A run of 10 blocks, 70% of the network. You better hope they don't keep doing that ... Is there a reason other than the 50% attack theory? |

I'm considering buying a 2nd hand Coincraft Desk:
- Are they built well enough to last several years without issue?
- Any noise measurement? Am I correct to assume that it will be much more silent that an Antminer S5 with default settings?
Thank you in advance for any comment/recommendation.
EDIT: just realized the model I'm looking at is V1; are there big differences between V1 and V2?
I doubt most miners will last several years, especially built on A1 chips. I don't have noise measurements but they're much quieter than an S5 or S4, similar to an S2. I never saw an original V1 so I don't know what the differences are. |

Hi all, im buying heat sink 8.8mm x 8.8mm x 5.0mm, but i dont know where to place on my S5, anyone can guide me the correct path? it's A or B on the photo below. Or other place.
Thanks.
I have a link give me a minute. well i found it!! Yep that's it, the 8 pin chip slightly offset from the centre screw line. |

(heck I'd stall too at these prices especially if I had investors)
Is that even possible if you've already put in chip orders? You'd be saving in chip -> miner costs but likely lose overall. |

In defense of that proposal - keep in mind that HashFast liquidated assets (or still are, no idea). Their boards (well, their chips with maybe updated boards) ended up being used in e.g. Pepper Mining's Habanero (you can poke at MrTeal on that ) and Bitcrane's T-110 and T-720. From bankruptcy documents, they certainly claimed to have plenty of assets left over to build miners; don't recall if "1000's" applies, though  Not the first time its happened, won't be the last. When you put down such a huge chunk of money upfront in huge batches of chips, its not surprising that some companies simply don't have the money to turn them into miners once they arrive. Even ASICMiner did that on BE200, all the miners we saw sold over a 12 month period were from the same batch! |

Press release email: Arlington, VA – (Marketwired – April 28, 2015) – Bitcoin Shop, Inc. (OTCQB: BTCS) (“BTCS” or the “Company”), a blockchain technology company that engages in transaction verification services, announced today that it has signed a Letter of Intent (“LOI”) to merge with Spondoolies-Tech Ltd (“Spondoolies”), a digital currency server manufacturer. BTCS is embarking on a mission to build a fully integrated transaction verification services business using Spondoolies' state-of-the-art bitcoin mining technology. In the bitcoin network, transactions are typically verified by operators of specially designed servers which ensure speed, efficiency, security and accuracy. Currently, there are only five companies globally manufacturing these servers and Spondoolies is widely recognized as a leader in the space. Both companies believe the anticipated combination of BTCS and Spondoolies will create the world’s first publicly traded company to produce Bitcoin transaction verification equipment and deploy Bitcoin mining resources. The merger is subject to a number of conditions, including satisfactory completion of diligence and execution of definitive agreements. There can be no assurance that the conditions to closing will be satisfied or merger will be completed. “Our key goal in 2014 was to create the partnerships needed to build an ecosystem and start laying the foundation to put our vision into place,” said Charles Allen, CEO of BTCS. “Once completed, our merger with Spondoolies would be a significant leap forward in making this ecosystem a reality. We believe this merger once completed would create significant value for BTCS and Spondoolies shareholders, customers, and employees and serve to accelerate the strategic plans in which both companies have invested. As a collective, our next objective will be to complete the development and production of a next generation chip to drive our transaction verification services business and to generate revenue from the combination.” “Over the last several months, we've worked closely with Charles Allen and the BTCS team to establish the nature of our potential partnership,” said Guy Corem, CEO of Spondoolies. “The synergy between the teams is amazing. I have the utmost of confidence that together we will build a very successful and prosperous company by growing and expanding our business beyond bitcoin mining equipment.” About BTCS: BTCS is a blockchain technology company that provides transaction verification services for digital currency. BTCS is building a universal digital currency platform with the goal of enabling users to engage in the digital currency ecosystem through one point of access.

Check this forum, its got some of the most prolific home and small business community miners around, and how many enthusiasts got an Apollo? None, zilch, nada.
There were a few independent reports on the original batch of Apollos which was a looooooong time ago. Their second batch (the one I reviewed) was much later. I will bet there is not a big data center of Zeus macines.... this is a silly thing to say. Zeus was never sent to dogie, I believe they said they were going to do a blade or something and just never happened (please correct me if I'm wrong Dogie).
I never received anything, no. |

I thought the duplicate share was an issue with the pool not miner..?
Not really sure, but it happens on every pool I've tried. It's very frustrating. You can entirely ignore duplicate shares, they mean nothing what so ever. Even -Ck (cgminer's coder) says to ignore them. |

The x's on the ASIC chain status row #1 turned up almost instantly when I clocked back to 200.
I just now clocked back from 225 to 200 and set voltage at 0705. Seems to be doing great now! Thank You.
That thing was really cranked up at 225 and 0725. High fan CFM and high temps (49-50). I feel much better now. It sounds better and not so loud and hot. Hashing at 1.9 TH/s in lieu of 2.2 - 2.5. All o's.
Thank you, sir!!
No problem. Remember that when you do a voltage change that the unit really needs a hard power off otherwise it won't always set right and the chips might not reinitialise properly. Good luck. |

I don't get the randomness of ranks, how one person can have to have been around for a year longer than another to get the same rank.

Next update will be extended delays while they wait for the 14nm Lktek chips to be ready.
To be clear I'm talking about the SHA256 miners not the scrypt miners which shouldn't even be a topic of discussion in this part of the forum.
Maybe so [regarding chips]. I don't think its a problem to discuss scrypt miners in here for companies that sell both types, otherwise we'd dilute the discussion and people needlessly. Same for SFards, their one chip does both so should we split the discussion? |

Service discussion maybe?

How does a permalink help?
It could work in the way linking to a specific post reply works. If the reply is deleted the link just directs to the post the reply was responding to. A link doesn't add any additional proof itself, but would be easier for administrators to verify that x trust rating did exist at one time, if they chose to get involved. I understand that the trust system was a bolt on for SMF forums but there is room for additional features. |

Do these guys pay block found (PPLNS) or any other way?
BitFury is a hardware manufacturer, not a pool. |

1) What PSU are they using?
2) To me it looks like the second and last 2 LEDs are on, not the first one. Its hard to see. The second one is a "I'm not mining" LED.
3) How are you connecting to the WRT? Ie:
WRT -> Powered USB hub -> -> USB adapter -> chained units.
If you don't have a powered USB hub in there it will probably fail.

Can't beat a bit of old school paint for avatar re-sizing.
Or GIMP. Its like photoshop but open source (and free). |

Where are you seeing liquid caps? Why are you looking for "liquid" caps? I misread what he originally asked, nevermind. |
