When bitcoin is actually "mainstream" and the volumes of transactions that we are seeing today, is becoming a normal thing, how will the network handle it?
on a side note, does anyone know when the attack will stop? any estimates
No the TX can be rebroadcasted or it will be forgotten by the network. If its forgotten you have your coins back. Depending on the service you use this might require you to contact their support.
Private Shared Function GetMD5Hash(ByVal md5hash As MD5, ByVal input As String) As String Dim data As Byte() = md5hash.ComputeHash(Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(input)) Dim sBuilder As New StringBuilder() For i As Integer = 0 To data.Length - 1 sBuilder.Append(data(i).ToString("x2")) Next i Return sBuilder.ToString() End Function Public Shared Function CompareThem(ByVal hashedStr As String, ByVal str As String) As Boolean Dim md5hash As MD5 = MD5.Create() Dim comparer As StringComparer = StringComparer.OrdinalIgnoreCase If comparer.Compare(hashedStr, GetMD5Hash(md5hash, str)) = 0 Then Return True Else Return False End If End Function

Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click If RadioButton1.Checked Then Dim input As String input = TextBox1.Text Dim hash As String = "" Using md5hash As MD5 = MD5.Create() hash = GetMD5Hash(md5hash, Input) End Using TextBox2.Text = hash End If If RadioButton2.Checked Then Dim base64Decoded As String = TextBox1.Text Dim base64Encoded As String Dim data As Byte() data = System.Text.ASCIIEncoding.ASCII.GetBytes(base64Decoded) base64Encoded = System.Convert.ToBase64String(data) TextBox2.Text = base64Encoded
End If
End Sub
Private Sub Button2_Click(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click If RadioButton2.Checked = True Then Dim base64Encoded As String = TextBox1.Text Dim base64Decoded As String Dim data() As Byte data = System.Convert.FromBase64String(base64Encoded) base64Decoded = System.Text.ASCIIEncoding.ASCII.GetString(data) TextBox2.Text = base64Decoded
The idea is to have a credit system, where lets say 1 credit = 1Mbtc, to open an account you sign up, give as much personal information as your WILLING to give, and you start off with that base amount, so lets say you spend 1 BTC, it will take away 1000 credits, then you have to pay back 1.1BTC, interest rates will depend on your trust level. The more you pay off and the faster, the more credits you will be allowed, so after paying off 1.1BTC you get allowed 100 more credits + those 1000 credits.
Questions:
Would you be willing to sign up for this?
Would you invest in this, on crypto stocks?
This is just an idea, noting offcial yet, if ever.
contact me if you want help making this a reality?

its working, no virus, scanned it and decompiled, all safe and working!
I was thinking, what would happen if someone created a 3D printed miner, Like the base of the miner, and the chips mounted on the inside. It would lower the cost of production, and allow a lot more customization.
You might be able to print a PCB and the case, you can't print chips, heatsinks and components.
i know i know i know.

Re: SELLING ALL BITCOIN & PAYPAL | 5% RATE FOR ORDERS UNDER $50+ | 1:1 FOR $50+
so you will basically just be 3d printing a plastic enclosure? (which if you want >10 of could probably be done better quality for cheaper overseas) then youll simply connect an RPI, PSU, and 'chips'? "chips" require control boards and software, as well as power delivery. its not gonna be some GPIO attachment for an RPI. What about heatsinks? fans?
If building a miner was this easy I would have built it already, but without a plastic housing that obstructs airflow
ps: GUI requires 'interface'. Are you saying that you'll be building a touchscreen into the front of the unit? I think what you meant was a small status LCD or a panel of LEDS.
Like i said, it would be a "Plug-And-Play" product, you buy the product, connect it to Ethernet and plug it in, then you're ready to mine. Heatsinks and fans will be implimented, im still looking at the most efficient way to do it..
My bad, not a GUI... Although a touchscreen into the front would be cool!
Like I've said, this is just an idea..

Thank You For answers , , one more question : 14 s5 cost me 6720$ with out psu i could get 20th/s in genesis cloud with 7800 which one do u prefer , having your own setup , or cloud services ?
having your own setup gives you much more control, and is a ton safer for long-term mining..

I dont think you guys are understanding what i mean...
Basically to create the product i do a few things
- 3d Print my case - Buy chips - Buy PSU - Buy Raspberry PI - Buy a few other ad-ons for the pi
This will all come together as a "plug-and-play" type miner, I have a unfinished 3D printed model.. http://i.imgur.com/pWtPPPC.png The 4 holes in the front are for Ethernet and optional PSU input, the larger rectangular one is for an alarmclock like gui showing the status of the miner...
The PI will be stored down where the Ethernet input is, and it will allow the gui implementation to be easier, The PSU will either be stored in the back, or on top of the blue. Im not really sure yet... Then ill make some holes for fans, THERE WILL BE ALUMINUM MOUNTINGS FOR THE CHIPS TO PREVENT THE PLASTIC FROM MELTING!!!!
Like i said, the 3d model is very very premature and has a lot of work still to be done.
While 3D printing is way cool, it's not really cost-effective except for single items or very small runs. And it would definitely not lower production costs for mining hardware, because chips, PCBs and cabling are the main factors there. For personal fun and experiments, 3D printed miner cases would be nice - think about having a personalized case for a USB miner (mining-wise it would still be almost worthless, but much more fun to show around). If you're looking for a bitcoin-related 3D printing business idea, producing 3D printed items for people who want to pay in BTC might be more feasible, although the demand is probably not high enough at this time.

Im thinking of actually creating a product, and selling it, but its made out of 3D printing materials, and 3rd party chips. Maybe with a built in power unit
