You should post the binaries for the fork soon Wink

Plan to do so tomorrow. Today is my one year anniversary with my girlfriend, so I'll be busy (whenever she decides to wake up).

1142  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: New to mining Bitcoin...what MH/s rate should I expect? on: August 27, 2014, 01:54:16 AM
I recently started mining bitcoin through Slush's pool and am just wondering what MH/s rate I should be expecting and if there was anything I could do to speed it up.  I'm not a tech guru and have it set up on my Imac that has a 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor and a ATI Raedon HD 4850 512mb Graphics card.  The maximum rate I've been getting is about 40-41 MH/s.  Is this par for the course for the limited hardware I have and is there anything I can do to speed it up?  Thanks.

Most people will tell you that you're wasting your time.

HOWEVER...

It's very important that you are interested in actually mining Bitcoin. It's great to be enthused. I'm glad you were able to get things going. Your hashrate is extremely low for Bitcoin; Mining with a GPU or CPU is now just unfeasible, and so ASICs (Application Specific Integrated Circuits) are the most common solution for this. You buy an ASIC, plug it in, and presto! Many hashes (Exceedingly more than what you're getting).

My suggestion to you is that you should look around here for a while; Check out the Hardware section of the forum, and just plain ask around before deciding that you want to mine for BTC. If you have any questions, feel free to PM me!

Good luck, and welcome!

       4000 RMB FOR 28m

IN USD please? I can't be assed to google lol.

4000 RMB is roughly 650 USD.

Hey all,

We will be implementing our merged mining solution for GreenCoin soon - in fact, we've set the block that it is to occur to be 125,000. I don't see any reason for us to have to move it, and we will let everyone know as soon as the new version is pushed out.

We will be merged mineable with Dogecoin, Litecoin, and MyriadCoin. We are very happy to be working with MyriadCoin as a part of their PolyMYR project, a new multi-algorithm merged mining multi pool (which will effectively mean that you can mine GRE with SHA-256, and other algorithms).

As we move forward, we welcome any and all criticisms, questions, and concerns. I've been working with a developer from the  Dogecoin community and I'm very excited to see this step for GreenCoin. Thanks all!

My best guess is it's an MS-64 judging from all the little nicks and scratches on the front.

I'll offer you 1.4 for it.

I'm not going to sell it for less than I bought it for.  Would just keep it.

how much did you buy it for?

I'd have to do the conversion... but traded 60 oz of silver and 1 oz of palladium for it.

Isn't that way over 1200 USD?

On topic of vanitygen there are a lot of scammers out there and your private key may be compromised. Best avoided imo.

Thank you for pointing this out.

If you have somebody make a vanity address, like one for me might be 1Bitsaurus..... , you need to be aware of the fact that they will have access to your private key and can potentially take the coins sent to that address at any time.  There are solutions to this but you must read up it.  Also assume the person generating the address for you is a crook unless they have some well establish history of being trustworthy.

If I download my own program to generate my own private key, lets say i want to make it 5GuysBurgers0e9fj30fja0f blah blah blah ETC...

So I have a decent computer, 2nd fastest i7 processor at the time(from about 2 years ago) and I have a HD 6870 graphics card.

Do you think that is decent enough to make my own vanity address from a program and if so what program? Like are we talking 2 hours to make one address with what I got or 20 hours or days and days? I am trying to get a feel for if this makes any sense or not. If I make my own I assume I do not risk any private keys??

The time it takes is completely dependent on the number of characters i.e. complexity.

I created one with 1Pandas and it took 2 hours with a 4 GHz i7.

Since it's in a case that appears that allows it to roll around on the edges, I don't understand how it could be so highly graded.

Does it have an ACTUAL grade? I didn't see one anywhere on here.

This is mentioned further up, and is referred to as split key generation - just for people who stumble here, split key generation means that whoever generates the vanity address for you does not own the private key.

It's safe - just needs a middleman. Which is great.

Nice job on the talk panda and this press piece was very nice!

Here's a shot of a graph that'll be a part of the coming website (sorry for the delays, it'll be very soon now):




The people who wrote this piece are who I've had the interview with this afternoon. It will be available at the beginning of next week.
1152  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][GRE] GreenCoin | Going to Cryptolina on: August 16, 2014, 12:45:57 AM
Cryptolina has been a definite success - I definitely enjoyed speaking and answering questions from the people sitting in the audience.

Some great news:
I met with someone from my university at the event who has a PhD in Computer Science that told me his company has funding for research and projects in the cryptocurrency field; this means that as I work with him in the coming weeks, his business is willing to help fund the projects that GreenCoin has established. This is a definite plus for the community!

Tomorrow I'll be going back and meeting with the editor of "ExitEvent" for a video interview regarding GreenCoin.

Also, we've set up a 500k GRE bounty to any producer who offers to sign up this weekend. Be sure to tweet / message anyone you know who creates renewable energy. Thanks all!

Holy cow man, this is GREAT news.....good job brother!!

Glad you had a good time too:-)

Will we be able to see the upcoming video review?

I'm not entirely sure. I'll let you know as soon as I do.

Does your company accept escrow? This seems to be WELL below market price.

1156  Economy / Computer hardware / Re: Gridseed G-Blade SALE only 0.5 BTC! As Long As Supply Lasts!! on: August 14, 2014, 07:15:58 PM
but when will the miner arrive? Miners need their hardware NOW! we deliver in the US in just one week and the rest of the world in just 4 weeks max.!

0.5 BTC is a very good deal. with a bitcoin price of $580, that's just $290. Try buying a GPU for that money and see if you get it to even close to 1 MH... The G-Blade has almost 6 MH/s.

580? Please stay current with your prices.
1157  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][GRE] GreenCoin | Going to Cryptolina on: August 13, 2014, 02:09:45 PM
Hi,

I just paid out all of the pool's funds to their miners.

Sorry I had to close the pool, I was left a lone by the staff on an unfinished network and I lack the time of fixing or even finishing it while keeping up the pool's integrity..

However, maybe we will see us again on a bigger, better, faster and stronger setup Smiley

Cheers,
f0o

We appreciate you working with us for as long as you did. If it was a problem on our end (I don't believe it was?) then we'd like you to let us know so that we can improve.

Let us know if there is anything at all that we can help you with moving forward!

Ah, didn't see it. Thanks.

I can do 0.03.
1159  Economy / Auctions / Re: PRICE LOWERED Lot of 5 gridseed 5 chip pods total 1.5MH/s on: August 13, 2014, 04:05:27 AM

I'm not interested in these units much at all. Just hoping that you can earn some money with these and get everything with curiousminer figured out.

It says minimum bid change is 0.05, is this correct? I would bid 0.015, but I don't want to place an invalid bid. It just seems like an awfully high jump.

Good luck
