Bleh its properly connected to the internet, i doubt its a simple overlook. But if your pool infos are correct...
Next step would be troubleshooting to see which part work by replacing stuff till you figured it out by process of elimination.

^^ you guys really think so? Even if they got 200-1000 sample chips, that would make 32.5 TH. So what? Antpool is still @70 PH/s. And afaik other big pools haven't increased their hashrate significantly (well maybe a few smaller ones did).
I wouldn't put aside the probability of Bitmain owning private mines. Keeping them off "the grid" is probably the best way to keep good control over Bitcoin from the miner side. Those mines would give them a lot of leeway on their actions. |

As it appears that XT is inevitable it would be nice get a better understanding of the migration path to XT or effects of staying firm with the core... anyone care to make some rough projections?
Inevitable how? XT isn't happening, so there's not much projections to make. The BIP100 which probably has the most support right now is not likely to come to pass either for quite a while. |

But BIP100 is a good thing to have handy. I doubt the network will get to 80% for BIP100 unless we come to a point where the network is saturated and people lose money somehow. That's probably the only thing that will push people together to get consensus.
As long as people make their money or make more money by staying at 1mB. I don't think the BIP100 or anything else will happen.

but there is no information about releases yet?
They are either building/upgrading their own mine or they have the results from a small batch of test chips which means that it will take 2-3 more months for the real miners. Assuming they released their chip data as soon as they got it, which i highly doubt. They have no incentives to release something new at the moment. The chip data just seemed timed to hit the lesser ASIC maker with "We'll kill you again if you try anything." Really. |

What a thread and People are replying yes BTC will replace.
But i am sure it will never , all we measure the Value of Bitcoin is in $ , then how can we replace $ , assume if it replaces 4 then in what currency we will measure bitcoins? 1 btc= 1m btc x 1000 bits or what?? , in fact there needs something relative through only which we can evaluate the former.
It is because people are confused with what "replace" means. Most government will never let BTC take over their national currency that would destroy them and maybe the country along with it. But will it become usable and maybe more often used than the $ in some town or some other place? Sure. Thats just mainstream adoption. It can happen. |

Gentlemen,
I thank you for your willingness to help me. Yes, i have tried different power supplies with no change. I connected this S5 to the power and LAN connections currently being used by a top performing SP20 and again, it still wont hash. It does seem to act as though its not connected to the internet, but it is and the miner flashes the 'all is well' green led.
This failure was caused by a poor or loose connection of old, well used Molex minifit jr pins in the 6-pin pci-e power connector. One or more of these loose connecting pins causes a heating point, and with the extra current flow from overclocking at 400MHz...
i replaced all the cables on my PSU's with new ones and I check the temperature of the power cables daily by simply feeling them with my hand. They are "cool to the touch" now.
You are welcome to connect via dreamweaver. Do i need to put the S5 in a different location on the lan so you can see it from outside?
locate the diagnostics tab and select the ping option and then the nslookup. paste the results here. The trace would be actually pretty useful since it would show if it even get through the router.  |

I am curious about something. Is mining with no BIP100 or BIP101 designation counted as BIP100 or what? I mine with Slush, and do NOT use the BIP101 port. So who/what am I "voting" for? Is "abstaining" a vote for BIP100, BIP101, or neither?
Abstaining is a 'vote' for neither. It's a 'vote' for the status quo. A 'vote' for BIP100 is also not technically a vote for anything at this time, as BIP100 has not yet been formalized and no code implementing anything is available - Jeff is working on that. It could be seen as "we want change, but BIP101 is not the change we want - BIP100 would have our preference in lieu of something else". The bitcoin-dev mailing list is probably the best place to keep an eye on BIP100 development. Only BIP101 votes that adhere to the BIP101 mechanism (block version number change) are actual votes which - if there are enough miners and users supporting it - would result in an actual change. The pool owners are simply tagging their block "BIP100" in a way that can't cause a fork, simply to show their support for the BIP100. It's not a mechanism that can bring any change. It just mean they're interested in going forward with BIP100, current bitcoin core for now works fine. But they don't want BIP101/XT etc. |

Step 1. Uninstall the Bitcoin XT scam.
Step 2. You're a newbie. You can try to run a full 50gb node if you want, but really you should just download Multibit classic and enjoy easy point and click access to everything while using only 3mb or so of hard drive space.
XT Drama aside, i'd go with that. Then when you're familiar enough, Multibit HD can be a step up if you're managing a fair bit of Bitcoins. |

You know, i double checked my S5 that works and there's not many options to mess around with. If you want i can "Teamviewer (10)" in, its RDP so we'd share your desktop screen, then i can compare the pages to my working S5, but that's pretty much the limit of what i can do. Unless you set some static IP thats conflicting or some simple overlooked setting... I don't really see what can go wrong. Could see which firmware you're running. ^_^" |

I'm impressed @ PlanetCrypto That's a lot more elaborate than how i do it. (I Just spread silent miners in my place, specially S1 with wifi. I think i could do it with S3 too.) But central ASIC heating is pretty neat, if i had a house in the first place, i think i'd try to use a thermometer valve to dump some of the heat strait outside when the farm would be generating too much heat. It is nice to see people who *actually* make the ROI math. And have a *real* hobby out of it. |

There's a blog post where someone figured out that he can compute 0.67 hashes per day with pencil and paper  Manual solo mining for the win! Yeah i wonder whats the Hardware Error rate on that one  Clearly a waste of heat in my opinion |
|

|

Kind of Ironic i was saying last 2 weeks were tough since we had such low Hashrate. Then 2 hours later we had found 3 blocks ^_^"
|

It allow more TX to fit in one block. It is not required at the moment, but it would be nice to have it increased a little bit soon. But at the same time it bring less competitions for transactions to fit in, thus the TX fee would probably go down. |
|
|
|

Well i'm assuming the aforementioned user has a second miner to compare to? If not someone/I could pop on Teamviewer and check if the lan/wan settings etc is all configured properly. Or if anything stand out.
But this is odd.

Drop the block size talk its off topic!
Hey bitmain
What about a 6th machine @ 1380w keeping it insides the normal power range for most people without needing custom power solutions..
Make a speed setting that lets users have a max speed version & an alternate speed setting that uses max efficiency to give this miner extra life!
You could also use 2 power supplies. It's kind of annoying but it work fine. But i'm expecting the S7 to be within the same form factor/heat dissipation of the S5 so i would be surprised if the watt consumption would be over 690w at the wall at full speed. |

@madjules077
I indeed am against any form of centralization of authority or responsibility. Even if i'm 100% wrong in it being exploitable in any way. I just don't like the idea of giving any sort of power, useless or not, to any "one". I just feel like negligence, mistake or malice can bring about trouble. Just another vector of attack to exploit.
Although labeling XT corrupted might be a bit of an exaggeration, i just dislike that there is shifty code that doesn't need to be there, is being included in the current hot topic "increasing BTC blocksize".
I feel the IP ban blacklist is kind of arbitrary and doesn't have its place in a decentralized "governance".

I only have a S3 connected to the pool. But payout seems really low compared
You're getting paid for 94 and 43 GH/s, your S3 should be more like 450 GH/s. Therein lies your low payouts. And just in case all the explanations weren't clear enough. The reason those values are gecox22's current numbers is is because of the 5Nd method. Basically after 5 blocks you would have your expected 5Nd gh of 450gh or whatever speed it is its running, if properly, at. |

Yeah i have to say. You're pretty attentionate and your pool is performing very well.
Luck has felt pretty rough for the past 2 or so week but it probably just feel that way because we dropped drastically in Hashrate.

The started of thread never replied here again, do you still need, if yes , if your PP verified ?
Did you miss the part where he scammed a user in this thread. And defaulted on a loan somewhere else? |
