Mine is unlisted, so I'm not going to give it the publicity by naming it.

Re: ZenCash | Horizen - Officially Announces NO ANTI-ASIC FORK - RIP GPU Miners

The pessimist in me says:
ASIC miners are holders, GPU miners are sellers / leasers.
Holders don't sell.
Scarcity increases price.


Large scale GPU miners sell. The people who just mine with their main computers and maybe get an extra GPU or 2 don't have high electric cost forcing them to sell their coinage.

How much storage is needed for multiple wallets?

I'm sure there are people here with mining rigs that double as their multi wallet staking machine or just a machine to hold all their wallets period. How much HDD or SSD storage is really needed for this. Is it possible to just run the OS and the wallet GUI on the boot SSD and than designate the blockchain to store on a secondary high capacity HDD?

Only if ZEC forks to something ASIC and FPGA resistent, combined with a new market bull run and a good 4x gain in ZEC value to the BTC.

Re: ASIC mining reasons Destroying future value of ZCash (ZEC) ?

ASIC Mining Destroying future value ZCash - ZCash (ZEC) has made a big announcement, and miners are not impressed at all. They have announced that Bitmain has released ASIC miners that can be used to mine ZCash. In various forums, miners seem to take up arms against this. The most cited reason is that, this will concentrate mining power in some big companies. With such a move, ZCash can end up like bitcoin where the mining power is concentrated in the hands of several mining companies. The only difference is that bitcoins already have very high volumes, making it more difficult for any entity to manipulate the price. For low cap crypto like ZCash, price manipulation will be very easy with centralized mining.

It is going to be a very tedius process to procure them in masses since it is one order per person assuming Bitmain honors this. This results in a prospecting mining farm operator to know a lot of people to order these through, along with snatching them up on Ebay for more than market value for the miners.

ETC should out perform ETH.  With ETH planning a POS hard fork, and Bitmain backing ETC, the inv case for ETC is going up exponentially.  Immutability matters, ETH is a bailout forked shitcoin, people will realize sooner or later.

I have always thought of ETH being a premined scam vaporware, something like 72Million Ethereum were PREMINED to small circle.  How disgusting is that? But yeah, I hold ETC for the lulz.
$LTC moon too

Where does it say that Bitmain is backing ETC? And if ever what you say is true, is that even supposed to be important or noteworthy? Almost everyone hates bitmain and whether you are man enough to admit it or not.

You are entitled to your delusional opinions but in no way is LTC better than ETH. Haha.

Think of it like how Bitmain backs Bcash. Their ASIC's use ASICboost which is incapable of mining segwit transactions and misses out on segwit transaction fees in the rewards so this makes Bitmain ASIC's advantageous to run on Bcash, and go figure BitMain is pulling moves to displace BTC core.

It would make sense for BitMain to now favor ETC to overtake ETH due to mining.

Re: [ANN] [1080 | 1080TI] ETHlargement - The Hashrate Hardener

I'm a bit confused with this. So this isn't a miner in its self but just something you run in the background while mining to enable hashrate improvement alongside any ETH miner of choice?

There is a lack of writing on this so I'm just a bit lost on that.

quote from Eliovp @ cryptomining-blog
"Some more info about this tool.

So what this does is, it accesses the memory block and modifies RRD & FAW values (timings)

It’s exactly the same changes i’ve done on the P104 & P102 about 6 months ago but this time through direct injection (nicely done though..).

Don’t get your hopes up to much as it won’t work on any other nvidia card.
The only ones it will work on is those with G5X memory.
Oh and the P104/102 won’t work either as they’ve been modified already, vbios wise.

Still a nice job!"

Is this permanent and does it effect the GPU on video rendering or anything else? I do have GDDR5x GPU's.

Is this a permanent effect on the card that may effect it on gaming or video rendering?

Very good.

750h/s equishash is still better than 50mhs ethereum tho.
I wonder if this would also work for other algos.

Based on the TDP from that person running 49 MH/s, I would only be pulling 600 Sol/s at the same TDP. This ETH miner is actually the most energy efficient solution available for the 1080 ti right now.

Re: Ever considered using a miner as a home heater?

Simple answer is electric heaters don't do anything special to make extra heat, it's just the normal heat output from wattage expenditure.
