I've noticed more folks getting into these "Block Parties" lately. Basically, it's miners teaming up to rent a higher hashrate. I try to join Willi's Block Party whenever I can. I'm thinking about starting a new one to fill in gaps and offer more options down the road.

Wait what? This is news to me. Is all this renting happening through NiceHash? I heard their luck isn't the best.
Yeah, I'm using NiceHash. There are other sites but NH has worked out for me and a few others I know in Block Parties. Starting fresh, so sticking with NH for now. If something better pops up, I’ll consider it.

I’d be down to join if you’re organizing another run. By the way, Merry Christmas to everyone!
Awesome, got you on the list. Merry Christmas to you too!
Count me in too, I'll send over 0.005 BTC once the group fills up. Update: To keep things safe, we can mine on my wallet, so nobody needs to worry about a new user holding a bunch of coins.
Sounds good! You're added to the list.
Wait, are you saying I should send my coins to you or you’ll send an address after we fill? If it's the latter, I'm cool with that. Makes sense to keep things secure.

Yep, the second option. I’ll give you an address for mining, and if we hit a block, I’ll send payouts. Just trying to make this safer for everyone.
Got it, I’m in for 0.005 BTC.
Thanks for clarifying! That helps everyone feel better about the setup.

Respectfully, I think sending funds to your wallet is a risk. You’re looking to gather around $5k, which is no small amount. Maybe we should send to willi9974 instead? OP can still manage things without holding the coins.
I get the concern. I'm doing this because Willi is busy with his Mega Run. If we go through him, it just adds extra work for him. I've joined about 10 runs with Willi before, so you can verify I’m legit.
I totally trust kaulfuss, Willi, and Mino Raiola. Let me in for 0.005 BTC!
Hey, can I also get in for 0.01 BTC?
You're on the list.

I want in too. I’ll send my coins when I’m confirmed.
Perfect! You’re added. This is shaping up.
