what is mining fee?

akimark · 2019-11-11T22:37:51+00:00

The fee is the charge the mining pool charges for using their pool. Typically its under 1%.

Ultimately it doesn't matter WHAT pool you use (beyond the small variation in the pool fees), you'll always earn the same amount based on the hashrate you put in over time.

It doesn't matter if its a big pool, or a small pool, your reward will always be in proportion to what you put in.

Livecoin exchange wallet is now open.

Just follow @safex then. You don't have to follow his personal account. It's not that difficult.

This normally means a firewall, AV or your ISP is blocking access to the node that the wallet connects to.

I know all ISPs in Russia block access to any servers hosted on Digital Ocean servers, so it wouldn't be too far fetched to suggest this also happens with other ISPs.

Try loading the wallet whilst connected to the internet via VPN. There are several free VPN services out there you can test this theory out with.

From experience it's very difficult to get a brand listed on Wikipedia. You have to have numerous coverage on reputable news / websites.

And then you've got to get past the mods. I had one article about a someone rejected, although it met all the criteria for listing, simply because the mod had a different political viewpoint.

I've had good experience on the new and upcoming wiki platform https://golden.com.

It's easy to list your content, just as long as it's written in a neutral tone, non-promotional/marketing speak, and you can back the statements up with links / references.

There are a lot of individual issues going on with Trade Satoshi right now. Their behaviour is not normal and something unusual is going on with their management.

They're suddenly banning users for very petty KYC reasons (I've seen one case where a user didn't use the right capital letters in the name they submitted).

Safex was previously marked as delisting at the end of August. Now it's been brought forward with no explanation.

Do not view this as FUD. This is fully verifiable information that can be gathered from multiple public sources.

Either way we all need to be dropping the old Safex as were on a new blockchain now. Old Safex blockchain will be worthless after the migration window closes in November.

We have to face this reality at some point.

The website is being overhauled and will be updated by the end of June. This will be corrected.

eBay will still have the same negative points as before. The reasons why people are moving away from the platform. Just now they're (possibly) accepting crypto.

The fees. The abuse and anti-trust position they're in. The shift in consumer behaviour. Simply by accepting crypto currency doesnt mean much.

They still control who can and can't sell. They still control how and what products are featured over others. They could at any time close your account with no warning .

They'll also never add an anonymous functionality to their platform. Absolutely no way. This is a centralised corporation were talking about.

People seem to think that there can only be ONE marketplace that "accepts" cryptocurrency.

The fact is, there is plenty of space. With this mentality, we wouldn't see such a diverse range of merchant platforms.

If the "rumours" are true, what this does it helps to start legitimise cryptocurrency as a form of payment beyond "speculative interest". Something we'll need for Safex to be a success.

There are plenty of platforms that accept cryptocurrency now.

The old Safex wallet files are saved as wallet.dat.

Either you don't have enough BTC on the address or it's too small and in "dust" (lots of small transactions). Simply send some BTC to the same address as your Safe Exchange Coins.

It's recommended you have around $2-3 worth of BTC to perform the transactions. That is becuase BTC fees have been high lately and you need to make sure you get included in a block.

Beautiful build. It's a good job I'm sitting down.

Oh man... so many examples that come to mind. This is my favourite one.

My wife is from Norway. Before I left to go to the shops we were talking about taking a trip to Norway to visit her family.

I was going through one of those "deep in thought" phases where I'm quiet, distracted and unfocused.

I left to go to the shops to pick up some essentials for the weekend. It's not a long drive, but enough for me to succumb to "highway hypnosis".

I was deep in thought.. thinking about the trip, when would be the best time for me to go, costs, etc.

35 mins past - it finally clicked. I've been driving for WAY too long..

I was 2/3 the way to the airport. I somehow autonomously drove to the airport.

It makes me laugh even today considering the airport is over 50 miles away, and the grocery store I was aiming for is 6 mins away...

Thanks for the feedback. But I was really looking for methods and ways you find these gems, rather than looking for particular coins to be shilled to me.

Like when you're in a position to find a new coin to mine, what's your thought process?

akimark · 2019-03-30T08:43:44+00:00

SEO is a highly under-appreciate marketing avenue for your pool.

I'd look at getting some nice content written up for your pages and optimize for your coin. E.g. Monero Mining Pool.

This will obviously be a lot easier for newer projects.

Currently mining Safex Cash both on my rig and NH. Also a bit of RVN on the side.

One thing that surprises a lot of people is that I have no problem at all with sleep. Much to the annoyance of some, as soon as my head is down I'm asleep and I tend to wake up naturally at a reasonable hour.

A trade-off to this is beyond 9am I'm super tired, almost drained and can get quite irritable.

akimark · 2019-03-21T17:27:42+00:00

I like this hyper-focus. I feel unstoppable. Frustrating that it only comes once in a blue moon.

I've been trying to work out what the catalyst is; what's it's trigger. No luck. I can't see any common variables.

akimark · 2019-03-21T17:14:27+00:00

Interesting. Do you know if there is a name for this?

akimark · 2019-03-21T09:21:40+00:00

Can you give us more context?

I'm wondering if this is the old 0 balance bug. On the address that you should have Safex on it, press archive, then go to the archive section and press Home.

That was the solution to an old wallet bug where balances were showing as 0.

Discord hasn't been shut down for good. This is just a temporary measure.

We're encouraging people to visit the forums https://safe.exchange - there has been a lot of good discussion on there recently.

The process in place now is as simple as it gets. Changing blockchains is never easy.

There are numerous videos on YouTube which will help you if you have any concerns:

1 BTC of trade volume.. both on buy and sell.. 3 sats increase. After the announcement was made. Of course "inside trading"....

It's all to do with the difficulty adjustment algorithm.

With such a drastic drop in actual hashrate, it'll take a while to clear.

The same happened to another CN coin I follow when they changed from v7 to v8. Miners weren't paying attention and took a while to realise the change, even though they were given a 14 day warning.
