[Bitcoin Private Has forked!]

Hello Everyone!

Bitcoin Private Has forked! If you do not know about it Please read here https://btcprivate.org/

Everyone who owns bitcoin has Bitcoin Private 1:1 and this coin is better than any other bitcoin fork. It is the real deal decentralized community driven project!
Uses zk snarks for privacy! Tech developed by the zcash developers. Anyways you can get into the details yourself it is a wonderful combination. Also very low inflation coin.

I have spent only about 30 minutes trying to mine the new coin and am not having any success yet.

This is the official Reddit link to the start of the new blockchain BTCP here https://www.reddit.com/r/BitcoinPrivate/comments/81ratw/fork_is_finished_mainnet_has_fully_launched/

It could be that the few pools i have tried aren't up yet.
List of pools here https://btcprivate.org/pools.html

Please share what pool you are using if you are mining btcp.

Also Wallets Full node and Electrum are out so its official! I just want to support with my little bit of hashpower to get this blockchain rolling!

Happy mining BTCros!

Hello I need some help with one of my electrum wallets. It has become stuck on synchronizing and I feel I am going to have to recover the wallet on a different computer with a new install of electrum. I have tried changing the server to no avail. I have my seed and my password so i am grateful for that. I can open the wallet and see then last transaction i have coming in but its unknown because the wallet cant sync. How do i get my wallet transfered to a new system to restore the wallet. Any advice would be helpful. There are a lot of buttons like export and import? It's tough to jump into when there's btc at stake. I hope someone can help me here, thanks guys!

Hello everyone, I am encountering and issue with my main desktop computer that I like to mine on occasionally. I wanted to test out Kaspersky Anti virus after learning about how legit there AV software is but it has bitten me in the butt. I even uninstalled the software because I want to be able to run EWBF's CUDA Miner. Even after uninstalling the AV software completely when i go to launch flypool.bat it pulls up the cmd prompt for a split second and then closes before anything happens. Now my question to you people is what do you think is still blocking this from working as it did before i installed the AV software? What did the software change, and not undo when i uninstalled it to cause this? Any help is appreciated thanks.

So i bought an Antminer S7 and was planning to use two dell 750w server psu's with the gekkoscience breakout boards. I had planned on using two in load balancing mode using a signal wire and two current sharing wires, one positive, one Negative. This is shown here: http://www.gekkoscience.com/products/D750_3way.html



Anyways is this setup possible with an Antminer S7? The first thing it says when opening the box is not to use anything lower than 800w if your using one psu for two hashing boards.
So will using the above gekkoscience setup totaling 1500w work with two psu's in load balancing mode? If the psu that powers two boards needs more power will it take it from the other psu? Just want to make sure this is safe. I haven't seen much talk about this setup since the S7 came out.

I am running a Batch 4 4.66 th/s

UPDATE:

I Set it up and prayed that nothing would break. I am sad to say it did not work like a 1500w psu and allow the S7 to run! This was very surprising result. Luckily the S7 is still fine and up and hashing.  The psu cut out currently. So Bitmain was right. If you buy an S7 you must have no less than 400w per board. So 800w for two boards. This is unfortunate as i do not want to buy another noisy psu and another breakout board.

Useful INFO about S7 setups:

After I restored my setup with 3 psu I tried to make the two dell server psu quieter by using a single pin wire and grounding the fan pin on a gnd pin. After i started the system up it seemed a tad bit quieter but it was hard to focus as i was scared of something going wrong. And then the HW Errors went over 8%! i immediately shut the system down out of panic, and it is running nice and noisy after scraping that idea.

Also I was running fan speed at normal because i wanted system to run nice and cool with the winter air intake. After changing the fan speed to a sweet spot of 50% (3570rpm front and little less rear). The system warmed up to between 48-52 on chips and the HW ERROR went from 1+% to .0064! Antminer S7 has a sweet spot temp! Hashing is more steady to now.

BTW Antminer S7 @ Fan 50%, This is about the point where you here the dell high pitch psu thats how loud they are under load!
