1  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Post card about MtGox from Japenese court on: July 02, 2014, 09:48:52 AM
I also got that post card yesterday!

Is there anything I have to do now? Do I have to send a form to claim (some of my) bitcoins?

Thank you!

I've had a read through the Mt.Gox site and there doesn't seem to be any forms on there to make the claim...

I think it's a matter of just hanging tight for the moment. I am, I have £200 tied up with them at the moment.

EDIT: I also recieved on of the postcards.

Initially had a few problems setting it up... (ntp and wifi.)

But now that it's set up I haven't had to reboot it at all.

Even when I'm doing tinkering with rrdtool to produce my own graphs with the RPi's temp on it.

My next graph I'm doing while I'm on holiday will be an rX and tX one...

Regarding MinePeon with USB miners:

Is there any limit of USB devices that it will auto-detect (other than the 127 standard USB limit)?

When removing or adding new USB miners do you need to do anything over than reboot?  (ie will it automatically detect that devices were added or removed and start using all available devices)

There is the unconfirmed limit of approx. 50 USB Miners which the RPi can handle.

When removing or adding USB miners you don't need to do anything. Insert one at a time, cgminer will autodetect it.
But for removal, well you could just pull them out but hot-plugging here really means HOT plugging. So don't do it, stop cgminer first in the console with

"sudo systemctl stop cgminer.service"

Wait a minute.
.
.
.
.
Remove the USB Miner
.
.
then

"sudo systemctl start  cgminer.service"

Done.


Neil,

Looking at this I think it might be a good idea to have a button where it stops the cgminer service for a minute or two and then restart again giving the user time to remove unwanted/faulting hardware.

Also maybe have a function that allows the user to update from a stable git branch or Minepeon maybe?

Now I'm going to have to get one once I get back from holiday...Great for displaying the info from Pi related bits to BTC related bits.

We've updated the USB LCD script with various improvements. Above is a screenshot of the new version running on my Pi under MinePeon.

I've also created an installation guide for using the script with MinePeon. Code and more information can be found here:

https://github.com/cardcomm/cgminerLCDStats

I hope y'all like it, and get some use out of it. Thanks again to Kano for the invaluable help and code contributions.  Smiley


You guys are awesome! Now I had to buy that LCD on eBay, hope is does not need more than 2 weeks to arrive from Hongkong Wink
My second one is in transit, should be here in the next few days.
I noticed (last week) when I ordered the 2nd one, that the ebay page had over 400 sold ... I wonder if most of those were to bitcoin miners Smiley

Crap, now I guess I have to get one to play with too. Grin
Do you think it would be possible to grab the stats from multiple Pi's? It would be cool to have it display the cumulative total of the farm at the data center. (I have VPN to the farm network there.)

I think you could though you would have to have a centralised pi/machine to crunch the data and  get those cumulative totals.

Thinking about it you could also display things like Farm wide averages, alerts on any that have gone down etc.

Looking good. Can't wait for the release.

As above, I would recommend MinePeon. It's pretty simple to set up and get running. They're saying that theres going to be a new update very soon with an overhaul of the web interface.

There's a thread in this sub forum if you want to have a look.

Brilliant, can't wait for it. Any ideas on when it will be?

I was hoping to get a version out this weekend, but I have been a tad ill and I have only just started testing stuff with any real earnest.

Also is there an update processes to minimize miner downtime? Or can we update stuff like the WebUI without bringing down the whole miner?

Not his time, normal you can just pull from git (I will be including that in the WebUI soon too) but there are a lot of changes going on.  Some of the changes are to the OS even and not a matter of git pulling.

Also have you thought about/are there snmp tools on it? Or is it something that we could install ourselves?

SNMP is there, it is not much use though on the raspberry pi (the network interface is not even supported because it is not on the PCI bus, the pi does not even have a PCI bus).  What were you thinking that the functionality of SNMP anyways?  You may have a use that I was not thinking of.

Neil

Well for the SNMP I'm setting up an Icinga server in the near future, and it's basically so I can keep an eye on it in a central monitoring environment.

EDIT: Just thought what about a mobile interface?
curious, what kind of mobile interface are you thinking of? the current web UI scaling well in a mobile browser? an android app? an iphone/ipad app?

More towards smartphones etc nothing really detailed, stuff like the basic miner details etc. More for those who's PC is either being used or something along them lines, or even if they just can't be bothered to turn the PC on.

EDIT: Another suggestion (Which might be in the works) is having a set of graphs for the RPi information. Maybe have a seperate tab for it, as I sure that a fair few people would like to know what/how their RPi's are handling it.

At he moment the WebUI is getting a lot of attention, AngularJS (http://angularjs.org/) is being introduced as a proper application frame work and it has mobile extensions.

Backups and restores are also coming up in the next versions as well as better process management of the miners.

Just wondering, what kind of milestones have you got planned for this?

btw I got mine set up with minimal fuss, and it's awesome.

EDIT: Just thought what about a mobile interface?

Good luck with that, taking out the 'drones' is like trying to hold the tide back. For every drone you stop, two or more replace it. To really stop this you need to locate the 'command' nodes and shut those down.

Only if you go 1:1 with it... when you tell them a DDoS is happening, the word tends to spread and they begin looking for servers. If everyone does exactly nothing about it, then nothing gets done.

The providers response tends to be hmmm.. I have a hundred thousand ip's smacking one IP here... Impacting my other business.. what to do.... Hmmm one vs thousands... Okay lets blackhole one upstream.. Other clients happy, one client unhappy.

Then there is the fact of where 99% of the traffic is coming from.
You start doing whois's and reverse lookups on things and get responses like this:
netname:        CHINANET-HB
descr:          CHINANET Hubei province network
descr:          China Telecom
descr:          A12,Xin-Jie-Kou-Wai Street
descr:          Beijing 100088

netname:        SPECTRA
descr:          Spectra ISP Networks Private Limited
descr:          42, Okhla Industrial Estate
descr:          Phase III

.in-addr.arpa. not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)

and so on...

and IF you happen to get a response on that, it will generally be a end user (cable modem or some such)

In short there isn't much that _can_ be done about it. The numbers favor the attacker.


If you have the IP what about doing a tracert to see where exactly it comes from? Though I'm guessing that may also give you roughly the same information as doing the whois and reverse lookups.

No, 2. The instant that 209,999 is found is when things change. Waiting for 210,000 is like celebrating New Year at the end of January 1st.

Really?!

What was your order number btw?

My order number: #0800-SUCK-MY-BALLS

What was your order number? Your SSN? Your full address? And your DOB please?


I'm not sure if you realise but that's a phone number?

I sure he asked for your order number not your phone number.
