it's my first time mining for real.  I've tinkered on a pc before but that's not real is it?

At least you found the best miner out right now... hands down nothing hashing right now is better than these quality and efficiency wise.

this might be a cgminer config issue but can anyone help me with this error?
"HFA : OP_USB_INIT failed! Operation status 20 (regulator programming error)
edit:using cgminer 4.3.4

Now I get this one: "OP_USB_INIT: Tossing packet, valid but unexpected type 144"

Can someone point me in a direction?  I'm lost.

I had a similar error, but I cant remember if it was the exact same. My issue was a missing WinUSB driver. I installed the missing driver using zadig (http://zadig.akeo.ie/), and haven't had any issues since.

I'm okay now, it wasn't clear to me that power was required on all four plugs.  (at least it is in my case)  USB errors are for the most part gone.

My cooler has yet to arrive and I'm reaching thermal overload rather quickly even with "--hfa-hash-clock 100".
I'm assuming this is normal behavior without a cooler on board.  I'm going to see how much hashing I can achieve with my cpu air cooler resting on the die with the fan on it.  

WOW... before you blow yours up... just send it to me... 4 pin... then not using all 4 PCIe plugs... and running it without a cooler? You're gonna break this thing if you don't just wait for your gear... that it has not died already is a testament to Dr Teal + teams excellent work.

Tell me about it.  But in my defense, there is absolutely no instructions available for this unit on peppermintmining.com.  I had to figure everything out by other means and am surely lacking information.

Edit: I was told that I wouldn't be able to blow it up without a fan since it has thermal protection.  Currently running with a temporary air heat sink at 75MHz with a temperature of 99C.  Is that bad too?

I would say I sympathize (a little) but I followed this and the Chili threads from the start, and the OP shows the board's 4 PCIe connectors, talks about the cooling options and suggestions, the power requirements, and how all 4 power connectors work independently so you could use individual small PSUs with decent single rails if desired.

Well, I don't understand your problem.
technically speaking, the pool (which is more or less probably based on a server software AND a client (aka Wallet)), the exchange website and the wallet that manages deposits/withdrawals are 3 (or rather more) different things.
That the wallet that contains the website's DEM deposits is still online, up to date, AND contains funds is probably pure luck.
Maybe there are more coin clients on coinex still working correctly, but who wants to try out, which ones?
Without maintenance, also DEM will become non-functional in time.

If the breakdown of coinex is really, as many people suggest, a scam scheme, someone overlooked at least this coin-if it is (as I tend to think) just a bundle of coin clients slowly dying of maintenance problems) DEM is probably the only client still running stable on the connected machine, without being offline, not running or being on a forked chain.

When no one is mining on a pool website, this doesn't mean anything for the connected exchange website, nor does it imply that pool and exchange rely on the same clients or even are on the same (virtual) machine.

Pure luck, IMHO, that the connected DEM wallet is running, online, not forked, still connected to the exchange website AND containing coins.

If you have funds on coinex and rather don't believe this and wait for the website to finally die completely instead of taking the hint that you might salvage some value, go ahead, I'm happy I lost only SOME and tried to help other ppl to do the same.

It has been postulated that the DEM hot and exchange wallets are indeed linked to the mining pool outputs... you can trace it on the blockchain. At one point, DEM died here and someone put it back online.

Actually the math says its still only representing ~100TH/s.

Nice thing about the bonus: gives a way to compare our 17.7 TH/s to the bonus amount to estimate overall mine hash.

Sad thing about the bonus: it is completely up to Lab_Rat to pay it and at what amount so it could be LESS than 75% of what is mined on top of our 17.7 TH/s or mathematically figured to make it look like w/e TH/s he feels we should see.

i.e. Bonus coins mined divided by Contractual coins mined = Ratio : (Ratio * 17.7 TH/s) + 17.7 TH/s = Net Hashrate : Net Hashrate divided by .75 = Approximate mine hashrate.

18.5 BTC/5.79241206 BTC   = 3.194
(3.194 X 17.7 TH/s) + 17.7 TH/s = 74.2338 TH/s Net Hashrate
74.2338 TH/s / .75 = 98.9784 TH/s Approximate mine TH/s

See where I am going with this? Numbers do not lie... they are just wrong if all the variables aren't entered. Hashrate is missing or all the coins mined on top of our contractual hash is being paid at far less than 75% since Lab_Rat said we were "North of 100 TH/s" when he responded to that question.

Of course that is all speculation due to lack of info... except I do know CEX had pool issues this week so... that may be a part of it... except that would be reflected in the numbers for contractual as well as bonus so... no telling what is real at this point.
332  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: The Chili – 30+GH/s BFL based Bitcoin Miner Assembly on: June 07, 2014, 09:33:43 PM
I am selling some Chili boards.  They come mounted with accelero twin turbo 2, 3 of them are mounted with accelero mono plus

Have 18 boards available.  Please post your best offers or send me a pm.

I also have bfl gear available. 2 minirigs (500gh/s +-10%) and 9 single sc (60gh/s +-10%).



Thanks

C2k

Sorry to rain on your post... but @ $.10 per kWh and a price of $8 per Chili, you could break even in 45 days or so... but after that 45 days... its a daily negative return.

I will offer you $5 for each Chili for the entire batch shipped at once. $90 + shipping. ~.14 BTC + I will provide a label to ship if you provide weight and dimensions of the box.

Anything more means 100% loss of money for any buyers.

This also goes for the BFL gear too since power consumption is about the same...  you can't profit off these after 45 days or so from now at $.10 per kWh even at $.27 per GH/s. Similar to the Chilis, if you do wish to sell at this rate, I would offer $84 for one of the minirigs and I will provide the label. .13 BTC + shipping label.

I see a lot of user names asking about an exchange but not posting any asks or bids in the forum trading post.  Why is that?  The more bid/asks in the post the better the liquidity of LRM.  Maybe part of the reason LR doesn't think an exchange is a priority is the lack of bids/asks/price movement?  If you're going to complain about no exchange but have no skin in the game right now, it seems a bit hypocritical. Put your contracts/BTC where your mouth is and post some bids/asks.
The exchange thread is nice and all, but the audience is limited and buying and selling is (comparatively) a very slow process (not saying it's possible to do it any quicker, grnbrg).  Even before LR destroyed the value of the shares and invented the BS bonus concept, trading was slow.  A bona fide exchange, or means of exchange such as mastercoin/counterparty/NXT/whatever, would surely bring more liquidity.  I literally can't be bothered to trade using the thread (I have done once), whereas I'd be far more likely to push a button on Havelock. Undecided

Not to mention many believe these contracts are worth way more than what is listed in the thread... so why bother posting at the back of the list?

Well if that's the case, you should be buying more, right?

Nope.

Hey guys, I too snoozed on the 2nd batch, I wanted to get 6 boards, but after plugging the numbers in to the bitcoinwisdom.com calculator I just couldn't get anywhere, all the time coming out in a loss, unless I upped the bitcoin price, but that is not the case at this point, if the price stays at $6xx then I will never even return my investment, even $700 doesn't seem like it would be enough.  How do you guys look at this, if I get 6 boards(~700 Gh/s x6)=4.2 Th/s, power .15 kWh, difficulty inc. - 20%, hardware cost - 875 x 6 = ~$5,250 + 6 PSUs(~120 x 6 = $720) + 6 Cooling systems(~120 x 6 = $720) ---  Total cost = ~$6,690.
I agree that yes it will be very fun to play around with the Habaneros while putting them together and configuring/perfecting them, but at the end of the day or week or month I want to make some money as well.  So I guess what I am not understanding is how would I be able to make my investment back and make some money with the Bitcoin miners such as "The Habanero".

Another difficulty I'm seeing is, of course most people are setting these things up at home, but at 1000 watt a board you could only have a limited amount of these boards set up in the house and even then in different locations of the house(if whoever you live with will even allow these devices in their spaces of the house or a mess of very long power cables running all over the house to the rig station) so that each board uses 1 circuit, so at around 9 boards my circuit breaker wouldn't be able to handle any more.  
How are you guys coping with these electrical limits?
What still keeps you in the Bitcoin mining game with the increasing difficulty?

I was waiting on a post like this... and I have your answer... though you still wont see anything but a minor payoff unless price of BTC goes up.

Basically... if you look at the landscape of the ASIC technology coming out this year... it looks eerily similar to the HD 7 series cards hitting the market before ASICs finally got dropped by Avalon and others. We are sitting at the 28nm line as of right now just awaiting the mass of miners to unleash. Just like when the HD 7 series arrived and all the CPU miners had to move to scrypt, most of the early ASICs will now be in negative returns in respect to electric costs and will be sold off to people who don't care about electric cost or just plain deactivated, leaving swaths of hashrate dying out of the global pool. this means soon, the difficulty increase will begin it's inevitable plateau leaving some small room for miner ROI.

Why is this true? Because the next steps for ASIC efficiency are into 22nm and 14nm territory, which as right now is something only Intel, Nvidia and AMD have really started mass producing (there are others I am sure but the two foundries making them are all used by these vendors). The foundries with this technology already have their calendar full of multi-million or even BILLION USD roll outs for these major vendors. Intel and Nvidia are definitely already pressing 14nm tech... and AMD is moving out of 22nm now and starting to work at the 14nm level. This means there is not a single SHA256d ASIC developer out there that could get production time anytime soon. At BEST, someone will eventually get in the abandoned 22nm line when INTEL, AMD and Nvidia have all moved the majority of their product to the new 14nm on a solid basis.

What does this mean for us miners? It means you will see one more "double down" in ASIC efficiency in the next 18 months which will kill off 65nm and 55nm miners completely. Look at it this way...

1. 65nm BFL chips are turning LESS than 2 cents per day per GH/s at $.10 per kWh at 5-6 J/GH/s
2. 55nm Bitmain chips are turning LESS than 2.5 cents per day per GH/s at $.10 per kWh at 2+ J/GH/s
3. 28nm HF Habaneros are turning LESS than 2.6 cents per day per GH/s ay $.10 per kWh at 1 J/GH/s

Nothing that I have seen (that I believe anyways) has proven to really mine below the 1 J/GH/s mark yet... that can be had by consumers at this point. I won't believe the Monarch figures until someone third party verifies it in their own hands. The odds of us seeing a 22nm product that is double the efficiency of these 28nm products is laughably impossible. Not until 14nm ASICs will we see a double down from these Habaneros and other 28nm miners. The time and funds it is going to take to develop 22nm would almost be for naught except it is going to be the second halving before anyone can say they have a 14nm chip lined up at the foundry.

Put all that together and you should see, by the end of the year, a price increase in BTC, a plateau in difficulty... and people ditching their old gear for 28nm as quickly as the vendors can stock the miners... all of which should enable a Habanero to ROI this year.

If anyone disagrees or has anything to add or clarify on the above... i welcome feedback.

What is that little controller you are using?

Foxconn nta3500.  Discontinued now.  Newegg sometimes runs free memory or ssd.  Good little Linux boxes and will boot from SD.
Interesting. We've been using some Intel NUCs that work great but have some extra stuff that is unnecessary. Trying to find the best controller for the money a step above the Pis & Beagles. If anyone has the answer please share.

Dunno if I can say for sure it will mine... but you should be able to do something with this since it is not locked down (root)

http://www.amazon.com/Tronsmart-CX-919-Rockchip-External-Antenna-Black/dp/B00DQ6UPIW

I have had this thing for like 8+ months now... it travels with me all over the US so I can watch WTF I want when I want in the hotel (I load an SD card full of new movies before hand, and some TV shows I need to catch up on sometimes)and it has yet to let me down. BT with the Remote Tablet app is great... and using an OTG cable gives you a second USB port so you can use a powered hub in one and a mouse/KB combo in the embedded USB. Powered via a Micro USB cable (could also run off your powered hub) and linked to your WiFi, you can use any remote view android app (VNC) and access the screen directly from another tablet or PC.

Hell... I bet you could force this thing to boot a Linux distro and run w/e miner since this is a Cortex quadcore. And if you prefer a monitor... easy cheapo HDMI input monitor to go ont he rack for ease of use.

FYI... I love this GD thing!

339  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] [CFN] ConfessionCoin | Secrets are better shared | Scrypt | LAUNCHED on: June 04, 2014, 11:47:43 PM
I assumed that unlike bitcoin cfn will need people to have the entire blockchain downloaded ?
A spv client wound't make too much sense since the most important data is what's encrypted in the chain , right?

You should make a more detailed explanation about how the coin works to avoid poeple getting the wrong idea like i have probably.

Fair enough.  We have a brief description on the site, but basically here's the flow:

- A user enters a confession on confessioncoin.com and presses confess
- The user is displayed a CFN address and a penance amount
- The site monitors this address and determines when the penance has arrived
- If the penance doesn't arrive in 48 hours, the confession is deleted and never displayed
- If the penance arrives, the confession is:
  1) inserted into the blockchain via a new transaction made, and
  2) displayed on the site with a link to the block that the transaction is stored in

The reason we chose this model is because we are trying to add value with the site, although it introduces centralization.  We're not big fans of centralization, but this isn't life or death here, it's a virtual confessional :-)

The penance discourages users entering spam since it costs CFN (but can't eliminate spam if that's what people choose to spend their CFN on).  The site however can filter as needed.

If you perform a transaction manually, a user can insert any message/confession into the blockchain, however it won't be displayed on our site because it did not use the penance system required to be displayed.  Part of the value add of being displayed is that others can 'like', 'sympathize' (via the 'me too' link) or tip the author (grant absolution).

So in short, there's no need to have the entire blockchain and SPV clients would work just fine.  Does this help clear things up?

So in reality, your site is not parsing the chain to display the confessions... it is capturing them to a database and just submitting them to the chain as an afterwards... does the site even have a check that the confession exists in the chain before it can be displayed, or can one be made on the site and it will show regardless of if you submit it to the chain as a transaction?

Well I spent a good bit of time breaking the rules and testing higher voltages / clockrates and cooling configurations. I am by no means suggesting that anyone attempt to replicate! I seem to get the best performance with the following settings...

Voltage: .995V
Clockrate: 975Mhz
Temps: 94-99
Hashrate: 750 GH/s +/-
Kill-a-watt: 1157

About 60 watts are from some ridiculously powerful fans that I swapped out with the stock fans on a CoolerMaster 240L. I started this machine around 5AM CST and it was running at 750 until this afternoon when it dropped a little. Perhaps that was due to increased ambient temps which were lower overnight, and are in the mid to upper 70s right now. I just took these screen shots a few minutes ago.

More tweaking to come, but pretty optimistic so far.



PICS!!!!

Breakdown of parts, price and where to get them? Also you mentioned a case etc in another post... let us see what you got... I am curious on just how much it would cost to part your setup out including PSU and rPi.
