Congrats to the lucky sellers of BSV at 0.24 BTC on BFX!  (That's kinda kills my joy of the 7% increase of BTC today.  ) But I don't really care for imposter/crooks and their shitcoins. Go BTC, go! |

Good morning WO OG! It is nice to see the price staying around $8300. Before checking FB and twitter, let's see what we have here: - Fired missiles at US base in Iraq, only Iraqi casualties have been confirmed so far.
- Iran threatens to strike Haifa in Israel and Dubai in the UAE.
- Iran says it is conducting a second round of attacks on US base.
- Stampede kills 50 mourners during Qassem Soleimani funeral.
- Ukrainian Boeing 737 crashes near Tehran, no signs of any survivors, all 167 people have died. Aircraft was shot down ''accidentally'' by Iranian air defense systems.
- US bans all civilian flights over the Gulf region.
- Oil surges by over 4%.
( Don't forget this is also a war between Sunni's and Shiite's, they hate each other for centuries )
"Rockets hit airbase in Iraq"... Bitcoin pumping.
By following this thread we learn not only about the past, present and future prices of Bitcoin, but also all the world news faster than by following facebook, twitter, etc. The rockets news for example wasn't showing in my facebook/twitter feed when I read it here. Jeez, let's hope this is not a start of a massive war. What I said ^  |

I am prepared to cautiously state that this does not look like rejection however.
It seems like we've violently broken the falling wedge pattern with high volume. The odds for this are increasing with every hour. |

Good day for Bitcoin. Bad day for shorters. $18 mil liqudated on Bitmex for the last 6 hours.  And the poor n00bs think the whole world is against them  |

My guess is 10451-10500. Hello
but it will have nothing in common with halving which is overhyped change of inflation from 3.6% to 1.8% which has negligible impact on the price.
I guess you meant future tense not present, since the last halving had the "negligible" impact from $200 to $20 000. Anywaw, we should thank you for your profound analysis. Btw, self made hero member? What is this? Meriting your own posts by alt accounts? Pathetic |

Ктo-нибyдь пpoвepял чepeз oпцию -benchmark, дo кaкoй эпoxи paбoтaют 4ГБ видeoкapты?
y мeня пoлyчилocь тoлькo -benchmark 352 (пpимepнo 3,75Gb), ecли взять эпoxy вышe, тo yжe выдaёт oшибкy(((
пpoвepял нa windows и нa hiveos

Hi everybody!
Has anyone checked through the -benchmark option before what era 4GB video cards work?
I only got -benchmark 352 (about 3.75Gb), if you take the era above, it already gives an error (((
checked on windows and on hiveos
and the description seems to say that it works until the 384 era
According to Claymore: Windows 10 internally allocates about 20% of GPU memory so applications can use only 80% of GPU memory. Use Windows 7 or Linux.I have 13 gpu rig with Windows 10 and it worked fine until I switched to another coin because of the difficulty bomb. Then the dag file was 3.3GB, and iI don't know how it worked, since 20% is 800MB, i.e. 3.2GB should have been the limit. Now after the fork on 2nd Jan Eth is way more profitable but I don't know how long the cards will be able to work with the increasing DAG. |

After the last fork on 2nd Jan, Ethereum difficulty dropped significantly and currently it is the most profitable to mine by far. But I am reluctant to switch back because I don't know how long the 4GB cards will work under Windows 10. They worked when the DAG was 3.3GB but it is now almost 3.4GB and Windows 10 is reserving 15-20% of the video memory. I don't know the exact percentage.

This is IT, ladies and gentlemen! 2020 - the year of the halving! May it bring health, good luck, love and huge bull run!

I remember I read somewhere that a Halving will eventually generate a x7 increase in the price of Bitcoin.
Problem is, I can't find a reference to where I read it...
Sounds good though, doesn't it?
HoDL!
I believe Bitcoin will reach 7x from the last ATH, i.e. 130-140K. What I don't believe is that I will have the mental power to HODL until then The price won't get there automatically. There will be many major resistances on the way. For starters, we have to break the two major resistances at 12K and 19K. There were many predictions that at the end of 2019 the price would have been above 20K, but this obviously didn't happen. However, after the halving this is more probable to happen. Considering that in 2017 we had 2 major resistance lines after the ATH was broken - 2.9K and 4.8K, I expect simiar resistance at 29K and 48K. If we are following 2017 pattern, this should happen sometime in 2021. Whether the price will reach and surpass 100K before the halving in 2024 is hard to predict. IMO, there are some chances for that but it will be temporarily and there might be another bear year of dropping back to 30K. But what won't be accomplished after the halving in 2020 it will be done after the halving in 2024. I mean, people now are more cautious and hurry to sell with small profits. Thus it is possible to stay longer at prices around 10K-20K. I won't be surprised if it takes more than 2 years to breach the last ATH and stay above it. In longterm it is better that way. The delayed bull run is much stronger than the premature run. Anyway, after 2024 the journey to 140K will be much easier. Of course, we are speaking only about probabilities, not 100% certain things to happen. But I want to return to my thought about the power to HODL. I have several selling plans in terms of fiat profit - 600K (which makes me a millionaire in the currency of my country which is attached to half of the euro), 1mil, 1.5mil, 2mil and 2.5mil. I wish I can hold until 140K, but considering I am 47 years old and starting to have some health issues, I really don't know if I will be able to resist the first goal when it happens. Since the expenses in my country are very low, I would be able to live as a rich guy with such sum. I won't be able to buy a lambo, but I may buy/build a luxury villa and continue to go to job (which is not hard, although low paid). And if the price falls 30%+ after I sell, I can rebuy with up to half of this sum. If not, I won't be miserable since I achieved my personal goal. But let be positive and hope for the best. For now, I continue to accumulate as long the price stays under 15K. After that my miserable salary of 850$ per month won't make the difference. |

Youtube says please pay 12$ mo. 3 mins ads sounds bit too much. what are you watching  in my experience its around 5-7 sec ads every now and then. LOL, 12 bucks. All bitcoin related vids. Today was the first time not being able to skip after a few seconds. Adds are compelling trading targeted videos for early 30's to mid 40's. I have numerous addblockers and behind a VPN. No help Anyway, rant over, it's time for a traditional Russian sauna (Banya) to bring in the new year! Have you tried the chrome extension adblocker for youtube? https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/adblock-for-youtube/I've got adblock but wait, there's a version specifically for YT? Also have privacy badger, uBlock, and another one I'm forgetting the name of at the moment. @ dabs, That's what I thought until I opened up a totally seperate vid back to back with the same add. Felt like they weren't going to let me see anything until I watched that add. Perhaps coincidence. Yes, it is specifically for YT. I think it is different from the adblock software. https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/adblock-for-youtube/cmedhionkhpnakcndndgjdbohmhepckk |

There is no such thing as being over invested in bitcoin. Pour all that filthy fiat into this imaginary digital gold token shit. Nobody has ever gotten rich, from not taking any risk Well, you are not "over-invested" until you are. I would rather NOT have to come across any kind of scenario that I am forced to sell my BTC at any time that is other than my choosing. Surely, once your BTC become sufficiently profitable, then at that point, you don't really mind that you might have extra value in BTC. Let's say that you have $100k in BTC value and $8k in cash, but you unexpectedly run into an emergency expense that is around $20k. BTC prices are in a dip, but you might be fucked because you are forced to sell off some BTC, at a time that is not of your own choosing, and worse if BTC is in a dip during that time, but surely better if your BTC are profitable rather than unprofitable when you are forced to sell some of them to cover your unexpected expense. Then as soon as you sell to cover your expenses, BTC does a 3.5x in 3 months and during a period in which you don't have enough of a cash flow to replace any of the BTC that you had been forced to sell during the dip. Sure would have been nice to have had other resources to draw from for that $20k expense, rather than having to draw from your BTC stash during an inopportune time, right? Sure, my example might not be extreme enough, but you should be able to recognize what I am trying to say... you could end up getting wiped out of your BTC investment. I have said, several times, that I had purposefully invested in BTC in a much higher than expected proportion than my comfort level (which is another way of saying overinvested) because I have wanted to feel a lot of comfortable in selling BTC on the way up. That is part of the plan to be able to skim off a few BTC here and there on the way up, and in that way, I feel comfortable with my level of overinvested. So, surely, overinvested is possible, and each of us has to determine what kinds of income/expenses s/he has going on in his/her life in order to figure out what kinds of resources that we are going to be able to draw from when some of the unexpected expenses might end up playing out at the most inopportune times. Yeah, things are going all good and fine and thinking that we have cushions here, there and everywhere, and fucking bitcoin dips 50% and then 65% and then 85% and we thought that the bottom was in at 50%, and in the mean time, we have real world activities going on that could cause us to have some unexpected expenses taking place at the same time that BTC's price is dipping and at a time that we have already used up a large amount of any spare cashflow that we had in our sock drawer.. that is looking pretty sparse during those times of need. Why the fuck do I have to pay that tax? Why did they store gasoline in the closet? why is my new lambo/leer jet parked in that location, and why wasn't the insurance up-to-date? Fuck? Is the world against me, everything negative happening at the same time? Yeah, shit happens. Especially if you do not adequately pee pare ur lil selfie. Speaking of over investment in Bitcoin, we should distinguish the two types of "all in". The first type is in terms of fiat savings and the second is in terms of net worth. If someone invested all savings in Bticoin but this is only 50% of his net worth, he has some options. In case of emergency and if the price of Bitcoin is below the investment point, he have a choice to sell some belongings or, if he has a stable job to use bank loan/overdraft/credit card limit. |

There are some good points in the new letter of Bitwise to SEC. Speaking of regulated markets, I wonder whether they missed to mention bakkt on purpose. Anyway, the fun part in the letter is "This is a standard that, historically, even the most well-regulated, arbitraged, and liquid markets, such as the U.S. equity index options market, have not met." This clearly shows that the Staff is manipulated by its chairman and is looking only for excuses. Of course, Jay Clayton being a Trump's puppet can't allow an ETF, no matter the circumstances. Here is a short article commenting the letter: https://finance.yahoo.com/news/bitwise-reiterates-commitment-delivering-bitcoin-150052523.htmlAnd the link to the letter of Bitwise: https://www.sec.gov/comments/sr-nysearca-2019-01/srnysearca201901-6563974-201035.pdf |

Hi! Could you give me an example of tuning AMD 570 for Turtle coin? More specifically, which is the most power efficient core clock/voltage? I've read the documentation and it said for the core 1050 mhz, but how low can the voltage go - 800V or even less? Currently I am 1150/850 but the power consumption is 20% more than CN-r.
Chukwa and CN/r are completely different algos, there's just no point expecting a power consumption X because CN/r draws Y. For your question, you just have to test your way to a stable setup, impossible to say where your 570 will croak  . If you have a power target you don't want to exceed you'll have to clock down the mem clk to throttle the algo, otherwise just continue to dial down the core clk and voltage and see where you end up. I know this. It takes much time to determine for each card whether the voltage/frequence settings will cause troubles. For example, after 2 months of running one of my 13 card rig with settings for XMR, one of my cards (actually the only 560 card) started to have issues. Even after cold restart the card becomes dead quickly. Since the memory settings for this particular card I left by default, I came to the easy conclusion that the 1150/850 setting for the core is too much. So I reduced the clock to 1050 and the card seemed to like it. So far 24 48 hours without errors. My point is that it will take months to determine whether a setting 1050/800 or 1050/750 etc. could be achieved for each 570 and 580 card. I just need a confirmation from someone that 800 or less mV is achievable for chukwa, and thus it is worthy to take the time and adjust each card. I guess I can get 100-200W less power consumption for a rig, if this is the case. Someone wrote here that he managed to get equal power consumption for chukwa and cn-r without sacrificing the hash rate, so my guess is he managed to stabilize his cards with less than 850 mV on the core. |

I find micgoossens to be utterly charming and a great boon for the forum, especially as he goes some way to uniting the disparate communities here such as collectibles, speculation and er giveaways. Happy Christmas and a very Happy New Year to all! edit thanks so much Hh have a good one I agree with that. Mic is a true inspiration with his sincerity and generousity! Merry Christmass and Happy New Year! |
