I am going to cover two milestones with this message. We crossed 1 million ranges checked over night and we are hours away from passing 3 percent. Average range completion rate is indicating a predicted whole percent being completed every 44.14 days right now. Also a reminder that this pools percentage is ACTUAL checked ranges not hopeful assumptions like some others.
Congrats everyone for reaching 4% completion. At current speed we can expect the next percent to happen in about 49 days.
There was a transformer that blew and took out power for the server today for about three hours. Everything is back up and running.
We are now over 5%. Congrats! We also have officially checked more keys then in the previous 64 bit pool in about 1/3 the time. At current speed we should hit 6% in about 44 days.
Server Power out once again. They are prepping for a major road construction project near the business that I have the server hosted at and they are doing a lot with the electrical grid in the area. I really hope these power interruptions stop soon. Expected to be up in about 2 hours hopefully less.
I switched from the Bitpay api to the Coinbase api to scrape bitcoin's current price for the pool's calculations.
6 Percent is here. At current speed we should see 7 percent in about 43 days. GO TEAM!!
I just updated the download section of the pool. Hopefully making it easier to understand. I also created an easy to use auto setup script for vast instances. I was inspired by Ervings on that. Try it out and let me know what you think. Also please use the provided reference link when creating a vast account or buying credit. Thanks everyone!
Congrats to everyone for crossing the 7% mark. At current speed we should see 8 percent in 10.3 days. :)
Lets spin the wheels of this motha! Bottle neck fixed. I increased submission time by a factor of about 1000.
I just uploaded version 66.1 of the vanity client for Windows, Linux, and Vast.
Biggest new feature is sequential range mode. The client will pick a random start range and then run ranges sequentially as long as you let it run. Put seq on line 5 instead of ranges number to enable.

Put up a link to some 66 bit Pool Swag. Proceeds go towards supporting the pool. I am also planning to do a give away for some of the swag. Details will come to celebrate our 3 millionth range being checked soon. I am thinking about selecting 10 ranges at random and who ever completes those ranges will get free stuff for fun.
I'm a little late here but congrats on passing 9 percent. At current speed we should see 10% in about 7.5 days.
I have been working on client private key encryption the last week or so and am going to be slowly rolling it out to the download section. Right now I have it for Nvidia Linux and Vast configurations. Shortly after I have it working for all client versions I will faze out legacy plain text submissions. More info to follow.
The 66.2 Linux 22.04 Bitcrack client is up on the pool now with the new features. I also removed the ability to select nvidia cards since they are better off ran with vanity. Feed back is welcome as always.
