Re: PhoenixMiner 5.6d: fastest Ethereum/Ethash miner with lowest devfee (Win/Linux)
by
brokenchair
on 11/06/2021, 00:24:28 UTC
The new beta version is finally ready. You can download PhoenixMiner 5.7a from here:

PhoenixMiner_5.7a_Windows.zip (GitHub)
PhoenixMiner_5.7a_Linux.tar.gz (GitHub)



The new features in this release are:

  • Added lock core clock
  • The problem with the missing GPU temperatures on Nvidia GPUs is fixed
  • Added native kernels for AMD RX6700 GPUs. These are faster than the generic kernels and produce a lot less stale shares
  • Increase the max supported DAG epoch to 550 (should be enough to about Jan 2023)
  • Full support for setting clocks, fan speeds, voltages, and memory timings of AMD RX6900/6800/6700 cards
  • The specific hashrate is now shown in the form of kilo hashes per joule (kH/J). Example: if a GPU has hashrate of 30 MH/s with 100W power usage, the specific hashrate is 300 kH/J
  • Added new command-line parameters -ttj and -ttmem, allowing automatic fan speed control based on GPU hotspot (junction), and memory temperatures respectively. Example: -ttmem 83 will keep the GPU memory temperature at or bellow 83C by increasing the fan speed as necessary. These parameters can be combined with -tt, as well as with each other. These options are supported only on AMD GPUs that report junction and memory temperatures
  • Added new command-line parameters -tmaxj and -tmaxmem, allowing to decrease the GPU usage when the GPU hotspot (junction), or GPU memory temperatures are above the specified thresholds. These options are supported only on AMD GPUs that report junction and memory temperatures
  • Added support for AMD Windows drivers 21.3.2, and 21.3.1
  • Added support for AMD Linux drivers 20.50.x. Use this drivers only if you have Polaris or older GPUs, or the latest RX6x000 GPUs. WARNING: Vega, Radeon VII, and Navi GPUs won't work with these drivers!
  • Turn off the zero fan feature on AMD cards whenever a fixed fan speed is used (e.g. -tt -40), or when an auto fan with min fan speed is used (e.g. -tt 63 -minfan 35). To disable this feature, add -fanstop 1 command-line parameter
  • When -mcdag 1 is specified under Linux, the miner will not wait for the daggen.sh script to finish before starting to generate the DAGs. Instead it will for a fixed 7 seconds. This allows you to do all the following in the daggen.sh: turn off the overclocking of Nvidia GPUs, sleep for 30-60 seconds to allow time for DAG generation, and then re-apply the overclocking of the Nvidia GPUs
  • Other small improvements and fixes

The support for -ttj, -ttmem, -tmaxj, and -tmaxmem for Nvidia 3090 and 3080 GPUs is not yet ready for release. We hope to have it ready for the final 5.7 release.

For more robust integrity check, you can use our GPG public key, which was verifyed with ETH transaction from our main devfee account as explained here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2647654.msg56755869#msg56755869.

Please let us know if you have any problems or questions related to PhoenixMiner 5.7a.

Re: recovering old wallet?

A guy I work with (I wish it was me lol Cry) bought btc back in early 2013.
- He has an email with an attachment (assuming wallet back up)
- He has an email with the 12 words
- He has an email with a wallet id number

I'm guessing he has to downlaod bitcoin core, and then he can open the attachment, get his btc, and be  Grin

I could be talking out of my ass though, so any thoughts on if this is the way to go about this, or not.

Thanks.

The 12 words should be a seed. Since it has id number and that attachment (maybe named "wallet.json"), it could be a blockchain.info wallet. It is easy to recover using another wallet where you can import your wallet.json file (blockchain.info old backup file).

As a side note, I'd say it is very risky to keep important infos about your Bitcoins on your email. If someone hacks your email, he could easily steal your funds...

Thank you. This is sort of what I was getting at with the bitcore wallet or whatever, as this is the only time I remember opening a file like he has.  I will definitely have him test this next week at work and see if we can do something (couldn't test anything really today for him as work cps are blocked form downloads, i'll have him bring in his laptop.)

To be very honest, the guy sounds a lot like "brokenchair". It's not something that regularly happen that you get to know "a guy's" email with so much detail and still being able to remember it after 4 years. And if I presume, this "guy" we are talking about here is your friend then I must say you are not a very good friend, you introduced your friend as "a guy". As for your problem, I believe the guy need to go keep digging with blockchain.info. 12words always refers to blockchain.info as far as my knowledge.


Lol no it is not me, it is really a guy I work with, and he showed me the emails, as he knows I used be involved and what not (granted I still use it to this day for one of its useful purposes...gambling.)  He actually bought the btc because some pharmacy or something said they accepted it and there was an issue with his card or something.  I'd sure as hell not be ashamed of having over $70k in an old wallet, i'd be happy as hell.  No reason to be spiteful and not help him out because i've made terrible calls with btc, which is something to be ashamed of  Embarrassed

12 words, usually that would be Electrum or blockchain.info since there also is an option for you to receive your 12-word mnemonics on both, the difference is that in blockchain.info you are given a wallet identifier to decrypt your wallet. Have you tried downloading Electrum and see whether you'll come up with anything? Also, try blockchain.info and see whether it will work or not.

He did have an email from blockchain.info (I know it is not electrum), but he cannot get in with the 12 words on the attempts he said he made.  He said he tried recovering the password there with the 12 words but it does not work.
Any ideas as to why the 12 words wouldn't work?  Thank you.

Anyone ever ask for a higher commission from them?
Do you get like a chain referral (ex, I refer person A, who refers person B, I get credit for B?)
It seems like a complete waste of time to me as 0.3% is a joke, only reason I would consider it is for people who live in bumblefuck.

Re: China BTC Exchanges now accepting direct bank deposits! HUGE
by
brokenchair
on 03/11/2015, 21:29:19 UTC
This is a great news and all and I salute this very much! But am I the only one seeing something weird here?

If the Chinese capital controls are the main reason of current run as everyone is reporting today, why would they allow bank deposits directly then and in this way encourage the outflow of capital out of their country?

Nope.

So the instant the Chinese are allowed to buy btc directly again, noone knew about it, yet this exchange was already set up for it?  
While I would like to believe this; I don't.

Re: So, technical analysts, where are you now?

That is because the people on here that claim they are using technical analysis just take charts and draw random lines to match a theory to sound like they know wtf they are doing, or they give such absurd ranges (170-330 price target!) so they can't be wrong.
In theory why would TA apply to btc?  None of the theories were created about btc.  Would you follow a recipe a recipe for brownies while making cookies? 

Some of the people aren't full of shit, but 90 percent of the self proclaimed btc analyst are.
Another idiot! Must be my lucky day.

EVERYTHING WITH A PRICE IS GOVERNED BY SUPPLY & DEMAND!

Capish idiot?

Whatever scammer, please post your trades, not some past dated chart.  I'm not the one making claims to be a btc price guru, that is you. 
Lol! My trades?

50eu invested in NXT as early adopter - at peak worthing 3M usd.

Bought 500btc at 2011, while you were playing Second Life.

Just told you I sold the top 310.

Apart from that, my interpretations may be right or wrong but supply & demand ARE the price - the price IS reflecting Supply & Demand.

Are you so freakin idiot?

LOL where is the proof of your great TA trades?  You told me lol, show proof.  
Buying 500 btc in 2011 doesn't make you a good ta trader either lol.  
Thanks for the proof of your recent ta trades.  
Ask my subscribers...

Listen i'm not trying to argue with you, but if I don't see physical proof of you using your ta to make money, not some thread prediction, not your word, not your subscribers: that is all just smoke and mirrors.  If you want you can post your trade log without gaps and we can see you are legit.  If not than fine, but unless you have proof, its all smoke and mirrors.

Some of the people aren't full of shit, but 90 percent of the self proclaimed btc analyst are.

What you fail to understand is that TA is independent of what market is being analyzed. If there is a market to trade between two assets, there is technical data that can be analyzed to determine real demand and momentum of those assets. Bitcoin is no different in this respect.

I'm not saying I don't believe in ta at all, I just don't agree with that statement, as btc is so radically different than anything these theories and indicators are based on.
Not to mention people on this forum do what all the commodity scammers used to do, and take information that has happened, claim they made the trade, and provide no actually proof that the trade was made (you can't post your bitfinex account, or whatever you have and just black out any identifying information....thought so..... Shocked)

Your welcome to show us proof of continued successful trades you made   Tongue

Again you guys are not buying btc, frauds and liars.  Please answer my question, thanks retards.

Put it simply. There will be no rally if bitcoin doesn't scale to allow more people to participate. XT is pushing in that direction but creates uncertainties in the market. It will take a few months before things settle down and for the final output to emerge clearing the uncertainties.

And if you believed in  bitcoin xt, along with all the other fraudsters, you guys would be buying btc right now, but you are not.  The settling down is happening because there are people pushing for radical changes, without investing a dime to support these changes.

Again, i'm not debating if I think xt is right or wrong, but if I was someone who was pushing for change that I thought would benefit the community, i'd back it with financial support, not nothing.

Dude iam buying and using BTC since years - not weeks like you  Wink

Another irrelevant answer form the xt geniuses.  I also highly doubt you ever purchased more than $5k btc at a time, but you know whatever.

...but i only bought XT Coins, sry!

Lol
You should have said you were spending your btc on false propaganda, fake nodes, troll shill accounts........I answered my own question, that is why you xt fraudsters aren't buying coins, you have to fuck shit up more first  Wink

If xt supporters were not all full of shit, then why has btc not rallied? 
When people believe in a company, idea, currency, commodity, etc, they tend to put their money where their mouth is....
So far since the xt news, we have seen dumping, weaker prices, and a lot of uncertainty. 
XT supporters, man up and start buying lots of btc, since you know, it is so great and will propel bitcoin into the next level.

To be honest I don't really care if the idea is right or wrong, all I know is when you believe in something you act on it, and xt fanboys, are all frauds.

not the price, it is the events surrounding the price that are scary.  Some will say manipulation....no shit, but its seems rather convenient timing considering the xt garbage.

Plus the fed rate stuff today, not sure how relevant but i'm willing to bet a hike will cause a further drop, and that the xt drop isn't over yet on top of it.
