Why the hell do you or any of us care? the fact he (or she) is mining on Eligius and helping US all solve more blocks is A VERY GOOD thing.... so quit worrying about it or who (he or she) is.

On another note... I am working on trying to make my U1s work as efficiently as possible... Can anyone tell me what settings in BFGminer I might tweak? Does the Queue setting make any difference for instance? I know that if it is too low my hashrate drops do to waiting for work but what is a good setting? is there any benefit to increasing it to a certain point or any detriment to setting it too high?

Just a noob here but trying to learn and working on increasing my production. will be doubling my hashrate in a few days and hoping to increase it exponentially soon... If I can find a way to finance my purchase and convert funds to bitcoin to make the purchase of new hardware.

Damn, that guy have slightly more than 1000 times of what my rig is doing...  Must be running a data center somewhere...

With the latest 28nm ASIC's I've seen machines slightly larger than the current cubes capable of 7.5 T H/s I'm hoping / trying to obtain one of these... possibly the little brother of this beast if that is what I can get accomplished. Then I can join the ranks of the serious bitcoin miners..... my measly 6 ghash setup (soon to be 12) is envious of such power to say the least.

Thats good ...but why my last payout from Eligius stays Immature

Because you're paid directly from the mined coins (most secure, as pool doesn't get to touch your coins) and mined coins take 120 confirmations before they can be spent (immature).  This is normal.

Ok it gone 1 day to confirm - does it depend on how much btc must be confirmed ? Also why we have 0.04 payout step when even at 0.08 it still not going in payout queue - btc rises - delay stays 5-6 blocks

Newly minted coins do not mature for 120 confirmations. About 20 hours.

As to the payout queue, it's designed so that it does not pay out until the pool has mined enough to cover it, regardless of your threshold. You'll get your coins. Besides, BTC is down in the exchanges right now anyway. What's the rush?

Just thought I'd give those addresses a little plug. I remembered I hadn't tipped yet so just did. Every little bit helps.

Also is v2.srv.eligius.st:12234 up? I've been on slush since it went down the other day, although I didn't see anyone mentioning they had problems so It might have been something mucking up on my end and it never went down at all

No sweat. I've only been mining a few weeks myself, though I've been involved for a bit over a year.  I watch the prices pretty obsesively myself, but this is a slow downtrend, nothing major. It'll likely correct upwards. I think there are a couple of things driving it down right now. The article mentioned in another post talks about the Chinese new year, which makes sense, but also we just had a difficulty change. There is always a bit of a selloff from miners just before a diff adjustment, and I think this is partially good sense and partially emotion. If you've made enough to take profit and buy more equipment, then it's wise to do so before your mining income drops, so you try to time it as close as possible. If you panic, you'll sell too low. Bitcoin is young. Five years old, to be almost exact. In that time it's gone from being worth literally nothing to (briefly) over 1000 USD. a drop of 80 bucks over a week just before the difficulty change is not unusual, nor worrrysome. If it drops like a rock, it's still not worrysome to me. I look on that as a buy opportunity. If I'd had some spare cash when Silk Road got busted, I would have made a LOT of money on the buy opportunity. It dropped damn near in half, but rebounded within days.

I've now tried three of the major pools. Couldn't connect to ghash.io, no matter how closely I followed their instructions, so they're out for me. I found BTCguild made me less profit and was just not my flavor. Eligius is the best pool out there to my perspective. As I get more equipment, I may point some of it elsewhere to see what happens, but this is my main pool. I like Whizkid, got no problem with Luke-jr, and the pool works good. Even when the stats and payouts were broken it kept working. If a quick buck is all you're after (nothing wrong with that), you might consider mining an alt and trading it for btc. I'm going to try some of that come february, though it's more for fun than for profit. (I aim for both, of course).

+1 on the caring issue

For the ANTminer U1 optimization, I can only speak for the Windows version (I'm running Windows 7 32bit so BFGminer 32bit for me).

I run the following:

Code:

bfgminer -S antminer:all -S erupter:all -S all --set-device antminer:clock=x0981 --icarus-options 115200:2:2 --icarus-timing 2.5=90

I have seen another user further back in this forum run the following:

Code:

bfgminer -S antminer:all -S erupter:all -S all --set-device antminer:clock=x0981 --icarus-options 115200:2:2 --icarus-timing 2.5=90 --weighed-stats

Either way, without making the resistor mods to provide more power to the ASIC chip, the above settings will eek out the maximum hash rate from the U1s

Also, if you run the above, and then do the keystroke S -> W -> ENTER to save the config file bfgminer.conf, then the bottom section should look a little like this:

Code:

"api-mcast-port" : "4028",
"api-port" : "4028",
"expiry" : "120",
"expiry-lp" : "3600",
"gpu-dyninterval" : "7",
"log" : "5",
"no-pool-disable" : true,
"no-show-processors" : true,
"no-show-procs" : true,
"no-unicode" : true,
"queue" : "22",
"scan-time" : "60",
"skip-security-checks" : "0",
"submit-stale" : true,
"temp-hysteresis" : "3",
"shares" : "0",
"kernel-path" : "D:/MinGW/msys/1.0/local/share/bfgminer",
"scan" : [
"antminer:all",
"erupter:all",
"all"
],
"set-device" : [
"antminer:clock=x0981"
],
"icarus-options" : "115200:2:2",
"icarus-timing" : "2.5=90"
}

and then you can just run the BFGminer application by itself without all the command line options because the conf file will load all the settings

Hope this helps.

Adam Back, Inventor of  the Hash-Cash Proof-of-Work used in Bitcoin, referenced article author in the original Satoshi paper, effectively endorses Eligius as he describes its low fees.

Start at minute 38:00

“….Get Block Template which is offered by the Eligius pool, which has about ten percent of hashing power and actually much lower fees than other (pools),  I always wonder why Eligius does not have a much higher portion of the network”

I have been running my U1's with just the first part of that command line and they are working but I was wondering if there was any way to tweak them so their production would be more stable. I'm curious about the last switches in those command lines and what they do. specifically the Icarus options and Icarus timing switches. I hadn't seen those before.  I see in the config file you are running a queue of 22 but perhaps you are running many more units and or have more power than I am running. I know I don't want to have the miners waiting for work but is there any issue with setting the queue too high? ie stale work etc?

I stopped using the icarus settings shown here. It throws off bfgminer's tracking of the average hash rates, plus I found that it reduced my actual work done by about 5%.
