    oh yeah, I would be developing if someone would pump the price, but I don't see it happening. For $30 a day hmm, not much interest here.

    I might make that fork I keep talking about at some point though.



    YES - please fork and let the miners decide which coin to mine.

    You are obviously just reaping some idle infrastructure (or the proposed botnet, whatever).
    So it is no surprise that you weigh 30$/day mining output against the cost of a full-time developer.

    But your math is surprising. Because you (or someone) spend(s) at least 200 $/day;

    If build new with _today's_ tech, cost-effective 4.4 PB storage alone will cost no less than 130k$.
    Stretched to 2y this is ~178$/day.
    It sucks at least 5 kW w/o A/C -> ~120 kWh/day, with a minimum of 0.08 $/kWh -> 10$/day power.
    One cannot operate a 130kUSD infrastructure for 30$/day.

    You're not the owner, as no sane owner has that rack idle and rents it for the naked energy costs
    for the 11 months you're mining here.

    Months ago you asked me wether I pay market rates for my 400TB setup; Yes I did. It was off-lease
    stuff, hence I had higher energy costs. And exactly that led me to switch most of it off a few weeks ago.
    I cannot afford this hobby any longer, unless I move stuff to some remote location in china where
    the kWh is 0.03$. In most of Europe it's >>0.20$/kWh.

    @devs
    Is it possible to see where in the internets bitladens deadlines were injected ?
    I traced all wallet connections a few months ago (quite interesting, companies like volumedrive.com),
    but was unable to trace the origin of individual miners.

    This (his) might be a very interesting or very badly organised employer/company.


    @all
    oh, and he is gone again since 13 hours ago.. his last stint lasted just under 8hrs.
    perhaps stress-testing the diff algo by halving/doubling the network size in shrinking cycles..
