61  Economy / Scam Accusations / Re: is cloudhashing.com a scam?? on: November 04, 2013, 01:18:38 PM
I have 0.4 btc earning on 12.25gh, so that's about right.  Seems 0.025 short compared to Perseus though.  They had me at 11gh for a bit till I complained that I wasn't getting a 20% increase on my 5gh July contract.  So maybe they didn't give me any lost/past earnings. 

But I wish they had a better UI.  My iPhone can't navigate it.  They need a phone friendly UI or an app.

Yes, it's true that the UI isn't good for phone -- I understood that that's one of the things they're working on.

Don't know about shares / payments -- I have a september contract. Sometimes the system updates a day of hashing at the end of the day and credits then.

Don't know what everyone's complaining about. It works fine.

You need to update the wallet address on pool.cloudhashing.com, which is a separate login from the main website.

I've had just over 2 BTC paid out so far for my 3 platinum contracts.

I've mined with a Jupiter for two weeks now, made 12 BTC. Won 18 BTC gambling in the same period, so I'm almost break even!

I don't think this qualifies as a Jupiter breaking even... lol

Haha, well. Works for me. I just use very conservative sequences. 

I want to reach 37 BTC to break even on the Jupiter, and then get to 55 to break even on other investments in mining, including 3 cloudhashing platinum contracts, and a BFL Little Single order -- that I could thankfully transfer over to 125 GH BFL hosting order (which should start in Feb).

Normally they process the backlog once the server is back up.

Yup, it's what happened. Unaccounted for bets are taken care of. Works again.
66  Economy / Gambling / Re: SatoshiDICE.com - The World's Most Popular Bitcoin Game on: November 01, 2013, 09:19:08 PM
SD is down and no bets from blockchain are being processed.  I believe this is due to the SatoshiDice tribute issue.

Hope this gets resolved soon

I was wondering why bets don't come back -- so will the backlog be processed later or do we get the original bets back?
67  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: The biggest difficulty jump I have ever seen on: October 28, 2013, 04:52:44 PM
To be honest, it's not as bad as I thought it might be.

If you follow the trends of the network, a 45-50% jump in hashrate and difficulty was to be expected, but if the size of the network grows


I've been mining with my new Jupiter for a week now. Performance has been fluctuating 480-550 Gh/s over the past week, with daily take varying 0.81-1.1 BTC per 24h (average 1.0 per day) -- depending on performance, pool luck (BTC guild) etc.

I expected a 50% rise to mean a 30-35% drop in revenue down to about 0.6-0.7 BTC per day, but it's been better than that. Even though the the network jumped as much as it did, the daily take on the Jupiter is still 0.75-0.85.

Your revenue is based on difficulty.  Until difficulty adjusts of course you will make the same revenue.  If difficulty adjusts up 50% then you will make 1/1.50 = 66% of what you were making before.

I know, that's what I was expecting, but it turned out better than that. It could be pool luck, but it was 0.9-1.0 btc per day average in the past week, and I expected it to drop to 0.65 -- but it's been better than that, to my surprise  0.75-0.85 per day.
68  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: Difficulty being manipulated? on: October 28, 2013, 12:06:19 PM
Not sure -- in the past week the network has swung from 3 PH/s to 4,5 back to 3,1 again, and now we're at 3,6 PH/s. Some rigs are coming online, with some hiccups, but there's no evidence anyone is 'manipulating'.

If anyone was in charge of a large rig -- the gentlemanly thing to do would be to shut down right before a difficulty jump -- and then switch on again. This would maximize profits both for him and the whole network, but I really doubt anyone is pulling such stunts.

You're all full of shit.

I picked up my Jupiter in person on Friday, and it's hashing very well at around 530-540 GH/s.
71  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: kncminer.com unbox and setup video on: October 21, 2013, 01:47:42 PM
I flew out of London to Stockholm and back on Friday to pick up my Jupiter. It's happily spinning now, hashing on average at about 530 GH/s. It fluctuates a bit between 515 and 545.

I had trouble setting it up at first, and panicked for a moment when I thought the device was faulty when lights didn't come on -- although the psu was connected correctly and the fans started spinning. When I opened up the box, the problem was visible -- the little linux device (simpler than a Rasb pi) was loose! 

Once that was pressed down, problem solved. Big relief.

Lesson: don't spend bitcoins on mining hardware. Ever.

73  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: Cloud Hashing worth it? on: September 29, 2013, 06:17:28 PM
I have signed up for them, and gotten to know them at a conference, and they are really real.

Mining starts in less than 48 hours when the KNC rig goes live.
74  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: Is there an Iceland mining group? on: September 25, 2013, 03:25:43 PM
You're not the first to come up with this idea. There was an Icelander at the London Bitcoin conference who is setting up shop with a geothermic energy mining rig.

Looks like your computer was compromised, and keystrokes logged -- the attacker probably combined information from two sources: for example, knew your google password form one source, and found out your wallet address from another (like this forum?).

76  Other / CPU/GPU Bitcoin mining hardware / Re: Is this ebay mining contract worth it? on: September 06, 2013, 10:35:57 AM
He's probably reselling a Cloudhashing contract -- who start their payouts in September when the KNC rig goes live. After December, 20 GH/s will be a lot less profitable than in these crucial first few months of September-November.

Moreover, Cloudhashing has a revenue reinvestment programme to keep their contracts profitable for clients -- and the seller is not passing this on in his offer.

So no, not a good deal at all.

Why is the site down? Are we getting DDOS'ed again?

The question in all this is whether they will again underestimate the heat problem and fail to meet the design that they've announced -- as happened with the Jalapeno and Mini Rig.

Wow -- I fit perfectly in the demographic, although I wonder whether at age 33 I'm getting on a bit.

Do we know anything about the buyer(s) ?
