New plan. Batch 2 heatsinks will now be pink.
Batch 2 is the second half of the 1000 run. Heatsinks and PCBs were purchased in quantity for the entire 1000 run. Heatsink color choice for the entire 1000 run was deliberate. I will not offer different colors because there is only one color heatsink that I have and only one color heatsink that I will be installing on any of the sticks in this 1000 run. Maybe I'll consider changing it up if we do a new Compac version with a new chip, but every BM1384 production-version Compac that I ship will have the green heatsink. The decision was made six months ago and the heatsinks were purchased two months ago and I'm not changing it now.
Which is to say, yes I have a deliberate color choice specifically for Batch 2 and it is the same as for Batch 1.
Aw, you killed our fun, we're going to bicker over the colours, then you could of piped up saying "I Haz perfect colour! This!" and show the original! At least hes trying to redeem himself xD There's probably some thermal-ok paint you could slap on the heatsink if you *really* wanted to go with wavy shades ofpink/fushia?  Hmm that sound tasty. I think i'd use a pic of that as Avatar for a while. Also; http://runescape.wikia.com/wiki/Goblin_Diplomacy |

Hmm, I don't fully understand the power requirements. I'm currently running this USB hub. http://www.oricoonline.us/goods.php?id=493712V 3A Does this mean I can run 4 sticks drawing 0.75A safely, or 2 sticks @ 1.5A each? What mhz would that be? TLDR: The power supply can supply it, not sure if the supply is designed for 100% load 24/7, probably not. I don't know. But it doesn't mean that the circuit of the hub can support the load. Hence the lengthy discussion in the other thread. Sidehack can probably tell you what mhz that would be, but you can try the math yourself depending on the power you want to push in one stick; I think its 0.055*Freq = GH at 0.3 J/GH(?) unless you change volt, it should be accurate i think. You'll need to grab a multimeter or some usb reader and read that thread on how to do it. The thread there also has a link to a good usb current reader. |

No its a extremely huge problem. People don't know *which* fork will be validated later on, the transaction from the destroyed fork will be invalidated, and will never get confirmed in the chain that survive.
What will everyone do if that happen? They will dump it down to 10 cents in one hour.
why not? as i said they are already signed and miners can just pick them up No they can't. For example block X get mined on fork #1, it include XYZ transaction, that fund then get used later on, its on block X2. Meanwhile the same happen on Fork #2, the same block has been found by someone else and fund are already moved are spent on fork #2 and it include different transaction. All those transaction can't be validated since the funds cannot be used twice. And destroyed transaction aren't returned to the mempool to be retried. Instead the block chain repair itself and after the forks return to one chain, every fund that was spent on the other (destroyed) chain will be back to where it was when the fork happened. Which means no one can put FIAT value on it since they don't know if the transaction done at the time will be validated. that is only true if some party tries an malicous doublespent. in that case you are right. but you should not assume that all bitcoin users are thieves. in case of a large split exchanges and other services will find ways to detect that (which probably means way longer conf-times on both chains than we are used to atm) edit: btw this assumes that someone is able to broadcast a tx in both forks. if there is an internet connection between two forks there will be no fork at all No... you don't understand; Both fork will find the same blocks for a while, there's nothing to rebroadcast, you can't rebroadcast that you actually own all those BTC, because you just dont. Only the chain that survive will decide who really own those blocks, which means from the destroyed chain, every blocks found, its fund and its and transaction included in and after those blocks will be completely invalidated and its completely impossible to rebroadcast those transactions, since the owner of those blocks will have changed; The people people that found blocks and did transaction after the fork will see all of their actions reversed. You can't have a block reward twice, once for each fork. Its just not.You can have the wallet rebroadcast all the transaction and IF they had the fund before the fork, then sure they can then be accepted but that doesn't matter because at that point BTC will have crashed to nothingness because of the primary effect. Oh. You are talking about coinbase transactions. Yes, coinbase transactions and any transactions spending them will be invalidated and thus will not be in the new post fork chain. However, in order for those coinbase to be even spendable, the blockchain needs to be at least 100 blocks long since the fork. No o.O. ALL transaction regarding the funds from the blocks after the fork will be invalidated. The destroyed fork will have all those transaction simply not exist in the final block chain. I'm not talking about the nitpicky stuff. Or special circumstance. You just can't have two people both get the 25 BTC+TXfee per block. The end. I don't know if i'm not explaining what i'm trying to say or something? Both fork will find the same blocks #, but there can only be one instance in the end. And whoever is in the destroyed fork will have no BTC from them after the merge. This also include the tx fee, the transaction, everything. |

As per title, i am looking for steam wallet fund to buy at half off~ ideally from someone trusted to avoid escrow hassle. Unless you go first. Right now i just want a 10$~ game but i can pickup more with the market trick.
Reply, PM, whichever.

No. Color choice is deliberate.
And you have no deliberate color choice specifically for the Sidehack stick Batch 2? |

Best Share 2155592341 So far my highest yet  Been pointing miners (S1/Sidehack) at solo.ck for a week now, Best shares is 8m and 3m. I'm pretty damn far from having solved a block, this is a lottery i'm not likely to win, damn. Hopefully someone else in the sidehack pool club will do better than me lol. |

I have no need to put the S5 controller work with S7 I get 2 free S7 controller each of the three S7. And as it turned out of tests, S7 controller works with 8 S5 blades.  Do you have any experience running 4 stock fan on a single S5 BBB/Base plate? I'm thinking of making a 2x S5 and i'm worried 4 Stock fan running at full speed might burn the BBB if it can't support that much power? Your input would be appreciated. |

Can this affect the network in any way?
Most of the hashrate is in china. If china were to someone block the miners from connecting to the network, that could be disastrous since we would be losing over half of the hashrate How is losing hash rate "disastrous"? It wouldn't be nice but it would be very far from disastrous. That much hash rate overnight would crash the block chain, people would mass dump, it would take a long time to recover, if ever. Its obligatory because if they would reconnected, the two BTC fork would crash and the lesser would get destroyed. Basically if that much hashrate split, BTC is done. if bitcoin looses half its hashrate that means 20min blocks: not too bad a bigger problem with a fork and the merge afterwards are "lost" transactions. but they are already signed and miners will pick them up. this leaves the potential for doublespends though: which is a problem. if miners are clever they can mitigate that risk by ignoring all transactions which spent outputs already spent in the losing fork No its a extremely huge problem. People don't know *which* fork will be validated later on, the transaction from the destroyed fork will be invalidated, and will never get confirmed in the chain that survive.

I knew that they looked the same but for those of us who only have pictures was interested if they were actually the same and that you would be able to use an S5 BBB with a S5 baseplate with an S7 Hash Board? I am also assuming that the S7 software will become available at some point and that an upgrade for the S5 would be posible?
Rich
If you look at the image, it will not work very well with S7 software. Lower hashrate and 6 phantom blades.  Click to enlargeWould it not be possible to just save the json config with the 600 freq? I know the drop down menu only let you go to 500 but that list just feed the JSON its value. I don't see any reason whatsoever why cgminer couldn't handle the 600 freq if its manually fed that value. If for some odd reason you need specific cgminer to do 600mhz, then you just need to replace the cgminer using shh. |

If we get a 4Th upgrade for our S1/S3/S5 chassis, then what do we do with the old boards?
You scrap them. Not S5's though, those are still good until S9 or such. The S3's board are still of interest for people, i would even take a whole S3 myself. The S1, you could run them at super low clock with nofan at 0.9J/GH. Thats what i'll do during this winter. I will make a stack of them, maybe with that plastic egg crate thing and use it as a heater for my room. |

I don't think limiting to one per person is the goal. After a month it should be based on GH by Compac's. So if someone OC's to 16 gh it is rightfully counted as more then one at 8gh. Also does not limit the amount of compacs one can.
That's the way I think it should be, too. Your contribution to the club hash via compac sticks is your share of the block reward should we ever happen to solve one. I had to steal one of my sticks back, so I'm down to 1 stick @ 125 freq again. Okay but if we do that we'll easily have over 100 shares and maybe significantly more and then in the tiny chance we get a block, its mostly the same few person that will get all the payout and people with only a stick or 3 won't get much, so i wouldn't really see the point since the way you two are suggesting, it'd be just like a normal pool and its pointless with units with so little hashrate. Even if we do find a block in that case it would be less share for me than if i just put my donation miner in a pool. This would lose any excitement imo. |

I had excluded some of your posts. I didn't expect that. If my post quality ever get too low, please tell me so i can permanently rectify it. But considering your reply the last time i'm guessing that is not the issue with my payout?; I did not receive my payment at all this morning, perhaps the bot is running late? Is anyone else have their payout delayed today?  I'm surprised no one replied to this yet, am i the only user affected? Since a partial payout last week, my post limit (100) did not update and now this week i simply did not receive my payout and the bot is stuck in the past;  I just checked the bot again and suddenly i got my payout. I didn't get the 0.014 BTC missing from last week, but i got got 110 posts paid for a 10 day run, so a fair portion of what i posted over 10 days. Thanks for keeping this campaign going! The posts that were not paid should (if they haven't already) be paid soon! Not in a big rush to receive the missing 0.014BTC, but would be good to have at some point ^_^" I didn't exclude any of your posts . I've sent 0.02 BTC to your Bit-X address, sorry about the delay. https://blockchain.info/tx-index/6e1cc5c2409e2fc590dbe06ab06102b206869ab2615e0a2727c06fa00840dbc8No problem, thanks for the few extra post paid. Be careful of how generous you are to me, if you continue that way i'll start asking for a raise for my posts I really hope this campaign will continue for a long time! |

China and USA are on top, with number of highest percentage of miners and users
What numbers are you using to say that USA is on top? Its a pretty bad place to make mega datacenter so they don't have that much there. The electricity there is expensive. And if you look at the pool data, there's not that much pointed outside Asia and Europe. |

Can this affect the network in any way?
You should be pretty sure of the fact that China is in control of more than 51% of the hash power(ofc the total power is distributed among different people). Those people create the hardware and use it for themselves. And in some parts electricity is cheap too. So you,re saying that, "China" is actually in control of all the China pool, private mine and subcontractor, including Bitmain? Because even though that there is at least 40%~ of the hashrate pointed in the hand of people in China, the control of that hashrate is segregated. You make it sound like they're setup for a 51% attack while its absolutely not the case. |

I didn't expect that, it wouldn't be possible outright based on what mine looked like. I mean the S5 BBB only has 4 slots for cables. Did you solder more in? Could be interesting personally to make a 3xS5.
S5+ controller.  Click to enlargeWhat is What is BeagleBone Black? (BBB) http://beagleboard.org/BLACKOh right, for some reason i thought you meant a BBB with a S5 control board/plate etc. I hadn't realized that "base plate" was the thing the BBB socket in to control everything, my bad. |

Site Maintenance, should be up online as of now!
It is and the AntRouter is listed. It says 10 units limit and the price is very low, i would of liked to get one unit and test it but i'm guessing they instantly sold out. I noticed after one minute so they must of gone fast. |

That put my 2xS5 project to shame. So thats with a S5+ controller? I would very much like detailed pictures of this, any thoughts on starting a thread and showing off everything?
For the long cable, i'm still waiting on Jabberwock to get back to my PM, i will definitively need a couple. If you know another source, i'd be interested to know.
No. It is S5 BBB with S5+ software an S7 (not S5+) base plate with 9 long data cables. This is only temporary for testing, so more pictures did not come. It consists of 2 x double size S5 and another half of S5. I do not know yet, what data cable slot should left free, to work with only 8x S5 blade. Cables are from Jabberwock. Another option is soldering them longer by itself. I didn't expect that, it wouldn't be possible outright based on what mine looked like. I mean the S5 BBB only has 4 slots for cables. Did you solder more in? Could be interesting personally to make a 3xS5. |
