J'avais fait un virement avec succès il y a 3 mois, merci pour cette mise en garde...

I find it a bit amusing for people to say "THANK YOU" here.

Of course, I appreciate the efforts, really, it's better than nothing. But I believe that what happens here, in real world standards (vs BTC world), is just due diligence, and I'm looking forward to hearing about the remaining 94% of the debt.

I will say thank you when 100% will be paid back, and that will be politeness. I don't say "thank you" to my bank for not getting my money stolen, you see what I mean?

As for sympathy, the whole "we can't tell you anything" is just too heavy for me

Cheers

Let me translate CK's thought: you need an ASIC miner for Bitcoin mining with the current version of cgminer.

If you want to GPU mine scrypt coins, you'll need an older version up to 3.7.x and to turn a few pages back and read this thread

Interesting logos, the current one looks a bit nuclear don't you guys think?

Congratulations for your nomination at SourceForge

I wish I were an observer here but I got several BTCs held in hostage here  

So, you said there would be a first repayment today, at an undisclosed ratio AFAIK, why is this? And how do we get that first repayment? It is past 9pm here, and already "tomorrow" in Australia... sigh. Oh, that's Cyprus, right.

Please, don't make it look worse than it should!

You should probably read about the Huygens–Fresnel principle, it also applies to lenses, as far as I know.

Oh, and there's an off-topic section too

It's still insolvent and BF is the same as WeEx as far as I'm concerned. Not even inserting a raw notice on the website about the situation is not reinsuring to say the least, although desperately usual in Bitcoin landscape. Sigh.

Let's wait until Monday and see how we move forward...

Please don't feed the troll, just pull the I trigger

And I still believe you don't get the problem. It's not about the pool owner being able to "control", i.e. own your coins, i.e. detain the private key of the new address they're at. It's about being able to use them -- or any other of your coins for that matter, as long as he knows their addresses -- as inputs for new transactions that MUST be accepted by at least ONE miner to get into the block chain.

If 90% of miners are rejecting your transactions maliciously (i.e. disobeying protocol by excluding them, but still producing technically acceptable blocks by all nodes following that protocol), and ALL blocks produced by the other 10% are rejected by the 90% (again, maliciously, disobeying protocol, but technically he can), then your coins are effectively embargoed: you still own them, but you can't use them.

So your coins are effectively worthless at least until the situation changes, because until then, none of your transactions will ever get a single confirmation on the whole network (or they'll be orphaned eventually)

Nearly 1000 LTC mined since early this year and more than happy with the pool, congratulations!

Did you ever think about re-opening automated signup by referral only? I got a few friends of mine addicted and hate to say them to use other pools. One or two invites for power members at least? Like torrent sites

Cheers

Wouldn't a scam pool set fees to 0% or very low, but not 3%, to attract more people into its scam?

It doesn't really make sense to me. But there are so many things that don't make sense in BTC world... *sigh*

I can confirm this, to make it simple: your transactions are still relayed on the network, true, but if 90% of the miners (through their pool) are excluding your transactions from their mined blocks, AND they reject, as part of the conspiracy, every block mined from foreign nodes (that would confirm your tx's), then...

tl;dr: yes your coins can be embargoed completely quite "easily" by someone with 90%.

Go for a win-win: team-up with him and double (triple, quadruple, n-uple...) spend at will

It still requires clever engineering to actually profit from double spend attacks, even with 90% hashrate under control, you can't force every node on the network (thinking of the exchanges) to think and accept whatever you would like them to.

+1

More signal, less noise, thanks

True, especially for a coin whose motto says "super secure"

The >51% situation is the same for many alts (think of "rare" MM coins like DVC or IXC and BitParking, they also have >90%).

Of course it's suboptimal, but it doesn't make the coin worthless. It merely means that miners have decided to trust a single entity to pool their efforts. Nothing more, and, granted, nothing less: trusting a central entity is not the aim of crypto coins IMO, at least not the original Bitcoin.

Miners could, theoretically, at any time, move away from CoinMine.pl and solo mine and/or switch pools, if they no longer trust them, or if they are no longer pleased by their policy.

How long have you been running them on average before the fuses got burnt?

If you have a multimeter, did you try to measure the amperage drawn from the 12V lines by the Blade?

Obviously you board is drawing too much current, so you must find the sucker. V2 Blades don't have voltage tuning unlike V1s, so I would rule out too high voltage. If you have connected fans to the white 2-pin power connectors, or anything else, they would be my first suspects.

Otherwise, if you are running the Blade vertically and/or there is nothing under the board that could create any ghost current, I would check the PSU voltage, for some reason it might be above 12V (would be weird, never seen that). If the PSU is okay, I would blame faulty components on the power lanes (inductors, capacitors, etc) or maybe even faulty chips. It that's the cause indeed, I'm afraid you'll have to go for a RMA.
