I sent some requests for the ability for our hardware wallets (specifically ledger) to have access to both chains after the split. Should be interesting to see if they take this on; or I wont be using it anymore, possibly not even after the split.
Got an answer back from ledger. They say they will add the functionality in their chrome plugin to choose what chain its operating on. In essence, a dual-chain device now. Interesting. Waiting to see if they have a timeframe for the functionality to be available... *edit* I just got the response... "It should be happening in the coming weeks, the next or the week after basically depending how early Segwit2x activation goes" Excellent. This leave some easy options for guys like me who can't exactly download/maintain a blockchain because i'm on a cellular link at near all my sites.... do you have a ledger link to purchase one? |

She saw it on my amazon WTB list not knowing exactly what it was. |

afaiu there is a backlog with hardware wallet shops now and it would be hard to get one in before Aug 1st - don't take my word for it, if you can get one in time, great. (btw i don't recommend them anyway, but that's offtopic here)the main thing is not to spend any bitcoin just before and for a good while after any split. some software wallets have announced their plans re splits already. afaik no exchanges have done so yet - that is dangerous territory anyway would be nice to know nicehash's plans... found this helpful https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2012799.0 [Guide] Handling splits: UASFs, BIP148, etc. esp this part: What should I do to secure my bitcoins?
First of all, remove all bitcoins possible from banks/exchanges/"hosted wallets". If you can't export your private keys, then you don't actually control the bitcoins. This is a good idea in general, but it's especially important in case of splits. If you're using a Bitcoin bank, then you will have no control over what happens to your coins. Quite possibly, the bank will end up stealing/losing one of the currencies that you should have access to, either through greed/malice or technical incompetence, and the currency they throw away might well be the only one that ends up having any long-term value.
Possible splits are usually predictable some time in advance (see the next section). If in doubt, avoid sending transactions or trusting received transactions 12 hours before and up to a few days after the split time, and check the forum for more news. If a major split happens, I will very likely make a post and news item explaining how to handle the situation. Coins at rest are not at risk.
Generally, after a split:
- If you want to completely ignore (ie. discard) one of the currencies, and your wallet is already set up to ignore that currency, then you don't have to do anything.
- If you want to completely ignore (ie. discard) one of the currencies, and your wallet is set up to support only that currency, then you might be able to change the software's settings after the split, or you might have to switch to different wallet software.
- If you want to use both currencies at the same time or sell one of the currencies, then you will probably have to follow a somewhat-complicated series of steps possibly involving running some extra software in order to cleanly split your coins and eliminate the possibility of replay.
........
...........
The next time when a split is predicted to possibly happen is therefore August 1, 2017 at midnight UTC.
During that period it might be unwise to buy and sell gpus etc unless terms are very very clear. |

Converted my stock RX470s 6xGPU TB85 to the 12xGPU Biostar TB250-BTC PRO Got it to work with 11 GPUs on smOS. Will continue to trouble shoot after dinner and test with nvOC with 12 x Zotac 1070 Mini -- cant wait. If I have time I will try the 2 Claymore instances/windows with RX470 and 1070s; 6 x GPUs in each session in Windows.\ ETH: Share accepted (7 ms)!

So I have got all my risers and I am trying to do 4 1080ti's on one board with 2 risers. So that is 10 6/8 pin connectors. I only have 8 and a 1000W PSU. Two of those 8 cables have this kind of cable on it. WHen is it ok to use this kind of cable. Can you power one 1080 ti off this cable? I tested it on an older card and I worked I dunno what kinda power it draws though but it required an 8pin and a 6pin.  My risers are these https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.aliexpress.com%2Fitem%2FUpdated-New-USB-3-0-PCI-E-Express-1x-Extender-Riser-Card-Adapter-SATA-6-PIN%2F32819031074.html&h=ATNjbNrZld8_ZY3wO7SEjlUCp6uV1rVMf0bV4Ozd2RjnMO29kHyjvhTHHg10oV-qmjvGRBlhX4skXRKlDfYGUyzjtNbpz0Rx0PE8jI7PGYcf1nKWpiRZDPkfFxHlk8QhLteMeGieEzwThey come with this kind of cable. Which I understand is not powerful enough to power 1080ti in a riser. https://i.imgur.com/8vy7119.jpgWould this work instead? My only worry is that I will only be able to power one riser this way becuase both PSU's I have only have 125w accross teh +3.3v and +5v rails or do the perifial cables also run on the +12V main rail? https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1PC-New-PCI-E-6-Pin-to-2X-4-Pin-Dual-4Pin-Graphics-Video-Display-Card/32731993629.html?ws_ab_test=searchweb0_0,searchweb201602_5_10152_10065_10151_10068_10084_10083_10080_10082_10081_10110_10136_10137_10175_10111_10060_10112_10113_10155_10114_5360016_10154_438_10056_10055_10054_10182_10059_100031_10099_10078_10079_10103_10073_10102_10189_10052_10053_10142_10107_10050_10051,searchweb201603_1,ppcSwitch_7&btsid=b7415050-1ce1-4113-b92c-ee351b891843&algo_expid=64f036fc-17d0-4aa3-83ed-2f5bee714d41-1&algo_pvid=64f036fc-17d0-4aa3-83ed-2f5bee714d41Or this?

The seasonic and silverstone seem to use a standard pin out so I was thinking those generic cables from ali express might be the go. Both my 1000W PSU have several free slots for PCI-e Power cables, I just don't have enough left. Appreciate any help as I am running a whole extra rig that I dont need to run. |

If they are semi stock clocks etc they will clock better than already clocked ones. My EVGA FE editions can do +200 core and had them upto 600 mem. Those clock teh highest. I have some EVGA SC Black. They do +125 and having really pushed the memory yet but have done at least 300. I am guessing I can go higher than 125 also but I have not pushed them. Aorus cards generally wont go over 60-100 for core but memory will clock pretty high. THink I had my over 650. Just google your card. Or push it up slowly. If they have stock clock 14-1500, you will likely be able to get 100-200 out of them. Please be careful when clocking though. Just take what I have typed as a guide and be conservative and google what other people have got with those cards. Bare in mind alot of results you may find on google will be power levels overclocked and sometimes even core voltage so you need to weed those ones out. |

I sent some requests for the ability for our hardware wallets (specifically ledger) to have access to both chains after the split. Should be interesting to see if they take this on; or I wont be using it anymore, possibly not even after the split.
Got an answer back from ledger. They say they will add the functionality in their chrome plugin to choose what chain its operating on. In essence, a dual-chain device now. Interesting. Waiting to see if they have a timeframe for the functionality to be available... *edit* I just got the response... "It should be happening in the coming weeks, the next or the week after basically depending how early Segwit2x activation goes" Excellent. This leave some easy options for guys like me who can't exactly download/maintain a blockchain because i'm on a cellular link at near all my sites.... do you have a ledger link to purchase one? I had no idea such a thing existed... Is it like a discount/promo code or something? I like my ledger. Holds the cold storage =) Mine was a gift from my mother surprisingly. She saw it on my amazon WTB list not knowing exactly what it was. in the meantime I built a new wallet on core 14 13pQVwqs9SRkHAWQEt1FJTRaJAc3BDwee2 is the first address. I am also upgrading an 11 core to a 14 core. so I will have 2 core wallets to hold coin in. okay they are on amazon I will take a look for it. The new wallet is on win 10 and an empty 500 gb ssd very fast to load it. I will need to back it up. I will clone it with a cloner. In the meantime the rebuilt one is slow to load.  |

You can order a ledger off their website, but shipping is expensive, and it wont ship until early september.

yeah looks like that ship sailed. I ordered a trezor and put 0.01 btc in it . Seems to work okay but I think I will need to leave it alone for now. I reduced the miners alot. I got good prices selling all the 1070's And the rx 480's I have to decide what to do in the next few weeks. I get two new 1080ti's today ordered 9 days ago. The price was okay 683 each. But the cards do not earn like they were. I may list them in the marketplace rathe then open them. Or I may sit on them until august 2-5 |

Hello guys, i'm new to the mining business, bad timing for what i've seen in this thread  I've got my KFA2 GTX 1060 6G at a stable 24 MH/s Eth (W10) and i wonder what would be the most profitable thing to mine with it. (and if you have any advice about it, it would be awesome.  ) I'm considering building a rig but don't really know what would be the best GPU to buy, any advice? i'm living in EU and considering investing about 2,5K€ (6 or 8 GPU). The goal been first, not loose any money over it, then try to earn some while having fun discovering.  ty for your time guys. |

So I have got all my risers and I am trying to do 4 1080ti's on one board with 2 risers. So that is 10 6/8 pin connectors. I only have 8 and a 1000W PSU. Two of those 8 cables have this kind of cable on it. WHen is it ok to use this kind of cable. Can you power one 1080 ti off this cable? I tested it on an older card and I worked I dunno what kinda power it draws though but it required an 8pin and a 6pin. My risers are these https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.aliexpress.com%2Fitem%2FUpdated-New-USB-3-0-PCI-E-Express-1x-Extender-Riser-Card-Adapter-SATA-6-PIN%2F32819031074.html&h=ATNjbNrZld8_ZY3wO7SEjlUCp6uV1rVMf0bV4Ozd2RjnMO29kHyjvhTHHg10oV-qmjvGRBlhX4skXRKlDfYGUyzjtNbpz0Rx0PE8jI7PGYcf1nKWpiRZDPkfFxHlk8QhLteMeGieEzwThey come with this kind of cable. Which I understand is not powerful enough to power 1080ti in a riser. https://i.imgur.com/8vy7119.jpgWould this work instead? My only worry is that I will only be able to power one riser this way becuase both PSU's I have only have 125w accross teh +3.3v and +5v rails or do the perifial cables also run on the +12V main rail? https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1PC-New-PCI-E-6-Pin-to-2X-4-Pin-Dual-4Pin-Graphics-Video-Display-Card/32731993629.html?ws_ab_test=searchweb0_0,searchweb201602_5_10152_10065_10151_10068_10084_10083_10080_10082_10081_10110_10136_10137_10175_10111_10060_10112_10113_10155_10114_5360016_10154_438_10056_10055_10054_10182_10059_100031_10099_10078_10079_10103_10073_10102_10189_10052_10053_10142_10107_10050_10051,searchweb201603_1,ppcSwitch_7&btsid=b7415050-1ce1-4113-b92c-ee351b891843&algo_expid=64f036fc-17d0-4aa3-83ed-2f5bee714d41-1&algo_pvid=64f036fc-17d0-4aa3-83ed-2f5bee714d41Or this?

The seasonic and silverstone seem to use a standard pin out so I was thinking those generic cables from ali express might be the go. Both my 1000W PSU have several free slots for PCI-e Power cables, I just don't have enough left. Appreciate any help as I am running a whole extra rig that I dont need to run. If you have those risers (v6?) - the one with PCIE molex, you could get that Y cable with 2 x 6+2 pins. That will save you having to use an extension to access SATA power. I have used both PCIE molex and SATA powered PCIE extension on my Aorus 1080ti and Zotax AMP Extreme without any issues. Sorry can you explain what you mean clearer. I am not getting my head around it probably sorry. Which Y cable? the one I posted? And use that from my PSU to power the risers? I don't have any of those cables yet I would have to buy them so is the Y splitter better than using the 2x 4pin molex or the 2x sata to 6 pin molex? I still dont know which rail those connectors are on if it is safe to use those or not. For your Aorus did you use this? https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1PC-New-PCI-E-6-Pin-to-2X-4-Pin-Dual-4Pin-Graphics-Video-Display-Card/32731993629.html?ws_ab_test=searchweb0_0,searchweb201602_5_10152_10065_10151_10068_10084_10083_10080_10082_10081_10110_10136_10137_10175_10111_10060_10112_10113_10155_10114_5360016_10154_438_10056_10055_10054_10182_10059_100031_10099_10078_10079_10103_10073_10102_10189_10052_10053_10142_10107_10050_10051,searchweb201603_1,ppcSwitch_7&btsid=b7415050-1ce1-4113-b92c-ee351b891843&algo_expid=64f036fc-17d0-4aa3-83ed-2f5bee714d41-1&algo_pvid=64f036fc-17d0-4aa3-83ed-2f5bee714d41 Directly into your Aorus or do you mean for the riser? Id rather use the main cables for my cards and anything else for risers. |

You can order a ledger off their website, but shipping is expensive, and it wont ship until early september.
yeah looks like that ship sailed. I ordered a trezor and put 0.01 btc in it . Seems to work okay but I think I will need to leave it alone for now. I reduced the miners alot. I got good prices selling all the 1070's And the rx 480's I have to decide what to do in the next few weeks. I get two new 1080ti's today ordered 9 days ago. The price was okay 683 each. But the cards do not earn like they were. I may list them in the marketplace rathe then open them. Or I may sit on them until august 2-5 how many TI do you currently have phil and you say their earnings are down, by how much for you? |

I think I am at 10 of them only 8 mining and at zec they are pretty low 8 of them at nicehash are doing as low as 2.50 each or 20 a day mining zcash. they burn 1300 watts or 31 kwatts a day at 10 cents = 3.10 so 20 - 3.10 = 16.90 a day round down say 16 a day after power. but they are pretty much fully paid off. so 500 a month net no debt far cry from 3 grand a month - 600 power = 2400 a month net. |

What is your gameplan for the rest of the year? also for your msi aero what did you find to be the best sol/watt setting? |

What is your gameplan for the rest of the year? also for your msi aero what did you find to be the best sol/watt setting? 65% 200 core -500 ram 75% manual fan. My home power is stupid high in the summer once you count in added ac I am at 20 cents. So my in house mining is at 500 watts now. or 12 kwatts or 2.40 a day in power cost and I think I am earning about 4 dollars so in the garage I net 1-2 dollars a day. I have a few bs set ups in the house. the solar array has the 8 active 1080 ti's my deal is 50-50 split of coins at 0 power cost so if they gross 20 a day bucks I get 10 bucks a day . On the 8 active they are fully paid off so 10 bucks a day net. So maybe I now net 12 a day. and I have not paid off the 2 newest cards or used them at all . Still good but this was a solid crash. |

I feel ya phil. This feels like the days when zpool was xpool.... just scraping by on small profits back then. Are you only on ZEC with your nvidia gear? I have been maintaining a nice steady profit with NIST5; it hasn't been huge, but its been reliable to me as skien was before.... http://zpool.ca/?address=1kLsGT9egk3utSKZH46ydTbKj5oMnmBoNhttp://zpool.ca/?address=1PHSDYvVp6HpqtuUPocK41DrdeHbbezaePI am missing the days of 10mbtc/2days with my 3x 1070 equivalent hashrate; now with my 2x 1070 equivalent; I am lucky to see 15mbtc/week.... DGB being < 400 is quite a hit to the algos as well. if it werent so low, skien would be better still. At least network diff on DGB will be dropping again finally. My home pc used to find many blocks/day when it was not on the radar. |

The 10 cards clear 28 a day. I knew we were in trouble once the cards sold out. At this point nvidia and amd had zero incentive to prop prices up. next month should be fun. |

I am waiting for people to start dumping off their 1060 and 1070's after a half reclaim on ROI.... you will finally see the cards for what they should be selling for ~160 for a 1060 and ~260 for a 1070. Those are more realistic second-hand prices.
I just had a local guy on CL debate with me on how his EVGA GTX1060 that he bought for $200 shelf price a month ago are not worth the $320 he was asking for them.... and when I worked him down to $220 cash for one card, that was advertised as being "BNIB", I asked for a zoomed in in focus picture of the PCIE plug to see if it is indeed unused, wherein I got no response back.
So yeah; I am glad I got my buddy to build his miners before all this fell apart (the 1Kls link); hes already paid off most if not all of it; and all the profits from now on are clean cut. His power for his house is included in his rent; so he's heating his house for the summer XD
