[ANN] profit switching auto-exchanging pool - www.middlecoin.com

I'm working on fixing the issues. The US pool should be back up. If you are still having issues with it, let me know in here.

Someone said here that h2o is raking in tens of thousands of dollars a month... someone is gel ... and wants to take it down to ward of new miners.

At least we get a better ddos protection in the future...

If anyone else needs to restart cgminer to get it to work, let me know. I'm curious if that's needed.

The site goes down a lot which is very annoying. The owner should invest some of his profit in anti-ddos service like Incapsula to protect his site.

It would make sense.. A lot of sense.

I have 2 rigs, both 2x7950s right now. Waiting on risers to move them all to one rig and get more cards in play.
I came home from work and one rig was mining away normally, but one had locked down both cgminer and cgwatcher. I closed both programs and resarted, but only 1 card was recognized. I swapped dummy plugs and the monitor around several times to no avail. Turning off the rig didn't help, but turning it off, unplugging both the power supply and the video card, then plugging all back in and restarting seemed to work. Both rigs are reporting proper work at middlecoin, so I'm not worried about the work being done. I'm sure the website will be back up soon.

You are probably aware but there is a rogue sell order on coins-e that is throwing off the profitability on coinwarz, I presume you are using that site as we are still on doge but it's only the 10th most profitable coin at the correct rate.

From what I've seen the main display has issues sometimes with updating but this pool has very little downtime.  If you look at multi pool or hash cows they go down about daily

I honestly don't think you need to be telling H2O this! ;-) Seems like he has complete control over the situation. I'm really happy at least.

Multipool connection issues led me to mine only on middlecoin... the had issues with both the stratum server and the frontend. At middlecoin the stratum server is almost always up, and now they have the eu server as backup.

The lagging of updates to the graphs and data on the front page has been aggravated by the pool tripling in size in just the last week. It looks like h2o is using amazon hosting now, so hopefully that fixes everything.

What is a rogue sell order?

In case it helps with debugging: cgminer needed restarting in two out of five cases here because of lost connections, and the two cases were at different times. The other three are fine.

What is the EU server address/port for mining?

On the website I only see "cgminer --scrypt -o stratum+tcp://middlecoin.com:3333 -u <your bitcoin address> -p x" as an example and the FAQ page doesn't work atm (404)

Add eu in front the the US address to get the EU server... i.e. stratum+tcp://eu.middlecoin.com:3333

What is a rogue sell order?

An order of small quantity significantly above or below the market price for the sole purpose of manipulating the reported price of a currency. If I had two accounts on an exchange, I could sell 1 DOGE for 0.001 BTC... it will bump the reported price up / many trigger some auto-sell bots (at higher price)...

Edit: In other news I'm glad to see we are back online :]  I had to manually restart 2 miners, the other currently pointed at the pool restarted automatically... probably a good time for my lazy butt to add backup pools haha.

coinGeek's graphs aren't working because of a change I made. Later tomorrow I'll modify it back to the way it was, so his graphs should start working again.

What are average earnings these days when mining on your pool with 4 MH/s? When I check that table, profits are so various, from 0.015 up to 1.5 BTC per day?
