Hello everyone!

this is Hache from Krater.

Krater is building a Marketplace that helps data centers and cryptocurrency miners to connect seamlessly. For this we leverage our SaaS that helps monitor and manage mining operations.

Our software enables data centers to become more efficient by automating most of the manual tasks that plague them when dealing with numerous crypto mining customers, including automating energy calculations (either directly from the machines' API or from Smart PDUs) and processing payments for hosting without the need of human intervention (web3 crypto or fiat).

It also provides dashboards for customers or investors to keep track on the performance of their machines, and perform management tasks themselves like restarts or pool changes.

If you are running a farm and are interested in getting access to our demo accounts or would like to try us out in your farm, send me a DM!

Here are some screenshots of the dashboards for both data centers and for mining customers.








Happy mining!

Wow! Insane work!! are you guys still taking retail miners or what's your MOQ?

We might have a solution to offer you to test for free if you want to automate most tasks related to monitoring, calculating consumptions for each customer, invoicing, payments processing.

If you wanna have a chat, write me DM.

Best of luck!

Are you guys aiming to offer retails customers hosting services? or just mining for yourselves?

Hi,

we are experienced miners and are building a software that can help you even offer hosting to retail miners if you so wish. We also have contacts with locations that might be able to host you without you having to invest CapEx in your infrastructure.

Contact me via PM if you are interested.

Man, really sorry. Depending on your location I might be able to recommend you a service center. S17+ is absolute rubbish and this problem with heatsinks falling off taking the chips with them is well known. It's really difficult to repair those machines.

Well, in that case, I am sorry and it should be up to the moderators to decide.

However let me point out that YES, you as a small sized miners are precisely the people who we are looking to facilitate mining. Most Data Centers do not accept small MOQs because they cannot deal with the manual work of calculating consumptions and managing the support requests. We eliminate all those frictions by automating all processes (invoicing, maintenance/restarts, pool selection) and eliminating the pain points that plague Data Centers. The miner doesn't need to write support tickets anymore to change pools, changing pools doesn't make the providers' life more difficult when making invoices.

We are looking to democratize the mining space for the small sized miners. Because we are small sized miners ourselves and used to be shareholders of a hosting provider that faced all the problems of attending retail.

Hi everyone,

I am a miner since 2013 and last year I founded a company called Krater Tech. We are building a marketplace that helps data centers to better monetize on their infrastructure by enabling them to connect with hardware suppliers and end users through proprietary technology that automates all processes involved in mining.

The software can monitor machines performance (algorithm agnostic), measure energy consumption with high precision, produce invoices and process payments between customers and hosting providers. We have already 2000 machines under monitoring in 3 different locations and have been using the software ourselves as customers for months without problems.

At the moment, we are looking for data center/hosting providers who would like to serve retail miners, but so far have not found a solution for the "manual invoice" nightmare of serving a big numbers of retailers, or hosting providers who are looking for a solution to improve their processes and would like to test our software for free for 3 months.

This is not an advertisement as we are just looking for partners that would like to try for free and help us polish our product, but please let me know if this post is not allowed here. I read the rules of this section and didn't find anything against it.

If you are interested or know operators that might be interested, shoot me a PM and we'll take it from there.

If you have any questions, I am glad to answer all of them below.

Best regards,

Hache.

hi everyone!

I managed to log into the miner over serial. After that I created the RSA Key without the -y argument, because the file didn't previously exist. That created the dropbear_rsa_host_key succesfully. However upon reboot I am unable to SSH into the miner. I can SSH into the miner if I do and then ssh into the miner from another computer in the network.

I started investigating and found /etc/default/dropbear and /config/dropbear. Those two files contain only a line "NO_START=1". I changed both to "NO_START=0" but it didn't work. After restarting the miner, both files will show "NO_START=1" again.

I cannot for the life of me find out what other process or init script is chaging those files and making the dropbear not start appropriately.

Can someone give me a hand, please?

EDIT: I tried editing /etc/init.d/bitmainer_setup.sh and comment out all the lines referring to dropbear and the config files. Doesn't work. After reboot it gets back to the original state.

I cannot find the init script that makes that file go back to its original state disabling dropbear init script.

I don't think there's much you can do besides asking fellow investors to put a price on the head of Lubinsky until he starts forcing the users and landlords to use Rentberry that they directly provide. This means integrate rentberry with fiat payments and start buying the token themselves. But obviously they used the money to buy new office space and expand their business and NOBODY uses the token and they don't give a fuck.

Have you guys heard IRM want to open a Miner Hosting Service using the infrastructure paid by the ICO investors?

And lost all you had... 

Started 2013 mining and selling for cash.

Loved it for political reasons. I think crypto is the future of money.

I find it pretty sad, that although so many of us got into it for these reasons, people just use at as get rich quick scheme nowadays.

The whole idea of being your own bank, ruling over your money, your money not losing value and being the fastest and most secure money in history has apparently lost its meaning in 2017-18

  What did we do wrong?

If you have no experience with this case why do you come to diss about it? Let people do whatever they want. You are not contributing at all with your comment. I wrote them and got my money. Maybe any of these people can get their money back too.

Telegram? What do you mean Telegram?

This is the E-Mail I got:


This is what I got and I prefered to get the money, even though I wasn't getting the costs (around 500€) of the small claims case in UK... fuck it. I got my money and never looked back! Time proved me right and 29th Dec 2018, there's no video and they haven't shipped shit.

Just write emails to payments@alpha-t.net (I think that’s the emails but recheck) and ask for refund. I went through all the small claims case with UK justice and won it, but never got the costs paid by Akram. You might ne able to get a refund if you threat with legal actions.

Akram told me last year he was able to return the money cause the money was free now that the chips were finished and that he was going to deliver the devices soon. I will post email.

None of that. No terrorism.

I got my money back after I visited personally the father's and brother's accountancy company in Manchester. No calls, just showed up. They said the whole family broke up ties with Mohammed Akram because of this story. It was kind of sad. I wrote Mohammed again a couple days later and got something like 80% refunded (I don't remember correctly anymore).

The guy just got fucked over by Dexcel, the company building the chips. Did he finally deliver any of the miners?

Token.store

I don't see a scam. The numbers they give for ROI are possible, but improbable.However they have installed new cabling for the power demand of the miners already, ordered 500 S9 Miners (only 10% of the investment for miners, like the majority of token holders voted) and are gonna get the new Bitmain model as soon as it comes out. They might not be the most experienced guys in this business but they seem legit.

The level of humidity would only be a problem if your devices get cold and condense the water, which will never happen if they are on 100% of the time, which is the case in a mining facility. I run back in 2013 around 7 GPUs on 2 computers on my balcony during 7months nov 2013 through may 2014 and they were outside. It didn't matter how cold or how much humidity, the flow of air and the higher temperature of the devices in relation to the environment avoids any kind of condensation problems that could damage the circuits. Actually high levels of humidity would only help dissipate heat better since humid air is more difficult to change its temperature (specific heat).

I keep buying tokens at 0,32$-0,34$ since weeks, enjoying the low prices. Once we get out of the bear market and the miners are running, this could be a very good business. Calling it "a scam" is dumb and unfounded. Bitconnect was a scam. This is just another young project with a sales pitch that was improbable, but if you do your own calculation, you know that you can get your ROI in a longer period of time, which for me is perfectly fine, specially if I got the tokens at 1/3 price of the ICO.

Why would Tsipras be in that picture?

Mullick noticed the Backdoor and committed changes to the code of Lucky7Coin on Apr. 23rd 2015... 9months after the theft and one month after Dooglus had reported it. TorCoin also had the same backdoor implemented and it was stopped being developed the same week the Lucky7Coin "new" developer hit the jackpot with Cryptsy on July 29th 2014. Now this might lead to think:

A: TorCoin and Lucky7Coin new developer are the same person/group. (and they really got lucky with the fucking coin )

B: Mullick (if he was the wallet guy like some of u say here) didn't notice about the backdoor until 9 months after the theft... I hope by then they had connected the dots.

C: They had no clue what had hit them in July 2014... maybe the reason why they never reported it to the police. They could not know what the hell had happened.

My question is: Why are the BTC unspent? Have the guys been living on the LTC? I have tried to follow the LTC a bit, but my complete noobness in regard to blockchain investigation makes me just see millions of transactions with big numbers and can't see a pattern... Well there's a pattern... the LTC is transferred to 1 Address. From there it is partitioned pretty equally twice. After that is too complex for me.
