- Hey ManeBjorn. Thank you for hosting the unit for us. I'm glad to see it's been mining smoothly.
- 12:59:01 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- So far it has been good. They are little heaters that is for sure LOL
- 12:59:24 PM MST
- nonnakip
- OgNasty: we should keep a copy of full chat log
- 12:59:27 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- That is a great idea
- 12:59:38 PM MST
- ognasty
- silverfuture & Squirrel Dearing will also be hosting units for us. silverfuture's has been shipped out, and Squirrel's should ship in the next few days.

- Everyone will be mining using their forum usernames on Nasty Pool. Their progress is visible for everyone to see at http://nastyfans.org:9332/static/graphs.html?Week by searching their username.
- 1:01:18 PM MST
- That leaves us 2 more units to deal with, as the other 2 were sold.
- 1:02:00 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- That was handy when I wanted to see how it was going on the pool. Sometimes on the other I purchased one side does not power up but it did not report it I only saw it on the pool.
- 1:02:17 PM MST
- Great graphs too.
- 1:02:35 PM MST
- Carnth
- nonnakip, you must have did some python work to get P2Pool to pay by user name. Good job.
- 1:02:59 PM MST
- nonnakip
- Carnth: no that is a p2pool feature
- 1:03:25 PM MST
- ognasty
- They are mining on behalf of the NastyFans address.
- 1:03:42 PM MST
- nonnakip
- Until now no p2pool modifications necessary.
- 1:03:45 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- I have some suggestions for getting some more miners on Nasty Pool.
- 1:04:01 PM MST
- It will cost a tiny bit but I think we should advertise on these sites as they go so many hits from new and current miners
- 1:04:43 PM MST
- ognasty
- I had the pleasure of getting some face time with nonnakip recently, and I liked some of the things he was talking about doing for Nasty Pool.
- 1:05:07 PM MST
- I think advertising at this time would be a bit premature after hearing some of his ideas.
- 1:05:42 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- freebitco.in, landofbitcoin.com, bitvisitor.com
- 1:05:44 PM MST
- It is a good idea for the future though you are right
- 1:05:57 PM MST
- nonnakip can you share any of the ideas here?
- 1:06:11 PM MST
- ognasty
- I agree that at some point, there will have to be a better PR campaign than currently exists.

- NastyPool is still in early stages. There are plans for features that will interest miners that know nothing or do not understand P2Pool.
- 1:06:39 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- Very cool

- I also like the idea of the new method of fans selecting the distribution % as opposed to the current poll system.
- 1:08:01 PM MST
- I think that in the future, the distribution will become more and more complex.
- 1:08:43 PM MST
- tsm13
- whats to stop ppl requesting 100%
- 1:08:44 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- That is a good idea. Although it could backfire at times. It is more democratic.
- 1:08:46 PM MST
- nonnakip
- OgNasty: I think a text field on the donations page for members to save % might work good.
- 1:08:52 PM MST
- tsm13
- i mean other way around selecting 0% saves
- 1:09:39 PM MST
- ppl will be greedy
- 1:09:53 PM MST
- Carnth
- I would like to know if we will mine scrypt for LTC and if LTC will become part of the donations or if all alts will be converted to BTC.
- 1:09:59 PM MST
- ognasty
- It would be nice if BTC sources were identified and were also handled differently in the future. For example, Nasty Mining's loans specified that we repay 25% of the mined BTC to them. We are currently sending 50% of all BTC sources. That is something that should be looked at.
- 1:09:59 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- It can be managed better by doing that.
- 1:10:22 PM MST
- ognasty
- I don't like the idea of paying out LTC. That complicates statistics and I don't see a valid reason for it.
- 1:10:31 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- Do you have a software system in place for it or spreadsheet
- 1:10:37 PM MST
- One thing with LTC though is it does have a good value. I keep most of mine
- 1:10:58 PM MST
- ognasty
- I like the diversification aspect of Nasty Mining holding multiple crypto-currencies. It keeps me from spending everything too easily.
- 1:11:00 PM MST
- You can view the holdings on the forum thread OP, or the iOS app.
- 1:11:20 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- I like how open you are with everything about Nasty Mining.
- 1:12:27 PM MST
- tsm13
- hey ognasty, two questions
- 1:12:38 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- it makes it easier for new people to trust you as well.
- 1:12:43 PM MST
- that is going to be key as the Pool expands
- 1:12:54 PM MST
- tsm13
- 1. Whats change your opinion to vote vs abstain in recent times
- 1:12:59 PM MST
- ognasty
- I guess that sums up that I would eventually like mined coins to have 25% paid directly to lenders, and separated from the regular distribution.
- 1:13:14 PM MST
- tsm13
- 2. does og have anything to do with overgrow.com
- 1:13:21 PM MST
- ognasty
- 2. No. I have never seen overgrow.com.
- 1:13:54 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- it is am empty site too
- 1:14:14 PM MST
- tsm13
- yeh it was closed down a long time ago
- 1:14:35 PM MST
- was abbreviated to og, by the ppl there, just wondering
- 1:14:56 PM MST
- the first q, tho whats changed
- 1:15:07 PM MST
- i still see it as conflict of interest if you vote
- 1:15:21 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- Og do you think having the 25% paid directly to lenders will help pay off the debt faster?
- 1:15:34 PM MST
- Carnth
- That leaves me wondering... What does "Og" in OgNasty mean... if anything.

- I do not see it as a conflict of interest as he is at the epicenter of it all.
- 1:16:26 PM MST
- Him voting could allow for faster action on some issues
- 1:16:48 PM MST
- Carnth
- Mane, the argumanet is, OgNasty is a primary shareholder. He could potentialy vote his way and it would pass.
- 1:17:12 PM MST
- ognasty
- 1. We had a member bring up concerns a long time ago with regards to me having too much control with voting. I just wanted to voice my intent to vote with all my seats since I have at times abstained in the past, so that anyone watching is fully aware of what is going on. It was all about transparency.
- 1:17:14 PM MST
- tsm13
- carnth
- 1:17:22 PM MST
- exactly
- 1:17:24 PM MST
- nonnakip
- OgNasty: Any newly generated coins donated to nastyfans we can consider as NASTY MINING. I could identify these and maybe we vote to set policy that NASTY MINING always gets at least 25% of mined coins?
- 1:17:33 PM MST
- tsm13
- ognasty, if you reduce your voting power i think then its doable
- 1:18:25 PM MST
- ognasty
- ManeBjorn, it isn't that I think 25% will pay it off faster. It is that I think it will pay it off as per the agreement, and can be done more transparently. I also think that setting it to the exact lending agreement will allow the debt to establish a price, so it has the potential of being bartered in the future.
- 1:18:34 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- Carnth I understand that but at the same time decisions also affect him more than everyone else because he is the primary shareholder
- 1:18:46 PM MST
- tsm13
- can u chose to vote with the avg number of owned seats
- 1:18:47 PM MST
- Carnth
- But at the same time, OgNasty has a lost of shares, so should it be fair that all his shares count for one vote like the rest of ours do?
- 1:19:04 PM MST
- tsm13
- this is the conflict of interest, is a fan and runs nasty mining
- 1:19:29 PM MST
- ognasty
- nonnakip: I would like it if eventually the 25% was separated completely, and paid out transparently to the lenders directly in the distribution.
- 1:19:37 PM MST
- tsm13
- am not being combative here, i think there is a solution
- 1:20:07 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- I understand that as well as there can be conflicts of interest but at the same time every choice made affects him more so than us because of that stake.
- 1:20:16 PM MST
- nonnakip
- tsm13: OgNasty started sending mining machines to other fans. So fans as miners is becoming common. Maybe in the future most fans are mining.
- 1:20:23 PM MST
- tsm13
- but if someone can vote with 10,000 seats it swings the vote
- 1:20:24 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- I like that idea for paying the lenders.
- 1:20:35 PM MST
- ognasty
- tsm13: That is why the first step is in getting an average of every seat for the distribution.
- 1:21:14 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- I would love to host a monarch that way I could also review it on cryptocoinsnews.com and Nasty Mining and Nasty Fans more press in the process.
- 1:21:31 PM MST
- tsm13
- nonnakip its not really the same here, i do appreciate your answer
- 1:21:34 PM MST
- ognasty
- I think we need to move a little towards an every vote counts system, as opposed to the majority rules system.
- 1:21:46 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- How do you weigh the votes then?
- 1:22:58 PM MST
- tsm13
- let me give u an example, if the poll was what to put in our lunchbox on tuesday. A: Apples B: Oranges (assumption: OGNasty hates apples, apples are cheaper than oranges). I vote with my two seats as to the rest of the shareholders = 9000 seats. OGNasty votes for Oranges with his 10k votes. this is the problem. "All made up"
- 1:23:54 PM MST
- me and other shareholder vote apples
- 1:24:16 PM MST
- ^^
- 1:24:19 PM MST
- ognasty
- tsm13: the goal would be to make sure you get an Apple.
- 1:24:32 PM MST
- but if everyone else wants an orange, they get oranges.
- 1:24:49 PM MST
- tsm13
- ok explain how this works, a pool normally has one outcome
- 1:26:01 PM MST
- i dont understand how you can have multiple outcomes for all ppl
- 1:26:14 PM MST
- poll
- 1:26:25 PM MST
- nonnakip
- tsm13: As a fanclub we work together. I try to create polls to solve these issues.
- 1:27:09 PM MST
- tsm13
- yes, it has to have an outcome
- 1:27:31 PM MST
- ognasty
- It depends on what is being polled. For example, I thought the distributions shouldn't be the way you are saying where whatever the majority wants is what we get. I wanted everyone to have a say, so I put forth this average idea. It is a step towards everyone's voice being heard.
- 1:27:33 PM MST
- tsm13
- i dont understand how you can have multiple outcomes to a poll
- 1:27:42 PM MST
- nonnakip
- The nastyfans strength is the openness and communication.
- 1:27:43 PM MST
- tsm13
- absolutely i agree nonnakip
- 1:28:32 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- true and it sounds like Og would not use his votes to just trump any vote as well.
- 1:28:32 PM MST
- with everything being so open it should not be a problem
- 1:28:45 PM MST
- ognasty
- tsm13: The polls are mostly about gauging an overall opinion of the club. The % of seats being owned by operators is going to fluctuate in the future. We cannot start discriminating on people for wanting to help us by operating our equipment.
- 1:29:01 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- That makes sense Og
- 1:29:29 PM MST
- tsm13
- discrimination isn't the right word
- 1:29:30 PM MST
- because u could also say this is positive dicrimation to non operators
- 1:29:49 PM MST
- ognasty
- No, because they have an equal say.
- 1:30:16 PM MST
- tsm13
- i just want to make sure that while we give you our trust, whats to say an operation in future goes rogue
- 1:30:22 PM MST
- *operator
- 1:30:27 PM MST
- ognasty
- whether or not someone is an operator for Nasty Mining has no effect on NastyFans.
- 1:30:37 PM MST
- User16 joined chat
- 1:30:53 PM MST
- tsm13
- ok so do you clasiffy yourself as nasty mining operator or nastyfans member
- 1:31:13 PM MST
- ognasty
- I will try to limit the risk of our operators. If that is a concern it can definitely be addressed.
- 1:31:23 PM MST
- tsm13
- i think its hard to be both, and not have conlict of interest
- 1:31:39 PM MST

- 1:32:47 PM MST
- I was blown away when I got to interview Og and also by the transparent nature of how he and nonnakip operate
- 1:33:40 PM MST
- I do not think there is much to worry about
- 1:33:58 PM MST
- tsm13
- i dunno, i dont think this has been thought out properly i still dont feel the level of comfortability
- 1:34:11 PM MST
- ognasty
- It boils down to trusting me. I am always open and available to address any concerns, publicly or privately.
- 1:34:34 PM MST

- tsm13 I will not drown out small seat owners.
- 1:35:07 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- I hope not I know I am a small shareholder as well. If all goes well we will all be able to share in the growth
- 1:35:25 PM MST
- nonnakip
- tsm13: I do not think the issue is OgNasty as NASTY MINING operator. The issue is a fan with a very large membership. But this can happen anytime in the future. If a new fan joins and buys up the auction we have the same problem but with someone we do not know.
- 1:35:35 PM MST
- ognasty
- In fact, this very open forum is to give you more of a voice and the distribution change is to give you more impact.
- 1:35:39 PM MST
- tsm13
- I trust you, I wouldn't be invested in here if that wasn'y the case

- 1:36:36 PM MST
- Mitch left this chat
- 1:37:41 PM MST

- From previous polls, how often has the outcome of the member’s vote differed from the outcome weighted by share ownership?
- 1:38:33 PM MST
- tsm13
- you know the only security i lost money on was this one...so shouldn't have bought at .6/seat

- 1:39:01 PM MST
- but what will the future hold, are we scaling our policies
- 1:39:15 PM MST
- thats what im trying to think about
- 1:39:24 PM MST
- ognasty
- The decision to purchase the CoinTerra rig, and the decision to ask for a refund on the miner scam, whatever company it was.
- 1:39:27 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- Have you thought of going with and Antmier S2 instead? It is cheaper and they run great. They are shipping now.
- 1:40:07 PM MST
- User19 joined chat
- 1:40:21 PM MST
- tsm13
- they wont be profitable in two months time
- 1:40:22 PM MST
- ognasty
- Asking for a refund when we did, allowed us to take advantage of a huge leap in BTC prices that we would not have had otherwise with those funds. Purchasing the CoinTerra rig is debatable as to whether or not that panned out well, but we would be sitting with next to nothing mining right now had we not gotten it.
- 1:40:23 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- I like cointerra and met them in NYC but they are dropping the ball lately
- 1:40:26 PM MST
- ognasty
- Our BFL rigs are gold. Their performance is going to keep us happy for a while...
- 1:40:47 PM MST
- tsm13
- yep, glad u stuck with them man
- 1:41:02 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- I just hope BFL rigs do not under perform
- 1:42:34 PM MST
- they have had serious heat issues
- 1:42:43 PM MST
- silverfuture
- That's my question, what is our strategy going forward? How is this operation going to scale to keep up with the industrialization of mining?
- 1:42:45 PM MST
- ognasty
- I am glad that we are openly communicating about the conflict of interest. If these become regular monthly Q&A sessions, I would like to continue to discuss those concerns. I will think on ways it can be addressed without discrimination and I urge everyone else to do the same.
- 1:43:04 PM MST
- Strategy going forward is something I love to discuss. :)
- 1:43:20 PM MST
- tsm13
- same, i do this for a living
- 1:43:37 PM MST
- ;-)
- 1:43:39 PM MST
- nonnakip
- ManeBjorn: In beginning you asked about some NastyPool plans. The feature I am working on now is a PPS system. This is complex because I want to minimize pool risks and maximize miner profit. I hope to have it ready in a couple months. I think it will be fun to offer PPS system with P2Pool under the hood.
- 1:43:41 PM MST
- ognasty
- P2PoolPPS! Boom! :)
- 1:44:13 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- Wow that would be huge!
- 1:45:06 PM MST
- ognasty
- I find that extremely exciting. I think that will be the time to start advertising the pool.
- 1:45:17 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- Big time advertising that is for sure
- 1:45:47 PM MST
- Carnth
- Wow, I don't even know how that can be accomplished. That is exciting.
- 1:45:51 PM MST
- nonnakip
- To be honest my main concern is the P2Pool software scalability if NastyPool goes big.
- 1:45:52 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- this is a killer concept
- 1:45:53 PM MST
- ognasty
- Nasty Pool is definitely a big part of the foundation going forward.
- 1:46:11 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- what kind of challenges would it have in scaling?
- 1:46:14 PM MST
- Carnth
- nonnakip I agree, P2Pool doesn't seem to scale well.
- 1:46:16 PM MST
- Maybe a "front-end" would be able to handle the miners and talk directly with P2Pool.
- 1:47:01 PM MST
- nonnakip
- P2Pool is very vulnerable to DOS attacks. And although the code does many checks to make sure every node is behaving... it is very inefficient.
- 1:47:05 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- it cannot be protected from them like standard pools do then? I was not aware of that
- 1:47:41 PM MST
- are there any potential ways to secure it against that better without hurting performance?
- 1:48:01 PM MST
- nonnakip
- I worry I start spending all my time working on P2Pool instead of nastyfans. ;-)
- 1:48:04 PM MST
- Carnth
- Mane, P2Pool is very ineffecint on the back -end of things. P2Pool in general could use a huge overhual.
- 1:48:33 PM MST
- ognasty
- Carnth, stop tempting nonnakip.
- 1:48:52 PM MST
- Carnth
- nonnakip I would be interested the idea you have about it.
- 1:49:10 PM MST
- nonnakip
- I have looking into rewriting P2Pool in C. :-)
- 1:49:12 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- I have seen that some people were complaining that it was not being kept up to date
- 1:49:14 PM MST
- Carnth
- :D @ Og
- 1:49:16 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- that would be a huge job though would it not?
- 1:49:38 PM MST
- Carnth
- nonnakip: That would be so cool. Would you submit it to forrestv?
- 1:49:47 PM MST
- Mane, It would be a big job.
- 1:50:08 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- I bet.
- 1:50:23 PM MST
- nonnakip
- Carnth: Certainly. But it is not realistic. I have a job and a family. Both need me.
- 1:50:24 PM MST
- Carnth
- nonnakip, I understand. Me too.
- 1:50:41 PM MST
- But I can't fathom how you would implement PPS into P2Pool. Fascinating.
- 1:51:09 PM MST
- nonnakip
- I have not worked out all technical details yet but basically it is PPS on top of PPLNS.
- 1:51:57 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- How would that affect the the Pools income though?
- 1:52:36 PM MST
- nonnakip
- The pool income is the merged mining. Bitcoin mining is paid out to miners 100%.
- 1:53:02 PM MST
- User20 joined chat
- 1:53:10 PM MST
- ognasty
- So you asked about our future plans... We have a few opportunities moving forward. The Pool is definitely one of them and the prospects for growth there are impressive.
- 1:53:33 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- PPS can be a killer to the pool though in runs of bad varience
- 1:53:37 PM MST
- variance
- 1:53:51 PM MST
- ognasty
- With BFL shipping us some amazing equipment, and other operators coming on board, I think Mining growth will be impressive as well.
- 1:54:06 PM MST
- nonnakip
- ManeBjorn: Yes I am very aware of this. I have no intention of killing the pool.
- 1:54:11 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- I know you do not. :-)
- 1:54:21 PM MST
- ognasty
- The next thing we have is our coins.
- 1:54:30 PM MST
- Carnth
- I still need to get a coin.
- 1:54:53 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- more coins? :-)
- 1:54:54 PM MST
- Carnth
- :(
- 1:54:56 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- I love the two I purchased. I carry one around with me all the time
- 1:55:14 PM MST
- ognasty
- They have continued to sell and recently have made up nearly 50% of our distributions. This is pretty impressive. We still have ~375 or so coins to sell, so I expect that to continue.
- 1:55:23 PM MST
- I have been working on a new coin.
- 1:55:43 PM MST
- One of the biggest things I hear from people is that they want more seats on a coin.
- 1:56:06 PM MST
- So I have had a 5oz coin designed. My intent is to ask nonnakip to run the same program for a 5oz coin that holds 5 seats.
- 1:56:48 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- More seats per coin could be very cool
- 1:56:59 PM MST
- I love that idea.
- 1:57:11 PM MST
- silverfuture
- Good news on the coins. I gave one to a friend as a gift and he said it was the best gift he has ever received. More seats per coin! yes
- 1:57:31 PM MST
- ognasty
- I am not sure when the proper time would be to release such a coin, but I am considering releasing them annually, which would mean I would look to begin taking orders toward the end of the year.
- 1:57:57 PM MST
- nonnakip
- 5oz coin would be nice. My second favorite silver piece is a 5oz coin. I love that size and weight.
- 1:58:08 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- 5 oz would be cool. I have never had one.
- 1:58:26 PM MST
- I will be saving for one starting now. :-)
- 1:58:38 PM MST
- Carnth
- Mane, 5oz is pretty beefy, you'll love it.
- 1:58:48 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- That being said how many would you want to mint?
- 1:58:53 PM MST
- ognasty
- The front coin design is nearly identical to the 1oz. The back is a little different. It is planned to use the same holograms, but will contain a design around the hologram to the edge of the coin.
- 1:59:00 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- cool deal Carnth
- 1:59:02 PM MST
- ognasty
- There will only be 100 - 5oz coins minted.
- 1:59:14 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- cool so 500 seats total
- 1:59:30 PM MST
- ognasty
- Yes, same as with the 1oz coins.
- 1:59:42 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- what is the projected cost to fans per coin?
- 1:59:46 PM MST
- ognasty
- 500 total seats.
- 1:59:46 PM MST
- I won't even speculate at the cost per coin, but it will be cheaper than 5x the 1oz coin. ;)
- 2:00:18 PM MST
- Carnth
- Would you specualte at "just minting cost?" :)
- 2:00:38 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- that works
- 2:01:05 PM MST
- they will be really worth the cost.
- 2:01:17 PM MST
- ognasty
- Carnth, I have so many ideas floating in my head about pricing these coins, I won't speculate at all. I'm not sure if I should include whatever silver is held at the time in 1oz coins and rebalance the average price, or price this as a separate offering completely.
- 2:01:48 PM MST
- Luckily, I will have a long time to think about it.
- 2:02:14 PM MST
- So I think that the coins also represent an area of growth for us.
- 2:02:31 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- Not too long now I want one. LOL
- 2:02:46 PM MST
- ognasty
- Mining | Pool | Coins - not a bad combo
- 2:02:48 PM MST
- I think we may be able to do more though.
- 2:03:01 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- I think they represent and great growth opportunity
- 2:03:03 PM MST
- with those three streams it is well balanced
- 2:03:19 PM MST
- what other ideas to you have ?
- 2:03:43 PM MST
- nonnakip
- I really like the idea of distributing NASTY MINING to the fans. This might allow NASTY MINING to grow significantly without huge hosting costs.
- 2:04:16 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- It is a good idea and good for all involved.
- 2:04:50 PM MST
- ognasty
- I agree nonnakip, and I will attempt to continue doing so in a manner that limits risk to NastyFans seat owners.
- 2:05:01 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- I do not mind hosting the miner or even more in the future
- 2:05:03 PM MST
- ognasty
- I think it also exposes a problem in the mining trend.
- 2:05:15 PM MST
- Miners are becoming harder and hard to host because they use more and more power and give off tons of heat/noise.
- 2:05:32 PM MST
- I see hosting centers charging as much as $500 per month to host a CoinTerra rig.
- 2:05:49 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- so true that 1 th/s unit i reviewed howls like a jet engine. LOL
- 2:06:00 PM MST
- nonnakip
- I also considering hosting miner(s) for NASTY MINING... as long as they are quiet enough that my spouse does not hear. ;-)
- 2:06:03 PM MST
- ognasty
- I have spoken with a potential partner about setting up some space to play with the idea of opening a datacenter.

- victoria secret takes BTC :) or at least gift cards through gyft
- 2:07:23 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- sweet
- 2:07:31 PM MST
- ognasty
- Carnth, the space is already owned.
- 2:07:43 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- I just interviewed the CEO of eGifter
- 2:07:48 PM MST
- the take BTC, LTC and Doge
- 2:07:57 PM MST
- Carnth
- Og, do you mean that you want to open your own DC to host Nasty and potentialy other people's rigs?
- 2:08:06 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- would you have to buy the space?
- 2:08:08 PM MST
- ognasty
- No costs related to the purchasing of the space would be incurred.
- 2:08:25 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- are you still pursuing alternative energy sources like solar?
- 2:09:10 PM MST
- ognasty
- What I would like, is to find someone willing to participate in a pilot program to have their rig hosted to allow us to test out if it is something we can achieve.

- Distributed hosting is a good medium term plan but nice to see some investigation into data center hosting. It does seem that the costs involved in data centers may even the playing field for home miners a bit, especially in colder climates.
- 2:09:41 PM MST
- ognasty
- ManeBjorn, if this scenario were to take place, I would abandon my alternative energy plans.
- 2:09:45 PM MST
- silverfuture, it would be in a cold climate. AC units wouldn't be required most of the year.
- 2:10:14 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- That makes sense near term. Long term it could be good to bring it up again

- If anyone knows anyone willing to participate in such a pilot program, let me know.
- 2:11:00 PM MST
- I would love it if we were able to get stable USD donations for operating a datacenter.
- 2:11:38 PM MST
- Mitch03
- northwest has the cheapest energy cost something like 2 cents per kilowatt hour if I remember right. places near dams like chelan and such
- 2:12:00 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- That would promote some huge growth and value for seat holders and fans
- 2:12:11 PM MST
- ognasty
- I agree.
- 2:12:28 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- My energy cost is .06 pkh
- 2:12:30 PM MST
- ognasty
- Mining | Pool | Coins | Hosting | ?
- 2:12:47 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- .02 would be great. when they hook us up to the methane generation plant from the farm it will be free.
- 2:13:03 PM MST
- Mitch03
- wow maybe I forgot a decimal :) but anything that lowers the energy cost helps a lot
- 2:13:16 PM MST

- Mining | Pool | Coins | Hosting | Selling Mining Equpiment
- 2:13:44 PM MST
- ognasty
- Not selling mining equipment exactly, but close guess.
- 2:13:59 PM MST
- As some of you have noticed, I have become somewhat of a popular escrow agent on the forums.
- 2:14:18 PM MST
- I see trusted escrow services as being a popular way to do business online in the future.
- 2:14:50 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- with connections that some of us have and as Nasty Mining Grows especially if you are hosting you could sell the gear you host and help offset the purchasing the new updated miners as well as giving the customers a value added purchases
- 2:14:59 PM MST
- there needs to be a trusted escrow service and if it could be built into the site it could be a nice revenue stream
- 2:15:34 PM MST
- you are one of the most trusted people in the entire crypto community
- 2:15:56 PM MST
- ognasty
- I intend to continue to grow my escrow services and build relationship with more resellers like pcfli & Bit-Tech to see if I can make this a more popular service.
- 2:15:59 PM MST
- Perhaps at some point in time, nonnakip will be able to implement an automated escrow service. I would be willing to turn all my escrow business over to it, with all of the proceeds being donated to NastyFans.
- 2:17:07 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- That would be cool
- 2:18:11 PM MST
- ognasty
- Mining | Pool | Coins | Hosting | Escrow This is the path I see us eventually taking towards having a diversified growth plan.
- 2:18:36 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- I know Bit-Tech turned out to be a good seller and your escrow helps him a ton
- 2:18:38 PM MST
- nonnakip
- I like that idea. I do not know when I will get to it. We will see how quickly I get NastyPool finished.
- 2:18:48 PM MST
- silverfuture
- Wow, that's great.
- 2:18:57 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- we should sell miner for hosting or shipping that will help hosting grow faster
- 2:19:04 PM MST
- I have vendors
- 2:19:30 PM MST
- ognasty
- No rush nonnakip. Anything you do for us is always appreciated by all.
- 2:19:47 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- that we could get great pricing from and manufacturers themselves
- 2:19:51 PM MST
- I appreciate all you guys do
- 2:20:07 PM MST
- it is a ton of work
- 2:20:12 PM MST
- ognasty
- ManeBjorn, I think getting them to use us for escrow is a less risky plan. :)
- 2:20:28 PM MST
- I think that pretty much wraps up everything I had to say.
- 2:20:49 PM MST
- Perhaps this can become a regular monthly thing...
- 2:21:03 PM MST
- Anyone have any other questions?
- 2:21:11 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- I agree to a point but if we have miners that can be purchased from Nasty Mining for hosting or shipping many people will buy them and have them hosted.
- 2:21:23 PM MST
- We do not have to keep them on hand
- 2:21:33 PM MST
- Mitch03
- are transcripts of the chat going to be available? I have been trying to catch up but each time a new comment is made it brings it up.
- 2:21:54 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- we can have them drop shipped to the hosting facility or the customer depending on their choise
- 2:22:00 PM MST
- choice
- 2:22:04 PM MST
- Mitch03
- I like the notion of monthly chats
- 2:22:07 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- me too monthly is good
- 2:22:14 PM MST
- ognasty
- I have a transcript.
- 2:22:47 PM MST
- Anyone who wants a transcript of this can email askognasty@gmail.com and I will send it to you.
- 2:23:04 PM MST
- Mitch03
- sweet, thx.
- 2:23:23 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- Thanks for doing this. The transparency and willingness to speak with everyone and work on their concerns and things for the future is refreshing
- 2:23:47 PM MST
- nonnakip
- I could add it to the nastyfans web site somewhere.
- 2:23:48 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- ah yes an archive of them
- 2:24:03 PM MST
- that would be cool
- 2:24:07 PM MST
- I have a question before we end
- 2:24:16 PM MST
- ognasty
- I will send to you nonnakip.
- 2:24:19 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- are there things you would like us to do????
- 2:24:29 PM MST
- HOw can we help more?
- 2:24:47 PM MST
- Mitch03
- I am more then willing to step up anyway I can to help if needed.
- 2:24:51 PM MST
- ognasty
- Mine on our pool. Use our escrow service. Buy our seats. Spread the word!
- 2:25:07 PM MST
- Mitch03
- You guys do a tremendous job and I have nothing but respect and admiration for what has been done thus far.
- 2:25:18 PM MST
- ManeBjorn
- I will thanks.
- 2:25:23 PM MST
- Thanks for the hard work guys I agree with Mitch. +1
- 2:25:38 PM MST
- Mitch03
- I do :) but how can we spread the word more, get a higher profile in the crypto community?
- 2:25:52 PM MST
- nonnakip
- I get very little feedback about nastyfans.org. If there are quirks that you do not like I would appreciate hearing them. PM is always welcome.
- 2:25:54 PM MST
- ognasty
- Mitch03, tell friends and family, contact us to offer to host a unit for us, get people mining on p2pool with us.
- 2:26:35 PM MST
- Carnth
- nonnakip: the website need more flash and animations, and blinking text, and pop-ups.
- 2:26:49 PM MST
- ognasty
- :)
- 2:26:56 PM MST
- nonnakip
- :-P
- 2:26:57 PM MST

- 2:27:27 PM MST
- ognasty
- Thanks everyone for attending! Enjoy your May!
- 2:27:36 PM MST
- Mitch03
- Will do Og, I can host if need be. I am working on moving my miners into a new facility for the summer anyways
- 2:27:43 PM MST
- Thanks for hosting and listening :)
- 2:28:02 PM MST
- silverfuture
- Thanks for doing this, much appreciated.
