Buy buy buy buy buy.   If you notice it’s stopped falling, climbed a bit and back down but not below $10000.

I believe $10,000 is the new floor

My miner is now running no issues.

The website says capacity full and from what I’ve been told the power company that was supposed to give them hydro power is not living up to their end of the bargain.

I can confidently say great north is not a scam. 

Add me to the list an I only sent one miner. At this point I can defiantly agree do not send them miners

Nothing funny has happened after installing electron wallet but since the dev is not open about who they are then i wouldnt keep anything in electron wallet after you claim your bitcoin cash.  I sent my bitcoin cash to viabtc.

you will need to contact bittrex about the bitcoin cash

the master seed or master key you get from electron wallet is only good for electron wallet.  once you empty the wallet and transfer bitcoin or bitcoin cash to another wallet or exchange that master seed private key is only for electron wallet.  just dont use electron wallet again and all is good

Genesis Mining Posted this on the Payouts Page

We are currently investigating all delayed payouts. Until these issues are solved, we will temporarily switch to a new payout schedule: Instead of paying out daily, we will payout all funds every two days – e.g. the next payout is scheduled for the 9th of August, covering the payouts of 7th and 8th of August and so on.This is only a measure to take pressure off the daily routine until we are sure that our infrastructure is again capable of performing at maximum. We will then return to daily payouts as soon as possible. Thank you for your understanding.


Sign of the end?

Bitmain never responded.  I guess it's not important to them.

The option to pay by Bitcoin was never given in the order

I sent them this after I ordered an S9 in the latest batch

I would like to complete this purchase however before I wire any money I found this topic on Bitcoin talk

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2062789.new#new

The poster said he wired the money but you have yet to confirm it.  Before I wire funds I'd like to be sure there are not going to be any problems if I wire funds

If your bank says the money has been wired then they have it.

I paid with Bitcoin, so they had no choice but to say they got it because I can just look at the block chain info.

I hope you get them to confirm and Mark your invoice paid

It's not connected to your Mycelium wallet. The twelve words that you have written down were the master seed aka private key from the Bitcoin ledger. That's why those twelve words are so important. If someone gets your twelve words then they can transfer your Bitcoin anywhere.

Just some questions.

Did you own Bitcoin BEFORE August 1st?

Mycelium Wallet will give you a code to accept incoming Bitcoin transfers, that isn't the private key.

Did you get the twelve words when you backed up your Mycelium wallet?

The miner batch don't ship out till October I believe.

I ordered a S9 and power supply and got both.  Took several months.

I don't think they make them until they have a certain number sold

The S9 not far over what bitmain sells them for. Somebody probably bought a batch and reselling them since bitmain sells out pretty quickly.  If the site had live inventory of how many were actually available

You used your Bitcoin private key to get the Bitcoin Cash.

According to ELECTRUM they do not know the person that wrote Electron Cash. They pointed out the software is not digitally signed or any contact information is made available.  Big RED flags. Electron Cash may be legit or maybe not

I strongly suggest sending the Bitcoin Cash out to an exchange that supports Bitcoin Cash deposits or to a legitimate Bitcoin Cash Wallet.

I strongly suggest you EMPTY the Bitcoin Wallet you used to get your master keys or master seed to get your Bitcoin Cash to appear in Electron Cash

Deleting Electron Cash is just a precaution. Reformating the computer is a paranoid solution in case electron cash left a piece of software that looks for and steals Bitcoin keys

Ok, I followed the advice and got it done.

First off follow the advice about electron cash.  There are too many red flags and if you have a large amount of Bitcoin that you cannot stand to lose do steps to protect yourself.

Install electron cash on a computer that doesn't have your Bitcoin wallet or any information about your Bitcoin. Use a virtual machine if you can.

When you get to the option to select new wallet etc. Select you have a existing seed or master seed. This is your list of twelve words that you got when you did a backup of your Mycelium wallet

Type the words in with spaces. Example "one two three four five six seven eight nine ten eleven twelve"

You'll notice that the next box in the lower rightbcorner is greyed out

Click the Options box. Put a check in the BIP138 box

Now the next box is available. Click next and when the wallet connects to the Bitcoin cash server you will see your Bitcoin cash balance.

I strongly suggest you transfer the Bitcoin cash out to an exchange that supports Bitcoin cash transfers.

Delete the electron cash wallet after you transfer the Bitcoin cash out and if your really paranoid reformat the computer.  If you used a virtual machine then no worries

EMPTY the Mycelium Wallet back to the exchange Coinbase etc or to another Bitcoin Wallet

Now do what you'd like with the Bitcoin cash. It's free money

The warning is valid for electron cash.  Talk about a way to gather private keys then sweep everything at a laster date

Those brave enough to use electron cash I just did it

To make sure that your private Bitcoin key doesn't stay compromised, move your Bitcoin to a different wallet that is temporary and you will not use again.  

Get your 12 word backup master seed from the new wallet that you should have written down

Install electron cash on a computer or device that DOESN'T HAVE ELECTRUM WALLET

Select that you already have a master seed or private key

Type the 12 words with spaces between the words ie "mister kilo missing you like loco loco Moco love mitagate oil pilot"

You'll notice the next box is greyed out

Click options and select the BIP138 box

Click next and bingo you'll see your Bitcoin cash balance

Now the MOST IMPORTANT PART.  Empty your new Bitcoin wallet. Delete it and even better format the computer you used
Empty your electron cash wallet to an exchange that supports Bitcoin cash

Cash it in or trade with it

I transferred my Bitcoin balance from Coinbase to a Mycelium wallet. 

Where do I transfer the balance to get my Bitcoin cash?

I signed up with coinbase and after sending $2000 they want ID verification. No problem

Problem...  Site says cannot process documents your session has expired..

So tried coinsbank.  They want uploaded ID.  NO problem

Problem...  No response for hours and no response to online chat....

Eesh...  Price is going up.  And no way to contact either of them but by website and email..
