This has nothing to do with the pool but would you guys like me to share a hot stock tip with you? Are you into comic book? What about comics books going into a app? Do you know who YouTube Superstar Markiplier's is? Well there's a penny stock he is tied to that is going to become a multimillion-dollar company overnight. Well it's actually happening right now! Anyways sorry for being off topic but I just wanted to share with you guys< it's a heck of an opportunity.

I just sent some coin to NH and I'll be renting some here in a bit =)

Please not penny stocks.

My next door neighbor lost his home on penny stocks.

I told him back in 2012 give me some money I will hook you up with BTC.

He would have made some money.. He was crushed with penny stocks.

with fan pointed down  it pulls cooler air from below.

you can try an infra red gun to find the hot spots

http://www.amazon.com/HDE-Non-Contact-Infrared-Temperature-Thermometer/dp/B002YE3FS4

Phil is pointing you twords an amazing tool I use one similar to this more often then I ever thought I would.   So nice to walk in mining area and get reads around machines and see my CFM's get maximum effect.  With summer heats coming (and raising some already) I use it more and more.  

I'm surprised on RM series I have 2 RM1000's and they always worked fine for me no heatsinks.  So not sure if made nicer then smaller ones or what.  But I have had them for quite a while with good luck.

rm1000 is very good gear but  it is pretty hot in one spot.  I mine with it in a pc 2 r9  390's  doing eth coin  pulls 550 watts.

case has a lot of air flow so it is all good.

they waited for me to sell those 9 at 450   Roll Eyes

Could you sell a few more to drive the price even higher???   Smiley

More to the point though, it looks like most folks will have guessed too high, me included.   Sad

yeah but a few people still could hit it.

I guess I could sell 2 more tonight  at 468.

would leave me coinless.

maybe I will sell them.

I always have problems selling, just so much memories/sweat and tears in it.  I do pay electric bill out of it as if I did not I would go pretty deep in investing quick.   I can't even think of my sell number.

I also don't think I could sell them all, it makes me feel like I have skin in the game that + miners.  Makes it more fun for me.   But I agree one day I would not mind fiat for some I have saved up.... just not quite to where i feel ready to sell them.

Wife wants a new kitchen.

She has been so good about me mining in house for the last four years I don't mind cashing out coins.

I have 8 ½ avalon 6's and 1 s-7   if coins jump high  all that gear will jump in price for resale.  Or I can just mine with them at the solar array.

No need to cool the PSU. If for any reason it gets too hot, it will just shutdown.

Inside a computer case a PSU intake is very hot and it doesn't have issues so with your PSU being outside in the open air shouldn't be a problem.

that psu has been know to have thermal heat failure due to not shutting down.

I will find some links

113 blocks in about 22 hours  should be 132

so  we are 19 blocks under today

Yeah, my affirmation is wrong, we are still steady at the moment. I was sure the hashrate was going back up ;-)

What scares me is once they get next gen chips lined out.   Then speculation goes out the door it's all guessing.  The good news is still the price.  Man has it been w a good week on it.

Going around 468... I mean we might hit 500 in not to long if it keeps this up which is great.

we are doing well.  

I did a big order 2ph and we are now over 40ph as a pool.


CKPool:     40,194.80THs

Did you get a good price ? and is that a long rent ??

I did 1 hour at 2ph  rate was 0.003  which is meh.  but two fast blocks and I have 27 hours left on the 2 ph spike on my  shift chart.

I have gone in and out with bigger rentals for a month .  Really good timing with them so far.

The 40PH we are running at the last few days is awesome. Sad to see the payments per block go down but the increase in blocks will make up for it. Might just have to buy more machine to make up for the lower payment..lol

you know I was looking at coins pushing 465  and the next diff under 2%

I wondered do I get 1 or 2 s-7's

Even though I no longer buy from them since they never fixed my batch 1 issue.  It is tempting.

Instantaneously we're sitting at like -4%.



And it keeps trending down.  How low can you go, how low can you go?  Let's do the difficulty limbo!

this year we had a 117 block day.  = -27 

  feb 24th 2016

maybe we get that low today

95 blocks in 18 hours and 12 minutes     this is - 14 blocks

Maybe we go under 120 blocks on the day.

It's like someone just turned off 150 Peta ... doesn't smell good. Bitfury upgrading old hardware ?
Holy cow yea, maybe even more than that.  Look at the huge drop in hash rate!  I think a large hardware upgrade is coming to a farm, I don't think this is the same peak power we've seen on and off, this is something more.

well best case is  it stays off two jumps and does not fully fire back until the end of may.

for now  this has been a very good diff  


price went from 421 to 464  thats 10%

Hello everyone i want to sell two antminers next month with bill and warranty. i want to sell it in the original price.


this belongs here :


https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=75.0


no one will pay you original price  .


the antminer s-7  if that is what you want to sell has dropped in price every week for more then 3 months.

It is only 533 usd and with a 100 dollar coupon it is only  433 usd  add 50 to ship it is 483
30857  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: Longest found block streak by a pool? on: April 25, 2016, 03:53:49 PM
Not long ago I was watching I believe Antpool finding 4 blocks in a row and it made me wondering...

Which pool has the highest streak of finding a lot blocks in a row?

maybe asic miner

 friedcat


they had a big piece  of the network in spring 2013


maybe   cex.io   they were really big a while back


here is a simple   way to figure out odds..

if you have 50% of the network

0.500000 one block in a row
0.250000
0.125000
0.062500
0.031250
0.015625    so about 63 to 1 shot  6  in a row


if you have 40%

0.400000
0.160000
0.064000
0.025600
0.010240
0.004096  so about 244 to 1 shot 6 in a row

if you have 30%

0.300000
0.090000
0.027000
0.008100
0.002430
0.000729  so about 1371 to 1 shot 6 in a row


based on the math above
6 in a row has had to have happened more then once.

30858  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: ANTMINER S7 is available at bitmaintech.com with 4.86TH/s, 0.25J/GH on: April 25, 2016, 03:42:59 PM
Can you at least make it to the login page or the initial password screen, then to this main page with blank data?

If so,  you have a few options

1st be to factory reset the S7 with a paperclip.  There is a pin hole next to the Ethernet connector and use a paperclip and press and hold the button for about 10 seconds and let it go and wait for about 30 seconds and then physically reboot the S7.  This may restore it to the factory default setting.

If this does not help, you may want to go find 8gb microSD card, and create a bootable MicroSD card and insert it into the microSD slot of the S7 and power it off and power it back on.  Let the S7 complete the boot process and if possible, let it run as is for about 5 minutes then your Beagle Bone Black may be restored to the factory default setting.

Image and Imaging Tool:
https://bitmaintech.com/support.htm?pid=007201604120945219855QObfk20066C

If none of these works, your Beagle Bone Black or the Control PCB may be damaged.

Antminer S7 B10 not connecting to the setup page. Nothing is configurable, miner is inaccesible.

Someone told me they fixed this in a new firmware update. Is this true? Im afraid to do a firmware update and that my miner will brick.
Nice to see you return

All April  23rd dates above.


and this is:

A Jan 14th date

 https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1165628.msg13548650#msg13548650

So you have been gone for 100 days.

A) I hope you stick around and help people with s-7 gear.

B)  please solve my s-7 batch 1 issue  it under preformed and you never sent me any compensation for it.

C) based on the compensation you gave to us at li's group it should be 67 USD.

So send me
67 USD worth of BTC here is my address

 1JdC6Xg3ajT3rge3FgPNSYYFpmf53Vbtje

I have talked to yoshi months ago and sent a lot of emails asking for this money

no money.

I even said send me a coupon when I buy my next s-7

I purchased 17 of them no coupon.

Do not say the 100 dollar coupon counts  as it is not any bigger then the ones sent with out my bad batch 1
Frankly it would need to be a 167 dollar coupon not a 100.

 I don't understand a company like yours .  I gave you 50,000 usd in business  I supported you gear.  At this moment I am trying to help a few people with bad s-7s'

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1423701.0


And you blew me off for 67 USD  that is truly dumb on the part of your company. really bad business.

It has reached the point that I wrote some truly nasty posts.

That is not my nature. I rather you fix this issue for me then chase after you and other bitmaintech workers.

Good luck Phil on getting this resolved. I have been following this and am waiting to see if you get whats due to you.

It is truly amazingly terrible business on their part.

But this crypto coin business has had these type of issues.

Like the exchange vircurex. taking 167,000 dev coins from me  about 0.007 btc

Never answering an email.  So I stopped using them.

Meanwhile  I have been a 3 ½  year customer with them.  Paying close to .5 btc in fees with trades.

So for the sake of stealing my 167,000 dev coins from me  worth 0.007 btc   they will no longer get my steady business.  which was worth .5 btc to them.

Truly dysfunctional business practice.

So my biggest problem now in the world of crypto coins  is only one piece of gear for sha256 the Avalon 6.
So no gear gets purchased for now.

One less exchange to use. Vircurex   (0.007 btc  is cheap)

This kills coins most likely the actions above will slowly kill the game.

I sold off a lot of coins the last week  and I will wind gear down for the summer.

30860  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Avalon 6 Derping at 30C ambiant? on: April 25, 2016, 01:30:16 PM
That's uhm, REALLY cool. No pun intended. I could probably build some of these at some point. The problem i have right now is sourcing box fans like these that don't vibrate and make annoying noise.

In Canada i can only find the one i want at like 60-80$ (nuts).

Anyways i may find the time to do this during summer. Though for now i need something quick i can buy that will help with the cramped space in my "server room".

So any suggestions for something good (and maybe quiet) that will do the trick online and get here fast would be good.

Ah, looking over at Amazon.ca, I see what you mean - they all have brutal shipping charges, that sucks.  The one thing to keep in mind is that I imagine when you run a box fan off something like the first video, you'll probably be running it at it's lowest speed, so vibration and noise really shouldn't be that big an issue.  You can also just design around whatever fan you CAN get easily and cheaply, that's one of the advantages of rolling your own.  TBH, the quality you're going to get building your own is going to probably be much higher than if you buy one of those consumer-ish things - most of those work like crap and aren't even worth the money.  

You might also check Craigslist - I can't speak for where you're at, but where I am there's probably well over 50+ box fans for sale on there right now, most asking ~$10.   There's also a ton of evaps as well, but they probably aren't as common where you're at.


I didnt have much luck, so i might take my chance with whatever Home Depot or Canadian Tire has.

I'm interested in making the home made Evap cooler, any place Online i might be able to get what i need for cheap, shipped to Canada? I'd guess i'd need the tubing, the pump and the foam thing that will be soaked in water.

I can get the wood, nails, fan etc easily i think. Though i'm not sure what to buy/use for the basin.
how about a cement mixing tub?

http://www.homedepot.com/p/Medium-Mixing-Tub-887101A/202086173


I don't know what store you can find it in Canada  ,but these are sturdy and low cost.
