12601  Bitcoin / Mining support / Re: Power wires coming off of PSU due to vibration on: December 25, 2014, 10:49:57 AM
Almost done with the room.  My electrician now says I will be able to get 112 machines in there safely.  I'm excited and ready to grow.

We are going to use a terminal board for the power and are already using special spade terminals on the wires now.  I"ll get a picture tomorrow or friday. 

Sounds amazing.  Can I ask around what it costed to have the electrical put in?

Sp31 run 32 days , 26 Hours offline yesterday , then run again , no answer whats the Problem from minersource , but after they need 13 days !! to get it mining for me!(sp31)
I'm not really supriseded.
Hashing with 4,83


I would contact minersource.  It is not the SP team hosting it.   I'm not sure on minersource but it is Christmas so they might be on skeleton crew.
12603  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: Dec 17 to Dec 29th diff thread (-0.32%) to (-0.12%) on: December 25, 2014, 05:53:16 AM
It's looking like a possible positive difficulty change:

Bitcoin Difficulty:    39,457,671,307
Estimated Next Difficulty:    39,092,892,001 (-0.92%)
Adjust time:    After 870 Blocks, About 6.0 days

In 6 days if we could see a little positive.   Even if we do it's been a good month as a miner.

I do agree with phil on machines.  I am lucky with a decent amount of cheap electricity.  I plan on going through winter with 1 dragon.   After that (maybe before) I will retire it and try to sell it to one of those with "free" electricity.

Rest of my gear will easily make it through winter, then I will see what I decide to mine during summer and what gets sold.
12604  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: ANTMINER C1 Discussion and Support Thread on: December 25, 2014, 04:47:02 AM
Perfect. Everything is running pretty well now. I probably will pick up the molex to 3-PIN connector and ditch the harness all together. This is my first water-cooling experience.. I have wanted to do a PC for years decided to try it out on a C1 first.

I have had my molex to 3 pin for weeks now and it is a great way to power it.   Amazon has them, frozen cpu also has them.
12605  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Mining Paycoin on: December 25, 2014, 04:13:36 AM

Paycoin is going to be one of the biggest cryptocurencies ever-even better than bitcoin.


Can anyone sum up Paycoin's innovations?  I've yet to see any; tho, i am often the last to know, and awful daft.

Biggest thing in my opinion is being set up to use with a "debit" like card.   A currency that is set a little bit more stable on coin value (We wont really know this till the 29th when we see if it is really holding a 20 dollar value).

I still think bitcoin will remain number one.  But paycoin does have some good ideas which shows with how big the launch went.

We paid about $ 250 for the hospital and we have no more money. We need to pay $200 to the hospital and we need $100 to pay for the vaccines.

If you have no money you have no business adopting a dog.  They cost money.  Shame on you.   Angry

I wanted to believe but I had trouble the more I thought about it.   Sadly this time of year is full of scammers.   

What are the chances that someone rescues a dog and then finds out about bitcoin within a few days... slim.  And for the person to only need money no instructions on how to use btc or cash it in.
12607  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: Free electricity... Should I buy a miner? (Antminer S1?) on: December 25, 2014, 01:34:31 AM

Check your contract for a "fair use" clause first.

I'm wondering if he is a student a some student housing has a locked in rate.  It's been a bit but I know last time I had a student apartment they had a clause most they could charge you was 25 a month over standard housing bill. 

I personally would look at a little newer and powerful (S3 or better).  But with "free" electricity you have lots of options.
12608  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: Antminer S6 speculation on: December 24, 2014, 07:06:37 PM
Rack mount would be nice.. And it would have been really cool if the blades would have been able to fit in the s4

The S4 still has quite a bit of life left in it being profitable for most places,  I doubt we see a  upgrade on S4.
12609  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: www.lketc.com 1TH Dragon miner direct order. 3000$ on: December 24, 2014, 06:06:35 PM
Hi!

Is there way to undervolt/underclock lketc 1TH miner for best energy consumption W/GH ?


You could adjust the frequency.   I have not seen much effort going into it.   Soon if not already Dragons should be a decent deal for those with "free electricity".   

They are great machines but just use quite a bit of electricity.   The 1T 4 blade is set to a very freq for default.

I don't see any freq settings in web miner configs.  And I dont have access to ssh.

How can I adjust the frequency?

Use a old image to gain SSH.  They don't share the credentials on new images.

12611  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: Is the S5 string design safe and was it really tested properly? on: December 24, 2014, 01:18:20 PM
My main concern with the S5 is why does it cost so much?

The C1 is $325 and has FOUR hashing boards. The C1 boards also have a DC/DC converter for every two chips IIRC. The buck controller ICs probably cost more per unit than their custom silicon.

There is a major BOM cost reduction going to the chained design. The controller looks the same (cost reduced beaglebone black), the new chips of course have an NRE that needs to be recouped so they're probably just milking the first batch of people who are gonna buy it just because it's new.

Not even considering the possibility of instability or catastrophic failure due to the chain design, I'm gonna sit on my hands for a while. I'm willing to bet the first few price drops will be pretty good.

Who said they aren't losing $100s on the C1 at that price? You don't know.

I think them doing a batch 2 proves it.   But I don't have the info you do so I could be wrong.  I think they would have stopped after batch one, or stopped it completely like L1's.  

For what it is worth I think we will see SP and Bitmain continue to battle it out.

Batches are artificiality created as a marketing tactic.
For all we know the first batch might be few tens of S5 to test the product on live customers.

They were out of stock of C1's for a bit that makes me think they did run out to stop selling.  But again I could be wrong I have no proof either way.
12612  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: [ANN] Spondoolies-Tech - carrier grade, data center ready mining rigs on: December 24, 2014, 04:32:48 AM
My engineer put the SP20 through a tough quality test.  In the end he seemed happy.

12613  Bitcoin / Mining support / Re: Easiet S3 Auto Reset Method on: December 24, 2014, 04:05:13 AM
bummer. I need s3 reset I dont know how to use this guys with spondoolies unit :/ HuhHuhHuh

It was made for bitmain.   If you know all the options you might be able to use, but I have not tried.

Why are you needing to use it for SP gear? I have been using SP20 and they have not needed the restarts I do with my antmienrs
12614  Economy / Service Discussion / Re: Coinbase problems - anyone else? on: December 24, 2014, 12:57:25 AM
Try to login on another PC, maybe your PC or device too dirty and check again your connection, IP, ect.
I ever have trouble like that but in different website, when everyone haven't trouble with login, but i have. And i try to use another PC, clean my PC and use another connection, i haven't trouble after that.
But if you have 2FA, maybe you must backup your 2FA first.

ikydesu, as I said I cleared cookies, caches etc. many times but it still doesn't work + I tried to login on 4 different devices (Android, iOS, Windows, Ubuntu) and still get the same error.

Have  you tried from another physical location not tied to the same IP address?

If it's across all devices, maybe it's ISP related.

It must be account related. I also tried it with another ISP (mobile network) and it still doesn't work and as I said I can access with another account but not with my main account...curious.

Yes.  Looks like it's related to your primary account on Coinbase, not a Coinbase systemic issue.

Try emailing support https://support.coinbase.com/customer/portal/emails/new from your secondary account and provide all the details.  They usually respond within the same day.

Thank you for the site, but I've already wrote them and think I'm not going to get a reply before Christmas...I assume long delays now when I have to access my funds. Not cool.

With it being US I have a feeling you are right it will be a skeleton crew during the 24th and 25th.  Hopefully they get to you soon but if like a lot of companies could be Monday till most are back.

12616  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Is there a way to earn 50$ in a month from faucets ? on: December 23, 2014, 10:48:32 PM
I don't think so. Signature campaign is better than faucet and other things.

That is correct. Try to level up on the forum to get better payments on the campaigns. Also you could hit once in a while the faucets , I do it like 1 -2 times a day, but just freebitcoin and freedogecoin, recently in freebitcoin I got 0.005 BTC, a struck of luck.

Signature campaigns are better by far.  And can be fun if you find one you enjoy.

There are threads like this that make me wish i could lock threads.  This thread is three pages to say no over and over... Smiley

I myself love dogs so I give  you some help.  This forum is not the best to ask for money.

I would suggest going over to reddit and see if  you can get a mod to verify story. (Not sure how they will but I'm sure they will find something).

Hope that helps some and hope little pirate has many more holidays to come.
12618  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Question About Address on: December 23, 2014, 09:31:02 PM
you can  generate addy with any required sign (even word) at beginning.

But more special signs you want the more you will pay for that.

Check more details about vanity address

If you have any GPU's around they speed up vanity address a whole lot.  There is a good site that sells them but I would rather make it myself personally.
12619  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: ANTMINER C1 Discussion and Support Thread on: December 23, 2014, 05:31:43 PM
interested want buy c1, i want ask.. if im buy c1 ready for use..im mean no need buy watecooling kit ?

Batch 2 C1 includes a watercooling kit so you don't have to buy it separately, but you must install it to run C1.

I guess the real question is, do they really need a watercooling kit or is it not truly necessary? To me this just adds more expense to a unit adding more time before it pays itself off.

Yes they need a watercooling kit.  You could build it yourself.  But you will always need watercooling with C1.
