goldcoin-scrypt-coin

GoldCoin (GLD) is being made into a high value platform intended to be a lasting foundation for the world’s financial systems, don’t get left behind. GoldCoin (GLD) is an improved version of Litecoin currently using scrypt as a proof of work scheme. GoldCoin is faster than both BTC and LTC in terms of confirmation times and features an innovative 51% attack defense system. Golden River difficulty retargeting uses median and average times in accordance with various pre-defined clauses in step cases to provide near-best case movement without a pre-determined curve. The result is that while KGW and their variants are prettier to look at in their implementation, Golden River vastly outperforms them in cases where the difficulty needs to drop quickly. With Golden River the network difficulty can fall ~42% in a single block and still be accurate, in terms of the targeted block times, to the network hash rate. Furthermore those algorithms typically over-adjust upwards leading to network slow down, whereas Golden River is on the spot with these changes.

poolwarz-waiting-queue

With so many alternative crypto currencies nowadays it is hard to keep track of all of them, so services such as PoolWarz appeared that offer to provide you with a single mining pool where you can mine the right alternative currency at the right moment. This happens by tracking the exchange rates and difficulties of many alternative crypto currencies and calculating the most profitable at the specific time, so that the workers in the pool can be switched to mine that exact cryptocoin.

You might be already multiple crypto currency mining pool like the Multipool (only a mining multi pool) or CoinEX (multi pool and exchange in one), but there is a new interesting player called PoolWarz that is supposed to offer a more streamlined and user friendly interface. This service is still in beta and there is a long queue already by people that are waiting in line to get their chance to register and try it out. We just tried it out and got a message saying 6233 people are waiting in front of us to try out the service, so you can save some time and not bother with PoolWarz for now and instead go to some of the other services we’ve mentioned already that allow you to register and start using them immediately!

Update: Now, about a month later we’ve checked the situation and the website reports that there are currently 1233 people ahead of us, so as we’ve said – do not bother with that service for now at all. There are many other alternatives that will not tell you to wait for them for months just to try them.

Update 2: Five weeks later since our signup and we have finally received a login for the Poolwarz service, so we are going to be able to try it out finally.
