I've ordered a board from mineority and paid for it but I never got a receipt back. I've tried to contact them to confirm that they received the order but it's been a week without an answer. Do they respond to support tickets?


The coinpayments confirmation is your receipt; if you successfully paid with coinpayments, then yes, we have received your order. Once your device is shipping, we'll be sending you out an email.

We do respond to support stickets, but all of us have been away from keyboard working on a NEW SEKRET PROJECT - so, we're a little behind schedule. For your ticket, I see that we have replied.

Companies do not spin up $20M worth of product on extremely limited supply chains on letters of credit.
That statement is patently false. Letters of credit were, are, and will be written for various sums, both lower and higher. It is a mainstay of many industries, not just produce importers.

I had to front it, and I can’t front it through August with no concept of demand numbers. This was not a profit taking venture, I’m trying very hard to make sure these cards make it into the community without price gouging that was about to happen. With out that effort, they would have continued to produce small batches and introduced heavy lead times and price increases. I took the risk off them, everyone here benefits. Simple as that.
I don't have an inside knowledge of your venture so I can't make any definitive statements.

What I will comment about is one fact: you may think that you can freely mix true and false statements and they will average to "reasonable". No they average to "are you on drugs?" or "what film set did you came from?" or "did you forgot to take your medications?".

This vacillation between heady optimism and dark paranoia in a single person is not only off-putting. It is the reason to raise suspicion among both crypto-currency people and traditional finance people.


I'd just like to pipe up for a moment.

The hardware industry is very, very different to other industries. It's upfront, capital intensive, and companies like NVIDIA, AMD, Intel, Xilinx and TSMC don't take 'letters of credit', which may as well be a credit card with chargebacks.

The hardware industry doesn't like risk.

Putting my two cents in here, for what it's worth.

I poke around the corners and keep an eye on people who make big claims in this space. I don't always have the time to speak up, but I'll speak up here for David, and David alone.

David is the President and co-founder of Squirrels LLC. He's the gentlemen responsible for eip-969. He built a supercomputer for verifying prime numbers. He's responsible for a lot of big drivers in education like AirParrot and Reflector and a handful of other applications. He is actively working to make technology a part of everyday life in unique and interesting ways.

I can confirm he has a deal with Xilinix. I can confirm he's got the hardware. I can confirm he's got everything he says he has. If he doesn't deliver, I'll hunt him to the ends of the earth. No plane, train, or automobile will keep him safe.  Wink

So, for what it's worth, yeah. He's good people(s), securitizones.

I've read through the thread (though I admit not every bit of it) and I'm very surprised to see nobody has been concerned about whether this executable does any funky things like ever connect to the Internet at any point, read any files off disk, etc? Has anyone monitored it (long enough) for any of those things?

Looks nice, but all of a sudden someone anonymous just deciding to help everyone by providing a closed source executable should normally raise just a healthy dose of suspicion.
Multiple users have confirmed the process is accessing two IPs (2.21.242.213/2.21.242.237) over encrypted connection. Not sure why this is necessary.



Neither do I. The security concerns raised in this thread of using a seemingly random, closed-source binary which calls back to Akamai servers over an encrypted channel are legitimate. Until an explanation is provided by the developers for the usage of these two IPs, you can temporarily block your system(s) from reaching them by using the following:

Windows (as Administrator):
Code:
netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name="ETHlargement Callback" interface=any dir=out action=block remoteip=2.21.242.213
netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name="ETHlargement Callback" interface=any dir=out action=block remoteip=2.21.242.237

Linux (as root):
Code:
iptables -A OUTPUT -d 2.21.242.213 -j DROP
iptables -A OUTPUT -d 2.21.242.237 -j DROP

As far as I can tell, it has zero impact on the efficacy of the application nor the final hash rate.

This will be useless if in code dev is using fdqn as target address, but anyway what kind of concerns might be with traffic? Yes, probably it is good to know what dev sending back to their servers, but I personally don’t care, as I have nothing saved on rigs, execpt OS and miners.

Cool, we have servers. Who knew? If you find their location, let me know, my spare one just slipped under the couch cushions.

If you want to know what those are accessing, go ask Microsoft. We didn't create watadminsvc.exe or svchost.exe. Or use the Linux version.

Well... Figured I might as well try this out on my 8 x 1080 rack...

Had to use sudo /root/utils/OhGodAnETHlargementPill --revA 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7 to get it to run in SMOS...

Went from a whooping 22MHs+ to 24MHs+ on each card... That's on 5 Nvidia 1080 FE's and 3 EVGA 1080FTW's

So it does work but not enough in my opinion to move my 1080's from RVN....

Now show us the private 1060 version!!!!




Something is going wrong.

You should be hashing @ 30+ MH/s on a 1080.

Yes, yes, Elio. You’re a big, strong man. Well done on all your achievements and stuff.

After our other launch on the 25th of May (probably a few weeks after), we will have a public release for all cards -  VEGA, GTX and RX included - that everyone can use. It will have a devfee attached to it, if the community agrees,  as it makes more sense and I cannot manage the 200+ clients we already have. We’ll update with new models as it comes out.

I’m fucking off to Oxford, Cambridge for two weeks for a research project, so Bird, AI, Cat or Dog will manage this thread for me.

Would like to know the community thoughts about a devfee tool.

Mmm, those personal attacks... You worried that i'm going to throw some sensitive info out there?  Don't be.

And btw, I saluted the tool, said it was nicely done.

I also even don't care that you're using base stuff to do this that i've figured out (mainly the RRD/FAW change) months ago.

The only difference is, if i for example do something based on someone else his work, i would mention that person, period.

Anyhow, congrats on the upcoming tool! UMR  Wink.

Cheers and good luck!

Didn't you like just say in an interview that it's not for the money?

I just found something pretty interesting online.
After all, it seems that memory timing mods are possible with NVIDIA, too.

Everything is possible when you start poking hardware. Just a matter of time and emotional control.

Debian/Ubuntu with 4.15 kernels, 390.48 drivers and cuda 9.1.

This isn't working on all 1080ti vendors, did testing on some rigs and can report not to work: Asus Turbo, PNY XLR8. So this tool is rather limited for large mixed rigs, but thanks anyway.

Otherwise, with "right" cards it works on any baremetal mining platform, up to 11*1080ti/rig, largest i've got here.
It does NOT work on paravirtualized systems on KVM and VT-d pci-e passthrough with mining guests, but these setups are very rare among conventional miners. Tried paravilrtualized Windoze also with same result.

Any chance of getting it to work with everything 1080ti?  Smiley

As I stated, you MUST provide me with the VBIOS, so I can see wtf model you have. I can't just go off stuff like 'This is a 1080Ti it doesn't work!' Because for all I know, you are mining on a toaster and you just think it's a 1080Ti because there's a postit with jam stains and a wonky NVIDIA logo drawn in crayon.

VBIOS; and please create an issue on GitHub so it's better sorted, if possible.

Haha, jam stains give extra MH/s though. I uploaded the vbios for the Titan XP over there.

In your interview on youtube a couple days ago you mentioned a paid version of this tool for older GeForceGPUs. If you can make Kepler cards able to sh7t coins you might need to change your username to OhGodAGod. Maxwell would be cool too.

OhGodAGod is sadly already taken. But I'm just a girl, nothing more.

OhGodAGirl, can you confirm if there is a "private" version of this tool that does more tuning and gives a higher hashrate?

also, did any of you BIOS timing tuning experts work out how to do nVidia BIOS mods and use their firmware signing page to allow the custom BIOS to work? https://gfs.nvidia.com/

Purely curious. Thanks

OhGodADump has existed since I was allowed to publicly release it. You can find it on my personal Git repo. It allows you to do VBIOS modifications, with a little bit of brainpower.

Enjoy!

On the fence about this.  I liked the original post format, was entertaining, but am a little gun shy of actually downloading.  If this is true and a lot of people are it would definitely be worth the dev fee.

Sure, it would, but sometimes people do stuff just to be nice. SGMiner-GM was released with our optimized Ethereum kernel, and we didn't slap a devfee in that.

Not everyone in the world is out to fuck you over.
