So with solo mining does your miner pick a random unsolved block and try to solve some mathematical equation? Same as with pooled mining but you keep most of the reward?
Close...

We're always trying to solve the same unsolved block with different random data with a mathematical function in order to generate a block worth of bitcoin into a particular address, usually the pool's address. In this special pool variant you're actually trying to generate the bitcoin into your own address (hence why you have to use a bitcoin address as your username).

I have always questioned how mining works here. I know that every miner is attaching a nonce in order to hash a block, but how is that nonce determined? Is it just a normal increment? For example my miner starts with nonce 0000001 then 0000002 then 0000003 and so on. Do all miners hash like this?

Everything was going good and our designs prove to be able to hash better than any unit out there now.
..........
The miners are designed to be 2U rackable and datacenter ready @ 10TH/s per unit with around 4,000 Watts at the wall. This could perhaps fund our next generation of miners.

Where is the proof? I am sure that you will easily find investors if you have chips that can run at 0.4W/GH.

Tell me someone please, how does AMHash have so low maintenance? Bitmain has 28nm miners, lower power consumption, but their maintenenance 40% more (0.69 vs 0.49 $/Ghs/month).
I respect FC, but last time some huge companies start to play against the rool (KNC, Bitmine, BFL), so its disturbing question

I think thats because they operate it in Hongkong whick provide cheap electricity plus they installled huge cooling immersion system. This shstem is saving more energy than other cooling system Smiley

At the cost of a huge upfront cost which is amortized in a couple of years.

The Moderator team isn't applying its rules evenly across all segments. While I understand their is some kind of allowance for discretion...it isn't discretion when the rules are applied harshly against one company and not applied towards another.

C'mon I thought we have established that this is a "free-for-all" forum. While I have questioned the forums rules in the past I have come to the conclusion that the mods/admins have acted in a proper manner whether you like it or not. Try to look at everything from another angle than yours.

I would be happy if someone from asicminer would just offer me replacement of the bad boards. I've lost downtime but it will be more loss without any hashes. Overall this was more of a test run to see if it was worthy to order in bulk. The ones that do run, run well.

I had a board go out on a tube.
I contacted support and they told me to ship it back and they'd replace it.

My experience with AM support has been pretty amazing.


WOW, I have 4 bad boards I have emailed sales@, PM'd, etc..  NOTHING! Not to mention OH JOY I get to pay $100+ to ship back garbage that should have been bench tested. GR8 sales support right, right, sure, sure.. BS half-a$$ @ best and the hardware is junk.

You are not a shareholder.

It is a bit power hungry but no more than necessary i'd say.

Got any other questions bud?

Please post hashrate and power usage!

It was said at the outset of the venture, that monies taken would be used to produce more miners, not paid out in divs.

And this can't be an infinite loop because...?

i know paid shills against bitcoins, but who pays you - there is someone paying you 100% certain

Satoshi!

Now really...FC is allowing me to exist. Without him I am nothing.

50 000 bitcoin auction... i expected bitcoin to drop hard, but it seems it didn't..
Wondering if the drop because of this news-item is still coming.
(How many bitcoins were in the last auction - was it 30 000?)

Why are you assuming this? Do you think every bidder has time to prepare? What if they wish to remain anonymous? They cant bid...

I have a "stupid" question. A regular 1PH pool should find a block every ~2 days. Let's say the pool gets to a total of 1PH from 1000 miners with 1Th/s. Does this mean that every 2 days on average a 1TH/s miner should find a block? If not then what's the difference between a regular 1PH pool that finds a block every ~2 days and this pool?
1152  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: Mining Asics Technoligies Question? on: November 16, 2014, 01:13:45 PM
Having a couple of units while there are so many unanswered questions is still a BIG RED FLAG! Don't get fooled!

Until now Marc is telling a lot of lies it is time to start telling the truth about MAT!
First of all nobody fired me, I am one of the Ex co –founders MAT and I have left the company already in June 2014. This summer Marc kicked out his other 2 founding partners with lies and gave them false informations about MAT.

Since June MAT is only a 1 men show by Marc Coumans.

The actual lie from Marc Coumans is that the Excalibur miners are 28nm, that’s not true the Excalibur miners have only a 40nm technology. If they would have a 28 nm technology the spec. and power consumption would be almost the same as the KNC Titan.

Since several months MAT has no money for customer refunds, and there are still not enough miners and asics produced to serve all customers.
There are only asics and miners produced for about 25% of all customers and not more.

GAW miner received the last days already u huge quantity of miners from MAT too. These are miners from customer orders, which customers ordered and paid for long time ago.
So Marc Coumans sold these miners a second time to GAW miner.
Thats the reason why there are no more miners available for shipping to customers.

I mined with CPU's and GPU's, turned everything off once asic's came online.

Ok confess time! How many bitcoins are you hodling? Are you gentleman?
1156  Economy / Securities / Re: ASICMINER: Entering the Future of ASIC Mining by Inventing It on: November 12, 2014, 10:03:41 PM
to offload some work load and some ships that would potentially be redundant in a month or so due to future power reductions.....  Roll Eyes

What work load? The only workload is to design, assemble and ship miners. Nothing extra compared to 2013 when AM was designing, assembling and shipping miners.
1157  Economy / Securities / Re: ASICMINER: Entering the Future of ASIC Mining by Inventing It on: November 12, 2014, 06:26:48 PM
they sold batches of chips before getting newer batches with a different mask if i remember correctly, something to do with better efficiency? which i would presume what we are seeing with the  prisma.

Why sell the chips when you can build miners?
1158  Economy / Securities / Re: ASICMINER: Entering the Future of ASIC Mining by Inventing It on: November 12, 2014, 05:28:12 PM
It was posted for gen1 chips: http://www.asicminercharts.com/live/

That was an unofficial site created by SmiGueL.

And he was getting the information from the newspaper? There was some kind of official information about the hashrate because otherwise how could he create the site? I am sure he wasn't making up the hashrate posted there.

SmiGueL was only following the number of blocks found per day and new bitcoins received on AM mining address (1HtUGfbDcMzTeHWx2Dbgnhc6kYnj1Hp24i)

So that means that AM published their mining address. So there was some kind of official info. SmiGueL didn't came up with the information out of thin air. There is no official mining address right now. Nobody knows in what address is AM mining right now.

I have stated in the past that FC found out a method to get money out of the company without paying the shareholders (hint: rockxie mining), but you bashed me back then. I am glad to see you coming back to earth.

I "bashed" you back then for good reason. Talking complete bollocks. Which you are doing again. There's no evidence whatsoever to suggest that AM have been funnelling money out the back door. What I said was that their management, sales, support and PR are crap, not that AM is corrupt.

What you are claiming is that supplying a customer with the product you sell is corruption. The stupidity that comes out of your mouth is truly amazing.

You got it wrong as always. I never stated that AM are funneling money of of the back door. They found a way to funnel money in plain sight. Let me put it another way:

AM sold chips to Rockxie who assembled miners and sold them. The profit from the miners went to Rockxie, not to AM. AM only got money for the chips. But AM could skip Rockxie and create their own miners and this way they could take profits from both chips and full miners. AM was able to create and distribute full miners in the past and I don't understand why now they had to use Rockxie. The profit made by Rockxie stayed with Rockxie, not with AM. Of course AM made a small profit with the chips, but I think that profit is smaller than the profit from the full miners. By creating their own miners AM could cash in more profit in my view. Please correct me if I am wrong here.

Is this connected to the regular p2pool network or your own p2pool like network?

Confirming.

Confirming what exactly? I don't get it.
