Coinstand moves from Beta to Delta and keeps XPY pegged at 20! (20% above market that is) https://hashtalk.org/topic/35500tl;dr: it's a pre-announcement ("preparing to move into the next phase"), and still only a limited number of participants will be invited over the "next few weeks". CoinStand Beta Evolves toward Delta Phase!
*snip*
Wow, a whole 20%! That means people can spend their XPY for $0.75, a whopping 3.8% of what they were promised! All hail gawd! |

Maybe having avatars enabled isn't such a good thing or we could allow a once every 3 month change? I think it will not again the forum rules to "rent" our avatar, but I am not sure. A moderator (or maybe better an admin) should express his opinion about this "situation". I think the payrate will be very interesting. Probably will just be looked down upon, but renting your avi... You couldn't pay me enough to do it. It's what people see you as, and that shouldn't be an advertisement. Thank you Theymos  |

I have a hard time believing that everybody will be willing to fork and make all the SHA miners obsolete (besides altcoins).
He started this, but it is a decentralized network. Unless the majority of node owners agree with him, BTC will stay with it's current algo.
I don't really see what his concern is anyway. There was that scare with ghash.io a while back, but now no pool has more than 20% of the hashpower. That makes an attack based on centralization pretty impractical.

You probably need to adjust your computer's IP to be on the same range as the miner. Check out page 3 of this for how. |

So its a scam and nobody s been doing anything about it???
Besides exposing their lies, there really isn't much we can do. The SEC is already investigating, so for the moment we just try to destroy his credibility so people won't invest, and archive anything and everything. |

I wonder how HT will cope with this little gem?
First it has to be confirmed that it is him and not a troll. or a hacked account Style of prose is quite Jonah-like, would be hard to fake. I have verified via e-mail and through a third-party that this is indeed Jonah Dorman posting as "miaviator". how he even states in the first sentence Everything here should be considered opinion to the point of satire.
He edited it. It's now: Everything here should be considered the opinion of the author and not statements of fact true or false. The following is meant to protect my safety and not to harm, injure or cause damage to a person's reputation. to the point of satire. |

Prove it is you
I can vouch that it indeed is him |

There is EPS cable that come with the psu right? It's unused & you can buy EPS to PCIE converter. Or you can cut unused molex then solder them to PCIE cable.
This guy is new to mining and you want him to solder a power supply? Well that's one way to burn your house down... I tried to run a S1 blade off a 2 molex to PCI-e adapter and the rubber literally burned off the wire, smoke and all. As for the EPS, that will be iffy. It's only rated for 235 watts, and the adapter may or may not be good enough quality to handle the extra. Plus he'll never be able to overclock if it does work. It's not worth the potential $60 savings to damage your hardware, or worse |

You state: "What interests me a bit, are the new applications that crypto-currency allows for: "smart contracts", "decentralized autonomous organizations", machine to machine transactions." None of these are new: smart contracts - options; decentralized autonomous organizations - commercial banks; machine to machine transactions - internet transactions and ATMs. The environment might be different but the ideas and their applications already exist.
Well I've never gotten a overdraft with Bitcoin. Banks are designed to make money, BTC is designed for people to transmit $$ through it easily. No middleman=more efficient Same goes for ATM's and internet transactions, Paypal charges $.30+2.9% CC fee to pay for goods, BTC costs $.03. Even if you use a ATM with $0 fee, your bank will probably charge one. Check out for smart contracts, there's a lot they can do that simple options can't. |

Do you have any experience with this sites? Nope, just googled "Free hosting unlimited bandwidth" and pasted the first few with a good WOT rating. |

It's interesting that Shure and AKG got props yet no one has mentioned Sennheisers.
+1, using HD 429's and absolutely loving them. Can only imagine how great $2-300 ones would be It's kinda funny, when you compare them the only way Beats win is in design style, despite the 4x price difference http://versus.com/en/beats-by-dre-studio-vs-sennheiser-hd-429s |

Most of the transactions coming to that address have 5 or more senders. I don't think this is an individual, but a service/exchange that's holding onto a lot of people's coins. Hope they have their security down  |

It just means that one of the ASIC chips isn't working. Rebooting should fix it, but don't worry about it if it doesn't, you won't lose much power.

Personally, I'd rather have a stable price than have it 'bounce back'. However, with technologies like Tether coming along, you can still use BTC without actually having to deal with the price swings. Bitcoin should be seen as more of a tool than a long-term investment IMO.
As for if I think it will, not really. We'll see some rallies and some dips, but nothing like the China bubble we had.

Looking at this PSU, I'm only seeing one 6-pin that is rated for PCI-e power, the rest is SATA/Accessories. You're gonna have a bad time if you try to run a miner off those. 8 pin is only rated for 150w, a S3 pulls over 300. You need to have separate cables for each side, don't mess with splitters. I'd recommend going with a Corsair CX750, pretty good deal right now and plenty of overclocking headroom. Probably a bit overkill, but it will last longer if it's not running at max. Edit: don't bother with Molex to PCIe adapters either, the wire coating literally burned off and that was just with a S1 |

My original post was a little misleading. The higher prices I mentioned (using PayPal) is from a buyer, not a seller. He is willing to pay anyone over $300/BTC, when the exchange price is currently $250. See https://localbitcoins.com/ad/141440/cash-out-your-bitcoins-paypal. Why wouldn't you buy 2BTC or so from BTC-E and sell them to this guy at a profit? Is it because the risk of accepting payment using PayPal? The fact that he's only using Paypal for that rate is a huge red flag. With the fact that his only other payment method is at market rate, I'd say he's either setting up for a big scam, or using stolen accounts. |

Very interesting. might even try this out myself  Looks like a few did was only 3 left appears to go to another product now it's out of stock. There's plenty of them on eBay. Getting one built into a case like that is probably the best idea, as it would be pretty awkward to use if you can't pick it up |
