Re: i want to give 100 BTC to one user on bitcointalk. tell me why it is U.

I would create a documentary about Bitcoin and digital money/cryptocurrency.  There are documentaries about Bitcoin already, but it does not hurt to have more.  In fact it helps a ton to see more interest in Bitcoin.  

The majority of the money would be spent traveling to various places.  Most likely staying in the States.  I would start in North Carolina though.  If you check the Bitcoin ATM maps there are none here, but there is a car place up the road that accepts Bitcoin for cars!  I would likely start there and then move my way up north towards  New York, and south to Florida.  Then I would travel to the midwest, and then the west coast.  It would be interesting to see the infrastructure in place now, and how it could be growing in the near future.  Also wouldn't hurt to see what is cooking in DC with Bitcoin and crypto currency, if anything.

My take on the documentary would be unique in that it is me with a camera and a mic interviewing people from my perspective.  I really enjoy the documentary film style.  I also enjoy listening to what people have to say.  

I went to school for film and video production.  I am currently jobless, but do odd jobs for work.  I already have the equipment to shoot a nice documentary, but things like travel, hotel, food, advertising would be needed for the film.  I know I could get into at least some local film festivals and grow from there.  The best thing is to open many eyes and minds to Bitcoin and crypto currency.  I know there are still major hurdles to overcome for Bitcoin to be perfect, but it already looks better than almost anything out there, as far as money goes.

Thanks for reading!

It just keeps adding these lines all the time and just gets bigger and bigger, I have to keep deleting it every now and then as it just grows so fast.

>>> CheckStakeKernelHash - hashProofOfStake too much
>>> CheckStakeKernelHash: nTimeWeight = 137076
>>> CheckStakeKernelHash: passed GetKernelStakeModifier
>>> bnCoinDayWeight = 26, bnTargetPerCoinDay=110427836236357352041769395878404723568785424659630784333489133269811200

Edit: I found a workaround by adding this line to the banksycoin.conf file
printtoconsole=1

That basically stops it from writing the log file out in the first place. Just hope there isn't an side effects from doing that though.



Interesting.  I know nothing about what the effects could be.

I think it is a tactic to get cheap coins, and the coins never actually left the possession of the miner/seller.  That is just a guess though.
Perhaps.

Can you do something for me and check your debug.log in the same folder that your wallet.dat and conf file are in, as mine was getting very large and I was asking people to check theirs.
Mine got to over 20gigabytes in size and I only found out when I had message boxes when I got up this morning, telling me my drive had ran out of space.


Mine is less than 10 MB.  I saw that happen with the Cinnicoin debug file on my mac.  Never figured it out.  Running Banksycoin in Windows 7 currently.  

Edit:  Have you started staking?  I haven't staked any coins yet.  My coins aren't quite mature enough.

Ok.

Who sold 100 000 bsy coins at 2 satoshi each?

Crazy, now folks who will want to buy this coin will think any price more than that is too expensive.

100 000 banksy takes ages to mine and the amount of power etc you use, and the amount of coins in a block would mean that selling them at 2 satoshi is just crazy.

Why do people try and sell at lower and lower prices...??

People were buying at a certain price, but then people set up sells that are almost half that. Crazy!

Think about how much energy you use up to mine, the amount of coins in a block.. WHen you see them for such little amounts, you are not gonna get the money back for the energy you are paying for, mining it in the first place and you are just letting whales with lots of money, just hoover them up for basically, nothing.

Take me for example, it tells me in the pool that I will get around 1500 bsy coins a day at my current hashrate, which is 715 Kh/s. So if people are just selling them at 2 satoshi each, I might as well just mine a coin that gets 1000s of coins in a block as might have more chance of getting a profit, even though my GPU burns electricity like crazy.

Sorry, just having a rant! lol


I saw this and wondered the same question.  There are only a few things I can fathom.  Someone accidentally a button.  Someone feels the need to share some love.  Someone wants the coin to be devalued right off the bat and doesn't give a flip about chump change.  Also, this person could be selling to themselves to reduce risk, and they actually do care about maintaining some value.  May actually be a tactic to get miners to dump really cheap coins into your wallet.  Lemmings jumping off a cliff comes to mind.

Those are the three options off the top of my head.  Its weird, but not really a bad thing.  As long as supporters keep coming, things are good.  Most coins never see 1 satoshi, or maybe it is the other way around.  It will be interesting to see what happens.  

There are over a hundred million Banksycoins currently.  I assume 95 million still unallocated from the premine for giveaways.  The first 5 million already allocated for the first giveaway.  It will take years before there are 200 million coins though.  There are only thousands created each day for the life of the coin.  It is rare enough to scratch your head when 100k goes for 2 satoshi.  That is for sure.  We likely will not see that happen again with this coin.  Wink

EDIT: Also, if you are mining scrypt with GPU, you are missing out on profits you could be making if you mined another algorithm that uses less energy, makes you more BTC per day, and adds more buy support for Banksycoin.  In other words you can likely make more Banksycoin mining a GPU friendly algorithm and buying Banksycoin on exchanges.  I know exchanges just started for Banksycoin, and prices will be wild for a bit, but you can help stabilize it with buy support.

Wow, this coin is solid. Most coins do not launch with a block explorer, and it is built in!  Everything functioning like it should, and mining is FAST.  This is the fastest I have ever seen coins move.   Grin

I've previously had my A2's mining at Nicehash with no problems other than a slightly lower reported hashrate on the pool end. Didn't have any issues with switchovers though.

Where are your A2's from, maybe the firmware needs upgrading?



I have had no issue as well, when I mined it a few weeks ago.  Now it switches so often that the hash rate is reduced dramatically.  Nothing wrong with the machine.  I think it is just not acting well with nice hash because they require specific fixes in the mining software to operate correctly.  I see where I can download an image of the software needed for the miner, but I don't see where there are updated versions that have the fixes nice hash needs.

I am having an issue with A2 innosilicon on nice hash.  I assume this is because the mining software on the machine doesn't work well with nice hash.  I can't figure out how to change this.  If there is a way, I am game to try it.  Anyone using the A2s on NiceHash that have fixed the issue of idle, or constant failover when it switches, thus lower hash rate and payouts?

Just Do Einteinium X13,PoS and ANon wallet and it will bring to another level

Honestly this is too true. Also making sure the max coins are way less than expected to get that extra price boost. So yeah to do what every other coin is doing, reduce total coins, add master nodes for some kind of dark send, add proof of stake through that or end proof of work and go only on proof of stake. Too late to change the proof of work. Might as well end it. This is all kind of laughable that a solid coin needs to transform to the new fad to stay in the game. It's hard to predict what will happen in the future, but it is quickly appearing coins may be more modular than I first thought. The ability to add on or change features is the essence of all this madness.

Anyone curious about set up for the A2 Innosilicon can reference my initial thoughts here www.MinerStuff.com I had a few hurdles getting it going, but they were pretty simple. I know it can be difficult to set up new equipment when it doesn't come with a manual. I will be fleshing out a more in depth guide soon. Also, GAWminers stands by their word! My A2 Innosilicon miner came today and I am thrilled to have it before a holiday weekend.

GAW made good on their promise and delivered a day early. My hosted A2 is hashing now. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK JOSH AND COMPANY.

Time to get scrypt busting.

When did you place the order? I know I ordered the A2 for delivery listed as expected available on the 20th, but it has not changed from "awaiting fulfillment." I placed order early morning 19th. I understand if there is high volume and I'm further down the line, but over delivering for some and under delivering for others when .3 bitcoins a day is on the line seems slightly unfair. It could already be in the mail but the site has not updated that information. I know I talked to support and they said 1 to 2 days from now, but knowing that someone has their order fulfilled on the 20th when expected fulfillment is the 21st makes me feel slightly cheated. Also wish there was an overnight delivery option, haha.

Hey Guys, we had a few fraud A2 orders we had to sort though. So the shipped ones will go out tomorrow. I have ordered them to be priority (1-3 day) instead of ground to make it up Smiley

Awesome! Great to get a nice response. You guys appear to be doing a great job considering the increase in interest/volume/craziness in general. Thank you again.

Funny, seems like hash-master and hashra are down right now too.

They aren't associated though?

Interesting coincidence? Or is it? They are all selling Zeus-associated miners and maybe they are all now adjusting their dates...
Date adjustment does not require a website to go offline. They all use the same CMS. It could be a hosted CMS.

This.  More than likely it is just coincidence.  

None of them ansering phones or replying to emails either....

Website is back up though.

EDIT: Also, I was able to get through to phone support. They are experiencing high volume and obviously funny website stuff.

So I'm considering buying the A2 80MHs.. on the product description it says:


Expected release date is 20th May 2014


So, that's today. Is this released or what? I want to buy a hosted machine but I want it online today, not tomorrow or in a week. Any insight?
GAW already has these A2 boxes in hand. I purchased one on the 16th, when they first popped up on the site. I'm still waiting for it to go live. It should happen today, I hope. Fingers crossed, the GAW guys will take good care of you.

I just need this confirmed by GAW so I can join in with ya! Smiley
I know for a fact they have the boxes in hand. But I can't confirm the "go live" or "ship" date. GAW hasn't missed a release date yet. They'll hit it.

That's lovely and all but I need that from GAWs mouth..

They comment on a transformer picture posted but not on a business question asked by a customer?  Roll Eyes Huh It's the little things.

Website says 21st now... And that is on both the hosted and non hosted item...

I have donated the $1500 (Einsteinium Epoch award) + $200 (Fundraiser to date) to Mend Therapeutics directly since they did not meet their experiment goal.






Wow! That is amazing!  Cheesy
