To answer your question directly, I was told in the beginning to scope and build the project for 10MW. I was then shortly after instructed to build for 3MW (3 1000kva transformers).

I was told that we needed 3MW to facilitate the 4.5PH purchase of S4's from Bitmain so that is what I proceeded to build.

I gave weekly reports of how much BTC the facility earned per day and gave daily/weekly reports on the total zencloud payouts.

There was a point in time where the payouts exceeded the BTC mined in the facility (as you can probably see from my reports in the emails) but the conversions to CashTakers HashStakers (I believe) brought the liability back down and then the whole platform and facility was shut down a couple of days after my exit.

Yes I was aware there was a problem with the business model, the direction of the company, and the way these decisions were being handled. I hoped we were going to make the necessary changes and decisions to rectify the situation in enough time to **fix** the flawed business models, but chose to exit when I lost confidence and trust in Josh to make the right decisions.

Bahahahaha! I forgot about this one.. Yikes that must be some good spray paint!

The 100% stake rate is just one small step in the right direction (Re: solving the hyperinflation issue) but there is still much more to be done in regard to keeping such dumping from happening from Prime Controllers.

The purpose of the Prime Controllers were/is to create opportunities for investors and to be used to support bidding along with providing supporting business models with advantages/incentives for bringing new customers into the industry.

That was probably ketchup from the burger in the background!

Haha

I was offered Prime Controllers that didn't belong to him. This was not my idea (as you can see from the email), although at the time I did consider the deal. Of course (if you read further in the email thread) I couldn't move forward with the deal as I was not comfortable with the situation of someone offering someone else's property as payment. Additionally I declined any future business relationship with Garza in the same thread.

Again, I have been a part (and even led) a business that I have many regrets of and welcome criticism for my actions. It's important to state that I'm not proud of this by any means. During my last couple of months at GAW I became someone I wasn't proud of and considered performing actions that I would have never considered before. This feeling is what led to my exit along with the decision to attempt to rebuild professional relationships with local businesses that were not compensated by GAW for their work during my time at GAW.

Given the opportunity by XPY Dev and the Paycoin Foundation to become a volunteer for XPYTrust was the least I could do to help the community and be a part of building the currency as originally intended. I thought I could begin to help those that lost so much during my time at GAW. My proposal to the Foundation and XPYDev will consist of a large coin burn along with ending the hyperinflation (which is not exactly what the white paper describes Paycoin to be but I feel it is necessary at this point).

Please read my whole post before responding (instead of avoiding to quote my plan to either revive the coin or give up my position).

I will say this once again. I do not own anything (Paycoin or Prime Controllers). Hopefully this is clear. I never owned a Prime Controller. I never owned a single Paycoin (or a fraction of it). I was part of the team that worked on the Paycoin project. I was promised Paycoin among other things but never received any compensation/assets besides my salary while working at GAW (which I assume you have all seen by now).

I am a volunteer on the XPYTrust board which manages 5 Prime Controllers. I am in the process of putting together a bold approach to burn many of the Controller Coins and stake. When this proposal is finished I will present to Paycoin Foundation and XPY Dev for review. The plan consists of some of the items discussed a couple of pages back in this thread referring to a 50% cut of the coin and hyperinflation.

I believe this to be the only approach (if executed correctly) to give Paycoin a chance at survival. I will be offering up my position as a volunteer on the XPYTrust board if this approach (or something similar) fails to be successful and/or gets complete.

XPY has taking a beating (for obvious reasons) and may not be able to stand for much more without such drastic change to the current design.

I pushed a lot of buttons and levers. I also take responsibility for my actions. I will continue truthfully answering questions asked by 3 letter agencies even if it means an undesirable outcome for myself. I enjoy working in this industry and I stay closely in touch with Eric and Jonah. Like Eric, when I became very uncomfortable working in the environment, I stepped down from my role.

I can take a forum beating and completely understand the justification to do so.

I may have not stepped down from my role quick enough in order to properly display my character and integrity as a business leader, and that is something I regret. Hopefully time will heal and mend some of the professional and personal relationships I have built over the last few years. I'm also willing to help out where I can and be more available to do so.

Thanks.

I am inclined to agree that with some modifications to this approach, XPY has a greater chance of survival upon successful implementation.

It seems like you have the right config but that one of your Fury's isn't getting the right amount of power. Can you try a few different power combinations? If this doesn't work, just try the non working device alone. If this doesn't work, the unit may need to be RMA'd. This is handled through gawminers.com and/or orders@gawminers.com.

Hi. Currently, Zeus and GAW Miners are working on a newer firmware/cgminer that should solve some hash rate fluctuation issues. We will also submit this to zenMiner when the testing is done so that your ZenControllers will receive the automatic silent update.

I just wanted to let you all know that we are aware of this and actively working on a solution.

Thanks.

Linked is the source, some config examples, and binaries for Windows and Raspberry Pi.

@JHammer, I believe I saw a support ticket referring to this and forwarded on my knowledge concerning this. This should not be an issue. If so, let's keep it in the ticket for better tracking.

It is difficult to poll the forums for things like this as it increases in size

Hello!
We now support NiceHash.com on our hosted cloud hashing service. Enjoy!
If you have any issues please contact us at support@gawminers.com

Hi. We are aware of this and working on it at this moment.

Thanks!

Hi, this is 20 blades. Each blade has 2 physical usb devices so it shows as 40 in cgminer/bfgminer.

Here is the compiled cgminer for Raspberry Pi that supports Gridseed: http://0c31ac7857e819701732-7c102875f448c5383a11c1d07426cb3e.r86.cf1.rackcdn.com/cgminer

Here is the source: https://github.com/jmordica/cgminer-gc3355

chips=40 for blade and chips=5 for 5-chip.

Tim, I've opened a ticket on your behalf and will be taking a look at your order. Anyone that has order questions please contact support@gawminers.com.

Thanks.
