Support seems high for 2x ATM, a little pool luck and we could be at 85 and a few more small pools would possibly get us to 90. At this point I'm glad for any sort of consensus, though I prefer just Segwit and no 2MB.

Someone here was selling these miners for around 3500 each and sold all of them if I am not mistaken. That price seems way too low. You're also a newbie with no trust, which makes it an unattractive deal for most people.

It's just a cash grab for the "developers". Bounties are poorly designed in most all cases as previously stated, if I remember correctly in the Iconomi ICO one published article about the ICO was paid around .7BTC in tokens, leading to the crash of a lifetime.

I started actively using DOGE (first crypto I used often) in November 2014, just a couple months too late. It was a shame, I made a shit ton of wallets back then. I could've had a couple hundred clams today if it weren't for my slowness. I do use Byteball now but it seems to not really be used a lot except for people hunting down the distributions.

Depends if the devs decide the project is actually worth working on or if they will just completely ignore it and essentially take your money and run. As the second guy said, it's gambling. Either profit or bust, something extremely risky. There have been successful crowdsales including Ethereum but that was a long time ago and the times are different nowadays.

PSU ratio depends on the specific PSU, as some do better at higher wattages and some lower wattages for best efficiency. We'd need the specific model to have an idea, but generally around 80 is a good spot. Going near max is ok as most PSUs are 80+ certified and will stay above that for the most part.

If you can stand the noise. Running an S7 in my house makes the slightly high pitched sound of fans go everywhere. There are quieter miners like the R4 for BTC but bigger miners like the S9 give the biggest bang for the buck. GPU mining is nice and silent though, most of the time.

I understand the mempool has started confirming no fee txs, but it appears it's filling up somewhat again as I tried this with a 110-sat/byte transaction and it hasn't confirmed for more than six hours. Can't wait till SW so fees aren't so high, they are ok but lower is always good.

holybitcoin.com - I think i read some favorable posts on another thread. site seems legit, but they just sell out of everything.
I believe they are the J4bberwock salesperson in the US, so Legit.
Can you ad me as well: bitcoinpsu.com
I hate to overwhelm you with questions; Just trying to compensate for my ignorance. I promise this'll be my last one... for a while.. What exactly is J4bberwock? Do they make power supplies or something? I checked out the Holy Board section on his site, but there are very few details there. He makes breakout boards for server power supplies and I also think he makes cables for them. He's a forum member and you might be able to contact him for direct pricing. |

I would do this but it seems I'm one of the unlucky people that bought a no supported card. In fact, mine is one of the least popular 4GB models and runs hotter than I'd like it to run (Visiontek 'OC edition').

Thanks guys, so for the long run it matters... I would be not that smart to save 40€/card to get 3gb versions.
If you're only looking for short term use, then 4GB is just fine as you can sell them later for a decent price. Plus, you can mine other coins after the DAG exceeds 3GB like XMR or Zcash. I prefer to save but it's up to you. |

There's no wrong choice, take other people's advice and mix it with your own to create something better. I personally prefer to hold as long as possible but i also spend sometimes. Feels good to know your profit is real and tangible. Just make sure you buy something you will be happy with even if the price rises to 5000 per coin or beyond and you will be fine.

Buying noname brand PSUs has always been a bad thing and will always be a bad thing until someone comes up with proof the PSU works. Stick with server PSUs with BBS and trusted brandnames for PSUs. A bad one could mean a dead miner.

Any ideas why the exchanges are speculating a drop to 1723 in the short term? http://www.bitcoinforecast.comAlthough this is not always correct, bitstamp nailed the most recent drop within a few bucks. There could be some indicators of a correction, it's definitely possible that we aren't out of the danger zone yet. I somewhat agree with their long-term price speculation but I feel like it could go either way at this point. |

Each port supports 2.1A,should be sufficient for a small overclock on the chip. Should work with 4 sticks. If each port is also 5V then the power out is around 10W, check the 2pac thread for an OC chart. |

It will have temp issues if it is not well designed. Haven't heard of the specific model yet, but generally mini cards run louder and hotter than their regular size counterparts. Other than that, unless you are exceptionally unlucky with the card, mining performance will likely be around what you mentioned.

There's no way a 4.5 T miner is only using 880 watts. It's not even close to the S7 for comparison. Spondoolies makes good products but the admin panel is incorrect. 220V may save a little bit of power but it usually isn't a huge amount like you just mentioned. Real power consumption is around 3kw.

So that is the kind of thought that I have but to do that effectively i would need to put a hole in the exterior wall in the back of that space....I hesitate to start putting holes int he house without being %100 sure that it will work. So far nothing has moved enough air that I am convinced even that will be adequate to cool the rigs. Maybe ambient here is just too hot. What is your ambient temperature? Push pull is more effective than all intake, you'd need more fans in to lower the temps whereas a fan or two out may do the job. If ambient is too high then it's still going to run hot. I did it in my garage with Bitcoin miners and it worked just fine. |

I have some virtually new ones worth putting on ebay as I am in the UK,what would they bring
30-40 USD each would be fair considering the hashrate. I don't know the conversion to GBP though, they may be going for more right now but considering the exceptionally slow ROI you would get on these it wouldn't be a lot. |

Loving the LTC rally! Its the only other coin I hold and have done since $1.  Only Bitcoin here for me, and that was starting at 300. I'm happy with what I've got, not a gambly person. I used to hold LTC but sold for Bitcoin a while back in 2015. Not a decision I regret at all, considering what's happened recently. |
