Yeah, MAYBE it will someday, nobody knows when. There's no date, there's no final decision.

Its next month.

No I have less than 20 addresses currently. Where is the GAP limit setting to increase it on the offline computer?

Completely normal.

280X slows down with every new DAG

How it can be?

One 280x Gigabyte - 80 mh.

I've attach a couple of files with screenshots and log files with reports for 6-7 hours.



Your memory straps are messed up. Your real hashrate is like 10mh/s. I had this happen also.

It looks like EIP-186 is going to become a reality.

https://github.com/ethereum/pm/issues/17

EIP 186 Comments from chat channel

Vitalik: "I want to re-bring up EIP 186; I think we are more than secure enough with ETH at these levels (or even at $50) and wasting more electricity than some countries is tragic so we could use a decrease"

Avsa: "The plan for Casper is to start with a slow transition from PoW, right? Is the idea to have a slowly decreasing reward? Maybe if we set a slowly decreasing schedule now - which then has a slight uptick when PoS comes around, it might be an actual incentive for miners to move to the PoS chain when that is ready"

"I am also tentatively in favor of it with we can justify it in terms of incentiziation. I am against it if it’s heavily dependent on ether price or if it’s about pure economic planning
Maybe what is needed for this conversation to move forward is a clear proposal with numbers backing it up: reduce to X on Y date then changes to N when PoS comes etc. We also need to account for black swans: what if the new ice age comes, Casper isn't ready and ether is under $20?"

Nick: "My own opinion on this has evolved; I'm tentatively in favor of at least a modest reduction.
Exactly because it's a step towards the reduced issuance Casper is likely to have."

Thanks for all your replies.

@adaseb, were you mining different currencies or just one? The market was vastly different: If I look at exchange rate at this moment, most money did not exist or were extremely low :/

@target: a bank manager did not invest 300k€ in his own bank.

How are mining farm making money? There is plenty of farm renting hash, I know that they are taking a bit more of what you are actually mining but I mean, they are running fine.

I tried to find some numbers to see how profitable are structures like Genesis mining but cant find anything.

I was mining the most profitable currency at the time. Yes there is like 10x more market cap but there is also 10x more GPUs.

10328  Bitcoin / Electrum / Cold Storage after the default 20 Addresses? on: June 30, 2017, 05:19:37 PM
I am using Electrum with 2 computers as a cold storage.

On the offline computer I don't see any addresses other than the default 20, on the online computer a new BTC address appears as soon as one is used up, how would I be able to create a transaction with an address not in my cold storage address list since its never connected online?

These aren't the newer Z170 motherboards, they can support 6 GPUs easily, the OP probably ended up hooking something incorrectly and damaging the motherboard.
10330  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Help with Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD3 . Slots 1x does not work, help me on: June 30, 2017, 08:59:40 AM
6 GPUs should work no problem. You probably damaged the board somewhere if there was "some burning". You might of accidently connected the USB riser backwards in the 16x slot and burnt some lanes. The onboard LAN shouldn't burn like that.

These are very great motherboards, got one from the litecoin days. It works with a $5 CPU even.

10331  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Be a miner as a dayjob... on: June 30, 2017, 08:40:05 AM
Please take out of the equation cards supplies.
Initial invest 300K
If I put 120 rigs online -->Any algo -->150$/month
150*120= 18000$
300000/18000 = 17 months

I know the difficulty is rising that why I say 150$ (I make way more than that today on eth) and talking about any altcoin, even Nicehash.
Eth is ephemeral as PoS will come but there is many other coins...

Do you think it is possible to maintain that level, when mining any altcoin/algo until Mid2018?

99% chance that its not going to be that profitable until Mid 2018, maybe till the end of the year however it might.

Let me put it to you this way

At the end of 2013, a Radeon R9 280X made about $10/day in Nov-Dec 2013. $7.50/day in Jan 2014. $5/day in Feb 2014. $2.5/day in March 2014, $1.50 in April 2014, in the summer of 2014, it made ~$1/day, at the end of 2014, it made $0.25/day.

Why? Because you are not the only one "thinking" of this idea and got money to throw around. You got competition.
10332  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Drop of hashrate for Polaris cards incoming on: June 29, 2017, 10:21:27 PM
What if I sold an RX480 for $350, and bought a 1070 for $310?

Was that stupid too?

If you can actually get it sold for that price then go ahead. But you will still need to add money to get the 1070.

All over Craiglists its the same people over and over posting their RX gpus for $300-400 each, and they repost everyday and not a single one sold. Aside from a few lucky people, most people can't sell their RX gpus for $400.
I'm having no problem selling 580s for $400-$450 within 24 hours of posting. Was a no brainer for me especially since I've been getting 1080s cheaper than that

Even if I could sell my RX 480 for the exact same price of a NVIDIA GTX 1070, I rather not deal with the headache of eBay/Craiglist people. And its not worth the hassle to remove GPUs, add GPUs, configure GPUs, etc. I'm not a newbie, been mining for way too long and "assembling" rigs is no longer fun for me, its boring.

In the end I don't really care about making an extra $50 per GPU per year.

Like the previous poster said, the real money is in trading cryptos.
Over the next 12 months I'd be very surprised if the total profit per 1080 is only $50 more than the total profit each of my 580s would have gotten

Well in 12 months instead of making $5/day you might be making $0.50/day so by then its going to be a completely different situation.

I wish you luck and everything with your GTX 1080 and so, but for the old buggers like me, I rather just leave my rigs as they are.

$25 million is actually consider low for ETH ICOs. The Bancor was like $150,000,000 and the one last week, Status or something was another $90,000,000. Its really crazy these large amounts that are being raised.
Those were max cap. Did they able to raise that amount?

I think many people that are investing in these ICOs are the ones who bought ETH at $10 and figure it might be worth the risk.
Part of the funding is definitely coming from owner's own pocket to be a breaking news in market. Apart from that there are also people of similar mindset in early bitcoin world, who invested in scams made by Pirate@40 or Tradefortress. These are greedy hands of every crypto community. They dont create the HODLer class.

That's basically another theory.

Make a huge $100 million ICO, buy like $50 million of it yourself to create demand, at the same time hedge your ETH with Bitfinex/Poloniex incase its value drops, and after ICO is done the funds are released to you and you get your original ETH back.

Wow another dice casino just launched by a newbie.

OP, can you please sign a message showing proof of funds to make sure you won't go insolvent? And please have at least >25 BTC in capital available to operate this site.



And as usual whenever someone requests that the site provide signed proof that they have sufficient BTC funds in their cold storage, the posts are almost always ignored.

For your protection, unless signed funds aren't provided I would becareful in betting with this website. Might lead to solvent issues like it does with many new gambling sites.
10335  Economy / Gambling / Re: ChipMixer.com betting is now provably fair on: June 29, 2017, 10:12:45 PM
I guess I somewhat understand the point of this.

For starts since its a mixing service, it obviously has the capital to pay out everybody since their BTC cold storage is large.

Secondly is that for most people the only way to mix is to split the amounts. Because if you mix 1 BTC, and 5 minutes later 1 BTC minus fees arrives somewhere else, then it can be easily traceable.

So you have to split them and when you split them with different time frames its very difficult if not impossible to detect the destination. What this site does is, instead of splitting you can just gamble it away, so if you gamble away 20% of your deposit, it will be hard to track the other 80%. Or you can be lucky and win 20% and in the same way would be difficult to track.

I with this site and service luck.

So they really did to use scam license? In this case, there is only 2 possibilities, first they also got scam by this license which cost them something so it is hard for them to get another legit license. And the second, they already know it but still using it because it is cheaper and try to scam people around? But they never confirm anything yet here
Second is the case: All the Curacao eGaming 1668/JAZ licensees know that their licensor do not supervise anything. It is a license to cheat so to say.

Make your calculation: For the first 2 years they have to pay $5,000 per month. Thereafter it is negotiable, let us say $3,500 per month.

If you take a look at the 303 BTC slot win = $300,000 at that time, with one cheat they pay the licensing fees for 7 years!

It is a win win situation! The licensor gets $3,000 to $5,000 per month for almost nothing and the licensees can defraud the license fees from unaware customers or investors.

And yes, all the licensees never confirm anything or speak about this because it is a secret agreement!

Its pretty much no different than the Better Business Bureau that we have here. No idea if you heard of it but its suppose to be an organization that regulates certain businesses or businesses which had a great reputation, etc.

However it turns out that any business can join by paying a fee and get to display their logo. However when it comes to disputes the BBB doesn't actually do anything.

Hey Claymore, first of all thank you for making your awesome client! 

I just released Vega but it is not working with your miner currently.  Can you please add support for Vega?  I can't wait to see the hashrates we can get.




Let me know if you need anything.

LS


Wow you must be the first one to try mining with a Vega GPU.

What speed are you getting with ZEC?
