2821  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: how to optimize my HD 5850 on: December 16, 2013, 09:54:12 PM
I won't be able to recommend any miner* settings because I have stopped mining long ago and no longer remember, but you should be able to get at least 900 MHz on GPU without overvolting and you should underclock the memory to 250-300 MHz, you probably won't be able to have the card run faster than 395-410 MH/s and stay stable 24/7 without increasing the voltage.

I hope you are aware that you won't be able to make any profit by mining BTC with GPUs (it would be much more prudent to mine scrypt-based coins with them).

*you could also mention which miner you're using
2822  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Oops - 20BTC fee paid on .05 transaction? on: December 16, 2013, 09:23:17 PM
That hurts.

I do not know the specifics of the payout protocol of P2Ppool, but couldn't they simply send him the coins back in a great display of altruism?

The fee was distributed among 399 miners, would be difficult to contact all of them:

I probably have some NMC left from 2011 and 2012, I know the emails that I used to access my accounts and still have access to those emails but I might not remember the passwords, I might be able to find at least some of the tx hashes. Have I got any chance of recovering my NMC? I'm not even 100% sure I still had NMC on bitparking at the time the site went down but considering the recent increase in price I would like to be sure.
Anyone can describe their dealings with doublec, were you able to recover your coins?

You could send some other item and try to conceal the cash within that item. Like 50-100 pages of old newspapers and have the banknotes glued to certain specific pages (of course you should inform the other party of your methods).

Why was the thread split?

It was going Off-topic and Meta is the right section for discussing forum rules, moderation, etc.

Shall we turn this place into a black market and sell drugs, weapons and porn as well since bans and prohibition don't work and people can just make these purchases here privately?

All of these are OK provided that it's legal in the seller's and the buyer's countries.

2829  Other / Meta / Split from: [WTB] Bitcointalk accounts on: December 11, 2013, 08:28:44 PM
It's already incredibly difficult to trust people without having to wonder if somebody has just sold their account.

That's good, trust no one, use multisig or SSSS-based escrows, ask for collateral (IDs aren't worth much) and always be a little paranoid.

Banning guns doesn't stop killings, it only means the desperate ones will use different tools (vide UK gun laws and knife legislation) and the determined ones will acquire them illegally. Same with disallowing people from trading accounts, they will just do it elsewhere.

2830  Other / Meta / Split from: [WTB] Bitcointalk accounts on: December 11, 2013, 05:55:05 PM
Selling accounts is not disallowed.

Is there an official reason why? Seems silly that it's allowed or even tolerated.

Whether it's allowed or not people will still want to do it, and there's nothing mods/admins can do to prevent it from occurring outside the forums, so at least by allowing it we raise awareness and people aren't lulled into a false sense of security.

If you'd like to start an auction, visit this board: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=73.0

And please specify the minimum bid, bid increments, and end date. You can also set up a timer: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=287020.msg3615187#msg3615187

The list is still full and I am going to PM theymos again. If it's not possible to add more posts, I'll start a new thread. Apologies for the delay in updating.

I also PM'd theymos, maybe just wait a bit, until the weekend at least. It would be more convenient to have everything in one thread instead of having it scattered among a few.

2835  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: Just-Dice.com : Invest in 1% House Edge Dice Game on: December 10, 2013, 02:43:09 PM
where did all the invested BTC go?
Investment was around 60k coins I think and
now itīs just 32k coins?

Just due to the recent bad run of the house? Or are
there other possible explanations?

There can be a few reasons:

- low or negative profit during the term that someone held bitcoins on just-dice
- increase in BTC and altcoin prices, people wanting to invest elsewhere or not comfortable in keeping too much money at one place
- Christmas
2836  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: v0.1 on: December 09, 2013, 07:30:14 PM
I recently found the 0.1 source code on one of my computers. I can send it if you want it, but I'm pretty severely disabled these days, so it may take me a while to respond.

I too would like a copy of the original source code. If you can email it to me that would be awesome! I'll PM you my email address.

Links were already posted, they are both working, and one of them is posted right above your post:

His real name is Andrew Nollan, Freeway (posting above yours) used to know him, also teflone had some info on him, but that was all 1.5 years ago, I lost all hope of recovering the money and would be surprised if anyone succeeded in recovering theirs (luckily for me I was one of the least affected victims). Good luck, though!
2838  Other / CPU/GPU Bitcoin mining hardware / Re: Question? Why are hardware companies not just using the hardware themselves??? on: December 08, 2013, 11:21:26 PM
can someone answer me this question.  If the companies themselves that manufacture the hardware systems why don't they just make then and mine for themselves?  Rather than sell?   Doesn't make any sense to me.

But they are already doing it, sometimes just stress-testing but sometimes looking to earn some extra coins until the next rise in difficulty, thus affecting the profitability of their customers' investments. AFAIK BFL, Avalon and KNC all used to do it.

You haven't seen a crash yet. I've seen Bitcoin crash from 30 to 0.01, it hasn't died yet.
From $30 to $0.01 you say?  Roll Eyes
I remember that day, and I cherish that memory.
It was more like from $18ish to $0.01, though, and I was watching live.
Ah, memories Grin

That doesn't count as Gox reversed those trades.
