I have not seen additional speed for eth
12 x 470 8g
 Cry

@marvykkio

what are your core and mem settings for these? with or without modded bios?
thanks

My mining speed is the same as 7.4 - 29.3mh (RX480 core 1150 mem 2100)

thanks, but i really want to know about RX 470 8gb.
1100/1950?

core clock 1260
memory clock 2100
power limit + 13
core voltage -12
fan speed 70%
intensity 20

1100 mv

@marvikkio
Thanks, not sure that I can use these with a modded bios, though.

"My thinking about this case become very uptight"

something even simpler:

1 btc=1 bitcoin
1 bts=1 bitcoin etf share=10-2 btc=bitshare
5883  Economy / Speculation / Re: bitcoin units and ETF on: February 23, 2017, 09:22:46 PM
I think it may be too late now. Coinbase, Bitpay and a few others tried to introduce 'bits', 100 satsoshis, and that went nowhere.

If Satoshi hadn't been balls deep in computer science, he would've realised most humans don't want strings of zeroes before the numbers that count. He should've either started off with many more primary units or made the change when it was just starting to get somewhere.

Well, maybe, but I surmise that people would like to trade etf-equivalents in "pure" bitcoin, hence the need.
Current bits (10-6 btc)  are made up and too far from a meaningful value yet.

10-2; call them
bet(s) if you want to (bitcoin etf equivalents) OR
bif(s) (bitcoin etf equivalents)

maybe someone will propose something better (@york780: bitshare is good too)

5884  Economy / Speculation / Re: bitcoin units and ETF on: February 23, 2017, 09:10:45 PM
ETF: looks like it is getting closer as Winkies just filed an amendment changing the number of shares for the initial trade from 100k to 500k.

With that, and in the interest of liquidity while trading bitcoin proper, maybe we should at least consider some units other than btc. Otherwise soon we might have too many zeroes before numbers for small purchase (quite soon).

I know about bits (10-6) and mbtc (10-3), but what about something similar to bitcent (10-2), which would be an equivalent to 1 COIN ETF share:

My name candidates (for 10-2 bitcoin):

bitt (bitcoincent)
bitty (same meaning, but softer)
betf (bitcoin etf unit) #not very conducive to pronunciation, I know

Any ideas?
Overall, I think that trading in 'etf' units might be helpful for newbs and those who like buying things by the 100s (similar to stocks).

The units are already defined. https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Units

I am just proposing a short hand for bitcent (centi-bitcoin is a mouthful)  Sad
defined by whom? wiki contributors?
nonsense, we can change them if we want to
'they' also defined:
bitcoin-bong; bitcoin-ton?
WTF!?

^^^Well, based on comparison with 2011-2013 we are coming up shallower, but had a couple of sharp bumpletts already.
Most likely scenarios:
1. we are about to undergo a "phase transition" and go for a sharp local super-exponential peak OR
2. wiggle down to -1.2-1.25 before doing #1

Both scenarios would favor long positions, but wiggle down to $800-900 might be possible on ETF rejection, for example, which would be hopefully dismissed by the market.
jl2012 provides numbers for the all-time high, but I am curious, what would 1 or 1.5 peak look like in current numbers (1.87 might be too extreme).

Question: if you convert PASC, decred or sia to eth or btc, how much more earnings would you get with the dual mode?
Does power use increase as well? I assume so, but how much?

Also, how do you list adapters to know which one is first, second, etc.?
Does this command exist or i have to use system tools?
Thanks.

Between all my buddies I think we secured about 50 of these. Smiley


Yeah today's price was really good.

I have been using them since May of 2016 my favorite mining board.

well, their RMA policies are questionable, right?  Wink

@BigWolf and @z(10)

thank you so much, I think I finally got the full picture..
I used
chmod x+u 'filename' before...755 is advanced Grin

Final touch...I just start the whole caboodle (after modding the miner.sh) with just

./miner.sh

?

Much thanks again...so much to learn.
5892  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Optiminer/Zcash v1.6.1 (GPU, Windows+Linux, AMD) on: February 23, 2017, 03:09:11 AM
Change that so it has your information.  By default it is setup for Flypool.  If you use something different, comment out the flypool and uncomment the section you want.  Just change the info to match your wallet.  That is all you really have to edit in the file.  And yes, you can use nano, gedit, vi,  any of those or any other favorite text editor.  It's just a text file.    This is the file that actually starts up optiminer and keeps it running.

Thanks again, but this what I am really confused about.
I am starting the miner with a string in terminal (similar to what I show below), NOT by accessing the mine.sh
What does entering all this info in mine.sh gives you?
An ability to start anywhere without cd-ing into optiminer-zcash folder?
Once you put all info into mine.sh, do you just start it with
cd optiminer-zcash
./mine.sh

instead of

./optiminer-zcash -s eu1-zcash.flypool.org:3333 -u t1NF6yLUxAAttibU8mzfX86o8aWLcqF38DX.rig1 -p x

Or something else that I am missing?
Thanks again
5893  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Optiminer/Zcash v1.6.1 (GPU, Windows+Linux, AMD) on: February 22, 2017, 07:23:19 PM
Thank you very much.
At least i got it now where to start.

Although, I am not sure what "setup mine.sh" means

Do you mean, open it up with nano, for example, and edit context? To do what? Automatic start?
can you give an example of such setup, please?

Typically, i just make a mining string text file including executable, then copy and paste into the terminal window.
Lo tech, would like to do better.

Wow, BTC price hit $1126USD today and is still rising.  

Economics would suggest around $1200 to keep a par with the block halving in July. It's nice to see it getting up, especially as miners because we get the the same amount of BTC no matter the conversion Smiley.

Glad to have pointed my first 13.5 S9 at the pool  Grin  I am looking forward to the next one, in a week, but still need a PSU.

far from it, you forgot about difficulty rise on the top of halving.
we are getting about 2.5 less per th on top of 2X less due to halving.
However, we got 2.5 times more efficient machines, so it is not as bad, but it will be if price rise stops or reverses and difficulty continues to rise for a bit.
5895  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / new BTC mining GPU mobo? on: February 22, 2017, 12:03:28 AM
Biostar released new Pro BTC mobo.
My question is why?
maybe they just want to keep the Pro BTC trademark?

nobody mines BTC with GPUs, or at least not currently.

Somehow, I am not getting it (what I saw before).

My order has arrived, just 2 S9 one installed and working in my server room, the other is at home - but not for long as it's way too loud.
fount out that all of my wife's candles were melted in a goo at the bottom of a container.  haha  Put them in a data center before the wife finds out!  haha

put candles in the datacenter,  Grin?

busted either way, unless you can un-melt them OR replace with an identical new ones.
Why they always say: "Can I talk to you for a minute?"

Hopefully the Biggie prototype works without a lot of issue. If it does I'll look into batching; it'll require juggling back and forth between Biggie and 2Pac (heh) for a while. Gonna need multiple buttloads of ASICs.

check the @yochdog auction on ebay, maybe he will sell at some discount here.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lot-Of-Bitmain-Antminer-S5-/192106981757

lots of disassembly work, though...
99X30=2970 chips, if i am not mistaken in my math.
5900  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: GekkoScience is now dabbling with 16nm ASICs for new designs on: February 21, 2017, 04:15:48 AM
Very curious to get these and see what is needed, hopefully the software is easy

Really was hoping to have the bigger ones by now Sad

Biggies?
