21  Bitcoin / Mining support / Re: Shared mining? on: November 28, 2013, 03:03:46 AM
Hmm, I have never heard of "shared mining". Could someone point me in the right direction for info on this.

Thanks!

I think it's called ℗ merged mining.  You get a name coin wallet and your pool should have a place for the address and it just gets deposited into your account, I think it's just a few bucks extra.

It used the same hashes.

Merge mining generally happens at the pool level, so you don't need to worry about doing anything for it if you're with BTC Guild or Bitminter.

Merge mining namecoins adds about 1-2% to the revenue at no extra cost. So it's worth it.

Thank you sir! That is what I was looking for!

If I mine BTC at the same time as NMC, will I lose my hash rate on the BTC side?
24  Bitcoin / Mining support / Re: Mining BTC and NMC at the same time? on: November 25, 2013, 09:09:14 PM
So it can be done at the same time,  how?

What program are you using to mine and what does your .conf file look like?
26  Bitcoin / Mining support / Mining BTC and NMC at the same time? on: November 23, 2013, 07:33:07 PM
So I have been mining with my ASIC for a little while now, I was wondering if dual mining (or whatever it's called) with Namecoin will half the hash rate between the two or if it just does both at the same time (equally at the maximum potential hash rate for each coin)?  If it splits the hash rate, why mine namecoin when you can make a lot more money mining BTC?

Thanks a lot!  I think a 32GB flash drive should cut it!
28  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Bitcoin Qt on a flashdrive? on: November 20, 2013, 01:13:53 AM
How can I install Bitcoin Qt and the whole block chain on my flash drive and how can I make it compatible with Mac and Windows (I was thinking 2 different Bitcoin wallets that accesses the same block chain or something of the sort).  I'm not computer savvy enough to figure this out on my own.

I have already tried installing it on a flash drive but only managed to get it to work when the flash drive is plugged in; but the whole block chain (and more importantly, the wallet.dat file) is still in my ~/Library folder (and %appdata% Bitcoin folder).   Should I move the %appdata% and Bitcoin folders too my flash drive?

I know I can just copy my wallet.dat file over to the flash drive, but that's not enough.  I don't want to open up the folder containing the wallet.dat file to copy/delete whenever I want access to my coins.  I want to be able to plug in a flash drive, open up my wallet, get my coins, and close it.  Sort of how people have created a BAMT Linux bootable flash drive.

The release notes said MacMiner restarts bfgminer if bfgminer quits unexpectedly, but the feature to start automatically when MacMiner is opened hasn't been built in yet

TR4L I'm guessing the device may have changed name, have you set -S all or the specific device? If the latter try

cd /dev/
ls -l cu.*

unsure about the fury devices yet, support is built in to bfgminer but not sure about usb drivers, please do let me know what you find when it turns up!

I have tried reinstalling and all of the above and it still says this:

It's inherently classist. Only those with access to moderately high levels of technology can spend or receive it. Only those with access to exceedingly high levels of technology can "mine" it. Heterosexual, middle class or higher white males are disproportionally represented in the demographics of bitcoin users. Bitcoin only serves to uphold the current kyriarchal socioeconomic structures by making sure the privileged become more privileged.

And it's a terrible idea. You spend more on your parents' electricity bill and replacing burnt out GPUs that your parents buy for christmas and birthdays than you actually theoretically make.

Bitcoins are basically just this weird attempt by lolbertarian children to make their own currency and play stock market and dodge taxes.

Yes, because China, who is currently moving most of the money, are all middle class or higher white males and fit your general stereotype perfectly  Roll Eyes
This comment doesn't even deserve a proper response.

White people are 8% of the world population. White males are about half of that. So either prove less than 4% of bitcoin users are white males or admit you're full of BS.

You're racist!  You're boycotting it because white people use it?  RACIST!  Go away.

My wife turned on her hairdryer this morning and it popped the circuit breaker that my my BFL Asic was on.  Now, macminer won't work!  I installed windows on a separate partition and I know it's not the miner because it works fine on bfgminer on the windows side.  I tried to update and now it comes up with an error and then the indeed window every few seconds..

When I go to my account I get "502 Bad Gateway."  My miner is still going, will the shares still count or am I putting BTC in someone else's pocket?

If you see shares in your miner then they still count. Though I wish I was able to connect like you do. Been getting submission failure for the past one week. Can go for 12 hours now and then without problem at times. Maybe something with KNC's new 0.98 firmware but it's strange that it fails after hours on.



Could it be the mining software you're using?  I'm on a mac and with the OS update, CGminer stopped working and had to use BFGMiner (through macminer).  CGminer wasn't able to see the Miner drivers anymore, don't know what happened there but I don't care cuz macminer works.  Try different software.

34  Economy / Speculation / Bitcoin Price?! on: October 29, 2013, 04:04:03 AM
I've been scanning the forums for a reason why the BTC price jumped and the only thing I came across was that China traded a bunch of them but I'm still not sure why it's above $200.  Anyone with more knowledge care to expound?
35  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: BFL BitForce SC Firmware source code on: October 20, 2013, 05:09:49 PM
I just received my Jalapeno. Its hashing at 5.1 mhash and stays around 43 degrees with 25 degrees environment.

Is there any way to know which firmware mine has without purchasing a JTAG adapter?
in cgminer:
java API stats | egrep '\[Firm| BA' oops that's the next version Tongue
java API stats | egrep '\[GetIn| BA'

[GetInfo] is the full dump of the GetInfo reply from the BFL ASIC

Being a Jalapeno it will most likely be 1.0.0

Please pardon my lack of knowledge, but where would we put these commands?  I didn't realize CGMiner was capable of taking inputs like this?

Yay windows. At this rate I'll inadvertently completely deprecate windows support  Roll Eyes

Gonna have to think on this. The rewrite started out trying to fix windows but instead linux keeps getting better and windows and osx worse.



Are you also dropping scrypt mining?

Just an FYI to ckolivas and kano.  I was trying to mine with 3.6.1 but it wouldn't allow me to run scrypt. I thought I was doing something wrong until I tried 2.11.4 and 3.1.1 and it worked.  Didn't change anything (copied and pasted my .conf files).  I'm running Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, I tried both:  "kernel" : "scrypt", and "scrypt" : true,  and neither worked.

I'm running:
Linux 3.2.0-23-generic #36-Ubuntu SMP Tue Apr 10 20:39:51 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Every time I open CGminer, I get a segmentation fault error and it doesn't matter what version I use.  I can't seem to get it to work.  Can anyone help me?

I got my BFL 60Gh/s miner and I'll be stoked to break even (and I ordered mine in early Feb).  Anyone that hasn't received their miner from BFL should just get a refund now of (if you're desperate to stay in the game) upgrade to the Monarch and risk the exact same thing happening.  I hate to say it, but BFL is a scam.  My miner came back with scratches all over and a fan that was broken.   I'm pretty sure those dirtbags mined with it before shipping it (why else would it look used).

Any reason that you're trying to build your own binary vs just downloading the precompiled linux build from the author?

I have a pretty thorough linux guide here (part 2), if it helps:

http://www.cryptobadger.com/build-your-own-litecoin-mining-rig/

Although I don't compile cgminer from source in my guide; I just use ckolivas's build.

I've used this but I get Segmentation fault when I try to run cgminer.  This has been a problem with absolutely every guide I've used.
