all you can mine is etherum or etherum classic with a rx card, you can’t mine bitcoin
cant really mine any other algo decently, do your self a favor and sell it for a 10x nivida 1070 or higher if you want to have options to mine.

Funds can be stolen regardless of the level of security you have enabled!

Do not leave funds on IDAX

My funds were withdrawn on there today , I had 2FA via google authentication and also email code confirmation for withdrawal

Seems like and inside job because they were also able to change the account password without and emails being sent or confirmed.

The only emails I saw were the account access emails , so it seems they have a serious flaw or breach.


Beware !!

I have one of those smart fridges with a lcd and it even has WiFi and amazon for ordering
Supplies.  I’m sure it have a powerful gpu right? Also my toaster has is a computarized one I think it also has an lcd and chip , there must be some software I can install maybe via WiFi right ?

Also my washer and dryer and only a year old and heavily automated and computerized with WiFi go of course , maybe the same fridge software could be configure to mine something simple like litecoin or diash?

Please point me in the best direction and thanks in advance  

I heard there’s a guy called Vorskoin that is expert on reviews on stuff likes this maybe he can do a review of
The most profitable appliances for mining?

Got into an argument with somone over the fact I belive all non forked algos

other than x16r snd c7 , the new Phi version and CN heavy have large amounts of FPGA 
and ASIC hash , hidden or public. 

He disagrees saying Neoscrypt is fully asic resistant, does anyone have data on popular Neoscrypt
coins like Vtc and thier hash rate rise over the last 12 months months?

My new thing is to use 50% of my hash on coins and algos that dont have asics yet since
 even with low profit i can get twice or morw of the amount of rewards so it plays well long term

* updated I am located midwest USA**
Had the antminers since sept 2017, won the lottery with these ones, run great no bad boards max hash always
on viabtc  , average hash rate is 13.7-8  never 13.5 on the whole batch

Same with the A3s if you have good cooling you can oc to 1th at 1350 watts, I ran them at 900th in the cooler spring.

2 D3s are installed with the blitz firmware so you can oc and underclock undervolt as much as you want

I also have 5 antminer 1600 watt psus

prices per unit
s9s 13.5 th - .11 btc
A3s - .075 btc
D3 - .04 btc
A++ psu 1600 watt - .017 btc

I also have 1 D3 with a bad board but replacement in hand too lazy to swap em
-.065 btc ( you get th board too)


buyer pays shipping, escrow of course

I have a bunch of 100 and 200 bitmain coupons too i can throw in , per unit , 1 200 one per s9, and the $100 ones per A3 or D3

All miners and PSU's have original boxes




A3s


D3



S9s

Payouts according to thier calculator is way lowerthan what other calculators say

anyone else experience this?

So anyone want to predict what the Monero diffulty goes to on the 6th ?

current diff is  - 116,825,734,095
total hashrate  -957.59 Mh/s give or take?

Personally I predict at 30% inital drop , before GPU miners switch back over from other coins

so difficult goes to 81,778,013,866.5
hash rate to 600  mh/s

So this antminer works with my 4k breakout board kits but  i got my hands on a new APW3++

plugged in all the pci-e connectors inculding controller board and connected the APW3++ to power.

The fans on it spin so it seems that the PSU is active but the s7 wont turn on ?

any ideas ?

Mining with a laptop is doable but due to small form factor and cooling
its not good for the long term life unless you run at super low itensity

you temps should never be above 60 to 70 degrees.

I know there are others that let you buy just the enclosure and the card you get separately but this on I tested
and it works grate.

you might say $600 is too pricy but currently all gtx1070 cards are going for around 500 to 550 anyways and with
this one you get a 450 watt gold psu, 4 usbs , and a system that charges your laptop through the thunderbolt connection so you save a power cord too.  Also get a nice spiffy case and led lights the thing is
tiny.

Im my breif tests it connects and installs as if u plugged in a pcie card,no drivers software needed on win 10 creators

I have a 1060 6gb in my laptop so now in Afterburner i see both.

currently using both on eth and lbr to test and i run the 1060 at ethi 2 so i get 15mhs eth 15lbr 65 degrees stock mem

the gaming box gets 30mhs eth 37 lbry at 600 mem and 85 powerlmit

i tried lower powelimits like my desktop cards but i think its a thunderbolt thing

illconnect them both to a wattmeter later.

So there you have it , easy gpu mining on any laptop with windows and thunderbolt
withoute killing you laptop.

like i said all prices on cards are high at the moment so its not a bad idea to pick one
of these up.  High quality 1070 8gb, great cooling , temps stay at 75 in my hot bedroom
and its quiter than the laptop itself

XFX Dual BIOS Mining

Equipped for gaming and mining

We know enthusiast like options, our RX 570 and 580 graphics cards are shipped with a Dual BIOS. If you want optimal gaming performance just install it and go. For cryptocurrency mining, simply shut the system down and flip the BIOS switch on the card. Our mining BIOS is already tuned to give increased mining hashrates without hassle.

i grabbed a few gtrs this week alrrady flashed them but this sounds interesting to me anyone try those bioses?
or even know what cards have this?

cant  connect to ethpool all day

one of my S9s all of a sudden ( just  got them last week) it wont let me log in

, now if i factory reset it i can log in then after a while the same crap happens , I already have a s9 that came with two bad boards i have to send back and two bad D3s

all just arrived last week smh.  So i would really like to not have to send this one back as well.

P.s for repair can I send it to the USA repair site ?

I told yas to keep mining btg its on bittrexx now close to 300 probably gona hit 500

both these companies were relevant when btc was trading around $150 to $300

Black arrow had a decent model and miner at the time but they chose to seek quick profits via scam and non delivery
late shipments, mining with customer gear and totally killed thier rep.

Imagine if they could have stayed alive , all thier shipments were based on pre orders, they could have kept
increasing thier tech with prefunded $$ and made hundreds of millons mining and selling gear smh.

Sp tech is even worse, had a great product but was unwilling to compete with bitmain even though they had a. loyal following.  They must have had shit accountants cuz if they could have kept shipping miners for a few more years they would probably have been major players with thier great rnd and software.
but they chose to sell out to big cloud companies and eventually that dried up for them too smh

https://blog.ethereum.org/2017/10/12/byzantium-hf-announcement/

damn those buggers 3 eth reward now instead of 5

15 sec block time I though they promised 12

The promise profitability will go back to October rates so an increase of about 30% from what the difficulty bomb took from us, but that remains to be seen.

Personally I hope metaverse price keeps climbing so i can move my rigs to that.  Who is going to compensate us for 4 months of 30% less earnings

Trying to replace my six gpu rigs with these boards I have two of them

everything seems to work , but when the its strange on both of these boards , rx 580 cards  I cannot change voltages on afterburner with these boards

I have the latest bios and everything, so its not that.  I have had other ASUS boards the 270-P boards and never seen this issue.

I also tried saphire trixx same deal , it does let you appear to change the voltages but when you look at the true voltage using GPU-Z its the same

any ideas ?

Anyone have experince with running cgminer or sgminer next to ethminer on the same PC?

theoretically it should be easy , just run both and adjust the intensity on the dual coin and things should work fine
but I am having a hard time finding a working version for either algo since everyone else seems to be using claymore.

here is what I use for sgminer version 5.3.4 eth

Code:

setx GPU_FORCE_64BIT_PTR 0
setx GPU_MAX_HEAP_SIZE 100
setx GPU_USE_SYNC_OBJECTS 1
setx GPU_SINGLE_ALLOC_PERCENT 100
setx GPU_MAX_ALLOC_PERCENT 100


set host=%COMPUTERNAME%
echo %host%

FOR /f "tokens=1,2 delims=-" %%a IN ("%host%") do echo %%a& set hostid=%%b

echo %hostid%

sgminer-x64 -k decred -o http://dcr.suprnova.cc:3252 -u Rig.%hostid% -p x -I 8 -w 64 -g 2 

it gets to the point where it loads the kernel and just freezes.

Asto the reason I am switching I am of the belif that the stopping and starting of claymore for dev fee mining is detrimental to my rigs
around 10 rigs  I have been having issues with , where after a few hours sometimes 10 hours or so they either crash and reboot or
I see cards mining at 8.3 mhs bascially sick/dead.

After the switch to ethminer no such issues and i just donate one time and do not have to constantly deal with the dev fee
