Hi all

Will there be a live cam at bitcoin Wednesday today  

A gentile reminder about tonights Amsterdam event !

There will be NO streaming !!
A pro video guy will be recording, but how fast we (i) get this video totally depends on the main Amsterdam guy (Richart) !
he know we are keen to see it, but this is his show, so if he sends it to me 2 days after (or whenever), it is up to him !
He knows (i talked to him about it) that we (community) are keen to see this ASAP,
but, he will do what he has to do, as it is his event !

So please relax
and lets wait for it
tx
hope you understand
 

Edit:
please bump this a couple of times
as i know there will be some 'antsy' community members around

I'll go work it out, but because I'm lazy I'll ask first.  How many hours away are we from the from Evan's talk any ways?

Is anyone from here or the official forum going to be there and maybe make a few posts?  

7:00 PM to 11:30 PM local time
(that is in 9 hours, roundabout)

so Cryptsy let me withdraw BTC. only thing missing are the Dash at the moment...

[toknormal]

This is a great site. I just discovered it. The deployment timeline's an interesting new angle. Quite a few new Russian nodes starting to appear.

Can't believe the amount of eco-system support springing up all over the place.

nice one. not an easy / short text, i would bet she had to repeat this 20 times or more.

and she looks so pretty doing it

meaning what?

I withdrew BTC from Cryptsy for I wanted fiat. They were "Pending" with zero confirmations for two days (during that malleability attack discussed @ https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1198032.0) and are now gone from Coinbase. CB guys were assuring me, for those two days, that "my coins are safe" but now with them gone from my transaction history I kind of worry...

Hi,

I've produced the unofficial interpretation of our official «What is Dash?» video.



I hope it will be actively used in some cases (in addition to official version).

It isn’t «fake news» - just a one more «landing page» and way to more effectively grab attention of audience and get more effective response.

P.S.
«Alex-ru studio» video production - I can produce video for your project!

Disclaimer: I am not a miner or a gamer, so don't go too hard on me if this is a ridiculous idea.


Would it be possible to mine Dash on consoles (PlayStation, Xbox etc)?

I've had someone offer me a PS3 fairly cheap and I'm probably going to go ahead and get it because I've read that with a little tinkering I can put Linux on it, set it up as a media centre, play Blu-ray discs and maybe even play the odd game or two that he's throwing in. I don't know know if the PS4 or any of the Xboxes can run Linux but I imagine that if the PS3 can, at least it may be theoretically possible to mine with.

I'm sure I'm not the first cryptocurrency enthusiast to come up with the idea though, no doubt someone here will know how viable it is. At what sort of electricity prices could it be profitable?

Well, a quick google search shows that they've made a miner for Bitcoin.  Notes I've found is that some of the latest firmware blocks the ability to run linux on the PS3, but maybe it can be dialed back.  But the biggest problem is to find a miner for X11 that runs on their video card, which isn't AMD or Nvidia.  So actually, I'm gonna say no.  The Bitcoin miner was created back in 2011 when everyone was still mining on a GPU, and I think the interest has died away.

it's true, Sony released a firmware in 2010 that blocks installing other OS like Linux http://blog.us.playstation.com/2010/03/28/ps3-firmware-v3-21-update/ i know because I used to run YellowDog on there.  I think you can downgrade with a dongle but then you can't use psn.  now you have to pay for psn on ps4.  shame because Cell processor was awesome. Walled garden at it's best

EDIT: i don't think current X11 miners would work on their anyway like TanteStefana2 said, it has custom RSX graphics chip.  but Cell processor had 8 parallel processing units, would be interesting to try to parallelize X11 on their directly, probably not that useful though

I did some folding on my PS3, which uses the GPU similar to mining.  But is wasn't very efficient - I think it was close to a 7850 in speed but used 250 watts.  You would be better off with a 750TI that only uses 50 Watts with about the same hashrate.  And a 750TI is barely profitable with most electric rates.

Unfortunately, even folding is now cutoff from the PS3 apps so you can't even donate to a good cause.

Thanks guys for your input.

In this article from December 28, 2014 it does mention "For those sceptical that the now 8-year-old hardware is still cost-effective, even with free consoles it is marginal. RAM is an issue and modern graphics cards are each equivalent to 20 PS3s.": http://hackaday.com/2014/12/28/college-researcher-makes-supercomputer-from-420-ps3s/

Obviously the PS4 is more powerful I imagine more efficient and would be a better choice but without looking into it too much, seems to be even more locked down than its predecessor.

I think I'll get the PS3 anyway, it definitely looks possible to put a GNU/Linux OS on it as well as the normal PS3 system, either by jailbreaking or downgrading and should be possible to access PSN too if I'm not mistaken, and to dust off the old PS2 games that must be around somewhere and play them too! Anyway, starting to get off-topic here, so I'll leave it that.

(I'm sure it won't always work as perfectly as that but lets enjoy a perfect moment of theory-meets-practice for once   )

Nice place to wait until price will do this:

Thanks!

There is always problem with music - "everyone likes different music".
My intentions with "news music" was not to make video cute, but to appeal to instincts - to prompt people switching their brains on and getting maximum information in limited time period.

No, she is professional actress. I like her work.
