Thank you guys, for me it is better than claymore, my rig 8 x RX570:
with claymore: 248.3 mh with phoenix: 249.4 mh
Similar improvement for my 1080Ti.

ZEN miner and holder too, wondering what is the official position regarding ASIC mining. Something will be done about that and if yes when. A clear answer will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
The Zencash team thinks the changing of the PoW is lower priority than the super/secure nodes and something else. So there will be no change of PoW in the short term.

How Abaout POS
This miner is for PoW mining, nothing to do with PoW.

There does seem a big volume of Bitcoin changing hands today compared to the last couple of weeks.
well based on this, you are someone who either makes random guesses or doesn't know how to gather information properly! not that it matters but today and yesterday was two days with biggest volume after a long time! as for your question you better stay away for the time being since another one of these misinformation and you will be panic selling at a big loss. I think by the end of the year, there will be more companies adopting the bitcoin. The price could rise as a result. I will buy some now.

Don't get nervous. Patience always pays off. Nice to see some green in my portfolio today lol almost forgot what that looked like!
That is true. I think most altcoins including the ETH or Bitcoin Cash are in consolidation phase. The price will rise soon.

Bitcoin maybe not, crypto for sure. Maybe no one of all known crypto will be the main or maybe all.. the predictions say yes but who can predict the future?
As long as the bitcoin keeps on developing and adopt the good points of other coins, it will be the dominant coin.

obviously, bitcoin will be a future money, already it has created a ground as one of the best virtual money, many countries have started thinking in order to allow bitcoin as a legal money, some privet sectors already has already accepted bitcoin as a payment tool, hopefully, in a few years Bitcoin will become a global money...
I agree with you in some point but then the it is not enough to change and replace the current money that we have. Yet, the progress is so good maybe it really takes time I mean years to take for it to replace and be number one currency of each country. I do not doubt bitcoin for its features because it is trusting. No one can predict what will exactly happen in the future but no one can also stop the success of bitcoin, it will be a big part in the future, however this is just part of the variety of money that we can use to transact. The leading money is always those who are controlled and regulated by the government, all payment system like bitcoin will always be behind. I heard the Chinese government is trying to stop the exchanges of the bitcoin in its country.

should I buy now? won't miss the last opportunity to the moon. I want to come with you
Yes you should buy now the price is quite low now, you just missed the $3,200 part but now it's $3,500 but it is still cheaper. Buy now as the Chinese gov't will be removing the ban after giving license to the following that will comply with their requirements. And besides McAfee answered the allegation of Daimon that bitcoin is a fraud. I shall start buying when the price drops another 5 to 10%. That shall be the bottom as there are still demand for bitcoin.

ETC == ETH is going to crash so hard as ETC rises lmfao lets keep it real gentlemen Etherum is Vitalik's baby .he is literally the brains of the operation all the fortune 500 companies are supporting his version ,whether it forked or not is beside the point now and not worth arguing over I am not saying by any means that ETC has a value of zero # but i will be realistic and say when they eventually find a good usecase for it and some adoption ,it will be worth at the very max 1/3rd of the real ethereum ........and thats a generous and optomistic estimate considering its worth about 1/13th now but i hope they both do well and everyone here gets rich/rich ER............ ETH value is zero it's a heist pure and simple ! Wall Street / Forex just found out about this scheme whereas ETC is THE ORIGINAL ETHEREUM PERIOD. ETC = ETHEREUM(ORIGINAL) ETH = ETHEREUM(UNLIMITED?) ~ ROLLBACKS / FUCKERY ETC IS ETHEREUM --- WHERES ALIEN HEAD ANYWAYS??? \_@@_/ #aliens So why the ETC price is so low?

who trusts this broken chain?
holy shit, they roll the chain back and all you dumb fucks keep pouring money in.
Some people trust the Ethereum.

it is the story of a bitcoin, it is not easy to convince people that bitcoin is not a ponzi, but we can not say 100 ℅ that bitcoin net of sekema Ponzi, Ponzi many who use bitcoin, but bitcoin is not a ponzi
An article in the financial times thinks the bitcoin is a ponzi.

That is entirely fine with me, but I'm purely interested in primary function as a crypto-currency.
Why would anyone be interested in a crypto-currency that has unlimited supply and can be easily forked at the will of a limited group of bagholders? lol thanks to you you get it . its not the difficult to understand isnt it . a unlimitied currency easy to fork and plans to go pos. sure it will fall in price. That is right. If the issurance is not so big, the price will also rise.

Sorry everyone, I sold my ETH for now, I'm just sick of all these forks. I will buy again when ETH is more stable
Be greedy when others are fearful, and be fearful when others are greedy!....... Warren Buffett! I try talk some sense into him, but is is leaving us, and is got full blown in to Zcash It is quite reasonable for him to leave. There are too many attacks on the Ethereum and there are too many problems in the system. This. You are all talking of fear, greed, moon and other BS but fact is: ETH has huge problems and weekly forks are not the solution. Your answers show me how you are just gambling users and not people really interested in the project. That is right. When there is no weekly/monthly hard fork, then we may be able to invest in Ethereum again.

I just wonder, why should anyone come into a thread and tell everyone, that the price drops or that he will not invest? Sorry guys, but I can only find one reason...
It is possible that they want others to sell the coins so that they can buy more. That happened early this year.

Hey all, so i had to re-install my ethereum wallet on a new pc as the old hard drive ran out of space.
I copied my Keystore file and have copied it into the newly downloaded wallet.
The wallet is taking days to fully sync, it's still about 1000 blocks away and never quite reaches 100%.
My wallet however is showing 0 ETH balance when i've checked the blockchain and it should hold approx 25 ETH.
Any idea why the wallet is not showing my balance and why it's taking so freaking long to sync?
which wallet are you using? the defacto wallet i would say is geth. to resync with geth its highly recommended to use the --fast feature to minimize the effect the spam block transacitons that went on for weeks will have. your balance wont be up to date until you are at a synchronized block that has your last transaction for that address. use a blockchain expolorer website and plug in your address to get and accurate reading of what is actually in your account at current block. "to resync with geth its highly recommended to use the --fast feature to minimize the effect the spam block transacitons that went on for weeks will have." If the --fast feature is so useful, why it is not default setting?

Some news from chinese exchanges?
What news?

This morning a ton of websites and services, including Spotify and Twitter, were unreachable because of a distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack on Dyn, a major DNS provider. Details of how the attack happened remain vague, but one thing seems certain. Our internet is frightfully fragile in the face of increasingly sophisticated hacks. Some think the attack was a political conspiracy, like an attempt to take down the internet so that people wouldn’t be able to read the leaked Clinton emails on Wikileaks. Others think it’s the usual Russian assault. No matter who did it, we should expect incidents like this to get worse in the future. While DDoS attacks used to be a pretty weak threat, we’re entering a new era. What Is DNS and Why Does It Make the Internet Break? Today, half of America’s internet shut down when hackers unleashed a large distributed denial of… Read more DDoS attacks, at the most basic level, work like this. An attacker sends a flurry of packets, essentially just garbage data, to an intended recipient. In this case, the recipient was Dyn’s DNS servers. The server is overwhelmed with the garbage packets, and can’t handle the incoming connections, eventually slowing down significantly or totally shutting down. In the case of Dyn, it was probably a little more complex than this. Dyn almost certainly has advanced systems for DDoS mitigation, and the people who attacked Dyn (whoever they are) were probably using something more advanced than a PC in their mom’s basement. Recently, we’ve entered into a new DDoS paradigm. As security blogger Brian Krebs notes, the newfound ability to highjack insecure internet of things devices and turn them into a massive DDoS army has contributed to an uptick in the size and scale of recent DDoS attacks. (We’re not sure if an IoT botnet was what took down Dyn this morning, but it would be a pretty good guess.) We are nevertheless getting a taste of what the new era of DDoS attacks look like, however. As security expert Bruce Schneier explained in a blog post: Over the past year or two, someone has been probing the defenses of the companies that run critical pieces of the Internet. These probes take the form of precisely calibrated attacks designed to determine exactly how well these companies can defend themselves, and what would be required to take them down. We don’t know who is doing this, but it feels like a large nation state. China or Russia would be my first guesses. This sort of attack is deeply different than the headline-grabbing DDoS attacks of years past. In 2011, hacker collective Anonymous rose to fame with DDoS attacks that pale in comparison to today’s attack on Dyn. Instead of taking out an individual website for short periods of time, hackers were able to take down a major piece of the internet backbone for an entire morning—not once but twice. That’s huge. If hackers are more easily able to amass extensive DDoS botnets, that means the internet as we know it becomes more vulnerable. Attacking major internet infrastructure like Dyn has always been a possibility, but if it becomes easier than ever to launch huge DDoS attacks, that means we might be seeing some of our favorite sites have more downtime than usual. These attacks could extend to other major pieces of internet infrastructure, causing even more widespread outages. This could be the beginning of a very bleak future. If hackers are able to take down the internet at will, what happens next? It’s unclear how long it could take for the folks at Dyn to fix this problem, or if they will ever be able to solve the problem of being hit with a huge DDoS attack. But this new breed of DDoS attacks is a scary problem no matter how you look at it.

Geth is brutal right now, switching to Parity.
I have the geth based block chain. If I switch to Parity, can I still use the old chain or need to sync again from the beginning?

That is good news. The Ethereum will also have a big conference in Shanghai in the next few days, as I heard.

I mean....I know that the difficulty going up means more ppl are mining, means better decentralization, etc. But FUCK! Mining profits keep getting smaller and smaller! It just mean the mining will be concentrated into cheap electricity places like China. It happened to the btc mining. No, I doubt that's the main cause. POS is coming soon, at least, too soon to invest a giant mining operation into Eth. More likely, it's a combination of difficulty bomb (by design), and more rigs being brought online/switched to Eth mining. Difficulty bomb won't affect difficulty for at least 5 months. Interesting. From what I've read on other Threads - most of the difficulty rise comes from new mining hardware, improvements in GPU mining techniques and new people coming into crypto-mining because of ETH. Someone could research and post figures on wallet-qt growth rate over the last 4 weeks! The difficulty bomb will start to phase in in November. So I think the Ethereum developers has about 1-2 month to solve the problem.
