Over the last year a ridiculous amount of hashpower has come online. It has more than doubled since it's recent low 2018/19.
Who is adding the new machines?
Is there a new chip out there we have not really met yet?
I am seriously been waiting for a big gun like Samsung to start bringing their first chips online.
There just is not that much room to improve on either the base layer nor the logic. Silicon is at such a compressed node there are minuscule gains for the last few years and sha-256 is just a simple algorithm. Maybe there are some being kicked out on TSMC 7nm (I'm pretty sure all that capacity is spoken for way in advance right now) but even that would be exponential gains. To get true gains would need as new substrate which it would be possible to see in this space but considering it would come from a company US owned rather than one in a dark nation there is small chance it will pop up in the blue. Similar to QC being on the horizon for the last what 5 years now? I dunno if some chip manufacturer wanted to get their own design up and running, even if it was the same specs more or less as the existing ones... a BIG house like Samsung could spin out a wafer or two and then bring up a big pile of machines all at once... I would expect testnet hashrate would have shown some interesting things as well... Bitmain just announced their new S17e and T17e, the sudden spike in hash rate could be related to "burn-in" testing of these @bitmain </sarcasm>: https://shop.bitmain.com/product/detail?pid=000201909090946242359e6UNfR00660https://shop.bitmain.com/product/detail?pid=00020190910142542689Q3nfwAtK06CE |

Just a little reminder:
Next halving at block # 2102400 in ~62 days, block reward will then be reduced from 5 to 4 for staking and from 1.25 to 1 for mining.
At next halving the coin supply will be short of 15mio G3N.
Happy mining and minting!

Here is the real research from the japanese study about bananas "According to Japanese Scientific Research, a fully ripe banana with dark patches on yellow skin produces a substance called TNF (Tumor Necrosis Factor) which has the ability to combat abnormal cells. The more darker patches it has, the higher its immunity enhancement will be; Hence, the riper the banana the better the anti–cancer quality. Yellow skin bananas with dark spots are 8 times more effective in enhancing the property of white blood cells than green skin versions." https://www.jstage.jst.go.jp/article/fstr/15/3/15_3_275/_pdfI just can't find the above quote in the document linked no matter how hard I search. Could you help me? You realize that the advice that the writer gave in the abc news article you linked was exactly not to listen to such advice from facebook, youtube and other lobotomy encounter groups? Yes, i already answered you before about my mistake, sorry. You can find it here https://afcr.org/en/tumour-necrosis-factor-tnf-in-bananas-help-prevent-cancer/I am not trying to call you out on your mistake, even so you repeated it by quoting something from a linked document that isn't there. I have a suspicion you don't really read the content of the links you post. The above linked article is quite contradictory or at least much exaggerating to the original research you linked. While we're at it, you certainly have made sure that the patient to whom you recommend to eat bananas doesn't have any kidney disease or otherwise impacted kidney functions, otherwise the accumulated potassium could seriously hurt or even kill the patient (oh it also radiates nicely, as all Geiger Counter freaks know too good, but these are not problematic levels): https://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-34225517For understanding what TNF is, I found these two links from the US National Center for Biotechnology Information: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/19137269https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2631033/From the above link: In regard to cancer, TNF is a double-dealer. On one hand, TNF could be an endogenous tumor promoter, because TNF stimulates cancer cells’ growth, proliferation, invasion and metastasis, and tumor angiogenesis. On the other hand, TNF could be a cancer killer. And from another link, that at least looks somewhat scientific since it lists sources for its claims: Tumor Necrosis Factor and Bananas
Ripe bananas have no anticancer properties (that we know of). They do not contain Tumor Necrosis Factor. And, if they did, it would not matter. Because ingesting TNF would probably not increase your levels of TNF. TNF is a protein which, if ingested, would be broken down before it was absorbed. The likelihood of any intact protein being absorbed is so remote it is completely negligible. 1
So, where does this hopeful, yet absurd social media meme come from? The Japanese research mentioned in the message was a strange study done on rodents and published in a very obscure journal. These Japanese researches, for some reason, injected banana extract into the peritoneal cavity of rodents. If you’re wondering where this is located, just translate it as “they injected it into the abdominal lining.” To everybody else: I apologize for derailing this thread so much, I'll STFU now. I just couldn't let this 'Banana cures cancer' thing and poor source quoting let go uncommented. People with cancer should get all our support and our love, but we should really spare them from the occasional well meant ill-advice of how to cure it as long as we are not really really qualified to do so. We could give them false hopes or even bring them in additional danger out of thin air which I sincerely feel is not fair to them! |

Did you actually read that link above? As I understand the article, you could as well cram a banana up your dark star and stimulate your immune system that way. Is this some sort of insider joke I just don't get because I am only following since few hundred pages? |

All most every altcoin has a higher onchain transaction capacity by a factor of 4X more than bitcoin.
None of them are whining the node hardware is not affordable.
Simply because most of them do not carry a meaningful amount of transactions compared to BTC, their low storage and processing requirements come from mainly empty blocks. |

Been there some time ago. I was looking for some cheap offsite VPS and tested a few I found on lowendbox.com and the lesson learnt was simple: the cheaper - the slower and more time unresponsive and more unreliable.
$2/month is just ridiculous, this has to be oversold massively to even become remotely profitable after power, cooling and housing cost (not even speaking about hardware amortization). In my experience the cost for a responsive, not too oversold VPS starts at >$100 per year.
Do I understand this correctly from your description: You want to use that VPS just for downloading data from here, then crunching it somehow and then re-uploading it to your own hosting server?

You're wrong man re coins gone. Liquidators cannot touch the coins in individual wallets.
You are right, but this is just the theory. Looking at the past events like Poloniex haircut, or Cryptsy, coinex.pw, Mintpal, Mt.Gox and many more exchanges that hit the dust, I wouldn't expect to get much of my coins back. A tiny fraction, if at all, would be a realistic expectation. Don't understand me wrong, I would love to be proven wrong. Agreed, I've said it before that I have waved my coins goodbye long ago, though I really hope and wish that those responsible for our losses will be brought to justice and punished to the full extent of the law. But that looks unlikely given how events unfolded since the "hack" which I come to believe more and more was just coverup for a too greedy manglement sucking up all they can. If it looks, talks and walks like an exit scam, it could well be one - even if it is technically better described by "bankrupcy through complete incompetence and greed". |

I object to Grant Thornton not distributing the DUO back to the rightful holders. Do you think lawyers are not going to just dump them on the market and line their pockets? None of the DUO disappeared in the hack, it's just that NOBODY will get a peep out of judgey-poo who isn't in the lawyer club. But I have to say that it looks like virtually nobody is interested in making a claim anyway.
I personally don't support blacklisting yobit, i think everyone knows well enough by now they likely won't upgrade and will try to rip off the users with it in their accounts, which is the justification for doing that.
The thing with cryptopia is that I'm pretty sure NZ cops seized everything and cryptopia never had the option to distribute unaffected tokens back to users. Then some assholes who were supposed to be keeping a backup ransomed the user list.
The situation is extreme. We have the ability to block them and for the holders of DUO, not having 118,000 duo get dumped on the market unceremoniously would be a good thing.
I don't think yobit really presents that much of a threat. I am writing blocklist code anyway for cryptopia, whether we add yobit cold wallets depends on whether the member of the team promoting this action can get adequate data to conclusively be certain their cold wallets are frozen.
I am all in for blocking the funds locked in Cryptopia, though I just think re-creating/re-distributing lost coins this way is setting a bad precedent. What would be next? Lost my wallet with xxx DUO at the adress yyyyyyy, please block that address and re-issue my coins? But certainly, block all those coins that the Cryptopia-criminals deliberately held back from us legit owners and reduce the supply by this. Dear Psychodad, Thank you for your feedback. DUO is not the first project to refund community members after the cryptopia Ordeal; other coins have done the same. (I am personally involved in one of them, Nativecoin). Moreover, the DUO team has only implemented this procedure after it passed voting on our discord channel (we have a voting channel to discuss such matters). As a DUO community member, please feel free to join us on https://discord.gg/sW8WPkP to have your voice heard on future developments. Thank you for being a supporter of DUO and have a nice day! Thank you for your kind words. I am sorry but since Discord always asks for my mobile number to verify me I have completely given up on it, I am at an age where people believe they need no KYC to simply talk. Also I still fail to understand why a simple chat application needs javascripts to connect to my localhost. Too many red flags in this discord thingie from me to allow it on my systems. I am probably paranoid to a certain degree but still the benefits of joining discord do not outweigh the risks I see in this platform and sincerely hope just following only here will allow me to be kept in the loop so to say. |

Dear Parallelcoin community,As you may remember, On the 24th of June 2019 the team issued an announcement to comfort the community that we will be taking measures to try to return some lost coins on cryptopia to their rightful owners and urged you to wait for further announcements on the details. The team is glad to inform you now that we will be opening the doors for claims to lost coins on cryptopia.  ... This looks like a very slippery road to me. I lost a lot in Cryptopias hack, but I'd never expect the coins affected to hard fork to refund my losses and I think that's a very dangerous avenue to take and setting a questionnable precedent. As a holder and miner of DUO I sincerely object these plans as it proves that this blockchain is NOT an immutable ledger. |

Hi !
Anyone know of a fix fo digibyted crashing every few minutes during sync?
Check your free memory, IIRC it is pretty memory hungry. HTH |

Some that just pop to mind: HTH edited to add CSC |

After Cryptopia going dark, is there any more exchange for ARI left?
TIA

How about for their GAINS?
Agreed if they can withdraw anything out of yobit fast enough before they set the wallet to maintenance - they should at least tip you. (Though I wouldn't pre-order that new Tesla Pickup just now...) I personally think your shilling of yobit is very dangerous as it is a very shady exchange with a non-existent support and countless wallets in maintenance since literally years. |

Be aware: Bitmark is a SCAM.
We've heard your concerns loud and clear multiple times. May we ask you to move on now? Dbkeys has manipulated me and dumped on me. I have bought this shit at 800 sats. I'm really angry and wanna protect others. This guy is a scammer.  I certainly understand your frustration, but dbkeys is not bitmarks - bitmarks is a community including all hodlers, miners and other stakeholders - which includes you and me as well. This thread is for all sorts of discussions revolving around bitmarks and if you open a well detailed and well documented thread in Scam Accusations board and link to the post here, most of us will certainly consider your statements carefully. But just repeatedly shouting in very big letters doesn't help you and your cause, it rather disproves any point you might have and paints you as one of the many lunatics here. Nor will it help bitmarks (I somehow read you want it back at 0.00007 BTC where it was in Apr 2018, to make a nice profit), Anyway, if alts ever pump again like in early 2018, bitmarks will surely be among them, but nobody knows that right now - high profit opportunities are high risk investments. |

You are a cancer. A parasite. NYC IS THE CURE!!! From this point on people should hold you responsible for any money lost in Yobit. I am sure you will be more than happy to recover any future losses (won't happen anyway, since Yobit is such a fine shop, right?). |

Hello guys! As with a lot of people here I'm brand new to mining. In fact, the ease of the Apollos is what got me hooked. My question is more pool-related and not hardware related. I am pointed to nicehash as a primary and litecoinpool and a secondary. I find that my equipment fails over to litecoinpool just about daily. Is that normal? Is that something on the pool side, or should I look at my hardware?
Unfortunately you cant mix multipools with other pools on bfgminer . What happens is that bfgminer accepts block updates from even secondary pools connected to other coins, so it screws up the main pool while mining litecoin for example. For secondary pools you have to make sure the backup pool is running the same coin your primary pool is running (ie if your running litecoin as your main pool dont have your backup pool connected to a mutipool or some other coin). If you want to run on a mutlipool it has to be the only pool configured (ie no backup pool, and you have to run off donation pool) for it to work correctly. I was in this exact same dilemma with my Apollos which I want to run on multipools and have backups configured for failover. I then decided to give https://github.com/Stratehm/stratum-proxy a try which does a great job for this purpose. On a side note: One of my Apollos crashed regulary (every 4-7days) and I suspected it to be related with the pool going down or being unreachable for short moments (and refused to reflash it out of lazyness). Since I run it over the above proxy I've got zero crashes (right now it is a bit more than 4 weeks without any hiccups). Also I can now just switch between configured pools with a mouse click, no restarts required. The only downside is that you need a separate machine for it (either a little VPS or something like a RPI), I don't think it can or should be run on an Apollo directly. HTH |
