Anyone who ordered an S9 ... words from a Bitmain employee
"so…my S9 doesn’t work on the pool"
"works on antpool"
Heh - oh well ... I guess it's expected that Bitmain would do something like that sooner or later ...
All my S7s came defaulted to Antpoo. Yup...surprise, surprise...  Spot at CEX is USD$577. Ouch. Need to get back online w/S7s. |
To infinity and beyond...on two 741s and one of only 3...nope, make that 4...full nodes in Hawaii...on <30A. (I have other gear on the Hoth ice planet)

Really? Imagine if they really hard coded to only use antpool, that I hope would create a boycott. |

It's not hard coded, it's just likely completely untested. Never attribute to malice what can easily explained by ignorance. They checked it worked on antpool, they ship it. Doesn't matter to them if they broke the protocol. As for the boycott... I hate to tell you this but realistically in this world the chance of that happening is negative infinity. |

Really? Imagine if they really hard coded to only use antpool, that I hope would create a boycott. They've added a new unknown stratum method to all your S9 miners ... who knows what it does. "mining.multi_version" Antpool obviously uses it to do something to your mining ... ... ... what? ... who knows. |

Yeah too many people have no backbone to stand against a shtty company and only think of making $$ even though they'll probably never ROI. Lol. |

"mining.multi_version" Antpool obviously uses it to do something to your mining ... ... ... what? ... who knows. and i thought my rentals stopping halfway was bad, when I woke up this morning.... I placed an order for 1 x S9 to continue mining BTC. Less power consumption, more hashes, no brainer. If there was another company that sells better gear with good repute, I will buy from them. For now, only Bitmain is shipping the 16nm ASICS gear. If there is another provider that sell better deals for renting hash, I would buy from them. For now, only NH and MRR exist. IMHO, it will be unwise for BITMAIN to rig the S9 only to mine at their pool - if Antpool is 30-35% of global pool size, why would they forego the other 70% .... what would the other Chinese pool, like F2pool, BTCC etc. say to this? Leaving profit on the table does not compute.... Meanwhile.... BLOCK!!! I have never seen so much/many payouts in my kano.is life.... |

Didn't bitmain do a similar thing with their shitty code that made their miners not work properly with p2pool? I guess they are slowly getting rid of any competition.......

IMHO you wrongly asume they aware of situation like you are. I think we (forum active members) do not anticipate majority oblivious miners who "plug-in and forget" their Bitmain gear and never come here and never try looking for other than factory default pool. Most who I speak to educate will not "risk" to evaluate difference within recommended month long period and go back after one day saying:"Antpoo pays more" and they give sh... for "good for Bitcoin cause" since they driven poorly by short-sighted greed. Isn't obvious that we are here very very small (but elite  ) group of all miner gear owners? I think the majority are like fridge owners - you don't hung on fridge owners forum, do you? |
