1  Economy / Digital goods / [Sold] $75 Gaw Gift Card on: October 19, 2014, 11:42:46 PM
I have a $75 Gift card to Gaw Miners that I'd like to sell for .12 BTC. ~$39!

Buyer pays first, or covers any escrow fees if uncomfortable going first. The gift code is good, but if anything goes wrong and Gaw will verify to me that there is a problem with the buyer redeeming the code, I will give a refund, minus tx fee.

Thanks

Update 6/19/14: Although I have been unable to test out a current image, what was happening appears to be isolated to only to me, and having been corrected on the Zen back end should no longer effect me. Eric has worked with me in a capacity that was unexpected to say the least. Having spoken with him on the phone concerning this matter, I am genuinely confident that any impropriety while unfortunate was also completely unintentional.

I believe the road ahead for Zen is both bright and exciting and look forward to fully transitioning my farm to their platform. To any wary souls who might still be hesitant because of past events, I say that you have nothing at all to be worried about, and that you would be doing yourself a disservice by not giving Zen the opportunity to show you how great they can be. Any who so desire may reach out to me personally about this for reassurance.


I am leaving the post below intact for posterity, but know that it no longer reflects my attitude toward Zen and Gaw, and I believe that they more than deserve the benefit of the doubt from anyone still harboring reservations. Because this issue has been resolved, and because I do not wish to see undue harm come to the nascent company, I am locking the topic and letting forum slide do the rest. All further discussion regarding the Zen service should be directed to the dedicated topic or dedicated forum:

I got tired of waiting and decided to clone the OS and add my own blade support. I changed the root password, got a gridseed version of cgminer running, and had rebooted it to test it's ability to restart remotely. I was checking the pools when this other pool just popped up in my list after about 1-2 minutes. After running for another 2 minutes, my pool was deleted, and his was the only pool running. I pulled the plug, and cut it off and tested it several more times. It repeats this every time.

What the fuck man? YOU HAVE NO RIGHT! YOU DO NOT GET TO FUCK WITH MY POOLS, EVER.

It's the goddamn golden rule. It's not your place to add your own pool in for any reason. Worse, your system deleted my pool, so I was just mining for you.  Angry

How the hell am I ever supposed to trust your product now?

Your other customers don't have access, and can't see that this has been done. This is complete bullshit.

If anyone is using this product, they should unplug it immediately, and scrutinize their own pools to see if they've lost any hashing time.

FWIW, the only changes I made were to put a GS compatible CGMiner binary, alongside their own binary, then change the start script to call CGMiner03 (my binary) instead of CGMiner01 (their binary). I made one other change in a python script that referred to CGMiner01, to CGMiner03. I was ssh'ed in and using screen to check it's function when I found the pool anamoly. The Zenminer would always populate it with my pool from the ZenOS website initially, but then add the other pool and delete mine.

5  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / [Bounty] New GPU Miner - Scrypter on: December 28, 2013, 03:23:15 AM
It occurs to me that I posted my bounty in the wrong forum initally, so I am cross-posting it here, in the hopes that in the right place it will get more visibility. After careful consideration I'm also altering the goals. I expect this will require a larger bounty to accomplish, so I've added more to the pot and I'm hoping for donations to that end as well.

Any donations to this address will go 100% towards the bounty, which will be awarded to the first individual to complete all the objectives. I have sent .12BTC to that address, and it can be monitored so everyone can be sure that the complete balance goes toward payout.

If you want to donate, but want a refund if the bounty terms aren't met, PM me your donation amount and a refund address *before* you send your donation.

To be clear, you will only receive a refund on your donation if the bounty is closed without having been fulfilled.

The Bounty is closed.


General goals:

Create a new miner: Scrypter by forking CGMiner 3.7.2 and narrowing code for support of GPUs only.

Minimum Requirements:

  • Miner must be able to properly control VDDC, Engine, Mem, Powertune, and fans for all the unlocked R9 280x cards in a given rig.
  • Enable Scrypt by default, no CLI switch should be needed
  • Remove ASIC/FPGA code, drivers, and CLI options from the code base.
  • All code must be open sourced, prior to claiming the bounty, so it can be inspected.
  • Windows Binaries must be provided.
  • Stable Code - must run minimum 24 hours without crashing


Optional: Support Scrypt-Jane.

Notes:

Some GPUs are voltage locked, and will not be covered under this task. The cards that I have: Asus R9 280x DCII & Sapphire R9 280x Toxic can be controlled via OEM tools such as Afterburner, Trixx, & GPU Tweak. Those cards must be able to be VDDC controlled via the miner. Currently CGMiner 3.7.2 can control the Engine, Mem, & Fans. Powertune can be controlled, but it doesn't seem reliable.

To claim the bounty, you must be the first to PM me a link to your complete github source AND a link to your Windows binary (hosted via Mega/dropbox or other 'no wait' download provider).  

There will be a 24-48 hour inspection and testing period to determine if the objectives have been correctly met before the bounty is considered won.
