You can buy these POFS things at WalMart now.

BFL is such a disaster of a JOKE.

If you insist on eBay / PayPal then you should gladly add 15 to 20 % on top of the price to cover
the buyer fees for them.

So sad about Klee's lost  Cry

Do we now if the theft has dumped klee's 1170btc already?

Looks like it might have been last night. Sad. He's devastated.


EDIT: Actually its not been moved:
https://blockchain.info/address/1GwNLwoCQiobJzmURSAq54vH4BYjFkwaxr

what happened to Klee ?

Were his funds not in cold storage?

No. He even said his security wasn't all that great. Passwords in a plain text file that was in a dropbox, which the password to that dropbox was not changed after heartbleed.

wow.. thats rediculous. plaintext file on dropbox? he seems smarter than that. I have heard people getting their coins stolen on dropbox, people suspect it is dropbox workers who have access to those files.

One would think his personal security tactics would be very strong to guard his fortune. but wow

I honestly think people with access to the dropbox cloud working there are "mining" through the data looking for BTC
related files.  I changed my password to a 30 char COMPLEX password after heartbleed and one day one of my wallets
was suddenly drained.  I completely forgot that I had an original backup of the wallet from long back saved in there
from like super early days of starting BTC and I hadnt encrypted the wallet file.  No one in the world had access to the
files or wallet password besides that file I had totally forgot about, except dropbox.  It was one of the few things I hadnt
put into the truecrypt container unfortunatley.

So yes, I have a feeling people working for dropbox are searching for .dat wallet files and text files with BTC related text.


how much did you lose? hope it wasn't alot, considering it was from early days

Luckily only 0.8BTC.  It really peeved me though because it was just another BTC scam to add to the never ending pile.
Its tiresome trying to hide stuff in a way that isnt touchable by anything, then when I do connect the laptop to the internet
for a transaction, I always worry someone MAY have access at that split second.  To paranoid now.
Ive moved to Armory wallet now and have my wallet on a laptop never connected to the internet and the wallet backups
are on USB drives in my safe.  Im still worried one day Ill see the wallet drained.  It seems like there is never enough you can
do now to keep you BTC safe.  There is always another scam around the corner now.

Zvisha:

Im running the newest firmware and the speed degradation is back.
After 3 or 4 days I see a loss of about 50GH/s at the GUI on one
ASIC, and about 20 - 30 on the other.  After a reboot they spool
back up to about 1.45 and 1.40 then a slow slide down again after
they get back up to speed.  After 5 days I think I lose about 50GH/s
each before I reboot.  Im on 208V power and getting about 22 - 24
degree air.


527  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: [ANN] Spondoolies-Tech - Best W/GH/s ratio, Best $/GH/s ratio on: July 10, 2014, 06:07:16 AM
Thats it.
I changed it to something much more simple, non complex and now works.
WebGUI is good to go with long complex passwords but the SSH seems to require lower.


Now that I can access, what kind of cool stuff can I see??
It would be cool to see the actual CGminer output screen running.
Im a non Unix person unfortunately.
528  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: [ANN] Spondoolies-Tech - Best W/GH/s ratio, Best $/GH/s ratio on: July 10, 2014, 03:22:03 AM
Have RESET password in webGUI.
Rebooted SP10
Trying login with putty.
login - root

access denied.  Password failure.
Very Strange.

Different input methods? Like I mean languages in keyboards? What else could possible cause this? I am confused... Huh

I only have one keyboard language installed in WIN7.

Ive even gone as far as directly copy / paste into Putty and SecureCRT.

Always access denied.  Maybe my password is too complex :S
Password works for the webGUI though thankfully!!!
Not sure either what Im doing wrong.

Does anyone know the login name for SSH?

Ive tried root and admin with the password I created in the WEBGUI but
get access denied every time.

Tried SSH2 with putty and secureCRT but always denied.

is the miner stuck ? happend to me, i had to reboot it.
login is : root

Nope, not stuck.  Works fine with the webGUI and mining away.
I reset the SSH password in the webGUI to my own but it wont accept it.

Just wanted to see the SSH function but wont work for me.

Ive tried root with the old / new passwords and get access denied always.

You are the one who was hacked easy not them.
Don't blame others for your own stupid mistakes.
Learn to loose when u did mi stake and move on.
No one is going to refund you anything consider you are the one fucked yourself with the phishing link...
Gf


FU TOO a$$wipe.
I simply misclicked a link, saw it was phishing, took actions to prevent it, and their site
let it happen.

Funny how people get scammed all the time on this site and the little fanboy wanabe hackers immediately
start helping.

I point out something and get attitude like that.

Like I said.  Go FUCK youself.
533  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: BEWARE of Localbitcions.com - My account was hacked and BTC was stolen on: July 03, 2014, 09:44:55 AM
BE WARNED!!!

If you account is hacked at Localbitcoins.com, YOU WILL NOT be reimbursed.
They thing their system IS FINE from the last message I received and they will not reimburse
anyone even if your walltet gets emptied

BEWARE!!!!









Hi,

we are really sorry that you had bad experience with localbitcoins.

I don't know if this changes anything regarding who to blame etc., but I'll try to guess what happened here.

First of all, the attacker somehow got your new password with this login:

XXXXXXX (0)    June 30, 2014, 1 p.m.    Logged in    207.244.76.170    Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/35.0.1916.153 Safari/537.36

If you are telling the truth when you say that you changed your password to be 32 character random password, the only option is that the attacker somewhat got an access to your computer, either with some kind of remote access or keylogger. Since the timing with the login was way too perfect (attacker logging in 18 seconds after 2FA was disabled, and 20 seconds before you enabled 2FA again) there are practically no other option than some really heavy access to the computer you were using. However, the attacker still required the 2FA key. When you disabled the 2FA, the attacker got in. The weird thing is that the attacker did not even have your password before you had changed it.

When the attacker was inside, you enabled the 2FA. The key to activate 2FA is visible for the user for the next 24 hours. Therefore when the attacker realized that 2FA was enabled when he tried to withdraw funds, he finally found the 2FA activation key from your profile settings, since he/she was logged in to your account earlier. Then the attacker just simply used the 2FA activation key to provide key for log in, and withdrew the funds.

Right now we are changing the system so that when you do change password or enable 2FA, all other sessions are dropped, and it would have had dropped the attacker at the time you enabled 2FA, or the attacker would have enabled it himself, and you would have dropped out.

Also, we have introduced new login guard feature, which means that the account is only accessible by browsers which are verified by email.

It is true that we could have had provided these features earlier, and that with better luck nothing like this would have even happened. However, all our security features were working as designed at the time this hack happened, and therefore we cannot consider reimbursing your losses.

---
Best regards,
Nikolaus





GO FUCK YOURSELF Nikolaus and everyone at Localbitcoins.com


I wouldnt trust these fucking people if I were you.

They are so fucking full of themselves they wont even reimburse me a simple 0.5BTC when they literally admitted
their system has a hole the size of a barn door to let hackers in if you simply click on a link.  JESUS H!!!!
534  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Paypal doesn't allow the sale of BTC but ebay does how does that work? on: July 03, 2014, 05:09:07 AM
Even with an email from them agreeing that they agree to send the funds and there
will be NO item shipped due to the payment is being sent for services rendered by the seller?
Thats pretty unbelievable to me.

I had one recent issue with PayPal and in the resolution center, one of the options was no
tracking number because of the item being related to services rendered... or something like that
in the wording.
535  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: Paypal doesn't allow the sale of BTC but ebay does how does that work? on: July 03, 2014, 05:02:17 AM
I prefer to ONLY selling mining contracts if they want to buy BTC.
They must send me an email from the account sending the PP funds saying
they are the owner of the account, agree to sending the PP funds, and
that they are renting time on an internet based server per day and since the
payment is for services rendered, they agree that nothing will be physically shipped.
I dont think PP has anything saying you cant sell your services in lieu of
time leased on your own servers and receive PP funds, but I could be wrong?

Plus spending 2 to 4 times the amount in electric bills as compared to cheap hosting
and they would take up 20 times as much space, and would be a wiring hazard and
would need an industrial AC unit to cool the room. Did I mention it was a wiring hazard?
538  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: [ANN] Spondoolies-Tech - Best W/GH/s ratio, Best $/GH/s ratio on: July 02, 2014, 06:29:55 AM
I cant even imagine the nightmare of trying to wire up 12 of these somewhere and
not electrocuting yourself trying to afro-engineer something up with server PSUs and
not enough knowledge WTF you are doing, over taxing something, and either burning the
room down or getting hit with 220V 10amp of power out of a server grade PSU and being
dead in seconds.

The server PSUs are cheap but then the sidehacking comes in.

Dell 600W PSU is probably $25, sure, but you cant do shit with it.
The only SEMI neat and safe way around that is the $55 wiring rig
from sidehack.

So now you paid $80 for 600W.  Why waste your time and safety?
Just go buy a nice Corsair or other SAFE 1200W PSU that will run at
least two of them with room left over to overclock too for not much more?

I tell you what, wire up 12 of them for me ONLY with DELL $20 PSUs and send me a picture
of that fucking spaghetti sandwich wiring hazard.
539  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: [ANN] Spondoolies-Tech - Best W/GH/s ratio, Best $/GH/s ratio on: July 02, 2014, 06:18:18 AM
Once they hook mine up and have it working Im going to ask their owner if he will accept more customers.
I think we could fill a rack here pretty quick.  Im just not sure if they have that kind of power capacity for
a full rack that will pull an ungodly ammount of amperage even at 208V.  They usually only run 110V but he
hooked me up on 208V no extra charge.  Im just not sure what kind of load they can handle on their 208V
circuits since they normally only run 110 and may have limited 208V power circuits.
Ill post again when we finally get to that day.  Only a month and some change now to go till the Aug batch gents Smiley

If RoadStress and Guy were able to ship me one EARLY in July I could always get the ball rolling earlier Cheesy
LOL, a guy can dream Smiley

Im waiting till my SP30 is hooked up till I give that out.
They may not like that many people sending them servers that sound like a Jet Engine.

Please count me in Smiley

I am in the line, after ZiG, of course  Grin

While comparing miners here:

Bitmains S3 is basically the competitor to the sp10.

However, I have no doubt that bitmain will come up with a fully rackmountable 4U 1-2kW solution with 0.5W/GH at the wall.
This will in turn be the main competitor to the sp30, and should not require a preorder.

Exciting times, letīs see how it goes.

How so? SP10 are not for sale anymore and are much more expensive/less efficient/less home friendly than an s3. Also don't forget that 0.77w/gh is before underclocking. I wouldn't be surprised if the S3 was already capable of 0.5w/gh at the wall.

9btc buys you 6TH in 2 weeks or ~3 months. It's a pretty simple choice if you ask me.


Where do you get these numbers on which is a better value?
What is your fetish with Antminer and Rockminer? Its like comparing a 10 year old 22" brick of an monitor with a
new LG LED.  You could have something that takes up an entire 6 foot shelf or something that fits in a 2U server rack slot.

What does it cost you to run 12 S3 units?
Lets look at that shall we?

You are going to need at least 6 BIG power supplies.
So that 2 S3 units for 1.5BTC is now more like 2 units for closer to
1.8BTC with a good 1000W minimum Corsair power supply.
So, now you are at near 11BTC for all the hardware.
Thats abouot $7000 at current exchange.
SP30 at the group buy was MUCH cheaper.  $4500 ring a bell?

NOW, at my current hosting location, I can run my SP30 for $150 a month on 208V power
and around 20 - 22 degree temps.  It doesn't matter if it uses 100 or 10,000 KWH.

Lets add up the power usage of the S3.
12 S3 units at 370W each = roughly 4,500 Watts.
Now, Im going to give you a VERY generous power rate at 10C.
I know most people here are paying around 15C.
That is nearly $330 a month in power.  Plus the amount of space
and tangled cables you need to run 12 is ridiculous compared to taking up
2U of space at my data center.

AND, I think unless BTC hits a stable $800 and NEVER drops, mining other ALT coins is
going to be much more profitable VERY soon.  If megabitpower adds their 50PH of hashing
to the BTC network per month like they want to do, well to hell with BTC mining.  Its dead.
Let the fuckers have it.

Where is this colocation data center ...that you "can run my SP30 for $150 a month" ...and " It doesn't matter if it uses 100 or 10,000 KWH"... Huh

I would like to use it too ... Cheesy

ZiG

Im waiting till my SP30 is hooked up till I give that out.
They may not like that many people sending them servers that sound like a Jet Engine.

Its in the US and was a friend of a friend here in Japan who I got introduced to.
They are top notch nice guys.  Had never touched any ASIC before and figured out how to
set mine up with the instructions I made for them, and even did an emergency recovery when
they messed something up doing the static IPs.
Im paying $225 a month for 2 of the SP10s.
They charge me by the rack space U, no power consumption.
Since they use almost zero internet bandwidth they were cool with them using up more power
than the average server.
