102  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: SCRYPT ASIC miner ready. BTC+LTC ASIC miner, 1THS(1000GHS) Bitcoin miner, 950W. on: February 22, 2014, 02:00:05 PM
Looking at the OP in its current state, as the first time I've come to this thread, I've got to say it's unclear what products are available and what their specifications (hashrate, power consumption etc.) are. It seems that new products have been added but its unclear what the text refers to. The entire post needs to redone to be made much more clear.

Looking elsewhere at OP's posts, its confusing to find price and availability information about this hardware.

Based on these communication issues, it's enough to turn me away as a buyer. Best of luck.

hi everyone, im sorry if this has been asked but i want to set up my dogewallet to be a node for the network, there arent many in the UK so i thought what the hell

now for bitcoin i know you just unblock port 8333 on your touter but is it the same for dogecoin?
do i need to set up the dogecoin.conf so it knows the remote port?

how do i know if the node is working?
and i know a lot of the time you have to pay a transfer fee which goes to the node but how does that even work?

And currently my main system is on a ssd, i have a couple of 2TB hdd's sitting in my system, how do i tell the files to be stored there instead of in my roaming folder?

thanks for any answers,
sorry if its been asked before

Regards,
Jamie

Not sure with router. Most router/modems now have things like UPnP and NAT that mean we don't have to worry about opening/forwarding ports manually.

For your directory question, here is an example on how to do it, but with another wallet. just change for dogecoin from this example (this is the target path field in the properties of a shortcut to the wallet .exe):

Code:
C:\protoshares\protoshares-qt.exe -datadir=C:\ProtoShares1

Interesting the LEPA 1600 gave you problems.  They're sold out everywhere for people making 5x280x rigs.

The rig was failing all the time (rebooting) as soon as the fans started to go over 70%.
After a lot of trials, we went to the conclusion that if we use 1x powered riser connected to a molex then it will always fail.

We tried with 2 Lepa 1600 and we had the same problem. I replaced by a Corsair, and all went well.
I'm using the Lepa with 16x non powered risers and all is fine.

I may have done something wrong, but my conclusion is that the Lepa 1600W cannot bring enough amp on its 5v line (I know, sounds dubious)

Eric


So in all of your tests, you may have been using a faulty (arguably DOA, if new) PSU. It's hard to draw any valid conclusions from this if n=1

When my video driver crashes sometimes one video card will display a crazy hashrate. I know there's a reboot on "if under X hashrate" option, is there anyway to do a reboot "if over x hashrate"?

Sounds like your card and/or mining parameters are not stable: not necessarily a problem with cgwatcher.

Maybe you should ask in the relevant sub-forum if it persists.
107  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The demise of DOGE and how it is affecting our income on: February 16, 2014, 06:46:26 AM
For everyone looking for new opportunities, you can check our pool at http://manicminer.in

It is the first merged mining pool with scrypt coins. Let me explain you how it works. You can mine all of these coins at the same time:

LiteCoin
PesetaCoin
UnitedScryptCoin
HunterCoin
OrgCoin
CatCoin
DogeCoin
PotCoin
DigitalCoin

Basically there are some main chain coins, which are LTC, DOGE, CAT, DGC and POT. Lets say you mine at 1 Mhash/s, these power will be split in these main coins, and the pool does it in a way so you are mining the most profitable one. At the same time, you are getting the other coins for free at full speed. You would be mining Pesetacoin at 1Mh/s, Huntercoin at 1Mh/s, UnitedScryptCoin at 1Mh/s, Orgcoin at 1Mh/s and all of the main chain coins at 1Mh/s. Obviously this increases the profit by a lot. You just have to give it a try and make numbers Wink

If someone has any questions just send me a PM

Sounds too good to be true, so it probably is. What's the catch?
108  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: The demise of DOGE and how it is affecting our income on: February 15, 2014, 02:26:15 PM
I think the problem here is that the dogecoin community has a larger-than-usual proportion of miners who have never before mined scrypt coins or any cryptocurrency for that matter. This is partially thanks to the immense exposure caused by /r/dogecoin and a few of the newer mining subreddits that seemed to come out of nowhere overnight.

As a result the response to the block reward halving event has been less than spectacular. A lot of new miners are confused at how their instantaneous profitability calculations can be halved overnight, when in reality they should be looking at the mid to distant future value of the coin and not what they can cash out (to BTC) on a daily basis.

Now is the time where dogecoin will have to stand on its two feet as a lot of the new miners scramble to what they think - and hope - will be more profitable coins. I say good luck to them, it's all part of the adventure, but for now I see no reason not to keep mining DOGE.

Where is the link to the maths website with the world records for the varieties of primes? Heaps of them are from primecoin. The link is in the two primecoin mega threads somewhere for sure.

110  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: Invictus Innovations ProtoShares Cheat Sheet | CPU Mining on: February 14, 2014, 07:02:29 AM
Well you's have now entered a stupid realm where CPU mining is no longer profitable, and GPU mining is less profitable than scrypt coins.

The result is that only the true believers and coin supporters and perhaps those who don't know how to do calculations will be left mining this coin.

I'm getting ready to build my first open air rig, I've noticed one thing...none of these open air rigs appear to have a power button. How do you turn the unit on?

the magical paperclip.

A lot of boards now have power and reset buttons on the board itself... or its not to hard to salvage a wired button from any old PC!

Hey, when using Cgwatcher with a .conf file, is there a way to add the commands somewhere?
"setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100 setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1"

You can keep them in the batch file and just tell CGWatcher to use the batch file instead of pointing it to the miner's executable. In Profile Manager, for "Miner Path" set it to the batch file instead of cgminer.exe or bfgminer.exe.

You can permanently add them as a Windows Environment Variable so that you do not need to add them to batch files and other nonsense.

Hi
Omfg I love this program, exactly what I needed  Wink
Could you please add 1 feature though?
I mine with 4 cards on 1 rig, I own 3 of them, my dad owns 1 is there a way that you can make it so that you can get multiple profiles to run at once instead of juan?
Thanks again!


Why wouldn't you just accumulate all the funds, and then send him 1/4th. Assuming the cards were the same performance. Why complicate it with software profiles etc???

Send him a copy of the CSV output from your wallet software as a record, if needed.

You can't say it's a trust issue, because what you are doing currently could be easily manipulated in your favor too.
114  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: MtGox blames Bitcoin protocol problem for BTC withdrawal issue on: February 10, 2014, 11:39:56 AM
Just so I'm 100% clear on the development of this situation:

1. Over one year ago a (minor?) issue with the protocol was identified and some general information was added to the bitcoin wiki. http://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Transaction_Malleability‎, a publicly viewable resource.

2. Engineers at Mt Gox, historically the most significant - and for a long time the largest - bitcoin exchange in the world, either were not aware of this information (on the public wiki? really), disregarded the issue, and/or failed to implement a solution on their end to prevent or at least monitor and warn of this kind of activity taking place between their backend and their customers.

(edit: From my understanding of their statement, it would seem that the attacker would start a support ticket, and inform Gox that their funds are not recieved. Gox would investigate on their end, only to find that their records show this is true, when in fact, it is not true, and the attacker already has the funds. It would then be sent again. This seems like the kind of thing that could be avoided by careful training of support staff.)

3. An attacker or group(s) of attackers realize that a vulnerability exists with some exchanges, or, at least just Mt Gox. Presumably they "extract" some funds without Mt Gox realizing right away.

4. Mt Gox audits their wallet balances and finds a discrepancy.

5. Mt Gox continues its hold on withdrawals, until the issue, known for over 12 months, is resolved with great urgency by the devs.

How very curious indeed!

  • If stopping cgminer/bfgminer using CGWatcher causes a bluescreen or crash, you can set CGWatcher to kill the miner process instead of shutting it down. Shutting the miner down using the 'quit' command, as CGWatcher has always done, usually causes a crash if you're using the new R9 series AMD cards because of changes to how they work with ADL. Setting CGWatcher to kill the process instead means the miner never gets a chance to shutdown and therefore doesn't crash. This does mean though that the miner is not able to restore clock speeds, fan speeds, and voltages to their original values. I recommend trying sgminer, a new cgminer fork focused solely on GPU mining, as it has reportedly fixed this problem.
I can reproduce these BSOD with my heterogeneous mixture of 1x 6870 and 2x 7790.

Why care?

Starts a fire and destroys everything you own? (Hope you had insurance.)

Even with insurance it'll work out to be a huge loss of your time and your money because there are always unforeseen costs that weren't considered.

That's why we care.

milone - Lately I've noticed that my "Pause Mining" button causes my machine to immediately reboot.  I'm on Windows 7.  This just started happening without having changed any settings or updated versions.  I was running 1.3.5.0.  I tried updating to the latest (1.3.5.3), and the same problem persists.  Is there a way I can send you debug info from a log even after the machine reboots?  Please let me know, thanks!

I get this too. Your computer is actually BSOD'ing but you've got it set to auto restart (default setting) in windows recovery advanced options. If you have it disabled, you'll see that it's giving generic radeon driver blue screens.

is there a complete guide how to setup cgwatcher? It seem i cant figure out what i'm missing I have everything setup so I think that I have.

But when I start i get an error



it seems but i'm not sure that I can't connect to my pool. I use this one https://pool.dogechain.info/index.php?page=gettingstarted . So stratum+tcp://stratum2.dogechain.info:3333 is correct for URL:PORT setting in pool?

I don't know the exact reason why your problem is occurring, but you are confusing connections to your pool with connections on the localhost for the API which the mining software and CGwatcher use to communicate.

If you can run cgminer and it works correctly with your pool, and you've indicated the correct file paths to the exe and the .conf file with cgwatcher, then I'm not sure what the problem could be.

Also you should add additional pools as backups because invariable at some stage ALL pools will go down due to various reasons. I try to have at least two.

hello my friend

great work

i want it to be run when windows startup without a user login to console.
my computer is protected with password, so startup folder or registry key will not execute programs without user being loged in
is it possible to run cgwatcher or cgminer as a windows service ?


Does a mining PC require a password? Can you enable auto login (while leaving password on)?
