bitUSD Mining is now live!

Good job guys. 

so what kind of miners are you all using?    Will a sha bit coin miner work?   I might have one,  just need to get some new psu..

Yes like iHashFury said, we only support Script and X11 presenting. Once we have completed some updates we will be supporting sha256 and possibly a few others.

We are in the process now of increasing our funding so that we can get this all done sooner than later.

Only SCRYPT and X11, SHA is to come later

How is it going with the most profitable pool?
Maybe you should stop saying that or get some more "bonus" into it to back that up!

20150508,SCRYPT,0508083305,0.03176601,USD/MH/Day,0.00013377,BTC/MH/Day

When will we see the payout to be the best?

To address this issue we have changed the mining port from 4444 to 4447.

All miners who were using 4444 need to update to 4447 instead for the same difficulty level mining.

We have tested everything and it should work fine.

Let me know if you have any further issues with this.

It's working for me now on 4447.
Thanks.

Awesome!

Thanks for contacting. We will look into this asap.

same. just noticed it thanks to his post.

Are you experiencing this right now?

I am not able to reproduce the problem on my end but we made some adjustments to our firewall to try and address this to see if it made some difference.

Hi, was wondering if someone that runs the pool could look into this or provide some guidance. I was mining scrypt fine at stratum+tcp://usd.minebitshares.com:4444 for about a month and then over the weekend I could not connect anymore, specifically after Saturday the 2nd. I noticed on twitter that you moved data centers. Maybe there is an issue with a firewall or something? I was reviewing the settings again and saw in the guide that there are other ports for high diff, so I ran a test on 4445 and I can connect, switch back to 4444 and it immediately fails over to my backup pool on starting. Thanks for looking into it.

Just to make sure nobody missed it.

Please cast your vote on our informal poll regarding creating new delegates to support this project:

https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php/topic,16140

We are only leaving this open for a few days to gather feedback before we move forward.

This isn't rocket science

@Stan may disagree here

I will vote for an additional delegate, DSN. To the bunker, and beyond!

Thanks TurkeyLeg.. we are considering possibly calling on people to move their votes from one of our current 3% delegates to a new 100% delegate that would reflect the new name as well.. BunkerMining.

I will get started on the poll sometime tonight.

Added your 100% delegate to my slate https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php/topic,13539.msg204855.html#msg204855
and would be happy to add more, especially to mine BitSilver with SHA-256 

Please consider it. 

My take on this is thus:  Datasecuritynode is a trusted member of the community.  It is silly to limit our options unnecessarily when it is possible to ensure the success of this project.  This means having ample funds to guarantee the payouts will be higher than competitor pools.

Even if people distrust him (for some reason of which I am unaware), we could enable multisig for an account and allow a few other trusted members of the community sign over extra funds as they are needed.  The question really comes down to whether we want to have ample or no flexibility to adapt to changing circumstances (Marketcap comes to mind here--but it is not the only factor).  If the funds are needed, then we have them this way...if they are not needed even better, but at least they were available in the case they did become a requirement.  If this pool drops from being the highest for a long enough period of time due to unforeseen circumstances, we might lose one of our biggest chances to explode onto the scene like we want this to do.  If that happens we might as well have not even done it at all. 

Whatever amount goes unused just sits locked away in the multisig account until such a time as it is needed....so if/when Data effectively accomplishes his mission to ensure it is the most profitable pool on its own, we can simply burn the rest of the funds.  This is the only way we can:
1) ensure the pool remains the most profitable regardless of circumstances
2) ensure #1 is accomplished with the minimal amount of BTS created. 

This isn't rocket science
