Won't it go on forever if the amount of humans (or other future full members of our society) keeps growing?
Yes, I was only specifically referring to the block reward halving.

Stability is NOT good
Since there is a limited number of bitcoins, if more people start using and buying them the price must rise.
If the price stay the same then it means that btc adoption is a bit slow. Wich is not a problem now, after all we still lack infrastructure, easier clients etcetc. But in the future if there will be more ppl using btc then the price must rise.
Stability is good if the price rise is extremely gradual. Bitcoin's deflation mechanism takes literally a century to play itself out.

Now if we could have the opposite. Go into Walmart with Bitcoins and exchange them for dollars you would have the perfect setup for wire transfers of money that could instantly compete with Western Union.
At least bit-pay can do a direct deposit of cash from BTC...
Should have that launched within 4 weeks or so. Aw hell yeah.

Is it possible for bitinstant to convert the funds directly to bitcoins instead of dealing with mtgox or coinapult?
The whole point of their business is to not be an exchange. That's how they were able to get a money transmitter's license in the first place.

And price stability as a bad thing, why? You aren't entitled to see a market rise if you happen to be long on it. It seems to me that investing in Bitcoin is getting closer to real world investment returns instead of being a "too-good-to-be-true" investment that is making large returns. Having huge spikes and dips does nothing for wider market adoption.

We had written a long post however we are prevented from posting it due to limitations. We are very sorry. We are trying to resolve this matter however we are limited in our capacities.
Post it on your website. You can have it be 30 pages long if you'd like. the limitations are not technical but legal... Are you sure? They never actually came out and said that. They haven't said a whole lot of anything, to be honest.

Not talking is what gets your ass sued. Being up front and honest is a better way to avoid lawsuits.

High-Current fans are not recommended. The reason is their inductive load and the noise injected to the power plane of the board. The protection diode placed before the FAN header can withstand max 5A of current. So this sets the upper limit to 5A, which translates into 60W on 12 Volts rails. This amount of power, along with the power consumption of the board itself can exceed the Barrel Jack current rating, which is why we advise not to take any risks in this regard.
Regards, BF Labs Inc.
Are there 2 different diodes, one for each header? Or just one that covers both of them? Also, if the barrel jack was replaced with something else, would the board itself support that current draw without issues? I'm guessing the warranty would be void in this case.

How about one spokesperson that knows how to ask scammers the right questions? He could be the one that weeds out the idiots, and then the lenders could then do their due diligence on whatever is left. I think after a while, all the new users scammers would come to know that this user is going to start asking them hard questions, and would either ignore him, which would set off red flags, or they would go away.
Aren't most of us are playing the spokesperson part nowadays in the lending subforum? It's like a 'Please Troll Me' subforum now, that's why I proposed this. I hate to spoil the fun though. Yeah I noticed that, and each noob gets a deluge of lenders picking him apart, which is kind of a waste of everyone's time. I figured one known trustable member could do preliminary vetting.

Tuniq TX-4 is discontinued, but you can still get it a few places. It has the best thermal conductivity in real-world applications, but is expensive. Tuniq TX-2 is almost as good, and much less expensive.

Also, make sure your existing box has a PSU that will support a 7970 if you go that route.

Also, search for pooler's fork of cpuminer. It's been better optimized than what is in cgminer' sources anyways. Maybe you will get 40 mhash/s instead of 30!
|
|
|
Or am I missing the point here?
Could it be related to the fact that a Bitcoin hash only needs 61 rounds instead of 64?

giszmo, why not set up your own service? Perhaps watchtwoord would give or sell the source to you.

on the personal front, i suggest stop doing any effort on these pipelined architecture.
wha chew talkin' bout, Willis? It sounds to me that he is saying several Spartan 6 each doing a small part of the work in parallel would do a better job than the same number of Spartan 6 each doing their own thing. I think what he means is that partially rolled hashers would be faster than fully unrolled hashers, on this architecture. It coincides with the info from http://bitfury.org/
