Besides a SMC error I need to fix this is all I see in Console.

1/13/14 9:37:44.562 PM MacMiner[22680]: I'm sploding!


Thats after quitting the application. Starting the app, and doing anything during shows nothing in the console.

Bots.

BTC prices do swing a lot. Is the 2.234 BTC an exact dollar amount he wants (2 grand), or does he want 2.234 BTC no matter what the price of BTC is?

Not sure what a PSC is, but if it is legal for you to own it, then it should be legal for you to trade it.

It will take you 45 days to pay off the machine.

You will mine .28btc a day at current difficulty

Im sure you could sell them on this forum, and use an escrow service or a reputable member that does escrow. Thats if you want to go straight to cash.

You would publicly make the post in the correct sub forum
Send the 5K LTC to the escrow service or member
Buyer sends cash or a bank wire to you
Buyer shows you and escrow the money was sent
You confirm
Escrow releases LTC to buyer

Escrow fees are extremely small compared to the fees incurred by going through exchanges, and the time this takes is equally as small.

Welcome!

Trust me, every bit of information you need (and don't need) about BTC will be on this forum.

If you follow the exponential trend line over the last 2 years, $2000 should be in Feb. But there is no telling, we could stagnate at this level for 6 months, then some great news hits, and we catch up to the trend line by the end of the year at 15K.

You do not have to mine for any set period of time. Most pools payout threshold is .01btc, so after you accumulate .01btc it will pay out to your wallet, whichever one you told slush to pay out to.

How shifts work (cycles)

I'm not sure about slush, but the pools I use average out your shares for the last 10 shifts. Shifts are a set amount of time by your pool (7 minutes on gnash.io, and over 1 hour on bitminter presently). Lets say you have 1% of the shares in each of the last 10 shifts, you will get 1% of the coins mined by your pool during that time. Once you stop you will have 9 shifts at 1% and 1 shift with 0%, so your average will be 0.9%.  If you continue to not mine, the next shift will come and go and you will have 8 shifts at 1% and 2 with 0%, now your new average will be 0.8%, so the coins mined during the shift you will get .8% of them.

Thing is, you might mine for 10 straight shifts at 1% of the pool, and your pool not find a single block so nobody receives anything, you may then not mine for 10 straight shifts and they still not find a block, and now your shares are 0% over those 10 shifts, so you would have mined for nothing. They may even solve a block (get bitcoins) the minute after you reach 0%!


All pools average out over time how many coins they mine by their size, just the bigger pools are more consistent in solving blocks during the time you mine, although your payout will be more smaller ones. The smaller pools you would of course get a bigger % of the coins mined, but you may go a while before they solve a block.

Hope that helped some!

You have zero to lose if electricity is free. If you are buying the equipment either way then you are even luckier. That is the definition of free money lol.

Are you waiting until closer to the end of the month to buy? Should be a good buying opportunity right before D-day.

MobileMiner buttons Start and Restart are working for me. The Stop button stops MacMiner, but the button on MacMiner stays the same, so then it automatically thinks it is suppose to be mining and starts up again. Not that I would ever use the Stop button, but just letting you know.

I was wondering if it was possible to have MacMiner automatically start with the FPGA/ASIC window and auto start mining? As in, if I was away from my computer and it restarts, it would automatically start mining. I already have MacMiner to open when OSX starts, I just need it start mining automatically in the ASIC window. I tried restarting my computer as if I was not there, and MacMiner starts as normal, when I press start on MobileMiner nothing happens, I guess because the ASIC window is not open. Even if I open the ASIC window, MobileMiner does not work. I guess MobileMiner only works after a signal is received from MacMiner, stating that MobileMiner can now control it?

If there is already a feature to auto start, then that would clear up everything, because MobileMiner would be active, and if anything happens when away from the computer it will auto mine.

Thanks.... tips coming soon once I get some payouts.

No kidding... If they move onto an alt chain before everyone else does, they will have even more than 51% of that network.

Litecoin would go to the moon. Maybe I should go buy some LTC now

2500W!!! 3 Phase electricity right there

Here is a similar question. Bitminter pool the other day had a block that lasted a day and half. This block was not orphaned. Since it had the same transaction of all blocks during that time, do all the other block that were solved up until then get orphaned? Or do all those transactions in the other blocks get another confirmation, and the bitminter lengthy block just go through as the next block?

If you see one pool jump in hashing power over a short period of time, then that might be manufacturers testing equipment.  Not an easy task though.

google

Source?

Choo-choos can go downhill too right?

If YOU can afford to mine now, do it. If YOU can't afford to mine, don't.

Nobody knows if it will be profitable or not, until YOU sell the coins YOU mine.

Pretty simple.

You should be able to get cheap coins this week. Buying power is out of fuel and the whole China situation will bring the price down.
