¿why Not Brute-Force the 1 Million BTC Satoshi Nakamoto address ?
It's much easier to find a new block. Brute-forcing random private keys is just a waste of energy.

1 Milliiom BTC = $32 Billion usd.

$32 000 000 000 usd.

you can buy all the Power plants you want.

i know it´s a crazy idea, but i can´t resist asking...

¿why Not Brute-Force the 1 Million BTC Satoshi Nakamoto address ?

they are waiting there...

i know it takes a trillion years with 1x GPU,
but...
a Pool with million workers..

much more interesting, than mining directly on nicehashminer

Reward is 0 until Private Keys are found..
Reward = coins found / workers worked time.

Re: Police Destroy 1,069 Bitcoin Miners With Steamroller In Malaysia

Is there a legitimate motive for outright destroying mining units. Rather than auctioning or selling them. Aside from politics?

People in my country are literally stealing electricity in order to mine cryptocurrencies.
I guess that's why some governments are hostile towards cryptocurrency mining and the mining hardware.
It's better to destroy that mining hardware,instead of selling it to people,that might start stealing electricity again and mine crypto.This is the way of thinking of all the government clerks and officials.
Destroying mining equipment isn't a big deal.I hope that the equipment gets recycled,instead of being sent to the trash and contributing to environment pollution.After all,everybody wants crypto mining to be clean and safe.


if the Gov. confiscate and sell the machines,
IF people that buy the machines steal electricity again,
the Gov. can confiscate and sell again...
and again, and again...

making $10million usd. selling confiscated machines to people that allegdly steal electricity,
with all that money, can buy Covid-19 vaccines, build public schools, build roads, give food to homeless, etc...
sooner or later people will stop stealing electricity, because they cannot afford to buy machines again, and again, and again...

.....
some govs. are brain dead...
for example:
Elephant Ivory Horns from Malaysia, Vietnam, Africa, etc...

the Gov. confiscate and destroy the elephant ivory horns,

people will hunt and kill again...
because the market price and demand has inncreased...

IF the gov. sells very cheap the confiscated ivory horns, lets say $1usd.
they will destroy the market value, and stop the killing of elephants.
No body will kill an Elephant for $1usd. and risk go to jail.

govs. are brain dead... they all steal elections..

¿has anyone considered or tried to hi-jack Avid HDX or older HD PCIe HW ?

similar to LukMiner that allows to mine in some Intel Phy PCIe cards..
https://sites.google.com/site/lukxmrminer/latest-performance
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4470362.0

or AAMiner for Android phones.

but with:   
older HD cards Fixed point,  56-Bit or 48-Bit Not sure.
New HDX floating point 64-Bit.

more:
https://www.soundonsound.com/reviews/avid-hdx
https://www.avid.com/es/products/pro-tools-hdx/specifications



Dual FPGA + 18-DSP must mine something.
problem is that, must be hi-jacked = create a New Firmware, New Drivers, New miner Software...
or maybe its simpler than i think, just create a mining AAX-DSP "audio" plugin?

The blk0001.dat file has no database structure;

the magic network ID is not part of the block. It is used solely as a block delimiter.

1d 01 00 00 (0x0000011d hex, 285 decimal) is the length of the block in bytes.
The block length is not part of the block either.

01 00 00 00 (0x00000001 hex, 1 decimal) is the block format version.
the is No previous block, instead 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00.
So far so good...

Is the root hash in the merkle tree of hashes that organize the transactions in this block.

29 ab 5f 49 (0x495fab29 hex, 1231006505 decimal) is the timestamp
The format of this field is UNIX epoch time. 1231006505 is Sat, 03 Jan 2009 18:15:05 UTC. (No timezone information is encoded; the times are UTC by fiat). The field is interpreted as an unsigned integer (main.h, line 785) which means its maximum value is 4,294,967,295, or approximately 7th February 2106. The protocol must be upgraded before 2106.

Why 2106?
Satoshi Nakamoto was obseced with the number 21.


ff ff 00 1d (0x1d00ffff hex, 486604799 decimal) is a representation of the target, the value which the hash of the block header must not exceed in order to mine the block.

1d ac 2b 7c is a random number generated during the mining process. To mine a block, the header is hashed. If the resulting hash value is not less than or equal to the target, the nonce is incremented and the hash is computed again. This happens billions of times before a small enough hash is found.

To create a true randon number is very difficult.

01 is a variable length integer representing the number of transactions in this block. The length is not infinitely variable; a maximum of 8 bytes are available for an unsigned integer, so the limit is 18,446,744,073,709,551,615. Frankly, that's a lot of transactions for one block.
A block can never have zero transactions; at the very least there will always be one generating the block reward.

01 00 00 00 (0x01 hex, 1 decimal) is the version number of the transaction data format.

01 is the number of transaction inputs. This is another variable length integer, with no practical limit on the number of inputs that can be specified.

00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 would be the hash of the transaction being referenced as an input, but of course this is the block reward transaction, so there is none.

ff ff ff ff is the index of a specific output in the referenced input transaction. As you know, transactions can have many outputs, and subsequent transactions can take none, one or many of those outputs as inputs. A zero here references the first output of the referenced transaction. The value you see here is a representation of -1, a kind of dummy value because there is no input transaction.

4d (decimal 77) is the length of the script that follows. This is another variable length integer, so some very long scripts are supported in theory.

Response script

Here is possibly the most interesting and exciting piece of the whole block -

 04 which tells the interpreter that the next 4 bytes are data to be pushed onto the stack. Those four bytes are ff ff 00 1d, which happen to be the representation of the target that we saw earlier. 01 means the next 1 byte is also to be pushed onto the stack; that next byte is 04. Then, 45 indicates the next 69 bytes are to be pushed onto the stack. As you can see from the ASCII readout, those 69 bytes represent the string "The Times 03/Jan/2009 Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks".

Tips Guide Methods to Store and Recover wallet.dat file..
by
JuanPabloCuervo
on 05/09/2019, 16:37:26 UTC
There is a point, when you want to "Safe Deposit" "Store & Forget",

for those who dont know, wallet.dat is the file where the money PrivateKeys are Stored in Desktop Node Wallets "Full Wallets",

Now there is Backup Phrase, for Mobile Wallets, like Jaxx, Coinomi, etc...
some Portable Mobil Wallets allow to also export Private Keys, other do Not...

Back Up Phase allows to combine & restore many different wallets at same time...
but is Not as Safe / Secure, Fail Proof, as having each individual Private Keys.

Method #1.
Write down Private Keys Manually in Paper.. "Human Error possible"
then Plastic Laminate the Paper, and Store in a safe.

but some papers, some inks, and some glues absorb / dissolve ink... "ink disappears"..

Make lots of tests before deleting the Wallet.dat file.

Method #2.
Use a clever software like Paperbak.
that software converts any small file, "less than 1MB" to something very similar to a very long QR code,

Only Works for Windows, last time i tested did Not work in Wine "Windows core Emulator for Linux & OSX PlayOnMac".

when file is converted with proper settings, DPI PPI resolution can be changed, to fit your Printer,
the Sheets can also be Scanned back, and converted again to the Original Wallet.dat File...


http://ollydbg.de/Paperbak/
http://ollydbg.de/Paperbak/paperbak-1.10.exe.zip
http://ollydbg.de/Paperbak/paperbak-1.10.src.zip
https://github.com/Rupan/paperbak

Basically PaperBack is the predecessor of QR code.

Paperbakc & QR code has Error correction, but still Error can happen if you select settings too small to save space, if you try to fit too much information in a piece of paper....
Remember Bill Gates standing on a Tree of paper and Holding a CD.
https://ssl.c.photoshelter.com/img-get/I0000jtF1ui2j79Q/s/1200/I0000jtF1ui2j79Q.jpg

if you do tests, also Scan and convert to the original file.

Method #3.
Store the file offline and forget...

A) SSD drives and NVMe drives, will loose information,
when turned on they must constantly move the information, "scrub", to refresh, similar to servers ECC Memory.
Most SSD have a 1GB Cache, but is Not used to increase R&W speeds like standard HDDs, its used to scrub / move / refresh the information.

when turned off, time & temperature is the killer, energy stored in the cell eventually will degrade..
if storage temperatures are over 40ºC, will loose information in 1 year or less.
just 1 bit of error is enough to corrupt all data of the file.

also cheap SSD / NVMe have 4 Bits per cell, those have 4x time more probability of a failure,
High Quality SSD / NVMe have 2-Bits per cell, or less.
 
B) in a external Hard Drive 3.5" or 2.5"
Spinning Magnetic disks specially 2.5" are built to last.
Magnetic energy also losses strength with high temperature, but is much more tolerant than SSD / NVMe technology.

3.5" HDDs are mose sensible to falls, Mechanical failure, than 2.5", ive never seen a 2.5" drive fail in my life.. i have 14x
the more capacity, the more probability of a Mechanical failure, try to avoid very large drives over 2TB, 12TB drives are very delicate.
also very large drives produce too much heat, and must be sealed in Helium, to increase Heat Transfer / Dissipation from the plates to the enclosure,
Helium reserves in the Planet earth are getting depleted, will be over in 10 years or less..
if you have a Helium o-ring leak, will be very difficult / expensive to repair in the future.
Nobody sells 100% pure Helium today,
only 80%.

C) CD-R & DVD-R will also loose information in 10 years or less depending the quality of the CD-R / DVD-R Brand, chemicals used.

D) external USB drives with 2TB have 2x 1TB drives in RAID 0, those are more prone to fail, because Raid is Striped, Not Redundant.

E) best bet is a 1x 2.5" USB 3.0 1TB external drive, and also make a copy of the file to another drive from another brand.
like a Manual RAID 1.

F) other method is to buy an icy dock or startech 2x 2.5" drives to a 3.5" enclosure, with RAID...  (35SAT225S3R)
Icy EZConvert Pro MB982SPR-2S R1  

and use RAID 1 Redundant Safe Mode, Not stripped Raid 0, Not Big mode Combined, JBOD mode is also acceptable.

2.5" drives from Seagate M021 with 7200rpm are the best i tested...
WesternDigital are also very good,
Toshiba,
all are very good.  

2x drives must be exactly the same, if Using RAID 1 Redundant "safe" mode.
drives can be different if using JBOD mode.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_RAID_levels#RAID_1

there are 1x 3.5" drive to USB3,0 external enclosure from different manufacturers, Thermaltake, Startech, monoprice, etc...
there is also 2x 3.5" but those usually fail, because 3.5" drives need more than 2Amps at 12v to Spin-Up, and those enclosures have a Chip Circuit that cannot deliver the energy required.

Method #4.
storing the wallet.dat file encrypted..

A) Windows Pro has a built in software to encrypt the whole drive, BitLocker...
ive tested that method, and does Not have error correction 1-Bit error and all information goes to hell.

if you use BitLocker on a RAID 1, will have Error correction, but still there is a risk.

B) ZIP, RAR, 7z,
some allow to increase security creating an error correction code in the encrypted file. IF activated...

problem with password encrypt a file, is that most humans will choose a very difficult password to remember,
and eventually most humans will forget the password.

that happened to me, i had 1 BTC, encrypted in a .rar, and stored offline in a 3.5" HDD drive for many years.
but i forgot the password...
if that happens to you, i recommend using a Brute Force password recovery software like:
http://www.parallelrecovery.com/
there is another Free for Linux called BlackCat or something... but haven´t tested.

yes, i recovered the password eventually, and sold the BTC when price was rising.
Now i believe there are better coins, technologically more advanced, but Not as popular, yet.

Method #5.
Double Encryption.

A) Encrypt the Drive, BitLocker.
and also password Encrypt the File. .ZIP, RAR, 7z

B) Convert to PaperBak, to .jpg .png .bmp (worse--better) Not paper, and .ZIP. RAR .7z the file with Error correction active..
this method will have double Error correction,
the PaperBak, and the Encrypted file *IF Activated,
if file is also stored in RAID 1 enclosure, will have triple, Error correction.
its recommended to format the drive in ExFAT, because its compatible with All Operating Systems...
OSX can Read NTFS but cannot Write NTFS unless you buy a 3rd Party Software.
Windows cannot Read Nor Write HFS+ nor APFS+, without another 3rd party software.

BEWARE:
All those methods are useless, if every body knows you have too much money...
they will kidnap you, and start chopping fingers until you remember the password. LOL Jajajajajaja
That was probably how the Real Satoshi Nakamoto died.

Also PaperBak software requires a strange 2-Bit BMP file format, Most Modern softwares like GiMP do Not export,
you will need the Old Microsoft Paint software to save in that strange .BMP file format.
so PaperBak can detect the files.


if you have other ideas let me know...

This is interesting:

im using OSX HighSierra in a MacPro 5,1 2010 built in 2011 "same as 2012".

@ 3.16GHz. with Supermicro snk-0050AP4 cooler "the biggest 4u cooler for G34 socket, also needs optional G34 adapter", with Dynatron A14 "3U", needs faster fan settings in the Bios.
Temps must be lower than 55°C or the CPU's will Throttle down to 2.8GHz or less.
Tyan s8232 Board. "Needs 6128 CPU if Board needs to update the Bios to detect 63xx CPU."

32-Cores "No HyperThreading" but the miner must have additional options...
Or won't detect properly the amount of Threads and Cores, CPU load will be less.
Those results are at 100% CPU load 32-cores, if Not, settings are wrong.

Good luck. LOL Jajajajajaja

To me looks very dumb, and wants to sell and old laptop in an auction... To win money, even he claims is Not motivated by money... I think he want 1million dollars.for his laptop, i cam see it from here. LOL Jajajajajaja
 
Obious contradicctions.

I think the real SNakamoto died long ago with ALS.

To me this new fake Elvis, that does not have time to convince me, talks about numerology, but to me is another Elvis. LOL Jajajajaja with a good point, move 0.0001 btc if you can
 LOL. Jajajajajaja

To all the people that dont know sh!t about computes will be the true S Nakamoto, something like the other Satoshi Nakamoto that motivated the split of BitcoinCash into BitcoinSV and the other coin...

World if full of Elvis. LOL. Jajajajajajaja

Suprnova seem to be continuing to run old code. If you're mining using the Suprnova pool please shutdown your miners immediately and wait for them to update their code.

yes, SuprNova froze at 55000, with my 100Credits, i cannot withdraw / checkout...

i think is better to Ban all 1.2 Nodes for 1 year, in the Wallet...

#1. All mining software is detected as Virus or Malware by almost all anti-Virus & anti-Malware software,

for example: MinerGate.exe
i only Trust Malwarebytes.

#2. i purchased an i3-8100 to upgrade the Bios of a z370 board, "the i3-8100 stepping B0 is the only CPU compatible with all Boards & all Bios for the z370."
and decided to test it...

temps at 100%, watercooled ~44°C

or Should i Say Hail Hydro- ?
https://dictionary.cambridge.org/us/dictionary/english/hydro
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydra

...if want to OverClock G34, there are G34 compatible Waterblocks,
EK Supreme, discontinued.
Koolance CPU-350, 360, 370 & 380a, But Not 380i, Nor 390, also needs 2x special Koolance G34 screws per CPU.
some HeatKiller IV Basic for AMD

IHS & Mounting is different than sTR4 & SP3 socket Threadripper & Epyc 7000 CPU´s...
Enermax liqtech, XSPC and others... are Only compatible with Newer CPU´s.

so far the best/Biggest IHS for G34, are the aphacool Eisblock "needs external pump, reservoir, etc..." or the alphacool Eisbear AIO "All-In-One."
has 65mm x 65mm.

the Opetron 6000 IHS are 52.5mm x 35mm    "1.5:1"
CPUs are Bigger, but the surface that makes contact with the Cooler is that.

TR4 / SP3 IHS are 69.2mm x 51.9mm    "1.33:1"
https://www.tomshardware.com/news/amd-x399-threadripper-tr4-socket,35101.html

Voltage Regulators VRM must be cooled also, Koolance MVR-40 is an option.

8-8-2018 UPDATE!!!
****************************************


there were 100´s of DOGE coin Pools, i could list.... 99% Does Not Work Today...

Mining DOGE its like Ghost Town...
Like trying to get something AFTER a Nuclear War...

There was a lot of movement in 2014, Now there is None...
https://cryptomining-blog.com/tag/dogecoin-pools/
https://cryptomining-blog.com/378-up-to-date-list-of-doge-crypto-mining-pools/

There are 2 kinds of Pools:
#1. Register.
#2. Anonymous...

Why Register? makes No sense.
i like Anonymous Pools...

of that 1% Working,
50% are Register...

Why Mine DOGE? Because from all the Scrypt Coins i like the most...
MultiDoge Java Portable Wallet is Nice... http://multidoge.org
DOGE has lower Transfer Fees than all other coins... https://bitinfocharts.com/comparison/transactionfees-btc-eth-bch-ltc-doge.html#log
Can be exchanged very easy in ShapeShift.io or Changelly.com
Almost All Multi-Wallets have support for DOGE, Jaxx, Coinomi, etc...
Has very nice games "simulators" for Android.

Why mine? if LiteCoin Miners Merged DOGE?
To Support the Coin i like, Not the coin i dont like. LOL.

Question is Where are all the DOGE Miners ?
https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/dogecoin/
https://dogechain.info/chain/Dogecoin

F2Pool has 24% of the 355TH/s https://www.f2pool.com/coin/dogecoin
other unknown pools have 14% 12% 10% 8% etc...


DOGE was removed from Scrypt Algos in:
http://doge.hashfaster.com
there is No port...

https://www.multipool.us/register/
https://www.multipool.us/dashboard/pool/doge
Merged Scrypt
385GH/s Pool
Needs to Register.


https://prohashing.com
7.8 TH/s Assigned 0


http://sudopool.com
Closed in 2014, but website still works.?

Most pools in this list are DOA:
https://bitmakler.net/mining_Dogecoin-DOGE__pools


http://pool.hebergez-nous.com
https://pool.viabtc.com/?lang=en_US
has Scrypt but No DOGE
