No. And that would waste time traveling resources  . |

How about selling the FPGA design + code? Then folks could "roll their own".
Yup... Why not open source it... let the community pool it's resources and get these going. Yes, I think this is a good idea and have been planning to talk with the others about it for a while now. Been too busy lately even to send around an email, so I certainly haven't looked at OSHW licenses and tried to figure all that out. Any experts on that stuff around here? Any traction on this? I'd be interested. -Jay +1 |

I go to mtl once in a while, pm me if you need some help or something.
Just come to meetup when you're in town. watch the meetup thread. I looked around but couldn't find it (was probably right in my face too)... could someone link it? |

Nice stuff, but the real question is: Does it blend?

Anybody managed to shrink the code to under 6k LE using a loop of 5 on an altera device? I get around 7k and am looking at places to shrink it... So far it's 50% logic, 50% registers...

It's only logical they sell the chips since they can't deliver hardware. I wouldn't be surprised they're also vaporware. Gotta love that down payment.

Every freelance coding job should be done by escrow.
Escrow deposit
Upfront partial pay
Stage 1 pay
Stage x pay
Job completion pay
That way if the buyer bails out or doesn't want to continue with the request for some reason, nobody looses their time (at least that's how I work).
You need some plan of some sort else you're just asking to be ripped off.

What I do:
1. Are you lucky? (Yes, go to 4, else continue)
2. Can you compensate with multiple machines? (Yes, go to 4, else continue)
3. Pool mine.
4. Solo mine.

People jump the gun pretty quickly...
It's pretty obvious that they buy miners > sell shares (contracts) > buy miners > sell shares (contacts) which is a legitimate way to runs things (infinite supply of machines + same return for everybody = everybody is happy).
Are they honest about it? I can't tell, but people should calm down imo. It doesn't have to be scam all the time.

Sad thing is this is going to work with some people. Just like the viruses where it says if you pay X it will clean your computer. We should have an open source application for bitcoins that blacklist scamming website adresses and ips. Might do something about that soon, open source of course.

It's because the pools estimate your hash rate based on submitted shares, while your cgminer has access to the actual hash rate. So if you're lucky and find a lot of shares quickly with your constant hash rate, the pool will think you are hashing faster, while if you're a bit unlucky and don't find as many shares for a while, it will think you're hashing slower. As you said, it all evens out over time. If it doesn't, maybe you're creating a lot of invalid/stale shares.
Thanks for your explanation. Is it possible to solve this problem ? Is this all about being lucky? I think it's to avoid people sending fake hashing speeds. It is always better to estimate it on valid shares since that cannot really be faked. |

Different drivers give different results. So technically Windows will give different results than Linux, but they shouldn't be that big.
Mining software optimization will make a difference tho.

You can always ask here, nothing to lose imo.

5 posts isn't that much anyways. I lurked for a while and finally decided to make an account. Already reached the required posts in a day.

If they call people scammer without proof I wouldn't bother about it. It takes proof and afaik it's hard to create evidence out of thin air and make it look legit. If it looks real, then chances are it was a scam. With nothing to regulate the exchanges, it will always be hard to build a reputation. Some people will go by the scheme "legit on first run, scam on second one". You will never really know until big amounts of money are involved.

Hey I started mining with my cpu back then. I think it's a good start to see the basics, but people really shouldn't expect anything from it these days.

I'm new too. Most likely will hear from me again as I am working on software and hardware for mining, tho there isn't much left to bring to the table. All I can think of is "entry level" standalone farming rigs for multiple coins. But hey, feel free to pm me with ideas. It's all about ideas at some point.
