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 officer pulled what looked like a pack of Gum or disposable lighter out of the dead girls sock after making a comment about keeping money in your sock. he held it up and said "Bitcoin" then asked his Robot sidekick to read how much was in it. This is suppowsed to be like 2088. I think he might have said something about it being untracable.

Bitcoin was just mentioned on the TV show Almost Human. They just mentioned it in the course of the show progression.

I can see reasons for them not doing this. One would be that they probably don't know. When the pools are looking for a block, they are, I believe, looking at many differnt combinations of transactions at the same time across their supporting miners. Another, they don't know what they will use next until they see what was used by the successfully found blocks.
These things are done by computers, there isn't some pool operater sitting there deciding which one to use.

Try bgminer and cgminer (just to see if it works)
There may be a conflict since you're using an ASIC
The blade has it's own integrated mining software, so it's not possible to slave the ASICs with other software. There shouldn't be a problem, as the blade uses the getwork protocol used by bitcoind I'm about to give up for the night. At least I have it set up through a stratum mining proxy for now hashing on a pool. Blades maybe(are) too fast for bitcoind to keep up with. try putting a proxy between the blades and bitcoind. |

Yes, Bitcoins can be destroyed. The release of a world wide Electro-Magtnetic Pulse could destroy them all, but bitcoin would be the least of our worries. |

Can anyone answer me this?
On BFG miner at the end of each accepted share it says "Diff 11/2" or "Diff 2/2" etc, the second number is always two but the first number changes every time. I guess it is something to do with the difficulty but not sure what?
The first number is the difficulty of the share that you found and are sending back. the second number is the difficulty that the miner is set to by the pool, the not less than difficulty. the first number will always be >= the second number. It is the same as CGminer. |

I also saw that ghash.io pool size. Does make you wonder, 0 fees and growing at a quick rate. If you are getting rewarded the same amount, is it loyalty that people stick around? Just trying to understand, as we all hate fees. I also don't know how a pool operator makes money. Are the pool fees how The Guild makes money? If yes, then how the heck the other 0 fee pools keep servers going with no fees? Scratching my head.
Lower performance, less support, less time spent upgrading and maintaining servers (both frontend and backend). Ghash.io's stability is abysmal by any reasonable standard. The only reason they're so big is more than 50% of their speed is a private farm of ASICs since they're acquiring them basically at cost from BitFury. The only reason why I brought it up was from my previous post that no one answered. Maybe I'll just ask it again here. If my hash rate according to my miner and cgminer us a 560Gh/s average, why does BTC Guild report back my speeds at 529-580 inconsistently? As I said before I'm sure it is something I can check, I just don't know how. All my error rates are low and cgminer itself tells me I'm good. Is it a lag thing between my setup here? Because I haven't been able to get consistent rates, that's why I was going to try another pool to see what happens. But I really hate touching or changing things around just for testing. Thanks What you are seeing is called Variance. As your difficulty goes up it gets harder to find a share. Luck is also involved, so although you may be hashing at a regular rate, the frequencey that you find shares varies. The pool determines your hashrate based on shares returned. If you get lucky and find a bunch of shares quickly it thinks you have a higher hashrate. if your get unlucky and find shares slower it thinks you have a lower hashrate. You should just check that your hashrate is close to your average. |

pool hash rate is dropping, was close to 500TH/s now 430TH/s, also experienced some connection problems. Are we under DDOS attack again or is there something to be fixed/tweaked on our servers?
People just move their miners around. |

have we figured out how to turn these off without trashing the memory card?  |

Has anyone else noticed Slush showing a lower hashrate shown than their miner is showing? I seem to have lost about 5 to 10Gh in the last few days or so, yet nothing shows different at my end? For weeks it's been solid and within a couple of GH.
+1 +1 It depends on when you look at it. For example, currently, 29 minutes into a round i'm showing low on some workers. An hour of two in and it will look fine for me. If you start in the middle of a round it won't look right until the next round. |

I thought that this was a post about the old DEC Operating System. heh.  VAX? You young pups don't know how good you have it. Why, I remember using a PDP-11. Uphill both ways. 6 feet of snow in the middle of summer. Actually, my first DEC was a PDP 10. I remember both mounting Tapes and putting a stack of disks in drive. |

OP, The only thing more wasteful than BTC are these post about making it do something useful or benevolent that pop up once a month. If you truely believe that this is desireable then go spend your time and money making it happen. If you don't know how to do that, then assume that the hundreds of others that have posted the same thing as you did looked into it and couldn't come up with away.

Good evening,
It *is* on your end, otherwise I'd have an inbox with a couple hundred emails and a pool with a ton of speed missing. My only guess is your system doesn't like the redirect DNS, since you're connecting to the verification server, it's sending you the redirect, and then 1 second later it's complaining about not responding with the old pool URL in there.
Try connecting directly to the redirection server?
Still shows dead. Even tried 198.245.63.145 and it will connect then drop. Changed my dns to google and still the same. My last share was 20 hours ago, so it happened last night and I can't get for the life of me try to get it to connect. 198.245.63.145 is the verification server. You're only on that server for the very first submission. Set your miner to connect to the URL it's redirecting you to instead and see if that fixes it. You're talk about "stratum-lb-usa48.btcguild.com:3333", tried it, same result connect then dead. Are you sure you're using the right worker name? Not using a '.' instead of a '_'? or something like that. There is absolutely nothing wrong on the servers (~24,000 connected users). Nothing has changed in weeks either. Maybe you should have them try one of the private servers? just a thought. |

The 10 v1.2 H-cards I bought Monday night shipped today from WA.
as in yesterday? i bought one on the 8th and have heard nothing other than an e-mail confirming purchase. Well I heard from Yvonne and Dave and things are getting straightened out. |

I just noticed that one of my miners found two more blocks. That is three total for me now. Fortunately i understand that if i had been solo i would most likely have found none. it is all luck.  |

I am having a problem adding my BTC-E namecoin address into my NMC payout field in the settings menus.
When I add the address in, and click "Change" it comes back with this error: "There wallet address you entered was not a valid Bitcoin address. Please try again."
And it will not change.
Any suggestions?
I don't want to insult you but I did the same thing, copied the wrong address, could always generate a new nmc address on btc-e and try that. Not insulting at all. I have triple checked that I am using the NMC field in BTC-E. I also triple checked that I am copying the correct address. However, I cannot generate a new address because I have never used this address. This is exactly what it says: Your address for deposit NMC: N6bU35BJdKxhD3ctU5FC7rtWRVLyzieMyy If I copy and paste that exactly into BTC Guild namecoin field it errors out. be sure that you aren't including a space at the end or a Ret. |

So that the BTC miner can forever mine?
Space vehicles wear out too. nothing can run forever. |
