Still no answer to the past three emails I sent.

Feel sorry to you guys, was just about to pay him for 300MHS miner, but found out he is only  reseller. Then I asked him question if his returns policy is same as hashra? Haven't got clear answer from him. Luckily dropped this idea.

BTW there is a lot of scam this days, well know manufacturers just vanishing from market. Any of you knows reliable ASIC Scrypt hardware shop?

In the US -- Ebay or Amazon always has a used A2 Terminator for sale around $1k.  Best thing right now.



A2's are hard to beat.  I think there was a batch of a newer miner that was split between 2 companies, but I cannot for life of me remember the names.

I also feel sorry for those stuck.  Hope it goes well but afraid at this point hashra seems very scammy to not deliver any of their new gear and open back up sales.

Noticed this did not get any help.  I personally have not had this miner.  My best advice is to find someone who has it and get a image of the SD card.   Are you able to get a image from who sold it to you?

It depends on where you are, but the easiest way in the U.S. is:

What country are you located at? This will be one of biggest things to find proper site.

  USA - I mostly use Paypal, but the fees is really getting up there,even though is convenient buying stuff on ebay and etc.

  Thanks Guys  for all the informative  approaches......

Look into coinbase.  Most will not sell BTC to paypal due to paypal charge backs.

Is that your bed next to an SP20 & a S5? Do you sleep with industrial ear muffs strapped to your head?  Grin

That is dedication.  Definitely could keep a eye on it that way though.   I personally keep them out of bedrooms Smiley
12346  Bitcoin / Mining support / Re: Miner Error on: February 04, 2015, 11:09:55 PM
I have now 3 error miners

Can you go into more details?  What pool are you using?  Are you able to take a screenshot of S4 configuration page for it?

Did the person who sold them to you have any problems?

Using a "mixer" you risk this.  Out of curiosity what made you pick that one?  I personally have not heard of it. But I admit I do not use mixers so I could be out of touch to good/bad sites to use.
12349  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: Will it be profitable using sp35? Need some help on: February 04, 2015, 11:02:55 PM
One items of note. The original post suggested that you are concerned about a timeframe of 1-2 years, I have yet a single example of a miner that has remained profitable to run for one year, much less two. Maybe that will all change in 2015, but I would be reluctant to think about more than 6-9 months for your SP35. This isn't a reflection on the specific hardware choice, just the nature of mining in general.


I would agree 2 years in mining is night/day.  USB miners good two years ago are basically used only for learning now.

12351  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: Are my calculations accurate? on: February 04, 2015, 09:20:13 AM
With a name like "Uranus", it has to be a joke. But seriously, never preorder from an unknown/untrusted source.
Yeah, I'm thinking the same but I read they have delivered machines before. But yes, if I buy, it will be a miner that is confirmed beeing delivered.

The thing is they released and shipped the Appolo.  I still have not seen a Zeus shown by them.   Also the Scrypt miner they released I believe they had part of a batch (I cannot remember who got the other half). 

But anyways do not order there.  They have just shipped old tech out, all the newer better speced stuff I still have not seen on here.
12352  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: ANTMINER C1 Discussion and Support Thread on: February 04, 2015, 07:20:12 AM
Bought everything as a kit. I called the Colorado support facility and the guy said all he can do is have me ship my entire system over to them and they will find out what is wrong with it and fix, no matter what it is. So I lose a couple weeks mining, big deal, and have to pay to ship that and my cooling system to Colorado. Hey, at least their willing to help. What's BitmainWarranty going to do? They would have probably told me to do the same thing. Only thing that bothers me is having to pay shipping for an in warranty product. I'll remember that next time when wave of new hardware comes a along. Other companies provide you shipping labels.

WHAT IS OUR RADIATOR MADE OUT OF? THE ONE THAT CAME WITH THE KIT? ALUMINUM OR COPPER?

[BitmainWarranty is the Denver, Colorado centre, calling in is just a quicker way to contact them]. I think it is the best solution to return it now, as whatever stuff is growing in that loop will be all up inside those blocks as well. I'm here to see if we can help people remotely without having to ship stuff across a country / continent as then everyone loses out.

They usually do provide labels but I guess its a bit of a confusing situation for them - let me know after its all completed if you're still out of pocket and I'll try and get it sorted.


My guess is copper.  They have always been very careful to say to use coolant not water.  That and it looks a copper "PD360" on their site we got: http://www.syscooling.com/products/Radiators/54.html .   The two aluminum radiator's they show selling are much smaller then the one with kit.

I could be wrong if they used a specialty one for miners, but I'm highly guessing its their standard.

Yes, you have to assume its copper or there are copper components. In several points in the listings (all changed by now) there has been a mention of copper on both the radiator and the fittings [internal coating]. You can see within the chamber of the radiator that there is definitely some form of dark orange coating, which may be brass or copper. So tldr, be safe and assume there is copper and aluminium within the same loop.

Just so we know and question can be answered completely are you able to confirm with syscooling that it is their copper version that is used for the kit? Thank you in advance.
The radiator SC-BC1 watercooling kits uses is aluminum.PD360 radator is copper,only PD series radiator is copper.

Can you link to the radiator's selling page on your site that was sent with batch one please?  With the 3 fan setup I just do not see a option on your site besides the PD (copper) option.
12353  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: Are my calculations accurate? on: February 04, 2015, 07:17:23 AM
You calculations are largely correct, even for a fictional miner. While you might get a return that matches the cost of your hardware, it won't be a lot of money. The real miners (e.g. Spondoolies, Bitmain, Aavalon), aren't really in better shape for a return on your money. They do exist though, and you will almost certainly receive something real for your money, and in a timeframe that makes sense (i.e. not months).

I also think xstr8guy is being too generous. Even for a well respected companies, pre-orders carry some significant risk of massive delay, or non-completiong or delivery.

Lol, I was thinking of editing my post to "never preorder (period!) or order from an untrusted/unknown source."

Although, batch ordering from known/trusted sources such as BitMain or Spondoolies is quite safe considering their track records.

Either one is safe.  I myself am a miner and I enjoy it.  With BTC so low buying direct is very nice.  I still will continue to mine.  But after winter is over I will have to get rid of some gear, I cannot justify getting heating exhaust from some of my older gear.

Your electricity is not bad.  If you are able to host with noise and heat for around that you are better off then most on electricity.

please this my account no spam i have backup but how Extracted from it private keys.
thank you

You backup the private keys (or login from email) if blockchain wallets are still the same.

You need access to private key to back it up.  You will not "extract" it from other info.

most of guys with lots of computers are sysadmins in big companies Smiley

Most sysadmins would not risk their job for use of computers. 
12357  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: hashra.com asic scrypt.... scam? on: February 03, 2015, 03:17:54 AM

So LifeForcePools' online store indicates:

"Please note – all Batch 1 and Batch 2 orders will begin shipping on or about 2/2/15 – All new orders (Batch 3 order will begin shipment on or about 2/16/15)"

I'm anxious to hear who gets a tracking # this week!


I hope you are right for those with orders.  Seems unlikely with still only showing renderings.
12358  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Bitcoin Core Shutting Computer Down on: February 03, 2015, 03:11:26 AM
It shouldnt take that much space on your hard drive... can you provide your specs on your computer?

i have a mac thats like 4 years old, running 3 ghz and some lame atx graphics card, 4gb, i3 processor.

Depends on type.  Let's say like a solid state usage is a lot more then typical optical drives.

It would have more to do with storage disk then other specs on recent laptops (last few years).

Thank you for doing poll.  Interesting results seems to be a pattern.  With polls on here then there showing same seems to have extra proof.

Hi, For some reason just after bitcoin core has done its checking on the first app page it completely shuts down my laptop.

This is after leaving on all night to download the database
Cheers, James

Are you sure it has the full database?  One night seems pretty quick if you downloaded the whole thing.
