Phil  , this has nothing to do with ip addresses , they all have static ips to begin with. I am certain this is not a network problem.

It will not work, try placing a regular pc in a closed freezer and see to yourself, miners unlike dead cows generate heat consistently, you need to get rid of the heat and provide fresh cool air for your miners, what ever you have in mind won't work if it does not have some sort of ventilation.

Hey thanks for responding Bitmaxz

This is not a problem with 1 or 2 miners , there is a quite a good number of them that have the same problem "all of this batch to be clear". this can't be a random issue.

The weird part is after failing to flash, it still mine to the pool with no problem, it shows on awesome-miner as well, working perfectly, but all types of connections are refused, can't even restart it via ssh command.

not sure if you have read the OP, i am indeed basing my prediction on the past, everything that has to do with TA is based on the past.

i used to think the same way many people think, going by the theory that BTC now is different than before, it can't do this and it can't do that, but everyday this theory gets weaker and weaker.

 in 2014/15 we dropped about 85% from ATH, last year when were where at 6k everybody and their mother said that there is noway we would fall below that, no way btc would fall 85% from ATH, it's different now, the whales are here,adoption , lightning ,seqwit ,Binance, ETF all these things make btc different from 2014 bla bla bla bla and then boom we fall right at almost the same % we did 5 years ago.

sup people, i ran into a very strange problem with these used S9s 13.5th batch i got, all of them have the same exact problem.

when i try to flash a new firmware , the miner shows "update successful" and then restarts itself "normal" but when i try to login  with either root/root  from browser ,or root/admin using ssh nothing will work, i have to physically power the miner off and on to be able to login again, and once i do, the same old firmware is there still.

i did a hard reset for all of them and now they seem to have factory default firmware.



but the same problem is still there.

things i tried

1- resetting using both IP reporter and pin "no different tho, because i know the reset worked"
2- i tried almost every single firmware for S9 from bitmain website

that's all i could attempt before i ran out of time, and had to go take care of something at home, so i left them running on default firmware which works just fine except that temps are higher on this batch than  the rest mainly because of the firmware difference.

has anybody had a similar issue? what do you think the possible cause?

well but that's the case with everyone else, some people trade with DT members just to get positive feedback "trust farming" and you can see many examples of feedback from DT members even for small deals.

escrow agents may also plan a large exist "scam" , people with higher ranks can also use their rank to scam , The risk is there in every corner of the internet.

besides, you do not need to trust a member to trust their feedback, when you buy something of amazon or ebay and you check the feedback, you don't need to trust the reviewers, I trust many people's feedback but probably only 1 or 2 of them with money, and i am sure that's the case with everyone else. so trust and feedback should really be treated separately IMO.

so if a newbie or member rank gets into DT and spend time and effort tagging scammers,and proves himself to be a good DT member, it does not mean one should trust him with money, that's a whole different subject.

you talked about freedom, and i explained that every member on the forum has the same level of freedom regardless of their position and score in the trust system.




The laws that are followed now came from old DT members , the majority of new DT1 and DT2 members are elected by old members, so if you trust their judgment then there is no reason to nag about new members.



Nop , i am not ! it's good to see you practice what you preach, just checked Satoshi's trust page and you have him in your trust list despite the fact that he has 0  feedback sent ,and most likely will never send any, you seem to be confusing trust list and DT to feedback and trustworthiness. having Satoshi in your trust list does nothing besides adding a new row into the forum's database.

but hey that's just my opinion,  if you still insist that only old members should be on DT , you may very well sort all users by user's ID and include the first 100/1000/5000 members in your list.


and i received the 44th most merited in just a few months, not a big deal.

  
Sorry if i was too harsh ,its not me who accused you for anything, it's the "older members" whom you think should control DT list , why bother explain yourself to a new comer like me ? i am just a random person who "trigger happy when it comes to tagging users"  known by nobody, you should spend the time sorting things out with those that you think matter most.


You are probably right, except that, i have 0 interest in forum politics, and i give no fuck who likes/dislikes whom, check my trust list and you will understand, my main motive is to expose and tag scammers and that's it.

you are mixing things up here, a trustworthy user does not necessary mean a good reviewer, the initial purpose of the trust system was intended for that ONLY  > https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=211858.msg2221664#msg2221664

it was even named "Marketplace trust" when it was first implemented, just because some people use it for other purposes , it does not mean that it's good for anything else aside from mainly tagging scammers.

not being on DT does not reduce your right of free speech, not even having negative feed back does, in fact a few people with negative feedback post more than 100 other users combined on Meta alone, your theory would have been valid if the trust system limits you from posting or something like that.

aside from that a good DT member is one who spots scammers and abusers, if satoshi himself was to come back and not be active in terms of tagging scammers then he does not deserve to be a DT member, he would probably be the most trusted member but that's a whole different story.

so unless the community members are going to benefit from your position in terms of trading, then there is no reason why one should be on DT list just for their own self satisfaction.


for obvious reasons you don't.

you are probably lean towards "older members prioritizing theory"  because you have been a member since 2014 and due to your untrustworthy actions you are way too far form being neither trusted nor on DT while some people have proven themselves both wise in terms of giving feedback and trading in under a year, you and many other members are  perfect examples of why older does not always mean better.

same here, also here > https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=trust;dt  he still (1) despite the negative count in the Hierarchical view.

I think it takes time for these things to show up.

edit: it's showing 41: -0 / +5 now

I have no comments about what's going on between you and others, as a matter of fact I do trust you a lot, and i do trust some people whom you don't trust and some people that don't trust you and i guess that's normal despite how messed up it looks.

but the quoted statement above is wrong at it's best.

here is a list of 78 confirmed scammers > https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3486346.msg36123932#msg36123932

more than 90% of them were never tagged by the "older more established members " but rather by the "new comers" despite the fact that many of them have been scamming the forum long before the new system was implemented.

not saying this because I am a "new comer" DT member but i do not seem to understand why does older has to mean better judgment.

yes i have no clue about the past of this forum, don't know what did TMAN do to who and why does Lauda  not trust you and all that drama, and i honestly don't care , and I don't need to know all that shit to tag scammers.

let alone the simple fact that a few DT members alone can never handle a couple of hundreds if not thousands scammers coming in every week.


 

nothing out of the ordinary , just a quick hack  " how to change untrusted feedback to trusted feedback". he forgot to add 4 members who gave him positive feedback tho, maybe because the risked BTC amount was not high enough.

his sent feedback is even worse.

this guy with no doubt does not deserve to be a DT member.

depending on how bad the stuff he/she did were, if it's just a minor shity move that did not result in people losing money of any scam related, and that member has changed since then and became somehow a good member for the community, i think you should just let it pass.

looking at your feedback you seem to have changed from an "account seller" and an "extremely annoying" person to a good trusted member, so again , just use your best judgment.

This is probably it for the week, we should now have low volume,not much movement to either side , we will probably go down a hundred or two every day from now till next week, just to draw a sort of bull flag, then break it towards 5600$-5700$ , then we will probably enter a bear market again for about 6-8 weeks till 3400$-3600$ (200sma on the weekly) and if that 200sma holds "again", we will probably enter the new bull market that will go on for years till 80-100k.

let's see if we do hit 5600$ the a few coming days  and bounce back, then 2014-2015 charts will have more weight than ever.

but sir! how are you going to promote  plagiarized "Maya shitcoin " then ?

when you join the "merit cycling club"  , kidding .

you get merit for posing high quality content, usually by providing answers and solution for questions and problems raised by other members , but that's not all , in general any informative , well structured post has a potential of receiving merit.

that's Merit, but the tittle states Smerit, which = merit received / 2.  so for every 2 merit you receive you get 1 Smerit which you can cycle  send to another member whom will receive 0.5 Smerit for it.

These guys deserve more than just merit, no debate is required  for that matter.

but i do not think merit should be put as a reward for doing something specific like that, there are many scam and spam busters who just tag users instead of posting, how are you going to reward those members ?

Most people have this sort of dream where they can actually live off the internet in general, it all goes well until it does not, the forum and crypto in general are still sort of amateur, just like anything else in life, you may get lucky here and there , but as things develop only those who are actually experienced at something will end up making the majority of the money, so if you are just an average Joe, chances are you going to stick to your everyday's job till you retire.

I personally make more money mining and trading bitcoin than i make from my average IT related job, in fact if i quit my job today and invest all my time and effort in crypto, i could make 2-3 times more income, but then i'd be stupid, if crypto goes south i would be broke and will have to start all over after having lost all my clients and skills, things will be worse than ever.

TL;DR : unless you have a good amount of reserves, then living off the forum and crypto in general is too risky, there is nothing wrong with some extra income from signature campaign or trading goods and services, but don't go balls deep, just in case!

I am willing to take a vouch copy , I do not have a particular use for any custom firmware, don't really care about power consumption since my power is free, but i am willing to make a review on your "modified" firmware. pm me if you are interested.

not sure if this is a proper way to reward alt busters, i also think spending merit this way could very likely reduce your chances of becoming a merit source.

don't get me wrong tho, the work you do is highly appreciated,
