7781  Bitcoin / Mining software (miners) / Re: Dollemizer Firmware ASICBOOST Comming! [custom s9, s9i, t9 Firmware upgrade] on: November 07, 2018, 04:11:05 AM
the Miner will mine in the first 4 Minutes for our fee. Then it will mine for 200 Minutes on your pools and will continue from there.

This is equivalent of ~ 1.96 % of the Mining time. (4/204)

i noticed my S9 mines to your pool for much more than 4 mins. actually for 7 minutes. ! so how do you justify this?

First thing first, you need to hire a web developer. the sight is missing ssl certs, seems like it is pretty vournable to sql injections attacks, poorly designed, slow "probably hosted on your local pc or something".

so many things i can say, but the most important would be " Hire a web developer" before you could expect any one to participate in your project. GL

So i am a satisfied user of awesome miner, last night i wanted to purchase another license since i loaded more miners , and then i found out that bitcoin payment is no longer an option!.

it is a little strange here, Awesome MINER does not accept crypto for payment ! and we are still waiting for mass adoption  Shocked
Thanks for your nice feedback.

Bitcoin payments was supported in the past, but had to be discontinued because there are unfortunately no good payment solutions out there for Bitcoin that automatically takes care of all VAT complexity in EU. I'm constantly pushing my current payment provider, Fastspring, to add Bitcoin support because they had it on their agenda earlier. I've also looked at a number of different providers that do support Bitcoin, but none of them are good enough or even understand what companies in EU requires in terms of VAT features to not have to do manual bookkeeping of every single transaction.

It's of course a bit embarrassing to do not a good solution for Bitcoin payments but I do hope to be able to support it in the future again.

thanks for your reply, i guessed that would by the reason, but don't you think supporting bitcoin deserves a bit of a sacrifice? i know it would be a lot of frustrations to keep a manual record book/sheet but again to miners like me " where CC/PP" is NOT  an option for me it sucks !! i will stick to some free monitoring program which is not even 10% as good as yours to be honest, until i figure out a way of how to anonymously obtian some VCC to make the purchase.

Good luck bro.
7785  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: Rumor that Bitmain is going belly up! can't pay its chip builder! on: November 07, 2018, 12:31:27 AM
these were bitmain hodlings a couple months ago, BCH is almost at the same rate from the date of their leaked IPO documents March 31



that looks like a huge chunk of coins. of course assuming they still have all of them which i doubt.

I think the S15 sales will determine that next position of where bitmain will stand. and what is more important is the overall market situation. should we see another bull run soon, i think bitmain will survive at least by selling what ever worthless asics they are stuck with " assuming they will become profitable if prices should go up" . if we stay in bear market for couple more months. then it may be a fair-well to bitmain.
7786  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / [Off-topic] Bitmain will be releasing S15 and T15 on 8/11/2018 on: November 07, 2018, 12:01:54 AM
Sounds like we got a little snowflake here that is all butthurt because the meanie Bitmain took his Kleenex money. Mining is like any "business". You operate at the lowest cost you can and create scale at thin margins. I am a full time "miner". I do my own build outs. All set up and infrastructure. I wire my own electric and only use 3rd party hires for complicated network issues and pulling power to my Breaker boxes. Everything else I do myself. It's called "bootstrapping". You insolent little twit. I do this for a living. You just blabber on and whimper about it on the internet. We are all sick of you crybabies crying us a river about the evil Bitmain stealing your Lollipop. Grow up. You're all pathetic.

quote the part where i complained about bitmain ? mining WAS not like any other business, I roied on some Asics in under 2 months, what other business can do that? not even drug dealers can do that ! .

plus you ignored the real question which is how do you calculate profit for mining? i answered for you but you are just refusing to admit it. ok so let us keep this plain simple, you told us your power rate  5.5 cents. and we will be able to tell exactly how much will it cost you to buy the S15. and we will assume those miners you getting are A+ quality that will last 10 years . why don't you prove everyone  wrong and come back when you get your ROI ?

i am betting "whatever amount you willing to bet" that you will never make it. bitmain is feeding of noobs like you and that's pretty much the only thing that keeps them going , noobs who pay close to 200$ for shipping plus 25% tarrif fees and with high power rate try to compete in the mining market.

so prove me wrong and come back when you ROI. other than this whatever you say is just B.S like everything else you said.

Well if you pay .02 per kwh and no tax but "won't buy those ASIC",  then you're a fool. But go ahead and make your ideological statement. Brilliant.

first thing first you should invest some time in learning how to quote your b.s instead of calling people names, or bring their mothers into an asic miner discussion.

yes i pay LESS than 2 cents per kwh and I am not going to buy those S15s, how is that your problem ? Grin

then you talk about " profitability" , you must be a newbie in this field, you take the hashrate of your miner, paste it on whattomine and then say waw this is the greatest investment i will ever make, ROI in 6 months !! and 200$ monthly ! i am going to ALL IN.

you realize 3-4 months ago, antminer A3 used to net 8-9$  daily and now it is a door stopper ? antminer S9 did well above 8$ a few months ago and now it hardly makes 2$.

so how the fudge do you go about calculating "profitability" in mining business ? just because I have very cheap power rate does not mean i should invest in Asics when i already have bunch of them. most of which have got ROI "thanks to my cheap electricity" but i do not put all eggs in one basket.  mining is no longer an easy business that a newbie like yourself would invest 10k and get 50k same month next year. things have changed , you now have to treat mining as a real business, things are only getting more difficult for the average folks. 2017 is gone and it's never coming back. you need to wake up and smell the coffee.

Instead of buying this Bitmain shit, just buy and HODL the USD equivalent in BTC.

You'll thank me in two years.

Trust me.

Dude some people will never learn, come back in 4-5 months when you see everyone complaining about their S15 missing hashboards , and how bitmain dropped the price over 70% , and how difficulty is increasing regardless of btc price. the same people cursing bitmain for selling L3 for 50 bucks when they they paid 2500$ for it and never ROIed will be doing the same thing about bitmain S15. you just gotta wait and see Cheesy.
7788  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / [Off-topic] Bitmain will be releasing S15 and T15 on 8/11/2018 on: November 06, 2018, 03:57:28 AM
Funny that's what they said about the S7. People STILL mine with them. If your source is right, add in the 24% tarriff and the shipping cost and your S15 costs $1500.00 to your door. At .055 per kwh it make $7.81 a day or takes 6.5 months to pay itself off. I'm no math whiz but for $1500 I can get around 7-8 S9i's these days that make $1.64 at that rate. My guess is that the S9's on ASICBoost will do just fine as long as your power rate is decent.

you do release the world is much bigger than the U.S right? i pay less than 2 cents per kwh , and 0 tax on asics.  so my profit and ROI are pretty much different from yours , nobody pays 24% for miners except in the states " non that i am aware of". huge farms in china ship their miners in trucks  " next door to bitmain warehouse" it costs them NOTHING to ship and pay no tarrif + they get good discounts on bulk orders !! and they get cheaper power rate than yours.

and ya people still run S7 but can you with 5.5 cents ? not likely !

what i am trying to tell you is (every one has his own inputs of doing the math), it may work for some while not work for others !

I will not buy any of those asics nor any other asics even with the dirt cheap kwh i have. but it's a matter of couple weeks till you see thousands of them being shipped across the globe mostly to noobs that  will never ROI



I think he is off. If the Watt draw was that low, why did Bitmain release a 1800 watt PSU? My guess is 32 Th/s pulling 1600 watts ATW.

i do think he may be off in hashrate aspect, but as for power cons i think you are off, i am guessing 1400 or less , you know bitmain needs to target people who have only 100-140 volts too. and i do not think bitmain has any sort of psu that can supply anything above 1500w for those people. and ofcourse they would want to sell their psus as well !.

but still we are all just speculating here, the real numbers will be there in 2 days.

imo they will flood the market as they usually do, diff will sky rocket and yea RIP S9

not sure about that info but hashrate seems a bit too high no?

we shall find out in 2 days. i personally hope it fails big time to be honest. i am not buying any more asics and i still want my s9s to bring in some BTC

Some leaked info  Grin

Hashrate =34TH
Price = 1200
power = 1500W

these information was giving to me by a Chinese friend who is an loyal customer of bitmain.  I can not confirm/deny but usually his leaks are accurate. let's find out in 2 days.

    I am not new in this forum , but still suffers to get merits. If you think i am capable enough , please tip me a merit. It will boost my speed.



    No wonder you are not getting any sort of merits.  not only because you believe that POS is a winner, but due to the way you try to present your idea.

    see I have never learned English writing in school , it's very rare to find english speakers where i live, I learned what i learned mostly online and from watching movies and shit like that ! . and one thing I have learned "For Free" is that whenever you try to compare something to something else ,you have to address both PROs and CONs of EACH. you can't say

    CONs of pow are ********************************

    so POS is a the winner ! . really?


    now back to the topic, the way i see it, the best chance that any POS project has is being  Hybrid PoW+PoS , that might actually work. ! . aside from that POS alone is bullshit at its best.

    and as for the environment Banks around the globe consume much more power than every ASIC/GPU/FPGA combined. and if you want to play that environment card, then there are many other more important issues you should try to solve before you talk about POW. start with Make-up  waste disposal    Grin[/list]

    dude, scammers feed of greed and ignorance. you have to be greedy "justifiable" or ignorant "not very justifiable" or both  "unjustifiable" . ask yourself a simple a question, if he wanted to help you, why not just send you the money he is willing to help you with ? I do not know the guy you talking about , but i have been there long enough and I am 100% he is just trying to scam you. you can my words for it, or lose your 100$.

    ... but seeing such huge hashing power pointed to this coin, only shows that people have faith in it.
     

    Maybe it has huge hashing power because A3/S11 have no where else to go to?

    They could keep them off.  Sia Classic has no value, so these miners would be spending money on electricity for this gamble.

    well to me it seems that since people are taking a risk into mining a coin that has no value yet means they BELIEVE in that coin. or else why would anybody risk paying electricity bills for nothing ? now of course this is a high risk/reward game. so everyone should make their own calcs before jumping in.  

    Believe my ass. More like they have NO OTHER CHOICE.   Look at XMC monero classic.  

    Your basically mining coins with no dev team or support other than make a webpage and hope people and developers will decide to work on this project for fun.



    lol why so series bro?




    of course they have another choice. TURN THEM OFF

    simple logic dude, assuming you are already screwed by your S11 or A3 that have not ROIed yet. and you are in loss for say 5000$.

    what do you do? throw them away ! right ?

    but if you chose to take a further risk of paying say another 1000$-2000$ on electricity bills that means you believe that siaclassic may be worthy of something.

    your statement would have been valid if mining siaclassic would yield any sort of instant profit. in your example about the X3  people mining XMC ,DERO or any cryptonight based coin do not necessarily believe in those coins, but they mine them to make $$. but it is totally a different case, people are PAYING to mine siaclassic and they can't cash out on weekend. so unless they BELIEVE in the coin, then they wouldn't do it.

    Thank you for the merits!

    Thanks also for the suggestion on the youtube video. What I was thinking is to make such a template on my cnc machine to hold the board perfectly straight then program the CNC to go over each IC and make it perfectly
    smooth. This will require a few days to get it right, but will allow saving a lot of time and make perfect job in the end. Maybe will do in the future and make a video of the process as well.

    this will be risky as hell, i assume you talking about cnc router and not laser since you want to use it for cleaning the IC's ! . setting a perfect Z point on your cnc with 0% room for error is nearly "impossible".  you will need a 100% flat ground " maybe take an MDF sheet and perform an area clearnce with your end mill to get that flat surface" , but then again i doubt the accuracy of your cnc will be safe to try and risk the IC's.  philipma1957's idea of making a format for cleaning would make more sense, but you will need a laser cnc to do that. it will take sometime to set up perfectly, but will make your job much easier when sanding those ICs.

    should you decide to go for one , i can help . i have a tremendously good experience working with cnc machines.

    Zcash announced they will change mining algo in late 2019. While people could still ROI there Z9 ASICs within that timeframe(not if this bear market keeps crashing!) Everyone who decides to keep is basically left with doorstops, leaving only HORIZEN(Maybe?) and few other small Equihash coins.  Roll Eyes

    What're everyone's thoughts? Is Zooko insane for waiting a year to change it? how will that affect the network considering it will be fully dominated by ASICs then?

    https://forum.zcashcommunity.com/t/future-of-zcash-mining-circa-2019-and-2020/31737


    I doubt the z9s are built with enough quality to last till after late 2019 anyway.

    So after the Sia hardfork.  a dozen of Bitmain A3 and Innosilicon S11 became worthless paper weight.

    so last night i was helping a friend of mine , trying to find if he could still mine anything with his door stoppers ( he has a bunch of A3s and a few S11s).

    so after some research , I found this > https://siaclassic.org/

    you can also read about it on this forum >  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5056837.0


    all you need to do start mining sia classic is

    1- Download the wallet > Sia-UI v 1.3.5 https://github.com/NebulousLabs/Sia-UI/releases/tag/v1.3.5

    **make sure the wallet is v1.3.5 or lower.


    2- Connect to one of these mining pools.

    MINING POOLS

    You can mine SiaClassic in the following pools:

    - Poolin.com https://help.poolin.com/hc/en-us/articles/360018798311-Poolin-com-Announcement-about-Sia-Hardfork-and-Poolin-Mining-Service-for-SiaClassic

    - SiaMining.com https://classic.siamining.com/      > there is currently 25.4 PH pointed to this pool , so kindly support smaller pools .

    - f2pool.com https://blog.f2pool.com/en/announcement-en/sc_hard_fork_en

    -------------------------------------------------------------

    Sadly, there is no real $$$ value for Siaclassic, but the project seems to be promising, so you will be mining at total risk , should this coin became of a high value, you will end up with lots of $$$$ , should it go no where, you will end up paying your electricity bills for no reward, but seeing such huge hashing power pointed to this coin, only shows that people have faith in it. again DYOR and do it at your own risk.

    ** the links for the pools/wallets are copied and pasted from Siaclassic Telegram group  > https://t.me/SiaClassic
