Doge has NEVER gone up after a halving.  So, if history is any guide...

bump

I concur.  I was a very large LTC holder until a few days ago when I sold a sizeable onto BTC-E.  I had lost my faith long ago in the coin but the last couple of weeks were the tipping point for me.  I was holding out hoping that things would turn around until I realized this:  LTC has ZERO advantages over BTC any longer since ASICS are in the wild.

The entire point of LTC was that it offered the everyday person a way to attain coins via GPU mining.  With that feature gone, what good is LTC??  BTC is gaining traction daily.  It is being accepted by more and more merchants.  If one mentions Bitcoin to the average Joe they probably couldn't tell you what it is but they have probably heard of it before.  Not so with LTC or any of the other alts out there.

LTC has a great Dev team along with a great community.  But it has already peaked.  I feel sorry for those that are blindly following the advice that some members of the LTC community are giving in so far as telling them that "it's the right time to buy now!" or "Your crazy if you sell now".  I shake my head when I see stuff like this.  There is no justifiable reason for LTC to go anywhere but down at this point.  It's a sad thing to have to say as I put a ton of money/time into it but I have a pretty good history of being in business for myself and I know when enough is enough and it's time to cut my loses.  This is one of those times.

I cant bench them. I can say they have zero hardware errors according to cgminer and I have never had any problems with this batch as far as mining goes.

Ill do a 7 day warranty policy (return shipping paid by buyer) on them to give anyone time to test with them.

Breaking down the GPU farm.  All of these were purchased brand new by me from Newegg back in January.  All were kept in a temperature controlled space that was never above 72F ambient.  All are in excellent working condition with full retail boxes and all included accessories.  I have twelve Sapphire R9 280Xs and four MSI R9 280Xs.  Price is $190 + shipping for each card no matter the brand.  Of course LTC/BTC is the preferred payment.  I have linked my Heatware and eBay feedback profiles to the post below so that you can see than I have ZERO negative feedback.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Doge is done.  The next halvening will really put the hurt on it as more and more miners will be getting out.  But that isn't even its real problem.  Its problem is that there is NO DEMAND for the coin.  That is why the price continues its steady decline.  

I think its the community that ended up killing it.  The reddit sub is full of a bunch of wannabe hippies posting pictures of doges, moons, and other general bullshit.  No one is ever going to take that coin seriously.  That is the main reason behinds it's demise.  It started off from a joke and its still a joke.

I fixed my problems if anyone is having similar issues with low hashrates on 7950s when mining X11 coins.  I couldn't get any of my 7950s above ~650kh/s running Xubuntu 12.10.

I had to uninstall every trace of Catalyst drivers and then install the latest Catalyst Drivers from AMD (14.4 at time of this post).  I was running much older 12.9 Catalyst.  I then had to compile sph-sgminer from source which is no small feat tracking down all the damn dependencies.  

At any rate, that fixed it.  I'm now getting 1.6Mh/s+ from each 7950 without hardly any tweaking.

Nope that didn't work either.  I think I am down to trying to update the drivers now I guess.

I'm having issues with my 7950 rigs.  No matter what I try, none of my 7950 cards (all 16 of them) will run above ~600Kh/s.  Here is my current command line:


I'm seeing people getting ~1.5Mh/s+ with the above settings but I can't seem to replicate it.  The only thing I haven't tried upgrading the drivers.  I'm on Catalyst 12.9 running Xubuntu 12.10.

Any ideas?  I think I'm basically down to upgrading the drivers but I wanted to get some input before I go down that long road with Linux and mining cards...

I use Mintpal for Doge buying/selling.  I would avoid Cryptsy at all costs.  I still have a ticket open for missing Aurora Coin deposits back from February.

Only because of the WC.  As soon as it goes to PoS prices will probably dip back down.

Evenutually someone will come along and crush Betarigs that knows how to put a site together and actually takes our feedback of how to make it better.  Mux would rather work with the criminals over at Dedicated Pools than to put real innovation into this site.

 

Can you say rainbows and unicorns??

If those coins are worthless, than what does it matter if you use less heat, noise, and power???

I enjoy seeing people like the OP getting pounded into the dirt when they eventually pick fights they can't win.

What a loser.  I bet he jacks off to pictures of his mother...

The bottom line is that they want cryptos to simply go away.  The IRS (U.S. Government) doesn't like cryptos.  The crooks at the banks don't like cryptos.  The politicians that accept political donations from these same banks don't like cryptos.  They are well aware that it will be nearly impossible for miners to keep up with the daily exchange rate of every single coin we mine.  With the threat of fines/penalties/prison time for not keeping up with all this paperwork, they are hoping that people will simply give up.

It's actually a pretty smart plan.  The public sees the government as embracing cryptos.  After all, they are telling us we can have our cryptos so long as the government gets it's fair share.  Seems pretty rational doesn't it?  However, the public has no idea the paperwork that would be required to actually fulfill that obligation.  The IRS is fully aware of this.

As great of an idea BetaRigs is, the backend management system is dreadful.  A good designer that has business expierence could really put the hurt on Betarigs if they were so inclined to startup their own rig renting service.

Mux would rather be working with the crooks over at Dedicated Pools than to our address our issues here in this thread.

Notice a lot of the people on other multipools saying their rigs have been hijacked due to a bug in the stratum reconnect command that allows a hijacker to redirect the miner to another pool.

I'm still not sure how the attack is initiated in the first place unless there is an additional security exploit on the server side that allows the reconnect to happen.  It appears that no one on ScryptGuild has complained about this. 

Better explanation than I could come up with, Eleuthria.  Thanks for that.

This gentlemen runs ScryptGuild so he has an intricate knowledge of how multipools work in the first place.

Always been like what? KGW and DigiShield are brand new.  Coin devs implementing those techs prevent multipools from mining them (or at the very least make it very difficult). Also just because new multipools are still popping up doesnt mean anything. There a plenty of people that make it to the party late in every business venture. In fact, its been my experience that by the time an idea catches onto the masses, its too late!

I never said individuals couldnt pump and dump. But if you think you can "set and forget" your mining rig on a coin switcher and expect great results like we use to, you are mistaking.
