I was originally solo mining against my wallet with them, I going to point the U3's at http://solo.ckpool.org/ next, I've just been messing around with them. I have about 7TH of hashing that I point at pools. 7TH, that's a nice little setup. I'm surprised the U3 was something that interested you with that much hash already. I have to ask, what drew you to the U3? The U3 was the first ASIC miner I bought, somehow it didn't turn me off to mining despite all its problems. |

Please consider "rounding up". If you buy two or three or 100, please consider paying for one extra and not taking delivery, especially via PayPal.
That covers the higher PayPal fees, incidentals , et cetera, and helps support, frankly, the finest online community member I've ever seen. Anywhere. Ever.
Great idea, I do the same thing on PP whenever I deal with a friend or a business I support regularly. I appreciate them giving us the option of PayPal, and to that extent try to make it impact their business as little as possible. I've added 5% to credit card transactions in the past as well, to cover the 3% fees charged to retailers by card issuers. |

I don't think noise will change. They have been pretty consistent for last few generations on it is not quiet. Yes S5 was very loud, but S4 was not quiet either.
I think noise is here to stay best advice is to get a place to put them that it will not bug you.
It's a function of how much heat needs to be removed from the box. The machine generates X amount of heat, thereby requiring Y amount of airflow to remove said heat. Once that cfm requirement reaches a certain threshold there no way to keep it quiet without going crazy and fabbing up a water cooling system or something. |

You can also leave it as dynamic dns and set the renewal time to something really long, then your computer will basically have a static local ip. Regardless, unless you have hundreds of devices on your local network when your local ip lease is up it usually renews with the same address.
So as has been mentioned, make sure the appropriate ports are open in your firewall and that those ports are forwarded to the local ip of the machine running core and you'll start seeing >8 connections immediately.

Oh, you're pool mining with a U3? Are you actually making money, will the U3 roi for you?

All Bitcoin XT topics should be removed from the Bitcoin subforum and moved here to altcoins. XT is not bitcoin, it's an altcoin fork, and it should be treated as such.

I completely uninstalled 0.11.0 and reinstalled it on a different partition. Currently re-downloading the blockchain... again... hopefully the new location will clear up these errors.

I was out of town for a week so no posts, I don't know if it matters since the campaign is monthly, but wanted to let the campaign know anyway. For security reasons I do not post online beforehand that I'm going out of town.

I then downloaded CGMiner 4.9.0 and have all three devices hashing... only issue is that the devices go ZOMBIE for no rhyme or reason.
Did you try cgminer 4.9.2? It had several updates, including a few that were U3 specific I believe. |

Oh wow, now things are going to get super exciting. I mean, watching the stick develop was really cool, but I cannot wait to see what these boards are going to be capable of.  |

So far I have had to rebuild the blockchain twice since "updating" to 0.11.0. Both times I received a "cannot read database" error, and upon restart I was prompted to re-syn the chain. Dunno if this is a hardware error on my side or not, but I did not have these issues on the 0.10.x releases.
Edit - Now core won't even startup after this last db error. It gets to activating best chain then crashes with no error... I really want to run a full node, but it's becoming too much of a hassle.

omg - Why is the hall so big? i mean, u guys wanne build up in the air in the future  Or u just get cheap an old bunker from the nazis  Otherwise very nice. Longs quit impressive ! Good Work  they didnt design it this way, the building is an old fruit storage warehouse for a juice company(treetop). it was engineered for an entirely different purpose, and they thought they could use it for another, as you can see it didnt work out well. the local grapevine says the whole thing was not designed by datacenter engineers, which is probably why it failed with our 110+ degree days, that people not from here apparently were not expecting. Yup, without the head space to capture all the hot air those building must get smoking hot! |

looks to me more like a altcoin, or an sabotage of the bitcoin or an take over....
That's all it is, an altcoin with a name very similar to Bitcoin. It will never become the main coin if China ignores it, which all indications seem to be that's what is going to happen. It's funny that it's forked with larger blocks, but if not many people are going to use it then the larger blocks aren't necessary. |

Update: about 8 hours and still hashing with the red wire cut.  So going to let it run. Keeping fingers crossed that it keeps on without a reset from cgminer or zombie out. Seen to many posts that say try this it works, only for them to come back a day or 2 later to say it zombies out again. Well I've tried every other suggestion in messing around with mine, I might just have to try the "no USB power mod" and see what my results are. Seems like doing the same thing to different U3s can yield different results. |

It looks like the site is simply using Google Translate to translate the text, so brand names like “HaoBTC” are automatically translated to “Good Bitcoin”. Brand names should not be translated.
The very first thing I noticed is the button to log in is labeled LOG, not LOG IN.  |

It's bad news for residents of New York, that state is going to become a bitcoin vacuum because of it. My twitter feed has news every day of another bitcoin business leaving the state, and it's really picked up since the Aug. 8 deadline. Short sighted politicians with no understanding of crypto currency gotta ruin everything.

For the last month or so, the speculation has been that Bitmain was replacing used S5's with "as yet unreleased" S7 miners. It could be that it was actually S5+ miners rather than S7's. While the S5+ has it's advantages, it's really a repackaging of the S5 technology, and nothing like the previous increases (e.g. S5 over S3).
If the actual replacement has been s5+ miners, then that suggests to me that the S7 will be even later than many had expected/hoped. Right now it's hard to see what will motivate Bitmain to actually release an S7, assuming it has actually got the ASIC work and other engineering completed. It's possible folks have been assuming Bitmain is further along than they actually are.
Just my $.02.
yeah more then possible more like it is true. In fact they may not release the s-7 until nov this year. The S5+ surprised me on releasing. It is a way to get rid of ALOT of old chips. So makes me wonder if they have a stockpile of chips, or just can produce them cheap at this point. I think it will be a bit till next chip. I think it will be based more off when it makes the most financial sense for them, not when we need it. Also other companies could push it to be launched to. It for sure would not make sense for Bitmain to release a new chip until all their new batches of S5 and S5+ have ROI'd for them in their farm, which is difficult to put a time table to when we don't know for sure how long they've been running S5+'s. Even then they probably wouldn't release a new chip until they've pawned off sold many of their used miners to the mass-market. Personally I look forward to the new hardware coming out because that means the current S5 used market should see an influx of hardware and the price should drop to a point where I can justify buying a few. |

That's where mine will be pointed, just as soon as I can find the pennies in my couch to buy a couple.  |

Payment received, thank you. I have been part of this campaign since I was a newbie with 8 posts, I am now dropping out of the campaign in an attempt to join one that pays monthly flat-rate. If I am denied I will come back to 777Coin I've been accepted into the new campaign, thanks for your support.
