You mean that has to be asic?

There are 2 people on this forum that have more than 150k MH/s

Gigavps has 4 BFL minirigs and a giant GPU farm.
Total more than 200k MH/s.
Darkice has 6 BFL minirigs. I don't know how big his GPU farm is.
But he has at least 150k MH/s.

Asic is not out yet

You may be correct. Perhaps they are doing tests for the new protocol.

Apparently so....

Per the #gpumax channel topic on freenode:

<pirateat40> GPUMAX will be down on 10/08 at 12:00 AM CST.  The system may or may not come back up depending on the new owners.

1) Why are you calling it 200k MH/s? Wouldn't 200GH/s be easier? Sorry, pet peeve.

2) A large FPGA and/or GPU farm could get that high, so it's not unreasonable.

It couldn't be a proxy pool mining, no way that could EVER happen. ::)
Its not like someone could get a bunch of miners at their pool and proxy that work to another pool. ID10T

i think u are right, this is like a big miner with some 8 minirigs@25gh or something making some quick BTC or so but nobody nows what it,s? it really kicked in and also is very steady @200gh.... :o

not sure if you are being sarcastic or misguided.

ABCpool is a proxy that does just that - it shares its load between several pools and has no bitcoind of its own to mine against
there are several other proxy services, tho from my understanding they are more hopping proxies than anything and do not call themselves "pool".

I cant see the point of using something like gpumax or hashpower.com where you pay >100% PPS to mine on a PPS pool that pays <100% (sure fire no-brainer loser that). Those gambling sites are for use with pools that have variance or luck - that's what ppl gamble on.

people do have this much hashpower - get used to it, fpga and fpga minirigs are still being delivered.
not sure if these threads have any value or are just about envy - how does it really matter who has how much hashrate?

Also recently BTCGuild is one of 2 pools supporting stratum - designed for high hashrate hardware - why wouldn't someone finding it works well switch their whole farm to stratum? instead of the more anonymous way of loadsharing between several pools.

I dont think threadstarter is envy. I think he only thought that this must imply someone has the first asics ready.

I guess you missed the bit about paying more than 100%PPS to mine on a pool that pays 95%PPS (5% fee). it isn't gpumax - thier IRC chanel is pretty much dead but what is being said is "no leasing" lately.

yeah sigh, lately any time someone notices a high hashrate user a new thread pops up asking the same question, also all of the ASIC manufacturers have said they will not be burning in or testing on main net.

 NOTICE: GPUMAX will continue to operate as usual until further notice. There has been no sale or change of ownership.

This is stated on #gpumax

Why would anyone mine there?  They invented that BS IOCoin and IXCoin and fucking some other bullshit-troll-coin.  If I had an ASIC, I'd go anywhere else.

With respects the motivation for alt crypo-c's

no one is perfect :D

Nothing ventured nothing gained.

I did not invent either of those.  I made a copy of the BTC Guild frontend for IOCoin and SolidCoin back when the altcoin fad was going strong.  Pools were losing significant speed to altcoins at the time, so it was just logical to setup a pool for the altcoins.

But you have only: Total hashing power:   108.9GH/s

So its probably someone other am i wrong?

There is also my personal equipment, not everything is allocated to Pyramining. I have in total ~400GH/s.

400 Ghash wow...so when asics do come, what will happen to the old equipment?  Unless it's all BFL stuff that will be traded up.

He's lying.  Nobody in the world has personal gear like that.  FPGAs aren't fast enough and at Radeon 5830 speeds, 400GH/s is over 1200 cards, all with insane overclocking.  Even industrial places have trouble getting that much electricity (242,000 watts) not to mention cooling problems and management problems.

Post by: SebastianJu on October 14, 2012, 09:16:50 AM
Desolator... so you dont think that he is the original guy running the site pyramining.com? If he is... cant you imagine that this business could let you leave with hardware after a year that is yours while the investors got their payment already back? Im not sure if its possible but i think maybe it is.
Regarding the power... maybe his farm is quite beneath a geothermal power station in iceland? So he has the power and probably for a low price?

I dont have the knowledge if that can be.

not possible?  could it be 400/25= 16 minirigs from BFL? or some kind of combo?   ::) ::) ::) ::)

He did say that "There is also my personal equipment, not everything is allocated to Pyramining. I have in total ~400GH/s."

They formally opened in May and that's $244,720 in rigs @ 20,000 watts not allocated to his business.  That seems unusual.  I just don't get or care to attempt to get how pyramining works but when things start not adding up in a business that sounds odd already, I stay far away.

Their website says something about ASIC pre-orders too???  From who?  Speculative mining spots being sold or something?

Plus, who would use a mining pool, and not the best one fee-wise by any stretch of the imagination, for 200GH/s?  I think he's covering for someone mining ASICs or something else screwy is going on.

BFL is probably mining with your preordered rigs. Then after 1 or 2 months of straight mining and huge profit theyll send you you rigs. Win win for them.

I was thinking the same thing, and I posted a few times about them using their own stuff.

ASIC's real? Possibly, them using the equipment before shipping? Probably. Customers being pissed off? Probably not, at least you didn't lose $30,000 by getting scammed.
