[ANN] Ethereum: Welcome to the Beginning

[bitfish]

Incredible. Starting to get my head around The DAO and its implications.

One in every seven ethers is tied up in the DAO. It will be a spectacular price implosion.

Watch spectacular ETH volume my friend. BTC holders are switching.

[Pizpie]

Plutus.it just announced that ETH will be made available as a form of payment at any store or merchant using a NFC payment terminal.

We made sure to listen to the vast amounts feedback from our community. As a result, we are developing a DAO proposal and updates which include adding eth (Ξthereum) as a full-fledged payment method to Plutus Tap & Pay.
I also have to address previous misconceptions about the external usage limitations of Plutons. The situation is actually more favorable than some suppose:
Participants from the crowdsale can trade their tokens on the DEX or send them to friends within the app.
Participants who receive tokens via rebate, from a friend or via the DEX can trade elsewhere - anywhere they want.
Because Plutus interacts with the heavily regulated traditional payments industry, these restriction for crowdsale wallets would be required to comply with certain guidelines. This means, wallets that receive Plutons from the sale have to be moved within the system first before they can be used externally.
However, as I mentioned before - we are developing several improvements, which include the Plutus DAO proposal and ETH as a payment option on the Plutus app. This will also remove the restrictions mentioned above.
More details will be announced later this week.

any reference out there that lists the expected hash rates of different cards ?

Big dump incoming. + 50% in 4 days, that´s not stable just another nice pump a dump.

hello guys, been out of the mining scene since august but looks like gpu mining is once again profitable !

i still have 6 x 290's + 2 x 7900 + 3 x 6900's

does anybody know where to start ? any mining software + a pool recommendation would be greatly appreciated !

is there any method to increase Hasrat, can setting in the software or very good program for hashing, looking at the statistics, you see that on the same hardware on the same pool with the same software from different miners, different heraty, why does it depend ? can an incorrectly configured software to influence Hasrat ? and when overclocked card you can get the maximum hash or not ?

and yet, as you can reduce the voltage on the graphics card?

Of course if you have some strange settings on the cards they will perform differently. Also the drivers used can have a great impact on the hashrate. Using Catalyst 16.3 could reduce the hashrate with 30% compared to 14 for example (stated on dwarfpool).

I'm not running any cards overclocked but I haven't seen any major increase in speeds by increasing the gpu clock speed.

not completely sure, because coinbase will add eth VERY soon. ( some hours ago, there was the eth/btc-usd fees on coinbase exchange too)


oh, and okcoin will follow ..

I run my cards at stock clocks and speeds, so I have not tried to undervolt them. You could try and see if there are any larger reduction of the power usage without reducing the speed too much. But I have not tested so I cannot say.

Also, people are jumping up and down throwing any available eth at the DAO. 11.13 million ether are tied up to this 155 MUSD contract at the moment. this too is driving the price up on ether and will likely continue as everybody is scared of being left out of the DAO ICO.

I've just cashed out half of my coins for a hansom little profit! I'm going to wait and see what happens with the rest...

If this was an ordinary altcoin, I might agree with Wolf that a price correction is usually expected after a sudden rise. However, this is not an ordinary altcoin.

Ether has a $1,126,781,317 market capitalisation at this current time. No other altcoin talks in $Billions. There is a lot of money invested in Ether by Big Business ... and I mean Big ... and this is increasing by the day. Most of you know this already ... if not, do your research. There are lots of reasons why 'we ain't seen nothin yet!' ... as others have pointed out.

I believe that we are on the edge of a technological revolution with Ethereum at the forefront. I believe that we are witnessing the page being turned on a new moment in history.

That is right. Microsoft, IBM and many other big business invest a lot of money in the technology based on Ethereum.

You mean that you have cashed out from the DAO or simply exchanged eth for BTC? You quoted me so I was thinking you are talking about the DAO?

Hey guys, what do you think about this comparising? Lisk will go on exchanges on may 24th, so i'm thinking about investing some bits into this strong hyped startup. You guys can confirm what is promoted or is this hype just pushed by too many Investors?

.......

I think it's pretty outdated but I can't say so much for the contents. I've seen it being published a lot in the Lisk thread. If I where to buy into Lisk, I'd wait a while after launch and scope up cheaper tokens once every nervous holder starts dumping, as the price doesn't go to 1-2---10 USD per Lisk as they are speculating about.
