Every other post is people accusing users of being clones or puppets of other users.
Please we need to brainstorm a way reduce this,
This is a classic divide and conquer technique, not sure who it is being used by. Maybe it is happening naturally. It is not good for btc or this forum though.
Brainstorm your ideas.
This is happening because there is a lot of bad shit happening in the last three months. BTC is getting bigger, more finance-heads are playing old-world fraud games, and people's confidence is being eroded. The hobbyists are feeling taken for a ride, people are losing LOTs of money. Paranoia follows. Paranoia is actually healthy to a limited degree - we need more skepticism to keep BTC stable. |

hey - so I have a bit of an issue. One of my rigs (2x6950, 2x5770) was working fine for months until this morning. I had it offline last night for some maintenance, switching a hard drive - maintenance goes well, no issues and POST is fine after OS install. So I shut it down and go to sleep. Wake up to finish some OS configs and it refuses to POST. None of the usual motherboard beeping, nothing. I didn't move the cards around at all over night - and I've checked cables and slot pressure. The fans spin up but nothing else happens. I've tried taking the 6950s out and running only 5770 and that works, POST is ok. But any number of combinations of 6950 and pcie slots refuses to boot. Even single 6950 cards (tried both) gives no post.
What can I do to troubleshoot this? They're on a Sapphire P67 motherboard which has a diagnostic LED and it prints a code "AB", which might mean "setup input wait", but I have no idea what that means.

CPU mining and BTCGuild works perfectly, but I'd like Deepbit.
It might be actually better to stay at BTCGuild or use smaller pools for CPU mining... "Why?"Because depending on the hash-rate you get on your CPUs at the current difficulty levels, there's a very high chance on the shorter rounds that you may not even get a share in and earn anything at all. Cheers, Kermee Hey Kermee, I have about 3000mhash/s, but I have 2 computers at my work which will get about 50mhash/s (CPU's). Thatswhy I'd like it  Care to share what CPUs these are? I have a 16core opteron 8000 server that puts out around 1.7Mhash per core. I would suggest that you be very careful running server CPUs that are capable of such mhash (I suppose they're something like X5670 or similar Sandy Bridge / Nehalem Xeons, or MagnyCours Opterons) at full 100% speed 24x7 at work. Doing so uses a LOT of electricity and if you aren't paying the bills then you can get fired for mis-appropriation of corporate computing resources. 50mhash/sec ain't worth getting fired over. Careful careful. Anyway, to address your issues, GUI miner (and all miners) require authentication at the pool to get workloads. So I would assume you either don't have any miner accounts setup or you are failing to understand the remarkably simple UI on the mining app that has a form field for username and password along with the mining pool URL. Are you seriously not understanding the method used to login to the pools? |

After watching tshark, poclbm.py output, and tailing the access log for the proxy, I have determined that a low KeepAliveTimeout setting in the Apache config was the culprit.
The KeepAliveTimeout on my server was 3 seconds, and the ask rate was 5. This caused the miner to try to use a KeepAlive session, only to find it timed out. Then it had to establish a new connection. This was giving the connection issues I was seeing.
Essentially what this means is the KeepAliveTimeout setting has to be higher than the ask rate. I would suggest adding a few seconds on top to make sure there's a little wiggle room.
Thanks for the info! I'll add this to the readme, and perhaps to the .htaccess file. In general, is it preferable to configure Apache with KeepAlive enabled or disabled for this proxy? enabled afaik, ymmv |

Heres a nice portable computer!  Or you could just go out and get a gaming laptop!  I'm glad most of figured out this post was meant to be "tongue in cheek", thanks for playing along. Of course, but it would make a great case to mod and replace parts with a mini-atx. |

So you also run an ad agency huh? Interesting... |

Care to go into fine grained detail about EXACTLY how the cold storage works and is architected/engineered? I don't see much useful content on the site regarding the feature, so, being a system architect myself, I would not trust this unless I knew what level of redundancy of service you are using. The following would be good to ensure: - Are the servers (web/app/db/file) setup for High Availability with at least N+2
- Is the core infrastructure network multi-homed and are the servers and switches/routers all setup with bonded/trunked connections
- What RAID level are you running to store the wallet files, with what level of parity(double or triple), and are you employing a file checksum system like Tripwire to ensure any compromised files can be reported on
- What OS are you using on the systems to ensure you aren't hit by a microsoft-only worm or trojan?
- Is your network (on each system and at the border, DMZ, and core) hardened via VLANs, Port Filtering, IDS/IDP
- Are you duplicating/replicating data off-site with encryption on the wire and on the filesystems?
- What is the process/procedure for human interaction with the wallet files and methods used to securely handle their contents?
- What level of SLA are you assuring for this service - since you are dealing with monetary funds (as much as BTC can be defined that way), people will want to be sure they will absolutely get a response to their requests and services within a specific time frame.

I am leaving because mybitcoin took all my btc from two accounts. One account had a embarrassingly large amount of BTC in it.
I sold all my mining graphics cards on feebay.
Live and learn.
Sounds like you took away the negative lesson and not the positive, as in: mybitcoin refunded 49% of the balances, so you didn't lose out in full. But you probably took a loss on your cards which dug you deeper into loss. way to be negative. |

I have to say I think it is more of a money grab to start these chains when bitcoin is still in its infancy. While I guess they want to start before bitcoin has a firm grasp I don't think the market can support all these different online currencies.
The point of all the alternative coins is ONLY TO TRADE FOR BTC, you can't use the alt-coins anywhere and they will die out soon. I feel sorry for the guys buying them all up... trading precious btc for useless ix/iocoins. |

PEOPLE LIKE MONEY. BIG FUCKIN SURPRISE.
Yes and all these people here pretending that bitcoin is or every was more than a money making scam are full of it. I mean really an encryption based project that somehow manages not to take wallet security into account in that equation seriously deserves questioning.. That's a very good point...  |

Have you lifted a rig with 4x GPU cards before? It's not something you want to take on the train with you during the commute.
It's not just the weight. Someone might call the bomb squad. Yeah, once they see all of the led-lights, cables everywhere, and really loud fans going they're sure to notice the "convenient and portable work-briefcase-mining-rig with 4x 6990s". It's a bomb, run!   |

And that is different in pursuing the long term slow play greed of bitcoin how??? It is like being pregnant there is no such thing as a little being better or the a pot meet kettle situation you are describing..
Nice strawman argument, but try again. I did not say x Greedy Impulse is better than y Greedy Impulse. What I did say is that these copy-cats are making Bitcoin more confusing and more prone to shenanigans. It's obvious what Ixcoin and I0coin are trying to do. A person does not go into a store and whip out 5 USD, 0.50 EUR, and 0.163 GBP for a pair of $5.99 sunglasses. "Dang it, you missed out on the ground floor of Bitcoin? Well, get a second chance! Get in on PoopCoin and start off mining 'em twice as fasterer, then trade 'em in for mucho BTCs, baby! WINNING!"Some people aren't into Bitcoin for any mass profit other than to make a few coins (using hardware they already had) to trade for goods/services online in an anarchic, "Fuck you, PayPal." kind of way. Others are gamers who already had kick-ass GPUs who just want to put their hardware to use when not killin' and maimin' Nazis. Some are just into the propellerheadism of it all. It always cracks me up when someone talks of needing to pay off their 50-GPU rig in x months. Dollar $igns in their eyes. |

Not actually true. The code assumes 21 million in many places, not literally that I know of, but this limitation plagued IxCoin in that it would crash in 2015. A second limitation is bitcoin networking can only handle 64-bit integers, so this idea would break in 2.1 trillion years. Wishful thinking, I know . The code assumes 21 million as the maximum number of coins in a single transaction, not as maximum number of coins. Or at least that was what the developers said in some other thread. Maybe one of them will chime in to aknowledge it. 21 million = 21 trillion eurocoins since the decimal point is shifted 6 squares, which will be reached in 240 million years, after that when someone can break it if he controls most of the money. Much later, in 2.1 trillion years, the entire system will cease to function. Sounds totally awesome. We should all ditch our BTC in favor of this superior alternate digital currency. |

My i0coin.exe running in server mode locks up about every 20 mins for no reason. If it is just bitcoin with some words and numbers changes, why the hell is it not a stable...
Gee just read one post up. Work on your reading skill a bit, you may learn more then posting more worthless posts. My issue is totally unrelated to generating addresses you fuck. My i0coin.exe locks up while just sitting there doing nothing but downloading the blockchain. Guess you are just pissed you can't spell malice... And you are probably really pissed that you don't know any grammar whatsoever. 'may learn more then posting more worthless posts' doesn't make any sense. I would say are the one pissed. That is the known case of it locking up. Does not mean more do not exist. Would hardly be suprising now would it. In this case the issue was the exchange coind frezing though was it not? Going to tell me it is not generating new addresses? It makes sense, but not till you improve your ability to comprehend. Neither of you are discussing the topic of the thread, go abuse each other somewhere else. |

so is doubleC just sitting on all our deposited i0coins or is i0exchange going down just the final fail in the coffin for i0coin?
bitparking still works. edit: no, it's not loading again. |
