Interesting, but I swear that I've seen documents pulled from the gov's website showing the charges and what not. Not ice.gov, but the courts themselves.

Always in for a good conspiracy theory, if it's true or not.

It seems to me that ATT as a whole has completely halted ALL unlocking this past week. Apparently new company policy states that NOBODY may unlock iPhones anymore. Thousands of unlocking orders, including the premium immediate unlock ones, have suddenly all been canceled and refunded! I just bought a $45 one with someone else and they had to refund my money saying "it's not working and we're figuring out why".

It's a pretty big deal.

It's too bad, really. Sad

Bye-Bye iPhone unlocking! Stupid ATT and their terrible overpriced service...

This doesn't effect ATT completely, just the iphones. Not sure if it has to do with new phones being released right now or what, but I'll update if things change back. If you want to unlock an ATT iphone right now, it's pretty damned hard to do at the moment.
204  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Miner's fee a barrier to mass adoption on: October 21, 2013, 04:46:51 PM
The current fee of 0.0001 is about less than 2 US cents.

Merchants don't need to insist on a fee. But merchants will insist on a confirmation.

Emphasis mine. Why did everyone skip over the answer? Merchants could give a rats ass about the fee, a big fee, little fee, whatever. They just need to know that the network accepted the transaction, be it 6 or even just 1 confirmation. How many sites do you see that accept 0 confirmations and let you get something out of them with the chance of your OP scenario?

True, with 50BTC going to what looks like a vanity address: 1PexpessseHF8qkzDrGuuWZSLzm2887Qwa
Any clue?

From the pex address, it's already moved again. Interesting.

And 36k bitcoin = 6 million?

Instead of them rushing out crap because you've got a couple of whining asses... it would be nicer if they could fix the problems and address QA and shipping issues. I know some of you are in this to make your money back this week, but for some of us, we would prefer our ASIC to last more than past the next difficulty change.

This reminds me of the pick two saying: price, quality, speed (time to receive product)

I don't think BFL every picked any, but I think KNC has great price, I'd just rather have quality than them tossing a bunch of half working shit in a box because avenger is crying.

Bump. Looking to use this guy's service but I'm not sure he's online anymore. Sad

I am here. Gone over the weekend for a little vacation. I messaged you back.

The service is temporarily unavailable. All suppliers for unlocks have had some bad stuff happen, and there is no longer affordable access to the service currently. Other carrier unlocks are available, but nothing for ATT iphones currently ($50+ is current rate)

Your hashrate stays the same? You're difficulty is probably adjusting up then. If you look at your miner, does the share difficulty increase from when you start to after the 48 hours or whatever? If the hashrate is the same, it's just increasing the difficulty for you so you are not wasting bandwidth and server load reporting shares too quickly.
Now I'm sitting at 99k shares submitted. I even took an hour break from BTCG but that didn't help. My shares just keep going down. I'm not sure if that is related to network difficulty but somehow think it's likely not related.

Network difficulty does not effect the number of shares you submit. Look at your PPLNS shares page, when hashing, do you have a consistent number of shares per block? I'm not quite understanding the number of shares are decreasing and how you are determining that.
209  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: [540 TH] BTC Guild - Pays TxFees, Stratum, MergedMining, Private Servers on: October 16, 2013, 04:31:47 PM
Another huge jump? Didn't we just had a jump that nearly destroyed entire universe?

40% spike a few hours ago. We get a jump in the last few months just under every two weeks like the target should be. Today, you will mine 40% less BTC than you did as recent as yesterday.

My day2 went to shipped yesterday and I picked it up from the office today. There are loads of people coming and picking stuff up. One guy came with his van and picked 6 Jupiter's up in one go.

Got to meet Orama and Sam and some of the other guys. They were rushing around like worker bees but still took the time to chat for a few minutes.

I don't comment much just watch the fireworks in here but it is funny heading how people have an inflated opinion of their impact on what it's going on. I can see there are a few frustrated customers, but they have shipped near 1500 miners so there are a hell of a lot of happy customers that no one is hearing from.

And a few probably non customers who are playing out the keyboard warriror syndrome to perfection. Smiley

"Peace"

Hold on Honey! Someone on the internet is wrong!!

Posting reason? Just because you have your pussy hurt because KNC didn't get yours delivered the DAY they promised to (not a year later like BFL) you are just trying to bully your way to the front of the list.

Surprise, there are others that paid for their order before yours that deserve them first. Stop shilling for other ASIC companies and get ready for your device you gigantic cry baby.

Interesting how you see my posts if you supposedly have me on ignore...

Wow... he has to delete posts in his other thread if he doesn't agree with them, even if they make sense.

Guess I'll post reasoning in this one where he can't delete it.

Not to excuse KnC, but imagine trying to calculate the BTC "lost" due to Avalon's late shipping, or :ahem: BFL's...
The funny part about this is that a lot of people ended up making MORE BTC by BFL's late shipping.  If BFL had shipped on time and at the quantities stated last October, difficulty would have spiked faster than it has lately and you'd have had a year of little to no earnings compared to what you did get.  I calculated that an FPGA Single mining from Oct 1 to the date the first actual single shipped and then that single mining until today would have made about 12% more BTC compared to a rough guess at BFL's orderbook and a 60Gh single delivered Oct 1 would have made to date.

Most people with BFL orders would have preferred not to have made any money a year ago, rather than wait a year to discover that unfortunate truth.

What that BFL is a scam?

Well, sort of. BFL, along with every other ASIC manufacturer has sold a volume of equipment that cannot recoup costs given the fixed block reward amount at any realistic BTC exchange rate. I would have preferred to have known that last year, rather than this year, as a BFL customer.

BFL was late a year, and KNC is getting crap by missing their deadline, so far by a day for part of their orders. Amazing. How did Avalon do for batch 2, 3?

I sure would prefer KNC make sure things don't catch on fire and push back delivery a little. I'm not too hot on the idea of having to swap replacement parts with them in Sweden.

Makes sense, I suppose that is what's happening. But that also affects my reward too.

I have 4 blades and few block erupters on single instance of BFGMiner. Would it help reduce difficulty if I gave them their own username and manage from separate instance of BFGMiner?

If your hashrate is staying the same, your reward shouldn't go down.

If you break them out to their own miner, they could have their own difficulty, but you would just be submitting shares quickly again, defeating the purpose. Your rewards should average out very nicely over 24 hours. Don't look at block by block or hour by hour, look at your earnings over longer periods of time.

Question for eleuthria or any other member.

I've switched back and have been mining for about 48 hours on BTCG and notice something odd in my shares submitted.

When I started, I was submitting around 112k shares but my shares gradually go down no matter what. My shares are consistently around 100k to 102k - that's down 12k shares on every shift.

I have noticed this before too, so if I stop mining on BTCG for a day or two and come back, my shares are good and then gradually progress downwards. My hash rate is fine, actually BTCG shows my hash with more accuracy than any other pool.

Any ideas?

Your hashrate stays the same? You're difficulty is probably adjusting up then. If you look at your miner, does the share difficulty increase from when you start to after the 48 hours or whatever?

If he were only pissed at the delay, and not spreading other FUD, then yeah, seems reasonable, huh?

As we enter what looks like another Bitcoin rally, please remember that pools are not banks, and in the event of large simultaneous withdrawals, your coins may not be immediately available due to a depletion of the hot wallet storage.  BTC Guild, along with any major bitcoin service which keeps balances for users to withdraw on demand, uses a hot/cold storage system to minimize the amount of funds at risk in the event of server compromise/server failure.

Make sure you set your auto payouts or run manual payouts regularly.  It not only makes sure you have complete control over the majority of your coins, it makes sure that others will still be able to receive their payouts on demand without any delay to move funds from cold wallets to hot wallets.

eleuthria is bull on price. BUY BUY BUY!

With your spin on things avenger, you wonder who you are the shill for. Or if you just hate being wrong so much you have to spin it so you don't look like an idiot.

What do you care? At all?

This KNC thing is a done deal already. Whatever he does (which is his own business).

Calm down.

Just letting those that stumble upon his thread know not to take his word without going through the extra effort of actually reading. What do I care? I care that he is lying when there are others that deserve much more hate than the chips that catch fire company.

Timer removed. End time: 2013-10-15+18:00:00CEST

It's apparent that KNC have vastly over-promised. I could almost accept that, if they'd admitted it in the last week and offered some new schedule for delivery.

But now it's 6pm in Sweden, close of business on 15th October and they have said nothing. Total blackout. Totally ignorance.

I guesstimate about half the orders have shipped by today. If that is correct, that leaves, say, 800 units, conservatively 700 jupiters at $8000 = $5.6 million worth of customers they are telling to go suck a d!@k.

Disgusting company, disgusting lack of communications, disgusting contempt shown for customers.

It's time for me anyway, to contact my credit card company.

Total blackout? Tons of people got shipping info yesterday...

Did you not make the cut off because you paid late? You should have contacted your credit card company weeks ago if you aren't in it to be a miner. If you just want BTC buy them and stop being such a cry baby. Miner's life is hard. Suck it up or get out. Sure as hell beat any three letter acronym that starts with a b and ends with an l. Even if they catch on fire.

You have some incorrect math on here, and I have some other questions.

Quote
Bonus Eligibility

You must maintain a minimum outstanding investment of 1BTC in Ice Dice
Your daily wager must be greater than or equal to 0.1BTC
If a player do not meet the bonus elibility, then his bonus will be skipped and paid to the person next level up.

Your commission will be calculated and automatically paid to your balance daily.

Compensation Example
You invite 3 players, the 3 players each invite 3 players, then they each invite 3 players... You will receive commission for all 10 levels of players below you. In this example, because each player invite 3 players, over 10 levels will mean you will receive referral bonus from 59049 players! Each player will needs to bet 0.1BTC a day to be eligible for their referral bonus, so assume everyone wagered only their minimum, you will receive 59049 x 0.1BTC x 1% / 10 levels = 5.9049BTC a day. You can always increase your earnings by refering more than 3 players.


1 BTC, must be invested in the bank roll, or on the account?
So, to get referral money, we both have to invest and we have to play every day.

In the example of 3 players through 10 levels, there are 59,049 players on the tenth level, not total, the total is 88,572 making the earnings 8.8572BTC a day. In addition, if any of the players do not bet their minimum, so on the initial tier, those earnings roll up, potentially to you, right?
