I know this thread is probably long dead... but hoping someone here has access to the latest firmware download for the SP10.
Bricked mine, managed to restore it with recovery and boot images, but its firmware is reset all the way back to 1.3 and there are stability issues with keeping cgminer running. Hoping someone has the 1.5 fw img somewhere it can be shared.
I gave you a merit for a proper attempt to use an old thread. Good luck. |

maybe the shift of mining away from China and Russia is coming. Could be interesting for us all. |

my $50 A DAY BUY was going to end on my birthday next week
was keeping it for 2 months. with the continued drop I will keep it for 3 months.
Very happy with my sale of $17000 worth of between 61-67k.
Taxes paid and money in hand for cheap coins. Dip tastes better at 38k than 42k
Maybe we go to 29k and I grab back all of the 17k sold between 61-67k price.
Personally, it seems to me that you should keep your $50 per day until you reach fuck you status or close to fuck you status. #justsaying. It's only $350 per week, and you are an old geezer who should be trying to get to retirement. You will thank me later... or perhaps not. Yeah may be best thing to do. |

mining in the cloud is complicated.
All cloud mining companies have a "we can fuck you at anytime clause"
So if BTC goes to the moon they will cancel your contract rather than pay you the btc. You will get a refund at best
and if btc crashes and burns they will cancel your contract rather than mine at a loss.
So for cloud mining deal to work you will need to hope Difficulty and BTC price move in such a way that you make a small profit.
Not a loss = the fuck you clause will be used to cancel you
Not a big gain = the fuck you clause will be used to cancel you
My suggestion is hope for a crash and buy some coins.
BTW we are down to 38900k
so buy 100 usd worth and then hold 300 in cash.
If we drop to 35 k buy 150 usd worth and hold 150 cash.
If we drop to 30k buy 75 usd worth
If we drop to 25k buy 75 usd worth.
hodl all of the coin above for 4 years no matter what happens.
Then thank me.
worst case is you only buy 100 worth at 38900 and it moons.
best case you get to buy all this levels you hold for 4 years and it moons.

I don't see the point, it is even not a good deal
well i agree i just got two a4000 for 2250 they use 236 watts and do 58mh each. much better deal but he is giving a listing which is spammy for this section it belongs in the marketplace section. |

I was planning to buy more new cards for mining but then when I see some reports like this it destroys the will and now planning to sell my active cards. The good thing is I already got the ROI, bought my cards last year January and the price of cards of those days were fine not like today. Also I already made profits about 1000 dollars, so it should be fair to sell my cards half the price. The only thing that keeps me from mining today is I get almost free electricity, I would like some second opinion if I should continue mining or sell my rigs before it is too late? I know the difficulty in mining is getting worst but at the moment I am still okay and earning for about 200 or more dollars a month.
never use words like or. sell all my cards or mine on ? is a terrible question to answer today. instead sell ½ the rigs at a fair price. you hedge the risk that way. you cant be completely wrong if you sell half the rigs. you are a winner right now. if you sell all the rigs and mining goes up 🆙 you feel like a loser. if you keep all the rigs and mining crashes you feel like a loser. if you sell ½ your rigs at a fair price you have to be 50% correct. much better play to consider a partial sale. |

Good read. and an interesting conflict in the story in that 55 watts a th vs 18 watts a th are both listed As the power used. a board with 25 chips burning 2.5 watts = 62.5 watts does 3.425 th if 25 x .137 is correct. 62.5/3.425 = 18.24 watts a th. now we all know fans and a controller and other shit = some power. But I can say 3 boards = 187.5 watts maybe a six board rig pulling 375 watts + other parts say 75 watts = a 450 watt miner that does 21 th is possible that makes it 21 or 22 watts a th which is better than all gear other than the s19xp And if set to be a 450 watt unit it would be a nice item. Well if 500 watts and 20th are possible at a good price the small guy will buy it. |

If I give both miners the same BTC address, what happens?
I mean:
(Mineadr)
38HRDQeecdfQnCyrnLEtKJGnEsrLG3XUCt
38HRDQeecdfQnCyrnLEtKJGnEsrLG3XUCt
Without a period at the end as you said and without differentiating one from the other, can something happen?
No harm at all, the hashrate just shows as one combined amount. Only down side is if one shuts off you will not know which one, btcaddy.1 25th btcaddy.2 25th one dies you will see which one. if both are. btcaddy 25th and btch addy 25th total shows as 50th and you do not know which shut down. |

@FP91G you do believe that the Ethereum POS is really coming and PoW mining will end? How certain are you? If this happens it will affect other coins as well because their difficulty will surge I doubt they will remain profitable
I think that in the 2nd quarter of 2022, Ethereum mining will end, or we will have more accurate information. If the current hashrate is directed to other coins, then the profit will fall by 5-10 times. I don't know what coin can replace ethereum, because over 80% of graphics cards mine ethereum. well my guess is sometime after sept of 2022 they will announce a decision of what to do with eth. if it goes pos in oct of 2022 I see the largest crash and burn 🔥 of crypto-coins ever. |

Sick as a dog, my turn maybe.
get well soon.. dude! water water water. and more water. and get the o2 finger meter cheap. if you drop under 90 o2 and you are elevated heart ♥️ rate like 110 find a doctor. if you stay at 93-97 o2 and you are elevated heart 💜 rate like 110 you are still fighting it off. check your temps. good luck |

If you don't mind, maybe you can also post your honest review in bitcointalk forum, since I am always interested in topic of hardware wallets and new stuff coming out.
I'd like to second that request, as I'm not going to see it on Newegg unless it's linked to here, and there's no need to click away from the forum when the text of the review could easily be included here--and I'm also interested in your review, philipma1957. It sounds like you've got a nice thing going with either Newegg or their sellers. I'm actually surprised when I hear things like you receiving free tech for honest reviews. From what I've seen in the Youtube community, I was under the general impression that "influencers" had to stick to a tight script when doing *fake* reviews. Then again, Newegg isn't Bitcointalk isn't Youtube, but I'm still a little shocked that a manufacturer would take the chance that a reviewer like yourself might tear their product to pieces. I've seen the SecuX before, and I was just immediately turned off by its shape. I do realize that pleasing aesthetics is way down the list of important features for a hardware wallet to have, but since Trezor and Ledger already make solid, simple wallets that are easy to use, how is a newcomer supposed to compete in the HW wallet market? Ans: having all the features and security that Trezor and Ledger have and producing a sexier-looking device. The SecuX looks like a woman's powder case or a stop sign. Blech! I ripped into a few items. A wd nas was crap 💩 I ripped it hard. most gear sent is good four star ⭐️ or five 🌟 . Like the corsair rm650x. which should show soon. I know the rm750x is a 4-5 star psu rm850x is a 4-5 star psu rm1000x is a 4-5 star psu. I ran all of them with zero fails. basically if you understand the gears limits and don’t exceed them they are good. When the 650x comes i will hook it up to a small 2 card build and test if for a month and get back a month later. Based on the other models It can do 400-425 watts on a kwatt meter 24/7/365 for three or more years. that would be a 4-5 star review. I know the cables in it are the exact same as the 750,850,1000 models just a few less of them. You can say it is a bias but I have used 20 or more of the 750,850,1000 models so I will compare them to the 650. and the 650 will have to do as well as them other than watts. say 400/650 480/750 575/850 700/1000 If the 650 cant do the 400 watts for months on end it would be a fail compared to the bigger models. |

20 cent power is high.
you need to understand 5,6,7 cent power is solid for mining ⛏
10,15,20 = risk ,more risk, high risk
Hi Phil, Try the UK, residential power is now over 20p (£0.20) pkwr, plenty of miners making money over here though...just don't mine what the sheep mine We are not bear yet. When bear is truly awake 20p a kwatt is always losing. When this whole market awakened the bull in summer 2020 eth earned 2 cents a mh when the peak hit in early spring of 2022 eth earned 20 cents a mh we are down to 4-5 cents a mh. if we drop to 2 cents per mh a 3080 will earn 2 bucks and burn 5 kwatts or 1 pound or 1.70 usd that would mean 2-1.70 = 30 cent profit. and if we drop to 1 cent a mh the bear will be roaring. hard to tell if we go to that. earn 1 dollar burn 5 kwatts means breakeven is 20 usd cents. but a six cent power guy earns 70 cents. that means the 3080 will sell low on ebay.
I’m not sure I agree with your entire premise. You seem to be saying that you won’t make money from GPU mining, but then only give examples proving that to be wrong and with an extremely short time frame. Then you pivot to saying that investing in crypto would give you a better return. Those are two pretty different statements. You also don’t figure in sale of the GPUs the way you are figuring in sale of the purchased currency.
I think what you mean to say is that if you purchase crypto when the price is low and sell when it’s high you’ll end up with more money then if you buy a GPU and mine during that period. I know which one looks more like gambling to me, but we are all free to have our opinions.
Og, Philip Let me try to explain my position this way. Assumptions that are arguable: 1) Resale price of the card (in a declining ETH, cards are less; rising ETH, cards sell for full value) 2) Difficulty continues to rise as it has for the last 3 months (this is the key) With 1) The current price of cards so high 2) Difficulty going up 28% over 3 months (which means I make 28% less now than I did 3 months ago) https://www.coinwarz.com/mining/ethereum/difficulty-chart 3) Income taxes eat 20%+ (forgot that in the first post, and I don't include it here, only makes it worse!) 4) High electric prices (my electric eats 20% of gross income daily, higher as time goes on) My argument is that it is not worth it to purchase a new card and mine right now. There are 2 scenario’s 1) Price of ETH is stable or declining 2) Price of ETH is rising Scenario 1 (ETH stable or declining) - With difficulty reducing income by 28% over each 3 months, I will never get enough gross income to pay back the initial price of the card, at some point the income minus electric will be negative, and then it is not profitable to mine the card. - With the card no longer generating cash, its resale value is not going to be much. - Lets say the resale value of the cards is equal to the amount not recovered from mining, you essentially break even. Scenario 2 (ETH rising) - I assemble the stated rig above for $7500 - ETH is rising, lets say 50% per year - Difficulty rising 28% every 3 months (if I did the calculation right, in 1 year I will make 37% of what I make now, 3 years I will pull in 6% of the first month) Basically the questions are a) Do I invest $7500 in a mining rig b) Do I invest $7500 directly in ETH a) Invest $7500 in a mining rig - A $7500 mining rig will have brought in (really) roughly $4100 by month 26 (Difficulty rising 28% every 3 months, reducing income, and ETH rising 50% per year (assumption). At 26 months, ETH diff has risen to the point that mining is a negative return, and you stop mining). - So lets say you are able to sell the rig for full price of $7500. You have $4100 in ETH, and $7500 in a mining rig, you now have $11,500. Invest that for 1 year at 50%, and you have $17,000+ in 3 years c) Invest $7500 in ETH directly - A $7500 investment in ETH at 50% per year would return (roughly) $25,000 in 3 years (50% increase in price/year) My Conclusions I do not see a clear reason to invest in a new mining card right now. If you can change some of the parameters like Philip has done - Lower priced card - Lower cost electric You will mine with positive dollars longer. My point is that difficulty is rising so fast that I currently don’t think it is profitable to buy new cards Yes if difficulty rise is higher than price rise mining ⛏ sucks as simple as that.

Seems like it aggressive hashrate growth has stopped because diff estimation is now consolidated around 8.6% for at least 24h now.
We're approaching the end of the period, that's why there is no more such exponential growth, there is only a day and a half left, for it to change the current 8% to 10% you would need the last of it to be even higher to compensate for the lower average over the previous 12 days. That aside, the current pace (24hours) is actually quite high, 174 blocks, around 22% higher than the average, it might push the adjustment to over 9 if this continuous and it's not just randomness. From the 13th we had 5 days with block time under and ~9 mins, there is definitely more gear coming online. We're penalty going to beat the May ATH and let's see, another 6% is enough for over 200Exa on average, another milestone and record, not one that I'm too thrilled about. In the long run the 200Exa is a big deal and hopefully good as it means investment in mining. |

14 x .22 = 3.08 in earnings
35 kwatts a day x 12 cents = 4.14 in power spent
net loss of 1.06 a day
based on 12 cent power.
Now if you have a space to heat and spend $$$ on electrical power to heat it you can write off some cost since you are spending it on the heater.

Hello Miners,
I am a graduate student at Montana State University working on a project for a company that has developed a product that refines natural gasses at wellsites for use with remote data processing centers (crypto miners, cloud processing units, etc). This product breaks down the hydrocarbon-dense natural gasses coming from the wellsite and gives the generators a fuel that is much friendlier on their internals and a cleaner emission as well. This would increase the uptime on your machines and put you in compliance with local emission regulations.
Is this product something that would interest remote miners? They would come in both a 1MW and 2MW model, but the company is open to making smaller/larger models. I would love to hear opinions and questions so we can field the best possible path forward to the company.
Thanks!
I have a person for you to contact. He builds huts with gas gens to mine. I will pm a link to you. |
