[ANN] Spondoolies-Tech - carrier grade, data center ready mining rigs

I'd be surprised if the website were necessary for function. Isn't it mostly just for easy detection of miners on your network?

me too, I just want Guy to confirm.
Similarly, BMT at some point introduced some required connection to some obscure IP address to initialize mining, then promptly disconnected this address, causing mining stoppage on reboot. Incidentally, later versions of their firmware apparently had the same code, but relevant commands were commented out.

myminer.io service will be down soon.

does it mean that all SP30ies and SP20 won't be able to initialize, or it is not critical?
I remember that my miners were connecting to that portal.
can you spell it out in clear terms, please.

It is NOT critical - just for easy detection of miners on your network as sidehack said.
We will have to just use network scanner and myminer.io wasn't always working 100% for me anyway.

I've offered to host this service.

me too. i have bandwidth, IP space and Servers.

The Miners will continue to work of course.
It's a matter of credit card charges on Google Apps account.
Transferring any kind of IP, even such small one is complicated.

If you use your imagination, you can think of various ways that the software could be modified to provide a benefit that would make ordinary people want to run a miner, which would break up the centralization.

I have an imagination, but I usually temper it with a dose of reality. I'm not sure how such things can be implemented without either breaking the core code, or forking the coin. Then you have an altcoin. That's what all altcoins claim to be doing: something different.

I think a lot of people are revisiting the assumption that there will be 'one coin to rule them all'.

http://stanfordreview.org/article/one-coin-to-rule-them-all/

Quote: “What’s often overlooked in systems like Bitcoin is that even if the technology doesn’t succeed, it reminds us that there are always twelve other ways to do something different from the way we’re doing it now, and that one of these ways might actually function better than the system we’re currently using. That alone is worth a lot.”

 Betamax.

 The "better" system does NOT always win - sometimes "good enough" with more widespread support is the winner.

So what you're saying is, we should wait to see what coin the porn industry gets behind (giggity)?

Clearly, more research into this topic is required.

I wonder if is so complicated as you think.  I think its not so hard.

 I never used it on my SP20E. It's NOT needed.

[alh]

I can also confirm that the myminer.io website is NOT required. I never actually used it. I logged into my router to find the IP address that had been assigned. The other alternative is to use an IP "scanner" to scan you local network to find it.

myminer.io is strictly a convenience. No great loss in my opinion.

[sidehack]

Remind me to continue not using that service...

[Finksy]

I found it more effective to use a DHCP server individually and peg the IP that way. The SP20's always had the addresses leftover in the cache which would eventually start to overlap on an overfull LAN.

For those that are interested, it appears that BTCS is now at $.022/share. I have watched this because I was foolish enough to purchase some BTCS last year. I had forgot the phrase "due diligence"....

oof thats painful. TBH im surprised it took so long beyond the bankruptcy.   From a mining point of view tough, perhaps this is a more reasonable price for the BTCS mining farm (particularly with BTC - and thus mining profits- up)

day after the bankrupttcy i looked all over the place for a way to short the stock,  but its virtually impossible to short the pink sheets without a very specialized brokerage (most dont). too bad, would have been 400% profits...
