ALLMINE INC - FPGA Cryptominer

[melpheos]

I'm a complete novice when it comes to stuff like this - never even used Linux. Can someone explain to me what the process of using this miner would be? Earlier in the thread someone said it won't be "plug and play"

so I guess my question is: assume we receive the miner tomorrow, what then? What tools/process will be required to get the miner up and running?

If you have never used linux, first start to familiarise with this plateform.
Honestly with Ubuntu, the installation should be a breeze.
However installation an FPGA on it might be a different story (like nvidia card that take a crazy long time to install)
Right now, there is no published miner for FPGA anyway so if you receive tomorrow, you can just leave it in it's box

Actually lots of published miners and algorithms were released for developers over the last few days. They aren’t plug and play for non-technical users, but they exist.

FPGAs are not consumer hardware. “List” price on a chip is as much as 50x what a big buyer pays.

Indeed. I checked them on github but i highly doubt someone who never used Linux can do something with the source and no specific instruction.
I haven't tried to compile anything but I would be extremely suprised if I wouldn't encounter a lot of "dependancy missing" or other much more cryptic errors.

...which is why I have faith in this community to help eachother out with this "new" mining solution. I have no doubts a lot of people will share their experience and how-to's in here. Otherwise we'd be looking at a lot of expensive door-stoppers...

And sold out!

Was about to buy one and missed my chance

And sold out!

Was about to buy one and missed my chance

Yes, sales have closed!

Email sales@squirrelsresearch.com (quickly) to be put on first waiting list for any cancellations.

Also good news guys - all BCU-1525 orders are coming with risers specifically designed and validated for us for these boards!

If you’re not using them with risers that’s fine, but if you are we’d prefer you have ones that won’t blow up

We’re working to offer great prices on board to board cables - more on that soon.

My stupid bank cancelled my wire that i ordered on monday for some weird reason (saying that the Morgan Chase account is an intermediary account) after asking me some documentation regarding my purchase (like I need to justify my purchase to my bank, WTF, it's my money)
Sent them a mail with the first account information but they haven't processed the wire yet

My second order with crypto this morning went thru in 10 minutes, no questions asked.

Now, if someone tells me that crypto is not far superior to fiat, well i have a proof to the contrary.

Under Euro 3 bank regulation, online swift by retail customer (us) can't be faster than 3 days from Europe to US. SO if you pay today in euro Allmine will get them on Monday in their account.

To further speed up, as normal and not business customer, you must walk to your bank.
Well, at least that's what they told me this morning

I have made two payment from EU and they were verified in my account on the fpga.land in just two days so EU to US transfers take definetly less than 3 days and with no extra cost at least from my bank.

Well you are lucky because I ordered my wire on Monday, been asked some question on Tuesday, they ran the wire on Thursday, cancelled it the same day for some weird reason (second bank - Morgan Chase - is supposedely a intermediary bank) and they might run it again tomorrow (with a 50€ on top as fee - cancelled but...)

Well, it looks like it depends on the banks and their agreements. I have transferred directly to Morgan Chase and the cost was just 30€ which is the standard fee. I hope you get your payment processed.

hello dear , I look at you github , but not see cryptonight v7 ?

crpytonight v7 possible mining ?

They already explained it: cryptonight 1 monero variant 7 is the real name for what is called cryptonight v7.
So yes. 14KH/s is what people should get mining XMR.

No one that I know of is planning to release the source for CN, what was released was the source for older algorithms as examples to help more developers build

When will there be another opportunity to buy again?

Thank You

Thank You

Not before 2019... You can still buy directly from two vendors but more expensive and without the mining mods.
You can also read the thread

so what are the algo provided for now? all the available minus new one right? also this group buy or whatver is intended for european only or usa only? because there is customs to pay for us

I'm working on EU manuf to deal with the VAT issues. It's not going to be a problem for me to ship worldwide. I shipped a couple of FPGA boards recently internationally. The requirements weren't what I was expecting. But, for EU customers, I'd like to ship from the EU.

No algos are available yet. I believe whitefire will release his first one on 5/30. You'll have to check his thread.

Any way to make it easier to have this manufactured in China and shipped to HK?

No.  The cards need to be flashed with the encryption keys before they go to the customer, and Allmine/senseless/GPUhoarder are not going to send you the keys...

[melpheos]

Godamnit my bank is bloody stupid !
They are saying again something about the Morgan Chase account being an intermediary bank... WTH is an intermediary bank
I gave them both accounts and they cannot do a simple wire transfert outside Europe !!!
Crypto is faster and simpler !

Of course they are not!  But I don't mind them coming over and I can take care of the accommodation given that senseless might already be within the area (correct me if I am wrong!)

After we ship we'll plan some sort of service allowing people to pay for shipping to send us their card and have it fused.
