CYPER is not using btcguild. He's just being a troll.
I've heard he's a big Deepbit fan. I think he is just pushing his post numbers so people will see "Hero" and think that he knows what he is talking about.  |

stop feeding the troll. Imagine if all 25 - 30 thousand active accounts demanded the same level of servie. heh.  |

send an email to support@btcguild.com with your username/ emaill address and as much info as you can. That's the best way to get answers to any account issues. i send 2 email since 24h but never answer Some people have lives... Do you think these people earn enough money to be able to afford to pay some other people to offer better support? um... no. |

Well, you see, there is this Stork Avatar that...

difficulty is based on the rate new blocks are discovered. If enough people stop mining so that it takes longer than 10 minutes on average to find blocks, then yes, difficulty will go down.

As soon as I saw the blonde girl I was like 100% booth babe. If she had 0.00000001 BTC I would be surprised.
I wish the Indian girl talked ;(
You'd think they could get better booth babes though. yeah I also wasn't very "wow'ed" by that blonde It is hard to get smart tech savvy guys or even men in the "industry" to say something intelligent about BTC. I would not be too hard on her. She (1) doesn't know her function (or she hadn't heard the word PR before  )), (2) tries to reapeat after someone and fails .... twice and (3) doesn't know whether she's with the company whose name is on her shirt and whose stand is right behind her. Yeah I'm passing, but have fun anyway  TL;DR ok, am i the only one that suspects that the Blonde wasn't a booth babe, but rather the daughter of the guy who was prompting her? She was much too shy and kept looking to him for support to be anything else. |

Why is it that I make 10-20% more on SHORTER rounds?
because somebody else makes less. |

Wondering if this is normal...
Anyone else have slightly lower reported hash rate on some workers? Or maybe just ones running through stratum proxy?
For example, one of my blades is isolated as it's own worker, through the blade UI it says 99.7% efficiency and 10.7gh/s, but on my pool account view (ie, Slush Website) the worker is reporting 9.7gh/s.
Maybe worth mentioning, I have 8 other blades all on one worker account, sharing the same proxy, which also might be seeing the same reporting variance. I am going to split them all into separate workers later on to get a batter idea how each blade is performing.
Also, the one right now that is isolated will sometimes say "last share tome: 1 minute" on Slush account view, which makes me think it gets stuck waiting in line behind the worker with 8 blades on the same proxy.
What you are seeing is pretty normal. It is because the pool bases hashrate on work returned and can be affected by variance. also, if you start in the middle of a round you'll see off kilter reporting. |

Old-gen stuff would be on V1 and V2 m-boards at this point. The photos show what appears to be a new generation of PCIe card with exposed metal for thermal dissipation on the back. I just think it makes them more money to sell rather than deploy at the moment. That makes 3 different versions of PCIe cards that I am aware of. The somewhat problematic ones with the grey-metallic coil pack, the pulse coil ones, and now this.
I would be tempted in a halfy for $2000 in January. Or, may be a quarter with some returned cards put in slot 2. But, speaking of old stuff hitting the market, has anyone else noticed the sudden drop off in network hash-rate after China took a squat over the market?
Drop in network hashrate? I'm seeing close to 10 Ph/s. not seeingt any real drop. |

So, now it's time for you to design board with parallel/serial connection of chips PowerMatrix We did that already. It's called X-HASH:) intron and how did that work? |

Mining doesn't use a lot of bandwidth.
They make load balancing routers that will split your load between multiple internet connections.

I'm not sure how big your pools is, but depending on your hashrate it could take years to find blocks. As for orphans, You need a fast connection to the Bitcoin P2P network. Orphans occur when someone gets their competing block built on before you do. See if you can find some way to connect to the other pools.
Also, there has been an increase in the number of orphans lately, this is being attributed to ghash.io having such a large pool and poor connetions to the network.

Thanks... What I have done is ran Ghash.io for 24 hours, then btcguild, and I have 3 more picked out that I am going to run each for 24 hours to see the return. so far I am on the 3rd pool and ghash.io has yeilded the highest return but shows the highest number of stales and rejects.
I read through the pool threads but my head is spinning... do you have a recommendation on what pools are decent?
24 hours isn't really a good sample. Luck can have too much of an impact. The pools all run pretty much the same over all. Find one where you like the interface and is easiest for you to understand. Personally, I use Slush & BTCguild. |

This design uses 12V to power the chips directly. Other designs, such as the H-CARD have an on-board 12V -> 0.8V power regulator with 30-50Amp capability.
In both cases, you need a 12V supply, but for our new board, you avoid the additional cost of the 0.8V regulator.
Oh, so the cost savings is in the parts list, not the actual power supply. The only reason i asked is that i'm getting tired of miners requiring ATX power supplies. Unless you get a modular one you have to deal with a bunch of unneeded cables. also they take up more room than a power brick. Unless you use some sort of case to put your miner in, your work space can become quite messy/unwieldy. This is one of the reasons i won't buy ASICminer Cubes, 1-2 Cubes per powersupply can make for a lot of power supplies laying around. I'm a Hobbyist. |

Ok, so the selling point on these isn't so much the hashrate as the lower cost of the power supply? You are losing me there. can you give an example of a typical power supply used and a lower cost alternative? I'm not sure what we are talking about.

You're only supporting if you have port 8333 open so others can contact you. Otherwise you're just leaching.
This I did not know... You didn't know it because it's not true. It makes absolutely no difference whether you're connecting to someone else or someone else is connecting to you; once a connection is established by either peer, both are able to send and receive data to each other, regardless of who initiated it. I kind of thought that this might be the case. |

Order placed, used credit card. Once again, i got an email confirmation but it didn't show up in my order history.

It is set in 2048. Only about 0.05 BTC reward per block by then Where is it written that fractional coins will be mined. I see people say this, but it is not my understanding of the plan for Bitcoin or how it is supposed to work. The network only works on satoshis (1E-8 or 0.00000001 BTC). The block reward began as 5,000,000,000 satoshis (50 BTC) and it will be halved every 210,000 blocks (~4 years) until it reaches 1 satoshi and then go it goes to zero. https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Controlled_supplyThere is nothing special about a "whole Bitcoin" everything on the network is recorded in integers as satoshis. Oh, cool, i was remembering wrong. confused satoshis and BTCs. I had to read your reply twice before i got it right. thanks.  |

Is average hash rate over past 10 rounds not updating correctly? Mine isn't adding up. Rewards are around .007 per round, pushing 130ghs but 10 round average says 100.
Edit:looking back it might be because my new equipment was being warmed up during a few long rounds... Guess I'll wait and see a bit longer before I mess with anything.
don't try and check the math, it will only make you crazy. If after a few days things don't make sense then question it. less than a day or two is too short term to get any accuracy. |
