1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Looking for 3080 & 3090 cards on: September 30, 2022, 11:26:18 PM
I suggest you to post here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=75.0

This is only a section to talk about mining, but above is the link to >  Marketplace > Goods > Computer hardware
You can post a thread to buy hardware, and you can look there too if anyone is selling

Thanks, I did that as well but I figured many might overlook it there.

I am in NJ,USA

I will check to see exactly how many of them I have and I will go lower than 7480. If you are USA based.

I may or may not have the boxes.

I'm based in EU, I handle import clearance etc. so it's straight forward, just box 'em and ship 'em.
Looking forward to hear what you have available.

I'm looking for people who are looking to get rid of RTX3080 & 3090 cards now that mining is dead.
Please only PM if you have at least 8 units of the same model.

Sounds like a plausible scenario to me, there's definitely an incentive to ruin the largest cryptocurrency to promote regulation.
Even with 51% they'd have enough if they are creating a separate chain altogether instead of competing for every block.
They easily could have stockpiled enough equipment or older gear that was taken out of use to get the additional single digit % needed.

Although as a counterargument, one would expect the decline in hashrate would have happened much faster if it was coordinated.
5  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Proof of Capacity's existence got validated by Bram Cohen's Chia on: May 10, 2021, 01:27:58 PM
Well, they do not even mention Burstcoin  in their paper:

https://eprint.iacr.org/2017/893

Yeah we are aware. They want to make it look like that they are the first in Proof of Capacity. But they do mention and criticize it in the FAQ of their site.

All attack vectors on PoC will be removed once Burst upgrades to PoC2.

PoC2 explained: a needed security upgrade

.


So now that Chia (finally) went online, can you compare the two again?

Given that the current (low) estimate of power usage of Chia is closing in on 5MW (1/1000th of Bitcoin), it looks like they definitely failed to make a 'green' coin.

I hope your funds weren't in there (in fact never ever leave your valuable assets in any exchange in case you are going to be off trading for a long time)
These crypto exchanges are like unstable weather, you never know what kind of requirements or regulations they can come up with tomorrow.

The personalised links could have been tailored for the territory you come from since different territories have slightly different regulations.

A few months ago I removed most of my funds which might have triggered something. I have been a verified user for several years though.


I don't see many users getting the emails asking for the source of funds though so I guess my account is fine. I don't see any reason to panic if they ask for the source but I'd like to know if a lot of us received the email and goes on without worries after submitting documents. I checked my email which I find nothing is sent to me about it.

I have not logged to my account for a year but I have few tokens I kept like ADA but nothing much.

Check the document for the source of funds, it'd be impossible for me to even provide the documentation asked as some of the platforms I've traded on don't exist any longer.
Do you think it's normal one would need to provide bank statements showing employment income on demand of an exchange? Or retirement income receipts?
Luckily I caught it in time to remove my remaining assets.

Good choice. A little unusual that they still let you withdraw despite asking you for all this information though.

At first I thought they didn't let me, it luckily was only an issue because I gave a segwit address which they don't support still.
I've been a fully verified customer for several years though so would not expect them to go so far as to freeze my funds without any notice, luckily I caught it in time since my access will be blocked in a few days.

I received following mail from Bittrex:

Thank you for being a valued customer of the Bittrex Global platform.

Per our protocols, we are required to obtain source of funds information from select users. Please fill out the form which you will find at --personalised link was here-- and submit it along with the respective supporting documents within 7 days in order to continue utilizing your Bittrex Global account. This is similar to what other cryptocurrency exchanges in regulated jurisdictions require.

The link was to this pdf: (image taken from a post from another user on Reddit who received the same)

I've barely used the account the past year, I think they try to disable inactive accounts to seize the assets.
The account was used more intensively before that and has been properly verified for at least 2 years.

The fact that they use personalised links is quite disturbing, I definitely won't be using Bittrex any longer.
9  Economy / Exchanges / Re: Bittrex - source of funds on: June 05, 2020, 08:00:21 PM
I'd tell them to fuck off and abandon the account myself, or I'd charge them for my time in getting the info together not that I could be arsed to get shit notarised, but I doubt it's massively out of the ordinary since they now have fiat dealings. They probably spring it on random customers so they can show the authorities that they're being proactive when they come snooping.

Other exchanges do the same thing every now and then. I've only ever had a bank do it once which says something, and I made it all up and they went away.

Are there any funds in there right now?

I removed all funds as soon as I saw the mail, I've read about a few people having the same thing (not recently though) and they got their funds frozen despite complying. I've got little interest in getting into a never-ending struggle to maintain control over my own funds.


Asking for sources fo funds is a different story though. Is there any reason that you think why or could you possibly be linked to someone they think to suspect?

I moved & sold most of my funds several months ago, might have triggered something (eg. they are forced by -fill in favourite intelligence agency- to share transactions to or away from their platform adding up to a certain amount).
Little doubt that they had to make a proverbial pact with the devil to enable fiat trading.

I used to be quite fond of Bittrex and Bill Shihara but this has hastily changed my opinion.
What really disturbs me is the fact that they use personalised links in the mail so they can easily track which users are complaining about it online & copy paste the mail.

Anyone else had this lately? I've barely used the account the past year, I think I'm either under investigation or they try to disable inactive accounts to seize the assets.

The fact that they use personalised links is quite disturbing. I couldn't find many others having similar issues.
11  Economy / Speculation / Re: What is happening ? on: March 12, 2020, 12:14:56 PM
Well should the logical reaction not be that assets like gold and bitcoin go up?
12  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Bitmain S11 20.5 TH on: December 14, 2018, 10:11:01 AM
It looks more like selling old hardware they never planned to release in an attempt to stay in business.

Bitmain not looking too good...

This works like a charm, except on my Asus strix 1080ti cards.
It seems to pull down the core clock as soon as I start the pill.

Why not use nicehash? You are offering double of nicehash?

16  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: XMR-stak-JK 2.4.4 Compiled with no devfee on: June 27, 2018, 04:08:29 AM
@JaredKaragen   Did you ever compile XMR-STAK-2.4.8 ?  Thx

2.4.5 is all that fierce-uk has released thus far.....    is it another fork or something?




Update:
Im working on my 5th attempt on compiling 2.4.5.    VS 2017 is uninstalling as I type this, and Ill have to rip out all IDE's and start over by installing fresh... again.

Probably going to DL and install the latest version of the cuda toolkit as well.... hopefully they play nice.

Try CUDA 9.1, you'll slow it down with 9.2 unless you know what you're doing.

18  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Antminer S9 - 23 TH/s possible? on: June 15, 2018, 11:37:42 AM
Although the title may have persuaded you to simply say 23TH/s is impossible, the rumour was started by Kristy (OhGodAGirl) in this interview;

https://youtu.be/A3i3jpJqgoo?t=10m8s

What do you guys think? Is this even remotely possible? As far as I've seen, anything above 15TH/s needs some exotic form of cooling and has insane power usages with much lower efficiency.
19  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: GPU Mining will NEVER die - List of GPU only Champions on: May 16, 2018, 04:53:23 PM
I really can't believe that luxCoin devs said that they try to remain FPGA resistant! That's awesome, respect for LuxCoin. LuxCoin devs are serious, i will visit their post soon.

Bitcoin gold & private have an ASIC.
Monero's slightly changed algo is already being mined by FPGA.
Bitcoin Gold and private will fork soon. At current rate, FPGAs won't increase difficulty of Monero for gpu miners anytime soon.

Also I do want to pay my respect to Ethash which was really the hardest algo to make a ASIC for. Ethash bought power to GPU mining, can't really talk trash about it even if the ASIC has been developed.

'Soon'... Well let's add them to the List of GPU only Champions when they have forked perhaps? And I wouldn't go so far as to say FPGA's won't increase the difficulty of Monero, they are already increasing the difficulty of Monero... But you don't need to take my word for it, you can be surprised all over again when the hashrate drops over 50% next fork and bounces back in a matter of weeks due to quick adoptation of FPGA & ASIC.

ASIC development cycle is getting shorter and shorter and FPGA/ASIC hybrids will be the doom of GPU mining. Good riddance as it's a waste of energy to use GPU for such purpose, the main reason people want to keep GPU mining alive is because of greed as they would see their hardware become obsolete. And I'm saying that as a GPU miner.
20  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: GPU Mining will NEVER die - List of GPU only Champions on: May 16, 2018, 03:55:27 PM

List of GPU only mine-able champions include:
*List updated daily

-Monero
-Sumokoin
-Bitcoin Gold
-Bitcoin Private
-Bitcoin Z
-Safe Coin
-Ravencoin
-LUX
-Haven



Long live Cryptocurrency freedom!
