If any intelligent hacker is going to be using a residential proxy, assumedly from the victim's approximate location, what is the use of flagging VPN users who are using datacenter IP addresses?

So, your acquaintance officially gave you his L3+ ASICs?

But wait, are you using that ATX PSU on one of the L3+ ?
I can't see the connectors with those "spaghetti wirings" and the label isn't shown but if you've connected it to one,
make sure that it has enough juice to power that 800W req. or accidents might happen.

Nope - they’re still his, just hosting them for him and keeping a share of the profits. We decided instead of mining to a single pool and having to figure out payout splits, we would set up automated flight sheet changes (in Hive’s ASIC software/manager) and split by mining time. I have the two miners pointing to Binance’s pool on my time.

They’re very calmly generating a quiet hum under my bed now 24/7.

I’m using an ATX PSU for one of them, yes. So far no issues - that unit has a dead board and is drawing less power anyway.

The room they’re running in is cooled 24/7, thermometer near the rigs says 27 deg C. Dehumidifier also running.

A question, actually - Hive reports the boards as running at about 60 deg C. Is this an acceptable temperature?

Just got these set up - two L3+'s mining LTC+DOGE! They’re a friend’s, but it’s my first time seeing (and hosting) cryptocurrency miners in person.

3 years later it's only gotten worse. And Litecoin..... Oi.


I have free electricity where I'm staying now (utilities included; no oversight) so I just started running an acquaintance's pair of L3+'s. Make about $3/day on Nicehash at no additional cost, and the L3+'s (and their PSUs) are quiet enough they don't add more than a background hum.

Maybe something like Stellar, whose fees are ridiculously small?

Then too there are chains out there supposedly with no fees at all...

-MarkM-

I was looking at Solana. I was aware of Stellar when they launched but I've seen nothing about them lately; I see they have a higher market cap than Solana though. I'll look into it.

In your opinion, which would be the best altcoin/chain to build this on?
