The reason for selling my accounts is that im done with these thing im going out in the real life now done with digital goods.

And why should i do all of that now to prove this low life shit that its my account. I have been here for many years and now i should listen to this low life no way man.

you are real crazy i told him i want to sell my account and its not hacked he kept on saying that its hacked he did not stop until i told him what he wanted to hear. Stupid fucker

in other post i see etc growing up next month.
he say TOW go TOS
but i dont know this right or no  Shocked

Do you PoW to PoS? The Ethereum will go grom PoW to PoW some time next year, but it is not definite yet.

before they said summer 2016, then fall. now the rumor is next year.

So, will two 480s be 75% faster than one Nano in Vertcoin mining? This determines whether I sell my Nano or not...

the Rx480 only mines vertcoin at 7.5MH
the GTX1070 mines it at about 36MH (40MH with overclocking)

Does a Nano hash at 4.4 MH/s then? I dunno, honestly.

you said you own a nano - seems easy to find out by yourself Wink

326  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / multi-algo switching software for linux/ubuntu? on: July 26, 2016, 12:45:47 AM
right now im using nicehash miner because it does a pretty good job of switching algorithms for me, but being in windows it has some limitations (such as not being able to run my gtx1070 for ethereum)

is there a comparable program for ubuntu?
327  Economy / Computer hardware / WTS: SP30, Sp31, SP10 units (Toronto/Montreal, Canada) on: July 26, 2016, 12:19:35 AM
looking to sell some hardware tat doesnt quite make money in my osting location anymore:

3x SP31 in great condition: asking $400/ea or 3/$1000
2x SP30 that have disabled chips (one is 17/30, other is 14/30 - PSUs in the units work fine): asking $300/ea or 2/$500
1x SP10 in great condition: asking $140
1x SP10 that needs to be flashed, boots okay from the uSD card: asking $110

Ideally this hardware is for local pickup in toronto, but pickup in montreal can be arranged if necessary. Shipping is possible but may be cost prohibitive, especially to outside canada.

there is really no reason to sell new brand gpu, that belong to a new generation, so soon, these thing will last until Volta will come out, and until then they will hold a very high value

there is no way the retail price will drop under $400 anytime soon, that is their target price settled by nvidia, removing vat from $400 you will be able to sell them at $330 easily, even in one year

thats what i figure - but better to plan short term so tat long term benefits are more enjoyable

the GTX1070 sould be relevant for 4+ years, just as the 7970 is still relevant to ethereum and can sell for $75+
329  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Ethereum mining still profitable? on: July 26, 2016, 12:10:28 AM
Soon mining will only be profitable for the Chinese and people with free electricity.
Here in my place our electricity is free but the problem is i can afford to buy a good miner or set of GPU or CPu. to mine ethereum right now .. and i heard many people that ethereum right is not profitable to mine..

CPU mining is tough (you need top-notch i7, and returns are pretty meh), but gpu mining can go quite well. with free power a r9-290 card (~150usd) will pay for itself fully within 3-4 months

if you already have a desktop, its easy enough to plug in a gpu or two.
330  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: How will this change the world of mining?? GTX 1080 / 1070 on: July 26, 2016, 12:07:28 AM
average of 29+ with only 110w is good, i think you can push it above 30 while maintaining the same hash/w

too bad this is not working on win 7 yet, need to wait for proper drivers

It's just one hour, to make it work in ubuntu.

mind giving a quick rundown? are you running the newest ubuntu 14? whats your minin program, and te secondary programs for monitoring power draw and overclocking?

as decent as vertcoin is, ethereum seems more profitable and less toasty

331  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: What are you mining these days? on: July 25, 2016, 04:14:43 PM
I have mining Etherium, this is very simple, for RoI more than 8 months (2 months again I have RoI). for others mining like DOGE and Dash my stop, because not profit again

I also mine some Ethereum. But if you want to invest to mine it now, the ROI is much longer, almost 10 months.

that ROI ignores the added vlaue of having a high-end GPU (if you are mining wit a gaming rig), and the resale value.  I expect that mining for 3 months then reselling could easily breakeven, thoug i plan to keep the card mining much longer

i got into vertcoin this week with a gtx 1070, running about 39.5MH Smiley

felt it may be a better investment play than the RX480. both make similar returns now, but the ethereum difficulty has been rocketing and the currency has had its contract application usability brought into question
333  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: How will this change the world of mining?? GTX 1080 / 1070 on: July 24, 2016, 07:48:30 PM
Picked up the ASUS ROG STRIX GTX 1070 yesterday   ( https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01HEQYQHA )
cost $680CAD ($520USD) after taxes where i bought it

gorgeous card, fairly simple install (its about 3" longer than the r9-270x i had hooked up prior) with a few reboots to get gpu-tweak and the drivers in full form.

nicehash benchmarks are similar to those found online, but lyra2rev2 / vertcoin is clearly the ideal algorithm:

OC mode (default values from asus): ~36.5 MH
Custom mode (+135 core, +432 mem, +2% voltage, +10% power target): ~38.6 MH

via nicehash it is due to produce about $2.90USD/day (directly mining VTC might reward 5% better), or about $3CAD/day with power costs deducted.

If i were to resell the card in about 6months, id expect around $350-400CAD for it, and 6 months could net me >$500CAD if the difficulty and VTC/USD stay consistent. Thats about $200 (30%) return within half a year, and theres a good chance this card will hold value and mining potential a lot longer due to the die size.


right now the plan is to play around with it for a few days, and then potentially buy some more for the dedicated mining rig im building (waiting on the frame/cpu still). however, I might just buy a second card to SLI in the current rig, and wait for custom-cooler RX-480 designs to be available for my dedicated rig.


of note - there's been a lot of discussion about the RX-480 drawing excessive power from the PCIE slot (and software updates made to correct the issue), its likely the strix has the same concerns since it only has a single 8pin power connection. has anyone looked into or experienced issues with this on the GTX 1070?

it should do 40MH easily on lyra without touching anything and 41 with some oc, in my case it auto boost to 2GH without oc

its the primary card, so maybe its losing a bit of headroom to windows? i havent played with OC much, pushed a bit harder and got to 39MH though.

edit: Custom mode #2 (+223 core, +660 mem, +8% voltage, +12% power target): 40.05 MH
334  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: How will this change the world of mining?? GTX 1080 / 1070 on: July 24, 2016, 07:47:31 PM
AMD tried to desperately fit [the rx480] card with a 6PIN for marketing purposes.

silly IMO - almost every decent PSU (and if youre buying the rx480, you have one) has 6+2 connectors. shouldve made it an 8pin socket with the ability to run on just 6

anyone know if the coolers can be re-used in a desktop? I assume they lack the correct sized bracket for intel boards?

The H97 Anniversary is popular for being the successor for the H81 BTC PRO, but there are quite a few other contenders.

like? i would like to see a good successor to the h81 that has the ability to install a m2, so we remove some useless cables

also it would be good if there was a successor on 1151 socket and not only 1150 socket

4 cards without risers is possible, but a blower-style card is pretty much mandatory

Its impossible to tell what a GPU will be worth after ETH goes POS.

During the Litecoin crash, there were $400 GPUS going for $150 a few months later.

All these Neoscrypt/Vertcoin will get murdered once 250,000 GPUS from ETH start hammering those coins.

Even these $500 Nvidia cards will suffer also. When ETH goes POS your 1070/1080 will NOT be selling for 80% retail on eBay.

Gamers will rather buy 2x 480 and crossfire then buy one 1080.

If you want proof look at the difficulty charts for SIA and LBRY for the last few days. As soon as those coins were profitable it took mere hours for them to match the profitability of ETH. This is an example of what will happen when ETH is no longer profitable to mine. Miners are crazy greedy and switch algos like crazy to maximize profits.

The only coins you should be concentrating on are

1) Bitcoins - Buy some cheap S7 and undervolt

2) Etherium - Until it goes POS

3) Litecoin/Scrypt - ASIC very expensive

4) X11 - ASIC very expensive also.


the interesting thing is that nvidia  excels in most other altcoins, particularly vertcoin as i understand. so a mass migration of AMD hardware might not have *as huge* an effect, and could help sustain the resale on nvidia cards if they are better for the next major gpu-coin

Id expect 75% resale price within 3months (enough time to mine ~30% of card cost), and 50% after a year (enough time to mine full card cost) And at ~23MH/120w ethereum in linux (windows support in the works as i understand) its at least competitive wit the rx480 on ethereum mining
339  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: What are you mining these days? on: July 21, 2016, 07:24:19 PM
vertcoin seems promising for nvidia gpus, and the VTC price looks due for a rally (it barely twitced during the ethereum/alt rally back in janruary)

GTX 1070 ($500) appears to be capable of making $3/day mining vertcoin, and the difficulty has been fairly stable for months in that currency. seems reasonable to think you could mine back the cost of the GPU witin a year, and still have a $300+ resale value as its the most recent Nvidia seies. IMO a 50% profit for a year of mining, using high-value cards, seems better tan piling in the $300 RX480s on an algorithm with a difficulty spiraling out of control

i would say $400 resell value, those thing are brand new, they will not tank at all in value for at least 6 months, and surely not below $400 in one year, that is their price target after all

so you practically need to roi on $100, which is a joke

resale value is never >75% BNIB price, realistically closer to 50%.  but still reasonable ROI within a year, on a card that could run 2+ years easily
