Full node, how to reduce traffic to reasonable levels (not minimum)
⭐ Merited by ajochems (1)
Hi, I want to run a full node client again, but reduce network trafic a bit!
Following is the instructions from bitcoin.org :
Now I don't want to reduce traffic to absolute minimum rather something midd wayish.
Can you guys recommend me some settings plase?
Specifically:
Maximum Upload Targets and/or Reduce maximum connections ?
Appreciate any suggestions.
Following is the instructions from bitcoin.org :
Code:
Reduce Traffic
Some node operators need to deal with bandwidth caps imposed by their ISPs.
By default, bitcoin-core allows up to 125 connections to different peers, 8 of which are outbound. You can therefore, have at most 117 inbound connections.
The default settings can result in relatively significant traffic consumption.
Ways to reduce traffic:
Maximum Upload Targets
-maxuploadtarget=
A major component of the traffic is caused by serving historic blocks to other nodes during the initial blocks download phase (syncing up a new node). This option can be specified in MiB per day and is turned off by default. This is not a hard limit; only a threshold to minimize the outbound traffic. When the limit is about to be reached, the uploaded data is cut by no longer serving historic blocks (blocks older than one week). Keep in mind that new nodes require other nodes that are willing to serve historic blocks. The recommended minimum is 144 blocks per day (max. 144MB per day)
Disable listening
-listen=0
Disabling listening will result in fewer nodes connected (remember the maximum of 8 outbound peers). Fewer nodes will result in less traffic usage as you are relaying blocks and transactions to fewer nodes.
Reduce maximum connections
-maxconnections=
Reducing the maximum connected nodes to a minimum could be desirable if traffic limits are tiny. Keep in mind that bitcoins trustless model works best if you are connected to a handful of nodes.
Blocks-only mode

I also have more than one, wish had more.
Got into mining in 2012, but it was more of a joke that the real thing.
Remember making BTCo.1 a day and conidering it just a token/pocket change back then.

As long as bitcoin price increases i will be happy. Role on 1500 dollar btc price roi well on target
And this sums it up, one of the common ignorant and false statements about so called " cloud mining".
I also bet that none of you guys can properly calculate "ROI"
Now try to understand this: for your profitability calculations, I't doesn't matter if the bitcoin price in $ or any othe currency rises fall or stays the same.
I think the best time to buy bitcoin is
when its price is low and when your
selling a bitcoin is when the price is in
the highest peak.

You don't say ??
Don't you guys find it odd that somebody pays $514 for something that can be bought day and night for $440 ?
Why would you do that?
I'm just curious about this little detail, regardless who's the scammer et all.

I receive my money back. (with a 8$ fee) but I receive them back.
If I were them, I would have never refunded you. What service they failed to deliver, tell me that? You were simply too lazy and ignorant to read about mining and your options before you invested. However, the fact they did, only ads to their credibility.
Jeez, where you people are comming from?
For example: If I bought a money printing machine for $500, and later found out that such machine will print a maximum of $300 cash, I surelly be pissed and demand a full refund.
No matter that "geniuses" suggest that I should have learned a "quantum math theory" and calculated this beforehand.
And get this : EVERY reputable business, will refund a customer money, even if such customer clasims to have made a mistake.
The catch word here is "business" , replace that with "scammer" , and you're right, no scammer will refund your money if you're made a mistake
to buy from them.
Hi guys,
I'm a newbie into bitcoin mining, but yesterday I thought that was a good idea to invest into cloud mining.
I bought 1 TH/s from HashFlare for 330$. Today I saw the payment history looking like this :
Entry Time Amount (BTC) Balance (BTC)
SHA-256 payout 31.01.16 00:14 0.0043489 0.0043489
SHA-256 maintenance fee 31.01.16 00:14 0.00262628 0.00172262
After 1 day of mining I receive 0.00172262 Bitcoins. ~ 0.65$ at 376.57$ priced today. In this condition I can recover my money in ~ 507 days . Considering that difficulty is growing fast I can't even recover my money unless BTC/USD will be better. I sent an email to HashFlare to cancel my order and return my money. I hope everything will be ok.
I will announce you how they treat people in this situation.

With your calculations, it will take nearly 17 months to reach ROI on your investment! This without any reinvestment! If you reinvest some of your payments, you will have a faster return!
I think it is a good investment!
I only have 0,91 TH/s and consistently withdraw every 7 days, last week for the first time it took about 6 hours to receive it, yesterday I got it after 1 hour.
No business in the world, would give back money, claiming that you made a mistake.
Actually, pretty any reputable business wil give you money back within one or couple of days.
Why mine?
By far much cheaper way to get some BTC is to simply buy it.
Mining on the cheap is been dead for awhile now, if you have a truly free power you may have a shoot by buying
some older less efficient hardware.
Macbook = forget it, you wouldn't mine a single 0.01BTC in a century!
You wanna Bitcoin, = BUY it.
Cloud mining is not 99% scam, is like 99.999999% scam, remember that.

Anything's possible... likely? No, it will take you millions of years to find a block on average. As for why they sell them to you, it's because it's easy to sell hardware to people who don't know what it is they're buying if the sales pitch is all bullshit.
I bought on Amazon UK, And sales pitch was that I could earn at least 25 bitcoin per month. If that's really not true I will raise an issue with Amazon
I seriously doubt that, bet that it actually said "up to 25 bitcoins per month", which is in theory true.
It's a disappointing result, but not surprising to me. It's always seemed like a minority of the French that are willing to even admit there is an Islam problem in their country, and that the problem will likely mean the destruction of their country and culture.
No. It is not. The FN managed to secure 28% of the vote, and they almost won two of the regions. Such an outcome would have been unimaginable a few years ago. Also, you have to remember that less than 70% of the French population is native. Getting more than 40% of that vote means that the FN is the most popular party right now, among the native French.
Unfortunately that less than 70% now will become fewer and fewer over time, native French are dying breed.
To me it sounded more like NOW or Never, I do pity French.
Re: Best mining equiptment for the money not having to pay for power
If you don't care about power use, nothing, I mean NOTHING beats an used Terraminer.
They're cheap, don't need the PSU, and easy to setup.
The only issue with them is the noise.

I'm just wondering how does the "cloud mining" operator calculates their revenue?
To me it looks like this:
Selling hash rate must be more profitable than simple direct mining, right?
If so then how does the potential "hashrate buyer" can make profit?
You're selling what ammounts to be a certain number of coins well above their market value (othervise you would be losing money).
So how is it?

Looks like selling miners on ebay is a disaster.
Have a buyer that issued a chargeback claim to their credit card for a purchase 60 days ago.
Ebay doesn't know about it.
Paypal knows about it but the buyer only filed a complaint with their credit card so paypal will only accept
whatever the credit card decides to do. They have the credit card info but will not share it with me.
Told me I will probably have to file a police report for theft. Unbelievable.
Buyer has 4 miners AND the cash. Looks like I will be the one to eat it.
I don't know how anyone can do business like this. Blatant fraud goes completely unchecked.

That's scary to hear. Did the buyer have any positive feedback? I honestly have not had a problem selling a bunch of S3's and my S5's on ebay, but the buyers all had good positive feedback.
The buyer was a "Guest User" for one time purchase. Wolfen, told me some of the details before. It's crazy isn't it? PayPal should be the one responsible. They should make sure potential buyers are fully vetted before allowing them to make a purchase over $99 USD from a seller. The entire episode is a crock of shiznit!
I've learned [now] I will NOT complete a sell to anyone with less than 10 feedbacks if what I'm selling is over $100. PERIOD...
I don't care if I get negative feedback! I'm not selling to anyone with less than 10 positive feedbacks as a buyer.
Jeez guys, do you guys realize what you're talking about?
Selling a device designed to make open uncontrollable currency , and at the same time complaining, that there should be more control and oversee?
You guys for real?
