How do you justify the 25% mark up in asking price between the MS69 vs. the MS68? The difference in those grades is unlikely to be perceptible by the naked eye!
What's your rationale?
Thanks.
The higher the grade, the harder to find. MS-70s don't come around often so they have a higher premium than ms-69s (Only known sale of an MS-70 tenth was by blazed). Same applies to ms-69s vs 68s Hard to see to the naked eye, but ANACs grades it and we take it as is. IF we don't like the grade we resend and hope for a higher grade.

Glad to see the sexy miner photos again ^_^ So are you guys going to use a cooler like this, and keep it low profile like the pods? Or was it just a cooler available in the shop? Hope you guys also have a Merry Christmas and keep producing cool mining gear

Just found this, can't believe Ive gone this long without seeing this thread lmao. I'll be pointing my old s1 at this pool as soon as I reach the payout min at my current pool lol (with an s1 who knows how long that might be)
*Crunches some numbers* Within the next two halving if difficulty stays the same. (4,000 days) But Merry Christmas to the miners, Hopefully many people get some jolly good presents from Jolly 'ole Nakamoto

If you need antivirus disabled for a bot to work, I do not think you should ever download something that fishy.

+10.7 = Mikestang
I wonder how long we will go with the new .1 guess system before someone wins?
Phil, did you come up with a roll-over scenario? I think we need to cap the prize at some point (my suggestion was 1 roll over, 0.2btc max reward, then reset it) or the prize becomes too much for a "fun" game and starts attracting less savory types...
I think Phil is going to let this one roll one more time to a max of .516 After that max will be .3 Is everything ok Philip. Beginning to wonder if ya had to much nog. Can you please explain to the community why your on here with a secondary account going back and forth with yourself. I bit my tongue long enough. It makes me cringe every time judypug posts. Please don't take my word for it go look thru Judy posts and be judge yourself what's going on here. I tried to be sly about communicating what I knew to Philip but it's apparent he didn't pick up on it Best regards Doug Could be a fanboy, or something like that. I feel like it would be a stretch because Phil has been good for the community, and actually has done things of goodwill, like split a block with some guy that mined to an address that didn't work with solo mining. Also wanted to update here: Bitcoin Difficulty: 93,448,670,796 Estimated Next Difficulty: 103,997,411,108 (+11.29%) Adjust time: After 1093 Blocks, About 7.2 days Hashrate(?): 682,265,602 GH/s Block Generation Time(?): 1 block: 9.5 minutes 3 blocks: 28.4 minutes 6 blocks: 56.8 minutes Potential for going under 11%? That'd be pretty cool.

I have some prospective customers for the error Kialara, but nobody wants to make an offer. Everyone wants to hear a price. What does the community think?
Its faulty so only worth 0.1 BTC . Just ask something stupid high and see how they respond. I would roll the dice and auction it. How much is "stupid" high for a one of a kind? Well I have never seen them command a premium of very much. Maybe retail price times 3? If you're auctioning, put like a 7 day auction and start at like 0.25 BTC = ~ the retail price of $100 Just see where it goes from there. That sounds like a good idea . Over Xmas and New Year might be a bad time to hold an auction though as people are out and about. True. I was also considering the market has been flooded with Kialaras recently. So might want to hold out till the second of Jan. Since everyone will be recovering from those hangovers on the first

greetings, have short viewed the topic but found nothing about my actual question. i want to know if is possible to use external asic instead of cpu for vanitygen. surely anyone here can help me out, thanks.
If you don't have a GPU that generates addresses at a good rate, you can ask shorena to generate addresses for you. Using this method mentioned in the OP. I have a lot of compute power, and want to make vanity addresses for others. How do I do it?The difficulty with this is convincing your customer that, once you provide them with a vanity address, you do not have a copy of their private key. Some methods of doing this have been discussed on the forum, and vanitygen currently supports one of them. To generate an address securely, your customer generates a private key, and provides you with the public key part. You use this public key as part of the address search, and when you find a match, you provide them with a partial private key. The customer then adds the partial private key to their private key to get the vanity address. Because the customer never disclosed their part of the private key, only they have access to the complete private key. There are many ways to get a key pair, but to do address-for-hire, you need the complete public key in hexadecimal format. The bitcoin address is not sufficient. One way to generate one and get this is to use the keyconv utility, keyconv -G, and get the following parts: $ ./keyconv -G Pubkey (hex): 041d2e778ae6d9124736df131cd22d3a2483f336c55156d87a84c4bdc6d89f8518e33de85ae0f907a7128c476281bc8cc7742b43a54ccc2c7824dc4c4a438a7fbc Privkey (hex): 61E00B1C57E7F0D508C7C3795F90C0ACEC1DCAF6A7B82C951D23F728FD53E4BE Address: 15wRE5VA5uhxs5o6LayZC6imES2SeZeXd4 Privkey: 5JZPftgcsaG5Unp24cf47zP7JZEZkfnSAZzefezAVNRomKHZE8f The customer saves the privkey part in a secure location, and provides you with the Pubkey (hex) part. Then, you run vanitygen or oclvanitygen, and specify the customer's public key: $ ./vanitygen -P 041d2e778ae6d9124736df131cd22d3a2483f336c55156d87a84c4bdc6d89f8518e33de85ae0f907a7128c476281bc8cc7742b43a54ccc2c7824dc4c4a438a7fbc 1Boat Difficulty: 4476342 Pattern: 1Boat Address: 1BoatWxEHyVXkjS78d16LMuj8YMdZ1Kce8 PrivkeyPart: 5KCwog8Ndt64ZicNSGoDBRf4vACBptM2GUtSJCmkbqpieC8idcP Because a public key was specified, vanitygen now provides a PrivkeyPart rather than a Privkey result, which is useful only to your customer. The customer then takes the partial private key produced by vanitygen and adds it to their private key. This can be done using ThePiachu's handy website, or using the keyconv utility: $ ./keyconv -c 5JZPftgcsaG5Unp24cf47zP7JZEZkfnSAZzefezAVNRomKHZE8f 5KCwog8Ndt64ZicNSGoDBRf4vACBptM2GUtSJCmkbqpieC8idcP Address: 1BoatWxEHyVXkjS78d16LMuj8YMdZ1Kce8 Privkey: 5J1Jieusaa6vegTQZ7PNG3hMcsM2FjgHPK1BkPjbYyQsWb9k5vj Here, keyconv is able to recreate the final address found by vanitygen, based on the two private key parts. It is also able to create the final private key. This is infeasible for someone who does not have both parts of the private key, and provides your customer with real security. This process is very complicated. A simpler way to do it is to use a bounty pool such as vanity pool.

If you are talking about the 1000 BTC gold coins, I believe the last sale was rumored to be a private sale of somewhere around a million dollars. The user Goat they call him did a private deal somewhere. Whether or not the information is true I wouldn't know Here was his sale thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=331372.0Looks like in the images there are a couple goldies.

this is a popular function used by many bitcoin payment gateway in which a customer placed orders and a wallet is generated for customer to send btc to and in return generated wallet transfers funds received to seller acc ( which in this case is my exchanger ).
now i will wait more 12 hours if funds not sent to exchanger, i will write blockchain.info this is the 3rd time i am experiencing this but not this long.
blockchain.info does not control the bitcoin network, it just allows to see transactions going on, gives some cool statistics, and offers wallet services. the blockchain is controlled by the network with everyone pitching in offering nodes for transactions to pass through.

It looks like some people referenced solar power and the long-term payoff.. There was another project a guy had done https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1077811.0He did it for $158 and runs 3 antminer u2's on it. ROI is almost never unless he gets lucky and gets a block. Just depends how much you believe in bitcoin for the long-term payoff. Personally you should just go climb an electric pole and hope you don't get shocked while hooking up a free line to your house, heh heh.

The power is included in the rent
Be careful with this statement. Meaning do research about your rent terms, if you have a maximum power cap per month. That's what would get you on something like this. Currently, I'm not paying anything as far as power costs (which is nice), but what would be a good starting rig? Would several USB ASIC's be better than a single large unit?
well anything will work then. they get very hot though as a new guy just buy the best $$/GH RATIO and u will do fine i think remember some use ALOT of power and need special attention to power outlets cables and the like Would this be profitable enough to add another unit every few months or so? I've seen a lot of people using various setups and saying that they get only a few cents a day worth of bitcoins. You should do $$ to GH, but if your rent has a max power cap I would say s3's would work alright for you. Avalons are another good alternative and can be made quieter than an s3. You will need to consider your heat, noise and power requirements tho. A good place to start looking is the hardware section for used miners: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=75.0

Thanks for the payouts zengry. Hope everyone has Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, Happy Hanukkah, any other religions I missed? Yeah, I remember that some Christians celebrate Christmas on Januray 6th, this should have a name, but I don't remember it. Orthodox Christmas, and it is celebrated January 7th Mostly happens in Eastern Europe. Russia, Ukraine I believe are the big countries that do it from what my parents have told me.

USB miners is like the dumbest decision you'll ever make... They profit you literally nothing, especially with the difficulty rising quickly.
So you buy a stick from sidehack or a reseller cost in the USA 30-40 dollars. Just 1 your point it at this pool https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1283990.0if we hit a block you get .24- .25 btc if you are running a pc 24/7 the extra power is 5 watts about 4 kwatts a month about 50 kwatts a year. at 12 cents a kwatt 6 dollars so for 1 year maybe 45 dollars and 2 years 51 dollars. the chances are we will hit a block if we play for 2 years. Exactly what Phil said. This was the website I used to setup my usb miners. http://computers.tutsplus.com/tutorials/how-to-create-a-raspberry-pi-bitcoin-miner--cms-20353The only thing you need is a USB hub that will deliver enough power per port, unless you have a hub that you are using half the ports. Something like this might give you enough power, but is pricey. amazon.com USB hub
