So..

You're based in the UK
You have these in stock
You want 30 BTC per unit

I'll have 5, are you ok with me picking them up and paying you the 150 BTC there and then? Happy to wait around for confirmations.

Almost, but not quite - if the difficulty increases by 18%, then the time to reach that change will be 18% less than 2 weeks. (because the 2016 blocks were found 18% faster).

Close, but it's actually 1/1.18 ~ 0.85 or 15% less than 2 weeks. 100% increase would be 50% less, or 1 week etc.

Good catch, I stand corrected.

This is assuming an 18% increase in difficulty each checkpoint. Which I understand is about every 2 weeks??

I love how as the price here goes up, the cheap shares on BTC-TC get bought up at the same time Cheesy

Not to be rude... I doubt you have eaten in any michelin rated 4 star restaurants.



Why would you say that. Its not rude to say but kind of retarded. It's not that hard. You book a reservation then go.

Yeah? Which one? Smiley

Question do you send your food back at a restaurant if something wrong? Don't mess with the people preparing your food (asic). Dont like it, go to another restaurant.

WTF? Yes I do, and in every single case so far the problem has been fixed and they're more than apologetic and quite often there's a free round of drinks or free dessert thrown in.

This is called customer service.

then you've eaten a lot of spit and human fluids.


think you need to find some better restaurants dude Smiley

The concept of course is completely bs. I will not call names but some "Hero" posters here (especially in this thread) are a joke.

Sheesh, it's only an automatically assigned title based on number of posts. If it was renamed to "OAP Member" to be more in fitting with the previous titles (Jr, Sr) would that make you feel better? Get over it Tongue

1) you need getwork ports (not stratum, use stratum proxy instead)

Yep.

Quote
2) I doubt blade's firmware can resolve domain names, try IP

They can, I had them working with hostnames, there's settings in the blade for DNS servers.

Zaih what you are not seeing is the losing players and how much they lost.

If I were a little more paranoid I'd say Zaih is dropping these ideas that the RNG is skewed in the player's favour just to plant the seed in people's heads that they might be able to take advantage and beat the house, encouraging more traffic to the site.

But I'm not that paranoid, oh no Wink

They reset automatically after a period of not doing anything as a kind of failsafe.

You can ping it so network looks ok. The loss is probably just it rebooting, wouldn't worry about that for now.

You need to use port 8337 for getwork on Eligius: http://eligius.st/wiki/index.php/Getting_Started

These blades don't do stratum, I'd recommend a local stratum proxy for optimum performance.
314  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: [Guide] Comprehensive ASICMiner Blade Setup on: May 19, 2013, 02:51:31 PM
You want to use an 8 pin. 6 pin is still only rated for 75W, while 8 pin for 150W. The 8 pin has 5 blacks and 3 yellows. You want to use as many as you can.

Right, but doesn't this rating refer to the plug rather than the cabling? I trust AWG (if they're not lying, as you mentioned) and 18AWG * 2 is plenty sufficient.
315  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: [Guide] Comprehensive ASICMiner Blade Setup on: May 19, 2013, 11:07:56 AM
You can just see from the way its bending that its not true 18AWG. I'm going to change the guide to recommend PCI-E 8 pin based power as there's been too many burnt cables in the US. Its annoying because the proper cabling doesn't move above room temp.

+1. That's what I advise people to use, two yellows, and two blacks, each at 18AWG, ideally from a PCI-e cable with the plug chopped off. Have had zero issues reported back to me.

With proper wiring I don't think it's really necessary to double up any more than that, ie this extra doubling of the blacks.

They'll already have a significant enough portion of the network hashrate without further risking 51%ing it by adding more miners to their hashing.
317  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: [Guide] Comprehensive ASICMiner Blade Setup on: May 19, 2013, 10:57:43 AM
I can't see any writing on them - what AWG are those wires?

No fee on the payouts?  Undecided

Given you only had to make one transaction for all the payouts, not including a fee on it was a little tight - it would have been a miniscule percentage of your house profit?

Still waiting for a confirmation some hours later. Hopefully it gets through eventually.
