They specifically mention this in their update. And there seems to be a coordinated effort across all platforms by the Wasabi fans to just pump FUD. It’s becoming very cultish.

Maybe you should’ve done your testing before making the post. You make a conclusion in your title that has not yet been tested.

This is specifically mentioned on their website.

There is a coordinated effort across all platforms to shit on the Ashiguru update by Wasabi wallet fans. They are becoming a cult. Very sad to see.

Right on all points cited (and more)

And the recent revelations that even FinCen said beforehand that they weren't a money transmitter is - or at least should be - a big problem for the prosecution.

I think this topic needs a full, dedicated thread. There's quite a few important pieces in this case that aren't in the thread. Like them or not, if this case is successful we're in a bad spot

Buy a luxury watch with the BTC and then sell the watch. A Rolex Day Date (full gold) can be purchased between $15,000-$20,000. Many reputable dealers accept Bitcoin.

You don’t have to explain a piece of jewelry from the 1980s. It’s likely an heirloom and by golly, you didn’t want to sell grandpa’s watch but times are tough.

Anything else is going to be a huge headache. Stay with brands that are easy to sell (Rolex, AP, Patek Philippe). Don’t stray into any other brands.

I know someone that has done this twice in the last couple years. He also has Bitcoin from 9-10 years ago. There’s no reason to enter into KYC. The companies that have your data do not safeguard it. Look at what just happened with Coinbase. And you don’t want to make yourself the target of thugs that WILL kick in your door and torture you. And you don’t even have to be a millionaire either to be targeted.

I spend crypto every time the opportunity presents itself. Many years ago when this site and Bitcoin was a baby, a project called bitcoinstore dot com launched that sold computers and computer parts. I built my pc that year paying in Bitcoin.

Nowadays, I mostly buy gift cards with Bitcoin, which is then used for things in daily life.

When I tip Internet “content creators” I use XMRchat almost exclusively.

And I buy my ASICS and any mining gear with Bitcoin.

But to answer your question, I do spend my crypto and I also treat it like a long term asset. I have a wallet that I don’t spend from and a wallet that I do.

But in order for the ones that want to store a lot of info (I consider it spam), they are asking to use my computer to store their information/spam. Nowhere in any instance in society is there a requirement that others may use or abuse your property or use it for reasons you do not want it used.

I haven’t said much over the years because frankly, so many people understand the technical level more than me. But this move pushes us towards centralization. And that is the death spiral. Pretty soon it will require a data center to run core. At that point every small player is priced out of participating. Any chain that allows this always has a high cost and is centralized. Bitcoin will be no different.

I don’t believe I should have to host spam - at a cost nonetheless- in order to use my permissionless money. And just because you can do something, doesn’t mean you should. I can spray paint my car but I don’t want to. Removing this limit means that I have to buy the spray paint for people that want to vandalize my car. I’ve already made the decision that I don’t want my car spray painted. Vandals can go elsewhere and buy their own paint.

So now we understand why LHR became a thing.

It was the set up to try and move some of their customers into a new product line.

And implementing LHR didn’t slow the down the consumption from miners (as likely intended)

Instead, it was an unnecessary tax on a large chunk of their customers.

Thanks for posting this.

I made this mistake too. And we are not the only ones. I see this same thing all over.


I’ve used ton-pool-server-p3agi.ondigitalocean.app linked to @WhalesPoolBot on telegram and I’ve found that to work perfectly. I haven’t had any connection issues and reporting of hashtags is steady too.

Im now debating doing this. I have 2x RasPi 3's and a 2 here that Im doing nothing with. And I was thinking about trying Burst out anyway. WIll be scouring the web now to figure this out

So Vosk, whats that Antminer doing today? Looks like 1,000 Sia every 24hrs. Am I doing the math right? Because it looks like a big drop in a week as far as daily earnings. Im prob doing the math wrong

Hey man,

I just built an nvidia rig. All 1060s. And one of them died within seconds. So I have a 1070 in its place. The rig runs fine with no issues. Ive also done a really mixed card rig on AMD before with a 290x, a few RX 4/500's, and a Vega 64. That rig had some stability issues. But the mixed card rig on nvidia that I just built hasnt had a problem at all.

Any idea of where youre going to buy the cards?

That is the correct response

You know whats sad??? Is that every exchange is shady...

Remember Cryptsy? What happened? First the withdrawals never completed. Then customer service was out of reach....

Cryptsy staff still tried to address problems in the chat. Its gone. My last two withdrawals from Poloniex never arrived. They show as "Completed: Error"

Want to talk to Poloniex staff? No problem. Just create a Freshdesk account and hope they reply.

The structures and staffing of exchanges has always been poor. And each one should be suspect. Its been 48 hrs and I dont have an answer on my "error" withdrawals

Screen grab of the last test withdrawals failing

Now, last week I had noticed something that was shady. Staff had suggested that every withdrawal is manually processed after you confirm the withdrawal from your email. Isnt that an odd way to handle the sending of BTC? I mean since day one we had (and still have faucets) that make the payments automatically. I had been skeptical of Poloniex so I signed up just to test it out. They failed. I had to troll them for 4 days to get them to approve a withdrawal. Now, that started happening with Cryptsy when they didnt have the money to actually make the withdrawals. Just like when there are runs on banks. Delay the withdrawal any way possible. Now I get errors. For 7 years Ive never had a completed transaction not appear and be listed by an independent source as having an error.

you mean integrated graphics?

Is it an APU?

Oh sure. Not sure why it was failing. It finally worked after a few start ups.

I've found OC'ing my 480's doesnt make much of a difference. I get within 0.5mh/s if Im running it fully OC'ed or if Im running it undervolted and core clock 1100. So far the best option for my 480 (XFX Black Edition-blower cooler-Samsung 8gb VRAM) is the flashing the modded BIOS onto the card. Without that I dont see a good enough bump. I have two 480's that arent flashed yet. I run them at -24mV and 1100 core clock. They run at 65C with the fan at 51% in After Burner and they do the 24mh/s. And the card is only using 75-78w. One of them never budges above 75W (which is great, 460 power draw with 2,5x the hashrate of a 460) These cards seem to do much better with the better memory timings than anything else.

Like @Lauren Smith said that card should still be detected and used fully by the miner. Even my R5 gpu cores in an APU get detected and fully utilized. You really shouldnt need a 470/480 (or newer) to do this. Even 7970's work pretty good and you can find them used for $65-80. However, if youre going to get 570s or 580's Best Buy still has some in stock and B&H are getting their stock in next week.

Have you tried running it with cards only in slot 3 and 4?

Im curious if anyone knows about using the 15.12 with a sytem run by an AMD apu. I have a board running the A6-7400K and it defaults to 17.1 drivers and that seems to be fine for my 480. I can get it to hobble along at 26mh/s. But I also have a 7970 laying around too. Unfortunately on the 17.1 it only gets about 13-14mh/s. Has anyone run the 15.12 drivers with an APU based system?



Disagree. Its easy to learn and easy to NOT know if you come from a gaming background and let package managers install updates automatically.

Just curious, what are you parameters for switching to a different coin? Or do you do it manually based on whatever the stats are? Ive got mine narrowed down to zec and eth but wondering if I should just stick with one for a while. ETH seems to generate the most $ for my rig right now. Id like to add more cards and possibly another board (eventually)
