.3 Feathercoin client with difficulty fix.”
Does anyone know if this is true?
Is the hard fork happening today or tomorrow? < -

[/quote]I’ll give it a shot when I get home, my 5970’s always have their display drivers stop responding when I use stratum no matter what I tried so we’ll see haha, if not I emailed BigVern and he said he’s updated the client and is working on the pool so I can go back to that if it doesn’t work.

Any word from multipool.in?

[/quote]Good spot. I have sent them an email.

I informed forum member dcwsco.
He announced the pool ftc123.net here in the forum.
This pool is updated since last night, too.
-
we still have around 260Mh/s and at least [url=http://feathercoin.is-a-geek.com]http://feathercoin.is-a-geek.com[/url] mining on the old chain. unfortunately i can’t reach the owner as it’s via bitcointalk and before it goes down he had not log since sept 30 :(. this is 36M the rest I don’t know from where it is.

Gonna be a bunch of pissed off miners on that pool. Sad thing is that the miners are likely on the wrong chain too so think they are getting huge payouts. Look at the block rate!

[/quote]I keep hearing all this talk of the “wrong chain”. I don’t get it.
Yes, it’s not the official chain as sponsored by the most recent client, but it is a valid chain and people can still use it for trading just fine, just like they did before. That’s why it’s called a fork: Because what was once one continues in two directions.
As far as these people are concerned, this is a better chain because they can get more of it, and services are free to spring up around it, like exchanges. It’s just like any other day on bitcointalk.org (sniff) where someone has released yet another alt-coin, except in this case it was Feathercoin releasing an alt coin that forked from an existing chain as opposed to starting from a new genesis block.
This is the danger inherit in forks: Your community can choose not to accept them, and then you have a schism. We’re seeing this now, and it’s only because everyone ELSE got on the new fork that they are considered “wrong”. Convincing them to switch was trivial before the fork, because they had a vested interest in doing so, but post-fork they have a vested interest in staying on the old chain, because they’re rich on the old chain and poor on the fork. Ostensibly it didn’t happen for whatever reason, be it malice, incompetence, or neglect, but the longer it continues, the most interest they have in not switching.
Truly, we live in interesting times.

I lost 1 day as i was at work when finding out on Sept 30. then mine LTC, PXC, WDC in rotate excluding FTC from my rotate as it was geek. now switch to Nutnut pool as it seems time is way too long to solve problem at geek. So now mine FTC (Nutnut) and failover to PXC(D2) if needed(should not).
@Kevlar. In theory yes it can be valid but no one else use it. so in real the coins are not true except for them and are mostly useless. Mining them while you think you mine what is actually used by other can be consider a wrong chain. similar as been on the wrong road is still a road you just don’t get where you think you go.
in fact they get 1 pennies every hour instead 10 dollars every day. so they get more in numbers but at the end of the day i would better like to get 10 dollars then 24 pennies. they just don’t know it’s 24 pennies not 24 dollars they get :(. possibly in future those pennies will be 100 dollars each as collectable fiat coins can worth, but it’s not likely to happen. until the pool update my 46 prefork coins in geek are pennies.
in fact that fork is cause by client update, but any fork can be used like that just as no one conscider the coins in that fork as valid they have no value. As the general consensus is that coins have value only on the longest chain not on shorter fork. any fork coin chain accepted would get coin previously owned coins enable for double spend from the longest chain. -
groll welcome to our pool.
hope you like it there :DWas gonna comment kevlar buth i feel you covered it groll.
