This is a good idea if it is  so using the lessor 4000 rpm fans would fix a cold room issue. The chips would run warmer and voltage would be dropped.

Well this corona-v meltdown  of worldwide economy  is the first big meltdown since bitcoin hit the scene in 2009 .


last  super crash was 2008.

It has bitch slapped most everything but gold.


Dow closed at 23,800
BTC is at  7870

My bad  if you could do what I said it would work , but you can't.

I think you can do this below:

You could  get weaker fans.

if you have 6000 rpm fans  that move  220 cfm

you could swap to  4000-  4800 rpm fans that move 180 cfm

Delta makes some

14667  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Number 9! Ninth altcoin thread. Back to the moon Baby! on: March 09, 2020, 04:16:36 PM
Anyone catch the ETH dev call today? If so can you summarize the conclusion because I still don't understand whether ProgPOW is a go or not. Seems that people were for and against it and now I don't know where we stand.

Either way. Apparently the Antminer E3 accounts for around 40% of the total ETH hashrate. There was a nonce fingerprinting done similar to what was done with XMR old algo and it turns out that 40% is from the certain ASIC. It was released by BitsbeTrippin and you can find it on their twitter. So in about a month or so around 40% of the hashrate is going to disappear.
 

This is why I never trusted ETH  most likely they won't go to ProgPOW they really don't care about miners much.

At least we will get a boost when the asics die off.  I do think those machines could be tweaked to have more ram.

I wonder if someone (Bitmain) has a lot of higher memory machines in hand mining in the background.

They reach out to ETH dev and poof no algo switch.

This would mean that 40% hashrate drop will be 30%  as bitmain had 1 in 4 machine on the network and they have jack up memory.

Which is why they made sure to build the units with ddr2 not ddr3 ram. The 3 of 4 units out in the wild won't find much ddr2 to upgrade with.

From the disassembly videos that I saw posted on Youtube, the ram seems to be soldered into the hash board. This is the video I am looking at,
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ew6mL5BjpdI

Also I made a mistake earlier, according to the video the RAM chips are actually DDR3 and not DDR2. Looks like they just bought the actual memory chips and not the actual memory module that most computer use. So I don't think its possible to add more memory. It would take forever to desolder every single ram chip and replace with a higher capacity. Also it would need to be reprogramed, most likely won't be plug and play.

you could swap the chips and update the SPD to change the ram amounts..... that is if the memory controller can handle the larger amount. >)

Yes its possible to swap the chips but have you ever done some surface mount desolering and soldering? I did it a few times when fixing an iPhone and it was a pain in the ass. You need to apply the right amount of heat, if you apply too little heat you risk ripping out a solder joint on the PCB, you apply too much heat you can damage neighbouring parts.

Also look at the amount of memory chips on the ASIC, it would take probably days to get it done. And after you swap the chips you have no gaurantee that it will be plug and play. You might have to play with the memory controller and then with the firmware. I don't think anyone will be swapping the chips.

Other then the ones built for bitmain by bitmain  which likely do exist  and would have been built with 2x the ram.

So if there are 30,000 doa machines   bitmain may have 10,000 that will work and are working right now..

Proof of this will be if the switch to progpow never happens.

... By the way, I still remember our discussion and how you overlooked the importance of China, there you have it now, everything is collapsing because when China coughs the world MUST listen and cough along.

Not sure of this conversation.  China 🇨🇳 is certainly a driving economic force in the Modern World.

Is this in reference to Trumps import tax war trying to beat China 🇨🇳.

BTW wall street  crashed so hard today they shut it down🥵

-7 % shut it down. and it was opened again moving to -5%.

..IMO, nobody should really care if they were selected every month or "won the lotto" every month, but it's still kinda interesting to keep track of it since it went monthly. Smiley
Of course, this list isn't to be taken seriously. But in between all the serious drama, I don't mind some less-serious Trust related things. And I'm curious to see who's going to be the last man standing on DT1. Although it's random, it still looks like some sort of record.

Yeah I did that too  mostly due to the op running a THREAD saying I was the worst offender  of trading postive feedback.
For all of bitcointalk.  Which truly annoyed me so I removed 200 positives trust and shrank my list down to next to nothing.
Are you sure that was me? I kinda recall it being someone else, I had Dabs as biggest Trust Selfscratcher.

To avoid getting annoyed By statistical threads.  I suspect Loyce deciding to come up with this one without thinking it would annoy me.
Usually, I'm not creating threads with the purpose of annoying someone. There have been some exceptions (hi CH), but not much. On the other hand, I'm also not going to stop myself from posting something because it might annoy someone. This applies here too:
Just recently, I saw several posts saying: "I hope I'm not offending anyone", and it's been on my mind for a while now.

I only recently realized why this is so common in English. In Dutch, "offended" and "insulted" are the same word ("beledigd"). But lately, it seems like people treat the word "offending" as if it's "insulting".
I'd say insulting isn't needed and makes you look bad, but being offended is a choice of the receiver, and honestly I'm offended by people who want to limit their own freedom of speech out of fear that someone might get his feelings hurt on the internet! Oh noes!

It's okay to offended people! Offensive jokes are often funny. Don't let SJW decide what you're allowed to say or even think!

Trying to be nice doesn't hurt you, but don't let someone's made up feelings stop you from speaking your mind.

But it did anger me a bit due to theymos list  saying I never missed an update  and loyce counting the first list which was  not an updated list against me.
You're taking this way too seriously Tongue There are millions of users who never lost a DT1-lottery, because they were never in it. The main reason to include 14 rounds instead of 13 rounds is that I happen to have data for 14 rounds. It's just me being lazy Tongue

Quote
I should not be so petty, but sometimes I am.  My apologies  please forget I posted here at all.
I'm glad though this got solved already while I was still sleeping Smiley

Statistics are statistics, hopefully members here aren't naive enough to think a statistic automatically determines someone an offender to some sort of community standard or not.
Exactly Smiley It's just data, open for interpretation.

No worries .  I am under stress due to a family illness. I got annoyed far too easily over this.

Some days I can be a grumpy old man.
14670  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: Advice on Raspberry pi hardware for running full BTC node on: March 09, 2020, 02:44:57 PM
Success! Finally got MyNode running on Raspberry Pi 4.
Took about 28 hours to download it and finish the sync to the pi and powered only with the official RPi cable.
I'll be trying to upgrade it manually next and then, figure out how to access it from another network.

28 hours is impressive.
It took one full month to reindex and vaidate  the blockchain (downloading was pretty fast actually) on my Rpi3.


28 hours is good.

I did 6 with a 2000 dollar pc.

seems like it is competive at last.

so this was a rasp pi 4. correct?

what is it loaded to a ssd or a hdd or a sd card?

14671  Bitcoin / Mining support / Re: Antminer S15 with latest firmware consumes 1900W in lower temp env of 24C on: March 09, 2020, 01:55:12 PM
Unfortunately, when it autotunes, it runs the fans on max, which is when it identifies the pcb temp, and jacks up the voltage.  The only solution I have found with the s15 is to feed warmer air in during autotune (mixed room air and T15 miner exhaust).  Then when set fans take over it keeps the pbc warm enough to avoid that 300w issue, because it checks pcb temps every 30 minutes or so and at any point, if the boards get too cold, it jacks up the voltage.

A custom firmware that sets voltage and freq to static would likely overcome this issue...

My question is why are temps below 25C a problem?

 They are not  problem but the firmware was set to pick that number as the trigger point.

If you went into the firmware and alter the 25c tigger point to 18c it would solve the problem.

Really bad numbers.


About 6 or 7 blocks till the next jump.

Corona-V  has hit the world's economy hard.  Dow Jones  Market is set to drop 1000 point today.

It is a mess.



Bitmain sold s9's as high as 3000 in Dec 2017

S9's sold as high as 4k  on this website.

I did an escrow for them at 3500 a machine.

I may be able to 60 of them if I drive from NJ to Tennesse Next week.  Cost would be really cheap.

Statistics are statistics, hopefully members here aren't naive enough to think a statistic automatically determines someone an offender to some sort of community standard or not. It can certainly be a helpful guide for highlighting those that should be researched or looked into, but it's not necessarily a silver bullet to finding abusive members.

No worries thanks for helping me calm myself down . No reason for me to have been upset about it at all.
14679  Other / Meta / Re: Complete overview of users on DT1 and DT2 and their ratings on: March 09, 2020, 12:36:46 AM
Initially it was done more frequently... the DT1 list has technically been dynamic since it was changed... the first selection would have been here, but no list was posted (to my knowledge?).
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5095156.msg49140832#msg49140832

A list was actually posted later here by theymos when he re-calculated it:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5095156.msg49143128#msg49143128

EDIT: another re-construction would have been done here:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5095156.msg49230484#msg49230484

And it ultimately went monthly after this post, then continued with "DT Update log" thread.

..IMO, nobody should really care if they were selected every month or "won the lotto" every month, but it's still kinda interesting to keep track of it since it went monthly. Smiley  I intentionally removed my trust list to fall out of the criteria for a few months, too much drama for me (and I was protesting it Tongue), but I ended up re-establishing a list later on.

I would have to think he would always be on dt1and that I would drop to dt2 more easily then he would.
If more than 100 users are eligible, theymos makes a not provably fair random selection.

was march 5 2019 first lottery?

if so i won every lottery.
The first month after the DT-changes, you weren't eligible for DT1 because you didn't have enough users on your own Trust list. I hava data of all users on DT1 for the last 14 "rounds. You're only in the last 13, so you're not on the "last man standing" list:
Those users have never lost the "DT1 lottery":
     13 Jet Cash
     13 Lafu
     13 Lesbian Cow
     13 LoyceV
     13 Mitchell
     13 coinlocket$
     13 mprep
     13 o_e_l_e_o
     13 owlcatz
     13 qwk
     13 sapta
     13 philipma1957
  this would be correct

And now there are only 11 left ..

I count 13 lotteries not 14

based on the thread by theymos    I won all 13 lotteries

unless there was a 14th lottery.

yes I was not on the starting list but as that thread shows that is pre lottery.

this is not to say I am correct and you are wrong.


but first post mentions me as a updated winner.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5117330.msg53512864#msg53512864


counting pre lottery  to get 14 is not accurate.

as thread shows 13 new lists

you are count a pre lottery list the original old list as 1

which we both agree I am not on.

but I am on every lottery list with a win.

Not that I mind  but were there prior lotteries?  did the original list come about due to a 14th lottery.

If not  you should not count it as the 14th lottery/update.

now I do agree to the fact that I do not know how the first post old list came about.  if they were picked via a lottery I would be wrong.

If they were based on old rules and not a lottery then my way would be correct.

I will be the first to admit I have no evidence that  the first list was lottery created or old rule created.


This list is the first list   but if it was never the result of a lotto it does not matter and should not be counted.
