She didn't come up with the pill? Then who did?

AFAIK, it was her github repo where all the code came from so i, along with everyone else, assumed she built it.

Nope,she stole it from someone.  Not sure if she made any money from it, but the guy that made it never saw a dime and she used the software as a stepping stone to get her into the real big scams.

her github is empty now.

word on discord was that a well known coder here (i will not mention the name) came up with the pill, she just took credit for it.

go to wizards (ohgodawizard) discord there is a huge screen grab of dialog there. lots of info. its up to the reader to determine how much is true.

all i know is while sqrl may of made mistakes they are still around trying to make things right. meanwhile kristy/ohgodagirl just pranced off into the sunset abandoning everyone who trusted her.
Let me guess.. when the accusations started or even questions were raised, people just screamed "sexism"?  Roll Eyes
No, she screamed "scapegoat"!
But never actually bothered explaining what happened from her perspective. Not even her lawyers (I'm assuming she's got them involved) made any kind of statement. That's what's so fukcing dirty about it.
I get ppl are mad but , the whole problem with this industry is greed...

Greed made people take leave of thier senses and give an unproven team who was not even a single entity , millions of dollars to provide a mining advantage that made no sense to me really. 

How many times have we seen companies take money only to use it to build thier own gear and send thier investors either late and worthless gear or nothing at all.

Greed is probably the same reason they broke up and Ran off with peoples crypto, lol you are all crying and blaming ohgod , lol why not blame everyone equally? Who accepted the funds squirl or minority , who the fuck knows lol.

It’s whole thing is kinda funny to me , one person has gone silent , the other folks are claiming to be trying to make good which means nothing really to me.  Just because they say they will make good is more of a delaying tactic TM beekeeper lol.

I would honestly rather they went silent if I was invested so I could move the fuck on with my life lol
Well, it was calculated risk, so to speak.
SQRL/Allmine/Squirrel Research was/is an established company with track record and everything.
You are also long enough in the game to know that timing can be everything. Get in too late and you get crumbs.

OGAG had some credentials to her name. She used to work for a large hosting company (the name escapes me, blame altzheimer or something lol), so her setting up that scheme in collaboration with SQRL was believable (and tbh worked out to some extent).

It's not even the parts that didn't work out that annoy me. The whole thing wasn't even a scam. The hardware was delivered, and put to hosting. It's the "F you all, speak to my lawyers" attitude that followed which annoys me, nothing else.
She was anoying from day 1 , idk what u expected her to act differently after they got you guys $$, I would expect that to make her/them more smug and anoying.

You just proved my point , TIMING they mined early when those fpgas were quite profitable internally, and delivered to you guys after they were basically worthless, it’s the same old trick all pre-order teams pull

It was exactly what I expected to happen

263  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Tesla PowerWall 2 + 50 RTX 2080Ti GPUs on: March 22, 2019, 02:29:44 AM

No... You've got it all wrong. For power, I have to invest only $175,000 for 2 MWh batteries + 150 solar panels (off-the-grid) which would power up to 400 RTX 2080Ti GPUs.
    

so, 400 x 2080Ti GPUs = 400x 0.2kW = 80kW

solar panels must be in 400-800kW range, then (i.e 1300 - 2600 panels, and not 150 Smiley )


I though he said 50 2080TI not 400 lol, for 400 of those you would need like an accre of solar panels.

Instead you should maybe do 600 1660ti maybe , heck 800 1660 TI would give you the same hash power as 400 2080TI at about half the power, you would need far more space tho
264  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Zilminer - mine POW coin in dual mine mode with almost no power use!!!!! on: March 22, 2019, 01:06:17 AM
Hi,

for those itnerested, i have done 1 day testing,

runing together 1GH rigs dual mining eth and zil

START:
Hashrate   1 Gh/s
PoWs Accepted   294
PoWs Submitted   375

END:
Hashrate   1 Gh/s
PoWs Accepted   307
PoWs Submitted   398

so for 1 day 13 shares accepted / 23 shares submited = 13 x 9zil = 117zil/day = x0.018 = 2.1usd/day with 1Gh/s rigs
That’s terrible you should run your own node, 1ghs is enough to power 1 node , you would get 200 to 300 zil a day.

I have 5 nodes , 1ghs pointed to each one even got in ds committee and I pulled 500 in one day from that node

* re reading your results that doesn’t make sense , I was getting 6 or 7 shares per 160mhs rig myself on this pool, still have a few rigs on it, so if you have 1ghs you should have at least 40 or 50 shares a day which is more reasonable

Hello guys,
I was navigating through the web and I found this information about RTX 2080ti GPU.

Quote
Power Consumption

The GeForce RTX 2080 Ti registers ~277W through our stress test and almost 279W in our gaming loop (nearly 20W higher than Nvidia's official TDP rating).



Reference: https://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/nvidia-geforce-rtx-2080-ti-founders-edition,5805-10.html

Well, the question is what is the exact power consumption for mining?
I guess based on this information, a 2080ti gpu is consuming ~279 watts (for gaming) ok, let's say ~ 300 watts for mining
Therefore, a single 13.5 kWh Tesla PowerWall 2 will power approximately 45 GPUs. Guys, correct me if i'm wrong, i'm no expert on this... thanks Smiley  

6 Tesla PowerWall 2s will roughly power 270 RTX 2080ti GPUs... 12 Tesla PowerWall 2s will roughly power 540 RTX 2080ti GPUs. But only if i'm right!
Lol this is funny to read , he thinks it provides that power over  24 hrs smh

Sold some rvn yesterday it climbed past  0.00001


BCI is floating around 0.000028  would love to see an up tick

Grin dropped again to 0.0006145

Doge I have more the 30000 hope for an uptick to 0.00000085

lastly

LTC is doing okay 0.0147

I mine LTC and Doge at the big solar array

Grin and BCI at the small solar array



I think a good uptick would help me a lot.

I also think  ohgodagirl and sql = a large mess

Mostly due to sql not her.  My reasoning is sql was the "real" company so what were they thinking they new they took in all that money and had no working prototypes.  All the numbers were lies.  They never showed a working acorn hashing the number they claimed.

to this day  they never did it.  If you are a real company why do that risk your business with basically lies upon lie upon lie.

Lawsuits are around the corner.

ohgodagirl basically went bankrupt due to the price crash  bad but less sleazy the sql.

I would rate her a c-  and him an f
I can’t feel much sympathy for poeoplr who lost $$ on the fpga scams , and it’s not just squirrel lol there were like 3 or more that took people for a ride.  I posted early on both threads ... we have seen this story before , they have no units in the wild , not even reviewable engineering samples and ppl threw millions at them , what could go wrong lol.

I’d like to say this is the last time people get scammed by preorders on this board but I’d be fooling myself, if anyone should take owenership as well is the idiots that put money into basically another ico due to greed.

Yeah u got ripped off but you had ample warning , we have seen this same scenario play out countless times :  IF THEY ARE NOT SHIPPING FROM STOCK ITS AT YOUR OWN RISK, don’t come crying back to the board
268  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: 8th Alt coin thread. Or what to do now that asics are all over the place. on: March 21, 2019, 10:37:57 AM
1/4 the hashrate on XMR now;  those ASICS really squeeze out the little guys for sure.


If asics/FPGA weren't manufactured and used in such a scandalous way, or if the hardware was cheap;  then they wouldn't be such a bad thing.   Similar to the initial BTC hardware days......    But over the last 2-3 years;  the hardware has become increasingly more shady in terms of price and time to public market...    which drove XMR to act the way they are by forking every 6, and now (from what I read) 3 months....

I notice a nice steady nethash now;  as well as lower nonces in the blocks recently....   This is a true telltale sign that the asics were owning the world for a while.  You could tell when the gigantic FPGA farms were turning on and off for a day or two at a time.   Block times and nethash looking like a roller coaster.   Definitely not normal... all of this is pretty much gone from the network now.


Such a catch 22 of a subject no matter what stance you take.

I am enjoying my profitability jumping way back up on my rig full of outdated hardware that acts as my space heater.

I really hope that ETH devs decide to fork to ProgPOW in the next few months and it will be interesting to see how many ASICs are actually mining ETH.

I am guessing that many of these ETH ASICs are private and were never sold to the general public, only the inefficient ones Bitmain sold which was a similiar efficency like a GPU.

I am guessing that 50% of all ETH hashrate is some form of ASIC or FGPA.

In my eyes;  ETH has always been somewhat shady....

Dev control of network...   Programmable nature of ETH....  smart contracts and the fallacies therein that have been exploited countless times now..... etc...   I could just never trust it.



But;  like other coins;  if it gets hyped enough;  it doesn't matter is nobody actually uses it for any of the root purposes;  people buy into the hype.

I too am interested to see how much of a shady foundation ETH has been sitting on nethash-wise.



Now these are just opinions;  and hopefully I made it clear why they are my opinions.  I do not expect anyone to adopt them, but just simply understand the logic behind them as my stance.


I hope XMR holds true.   I actually believe its ability to be an anonymous coin if used in the proper manner.

As others have alluded, the shady piece is ohgodagirl and progpow.  I can't believe the developers bought (caved) into the hype. Call it centralized, but ETH is pretty stable, and thats why it holds its value.  The last thing they need to do is tie their wagon to a new algo that is hyped by an accused scammer.  Also keep in mind since profits are in the dumpster everyone is clamoring to rid the world of anything that is not a GPU.  If this were 2 years ago people could care less and would be stepping over each other to get the new asic or fpga.  Switching algos on Eth is a solution looking for a problem.  
You sound retarded, ASICS are a plague upon most cryptoS, they dilute earnings for the masses and make decentralized assets centralized into the hands of the Chinese basically, who are actually anti crypto

ASICS are a good thing what are u smoking lol

The eth dag is going to make most ASICS and 3 to 4 gig cards useless soon anyways so moving to progpow which supports lower memory cards is most likely going to be a must at some point , so it’s more than just about oh god a girl and her involvement or non involvement.   They will not be able to reliably secure thier network unless new ASICS are made next year so might as well fork.

For as much as people bash ohgod and her team they did provide the masses with the ethpill for free , which is more than any scammy asic manufacturer has done, screw shitmain and thier coupons
269  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: 1600 series Nvidia GPUs are significantly better than everything else. on: March 20, 2019, 08:04:55 PM
So according to my findings, no, 1600 series Nvidia GPUs are not significantly better than everything else.

And that is not a claim I ever made. I was pointing out that lunos advice and outlook on things was very one sided to his situation and when you take into account the price of the cards the 1660Ti is a much better choice as a way to get into mining without breaking the bank. I was referring to the price/performance ratio and the payback times involved. No matter what algo you pick, the payback on the 2080 makes it a horrible choice for mining and I stand by that statement.



Not true at all  according to whattomine .  If your mining at 10 cent watt rate as an average home miner mining ethereum at 30 hashrate at 70 watts and if you use the 2080 rtx to mine zcoin at 3.6 hash rate at 150w.  The 2080 rtx actually has a faster pay off period. About 1376 days to payback 1660 ti for $289 for the evga gaming edtion or 1344 payback for the top of the line $780 dollar for evga xc gaming edition.  Even faster payoff if you choose the cheaper 2080 rtx gigabytes at $730 (1258 days)

So now you gota ask yourself.  What has better resale value, what's more future proof,   Would you rather be stuck with some 1660 ti or stuck with a 2080 rtx.   I think the answer is quite clear that the 2080 rtx is the most superior cost effect mining card to date.

If i bought a 1660 ti I would have major buyers remorse I could have bought a better card like a 2080 rtx and have faster ROI


2080 does seem like the sweet spot , 2070 seems not bad either for $489

To me the 2070 is the Best Buy , it has the power of a 1080ti , etc cores and $300 newly less than a 2080 rtx
270  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Antminer Z11 equihash miner from Bitmain Released - Antminer S17 PRO 2nd GEN on: March 20, 2019, 07:16:29 AM
Is the Z11 already sold out or has it just not started selling yet? At $1242 it's sub 100 day payback, though that's gonna change very quickly once these ship. Also it looks like zcash will fork in Oct? https://forum.zcashcommunity.com/t/the-final-nu2-blossom-network-upgrade-goals/32449

90% of equihash mining rewards is zcash, if it forks this asic is worthless. There's only 5 months of mining time till the fork.

Not alt all. Theirs Komodo that's the next best thing to zcash. I plan to mine this next with z9 mini now that bitmain has more powerful hardware.

Then theirs more skeptical projects like bitcoin private. Might be worth mining at low difficulty if you have z9 mini
Zcash ain’t forking, they love asics
271  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Zilminer - mine POW coin in dual mine mode with almost no power use!!!!! on: March 18, 2019, 04:07:52 AM
This is not POW coin but a lot more complex system each A share is max per one node, to understand you need to read whole white paper
In short we have 3-4 shards of 600 places max while the dev in there have over 70% of their guard nodes and we have rest if we manage to get full 600 POW submition in <1min time, over that imagine their diff retarget shifting 400% up just because we had 100+ A at 34Gh and next diff is 137Gh then on next POW we have 4x less shares and we always lose 600 accapted shares.... don`t ask me why they don`t have smarted diff retarget I am not zilliqa dev

On top of that all shares have <1min to be accepted by each node, so its a race and even there pool from verified accepted shares have 50% nodes that not get in shard so recejt for me is even more.... but its the way network work as this is not POW coin in any way

1. diff is low, many miners submit 600 shares in 10-15sec all shares after that are rejected as shard (600 nodes) is full
2. diff spike 4x we have no hash to make 600+ shares, we make 350-550A all that shares are rejected by network as we did not make 600 nodes (full network not just pool)
3. best case solution diff is same over a day then we can expect ~80% accepted and only rejects when we pass 40-50sec window if shard is full
4. 100% accepted is impossible that would mean 1min POW window took all miners to submit just 600 share no more nor less and all get in network fine

"06:44:21 zilminer Send dummy work to init DAG"

Also older zilminer use fake dag generation and generate a lot rejected shares so it be ready for next POW with almost zero diff (almost no GPU work done), thats why I say you need to watch only for accepted for you hash not rejected as they are part of this sistem

PS: they still work on network I hope they fix it soon
So the moral of this long story is only 600 shares get accepted total per 1 min window?

1 for each node that gets approved as a shard ? How do miners get paid then if the rewards go only to shards

Can you work on adding pow for ziliqua to this miner ? It uses the same ethhash algo, all you would have to do is copy the parts from the source of zilminer where it stops mining main coin , and then starts zil pow 2 min or so befoe the ziliqua pow so it has time to load dag etc, should be very easy to do
274  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: 1600 series Nvidia GPUs are significantly better than everything else. on: March 16, 2019, 07:53:11 PM
1600 series Nvidia GPUs are significantly better than everything else for mining. 

The 1660ti almost matches a 1070's performance with only 75 watts. 

Currently, most mining clients don’t support the 1660 or 1660ti.

Linux drivers currently only have limited support for the 1660 and 1660ti.

The 1670 or 1670ti will be the next GPU that will be optimal to buy for mining. They will likely have a 150-160 watt TDP, with an optimal mining powerlimit around 90-95 watts.

plan accordingly Grin
Is the 1670 confirmed?

Wait lol I saw this too on my setup but how do you know it’s working lol makes no sense to me.
it works stable on 5 rigs more than a week already. both miners give shares, primary coin pool doesn't even notice those dumps on graph. what else do you need? )

so do you stop the claymore miner ? when POW for ZL starts ? , I know you cant run both together or claymore hash goes down or sometimes even crashes

most rigs I keep getting the error - Zlminerhas stopped working - a problem has caused the program to stop working

hard crash of zlminer and primary miner

How can I set a timer on the starting of the miner if I kill the process?

I set a time out on using /timeout 190 but after around 60 seconds it still starts the miner

Any ideas?

Use curl and api and let the zilminer stopping and starting the miner via api. so you get no errors and so on. I have asked if someone need an explanation. But there was no interest.

hmm I’ve heard of curl but I’m on windows , is it even available on there? There should be an easy way via option
Or template to ad a delay to the miner start process via awesomeminer,.

All I want is to delay starting the miner back up when zilminer stops it .
