Modded 8 units with the single bridge trick today. All runniung stable @ 950mhz and nearly zero HW errors after a couple hours. Pool (ghash.io) reports exactly the same 400khash as cgminer.
Tried 1000mhz on one of them and although CGminer said zero HW errors and 425khash, ghash.io reported 30(!!)khash over a 1hr average. Pretty clear that 1000mhz does not work. At least not the way i'm doing it.
Looking forward to getting ahold of that modified fork of cgminer so I can have a little more granular control over freq setting and trying 950mhz and 983mhz.
So what have you used to solder the bridges? wi did not see many pictures of actual mods around here  I had to go buy all new soldering gear. The stuff i've soldered before was larger wires. So: New fine-tip iron, some wire, some solder, a station, a headmounted magnifier, flux, etc. The first one I used a small peice of 30awg wire but found that it is easier to put just a tiny tiny drop of solder on the tip of the iron and bring that down to the contact points to make the bridge. The contacts are way to small to apply normal "wound" solder to. Hopefully all that makes sense. Yes makes all sense, I've soldered before but nothing this tiny. I have an soldering iron as well but not with such thin tip. I do have a brand new magnifier with the little "hands" to hold the hardware brand new in the box, I guess it's time to get it out and get a new soldering iron with thin tip |

Hmm I have no com & lpt tab in the device manager.
but maybe this only appears when I'll hook up a gridseed to the laptop? ( I'm getting them soon )

any word on craptsy?? i mean cryptsy!
I wanted to register on cryptsy just to profit of their auto sell but something must be going on as I get this message : "Registration currently paused - Please try again in a few moments" |

so has anyone gotten past the glitchy cgminer issue where you have to unplug the miners, start cgminer, plug the miners back in and hope it finds them?
I also noticed that when I had my 20 miners controlled by cgminer my pools hash rate was in the 4800khs area while cgminer reported over 7000khs. Now that they are all running in their own instance of cpuminer I average well over 6500khs and sometimes close to 7500khs at my pool.
Does bfgminer work with these things yet?
vabchgent that answered my post above is using bfg and recommended bfg to me so I assume it does http://cryptomining-blog.com/1396-download-bfgminer-3-10-0-for-windows-scrypt-mining-on-gridseed-5-chip-asics You can get down to 800 MHz if you are getting more HW errors, or try to get up to 900 MHz if you get no HW errors to see if you can get 380 KHS stable. Can I got to 950? Or is 900 the limit? Thanks! 950 yes, with the bridge mod |

I can't believe people are crying over this. You will all be mining this because you want to make money, don't pretend your doing it to stop people losing money it's just pathetic.
This coin is going to be massive, have 2000 + miners and you can't do shit with your red text.
Keep trolling it's fun, your attracting more miners to the coin.
Long live greececoin
Crypto King, can you explain me why you support this coin so much? the devs are not even Greek, and they can't write or understand Greek( I am offended as a Greek by this). And yet they clone the litecoin source, they are probable newbies to cryptocurrency programming, claiming to distribute over 50% of the coins to greece, when they don't even know how the Greek ID looks like, or the length of the ID number(I contacted them). The only one who will win from this is the greedy devs by keeping over a million of coins in their wallets.. Would you like to explain me your reasons of supporting this? Another person who is offended, haha. Why do you get offended, maybe people like you is why greece is failing, you need to lighten up and let go, just go with the flow. Greececoin will be great, at least give it a chance, no one on here can really say what the future will hold but what i do know is i will be mining as many greececoins as possible and be making as much as i can. I can guarantee you will be doing the same 100%, other wise you will see Greececoin climbing in price and kicking yourself saying why didnt i mine greececoin, i was there from the beginning and could have made so much. But no you have already made this mistake before by not mining coins so this is why you will be mining! Greececoin will be worth more than Spaincoin, and im pretty sure we could see Greececoin over take Auroracoin with its current price. Miners will not miss this opportunity, trust me! Any person serious about making $$ doesn't really care if the coin is going to be a long term succes or not. All people with rigs want to pay of their investment no matter what it takes. If the coin is a succes after all, well congrats, if not you made $$ so us as miners still win.. Anyhow only future can tell where this goes, but alot of money will be made by certain people, I just wish I had your 50.000ks/h  |

So what if my Username as has a digit on the end and not a letter?
ur entry number is 12 if I'm correct I not understand this excatly, where can i find my Entry# ? Ah, and my little piggy went hashing again @10GH/s look one or two pages back, they have a little chart that explains it what is "5ick3uffalo" then ? 16? "5" = "S" = "1" ? well my username is jamieb81 so I cannot use the numbers, so I guess you need to start after the digit. ( but I cannot tell you with 100% guarantee ) PB will be around and probably confirm it to us |

And this little piggy went hashing!#12 25GH/s free would double my piggie mining!

ur entry number is 12 if I'm correct if indeed the digits of the username do not count it would be 12 indeed, waiting on confirmation on this. |

So if you can solder the risks are very minimal considering you can unsolder the bridge if you need to. I am running my test seed at the moment with BFGMiner, There should be no problems doing this mod with that right?
So I'm getting one of these babies in pretty soon, what's the best miner soft to use. I've seen on crypto blog that with BFG you don't need to replace any driver just plug in and mine, can you confirm that? so many here seem to prefer cpuminer but being able to use cgwatcher seems appealing! I have used cpuminer-cgminer-BFGminer. I have been using Bfgminer for a week with no problems. It is plug and play. The only problem I had with it is it found one extra one thats not there. But will be tonight. if it finds a extra just disable it problem solved. Thanks for that, so windows just finds the adequate drivers? or install the drivers that come with the Gridseed first? |

I think you have to set up your own pool, or set up your own LTC node, then connect to that. Or use a stratum proxy thingie.
But LTC is too big to attempt solo mining with only 20 gridseeds. Maybe if you had 200, but not even. You're better of joining P2Pool or solo mining a smaller alt-coin.
thanks but I like to try new things Solo mine the hell out of a new coin and dump :p |

Would be awsome to see such value happening but I have a hard time to believe it ever will go that high or hit the top it has been before. will it still exist in 5 years even? I'm not a future teller hehe. If I at least make my money back, I'll be more than glad not to have lost any  if I make some $$ awsome it's a bit like sports betting |

Just bought two orders for a total of 100GH, excited to see where this goes. Some rough estimates on Bitcoin calculators suggest pretty nice returns over 60 months. If everything goes smoothly across the next week I think I'll make a couple more orders!
Greg
wich calculator did you use? as we do not know exactly the difficulty raises in the future etc.. |

Is there anywhere somekind of guide to set up some basic strategies for simple trading bot?
I would like that as well, but for the Beginner licence  |
