How did this thread end up in auctions!?!

Can a mod pick this up and move it back to lending where it's supposed to be, or even better just delete it as it's not useful...

I doubt it's going to fall any lower than it currently has.

Before the start of the price surge to about 16k, the S7s had maintenenace of 75% (when I bought them quite cheaply) and then that went back down to ~40% maintenance so it is possible this one will happen in a similar way.

Yes. When bitcoins price rises for a sustained amount of time.

The S9 variants are now the most efficient miners (as far as I know).

If you're interested, I have 8 s7 miners to redeem from HashNest (partners of bitmain) for (0.2BTC)+shipping. However, their quality might not be so good since they're second hand and they don't come with power supplies.

I mean if noone's interested, I'll just redeem them myself and could probably get a profit elsewhere.

Anyone got any interest in these - they're from hashnest as redemption miners.

I'd like 0.2BTC for all 8 plus shipping if possible (but I'll accept offers - negotiate).

0.025BTC per miiner that works out as.

I'm up for negotations.

The mining page is deleted, TheQuin just said so:

@TheQuin, it's going to take a long time for them to whitelist freebitco.in or they may never do. I don't think it's a fast fix to make.

The maintenance has rocketed recently as Bitcoin plumited.
I don't think it's actually possible for Bitcoin to fall in a general sense so just wait for it to rise and the market value will go up. You'll still get profit from it if you continue mining and hopefully you'll roi before redemption.

I get the same error on my phone without any AV and technically a firewall but it wouldn't say 404 it'd say something else. Did wetsuit delete that part of the site maybe.

Yeah malwarebytes is good. And you can run electrum on your raspberry pi, remember to write down your seed first. I think it's probably better to use the pyinstaller for that (I assume it works). There is also a way to make it so you have a watching only wallet on your computer and can take the RPI offline but that might be a bit overkill. I'd still suggest importing your master public key/extended public key into a Windows wallet if you use your windows machine quite a lot.

Obviously. Why would you pay people 5 Sat per half an hour if you weren't harvesting their data? Also, afaster clock speed, more RAM and Internet speed allowed you to earn more, coincidence? I think.not !

I personally use Norton by Symantec. To be honest, they all do practically the same thing, my nortoon includes backups and a few other features though which is quite nice for ~$30 a year for 10 computers.

This might be a useful thread for you to look at: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4450537.msg39787162#msg39787162

Remember that you also need to scan dodgy websites on virus total, not only the stuff you want to download. A malicious cookie/php code can transfer every file on your computer to a company's server without you knowing it or place a piece of tracking information in your browser or your entire computer and act as a keylogger.

Some antiviruses also, like norton, don't allow for .exe files to be run that have been used by less than 5 users in their community which does make you reconsider what you download when you run it.

If you're using a bitcoin wallet, remember to whitelist the blockchain and client itself so the AV doesn't interfere with it.

Running a sandboxing vm (I assume that's what you are referring to with sandboxie) is not a great solution. I'd suggest getting another computer, even a raspberry pi will do the trick, just to secure the stuff you want to access in sandboxed mode. Or use a different login as I suggested with non-admin privilages. Alternatively, you can make a strong 15-20 random character password and put it so that you only open it using "safe mode with networking" in windows as that will kill a lot of additional processes (don't ever use your browser in this mode other than to use sites you know are definitely safe - like ones you use to update your client).

If this answers all of your questions, you might want to lock this thread as these types tend to attract spam.

No! Nothing is safe, but windows defender is definitely one of the least safe on it's own.
There are many antivirus software, pick one for yourself. Also consider changing your broswsing habits, if you're likely to get a virus it usually your fault that you have it. If you use sites that are "too good to be true" or "too good to be free" then avoid these on your normal computer. If you really need to use them, make a separate, non-admin login.

If I were you, I'd write a script to run everything from the bitcoin daemon or the bitcoin-qt cli (or whatever client you're running) and then you don't have to keep updating it.

Also, if you're going to run it in a separate script (away from bitcoin core) that is going to read the data, put the blockchain in a different folder.

Yes.
@gleb, what's the thing with herb and Herb, how are they each pronounced?

I suspect it's from when you used to be able to mine dash from the site, it was probably intensive enough to get blocked by their firewall.

Well there's still a chance he might pay and the one neg should be enough.

@DarkStar_ as I assume it, all the spots are full, if so can you change this thread subject to full before this thread gets spammed for applications to unopen slots (unless you're still searching)?


So close to getting that spot flyinghellfish.

I can't see Welsh and cellard being alts of darkstar it just doesn't add up this time .

I'm not entirely sure Nice (with the capital) is a word in English it looks more French or something to me.

And Reading, as above is pronounced redding as o_e_l_e_o states.

Obviously.

I mean 51% is easier than saying "any hashrste above 51%). It's obviously easier to do it with 70% than 51%.
