Por ese motivo llegó al techo, el costo de ingreso es demasiado alto para su público objetivo, el juego exige 3 para empezar así que son 900 dólares. Es muy parecido a los viejos token, combinado un poco con los esquemas multinivel, en la medida que va entrando dinero infla e infla pero llega un punto que solo los que ya están adentro pueden seguir.

Hay algunos trader especulando como es natural con los token del juego, pero ya eso es igual a los token tradicionales, con el añadido de que mientras el juego crecía, la demanda también. Pero ahora que está en el techo, solo los que siguen adentro demandan. Puede que aun le quede algo pero ya dio la mayoría, quien entró al principio y salió ya pues hizo lo que podía hacer.

Ahora hay otro tema que es que a nivel mundial hay sobre-saturación de NFTs y "jueguitos" por el estilo, que tienen poco de juego y mucho de trabajo casi esclavo para los pobres "asalariados" que le trabajan a los que entraron primero y abrieron cuentas para que otros las manejen.

Pienso que al igual que la locura de los token en 2017, este tema de los NFT (los token no fungibles) también pasarán de moda, sencillamente son demasiados y el mercado no da para todos.

Mira que gastar 900 dólares por un juego tan aburrido y hasta tedioso, con eso cualquiera compra video consola nueva y varios juegos AAA. Lo otro es verlo como "minería" y eso es trabajo no entretenimiento, y a diferencia de bitcoin, esto es tanto o mas efímero que las altcoins.

Useless? I think you have a LOT to learn... But you can always sell it, its your loss (in the future you will cry for having sold).

How much you have isn't as important as how much the electricity will cost. That's what matters in the end. Europe is too expensive, unless you find opportunity with renewable sources or wasted energy such as from a refinery or oil rig.

Starting a node is painful when your internet is garbage, as in my country where it takes months so sync. It can't be helped, it is what it is. From that you can also guess the amount of people here using core...

There is no such a thing as "too many" nodes in a country, there is however a lack of nodes in too many places.

As i said in another thread, here is the kind of people protesting "against Bitcoin" in El Salvador:



Her argument? "There is no price fixing".

The cap she is wearing is important, it is the symbol of the current ruling power in Venezuela. You know, THE people who made the current world's worst fiat. So she wants the same thing in El Salvador, a coin that has lost 14 zeroes in 13 years, a coin that had its price "fixed" by decree in 2004 (a peg), to 1600 Bs per USD. Today, even with the USD losing value, you need 402036337000 per USD, but because they slashed 3 zeroes in 2008, and 5 zeroes in 2018, it is currently expressed as 4020363.37. BUT, next month they slashed 6 zeroes so it would be 4, more likely 5 by October. How long until they slash zeroes again? I give it a year at most. They think they have "defeated capitalism" and won with the infinite money making machine...

Who is exactly Arena and FMLN? The traditional parties that have ensured eternal poverty in El Salvador? The first calls themselves "Nationalist Republic" a "right wing" party founded by a General in 1981, the second is a joint of "left wing" communist and socialist parties typical of the of the 20th century.

And BOTH are marching against Bitcoin, but only because the current president is independent of these two. They probably don't know and don't care about Bitcoin, just that Bukele won the popular vote and now they "claim" that people don't want Bitcoin. Is it any surprise that those would resort to violence? That says A LOT of the kind of people this opposition is.

Opposition to freedom, from the very same State they claim is imposing on them, how ironic, it is because they don't REALLY know Bitcoin.

I don't care about Bukele but attacking Bitcoin is absolute ignorance or worse, people getting manipulated for the ulterior motive of them trying to regain power. Hopefully the vast majority knows the truth.

Esta bien y es hasta normal que durante la transición existan procesadores de pago, y banca etc interesados en mediar. Pero con el tiempo en lo que la gente entienda tendrán menos y menos relevancia. Las billeteras "custodial" son, una opción. No una necesidad. La banca va a encogerse, sencillamente el nuevo mundo no la necesita, ese proceso ya no tiene marcha atrás, incluso si abrazan las criptomonedas.

He dicho en otras ocasiones que no es de extrañar que algunos bancos se vuelvan exchange o tengan la función de ambos. Aquí lo peculiar es que hay un Estado volcado al servicio del procesamiento de pagos, usando la gente de Athena etc.

Independientemente de este hecho, o de que existan opositores a Bitcoin, sin duda que esto está moviendo al mundo entero. Ahora la pregunta es ¿quien va seguir a El Salvador?. Muchos países aceptan Bitcoin como valor, pero no lo consideran moneda de curso legal como ya lo hace El Salvador, hito histórico mundial que nunca nadie les podrá arrebatar.

Yo diría latitud y longitud, es una cosa muy específica de este país. Sin embargo, acá sabemos muy bien para lo que valen las leyes y decretos a la hora de la verdad...

Sigue siendo un país demasiado hostil para minería. Y la extorsión por funcionarios lleva años, incluyendo la parte de que se les va castigar pero siguen haciéndolo. Así son las cosas aquí.

What makes you think i was even answering to the previous poster? The fact remains: Con Kolivas did the right thing. In comparison, 2021 is almost gone, no blocks in a certain pplns pool. The people who didn't left in the previous block, cannot leave now without incurring in heavy losses, so pretty much the next one should be the last. At least a responsible operator had the decency to close the pool when the exact same thing happened, unlike certain someone.

Of course this is just my personal opinion, everyone is free to use the pool they wish.

You do not have this level of control. You can only indirectly affect those voltages by changing the power limit, the autotuner decides accordingly.

Weak boards that are starting to fail, will bump the voltage up because otherwise they don't hash, this is a process that can sometimes be catched early, typically when a chip is starting to fail.

None of the manual values do nothing with Autotuning enabled.
Braiins OS has no temperature checking, it will work without sensors. If none of the hashboards sends temperatures, the fans will be set for 100% unless set manually. Your questions are answered by using the firmware, use the sd card.

This is the only firmware that can run directly from the sd card without installing, if you don't like it just remove the sd card.


** SD method try before install ** (use this for testing few miners)
- Download the image for the micro SD (max 16g) card:
-- (S9) https://feeds.braiins-os.com/21.04/braiins-os_am1-s9_sd_2021-04-29-0-52331c5f-21.04-plus.img
- Flash the image from a pc (with BalenaEtcher, Rufus or dd)
-- (S9 only) move jumper jp4
- With the miner turned off, insert the micro SD card and turn it on
- Enter the miner with a web browser (find the IP with bos-toolbox listen+ip report button, or AngryIP/Nmap)
-- (Optional) Install to NAND from the System menu
- Turn off the miner
-- (S9 only) return the jp4 jumper position
- Remove the micro SD card

Si, a pesar que hay venezolanos de Dash metidos en el proyecto, pa'cá nanay...

Está claro que son transacciones offchain (o una cadena paralela) en lo que entras a Chivo., lo mismo que si usas un exchange y le pasas fondos a otro usuario del mismo exchange.

Si internamente usan Lightning o alguna tecnología blockchain conocida, sería interesante conocer. Realmente es una idea interesante para la transición, pero el objetivo final es no tener que cambiar mas nunca y entonces todo ese sistema de procesamiento de pagos no haría falta mas.

En lo que la gente se desacostumbre al dólar y se acostumbre a bitcoin, realmente Chivo pasará a ser opcional, igual que los exchanges y la banca.

Hmm this pool is finding about 5 blocks per day. What would you know, there are non chinese non pps pools out there that find more than 3 blocks in a year!

You are looking at obsolete information, anything from 2019 or earlier is no longer applicable to the modern version made with bosminer (cgminer was dropped and replaced with bosminer which was made from scratch using the rust language).

This feature is currently located in Miner > Configuration:



Which is written to /etc/bosminer.toml

If El Salvador serves as example, the most likely candidate is a country without its own national currency. A politician could genuinely claim to desire independence from the United States Federal Reserve (The case for El Salvador, where the other legal tender is the USD). Of course, Bitcoin also gives individuals independence from their OWN State, but this is generally not a problem when there is no national currency to begin with.

Or, its a place where The State hasn't that much power and its people can actually push them to adopt the new global currency.

No more exchanges or outrageous remittance fees. Where does this wealth goes now? You guess it. Adoption makes sense from an economic point of view, it will occur anyway, but those who act first, will obtain more benefits sooner.


Forget Venezuela, we (the people) can adopt it but the State never will, at least not with the current people in power. They are too happy slashing zeroes from banknotes, to them overspending works fine, "capitalism is a lie", and they can print as much as they want because nothing happens...

The manufacturer did not use an SDXC capable chip, so you are restricted to 16G or less from their documentation (32G SDHC may work).
There is the chance that the micro sd card needs to be inserted upside down.
Or, the contacts are dirty, or you need to keep pushing the sd card physically during the whole process.
And, some control boards might be missing the micro sd control chip for unknown reasons.

Sadly, there is some malware out there that triggers the efuses with the malicious intention of blocking you from removing out their malware hash stealing fw. Some spread in Russia, China, etc. This is why you must never leave default or simple passwords in the miners, or have windows PCs in the same LAN.

If you believe Bitmain's own documentation, APW7 is even lower rated for 120V (Max 7A vs Max 10A for the APW3++). Perhaps it was never designed to work at the lower voltage range in the first place, but later they figured it could actually work a little with the same thin wires?

1365W+10% = 1502 which at 120V is 13A or 9A with two hashboards (See specs for the S9j 14.5).
In short, no, especially with the higher rated models.

You are welcome to do your own experiments, but using factory firmware with low voltage is risky as it doesn't limit power. In China they don't use this low voltage so its not an issue there. It is especially bad in Japan which has the world's lowest voltage (100V).

S17s were done last year (via unlocker or sd card), S19s are work in progress.

As i said before, the best share should be returning in the next version, you could see it in the UI before the 2021 release.



If you want to try the nightly be my guest. But it has some unfinished touches and breaks btctools.

By the way, the current Hashrate has been for a while 6+ EH...

"Hiveon" (MSK) cannot be installed to the Avalon 1246, so, no.

You can use the Slush Pool app for the normal pool information such as hashrate.

A piece of paper with words written by hand (no printing).

Forget hardware wallets for COLD storage, flash memory loses its data after a few years. A hardware wallet adds security when moving your funds, so its good for HOT wallets.

Savings should go into a cold wallet, and you should learn how to make one.

Basically: Boot up a decent OS, like Linux, make a new wallet (Core, Electrum or simillar), write down those words by hand (no electronic devices, no pictures, no copy paste), copy some addresses so you can send funds to, then delete everything and turn it off.

Repeat the process but this time instead of a new wallet recover the old one using the seed words.

Now that you know how to make and restore cold wallets, move the funds there. You can send money to it all you want, nobody can't touch it as long as the handwritten paper is safe. You should make a second copy of this paper also by hand, and store it safely in a different physical location.

You need to understand the cold wallets are the safest, but you have to learn to make it. Do not buy a hardware wallet and put it in a safe, BIG NO. The hardware wallet manual will instruct you to write down those seed words for this reason, they are not a reliable long term storage medium.

You need a tester, check in your panel if you have more than one phase/hot coming in, if you do, measure AC voltage using the two hots.

120v is always less efficient (more wire resistance). And you generally don't want to be running more than 8A for example with the APW3++ (rated 10A) meaning 960W.

And yes, those PSUs were made in China for China voltage (230v) barely tested with "foreign wasteful voltages"), so if they say 10A is max @ 230V, don't expect halving the voltage would make the inside wiring magically support twice the amps. The PSU sticker usually tells you but some psus can't even accept that low range.

Now if you get 240v from two hots or two phases (208v) then that is good.
