Who wants a hodl wallet.dat file (along with fee_estimates.dat and peers.dat, if needed) with some coins in it?

So that's a question I have. I'm looking to move my RX570 off Win10 and into Linux. Is there a preferred flavour of linux? Can I go with Mint over Ubuntu?
Is there a walkthrough of preferred Linux settings (i haven't really found one. mostly Windows ones)
try hiveos or raveos I got 26.10 Mh with zombie-tune auto (11,0) on 1.22. only worked in a x16 slot |

I am testing lolMiner 1.22 (linux) with 40 GPU's (all 480/580/570 4G)
Resuts:
1) All speeds are always better than TRM
2) There are no rule to get better hashrates some cards go to 15MHz, some to 13MHZ, one goes to 25Mhz and other identical card on identical Mobo goes to 13MHz...
I think it will be nice to have a special instructions detailed for us to get the better hash on 4G GPU's.
PS: Enable 3Gen PCI not always meaning more hash on my tests
One of the important things is the PCIx8 or PCIx16... so that is also a bottleneck, lot of cards will give also a bottleneck if all the PCILanes are used... These is the reason why sometimes only 1 card is giving the max perfomance too... The autotune made by the developer is great, but normally is hardware bottleneck. so, it has nothing to do with the driver version or a specific linux kernel version? but the readme file says The higher this parameter is choosen the more memory for a partial dag lolMiner is allowed to use. Thus the speed on your 4G cards will increase significantly. Given a recent driver (e.g. amdgpu-pro 20.30 or 20.40) and the right Linux kernel (best is 5.4 at the moment), you can almost always set a value of 4078, on many rigs even 4080. Older drivers or other Linux kernels may require significantly lower values and will perform slower.

why don't you fix your masternodes calculator? it shows that the more masternodes you have the less tokens you get as a reward. which is the correct info? not that I'm interested in your masternodes, but looks like nonsense

what's going on? when the miner starts it takes up only around 350 Kb of RAM and some hours later 850 Kb? and in a couple of days already more than 3,5 Gb? memory leak? Polaris card, Windows 7
I can't remember older versions behaving like that. Mining could go on for days and even weeks on end without interruption. It certainly isn't the way mining software should behave now, leaking memory. Maybe it has to do with the much older drivers? |

First of all, I don't have a very good opinion about Bitcoin Cash (BCH) and its promoters (especially Roger Ver, Jihan Wu.etc). But at the same time, I have to agree that this particular coin has fared relatively well, compared to some of the other altcoins such as Litecoin and Ethereum. I guess having powerful supporters like Ver helps to maintain a good exchange rate.
Maybe it's not only thanks to these influencers, but to the improvement of the code/coin (capabilities) itself? |

My expectations are as follow
1. New money should flow into crypto space
2. Bitcoin halving should have better impact on altcoins too
3. Strict regulations to tackle crypto scammers
4. Glorious old days of bounties should return
If all this happens next it will be a very good year in crypto space
Your first point makes lot of sense and i think that is what we need right now for bitcoin to reach a new all time high, new money must flow in or else bitcoin will keep playing around at present value of 7 to 10k at highest So many money are wasting by get scammed. The new money is about the way to achieve the next ATH but remember the problem is what will be happening in 2020 to make it happen? halving will not bring another ATH for bitcoin and we can learn from litecoin halving. Yes, previously everybody was positive about the Litecoin when there is halving, we don't see any improvement in the price of Litecoin and the same thing will happen to the Bitcoin where many people are predicting the price of Bitcoin will increase after halving but for everything we have to wait and see. Money should flow... lol And by money filthy fiat is meant. If halving won't help many will become disappointed and lose faith and dump crypto and the price will drop even lower, also a possible scenario. |

Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency but has real value. You can exchange Bitcoin with cash to spend as needed. Bitcoin can be exchanged directly with Internet-connected devices without going through an intermediary financial institution. Currently Bitcoin has attracted a lot of investors. Bitcoin makes your dream of getting rich quick come true. What are you waiting for, come to the cryptocurrency market.
When has the "your dream of getting rich quick come true" become the euphemism for a rip-off? The most important key words are "getting rich quick". "He who hath ears to hear, let him hear" And can't one exchange BCH with cash? Can't BCH be exchanged directly? |

I learned what cryptocurrencies really is. I realized that Bitcoin is the coin what we should care about, we can build same features what altcoins offer on Bitcoin second layer. So why we need thousands of altcoins?
Cuz bitcoin isn't scalable, it's stuck in the mud and the reason why BCH was forked (not saying it's near perfection) |

After all, you understand that cryptocurrency hype is exclusively speculative in nature, therefore it is obvious that sooner or later the popularity of investing in various cryptocurrencies would fall due to their unprofitability.
The real hype will begin when the technology itself will be used in most areas of life. The big question is what will happen to the speculative side of the market in the future, because in part this is an obstacle to the mass adaptation of cryptocurrencies.
True about speculative nature. Can't imagine, though, how the technology can be used in most areas of life, apart from the obvious finance and registry/bookkeeping sector? |

The best option would be to find an alternative video platform that is decentralized, so its not controlled by 1 entity and your videos that are uploaded are not at risk of being taken down. YouTube is a centralized platform meaning it has full control over what is stored on it servers. Similar events are happening in the crypto space where by centralized exchanges are becoming defunct because investors are sick an tired of losing their valuable investments in a hacking event. Decentralized exchanges are the way of the future, binance dex is where you have full control over your crypto as you hold the keys. Here is an example of a crypto that trades on binance dex. https://www.binance.org/en/trade/CAN-677_BNBThere's at least a dozen of alternatives already, yet we don't see the people swarming in. There's no mass exodus from Youtube (with the exclusion of those banned from Yt), only a tiny trickle. As to DEXes, how about cryptobridge? |

What I don't understand is the big risks and doubling down by Canaan and Bitmain on 5nm chips for the next set of ASIC miners, supposedly out in Q1 of 2020!
snip
Brad
Isn't every ASIC that is released overpriced however? Even going back to the Antminer S5 which was released during a bear market. People said it was over-priced and then they slashed prices to compete with the SP 20 miner. Same with the miners before that the Antminer S3 and S4, they were released during a sideways market, were overpriced and most likely any home miner which bought those never ROI'd if you took into account USD fiat rewards. I am guessing that there are farms that get these miners at a discount and they got tons of capital to run them almost at break-even and they probably only sell during a bull rally. Why they don't just buy the BTC directly I don't understand however. That set me a-thinking. Who profits the most (if at all) from mining? Not the miners. But the equipment sellers. They know how to ride the cryptowave |

I had began to turn from enthusiasic to skeptical long before the 2017 bubble. 2019 only strengthened that attitude towards highly skeptical. There are some crypto-related (very niche) projects that I observe with interest and even hope, no hype, no drama, mostly under mass frenzy's radar, yet they're working on something decent and real deal and it's not (what a blessing!) something to make a quick buck overnite off of

Some people are bitcoin maximalists, they call altcoins shitcoins derogatorily. BTW, should we consider BCH or BSV altcoins? The most hated ones in their circlejerk

Of course, nothing is wrong with altcoins, “Wherever there is an opportunity to make easy profits, people will rush into anything” (Buterin)

Although we can testify to the obvious fact that it's over, yet if we extrapolate the previous ups and downs and do some simple math (all time high at $1100, then plumment to $230, then another all time high at $19000, then going down towards $3400) we could detect a pattern (1100/230 and 19000/3400 and 19000/1100 and 3400/230) then the next all time high would be (if at all) around (roughly) $300000 and low at $18000. But, I know, it's silly and we should always keep in mind the Wall st. cheat sheet (psychology of a market cycle)
