Thanks for your input. I heard that it was possible so that is why I asked.

Hi, I'm looking to mine a scrypt coin using Ubuntu and CGMiner on a Parallella cluster. I am due to recieve one after 5/8/14 once the pre-order builds are complete. So perhaps soon after that.  I wanted to test out the cluster computer to see if it could scrypt coin mine. Where can I get some help, with payment to get it up and running? I've done very little mining, only SHA-256 type with Bitcoin and Terracoin. Thanks, Miner2049 |

Hi, I was wondering how would I configure cgminer or any miner to work on the parallella computer using ubuntu?
I've ordered a cluster of 4 and I'm awaiting shipping. I think it will be an interesting parallel computer, even if it doesn't become useful as a script miner.
Thanks,
Miner2049

down again? I can not access the site for a day, I think.
I couldn't access it at all on the weekend. It was down the weekend of 2/16 until 2/19 when I got paid, then it went down again and hasn't been up since. |

Dear Friends, Lovers, and Enemies,
First off. Sorry for the scare. and believe me it was a SCARE - we had to refund over 200k and we were happy to do it because we claimed from day one that we will honor any refund request until we go into production and we meant it. And As crazy as fuck as it is to say so , we will sill honor it. We took multiple 20k+ refunds left and right without batting and eye lash because we believe in this project and we know we will be releasing our bASIC Bitcoin mining units sooner than everyone else, especially our good friends BFL.
Love us or hate us, I have some good friends who are original Bitcoin "old money" and they gave us the additional funding we need to finish the chip fab / packaging and take this thing into production. (THANK GOD!)
we WILL be shipping bASIC bitcoin mining devices in March 2013 and I am willing to put my own money against anyone who says otherwise.
The Design is done baby. The chips will be state-side as soon as Chinese New Year is over and for those who could not stomach the wait I don't blame you but I'm sorry to say you lost you place in line my friends.
March may seem a long time away as we all have ASIC blue balls right now, but its really not that far away, and I salute and congratulate all of you who have had the testicular fortitude to stick it out with us because you my friends will receive the ultimate reward. Sure Avalon may get some units out before the Chinese new year but that is sure to be a very limited number. On the other hand our assembly house has an unlimited assembly capacity and as soon as the Chinese new year ends we will have 16,000 freshly fabbed and packaged ASIC chips and we will be assembling those PCB's at FULL CAPACITY !We will be shipping ALL CURRENT ORDERS IN THE MONTH OF MARCH AND WE STILL HAVE ROOM FOR MORE ORDERS SO Get IN WHILE YOU STILL CAN! I stake my personal name and word on that. So hold on tight my friends because its going to be a wild ride in the month of March.
Now Let's Get ready to mine some serious coins
your friend always "cablepair"
Tom https://www.btcfpga.com/forum/index.php?topic=1045.0It seems that this post was a fake as posted by cablepair. https://www.btcfpga.com/forum/index.php?topic=1048.0First I want everyone to know - that all that nonsense that was posted on the Bitcointalk forum last night was not me. In fact I have not been on that forum in quite a while. My forum account was compromised and some people had some fun with it. I can't even get into the account now - so I am assuming that the admins checked the IP address and realized it was not me posting like a madman and locked my account for me. Either that or the intruder changed the password on me. Either way please DO NOT trust or believe anything that has been or is being posted by my Bitcointalk forum account. I plan to email theymos in a few moments to get my account back - I will update you when I once again have control over the account. Many people have contacted me about buying these 16,000 chips - God I wished I had them, but I am sorry that post was not made by me and I do not have 16,000 chips to sell. I have to pay the second part of the deposit to receive the chips and I am not sure I will even be able to do that - although I am not giving up on the notion. I decided to not accept the loan that was offered to me to keep this company going. With a 90% refund rate there really is no point. EVERY SINGLE CUSTOMER WILL BE REFUNDED. PERIOD. I have the list of BTC Refunds and should be making those today. All other CC orders will automatically be refunded today. I hope you can please accept my deep apologies, I thought I could pull this off but it was just too much of an undertaking for me, I feel ashamed and embarrassed and I am so sorry that I could not come through for you. Everyone will receive their refunds. As a matter of fact I am starting on them now. This will take a little time, we are talking thousands of refunds. I wish there was just a "refund all" button but unfortunately there is not one and I have to do this manually. this forum will be locked from this point forward - if I need to tell you anything else I will post again otherwise you will not hear from me - your refund will come automatically and theres no reason for communication. |

LOL! I love his explanation. If people start to get them, then I'll get one. |

I've been following this thread since Christmas and I checked the website today. From my end here in the states, I'm not able to pull up the website. I hope that the scammers have closed up shop and realize that the forum was on to them.

I for one would be very interested to see ASICS tested on Terracoin. It would drive the difficulty up like crazy (but thats inevitable) but because of the 2 minute block interval the Difficulty would settle again after a MUCH MUCH shorter time then Bitcoin.
Why not?
It would be interesting to see if the ASIC miners would work on TRC mining. But in the end why would you use an ASIC to mine TRC instead of on BTC's and make money? |

Inspired by Phinnaeus Gage Chicago thread and adamstgBit Montreal thread, I want to form a list of San Diego bitcoin users who would like to go to restaurants accepting bitcoins as much as possible. Once we have this list, I will start emailing and calling restaurant managers. I am also thinking if I have your email and or signature it will be more convincing...sort of like a petition. If a restaurant manager sees this list then it will be a no brainer to use bitcoin if the list is long enough. Add your name to this thread if you live in San Diego and also your restaurant choice. My choice is Stacked in Fashion Valley Mall since you can already order food via an iPad.

subStratta & FuzzyBear,
I'd like to thank you both for helping me figure out this TRC solo mining process and also using Coinotron.
I have a few TRCs and it's not much, but I'd like to donate 1TRC each to you both.
Would you please reply to this message with your TRC donation address?
Thanks,
Miner2049

I have 8 connections. How can I get more connections if this is not enough?
It could be you are still using one of older Terracoin clients, which had uPnP disabled. I suggest you to install newest version: 1. Exit client. 2. Download newest version from Terracoin website. 3. Unpack files (overwrite existing ones) to location where you have client installed. 4. Start client. Let it run for a while, like 15 minutes, than check number of connections. I did all the steps 1. exited client 2. Downloaded the new version the new Terracoin logo 3. completely removed all Terracoin files from the roaming folder and also the main Terracoin folder that had the client (i.d the exe files) (the only files I kept were the conf file and the wallet file.) 4. unpacked and ran the client for 15 min, but I still have only 8 connections. Hmmm........something on my end isn't setup correctly. Troubleshooting is a pain. but, thank you for your help again. I'm still confused as to why it's not working the way it should. If you want incoming connections, and your router is not UPNP-enabled, you have to configure it to forward inbound port to the machine running your client. (tcp 13333 for node to node communication, for terracoi) subSTRATA, Checking my router worked. I configured it to enable UPNP and now I have close to 36 active connections. thanks, that worked. So what is the likelihood that with difficulty over 9000 that I can mine a block with 27MH? It it's not worth it, which is the safest pool to join? too bad Eligius doesn't have a TRC pool. |

two orphan blocks in a row ? ouch ..
Other posts here indicates it could be related to networking problems, Some thinks forwarding inbound port to the machine running your client may help, dunno that much to tell though..
So does that mean that either I'm mining with a bad configuration or that I need to join a pool to prevent getting an orphaned block? Or is it something else? How many nodes - other wallet clients - are you connected to? On my side, it's usualy 25 - 30 connections. For solo mining, you should be connected to as many as possible so that information about block you solved propagate fast to many nodes. How do I know how many nodes I am connected to? if you're using the qt client, hover over the network bars in the lower right corner. I have 8 connections. How can I get more connections if this is not enough? |

120 confirmations should take 4 hours or so, do you see your mined transactions while using the console ?
(Help / Debug Window / Console)
then typing listtransactions
you should see your transactions with a "immature" type
This is what I got 15:46:14  [ { "account" : "", "address" : "17n5bS6GKYXuyLxkNe7y5mWtJ54JHH4rke", "category" : "orphan", "amount" : 20.00000000, "confirmations" : 0, "generated" : true, "txid" : "dd51117cf8803bf6e3b46ecf85641b4364cdbd22e643cade372f06641d1eb763", "time" : 1352508960, "timereceived" : 1352508964 }, { "account" : "Mined TRC", "address" : "1JpeWDubXaexR83wC5rwBdvPiSgVVJg3y1", "category" : "orphan", "amount" : 20.00000000, "confirmations" : 0, "generated" : true, "txid" : "07401996dbe8f50d0692d8ca236913a99ac25bed003b061e177e34856d7fd020", "time" : 1352658025, "timereceived" : 1352658030 } ] |

I just got home from seeing the new Bond flick. It was OK. I saw in the saw in the system tray location near my clock that I mined a 20TRC block. I'd like to donate to you and subStrata for helping me out, but I can't find the transaction. When I opened up my Terracoin client it said that I have one transaction, but I don't have an unconfirmed balance, or a confirmed balance. Since I've never mined a coin before, do I have to wait until it is mature to see it in my wallet?
Yes, you have to wait 120 conformations - that means 120 blocks to be solved after one you solved - for 20 TRC you've mined to become available for spending. It's a security measure, and it's neccessary, since mining is the only way new coins are generated and enter the Bitcoin system. For new coins to become accepted by system, they must be legit beyond reasonable doubt, which is what 120 conformations insure. Thanks subStrata, That makes sense. I thought that is what was happening. I know how to tip a bartender and a cabbie, but how do I know what a TRC is worth to 'tip' or donate to you and FuzzyBear for your help. Any thoughts what is commonly done? Thanks, miner2049 Hi subStrata and FuzzyBear, I just got my second block mined and so far even the first one mined the other day hasn't shown up on my TRC wallet. I took a screen shot of the incoming transaction of the mining block and it had an address that wasn't in my wallet as of yet. Why does the block come in with an address that isn't in my wallet? Do I have to do anything to let the transaction appear in my wallet? My wallet says two transactions, but so far no actual TRC value has been transferred. I realize that I need to wait beyond 120 confirmations. Will it take a week or more? Thanks, miner2049   |
