You are welcome to take over the list if you wish. I won't be maintaining it for very much longer. This place is too toxic with "hero" member bullshit. Looking into it... Can you PM me the raw "code" from the OP, and I will see if I can reformat it. (Then I will make a cross-link to the new forum-thread, so this one can be locked. Just in-case I should I find the task worth the effort.) Thanks-again, Toots. Your continual efforts have helped to make this whole perception of reality, less cumbersome. |

Might want to mine another coin until this is fixed... Would be sad to think that all these mined coins would disappear. (That was a joke.)

Thanks. I've used peerblock for many years. If I remember correctly some aircoin pools are blacklisted by peerblock.
At least Okaypool was/is and maybe airpool.org was too. Can't remember anymore.
edit: With your suggested nodes, I seem to still have the same problem with synching. "0 hours remaining" and "Processed 43471 of 551316 remaining". Maybe I should try to synch the wallet again from the beginning.
edit2: Did not work! I'm not going to touch my wallet again until teamaircoin sort this "fork" out of the way. Though it says you are not synched, you are... those nodes are not sending the block-data, they can't, they are invalid blocks. You have to look at the first number... "43474", if that matches the block-chain, then you are synched, and can mine without issues. Seems that another coin is using the same rooms as AIRcoin, for broadcasting. AIR should be rejecting them, for version mismatch, as I told them they needed to do before. However, until whatever coin, or hacked-program, stops broadcasting in the AIRcoin rooms, this will continue. (This can happen if you clone a coin, and don't designate a "private IRC channel for broadcasting, with a seed-confirmed password, or encrypted output"... if this is not a purposeful attack.) The subversions are waaaay off... and old, so I assume this is not the AIR teams "new coin". Easy to block with a new update that just rejects subversion "/Satoshi:*/", since the only valid subversion is "/Satoshi 2:*/" Should not be difficult to find the culprit coin, as we know the block-height for the bad coin is "551325"
(Pssst, It is LTC)Could be a check-point issue... did they turn-on auto checkpoints, but forget to tell it to generate checkpoints for AIR, so it made one for LTC instead? |

Safe nodes... 1: Shut-down AIRcoin wallet. 2: delete "peer.dat" 3: add these nodes addnode=107.170.20.200 addnode=188.226.182.21 addnode=54.186.33.252 addnode=75.151.232.141 addnode=188.165.194.96 addnode=5.250.177.28 This will not stop them from connecting, but ensures that you have some safe nodes, so those rogue-nodes are not the only ones you find. Nice program... PeerBlocker... (Back from the days of winMX. lol. Still works great for many reasons. Nice blacklists too.) http://www.peerblock.com/releasesSadly, does not support ipv6 |

So now the block height is back to normal and wallet seems fine so what happened? Is this developer caused? No, it is still abnormal... you might just not have a sour node connected. Whoever is playing with the modified chain (since it is still growing), has to connect to the real chain, through at-least one node. (Seems that connection is still in my list, as I still have the "0 hours remaining", and "Processed 43441 of 551304 remaining", on my running wallet.)  [

Seems to be a fork... or a glitch... or a bug from testing the "new wallet" on the "live chain"? "Processed 43168 of 551136 estimated" <- Message with mouse over progress bar. http://teamaircoin.org/explorer/43168 is the correct height. 551136 is definitely a runaway invalid fork. (You couldn't mine off it, even if you wanted to, only the fuzzed miners that were created to mine on it, can mine on it.) There could not be 551136 blocks, unless some person has a mini-fork which they allowed to fall down to near-zero diff, and then have disabled the diff-checks... then reconnected, but the invalid blocks are just being replaced as we find replacements. Might need a hard-fork, with that bad chain ignored. (No legitimate AIRcoin wallet should have made that chain, so it is a glitch, or a purposely altered version of AIR, that was used in a futile attempt to do some double-spends or a 51% attack.) I got a lot of [?] blocks... Which reminds me, we need a "repairwallet" or "fixwallet" command, to remove those bad transactions. |

Not the case dude The real problem is mixing psu grounds and results can be amazing depending how your home is wired and if power plug is rotated at 180 degrees  Short story do not do it Long story ask someone who do you trust and knows that stuff for detailed explanation Grounded plugs (|.|) can not be "rotated 180 deg". Nor can EU plugs (-|). Nor can most standard US non-grounded plugs (! |) {narrow prong, wide prong} {Even still, the rectifier isolates + from -, adding the - to the ground. The PSU will not start otherwise, it would fault.} +12v is +12v on the output of every PSU, ground is ground on every PSU. Dual PSU's are common, and standard, especially in servers. If it was an "issue", you couldn't touch one PC to another, or power one device from a wall-wart, that was plugged-in to your PSU... like um... USB-hubs, external drives, network cards, high-speed modems. They do not use full isolation, they all share a common ground, and have independent voltage inputs. These simplify the process of adding multiple PSU's to one source... They usually have a relay on the 5v rail, which doubles as the 5v load too. http://www.frozencpu.com/cat/l3/g12/c133/s1513/list/p1/Accessories-PC_Tools-Multi_PSU_Adapter-Page1.htmlHere is a nice write-up... http://www.extremetech.com/computing/91808-add2psu-how-to-combine-multiple-power-supplies-in-a-single-computer |
|
|

Remember, if you do use 2 PSU's... you WILL need something on both PSU's to give the PSU a 5v load. Without something on the 5v rail, the 12v rail will not have a reff-voltage to stabilize correctly. EG, plug an old CD-Drive or Floppy-Drive or any other device into one of the standard MOLEX (four prong "oooo" cables.) For the AMT unit PSU, this would be the raspberrypi as the 5v load. For the other PSU, you will need another device. (Find a nice 5v LED-light display, and you have a cool load to light-up the cards.  ) P.S. An external 12v fan, will not work, as it does not use the 5v on the molex connections, though it may have a wire on the plug, it is not actually connected to anything. (It will say 12v on the fans sticker.) You know if you have power issues, because some boards will run at abnormal speeds. If you turn the unit off, and remove a board, and the remaining boards run normal... or better... then you are running into voltage issues. The PSU is not providing enough AMPs, while it tries to maintain the correct VOLTs. (Thus, the stated above solution, or you need a PSU with more AMPs on the 12v rails, to match the cards draw.) When buying a PSU, you want to mind the RAILs and the AMPs per rail. +12v/+12v (2 rails) *may not be split correctly for 5 cards, 2 @ 30a each (great), 3 @ 20a each (starved) 60a/60a +12v (1 rail) *better for 5 cards, 5 @ 24a each (ok) 120a NOTE: Without something on the +5v load, you may only have 50-80% of that amperage on the 12v rails. Voltage will actually drop to 10.5v-11.5v once the unit starts running, on the weak rail, in a multi-rail PSU. That, or it will remain 12v, but be lower available amps then expected. Only 30a-45a per rail, in the dual-rail setup mentioned above. That is just an example. I will know more detail about each cards individual "ideal power consumption", as my unit arrives for testing. |

So the timeline will be:
0HR: Notice of new coin
72HR: Verification period begins
144HR: Verification Period Ends
- HR: Coin released
Addendum:
The coins will be 1:1 at the amounts when verified in that 72 hour window.
The timeline stated in the previous post will start (0HR) when the new coin's code is ready to be released and it is set up for exchange.
This is the confusing part... 0-hr = no hours left... this has "started" or "now" Which coincides with the prior clipped portion, which was a "Notice of a new coin". But, I am glad you cleared that up... three days later, (72 hours later). |

Just a reminder... You will not be able to be "credited" for coins that are not in your wallets... Once they determine what coins to match, past a certain block, those coins will have to be in your wallet, to confirm proof of ownership. Moving them after the block-limit will not count, as coins could be moved into those blocks, after being credited.
Translation: Pull your orders off the exchange and pools, and back into your wallet before the give-away starts. Otherwise, you will not be credited. Also, if you want to take advantage of the offer, you may want to buy them, before everyone pulls them off the exchanges for the crediting/giveaway.
P.S. Poloniex seems to be taking over an hour (over two hours now) for withdrawing AIR at the moment. ? It's a fee-free transaction, what the hell are they stalling for?
Have they started this timer already? Not that I know of... they said 72-hours, and the hour is nigh!... I assume they will announce something, like... "Only one hour left to get your coins into your wallet!", or something. (They didn't leave any decent instructions on how they were doing this, or what was required of us. I suppose, like always, they will let us know, when it is too late to do anything, and just pop-in and say... "Ok, time is up. Hope you guessed what you were supposed to do, in order to get credited!") lol They still have to work on the whole "communication thing". (At this rate, there are like 10 miners left mining. 40MHs for the whole network, some of that is them, I imagine...) |

Mine just come in under 10 minutes. However http://airpool.org/ is still without any sort of payments.  Might be because I am trying to withdraw over 10,000 AIR in one shot... lol. (Might be considered "suspicious" to them.) |

Hey guys, can anyone tell me if its better to get the do it yourself kit or wait another week for the full package.... Im due to receive my miner very soon ? ? ? Since you had to ask, I would say that it is safer to wait for the whole package. (Your asking, leads me to assume you may have doubts about playing with the raw components of the system. Not trying to imply anything, other than that.) It is more than just a "connect wire and run", kit... There is a lot to contend with. That is just my opinion. (Unless you want to risk damage that may or may not be covered.) |

I'm brand new in this marvelous cryptocurrencies world, which makes fun and I've solo mined AIR till yesterday, and now, I'm in the expectation of real news from the team, almost to know how a coin can be relaunched and if there is a future for such altcoins in the real world on a long term perspective.
Jofo Welcome to the wonderful world of chaotic-order. There is always a future for any credit-system like this, which has a "Proof of work" value added to it. It is just a matter of finding a use for it, which is difficult with the core structure and nature of the original coin, which all the other coins are based-off-of. However, a future is always there. |

Nice explanation.
Maybe a 3d printer would make miracles in your ideas.
You don't have any S1? That is the reason for donating? No, I do not have any S1's (If I did, I would have not asked for a donor-unit. I would have used one of my own.)... I was holding-out for the S2's for a bit, but have AMT's 1.2THs model in-transit. Will be doing some work for them, over the coming months. However, I do a lot of mods, to many things. This thread jumped at me. (Reminded me of the old AMD and PENTIUM mods, for unlocking chips and adjusting clock-speeds. Nice hacks! That and the old "graphite piano", circuit-bending tricks.) |
|
|
|
As about snapping on, how could this be done? Glue or something? No glue. I fabricate plastic parts, from cheap things... xD (Years of playing with plastic in an injection-molding plant, has led me to make some crazy contraptions from simple PP, PET and HDPE plastics.) By the looks of it, it would simply "slip-on", just under the HCM1305-R47-R (R47) inductor. Either taking advantage of the unused holes, above the heat-sink-mounting screws, or using the heat-sink-mounting screws to fasten a retainer-clip over the snap-on mod. The "fixed resistor value", or "swappable resistor", or "tuning pot", attached to the plastic, with the pins protruding for low-pressure contact on the SMT solder-points. (While the original SMT resistor remained in place, unharmed for integrity of the original miner setup.) P.S. Hot-glue is also great to make prefab plastic parts from. Hot-glue guns are essentially mini-injection-extrusion devices, if you tune the heat. |

You can go one page backwards.  Sorry, missed the link above the pic... (You quoted, but left-out the link... Wanted a link to a thread, not just a photo-shoot. Assumed it had its own thread.)  Thanks-again. |

I am sorry but is already done:  Not quite what I said... "snap-on mod"... But great! Works with a tuning-pot. (soldering is not for everyone.) P.S. Got the link to that thread? |

You are joking, right?
(A donation, because I can not guarantee its safety, while "playing with the mod".) No I am not joking. I can assure it will be cared for. I just can not guarantee its safety. Figured that someone-else could use the mod-info, once it was posted. (As opposed to the alternative, which is a great idea BTW.) |

Anyone willing to donate an ANT S1, and I will see about making a simple "snap-on" solution to "tune" the ant-miner a little safer? (A donation, because I can not guarantee its safety, while "playing with the mod".)
Pencil-graphite is not reliable to sustain long-term operation. It will eventually absorb salty humidity, from the air, and fail. (Great for a short-term adjustment. Pun intended.)
You don't want that to fail, and your miner starts to pull full power, overloading your PSU. Or, on the reverse, under-volting too much, causing the amp-draw to rise on the regulator, which could stop them from working.
Would be nice to see a software controlled variable voltage control there, or a hand-tuned pot, for some precision control.
