63  Bitcoin / Mining software (miners) / Re: Low speed at two Block Erupters (CGMiner) :( on: August 27, 2013, 05:34:31 PM
But why one Block Erupter works (connected DIRECTLY to computer-USB2.0) fine on 336MH/s and second, connected on powered HUB doesn´t work?
They might work with not enough curent, but the they are runnng slower thann 336 MH/s. Maybe somethings there is wrong with your hub?

//btw my last message was:

not working for me it says:


-bash: ./cgminer: binary file cannot be executed

i replace old cgminer file
change rights with chmod. start bash and then go to the directory that contains cgminer. Then do
Code:
sudo chmod 777 ./cgminer
(lower right might do as well, but 777 is easy to remind)

500mA + 500mA = 1A.  Not counting the hub's overhead, so your hub's PSU is underpowered.

//definetely not. Now i tried with one Block Erupter connected to HUB and one connected directly to computer, and effect was same, so i am sure there isn´t problem with power


I'm sure it is, but hey, whatever.  Knock yourself out chasing your tail.
Indeed, a Block Erupter needs 505 - 510 mA, a USB 2.0 Port only delivers 500mA, so this cant work from a USB 2.0 port directly. You can either plug them into USB 3.0 ports (which deliver 1000mA per port) or use an USB hub with enough power.

changing logos is like throwing away credibility you have gained over time

Sorry I meant 1000
And how will you be paying that 50,000$ ?
If he wants to waste his money on something which is already out of date, then just let him be.

Matthew:out
you can still sell them with a big gain on eBay or Amazon. People are paying crazy prices for Block Erupters, just because they are available now and they are cheap compared to other solutions.

maybe its a bit underpowered? I had a similar problem when I connected two Block Erupters to a 5-port USB hub with cardreader that only has a 1000mA PSU.

Try to contact friedcat, if you dont get a response you have to deal with one of the regional distributors.

right click on that window, choose the last option (I think its properties in english), then go to layout. There you can change window size and position. When you restart bfgminer it will use that new layout.

What happend to most YAC P2Ppools?  I only can connect to yacpool.tk at the moment
73  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: Which should I worry about? My Pool's stats or my miners? on: August 24, 2013, 03:48:52 PM
Dont worry, your pool shows the hashrate of accepted shares, while CGMiner shows the complete hashrate (including stales, hardware errors and hashes that are lower than pool difficulty). The hashrate shown by the pool is usualy lower than the CGminer stats.

78  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: SHA 256 style coins on: August 17, 2013, 11:30:37 AM
They are certainly not more successful than SHA 256.   The reason you see so little launch of SHA 256 is that it is totally dominated by Bitcoin, developers of Alt Coins know they do not have much chance against Bitcoin.

The fact that BTC uses SHA is not reason for why there are only a few other alts that use it. That reason is because it is very easy to 51% a new SHA with the number of ASIC's that are out in the wild now. As we know when BTC was coming up, there weren't as many ASIC's around and it was able to survive, but it had it's bumps along the way, for sure!

My question is, what can be done to successfully launch a new SHA-based coin at this point in the ASIC game? Anyone?

I have to quote myself:
Quote
1.) release it as a combined POW/POS coin and do a big premine, hold that premine until the POS of the other users kicks in to protect the coin and then give the premine away for bountys and faucets. But there will be lots of dumb people that will blame you because of the premine and that wont mine your coin

I cant think of an other way to start a new coin. You have to protect the coin with your premine stake until the stake of the other miners protects the coin.
79  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: SHA 256 style coins on: August 17, 2013, 11:11:05 AM
Yepp. ASIC means Aplication Specific Integrated Circuit. They can just do one thing, and the current ASICs like Jalapenos, Block Erupters, etc. can only do SHA256d hashing (which means creating a SHA256 hash and then creating a SHA256 hash of that hash), nothing else.
If there will be simple scrypt ASICs one day, then you could only use them for Scrypt (N=1024, r=1, p=1) with salsa 20/8 mixing and final SHA256 hashing as Litecoin, Feathercoin, Novacoin and 99% of all other altcoins use it. But you cant use them for scrypt jane coins like Yacoin (N=variable starting with 64 and doubing with every step, r=1, p=1, chacha 20/8 mixing and finaly Keccak512 hashing) and clones (YBCoin, ZCCoin, J-Coin, Freecoin,...), Onecoin (scrypt 1024,1,1 with salsa64 and blake512), Solidcoin 2.0 (Blake512 with SHA 256), Sifcoin and Quarkcoin (mixing randomly 3 different SHA candidates (Blake512, Keccak512, Skein, Gröstl, JH, Treefish512)), Copper Lark (Keccak512), Memorycoin (mixing high N scrypt with SHA512) or Primecoin (calculation primes).
Starting now a SHA256d coin with lots of ASICs available, is dangerous, as you only have only two choices:
1.) release it as a combined POW/POS coin and do a big premine, hold that premine until the POS of the other users kicks in to protect the coin and then give the premine away for bountys and faucets. But there will be lots of dumb people that will blame you because of the premine and that wont mine your coin
2.) release it unprotectect (without POS and premine), but then there is a high risk of a 51% attack which anyone with a big ASIC Farm could do
Thats why you dont see much new SHA256d coins, Zetacoin is lucky IMHO that it is still alive.
