Whenever an account's password is changed, everyone who left positive feedback on it should be automatically notified that they should investigate whether the account was just sold and if so, to delete their feedback that applied only to the previous owner.
I think you're onto a good idea, but it would get a little annoying for users who do a ton of trades (Blazedout419 for example) because they'd be getting a lot of notifications whenever a user they sent positive trust to changes their password. I think a better idea would be notifying everyone who left positive trust for a user, if that user changes their password more than once every 12 or 24 hours. Because it seems often when an account is sold the password is changed at least twice in less than 6 hours: once when the seller sends the account details and then twice when the new buyer secures the account for themselves. Something like that might be a better idea because it wouldn't be as annoying as getting a notification every password change, but would still provide useful information to users who have sent positive feedback. I too like the idea but I don't think we've come up with quite the right formula yet. Maybe rather than an automated system, several members could vote to activate a warning system as described. That way its getting human checked that something looks iffy or the behaviour has changed. I like this idea with some work could be good. Instead of like scammer tag, have a bought tag if so many say it was bought. Only count members above X level so someone cannot register accounts just to hurt someone. And needs to be reversible by mods if used to just pick on someone. I do think putting trust for X amount of day's is fine. I don't do it myself as I like to avoid arguments and I don't feel it's my place currently. But if you have the time to do this it would prevent sold accounts from doing most sig campaigns (neg feedback), and would prevent some scams. So I can see why it has positives. |

Hey guys,
I'm hoping someone will have some input to a problem I just started to have with my S5.
Yesterday I noticed that the red light was on. When I turned it off, I noticed that the unit was extremely overheated. I let it cool, then turned it back on. This is what is going on now.
1. Unit has some trouble connecting at first, but connects and hashes. No Xs.
2. THE BEEPER RINGS NON-STOP!! This is very loud and annoying.
3. The lights in the back blink red and green together, every few seconds.
Can anyone help. I would like to get this thing running safely again and I really don't want to set things on fire.
Beeping and a hot miner usually mean no internet connection. I just had this earlier today when I got my internet upgraded. Luckily none of mine were hot but the beeping was sure there. I would agree on looking at internet. I actually keep one bitmain miner not in my mining areas so I can hear the beep. It is a good way of getting my attention if there is a problem. So I guess I personally like the beeping when needed. |

same happened to most cloud mining (like cloudminr.io) at first they are paying but after sometime they will vanish  With a ponzi first people often do get ROI. They run it until it is best for them to shutdown. This is why it is so hard with cloud mining to pick ponzi's. Yes some pay today.... but does not guarantee tomorrow. Use your own metric to gauge ponzi. But mine is do they have mining equipment, look into brand see if true. If a site is not able to say what they are mining with, I would avoid like the plague. |

This is asked at least once a month. Yes there are a few games that provide VERY small amounts of BTC.
You need to remember BTC is money. Money is not free. You need to do an action that earns BTC in most cases to get BTC. So if a game had ad's yes it's possible small amount, or some someone is footing bill for fun.
But most of time you are better off with a signature campaign. You will make more if you have decent knowledge then any game pays.

As notlist3d stated goto bitmain topic and seek advise their. And a note for you in the future. Only invest what you can afford to be without. Investing into mining equipment is a tough game right now and I would not even bother to buy any more I would just buy crypto and hold it. If I had done the same thing when Avalon first released theirs Id be much better off and so many more people would be too.
I highlighted a very important part. You should only invest what you can handle loosing. A "lot" can mean different to different people. If your investing a "lot" and can get buy if you lose it then it is ok. If you invest a "lot" and it truly will effect how you live and make it where you cannot meet obligations then you went to far. It is not a steady investment like a stock. This is more risky, and should only be done if researched and can handle loss as with any investment. |

I'm new and I have a number of questions and I thank you for your help.
Buy a mining Bitmain AntMiner S3 + 453Gh / s with power.
As I can connect to my PC directly without router and configure it to work with the pool Bitcoin.cz and register me and I have the Workers. What has me with doubts is setup thanks.
I am not sure if I understand your issue. Can you try to say again what is a problem? Btw I think that Bitmain S3 is very old miner which will not generate too much. I hope that you did not invest too much in. I would agree do some ROI math make sure you are not losing money running it. It just is dated, but some places still are profitable with it. Can miner connect to router? Are you saying it cant? If not look into dhcp or a static IP in your set. Be careful though as if you mess up with IP settings it will need a reset in some cases. |

Bitcoin Difficulty: 52,699,842,409 Estimated Next Difficulty: 52,677,038,886 (-0.04%) negativeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!  Now that is great news! Only thing is all the S5+'s are in the mail most likely. So we had a decent amount of machines unplugged and now in mail I would guess. And they take cash via bank transfers. So if they unplugged 4.3x the 800th that would be 3.5ph or a full 1% drop . I still think those fires/explosions in China affected power to a farm or 2. We were +4% that is 14ph drop. Would not surprise me on it effecting a farm on explosion. They have shown the crater it created it is crazy amount of damage. The question becomes if any were in the warehouse and are gone. Or if they are just being effected by the electricity being down in some places. |

1. If you where buying 1 miner today which would it be to have best ROI without electricity cost ?
2. Will i need something in addition to mine except miner and PC ?
3. Average how long it will take to get ROI ?
1) Well if you have "free" electricity anything is on table. Just look as some take 220/240 and you might have 110. You will need to look into this. Also how are you getting free electricity? Most someone is footing the bill 2) Proper cooling, area depending on noise, right electricity, internet, etc 3) At this point there is no average. It is very different for different people. Look into bitwisdom and do some calculations. |

The truth is finding cheap electricity from a provider is the best. Wind/Solar both just cost to much to justify for mining.
Your talking about a lot of equipment including a lot of batteries depending on how many miners. But the ones who follow the cheap electricity vs trying to do solar/wind are the ones who win.

I will give you honest answers. If you are living in a dorm it will be a pain. Even quiet miners put out heat. So you would need to go with quiet and remain small.
If in apartments you have much more choices. If you have a max electricity price with student apartment and have an extra room go for it. I myself had roommates so did not have that extra rooms. And I was not a jerk so I did not mine and raise my roomates rates.
Also before doing it check your contract. And yes they can be long and boring. But I bet if they do a room check and find a bunch of machines they will not like it. Might put a label of something not scary as they do report to head of housing apartments if looks to funny. The one i was in last checked every few months that it still looked decent, and you were not tearing up the place.

ROI rate may vary as the Price may change/vary from the time you calculated the ROI.
In BTC we are much dependent on the rate rather than coins.
In 2013 the price was somewhere 1000$ per BTC means 0.1BTC can buy you much stuffs and was much effective at that time.
I corrected your error 2003 should read 2013 as BTC was invented in 2009 And it sure has changed. I got into it in the GPU day's. I can remember the 30 and 90 day ROI's. How do I miss those ROI's. GPU's even were jacked up on price so many miners were buying. Was crazy day's back then. |

yeah im curious how this turns out, seems like it would only be useful as a fun way to light up the house or office..
I would put one in one of my mining areas for fun. I think it would be a neat toy. I don't expect these to be ROI machines. Just fun miners to play with. |

The biggest thing in my mind is if you buy direct from bitmain you have 90 day warranty. Warranty do not transfer so if you buy from ITOP you have no bitmain warranty, unless they are lying to bitmain and send it in as if they still owned it and did not sell it. We provide the full warranty same as the manufacturer does for whatever products we resell , we charge a littlie bit more to cover the extra expense it may causes ,more payment options and better customer service . How are you doing this though? Are you having customers send to you or sending to bitmain as if it was you? Bitmain terms are here: https://bitmain.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/202661989-Limited-90-Day-Warranty-Terms- They clearly post: "it does not extend to owners of the product other than the original owner" and as first buyer and not official reseller you are original owner. They even warn of resellers may claim to have warranty that do not on sales "Some resellers may claim the units be qualified, however, it may not be." Can you please show us documentation where Bitmain say's your not an official reseller yet you may transfer warrenty? |

Shipped .. AntMiner S5+ Batch 1 × 1 2341 USD ( 9.141 BTC ) APW3-12-1600-B2 × 1 155 USD ( 0.605 BTC ) DHL Shipping fees 0.928 BTC Order Total: 10.674 BTC  Just a side note, don't you need three APW3-12-1600-B2's to run the S5+? Or did I miss something? Thought each third of a unit took six nine connections. Yes if you buy all new you need three of them. Some people have PSU's they have already ROI'ed sitting there. So he might be using a mix of psu's. Hopefully he did not order 1 psu and expect it to run. I suspect he did not, but I could be wrong. |

I should be going up from 50 Mbps to 1000 Mbps later this week if install goes well. Should know this week hopefully.
Is there any way's anyone is making money off their extra bandwidth? Just wondering if there is a way to monetize it if I do get the install later this week.

I use faucets when i have time to kill between my programmations or emails or forums answering or poker games...etc...etc...
Your a full member now Sir. Don't have an interest to join a signature campaign? Many users waiting for their account to became a minimum full member and even buying one but you are still not taking any signature campaign. Or maybe you have a secret bitcoin method that grows your BTC's.  I don't know if take advantage of is best wording. But yes signature campaign will be much better then faucets. You get paid for doing something you would do anyways. Just make sure to have good posts. If they are crap posts then a ban will follow. |

Mining and signature campaign. So was a good day. Love being able to mix multiple things.
Also a little on an altcoin (nothing huge). But I suggest for everyone to mix multiple ways to earn for best results.
