6581  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][LSK] Lisk | Blockchain Application Platform for JavaScript Developers on: June 22, 2019, 03:00:00 PM
Has anyone had any difficulty connecting tonight? I opened lisk hub and signed in and it just sits there doing nothing.
Tried the create new account and same.
Reboot PC and try again, same.

I figure it's either my internet connection / DNS issue or it's elsewhere and everyone is having issues.

Thanks,
Dave

The system is working for me without an issue. Hopefully you'll get online soon!

Still not stable for me @ home.
Dragged the PC to the office and it's fine.
So since everything else at home is fine and it's the same DNS servers. (8.8.8.8 and 1.1.1.1) it's something with my Verizon connection at home. Sad
I'll worry about it if the price goes up and I want to move some.

-Dave


Having the same problem again. Came back the beginning of May, now no connection.
This time I did a bit more research. Seems to be a Verizon FiOS issue. Works from office, works from cable, works being run off my T-Mobile Wi-Fi hotspot.
On my FiOS at my home and on the FiOS at my parents house no connection when running the Lisk Hub. Same laptop so I know that's not the issue.
All other wallets sync fine.

Anyone else in the downstate NY area on FiOS having an issue at this time (22-June-2019) connecting?

Thanks,
Dave

My bad, didn't see it. In truth, was not looking for it there either, figured it would be here since it's an original firmware not an "aftermarket" one

So, bitmain released new firmware the other day.
More overclocking & underclocking options.



So far (3 hours) running with the "hash rate unchanged- lower voltage option"
I have seen a SMALL rate drop from 10.3T or 10.4T down to 10.1T or 10.2T
i have seen the input power drop from close to 1500 to 1230

Will have more data over the next few days.

SSH is still disabled.

Could be good, depends on how they do it.
The more we can use BTC the better it is. Issue is going to be do they do it smoothly or is it going to be a horrible kludge to make it work.

6586  Bitcoin / Development & Technical Discussion / Re: RPC performance problems on: June 21, 2019, 03:44:24 AM
Although many people will disagree with me on this. The speed / performance issue can be fixed by throwing hardware at the problem.
You just need a lot of it at the moment. Can you move the blocks to faster disks or a raid with better performance? Can you put in enough ram to carve out a 256gb ramdrive so you can move the blockchain there?

Yeah, we're talking $1000s, you just have to figure out if it's better to spend time optimizing or just spend some money and kick the problem down the road till you outgrow it again.

The bug was initially reported by the Coinbase Security Team, but they haven't yet said whether they were actually attacked via this method or not.

They were but attacked, but according to the article the attack was not successful.

They released 67.0.4 today. So even if you updated yesterday, you get to do it again today.

6590  Economy / Collectibles / Cheap Collectibles (if you have time) on: June 20, 2019, 07:13:29 PM
So with some comments made in Viziques thread about some cheap collectibles.
There are a lot out there. IF:

1) You have the time to look
2) You don't care about occasionally taking a risk if you can't verify 100% what it is.

To anyone here a Ravenbit Series 2.2 Silver Node is worth a ton. Only 25 made. Really rare, could probably sell mine for well over $1000
To the guy at Coin Galleries Of OysterBay http://coingalleriesofoysterbay.com/ it's a nice 1oz silver coin thing $44.95
You just have to hit a lot of stores and sort through a lot of junk to find something like that.

Same thing with some art work. We know the Cryptograffiti print I got for $50 was a steal. To the guy I bought it from while on vacation in Vegas, it was neat but very slightly damaged print of which he had an undamaged one of. So $50 + getting totally screwed on the cost of him framing it and we're both happy. Don't know where he got it & I didn't really care.

Remember doing this long term violates the "McDonald's Theory"
For those of you who don't follow other collectibles.
If for less time then you put into looking for something, you could have gotten a part time job at McDonald's, making minimum wage, and earned enough money to buy it straight from a known source you have violated the "McDonald's Theory" of collecting.

You will always get lucky now and then, just don't think it's going to make you rich.

Ships from UK
Sensible offers invited

Viz


The issue is YOUR sensible offer is going to be different from MY sensible offer.
Unless you give some idea of what you are looking for it's kind of difficult.
Especially with the Cryptograffiti stuff being all over the place in price. I just picked up one of his pieces for under $50 and others have gone for over $1000 so....

6592  Bitcoin / Wallet software / Another FireFox vulnerability that can hit WebWallets (update 20-June) on: June 19, 2019, 01:19:15 PM
Yet again why are you using web wallets?
But, if you are using web wallets or an exchange that relies on JavaScript update your FireFox to 67.0.3 67.0.4

A bit more info here but you have to do another update.

It's one of the better ones out there. Even has a micro SD slot so you can sign a transaction and bring it to your PC to broadcast.

The expected reliability of the part that stores the private key as described on the ATSAMD21E17 datasheet is between 25-100 years [page 1014]
Source: https://opendime.com/faq

If it breaks before that date, your coins are most likely gone.

Although I do have some BTC on OpenDimes it does kind of scare the crap out of me for just that reason.

Plug it into a bad USB port and something fries. Poof it's gone.
Some weird EM field from some other device corrupts something. Poof it's gone.

Etc.

But.... on the same note that loaded physical coin you have in your display cabinet because it looks nice. Small fire due to an electrical short in the lights on top of the cabinet.
Poof it's gone.

You have to do a risk analysis on how much you are willing to loose vs. how you want it stored vs. a few other things and come up with your own comfort level.

6598  Other / Serious discussion / Re: ccn.com closing??? on: June 15, 2019, 09:02:35 PM

Side personal note, if your web business is so reliant on 1 source of clicks and hits and revenue that loosing it will cause you to close then you should not be in business.
That's juts my view having been doing web work since Windows NT 3.51 on an ISDN line. Many people will disagree because Google is the 800lb gorilla in the room. But that's just because they are too lazy to work at getting Amazon, Yahoo/Bing, etc. to all work together.*


Correct. As a website admin, ignore Google rankings. You cannot rely on them forever. Focus on other web traffic sources like Facebook or Twitter.

Or as the Marines say "Improvise, Adapt, Overcome."

-Dave
6599  Other / Serious discussion / Re: ccn.com closing??? on: June 15, 2019, 08:59:25 PM
It's really a complete collapse, why do you think it happened?

I would guess a number of reasons.
I think blaming the sudden drop of Google traffic is a bit of a stretch.

If you are running that close to the edge in terms of funding then there are other reasons for the shutdown that have been going on much longer. If this was the end of August and they came out saying that it's been 90 days since Google changed their searches and they can't recover and they are shutting down the end of September that's fine. You had 90+ days to try. Google changes something and you run away crying. Learn to run a business. I can take in no money for the rest of 2019 and still meet most of my bills and payroll. If you have been in business for more then a year you should have 1 month of cost of running the business in savings for every year you have been around. So after 3 years you should have enough money to not sell a thing / take in a penny and still exist for 90 days. Not saying it's going to be a fun time but you still should be around.

With the above being said, I really have not followed CCN in a while. So I can comment on the business / internet side not so much on the are they a good source of news side.
From what I saw since they made the announcement and I have been looking they have a lot of fluff pieces and stuff grabbed from elsewhere.

6600  Other / Meta / Re: Do we need 1 more datapoint for trust in trades (and only trades)? on: June 15, 2019, 01:56:01 PM
Can you share who you had in mind?

Something VERY basic.
If you are in any of the subforums that allow trading / buying / selling / loaning (or viewing a profile) there is another line below your other info that has trade trust.
It's a # starts a 0 and goes up or down from there. Next to it is a number with the total number of people who have left trade trust.

To give a + or - to someone you MUST have done an exchange with them for something. BTC / fiat / hardware / service / whatever.
If it goes well they get a +1 if it goes poorly they get a -1 or you can leave a 0

If you are outside the trading areas this number is not seen unless you are looking at the profile.
This is important--> If you leave a trade trust that user and did not deal with this person then you get a x day ban. If you do it again you get a perma ban. This means that even if I hate you and you torment me we can't trade trust each other into oblivion.

Now, people are going to say "wait, this means scammers can now just farm accounts and build up trade trust"

Nope, now that we have flags anyone can flag and show why not to trust the user. But that all it is, a flag, you can't say Bob will rip you off if never had a dealing with Bob.
All the flags are saying is be careful it looks like Bob *might* rip you off. As of now with the trust settings it looks more like a WILL.

It also eliminates the DT1 & DT2 drama.

Take a look at my trust.
As of now at the default settings going 2 deep I'm at +14, if you look at the untrusted feedback I would probably be in the 40s (to lazy to actually count)
But there are some things in there have have NOTHING to do with trades between myself and that person but if you look quickly it will add to my "trust in your mind" count but has nothing to do with a deal. So it should not be counted. Trade trust takes care of that.
