Hi there, got me started on a simple mining dashboard, just for my humble needs. I don't actually mine for real ("lottery mining") but I like to have clean stats about it. It's made with React and it's going to be as serverless as possible. Got a weird idea and would like to try it out. Now, I'm using old school cgminer and bfgminer. These guys have an API and it's the json out of it that the dashboard uses to show how the mining is going. In case you're familiar with the command: echo -n '{"command":"summary+pools+stats+devs"}' | nc 192.168.0.XYZ 4028Then you know what I mean, that's your help I need. I'd need any sample you could provide me with, from the fastest to the slowest (well, I got the slowest I guess). I need to see what different miner versions cgminer, bfgminer, bmminer etc put in the json, so that it can be useful also to others. I don't need your account details, so please mask your wallet address, userids, any personal stuff, but if you care helping me out, I'd ask you to leave the stats intact. I need to see coherent stats from miners having truckloads of devices and hashing at crazy speeds. If you fancy, please send me the logs anyway you want, as long as it's json. Thanks in advance, Ka. |

Tell you what, boss. PM me your info and I'll hook you up with a NewPac so's you don't have to worry about missing out on the fun with that ditch gear you ended up with.
That's unexpected and extremely appreciated. You're a true Gentleman. I'll definitely PM you, thanks, in case you can point me to a trusted EU reseller (I live in Europe) I'll definitely get myself an original miner. Thanks, Ka. |

I thought it was pretty clear - the people who copy the hardware and the people who break the cgminer license.
Your post is basically supporting them, so that's why I said the posts should be deleted ... and they are off topic since this thread is clearly about "GekkoScience 2Pac BM1384 Stickminer Official Support Thread"
Well, I appreciate you definitely made it clearer. My post was indeed kind of supporting a very bad practice. My original aim wasn't to support stealing ideas, more providing the sources others didn't provide. I wrote "was indeed" and specifically "was" because it has been edited since, sources are not offered anymore. Just a reference that they're bad clones. So let me leave this thread by apologising for contributing to stealing of copyright, thread hijacking, license infringement. Not too bad in one single post. I can rest a bit now. Thanks, Ka. |

...
Um, not sure why this post ... and the original ... isn't simply deleted. This new post someone supplying help to those who bought miners from someone that stole your idea, ... and violated the cgminer license ... which (obviously) is something that I'm certainly not happy about either  Then came here and asked support from the original hardware developer ... Um ... clearly sidehack is more tolerant of scumbags than I am  Out of curiosity, who are you qualifying as scumbags? The ones who copy the idea, the ones who buy the copy, me? In case you didn't see my other post, I kindly say thanks for the lesson to Sidehack and "no", don't consider anymore providing the source code to make them work. Not only because of the issues Sidehack mentioned, simply because copying an original idea, providing a binary and not the sources is two times bad. This said, despite all the hatred you may have inside, "scumbags" might have been formulated differently, or at least targeted directly. Thanks, Ka. |

Right, then... I do appreciate your post, sincerely.
To be frank with you, I wasn't aware it was a copy, a bad copy, of your original design. Only realised after buying which chips they used.
Yes, they look cool being cased that way, but I'd rather give money to the one who had the original idea.
I won't take the risks you mentioned. Thanks for the advice.
Ka.

Hello, I have two TTbiT devices, like Gekko 2pac with a built-in fan. Tried a pi3b and win 10 with all the appropriate drivers, permissions etc., gettin 'failed usb_init.' Device manager on win10 says all ok. using a 10 port A400 hub with 2a1 per port available. Have just one to hotplug & comes up with the above each time. Enabled gekko-2Pac as it is the same as the TTbiT.
Have exhausted trying to find a solution. Having read page 1 to page 37 and page 80-87 have not found any usable solution. Any ideas? Maybe a different enabler?
I know I'm replying to an old post but just in case... I got one of those TTBiT SHA256 devices myself for an "experiment". Was convinced that the producer, since publishing a "Windows CGMiner" compatible with it, sources had to be available to compile it for Linux too. Was wrong. These guys packed a device, hacked cgminer to recognise it, sold a few of them, never plublished the sources. ... I edited this post. Made a mistake buying this device. It's a kind of bad "copy". Sorry in case somebody else did the same mistake. Ka. |

Well, as posted earlier, actually looking for a Dualminer V1, the one that had stick shape (like an Erupter) and hashed both BTC and LTC.  Ka. |

I did buy a few Erupters (6-7, can't tell exactly now) years back. I took one out of the "drawer" weeks ago more for fun than anything else. Assembling the smallest Bitcoin Solo Miner I could. Onion Omega2+ running BFG miner, a Block Erupter in the USB slot of the board. It runs smoothly 2 hours every 3 (allowing time to cool off a bit), consumes max 3W when hashing, 1.5W when not. I know, absolutely useless, total waste of time. Yes, but it's all parts I already had home and keeping it in the living room annoys the wife, mission accomplished People hear about Bitcoin, cryptos but generally get lost when trying to picture a "computer" mining. This way I can show them "one" without leaving the living room. Was looking for a Dualminer as I lost mine and wanted to give it a spin on the same board. That's when I looked on Ebay and freaked out. Can only define them "scammers", you can't possibly sell something like that now, at a higher price than when they came out. Ka |

Hi,
posted seconds ago I'd like to buy one of those old school USB miners. While looking on Ebay for one I noticed people are "trying" to sell old Block Erupters and such miners at crazy prices.
Even 100$ for a Block Erupter that actually hashes SHA256 at 333MH/s... I mean, what did I miss? Did Bitcoin diff collapse overnight? Everybody thinking SOLO mining with 333MH/s is enough?
Asking just out of curiosity if anybody noticed the trend.

Hi,
got one of those Dualminer USB V1, the ones that could mine both BTC and LTC and crazy low speed?
I'm looking for one, colour black, the USB stick one. In case you still have one taking dust or in a drawer...
I live in EU and I'm willing to pay max 20€ plus shipping (we all know they're completely useless, need one for an experiment and lost the one I had bought years ago).
Thanks,
Ka.

Very nice! I want to hear what others say after checking code. If it is clean, I will add to the CPU Only list. Cheers! I'm currently cleaning up the scrypt-jane implementation as it doesn't compile nicely on a Mac. The ASM code makes the Mac cough and spit. I'm implementing another routine for scrypt-jane which should work better. After that will try to include the API of cgminer so to make it monitorable like you can do with bfgminer or cgminer. For GPU... Still need to look into that. Could apply to some algos but definitely not to others. Ka. |

I'll have a look at bfgminer, never looked at the source before.

Good day, I love wasting some money on mining on a VPS and was looking for a CPU miner that combined all the algos currently used by emerging altcoins. Seems that some newer coins use their own algos and we need to compile one for each of the altcoins not following the Bitcoin or Litecoin path. So decided to cook my own version of cpuminer that would combine them all in one single miner. Out of better imagination, I called it allminer. It currently sports the following algos: static const char *algo_names[] = {
[ALGO_SCRYPT] = "scrypt",
[ALGO_SCRYPT_JANE] = "scrypt-jane",
[ALGO_SHA256D] = "sha256d",
[ALGO_QUARK] = "quark",
[ALGO_KECCAK] = "keccak",
[ALGO_QUBIT] = "qubit",
[ALGO_SKEIN] = "skein",
[ALGO_X] = "X11",
};So it works with Bitcoin (who mines Bitcoins with cpu anymore?), Litecoins... All their derivatives but also Quarkcoin, Qubitcoin, Maxcoin, Skein and more. All the code was merged from the repos of the original authors. I'm merely the cook that assembled all together. I'll add other algos as they come out. Here's the repo: https://github.com/KaSt/AllMinerIn case you find this useful... I'm happy... Ka. |

In case somebody is interested... A new pool (p2pool based) is out there (ran by me). You can find it here http://p00l.co/ fee is 1% Take care, Ka. you pool not work( please check it Sorry but to me it looks like it's working fine [2014-02-10 13:10:33] 1 miner threads started, using 'qubit' algorithm.
