I can't get the LPM firmware to load on my S19's
Bear in mind my S19's had original June 2020 firmware on them
I got the 17MB intermediary firmware loaded ANTMINER-S19-release-202111161922.bmu
But when I try and load Antminer-S19-merge-release-20221227070716.bmu it just says its uploading and installing, but it doesn't install, it just refreshes the page an doesn't reboot the miner and the logs/screens don't indicate any change.
Was there an earlier release? If so can someone please link me?

Or if you are mining solo with USB stick miner you can have a chance to win a block with 6.25btc plus mining fees.
I honestly don't think anyone would ever succeed... And yet thats exactly what people have managed. Relatively recently even. |

Hi, how was your experience in Canada with D-Central? i need to repair 7 antminer s17 +
They have the miners, but ETA for the repair is in November, so I won't know before then. Cost to repair each miner is roughly what I paid for the miner in the first place. Update, the miners are finally repaired. Only took 11 months. But of course now they are almost worthless  Plus I don't really know if they are repaired, only that they say they are repaired, I trust them but a lot can happen between them shipping and me seeing them hashing again. Will continue to update |

i know the authorized reseller too - i ordered the 7port usb hub there last time  unfortunately the usb miner i was looking for is not available at the moment...  must have to be patient, which is perhaps also better... because then perhaps the BTC price rises and i must then pay less satoshis from me  edit: maybe someone from Bitshopper.de is also registered here and can give more information? I've found them quite responsive to emails |

There's no "memory" in probabilities.
The chance of finding a block is the same every time (given same difficulty).
The fact that a block was found right now doesn't mean the next one can't be found right after (or even at the same time).
It's like saying the probability of getting a 6 in a dice roll changes if you just got a 6. It doesn't. It's still 1/6 for the next roll as well.
well thanks for the lesson in how PoW mining works lol but while you are correct that the chance of finding a block is the same every time (given same diff), this is precisely the reason you are also wrong. That is not how probability theory works. Your analogy is flawed. Probability = Number of desired outcomes / Number of possible outcomes.....so in this case, rolling a die and getting a 6 is indeed 1/6 But since the second event is independent of the first (i.e. the outcome of one event has no effect on the probability of the second event), then the formula becomes... Probability of both = Probability of outcome 1 x Probability of outcome 2.....so actually the chances of a 6 being rolled consecutively are (1/6)(1/6)=1/36 Sorry, class is dismissed now No but really, no hard feelings. I love math so believe me, I've thought about stuff like this many times in my life. Anyhow, with the chance of finding a block in btc mining being so low (without a substantial amount of the network hashrate), the chance of finding two in any short time frame is very very low....but it isn't impossible which is why it does happen from time to time. Take care my fellow miner!  Actually you are mistaken, the second formula you have given is the probability of rolling two sixes simultaneously with TWO dice, not rolling a 6 consecutively. |

No idea about the phone number thing though, they don't have my phone number and I run the discord channels for the pool.
Maybe that changed after I joined?
Yeah its a new thing (last 7 months), don't think it happens to everyone, and not sure if its a requirement for new signups. Its a flag that can be set on the server as well, but discord mainly use it for account verification. It can happen at any time apparently, I don't have it on mine but then I only use discord for three channels and don't game on it. |
