I'd like to push this discussion. Any more opinions to Lumens considering the past weeks?
For me Lumens still look like a good idea to buy. The price is low and the potential might be high since they do have a realistic market cap.

Thanks for this information. But wouldn't that mean XRP will become more valuable over time anyway?

Opinions are going far apart from each other here. As far as I know from working for an IT-Security company the safest anti-virus is an intelligent user. Especially in companies it is very important to give introductions for non-IT but also for IT departments for secure passwords, protection against social engineering, data safety and do backups all the time. The anti-virus itself is way less important than these aspects. But if I had to recommend a special software I would suggest Avast. It is lightweight, not annoying and usually doing a good job. Best would be the combination with Little Snitch to watch all network connections.

Why though? I mean Ethereum seems to be a steadily growing currency which is sort of connected with Augur quite a lot. How could it happen that "the good Ethereum" is in such a close connection to the "bad Augur"? I'm just asking since all the threads here are not really giving answers regarding the connection and also the bad reputation of Augur. Also I can't give any advice on Augur myself since I don't have any practical experience with it..

Ist die Sache weiterhin aktiv? Sind hier viele nutzer unterwegs oder handelt es sich eher um eine passive gruppe?
Das ganze klingt jedenfalls recht vielversprechend und ich würde auch gerne beitreten. PN folgt gleich.

The whole Bytecent system seems to be very strange to me. Although I read how it works and checked out their "client" things don't really get more clear. Using a nicely built GUI is probably a good way to catch a lot of unaware users to push the whole network, but it can't work out very well for a long time imho

He's probably talking about some kind of loyalty program, bonus or special offer for buying on the page, although serious vendors are seldomly offering promotions like that.

Ich weiß das hier ist ein alter Thread aber detailliertere Infos wären dennoch nett um hier nicht Negativkritik unbeantwortet stehen zu lassen. Etwas mehr Einblick in deine Problematik und den negativen Erfahrungen sind auch möglich ohne sich potentiell auf rechtlich dünnes Eis zu bewegen. Mich würden nähere Details interessieren da das Angebot der Seite akzeptabel klingt. Bisher lese ich hier und auch in anderen Threads aber nur kritische (beweislose) oder unglaubwürdig positive Punkte

Did your purchase include ETH? Or just BTC? Since the ETH option seems to be gone from the page and I dont understand why. There is no official announcement or any hint as far as I can see

Der Mailspam mit dem ausgehend von Betcoin versucht wird einen wieder zum Spielen zu bewegen wird meines Erachtens auch täglich schlimmer. Kaum blockt man einen Absender schicken sie vom nächsten schon wieder agressive Werbung und davon abgesehen natürlich haufenweise bereits von mehreren genannte Anfragen von "Frauen" ...einfach lächerlich was da läuft, von den heftig diskutierten Spielinhalten mal ganz abgesehen.

Which topics would even remain in that case? I thought the Dark Web is full of this stuff only...
Oh and don't forget money laundering, I guess this is one of the skipped and probably mostly faked topics anyway.

Could you please elaborate on your assertion a bit more specific? When and how much have the prices been pumped up and down heavily?
I'm just curious and would be interested in further information on your personal thoughts about hashnest. (EDIT: I know this is an older thread already, but newer ones are not focusing on that topic any more so I'd still be interested in that)

Only as long as the money has been sent as an official transaction which is taxed for either the buyer or the seller. There are a lot of sellers who'd like to trick the buyer into sending a paypal payment via the "send to family and friends" option to "save the taxes". This way nobody has to pay taxes but the buyer/seller protection by the support team does not apply as well.

Das traurige ist dass das scheinbar für viele Großkonzerne Grund genug ist laufend ihren Willen durchzusetzen...

Von meiner Seite gibts aber auf jeden Fall einen Daumen für das Wort Gurkentruppe

Is it actually advisable to start mining bytecent at the time? Or in general?

I tried it out for a few hours yesterday but the client does not seem to work properly. Whenever it is closed, it can't be opened again. The starting screen pops up shortly, then it is dead and nothing happens. Anybody else with this problem?

Thanks for all the helpful hints, I really appreciate it.

I will try out all the tips and tricks soon but so far I still don't get why exactly the Y-cable would be a better/worse choice than the powered USB hub? The Y-cable gives more power to the stick and transmittes its data, okay. But the powered USB hub does the same, right? I mean it gives extra power by being extra powered  Yet the Y-cable can pull even more power when the stick is being overclocked, did I get that correctly? Sorry for the redundancy, I just want to understand where the advantages and disadvantages are within both setups.

Thanks for that information, I got it now. But a good USB hub with external power supply would replace that cable anyway, right?

Thanks a lot for that hint. How come I didn't find this thread before? I swear I was searching through the forums before   




Thanks for your answer. Looks like everybody recommends cgminer. By reading several threads before I thought bfgminer would be the better option but in this case I'll give cgminer a try.

-I'm using an EasyAcc H40 USB 3.0 Hub. Now I changed my setting and the mining stick is directly on the computer, only the fan is on the Hub. This works a bit better, but for some reason bfgminer stops working sometimes. After restarting it works again, just sometimes "no response". Could these issues correlate somehow? Anyway, I'll give it a try with cgminer anyway.

-What exactly do you mean by the y-cable could help? Where's the difference between a y-cable and an external usb hub? I guess the cable needs "less power", is that it?

-I'm using Win 7, didn't try it on my Ubuntu distribution so far.

Hi, I am using my new USB Asicminer block erupter which has a hashrate of up to 16gh/s. After setting up everything with USB to UART Bridge VCP drivers it started working perfectly with BFGMiner with around 12gh/s, which was fine. It was getting hot so I used a usb driven fan to cool it.

After an hour I came back and noticed that the hashrate fell down to 6gh/s and slowly went down more and more. It was getting lower and lower but also falling down slower and slower. I tried another computer, but the same thing: After a few minutes the hashrate steadily got lower. Also the miner doesn't blink with its blue light as it did when it worked heavily, it's also not hot at all any more. Does anybody know what to do to keep the hashrate up?

Clock speed is set to 200 as suggested by BFGminer for compaq devices. Also the results are the same wheter I use the USB 3.0 ports directly on the computer or a fast external USB hub.

Thanks in advance.
