i would plan on using usb 3.0 for the data bus as it can move the data with less delay and you plan on making it have 8 hashing boards correct? with the amount of data on the bus require one controller per box? as in a box with lets say 12 boards on controller there links to the usb port on the main box with one, is this doable?

bitcoin block size issues
by
gdale
on 10/08/2015, 00:49:55 UTC
Hello bitcoin development people,
   There is a lot of talk about block size for the ongoing network growth. I want to put forth a plan that should work for this issues. Please read this in full before commenting on this.

Current working of the network:
          Now block size is a max of 1 MB per block, and can work with x transactions per sec, but miners can change this setting to a lower value. this is an arbitrarily set number that will not be easy to change or scale with the network as needed.

Working to fix this issues:
           People seem to want a max block size 8 or more times bigger then the current block size, this is sooner then the network need this many transactions volume and will lead to some blocks being bigger then they need to be by have a large block then a few low transactions block on the block chain as block are found like clock work they are randomly found. Given this and the fact miners can change the setting I do not see this work very well.

My fix for the issues:
((((total block size sum of the last 2016 blocks) + (unconfirmed transactions size at the time of last block) / 2016)*1.03)
This will allow the block size to change as needed and reset every difficulty change. Also the setting for bitcoind should be changed to a percentage base value to allow for the variable block size.

I hope this is in the right area of the forums if not please let me know Ty can have a nice day.

do not buy anything from http://bitmaintec.com/BITMAIN-vouchers-receive-more-for-every-purchase.html
look at the URL
this is their real site         https://bitmaintech.com/product.htm

edit due to not wanting people scammed i posted fast.
I'm not saying https://bitmaintech.com is or has issues however http://bitmaintec.com looks to me as if it a scam people please be careful and apply the if its to good to be true then it normally is.

Hello not sure if is where I should post this, but here we go.


What is a good site to rent out my rigs on? I ask because west hash dose not work all that well with my miners. mining rig rentals is okay but is there a more used site for this? any help or tips would be nice.
thank you for viewing this.

can i run 24 volt power into one hashing board of an s5 then run the ground to the 12+ input of the second hashing board  then back to the power supplies ground. will this work?
