641  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: How to use ASICMiner Block Erupters with CGMiner on Windows 7 on: October 26, 2013, 10:23:57 PM
I'm running 3.6.4 on win7 64 with about 45 sticks and I'm finding that sometimes when a stick goes zombie all the others go sick. Because of that I started running 4 instances with 12 sticks each as to not affect the hash rate that much. Has this been reported? Is zombie a real zobie and killing everyone :-) Now serious, could it be the thread manager going crazy?

LMAO... Using google translate to explain SXC to an alien culture, with no idea of how it will effect their sensativities...

Join the SXC development team... every day an adventure !

Maybe better off offering a bounty to someone here that can translate everything. 

Way ahead of you.. and the situation is this ...
The chinese who are really into crypto know of SXC. they even love SXC and think it's a great coin, but...
Porn is stricly forbidden... Promotion of SXC could cause major hassles for anybody based in China..
and right while China is undergoing a sexual revolution, and could do with a bit of freedom...


let me know what you want to say and I have it translated :-)

Ummmm.... I'm waiting on some feedback from the other developers on an idea I have to break us into the chinese market... The problem is I want us to be first to do it, If they don't have me commited and heavily medicated first Wink so discretion may be an issue

So can you speak chinese or do you know someone who can ?... I trust you RPG, but I'm a little wary outside of our community...

no, my native language is portuguese. in a previous life I was buying hardware (not computer hardware)  in china and made several good friends I keep in touch via skype
643  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: UPDATED: Estimate of ASIC pre-orders (11,000 to 13,000 TH/s by end of 2013) on: October 26, 2013, 03:25:54 AM
Cointerra is the only one that is competing on price and hash, and this is their V1. I first upgraded 2m GPU to 20M asicminer just to get my ,03 a day. I'll continue to run them until they produce less then 20 cents a day. Looks like I'll have to upgrade again to 200M just to keep up, but I refuse to pay the ongoing prices, in particular the pre-order ones. One thing is to spend a few hundred just to have a hobby, the other is spending thousands These hardware vendors are crazy, they are sure making a kiling. Want to see if they are going to lower their prices to compete with Cointerra  and the much higher diff. Ebay is already flooded with BFL going at bellow the last of their prices. If the network hash is going to run as much as you forecast this is going to stop being a hobby for many to being a big business. Save your BTC, they will become very rare to mine.

where's money that are criminals and there a few of them in this community. Money laundry is for sure a concern of them but not sure if they can find them at the meetings or even here. I assume it would be easy to buy bitcoins with illicit money and cash it elsewhere. Local buys are for sure an opportunity where the fiat leaves no paper trace and shows up as a bitcoin in some country where it can be converted back into fiat. Would not be surprised if local bitcoin sales are done by undercover cops posing as a miner

Oh, the irony.

Also, shielding yourselves from people who hurt your feelings, yet prove you wrong and would save you money if you listened, isn't very wise.

man, you must be on a mission. Whats your agenda, considering the time you're spent on this thread bashing LTC? You remind me of the penny stock bashers on the financial boards that always want to save people from their money while shorting it or working for someone that is shorting it
649  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: [ANN] US/North American Bitfury sales now open ***full prototype pics*** on: October 23, 2013, 02:15:39 AM
no news = bad news.  I wish I got v1 hw with m-boards to actually have a unit to hash with in october.  This is the equivalent to recieving my unit at minium 7-10 days from now.  If you guys can't send it, I'd want my refund on OVN shipping except you'd refund me at the going rate and I would literally only be given a single bitcoin for a peice of hardware that costed me 1.5 btc in shipping.  OK im off my soapbox.

When you buy with bitcoins you are essentially selling them.  So make sure you buy the corresponding number of bitcoins.
When you get a refund you are essentially buying bitcoins.  So sell the corresponding amount.
That way your loss will be minimal.

Ok, now 400M diff is coming up in 2-3 days so you better be ready.  When the pricing for October H-boards was first announced at $350, the difficulty was what? 25-50M?  I don't remember the exact numbers.  But I do remember people on this forum projected 100M to 200M by the end of October.  Those people were flammed, others called them crazy.  

Than after August sold out in hours, the price was jacked up to $500.  But going by what they are really worth, they should be in the $50-$100 range for mining to be marginally profitable.

The problem is that the network is growing faster than anybody anticipated. Today, many believe that network WILL NOT continue on its path up.  Well, guess what, it most likely will.  It will flatten out at some point.  When?  

When everybody and their mother will think it will never flatten out.

Lol. YEs, the only company that increased prices with increased difficulty for those specific cards! Go figure!. Bitfury should stop sucking all miners gains and they should only care about keeping a reasonable USD margin. That's what their business model should be. An engineer friend of mine who works at Intel just saw one of my h-boards a few minutes ago and told me there's no way the marginal cost of that card is more than $100. It's a complete rip off for dummies.

Ask your friend about Intel's pricing model. or, any other company producing a product.

Yup, I did and ... told me it's more cost-based, it's an entirely different industry not aimed to generate miner utility AND they don't normally inflate prices 190% relative to 2 months later. But if you think paying $500 is a fantastic deal go for it. They are still the same number of boards available as yesterday. I guess that should tell you something about the attractiveness of that deal ;-)

it's a pleasure to watch all of these ripoff artists eat their own asic boards. Enough of laughing on their way to the bank
650  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin Breaks 2 Petahashes {GPU Mining Dead} on: October 22, 2013, 09:22:29 PM
Yea, I'm kinda hoping to see it level out soon, but who knows we will have to wait and see how this all plays out

as long as the mining profits - power cost is positive the hobby will continue. If you want to run it as a business you have to keep buying the latest and greatest, the hardware companies are thankful, paper weight companies maybe in trouble.
651  Bitcoin / Group buys / Re: [OPEN IN-STOCK SHIPPING] batch #30/31 .035 btc @ 50 USB + 1.1 btc Blade miners on: October 22, 2013, 07:07:03 PM
Next batch pricing:

10/22/2013: USB miner price is 1.75 btc for 50 units.  Blades are 1.1 btc each. 10 blades get a backplane (while supplies last)

At this point, for sanity reasons, I'm resorting to selling USB miners in 50 unit minimum quantity.  50 units fits region A box (save $$ on shipping label)

Disclaimer: if inventory becomes an issue (especially on USB miners) shipping could be delayed, but I'll do my best to post a warning if it gets depleted.  Right now stocks are good.

As if on queue canary lowers his price to 1.1 btc...hours after I said they were too expensive lol

not to run over your business but since you're only selling in batches of 50 it will not affect it. Let me know otherwise and I delete it, but for small buyers like me, just bought on ebay 10 units for $80 + 6 in shipping. I offered, maybe he even takes lower offers, i don't know, I don't who the guy is so don't claim I'm doing advertisement for him http://www.ebay.com/itm/281193156030?item=281193156030&autorefresh=true
Looks like that's SSB

so all stays in the family.

Received: from unknown (HELO p3plibsmtp01-10.prod.phx3.secureserver.net) ([10.6.12.197])

are you sure? i think its coming right from the godaddy network. I bet Godaddy email servers are not relaying, as such they would not be accepting emails from india to send to google.

So some computer at godaddy has been hacked or has a internet facing web server that allows HTTP proxies where an email can be sent using socks. A bot on another computer can also scan the internal network for web servers of course.

10.6.12.197 is a private address part of 10.6 that are used in many internal networks

All the other headers down are trash, they are inserted on purpose

Should godaddy be made aware they are sending spam?


EDIT: of course rugatu.com can be owned by our friend and he has an email forward to google. Forgot abut that possibility

according to exponential growth I have no doubt its heading to 1000 within a year,

at that point which alts do you think would survive aka not worth like 1/10 value of the current price.

I think the Below Quote is the most important part of the highly negative article and is helping BTC.


http://www.pcworld.com/article/2056281/bitcoins-viability-is-threatened-criminal-use-mcafee-warns.html

""Bitcoin can't technically be closed down but the warning is clear; legitimate users (and there are many of those, it should be pointed out) are taking a risk.

"Virtual currencies will not go away.""


 Wink

the community has to eradicate criminals and opportunistic individuals. Look at the killing hardware vendors have been making, pre selling a product not for it's worth  but for what the difficulty of the day justifies and scamming buyers in the process. Looks at the mining contracts on Ebay that sell for several times the value that can be mined. Look at the bot nets that mine in pools. Look at some pools that are all but honest. Look at the scam ALT coins that filled the pockets of the creators.

The vast majority of us are honest people, but we've been played by those criminals and scammers!!!!! Its time to say ENOUGH
659  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Need a PayPal refund for your BFL purchase? on: October 21, 2013, 06:05:23 PM
BTCscraper, did you pay BFL with money in your PayPal balance at the time, or did you have to transfer money from your bank account using PayPal, or did you use a credit card through PayPal? It seems this is the deciding factor whether they will esclate and refund the claim or not.

Only 6.77% of my payment was PP balance, the rest was CC.  I got refunded everything.

In contrast to kill-switch's PP situation, I need PP because I am outside the US and US merchants usually do not accept non-US cards.  PP works when the merchant does not block non-US PP accounts, like BFL gladly did until they stopped accepting PP altogether.
Interesting. I am starting to suspect that those who are successfully getting their refunds are the ones who did not pay with the money that was sitting in their PayPal account. I suspect they either used a credit card or bank transfer from within PayPal.

I got a refund from paypal money
