It will just be added as any other transactions not as a returned tx, the ones that will be prioritized are always the tx with higher transaction fee.

The network as of now maybe not "that efficient" since the scaling solutions aren't exactly being used by the majority but,
using that method of prioritization can easily get abused by network spammers which can even lead to more stuck transactions.

For the live update of the total number of unconfirmed transactions, you can check it here: https://blockchain.info/unconfirmed-transactions.

Currently (time of my post), we have 3,000 Pending tx which suggest a 30sat/byte tx fee for fast transactions.
You've sent yours at the worst timing when it almost reached sub 20k value making the recommended fee skyrocket to 1k sat/b,
still something temporary like that will guarantee the low fee tx to be verified after the  spike.
But not during heavy times like last December's "issue".

If you can't speculate the tx fee base on the rate of growth of the number of unconfirmed transactions. Just visit:And use the green recommended sat/byte transaction fee.

Did you just mistook me for a Bitcoin Trash supporter?  
The the main point of my post is: It's getting off-topic. (look at your title and OP)

Read this again:

Anyways, no hard feelings and I think it's time to lock this thread.

Thank you. (+1 politeness)

Nope, definitely not the driver.
Windows-based PC will display BSOD if it was the driver's fault for worst case scenarios, incompatible drivers may work but the performance will be too obvious to the user or wont install at all.
It's the Hardware as the first page post suggests.

Lastly, BTC22 haven't bumped this for a while but he's active and minin' and probably solved this issue himself.
It's just this Jr member: honestinvestor selfishly bumped this thread after a month of slumber which brings the "topic title" alive again.

Hey! since it's a long post, make use of "iURL" links on your Table of Contents to jump to the specific listed part.
Example: Click this to skip my post.

Use this as the table of contents:
then, enclose the target headers or just parts of it with [anchor=01(to 07)][/anchor] like:
Try it, it's more convenient for readers to read a long thread with links.
....

Yes, that's correct and simple.

in addition:
Proof of Work (POW) is "Mining" using hardwares like Processors, GPUs, ASICs or even HDD/RAM.
Proof of Stake (POS) selection can be randomized depending on the "stake" which is directly or indirectly based on the holder's total number of coins in possession.

Every POS coins differ a lot in picking/distributing the reward.
Some are using "MasterNodes" that pose as a full node and a non-hashing miner that holds the owner's coins at stake.
Some are simple higher share higher chance which can easily leads to centralization.

That would unnecessarily require every visitors of the site to open a channel just to visit the page.
The similar PPA (Pay Per Article) might work using LN, but it still not a convenient option for visitors even the traditional fiat method, look at its popularity.

Even if it's as cheap as 1 satoshi, the mainstream will think twice before considering the hassle.
I've realized that this is for (online/remote accessible) server security, leave the mainstream out of it.

It will require an always online Lightning Hub in order to accept access attempts 24/7.
For a single person or a team, that's going to be crucial.
but for a large-companies like a Hosting Service Provider who's willing to add a new type of security, it's quite possible.

Here's a youtube link (short video, not mine): Antminer s9 Sound Level Test- How loud is an S9? Tested Take note: Non-skipable Ads may play before the actual video.

Worst case scenario isn't failing to disperse the heat (those have really fast RPM), but Bitmain's shipping service.
They may send you a completely worn-out unit [yes, most of them were already used (for testing?)] or a Defective one which will take forever to RMA.

The noise of S9's fans are quite higher pitched than the old S7 Antminers, but both are really annoying.
If that's the case, you will be forced to pick one Antminer S9 or your wife?  

-Edit-
I realized that you've said: V9. But those have pretty same fans and noise, ehm.

I will not go against this but, the OP's format is giving me headaches.

Here're some of my points:

• The images blend well to the text (width=1280 screen), to the point that the whole thing looks like pure text with broken paragraphs.
• There's an add or signature add in the first image.

---

To help you with this:

• I suggest you to resize the images to mismatch the default size of the forum's font by addding "width=size"
  ex: [img width=800 alt=image]picture.jpg[/img] .
• Make use of bold, italic and underlines for headers and for emphasis. [hr] for breaklines with actual lines.
• And crop the image that contains a signature add, I think that one might have broken a forum rule.

Lastly, this must be placed to Beginners and Help if this is really a "tip for newbies".
Otherwise, you can change the title with "Members", "Forum Members" or others; most of those "scroll-wasters" aren't newbies anyways.

I didn't get this, where's the joke? The grammar?

In addition to my post above, knowing how Mobile mining works is relatively the same as knowing how mining works.

In simple (newbie) terms: Your Processor and/or Graphic Processing Unit (GPU) will try to solve the Proof of Work (POW) Algorithm of the coin to make a new block that contains the reward.
In pool-mining, the mining operator does most of this, the miners will just have to share their processing power to the pool.
You'll get the picture if you stick to researching cryptocurrency mining.

You might wanna need these info too:
Electroneum Mobile miner works like this: it simply get the online active time of the miner and their server computes it based on that factor alone, it wont even use your GPU/CPU to mine ETN (try it).

Faucet Mining will use your CPU to add to the total hashrate of their coinhive (or simmilar API) account.
The amount (you'll receive) will be based on your Phone/PC's hashrate and the coin's current price at a "lose-lose" basis.

See, those are pointless mining schemes.
It wont even help you for the sake of experience, those could bring some misguidance to newbie mining enthusiasts, IMO.

An advice to Newbies: Lock Thread(s) After Getting Enough Replies.

The term "mobile mining" was just Electroneum's gimmick and totally pointless,
unless we have a time machine to bring these android phones back to the days when bitcoins are mined using a PentiumIV PC.

At least, you can "micro-earn" small fraction of a coin through faucet websites that offers "mining" service.
Or Electroneum's (ETN) mobile miner.
But as i said, that's unprofitable and pointless.

You can do that JFF using a disposable android phone.

Examples of the sites with mining gimmick: coinpot.co, freebit.co.in and others.

Currently, it's already 25 confirmations.
Did it made it through the invoice time limit? I guess no.

I never seen an exchange withrawal transaction that used one input (not batching txs).
And the address starts with "1", Coinbase.com?

Ok, the PSUs are different, this is pretty normal for two different Power Supplies. Read the bottom part of my previous reply.

In addition, Corsair is a reputable brand which strongly suggest that your first PSU has a good power efficiency.
The second one is a Chinese Brand? (I never heard of it, honestly-edit-Taiwan), it could be less efficient that makes it more power-hungry than the 1st one.

Can't tell, unless you tell us your full specs or the Power Supplies and Video Card Brands at least.

Reply with these information:

• PSU1 and PSU2 Brand and Model
• GPU Brands and Model, which of them are connected to PSU1/PSU2
• Each GPU's overclocking settings

Then, others/I may try find out the reason why.

---

Here's a hard guess: Some GPUs of the same model can be more efficient (hardware quality) than the others,
the chance is higher if their Brands are assorted (different manufacturers).

Why here? I  mean, in this thread.

Is there any way to patent the name "Bitcoin" because V and his lads wont stop these kind of propaganda unless there's something regulating the "names".
Like a specialized world-wide patent regulatory body for open-source projects to protect the brand.
Potentially, it can minimize scam coins and ICOs too. The system will be too complicated, I guess.

Anyways, here's to be on-topic again: Yes, SegWit is Backward Compatible

For the benefit of "lighter" transactions, overall cheaper fees and old-wallets/services compatibility,
Choose SegWit that starts with "3" (nested Segwit in a P2SH).

For now, native SegWit "bc1" (bech32 P2WPKH) SegWit addresses aren't supported by some exchanges and online wallet services.
Some of those are not accepting bc1 addresses for withdrawals.

What are the examples of those "Centralized Algorithms"?
AFAIK, mining algorithms are designed to decentralize the transaction processing and production of coins in the first place.

What do you mean by "Algorithms that sacrifice decentralization for scalability"?
Easier algos which are more scalable than others can be centralized? I believe, no.
Whenever those powerful adversaries come up with an ASIC that can outperform the masses, the battle of the hashes will still continue, the coin will still be decentralized.

I can confirm this, I just recently tried to consolidate 3 inputs (SegWit) with 0.5sat/byte tx fee (Electrum approx it as "within the next 25 blocks")
and it got included in a block right after <10minutes, literally the next block after I broadcast the transaction.

I'm seeing blocks with 51 transactions right now (#522030)
With that, even 0sat/byte can be confirmed within hours (but I'm not recommending it).

Why not ask here?
Members will probably tell you "not to mine using a laptop". I tell you that, as well.

Surely it can mine CPUmining-optimized algorithm (old CryptoNight is not the best choise for now) but laptops aren't designed to run 24/7 @ 80-100% usage,
that will probably strain the compactly assembled peripherals inside by the temperature.
Laptops with integrated high-end GPUs are not cheaper than Rigs with GPUs, in fact some are worth 10 times the price of the GPU itself.
Using those for mining is a no-go.

If the laptop is at disposal, go on. Earn few decimals of XMR(s) before throwing it in the trash.

Are you trying to find any possible explanations to those "stuck transactions" last December? Or a conspiracy theory?

Theoretically, someone can if he's a miner or a pool operator that has the majority of the total hashrate (more than 51%) which could continuously mine about 6-10 blocks successively (100minutes approx) by not including that tx.
Any blocks mined by others has the chance to not include that transaction, thus, another set of blocks that excluded it (from that "someone") might follow up ~another hours of delay/waiting.

This is statistically impossible unless the total number of competing miners (not pool miners, but the pools and solo miners) fell to one-digit.
And apparently, if someone have that power, he wouldn't use it just for that.

TL;DR, it's a no.
