I am leaning towards this hack being an inside job.
Why?? well, leading up to the hack, scrypt hashrate was and still is exploding, rather than upgrade equipment and capacity they simply "upgraded" the minimum share difficulty. As they approached max capacity again with BTC price exploding and NH wallet full, the simplest solution for them, rather than deal with the hassles of hardware upgrades, troubleshooting, downtimes, complaints etc was to just pull the plug by feigning a hack and then walk away.
Just a theory , I personally hope they start back up. Maybe they'll use the downtime to upgrade and reopen, hurray, if not ... see prior paragraph. It'll be interesting to see how it plays out

What are people mining for Scrypt currently? Hash rates are unstable and difficulty is 40-50x recommended levels vs normal scrypt mining a few weeks ago.
Anyone know? Whatever it is, the coin or the pools for it suck.
dunno, but there are a lot of junk pools and pools with bad settings lately, I've been requesting they be canceled

One question... which is the best light wallet for BCH in your opinion?... In which one do you trust? (And please, don't say me NONE) I went with Trezor because didn't neet to enter seed in 3rd party unknown questionable wallet to claim BCH, however you'll need a Trezor -- once it's converted it's just like any other coin in the wallet so I guess it's ok. I am a new Trezor user, before that I was using KeepKey(still using it too)

I just claimed my Bcash using trezor beta wallet. It was a smooth and painless process, nice job guys

I agree. BCC will be a very huge scam. I wonders how many BTC private keys the hackers will stole.
What is scam from your point of view and how they will stole private keys of others. It's open source project and just fork of a bitcoin and nothing more than if anyone don't have sense how to make secure his private keys than you can't blame to this private. the seed for BCC is the same seed for BTC, reveal that seed to claim your BCC and you may lose your BTC too here's some good info on how to protect yourself and why Electron Cash could be a scam(from the developer of electrum): https://twitter.com/ElectrumWallet?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor

Has anyone actually reviewed the code changes to that wallet? the author of electrum reviewed the code changes and he seems pretty skeptical, IMO it is likely a scam to steal seed for BTC wallets not to mention magisteryolo has only 1 post https://twitter.com/ElectrumWallet?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthorimo a lot of people going to lose their BTC trying to cash in their bitcoin cash --- we'll be reading the sad stories soon enough, gonna be a bunch

Well, good news .... After about a thousand or so i2cget commands and referring to Ericsson docs and to the other working cubes and issuing a hundred or so i2cset commands ... I was able to get all the non working DCDC's up and running again. The dies are hashing away fine once again =) KNC definitely has some custom configuration of each DCDC going on =-P
I wonder if any registers can be tweaked in the DCDC's for further power effeciency .. I mean these things have hundreds of configurable settings lol! its nuts.
nice job, but I think maybe we need to get you working on some newer tech

Well Ive managed to brick one cube and another die on another cube just to be sure .... by running one simple command =(
Dont ever run "i2cdump -y CHANNEL 0x10-0x17"
Ive managed to put my DCDC's in braindead mode or worse ... fry the ASIC... Im still trying to figure out if the damage done is reversable =*(
If anyone else has ran into this and know the fix.... please share =)
Maybe my next firmware will have this "feature" lol jk =P
try "i2cdump -y CHANNEL 0x10-0x17 -undo" seriously though, unplug it, leave it sit for a day or 2 then try again -- silly Titans, this actually works quite often

Like I said someone going to overclock them 10-20%, I'd just go with one per each psu
main reason I didn't go with it is I run the rear fan at 100% off the psu and can't do that with these bitmain psu's that I am aware of
If you haven't noticed the L3+ fan controller is buggy. I happened to catch them overheating while both fan rpms showing zero, sure they reset but they reset into the same buggy state -- over & over until the board burns up -- saw it happen a couple times, once on auto fan control another time on 75% -- so you can have your cheap bitmain psu's feeding their buggy bitmain fan controller.
oh by time the board actually shuts down & resets the temp is actually over 120c, so the 80c cutoff doesn't do much, it's not an instantaneous shut down and it's not a failsafe
a few of those cycles and your board will be shot

Is it a good idea to power 2 L3+ (800W each) with a 1600W PSU?
exactly my thoughts, seems kind of sketchy running a cheap foreign made PSU at 100% or more -- I wouldn't do it How long before some dummy overclocks them and starts drawing more than 1600w. Sounds like a recipe for disaster

I don't like the new site either, change for the sake of change is just annoying -- gotta waste time learning it all over
On the positive side, I don't spend much time on NH and don't plan to start, so it's not much of an issue

The revised website is quite nice; from the perspective of a seller at least I like it even better then the old version. Having more detailed data available at a glance on the Miner page is very nice. website colors are uglee, orange? omg, hard on the eyes -- maybe that's their way of keeping page hits down, first remove the auto refresh button, now this

trollbox scrolled so fast you couldn't even read it most of the time -- maybe they are working to upgrade it & make it more functional, something similar to how BTCe did by limiting access in some fashion during peak periods, or maybe they tried that already -- I didn't use it much just popped in every now and then & got the impression it was way overloaded, ie unmanageable

if you try solo mining you'll find that you hardly ever get "average" results. It'll be either really good results(like you're getting now) or really bad.
It's like the weather, temps are usually either above or below normal.
An average is by definition just an average of the extremes, you hardly ever see it in real life
That's why you have miners chasing "lucky" pools when they are finding blocks, then looking for another when the "luck" turns bad
Yes, I've also noticed Roulette players playing a number over and over if they hasn't come up in a long time. Not realizing every spin is independent of one another. I sorta do that too, each month in realtime I track all my LTC block solving shares even if I'm not mining LTC. Then if I get a long dry spell sometimes I'll jump in and start solo mining. Time before last I found a real block in 18 minutes. The last time I tried it I gave up after about an hour, then found a theoretical block an hour later. I know it's all luck but you have to feel lucky to even try it imo, or it's just a pain in the neck. Not sure how theoretical blocks correlate to actually finding an LTC block. If I had been mining LTC would I have submitted that same block solving share?? .. probably(maybe) not .. It's just a reference point to start solo if I feel lucky (or bored).

Found 2 blocks today. That makes 3 in 9 days. Earned 27 LTC in pool, solo would have been 75 plus fees. That's the way the cookie crumbles.
Just on one unit? Or across multiple miners? 2 units (504x2) what pool are you using? I ordered as well but its my first time. I already asked for some pointers but no-one replied. and how would you mine solo? do you need special software and setups? litecoinpool.org They raised PPS rates from 102% to 105% to 108% this weekend. Either they are tracking ahead on finding blocks or people are moving to other scrypt alts as Litecoin isn't the most profitable scrypt alt at the moment. I would think they want to gain ground. Looking on the total pool sizes F2Pool had over 50% yesterday. And Doge is raising in value and from my understanding they merge mine it no? no need to speculate: Update (2017-05-22): Thanks to the recent changes in relative market prices, we've been able to increase the PPS ratio to 108% basically the same reason it was lowered to 102% earlier

yeah, typical residential wiring isn't built for 24/7 pedal to the metal heavy continuous electrical loads -- one rule of thumb I use: if any connection, like a receptacle, is warm to the touch then it needs to be monitored closely. If it is hot then failure is imminent and it needs to be fixed immediately -- especially in a residential environment. Also need smoke detectors and fire extinguisher for electronics like CO2. Those cheap disposable extinguishers might put the fire out, but may ruin your electronics, and make a huge mess
An ammeter to check actual amp draw on your mining circuits in the breaker panel and laser temp gun can help make things easier to monitor

under continuous load a 200Amp breaker should trip around 160Amp (80%)
It's made to handle temporary surges to 200A but continuous load above 160Amp will eventually trip, from the buildup of heat
