Have you tried using a different browser or cleaned the cache to completely be sure about the log-in?

also there is a very high chance the custom fw you trying to flush is a piece of shit " as simple as that" . try another bitmain firmware to see if makes any difference.

cards are never too old to mine every coin out there, the VRAM the 2 posts above talk about the irrelvant to your issue, it's only an issue related to DAG size of ETH.

your problem is most likely to do with security/firewall

here is what you need to do for test " at your own risk"

1- disable firewall/antivrus make sure NH folder is not in any protection mode
2- check your router firewall , if you tell me what is the exact router you using,i  may be able to assist you,and easier way to toruble shoot this , would be to use a different router.
3- use a different version of nice hash, try Lagecy.

Video quality not so great but good enough, very nice set up there, Solar is a great idea, but batteries are the greatest liability of the system. how do you handle such a problem?
7304  Other / Meta / Re: Massive abuse in the Russian section. on: January 17, 2019, 10:02:02 PM
Every community/board/section would want to have a DT member who will " protect " their members by tagging scammers, if non of the DT members here go to Arabic, Russian or many other boards, how do those local boards benefit from the current DT list?

The DT list now is the result of members who trust each other for a reason, if the Russian members feel like they can not trust or benefit from the current DT list they have the right to want someone they trust on DT, as well as the right to exclude DT members they do not trust.

I am too lazy to quote anything , but a few of the current DT members were discussing including and excluding some members based on "points" they see fit in this topic >https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5095156.0  which i see nothing wrong with.

while this could be an attempt to exclude every current DT member and take full control of the trust system, it still does not qualify as an abuse IMO. i am pretty sure the new system will have to go through some updates and changes soon. let us just see how things go, after all, manual intervention by theymos is always possible , so nothing major to worry about here.
7305  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: Create a block first offline and submit it to be the winner - possible? on: January 17, 2019, 09:34:49 PM
1. hash of previous block which I get only once previous block is broadcast.  I assume that was by someone else

it's not a hash of previous block, it's more like a record-book for all previous blocks,this is what block height refers to, the number's of previous blocks that are"included in it" which were mined in the past.

2. Some representation of 1500 transactions

this is false, the protocol does not force any min number of transactions in the block, the one who solves the block "chooses" what and how many transactions to include in their block, they can simply boradcast it with 0 transactions ( in fact it's more like 1 transaction if you count the actual reward transaction by the coinbase to the miner), the 1500 transactions is nothing but an average. the last block at the time of posting this had a bit over 2800 transactions.

3. A new hash made up by #1 and #2 which is expensive to get.

the new hash has nothing to do with any of this, it's a whole different new round based on the current difficulty.

Now the question is that majority of the miners should somehow reject my block - and that is what I am trying to determine - what is the algorithm that tells them to not accept this block.

ok the easiest way to think of mining is this , you go to a test with many different people, every 10 mins the examiner asks a question, the first to answer it, raises their hand and says the answer.

prior to the exam, every question has a reward box with a locker, everyone was given a key that can be reshaped to represent their answer, once somebody"  thinks" they have the answer, they will shape their key, go to box, try to unlock the locker, if it's unlocked, he shouts in the exam room and say i found the answer, they confirm that his key opened the locker , and agree to give him the reward.

now assuming the first question was 1+1 = 2

everyone now knows the answer, you knowing it before them, makes no difference to anybody as  the next question can be, what is the population of china main land excluding everyone from age 1 to 30 and 35 to 100 and those who have a white pair of shows?

the person who answered the 1+1 = 2 has no advantage over the other candidates just because he knew 1+1 =2.

the only advantage anyone has is the number of answers they can give compared to others which is [HASHRATE] , of course luck plays a role in this, someone might give a million answer in a minute and still fail while a lucky miner says 345345 people and turns to be the correct answer. but chances are those with more trials will beat out those with less.

the examiner/teacher  wants to maintain a 10 minute window for every question, so after every 2016 questions, the examiner takes the average time it took you all to answer the questions, if it's less than 10 mins, he increases the difficulty of the questions to slow you down, if it's more than 10 mins he gives you easier questions.

as stupid as  my example sounds , this is an overall idea of how mining works, if you at least understand the this exam "story" then you should understand that your theory won't apply.

all post have been reviewed.

Zurcermozz  > well done , you are doing great , but my advice, try to shorten your posts as much as possible,  i had to read tons of words just because i had to see if it was a merit or not, if i was just passing by , honestly i would have ignored it. try to sum up as much as possible , without excluding importing points of course.

Good luck everybody.

2 merit left

7308  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: Create a block first offline and submit it to be the winner - possible? on: January 17, 2019, 07:44:43 PM
you differently can create a block with your own transactions, you can even create an empty block if you want, this is not the challange that you the blockcoin puts you to, the change is to solve the block before anybody else does , you are confusing yourself a little here.

your theory will work perfectly provided that you keep your initial block secret aka " don't broadcast it" , as long as your node is going to broadcast the block you still have to undergo the Pow computation against everybody else.

Using my sub-par hardware I still manage to generate the key for the block.  Roughly 1500 are needed to make a block.  So approximately at present rate a minder starts working on the hash about 300 seconds after completion of previous block.  I will start immediately after so I will get several second head-start.  Will I not win and with valid transactions?

this is not how  it works, you do not get any head start, the "new block" has a whole different new problem to solve, just because you mined the previous block it does not mean you get any head start, knowing the hash of the last block gives you 0 advantage towards the next block.

So as soon as a block is added, I take that key and construct a block myself first as it should

what key are you going to construct ? !  you need to hash your way to the block solution , and in order to do this you need to be faster than the rest.



the TL;DR version is this

The nonce difficulty to "you" will always be the same regardless of what is in the block, be it your own transactions, mine , anybody else's or not with not a single transaction.

your theory is no different from the perpetual motion , if one works , the other will  Grin



No you will not.

If it was that easy to game the system it would be completely broken and useless right now from all the people like you doing scummy things to try and cheat the system

take it easy,he has a valid question, i have thought about this before, nothing is wrong with exploring the possibilities, when mining first started we had no mining pools, now they are completely fine . it's good that people explore and question things, it opens doors to improvements,  i wouldn't call this a scam or a cheat.
7309  Bitcoin / Mining support / Re: help in antminer T9+ low hash rate on: January 17, 2019, 05:06:00 PM
did this happen after a firmware update or just out of no where?

first 2 things you should always do are

1- reset miner.
2- change/flush firmware.

these are the likely fixes for this issue.

if it fails, then

3- try to reduce the frequency, some boards when over heated and over time tend to only work on certain lower frequency.

4- try another PSU  " very unlikely to be cause"
7310  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: My "mini" mining farm on: January 17, 2019, 12:03:17 AM
i am already consuming  well over 150 amps. the link you sent me only applies to USA old Electrical infrastructure.

for the the rest of the world ,it's a whole different story.

3 phase means this :

you get 4 wires ( 1 neutral and 3 hot/live )

between every N and L you get 220v
between every L and L  you get 380V

so in my case I have either

75amps on 380V.
or 75*3 on 220V.

depending on how you deal with the cables, you can have both 380v and 220v.

so what i did is this.

I bought 3 main circuit breakers
each has a hot wire attached to it.
N wire is shared by the 3 phases.

just in case my explanation is hard to get > read this > https://hotkilns.com/what-difference-between-220-volts-3-phase-and-380220-volts-3-phase-overseas-applications

they refer to this standard as being used in

... like a lot of foreign countries...

very poor choice of words to say the least, it's more like  like " The Majority of foreign countries"

7312  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: [∞ YH] solo.ckpool.org 1% fee solo mining USA/DE 251 blocks solved! on: January 16, 2019, 11:31:28 PM

Ha-ha. You are serious? 100/100
What about 6000/100?
Once upon a time antpool find 1 block with 1 share
Randomnesss
I think luck increases significantly when -ck connect 60GH Avalon Cheesy

 what's funny? luck is by default is 100/100 aka 100% aka flat aka not random !

randomness and luck decrease as your shares increase, why do you think many pools are able to pay in PPS? simply because they know that in the course of x period of time ,every share you submit has a luck of 100/100 therefore they afford to pay you flat for every share. small pools can't do that as their 100/100 could be months/years and they can't afford to pay you till they hit a block. while large pools say those who have 33.333% percent of the total hash know for sure they will get something very close to 33.333% of blocks per day/week/month/year.

just because antopool found 1 block with 1 share does not mean you have the same chances.
7313  Economy / Reputation / Re: Russian moderator Xal0lex uses alt profile to insult forum members on: January 16, 2019, 11:04:19 PM
forget about the last active or any other status, it ca be as irrelevant as it is ! , you can find tons of similarities between theymos and newbies  for that matter.

quoting the signed message is indeed sketchy.

looking at the "Xal0le" last post on "stak your btc address" (August 24, 2018) " before the deleted post"

and when this happens only 2 minutes after the account was created , it get's more sketchy.

but the funny thing is, why would he sign a message with his alt? it's a newbie account that worth nothing, why bother stake his address then quote it?

it's been so long, and nothing yet. let us just keep Bumping this thread every now and then, hopefully one day theymos will make it happen.

is this your friend's profile > https://bpip.org/profile.aspx?p=yla1974

most likely plagiarism ban.

also there is something strange, does "your friend" speak both Spanish and Russian or he used google translator on his posts ? because i see him posting in 3 languages, posts that involve some technical terms that you either be fluent in that language or use uncle google.
7316  Other / Meta / Re: Regarding the SpamBuster Thread on: January 16, 2019, 09:41:14 PM
In fact, that can be a good thing since the task of spotting spammers will be spread among different moderators.

if increased number of Mods helps solve the "issue" why not add more mods on Alts boards then.
7317  Other / Meta / Re: Browser Addon That Helps You Ignore Spammy Comments on: January 16, 2019, 09:21:05 PM

Reference for HoweyCoins: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3920469.0

Basically a joke from theymos that some notable members are promoting for fun (and not money)

 i know what HoweyCoins ICO is , i wouldn't be "shilling" it otherwise !.  i meant if we were to make exceptions for "dice" and "casino" and allowing signatures for campaigns you mentioned in your comment then this will open the door for ICOs too.

7318  Other / Beginners & Help / Re: Ranking up is Possible! on: January 16, 2019, 09:06:37 PM
Legendary, shall I think as a feasible objective for next halving?
Having the joy of the protocol being enacted for yet another time, being promoted to Legendary and maybe a decent bull run!
Only 882 merits left!

if you keep it up this way, chances are you will have enough merit to be a legendary member before required activities, unfortunately the activity is not something you can work on, it's annoying to say the least, and if a day passes without posting you miss the count. i hope that one day this "army" ranking system will not be used on the forum anymore and all the ranking becomes merit related only.
7319  Other / Meta / Re: Regarding the SpamBuster Thread on: January 16, 2019, 08:57:34 PM
unable the user from posting more than once in a single thread, meaning that if he posts a reply, he will have to edit it for updates.

This will make the shit posters migrate to other boards beside the once they have already colonized. as they will need to post somewhere, once the shity threads are full, they will spread to every other board, it will be a losing war against them then.


The captcha thing makes sense tho + 1
7320  Other / Meta / Re: Browser Addon That Helps You Ignore Spammy Comments on: January 16, 2019, 08:45:34 PM
I suggest you to remove "casino" and "dice" from your blocklist

there are also  ICO signatures with very good quality posts like the "HoweyCoins" signature.

I am not against any sort of signatures, but this browser is suppose to give you a spam-free experience and with those words being removed from the blocklist it will only make it less efficient for sure.
