It might be wise to lock this thread and update the first and last post directing everyone to the drill bit forums to avoid a split discussion.
No, people do not need 50 forums to check each day. If you don't want any people to discover Drillbit products, then by all means live on a separate forum. |

I read that, but there was nothing about shipping advice for Aussie orders that haven't arrived yet. |

Barn, can you update us on the Australian orders that have not been shipped yet? How far down the queue we are up to etc? Do people that haven't received the boards yet have to send them back or have they been fixed already?

Seems there is a version 2.5 coming mcxNOW has halted signups and some trading mcxNOW has seen unprecedented growth in recent months and especially in the last few weeks. mcxNOW is a custom coded exchange built 100% by one man in C++ . This means if anything has to be modified then only one person can do it. Unfortunately the growth has been too fast to match with the support requirement as only one person can currently do all support. This is a burden of 200 to 400 emails a day among many requests on IRC and through chat. This makes development of mcxNOW nearly impossible without neglecting valid user requests through support. I am happy that in over 7 months mcxNOW has not been hacked or lost any coins and that the exchange has scaled well from 100 users upto a peak of about 3500 users online at once, it shows the design here is pretty good. However I never anticipated some aspects of running an exchange that can overburden the site (such as user support). To combat this I will develop mcxNOW v2.5, an upgrade from the current v2. v2.5 of mcxNOW will remove all free support caused by user fault. Such as forgotten passwords, lost google authenticator code, sending to wrong address, etc. To receive support for any user fault will require $50 to $100 equiv in fees that will be given back to the exchange in payouts like any other fee. This is to encourage people to be more careful with their login details. Furthermore, failure to be logged into an account for 2 months will see that account destroyed and all funds returned to mcxNOW as fees. This is a big change and will require you to agree to new terms and conditions to continue using the site. These changes are designed to make people more self reliant and less bothersome to mcxNOW. If you do not like these new rules it is advised you stop using mcxNOW. The next version will include an improved wallet interface that is not bound to any existing node software such as Bitcoin. Along with other improvements it should stop all mcxNOW faults caused by a wallet issue (pool payments, failed withdraws, etc). However if there are any faults caused by mcxNOW then that support will be provided free of charge. In the meantime I have disabled creation of new accounts and disabled trading of some currencies here to lighten the support load whilst I develop v2.5. I estimate the new version will take 3-4 weeks to complete. Thank you for your support and hopefully we can see all of you back here relatively soon trading even faster and better.

Whats the difference between the old and newer chips?

Honestly, my hashrate is pretty low on four boards.  I'm using a 300watt powersupply, which should be good enough, yet only getting 58gh/s from four boards. This seems mighty low to me. By my calculations, I should be getting around 70GH/s. Maybe it's my powersupply? Overclocking is a no go as well. I'm setting my clock speed to 40 for my blades, even 42 doesn't work. And it doesn't just error, it plain won't work. I'm directly connected to usb ports, no hubs here. I am also using a masscool 120mm fan blowing down the heatsinks, so no passive cooling here. Slightly disappointing, but in a fun way. Now I get to troubleshoot something. I've already discovered the cause of my libusb errors (usb3 is no beuno). In response to why the bitfury heatsinks are on the bottom... That's how these chips are packaged. The heat transfer pad is actually on the bottom of the chip, so you connect to it through a transferpad in the PCB. BFL just did it wrong. And you are seeing the bitfury chips. They are not under the heatsink...  BFL chip packages have nothing whatsoever to do with Bitfury chip packages. BFL is doing like 15watts per chip, which would fry the Bitfury package in an instant. That said, Bitfury needs a heatsink unless you are running at 2GH/s per chip. |

Can someone please post a closeup of the U20 component that is failing so we can read the writing on it?

Obviously you're forgetting that the new best exchange ever in the entire world will be accompanied by.... SC v3!!! Everything will be better and no one will abuse their creation (promise), climb on the money rocket!  Is that before or after RS finished Microcash that he promises many months ago before he started mcxNOW? |

So, I hooked up my remaining 5 boards without a mini-plane, switched out the USB cables, and plugged them directly into my desktop. They seem to be running okay and I did not have the usual problems of being unrecognized by Win7 when I plug in more than 3 boards.   I am sure a fix is on the way and this will be sorted out in a few days. I do hope the dead boards can be revived somehow. It's an unusual problem in that it happens after a period of time rather than the instant you first use the mini plane. It's almost like a component failure. |

Yep  oh well, time to search for more dividend paying shares. Both Crypto-trade and Cryptsy have some shares on offer and neither are anonymous owners. |

Another gem a few min ago. earthrise56: @realsolid i just don't get it. you start war with paying customer....
realsolid: @earthrise56 only in your fucked society delusion do you think money should make you tolerable, asshole

Please don't feed the ignorant trolls.
You're right, mate. That guy has just been getting on my nerve the last two days lol. I put him in my ignore list after the second post. |

4 boards: 1 went south, no LED, in about 4 minutes. Another went south, no LED, in about 3 hours. Two more went south (one with LED lit) after running overnight. In that case, I changed some unrelated USB devices, and they went ZOMBIE, so I powered down, waited 5 minutes, and powered up. Neither will detect any longer.
Definitely seems to be a power component failure. Pretty much every board will fail within a day or two, I suspect.
I thought they were being tested before shipment, I guess not very well. |

Are you US based or elsewhere?
Either way - great QC.
What do you expect when you get boards made at some random Chinese mob to make a few bucks more profit. China would be right down on my list of places to outsource electronics manufacture to, I have opened up enough of their stuff off eBay from there to know what to expect. I would use Taiwan or Thailand if I couldn't get it made in Australia. |

still dev fucked this up for a lot of miners, release shit properly from the start and not OH NO miners, speed.. tooo much... what do we do let's panic and fuck everyone's coins up
You obviously understand more about swearing than you do about crypto coins, perhaps you should read about the Bitcoin fork earlier this year, or the multiple TRC hard forks, FTC, GME, WDC, CNC, TRC, etc. that's how crypto coins work. TAG is doing fine. |

Anyone know what the currecnt net hash is? The diff at 52.88545922 seems very high for a reasonably new alt coin. this coin is such a damn fucking mess, biggest piece of shit mess around
Dev learn your fucking shit next time, noob
DO NOT MINE THIS CRAP BECAUSE YOU WILL CONSTANTLY LOOSE YOUR COINS, DEV HAS NO IDEA HOW TO RUN A DAMN COIN
Devs don't run a coin, miners and pool owners do, learn who to shout at if you loose a coin. |

hi guys I lost 83 ( 52 + 31) coins that participated in Pos mining reskan and reboot blocks does not help.. please help how to get coins on balance???   Nobody tells me what to do? yesterday an open question You probably wont get the coins back they no longer exist, you were most likely on a fake block chain. @ erk - We notified Paul at Cryptsy as soon as we knew what was happening via twitter direct to him (which responded back to, which was good considering the growth pains they are having) and via the ticket system as well. We told bter.com as well, but nothing back from them yet, and I think btc38.com halted trading for a while. Also notified coinex via their support tickets. We certainly don;t expect them to read this lil thread when they deal with so many coins..  Good work. |

Kind of off-topic, but started working on an exchange a few weeks back. Matching engine is complete. Finished support for google auth yesterday. Hopefully over the next few weeks I'll be able to finish the rest and start working towards a private beta.
Rest assured that when this thing launches there will be a real registered company behind it with datacenter presence in at least 3 countries. I've watched realsolid's clown show long enough and it's time somebody put something together that reasonable people can trust.
BTW, once we get the web version of the exchange up and running, we're planning to bring in some really interesting features. For example, I've been talking to a company, for the better part of 6 months, that has produced a forex trading application and they seem willing to convert it over to handle virtual currencies. At this point, they are holding for the completed API. It has full support for bank grade charts w/technical indicators and comes with an integrated automated strategy trading system. This isn't some metatrader4 bullshit either. Much more modern.
Realsolid never wanted to run an exchange*, it was just his way of scamming people for Bitcoins. He really wants to run an illegal gambling site, and a real estate scam. Good luck with your project. * You can tell from the missing basic features: eg. the useless transaction logs, the insistence on anonymity etc. it's all designed to cover tracks not provide a meaningful crypto exchange service. |
