Is there an API command that will get me the 5s hashrate or something similar?

I have a stack of 16 bitburner boards and occasionally one or more of them will crash and need to be rebooted. I'm looking for a way to figure out this has happened so that I can automatically power cycle and reboot the boards, but I can't find any API command that will tell me the current hashrate or even the current state of the devices. Anyone have any suggestions?

Did you look in the api-readme.txt?

Yes, of course. There is nothing in there that seems like it answers my question, unless I am missing something somewhere. I've looked at both the output from the "summary" and the "stats" commands.

aw ok, nm, I see some useful information from the "devs" command now.

Once had about 1,100. Much less right now. Lost a bunch from ukyo.loan and weexchange and labcoin.  Sold 250 at $400 Sad. Wish I had waited another 2 weeks to sell, I would have an extra $150k from that sale. Also, now I'm facing a $40k tax bill, lol.

lol @ paying taxes on Bitcoin gains.

Sell them for cash so there's no record of the transaction and you don't have to report it.

First, assuming you are ok with tax evasion...

1) it is hard to sell over $100k in bitcoins in person.

2) Let's say you worked your ass off on local bitcoins and did. Now you have $100k in cash. You can't just deposit that in your bank account. Anything over $5k and they will fill out a form and report you (but they can't tell you they did!). And if you make multiple deposits of <$5k you can get charged with "structuring" which is itself illegal. Essentially, you have to launder your bitcoin gains. Not very easy.

3) When you use that $100k to buy something (say a downpayment on a house), the IRS is going to want to know where all that money came from.

Running cgminer in verbose and looking at the log, I noticed it is filled with lines like this:

 [2014-02-14 01:27:12] HFA0: invalid nonce - HW error
 [2014-02-14 01:27:12] HFA 0: No matching work!
 [2014-02-14 01:27:12] HFA0: invalid nonce - HW error
 [2014-02-14 01:27:12] HFA 0: No matching work!

So much so that the log is growing by about 500k a minute.

What could be wrong?
Again; anyone experiencing large amounts of errors will likely be fixed by the pending firmware release.  It's normal to have say 2% or less errors, but if you see huge strings of them, this is a firmware issue.  It will be fixed.  Please be patient.  Making support tickets with these complaints will get the same response I'm here giving you now, as I'm telling them to.

I know it's hard to have patience at this point after all this, but please try.  I've only been @ Hashfast since December, and I was one of many Engineers hired to fix things and get reliable products out to everyone waiting.  I wasn't around when any business decisions were made that affected shipping dates, so I can't comment.

Keep in mind, if you do get an RMA, it's shipping with the same buggy firmware you probably have now, so you could end up with the same problems, and you'll be out the time, effort, and downtime while we ship you another.  Also, it pushes further out any upgrade kits or MPP boards, as we must divert boards for this purpose, and then it's going to take many Engineer-hours going back over every board sent back to see why it was sent back.  (Hours that could be better spent)

-Phil

ok, thanks. Is there an estimate for when the firmware update will be released? Are we talking days or weeks?

I'm not sure if the hardware errors are the symptom or the cause of the problem. The real issue is the babyjet only hashes at 225 GH/s. My other babyjet has minimal hardware errors and hashes at 430 GH/s. Are you saying the new firmware will clear up the hardware errors and my hashrate should nearly double?

Can you do this with a traditional IRA too (not a roth). I think I am above the limits to be able to contribute to a roth IRA. They set them rather low for single people :-/.

HOW TO GENERATE A TECH SUPPORT LOG:

You can create a detailed log by putting the following line in your "Extra cgminer parameters" which is located under the "Settings" tab in your RPI web interface:
Code:
--verbose --monitor 'cat > /opt/minepeon/http/log.txt'
Be sure to get the single quotes (apostrophes) and spaces correct.  Incorrect data entered in this box can break your system!  Note that this will now be logging a large volume of text to your SD card, which is a bad idea, as it will rapidly wear out if it has to log all that data.  So be sure to restore the original settings (default is blank) after your logging session.

If your log is getting overwritten too much because the session keeps dying, simply add an additional ">" to the existing one, with no extra spaces.  This will cause it to append the logs instead of overwriting them.

Once you have seen the problem occur, you can access the log file at: http://ip.address.of.your.minepeon/log.txt (so for example: "http://192.168.1.101/log.txt")

If you are not sure of your IP address, you should be able to find it by visiting http://setup.hashfast.com/.

If you can then ZIP or TGZ up the log file and either email it or upload it somewhere where you can share it, such as https://mega.co.nz/, We will then be able to take a look and see what's going on.

Again, DON'T LEAVE THE LOGGING RUNNING TOO LONG!  It will burn up your SD card!

How did you get in touch with them???  I've been waiting a week and a half for them to contact me regarding my broken babyjet (it was broken on arrival) and i have heard NOTHING yet. Did you call or email or something else? Did you harass them or where you just lucky.
As I've said, we hired a new term for support, and are working through the Zendesk tickets.  I'm helping as much as I can (when I have spare time).  This is why I'm not posting in here as often.

The best thing you can do is send an email.  Be sure to include as much information as possible.  A 5-10 minute log file attached generated with "--verbose" is very helpful and needed with most cases. (Tip: Zip or TGZ before attaching.)   People with clear requests having adequate information and not being rude and irate or more likely to get prompt assistance.

-Phil


I've sent multiple e-mails (since my first one was closed without any comment). My first e-mail was 11 days ago. I've always tried to be very polite and I've sent a cut and paste of my cgminer output, plus a link to my realtime eligius stats. The only thing I've heard was an automated reply. I only questioned storm2k5 because he said he only waited 72 hours and was wondering what he did differently or if he was just lucky.

In the meantime, I'll work on collecting the verbose log but I'm not sure it will show much useful info as my cgminer claims everything is working correctly (save for ridiculously high hw error rate). It's only when looking at the pool that I see that I'm only getting roughly half the reported hashrate.

114  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: HashFast BabyJet users thread on: February 13, 2014, 05:29:05 PM
I just got notification from Hashfast (72h wait) telling me they will send me a new board and they will update me with the tracking number. It looks like they don't even want me to send back my botched board (which I think is great)

So soon I will have 2 boards, hopefully one of them will mine at full speed. But I want to use that broken 250ghps board of mine, even tho it probably got a very bad efficiency power wise.

So the question is, what do I need to run both boards in the babyjet? I already know I need that cooling system, but it seems I also need a connector cable to loop the USB to the 2nd board. I can probably solder my own cable, but would need pin assignment. Or is it just straight through? Which connectors on the board do I have to use to loop to the 2nd board?

How did you get in touch with them???  I've been waiting a week and a half for them to contact me regarding my broken babyjet (it was broken on arrival) and i have heard NOTHING yet. Did you call or email or something else? Did you harass them or where you just lucky.

We don't need this. The ability to do escrow is built into the protocol (although no clients seem to support this as of yet).
116  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: What if... on: February 11, 2014, 09:07:06 PM
I don't think you'll be able to open one without being a Japanese resident.

Yup, you can't unless you live there. A tourist visa is not enough. You need a gaijin card or whatever is equivalent now that those are going away. Even that might not be enough as Japanese treat foreigners as outsiders. Most banks require you have an inkan (seal) although I've heard that these days some of them are ok with just a signature.
117  Bitcoin / Legal / Re: What if... on: February 11, 2014, 08:56:05 PM
...you could open a bank account in Japan in order to freely deposit or withdraw money into and out of Gox? Is this feasible?

Do you live in Japan?
118  Economy / Speculation / Re: Despite all the hacking attacks, FUD, negative articles etc. Bitcoin is on: February 11, 2014, 08:50:44 PM
I actually think it highly likely that an altcoin funded and backed by a major tech or financial corporation is in development. (A googlecoin or applecoin  fif you will.)  Spreading FUD on bitcoin might be a good play for such.

Not that I think THOSE guys are necessarily working on one, but I think an organization which would have assets to guarantee a value of their coin would make for a popular coin for newbs and the like.  Oh and hey, it and only it are accepted at their online store too. . .

Absolutely no doubt about it.  They'll be smart about it, greasing the appropriate political skids and riding on the coattails of Bitcoin's success right into the forefront.  No, it won't be anonymous.  No, it won't be decentralized.  But guess what?  99% of people don't care, they just want something easier than credit cards, checks, wire transfers, etc.

No, people WILL care. People ALWAYS care about money. What if google goes out of business and all your googlecoins then just disappear? What if google is involved in an Enron style scandal? People trust private corporations even less than they do the government! I'd rather keep my money in US dollars than applecoin, googlecoin or microsoftcoin.
119  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Transaction id's being changed on: February 11, 2014, 07:30:23 PM
I doubt its gox doing this. It's any number of malicious hackers out there that want to mess with bitcoin.

This thread... you guys are so masochistically obsessive.

Do really need to fill the internet with hot air, recycled over and over?

Say something new, do something new, or stop talking please.

Some of us are owed hundreds of thousands of dollars. Do you expect us to just sit there and wait for our coins to simply reappear magically?

No, but that's also not what I suggested.

I think we are out of new ideas. And since there has been 0 information from Ukyo in at least a month, there is nothing new to talk about. People are frustrated and angry, and I think it is good that they are. We deserve more information than we have been getting.
