2021  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][EAGS]EagsCurrency - FULL POS [EXCHANGES] ~FREE DIST. PROMO ENDED! on: March 25, 2015, 03:44:27 AM
Hello, I try to mining here http://eagspool.net/.
How to withdraw from there? manual or auto??? Undecided
It is auto every 24 hours. Marcetin will give you more details. Thanks!
Pay with bitcoin or eagscurrency???
I believe it works as you mine bitcoin (if using sha256 asic), then it buys eags at current price and gives you equivilant of bitcoin in eags.
2022  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: small home mining, the future? on: March 24, 2015, 04:46:47 PM
try to imagine yourself in November of 2011 and apply the same logic, considering that price was low, halving was coming, miners were unprofitable, bitcoin was in the downtrend. How did that situation predicted the next 24 mo with bitcoin going from $2 to $1160? It didn't. I am not saying that we will have the same spurt, just that it is not really predictable.

Mining technology was growing at an exponential rate at the end of 2011 and that had a huge factor on btc value and network difficulty.  We do not have that same exponential technology growth this time around.  I think the halving is going to see a lot of large farms shut down.  Eventually, after another couple halvings, farm mining will be cost ineffective and home mining will hopefully be the top dog.  I think, in the long run, home mining dominating the network is "more healthy" for bitcoin than all these large multi-petahash farms.
We could also look at the mt gox "bot trading". That might have manipulated the bitcoin price..

lotto game?
Buyer-funded lotto game.

Edit: Will try again today to get escrow.

Nice streak again!

Out of curiosity, do you guys split your hashes over different pools?  I have about half on Slush and half on BTC Guild for now.  I did like the consistently of Antpool (in terms of blocks being found), but with all of the DDoS issues they have been having recently, I've been staying way.
If by splitting on one device? No.
I just set backup pools incase one or two have problems...

Any pictures or proof you are in possession of said miners?
Just wondering.

As far as mining now days do ROI and see if buying a machine or hosted miner makes most sense for you.
keeping your bitcoin makes more sense now.

The only way would be philips idea.

Other than that I believe it is pin 16 + either 17 or 18 for the PSU to be powered on, how you can get that past the motherboard is a different challenge.

I thought this post was an interesting thing.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=974172.0

And how the keys work

Basically, you could just argue that a distributed network of people together power Bitcoin.

Or use some facts that may not have been completely confirmed. Only because ASICs can't compare with normal CPU/GPU operations.

Also arguing with your wife/significant other never makes sense, because the couch isn't a nice place...
2040  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: Vanitygen: Vanity bitcoin address generator/miner [v0.22] on: March 23, 2015, 11:24:44 PM

You probably would be safer using the key mining pool.
https://vanitypool.appspot.com/

Or I could run my 780ti for a couple hours and it probably would generate pretty fast
EDIT: 50% is in 3 hours if interested.

I really appreciate the offer for this.  TBH, I have to work on quite a few other projects today and tomorrow but as soon as I get a chance to look into this more closely I'll more than likely contact you to take you up on this.  Again, many thanks.  It's not that I'm unappreciative, I've just gotta knock out some other priorities before looking more closely into vanity addresses Smiley

Cheers!

Edit: Another thing I just thought of is the fact that I have an old Antminer which hashes as about 3GH/sec, I have no idea if it's possible to use this to find a vanity address but I would think that it is in principle.  Maybe I should read more on how to point vanitygen to my miner (right now it's just running on an oldish amd64 at my work Smiley).

I don't believe Bitcoin addresses are based of sha-256 algorithms. ASIC miners are built with one purpose, to heat your place, and mine bitcoins. The only things that can utilize this are sha-256 alt currencies and anything running sha-256(sha-256)

Good point, that final comment was obviously some sort of wishful thinking on my part.  Thanks again for all the help here.  I'll be looking into this more carefully soon.  Cheers again!
No problem. There are many uses for your old antminer. Boil water, dry clothes, heat in the winter, maybe cook an egg on, a paperweight. The possibilities are endless!
