Also this hub intakes 12 volts  from a brick.  I am pretty sure  that a gpu rig could mine these sticks along with gpu coins and you could tap the  atx psu for the 12 volts of power.

I think this could work for 3 bricks not 5

https://www.amazon.com/60cm-Express-5-5X2-5mm-Plugs-Gridseed/dp/B00MTI68IE/ref=sr_1_10?

I think 3 hubs doing 5 sticks each with the adapter above  could do an easy freq of 200 with fans.

I will do testing of this down the road.

18363  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: US Tariff Ruling N297495 = 2.6% mandatory tariff on bitcoin mining hardware on: November 17, 2018, 04:17:14 AM
Lot of mixed info here.

August 23rd or some date like that is the 25 % tariff.

But any miner from China going back to the first one sold in 2011 the Avalon I think.

 is subject to the 2.6% tax

So for me I could get 2.6 % on maybe 10000. For a  260 usd bill.

And I could get 25% on an 1800 miner ordered near the tariff date in august this would be 450

So I think I could be charged as high as 700 or 800.

Basically every miner ever purchased from China from 2011 to 2017 is subject to the 2.6% number.

While the 25% number starts in August 23rd maybe August 28th.

So for me I will not be buying any gear for right now. As I sometimes got charged 3% from 2011 to 2017

And some times got charged zip.

I will need to wait to see if I get billed.
18364  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: GMO miner B2: 7NM mining within reach? on: November 17, 2018, 03:34:45 AM
That really shouldn't have mattered. That's the golden ticket for pre-order companies, the time between when you pay and they deliver. It's a get out of jail free card, all you have to do is deliver the equipment, even if it's sub par for what is being sold along side it when the time to ship comes due.

There is no economical benefit to not shipping out the miners and refunding customers if the gear was successful. Considering the pre-order was supposedly sold out, they would have been way ahead by delivering this product to market, then moving forward.

this is why preorders are death.

so they sold out   say 1000 machines for 3000. or 3 million.

how does anyone know if :

they mined them for 4 months.
they only cost 1 million to make them
they earned 1 million profit which means they are all roi'd

and they refund the 3 million back,

their cost = 0
they have 1000 miners paid off.
they have a load leveler deal with a major japanese power company
they switch gear on and off to level the load  and split the coins with the power company

If that is true I could prove it if  Japan gave me full authority to investigate it. But that is less likely then my 2 sidekick new pacs hitting back to back blocks. Grin

So try bumping up the voltage a little? Clock wise, quarter of a turn?

¼ is a lot.   think  of it as a clock and try 1/12 of a turn clockwise.

If I recall  a full turn is too much  which is why I always would try 1/12 of a turn when bumping them up.

I can't say I've heard of any issues in particular with this. More than likely you may wear out your switch before anything else.

I would suggest doing a soft stop. Do this by stopping the mining first and bringing the machine to an idle then shut it down. The power draw wi be reduced which is easier on equipment.

Honestly though if it's still profitable during the day I would run 24/7.
Soft stop would be much more preferred and this is my first time on hearing out different electricity rate in the morning and evening? Huh

the only soft way to power off is 2 separate psu's

one does the hashboards the other does the controller.

it is a bad method since the psu running the controller can fail the board will stay hot and the fans would be turned off.

some areas have cheaper night power.

at op just do it. hit a switch at 7am shut them off.  hit a switch at 12midnight turn them on.

I gather you will be 7 hours on 17 off.

so how cheap is that 7 hour on rate vs the 17 hour off rate.?

2 useful applications for cryptocurrencies monitoring and trading!

Mammon
You can find out the percentage of cryptocurrency rise or fall, price refresh rate according to your settings: daily or each hour.
Mammon allows to calculate the total sum of your earnings per each cryptocurrency or all of them together. This platform differs from the others, as here you can set a target price for cryptocurrencies you want and get the notification if any of them reaches the threshold.
You can download Mammon at the official site.



Delta
If your chosen cryptocurrency exchange does not have a mobile trading application (like Bittrex or Poloniex), Ztrader allows Windows and Mac users to connect via the API and execute transactions.
Delta is a great application for serious cryptocurrency trading. It creates a pie chart of a cryptocurrency portfolio and provides the calculation of such parameters as realized and unrealized profits, as well as reports on tax returns. You pay taxes, right? Of course yes. To use all the features of Delta you need a subscription. The service is provided by a great app for Windows and Mac.
You can download Delta at the official site.

mine are rock solid at 250mhz

using the 10  port  bipolar usb hub.  which says it can do 10 watts a port.

I think it can do 8 watts and 8 sticks but  with only 2 sticks and one on order   I most likely won't push it that hard.

my opinions

these are nice sticks so nice I grabbed a third one and it is on its way
I will set it to the sipolar hub.

the power brick  gives 12 volts at 10 amps.

so 12 x 10 = 120 watts  convert to 5volts since ports are 5 volts

90percent to 95 percent  so   120 x .9 = 108 watts   x .8 for safety  = 86.4 watts  round down to 80 /10 =

8 watts for 10 ports in theory

so here is sidehack's chart

@100MHz was 2.65W, with AsicBoost measured 2.35W.      (default)
@200MHz was 4.66W, with AsicBoost measured 4.20W.      (fan cooled)
@400MHz was 9.63W, with AsicBoost measured 8.38W.      (out of support zone)
@600MHz was 13.62W, with AsicBoost measured 12.45W.  (damage if fan gets tired zone)

looks like 300mhz could work with all 10 ports and good fans

Well Diff adjustments going the good way is a nice offset with the current price. If this keeps up it would be interesting to see what the next retarget period brings us.

yep  a -6 now then a - of any number next jump  will be very interesting.

Well I'm not a day trader and like a sure thing. Best to those risking BTC for a shitfork.

I will say one thing  we will have a large drop.

It is 13 days and 22 hours since last jump.  and we have 152 blocks to go.

Bitcoin Difficulty:   7,184,404,942,701
Estimated Next Difficulty:   6,807,493,130,902 (-5.25%)

Block Generation Time(?):   
1 block: 11.0 minutes
3 blocks: 32.9 minutes
6 blocks: 1.1 hours
Updated:   14:25 (2.9 minutes ago)

we could do a -5 to -8  here.

Nov 16 2018     6,800,000,000,000     -6.00        48,000,000,000 GH/s  looks like this could be correct
