In case of any doubt about 21's intentions, they, and their investors couldn't care less about whether or not this development boards sells 1 or a million units, the end game is to generate enough public interest for an IPO which will probably be priced at about $25 + billion (at least to the sheep that will doubtlessly buy shares in it).

They can claim they have sold 100,000 boards to developers. Who will know? They'll get plenty of hangers-on to publicly declare their support for the project and the idea of micropayments for digital services.

Once they get their hands on a couple of billion.....you can imagine what they might do.


I can but i won't make it a list , will say KNC again maybe, lmao.or a honest type knc that sells to the public based in the US and the US needs more chip maker etc to drive down prices and set standard again like we use to a long time ago .That's not gonna happen either..

Does this 0.16w/Gh mean they have a real miner in the works, if this one cost 400 you can bet any thing that actually mines bitcoins and is for bitcoin mining they make is gonna cost, is this real ? .

Yeah, well Bitfury has announced their 0,06 J/GH 16nm technology, so that will get interesting also.
Then there comes 21 with their 0,16 J/GH chip

So it will be getting interesting in here  Grin
[/quote]


I saw that to but Bitfury wont sell to the public if they do it's gonna shot thu the roof price wise and 21 just what does that do be side offer a new way of accessing the blockchain does it actually mine at 1.15 th or better . if that's all it does i can build a PI for far less like some one said in a post or have a PI now that can do it. is that worth 400 bucks , no.  i see what you mean by 0,16 J/GH chip .I'll wait till Nov for that one.

I was going two buy 2 s7 at least but the price stopped me .it's more a disappoint meant to me then anything for the s7 price.

I noticed that s5 working with some of the ATX power supply after a period of 25-30 days is slowing down. Restart and return to the original ​​hashrate for next 25 days.
I did not notice such a big slowdown in the ATX gold 750W power supply but probably you use a smaller power supply , which are not designed to operate 24/7. This is all at a temperature lower than 20 degrees Celsius.

same here altho not much.. after about 10 to 15 days my s5 shows 1.12 or so..

seasonic x850 psu with all 4 pci-e connected.. not 2x2 cables.
.





That just happen on one my S5 i had to reboot it and it fine for while. i use a sea sonic 850 cables same 4x4 , i may hook up a server PSU, i just started buying to see if that was it .That S5 was on line for two days while my other S5's using Corsair 750  or 850 gold, run for days and days and sty the same, i  reboot them because it makes sense to .



I use this :

Does anyone know why Justin split ?
Does it  have anything to do with CoinMyne ?

I'd like to renew my subscription to CGRemote and the code doesn't work
and I don't want to send any $$$ not knowing if Justin is going to get it or not.

Pete...

a few month ago I asked him why he told me
UN foreseen things came up he may not be able to keep this going , wish i had kept that email now i would, link it , he told me i could but me being me .I felt it wasn't my right to do he should have.


he said he might give us all free full access, i see didn't happen, or make the code open Source so some one could pick it up , which didn't happen .


I won't renew it, even if the renewal  code worked.

what would happen if:  I would renew it, it would be my luck the next day, whoever is paying to host the service, the services  per pay time would run out or if it's being paid month to month they might stop paying and leave us in the cold .


plus   and my main reason why I won't pay to renew :

NO updates sense July of last year for remote and the last time, i think watcher, was updated was Sep of last year, i like this soft ware, over any we can use now, free or paid for but no updates and no one putting in and fixing any thing or any bugs, not worth  it, that was the whole point of paying  .

2187  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Cat5e versus Cat6 on: September 24, 2015, 06:10:14 AM
For mining cat5 or cat5e, your not sending/receiving that much data mining.  Cat5e can carry gigabit speeds on your network like cat6 can but all devices i.e. modem, routers/switches and computers need gigabit ports to complete the gigabit network speed.  If you have a non-gigabit switch in front of the other devices regardless of the cabling type or use cat5 you won't reach gigabit speeds.  Gigabit speeds are mainly for large downloads but we are now seeing upload speeds reaching a level that gigabit will help.  
Since they're cheap now always buy cat6 cables they're backward compatible, it will save you in the future from upgrading later.


one of my exact reason  i got Cat 6  all my switches are 10/100/1000 including the fios router my ISP speed is 150/150 sense there is no 1000 gib speed were i live yet  and only one or two things on my home network are below 1000 and those one or two things don't matter like the print server and vonage phone jack or vonage router.


 oyea my miners .
2188  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Design suggestions needed for new bitcoin miner. What NOT to do. What to avoid. on: September 24, 2015, 03:14:29 AM
if your going to sell to the home user which is still a very good market to get into .


noise , weight , small , make it only use what Electricity is actually needed while it runs.


beadle to under clock and over clock and volt the same way.


fully customize able  fans in the GUI

use any controller even if it has own built in one



and test test even after it is released all the common sense stuff it should do .


be upgarde able use those old parts that are usable.

What do I need to buy for my miners?  Cat5e or Cat6?  Thanks!


cat5/5e is fine for mining, i have 6 for my home network but for mining cat 5 is all you need . ,my home network is all  @1000 gib till it hits the net on fios but i have 6 just for my home use, it was cheap so i replaced my c5 to C6 .


Thanks everyone.  Do you think even if it is a 25 foot cable it doesn't make a difference? 


25 foot should be fine i think but not sure beyond a 100 feet or so it starts to break down some .
2190  Bitcoin / Group buys / Re: [Proposal] Mining Co-Op on: September 24, 2015, 01:44:50 AM
Most hosting companies give pretty big discounts for bulk buyers, and you can get small bulk discounts from most hardware manufacturers. Why don't we take advantage of that in a simple, transparent way?

Here's what I'm thinking:
  • Pool funds in a btc address controlled by a trustworthy person.
  • Negotiate a purchase of hardware.
  • Buy the hardware and pay the hoster up front for a lengthy contract (6 months to a year).
  • Have the hardware shipped directly from the manufacturer to our hoster.
  • Mine at eligius (transparent and public stats) and have the payout go directly to a btc address controlled by our trustworthy person.
  • Divide the payouts proportionately every week/month.
  • At the end of the term we can sell the hardware or renew the contract.

If we follow this plan step-by-step we only have to trust three people: The manufacturer, the hoster, and the trusted third party.
Feel free to discuss this below!

UPDATE: I've talked to a hoster that's given me a fee schedule as long as I keep their name a secret until we start the buy. I've dealt with them before, and you will know who they are before this kicks off, if this ever gets off the ground.
50KW @ $58/KW ($0.08/KWh)
100KW @ $55/KW ($0.076/KWh)

As for time frame, I'm thinking we wait and see for new miners to enter market from avalon/SP-TECH, so prices can come down to something reasonable.


The one we have to trust the most is the one handling the btc and payout. The hoster and manufacturers in most cases are very trustworthy if you go with ones we know care about what they do and not some new startup out of no were . same for a the hoster .
2191  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Cat5e versus Cat6 on: September 24, 2015, 12:57:16 AM
Cat5e is sufficient to run a gigabit network, you don't need Cat6. Besides, your internet connection is likely only 10M or so. Your speedy local network's bottleneck is still the internet connection.

I don't know if 10M is the normal  now.  I live in the middle of nowhere and have gigabit internet.

But as far as mining does not take anything special on bandwidth.  The shielding aspect was interesting someone put.  But really I don't think you will have a problem with either one your thinking about.

With my fios router they told me i can use C6 if i want to it will help but not needed  but C5 is fine and sense C6 is as cheap as c5 if not cheaper why not ?.




I think  100 is the norm now for most sites on the wed and backbone is at 1000, i wish it was like that every were with IP6 .

2193  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: GekkoScience BM1384 Project Development Discussion on: September 24, 2015, 12:44:36 AM

I wonder how many people would be willing to sell dead S5 boards for about $10 a pop? I'm thinking on an 8x BM1384 pod (since we can't get better chips) but chip cost would be way too high and also I don't have enough anyway. If I could get a bunch of dead S5 boards and pull chips, it wouldn't be great but it'd knock down the price quite a bit.


I'll give you two i was going to thrash, you pay shipping or give me some kind of way ship them paid, i want nothing in return, i won't ever ask for any thing either. unless i pay for it  Smiley . one other time in a PM I asked if you wanted them "). it's cool if you don't, I'll thrash them .

I did rhe same thing with a out side gas Generator sense it was to load to use were i live unless the power went out still do from time to time to save in the cost of Electricity but it really make no sense now to do because of the cost of gas it is cheaper using Electricity at one time it wasn't thu .


 but nice you can do it with a S7 and keep the temps cool enough to run it at stock speed Smiley .

2198  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Will this PSU work for my new S5? on: September 23, 2015, 05:01:10 AM
ive been buying these for all my miner .


 http://holybitcoin.com/product/hp-1200-watt-common-slot-psu-bundle/

I love those break out boards plug and play. no screws to worry about or wires coming lose etc .

http://www.ebay.com/itm/151798626307?_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT


I Buy the break out boards from holybits and then hit ebay for the PSU that work with those board and may pay about the same but the PSU's on EBay are new and come with a year warranty and so far  all the ones i bought on ebay are new or seem to be when i get them .


This is a cheaper, way cheaper version of a ATX Psu of the same watts etc. they seem to work as well as a gold standard ATX 900 watt PSU can't say yet on the 1200 watt part til next month when i finally have my 240 lines installed the right way and a new 40 slot box is put in my house.
 

I have two PDA's and the right plugs waiting .

IL be able to power two miner per PSU for a while one S5 with one S 3, safely.  S3 still seem to have a use or will til my power cost goes up in years times or the DIff goes to high to make them worse less .

O.K., 1st things 1st. I know this is not something any normal person would do but I wanted to try it.
I failed. I am now wondering if anyone ever got it to work.

So, Microsoft supports Windows 10 on the RPi2

https://ms-iot.github.io/content/en-US/GetStarted.htm

So I decided to install it and get BFGMiner to run on it.

After not getting BFG to compile time after time after time, I did something (and I don't know what) and it worked.
So I tried to run it. Nothing, nothing at all happens.

So I gave up, will try again later when I have time.

Has anyone had any luck doing this?

-Dave



so you got  BFG and Windows IoT working, I haven't really tried yet been waiting for more to be done with it on PI 2 but may now .


and i would think down load the BFG zip file it is at 5.3 and complied all ready  then use the BFG.exe in Windows IoT on a Pi2 . can't say i haven't  tried yet .  not sure if loads like a normal windows GUI would then click the bfg.exe.
2200  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: I was given a bunch of habaneros but... on: September 22, 2015, 07:23:45 PM
The original forum thread setup for this spoke about a tool they designed to check the cores etc... Does ANYONE have any of these tools backed up? Firmware etc?



one last question  what bfg  or cg miner command line are you using ,  some times not having the right conmans or full set in a line will make both software miners think there is no drivers for the hardware.


other wise



gl




Well let me grab a few of the commands I was testing and post them here. I even tried just running the miners and feeding in the URL etc after the fact

Also, thanks man! Appreciated


runing it the URL way in most cases won't find a driver unless you  add something like

 when it asks for a option i think.

-S all


 that lone might find any driver needed if bfg lets says has it enable, I'm looking at the BFG read me to see whats on by default, i know BFG has support for that hardware but can't remember  if that's one you have to enable and  recompile so it is on . same in CFMINER, i like BFG more but both are very good software miners, I use both as needed.


here is a download link to those tools you asked about

 https://bitbucket.org/gateway69/hf-tool/downloads

but it looks like you may need a ubuntu OS installed PC or non windows installed  PC for most of those boards to work right or pI, cubieboard, or andriod controllers  if you don't want a full blown PC running them etc


i may try to get few of those boards for fun to learn with .
