did you try getting some testnet coins? maybe add that as another thing?

I haven't attempted recently but last winter I could not find a single hashboard at a half decent price Philip. I'm in the UK, do you have a recommendation?

Someone needs to make a system that can plug one of these 1PH models into new or existing heating/radiator systems. That's the future! Offset your electricity bill with bitcoin mining profits

I would like a single hashboard with these new chips, make a DIY radiator and water cool it, electricity prices in UK are not feasible but as a home/space heater using 300-800watts its a great idea, summer now but it will be winter soon!

there are major disruptions to internet and communications across UK and Europe - cyber attacks

my bitaxe supra, about 1 years mining, 0.78T? need 150x more? damn 

a bitaxe with only 3 billion shares too that's awesome

did you ever look into doing a battery powered setup where you charge batteries overnight at a lower rate and use them throughout the day? im looking at this for only 3kw max, and in the UK we have cheaper night rates. couple that with some solar during the day, could work out to be a good way to get low overall electricity rates

of course, it's the username in the rig's webUI!!!

so im just going to use -B and -L for arguments

im attempting to setup ckpool on a vm on a local machine for my gear

i followed this guide:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dAa6PkVN-3o

... pretty simple compared to how i was doing it a couple years ago!

i have just a query regarding syntax for the service which auto starts ckpool on boot...

/etc/systemd/system/ckpool.service:

when using solo mode (-B argument) it requires a < -n name/btcaddress > argument...

so this is what i think it should be:


is the above correct?

should i add a -k in order to ensure it always starts up if the service is restarted or any other additional arguments, either in ckpool or bitcoind?

before i would use bitcoind wallet address for solo mining - should i use a local bitcoind wallet address? or would my ledger wallet address be ok?

/etc/systemd/system/bitcoind.service:

im waiting for initial block download to complete so cant test yet.

in order to make a confirmation on testnet that my setup is working, what should be changed?

it does reset the stats when you change over to eusolo

i see, ok. its much faster ping speeds with eusolo now.

Hope my bitaxe can get a new best share, im at around 1T best share with 700GH/s for 6+ months 

Hmm, i thought ck had it setup to automatically go to the nearest node? I've been using non eu node for half a year!! 120ms difference

at $120 its not far price wise from a bitaxe gamma which can do about 10-12x the mining speed with existing the gamma consuming about 15-20W which is double the beagle consumption of 9W

have you looked into adding the price/weather display functionality onto an existing bitaxe gamma?

its all open source so probably not hard for you to add a nice 'cute snoopy' case with beagle logo on a gamma, with your extra functionality like weather/bitcoin price/humidity/temp and time, workout some improved cooling solution, upgrade power to a usb-c solution, i could see that working out really well

you could look at car thermostats, it opens or closes depending on a set temperature, usually 90c but im sure you could find a 35c one

going to use some firmware? i bet it could be more efficient, 10TH/W here we come!

This is great news, hopefully smaller miners get the next! Looking forward to another bitaxe or usb stick block solve

I dont think 20 minutes would be enough to accurately calculate the miners true avg hashrate, you need 24-48hour+ at a place like antpool

exactly, if the nano had 15W/TH efficiency and cost 20-50% less, I would buy one for every room!

Anyone ever seen someone plum a hydro s19 or similar into the radiator system? Might work? But maybe the radiator water corrodes the heatsink on miner? Or flow on the miner Heatsink is too restrictive?

the reporting of bitcoin for tax also had alot to do with anti-money laundering and criminal investigations into ransomware. easier to catch the criminals if more of the on-ramp/off-ramp is reported and tracked to individuals
