Considering winter is right around the corner, I would place these units strategically in corners of each room. Turn them on when it gets chilly. You can probably set them on a timer too so that your house is nice and cosy when you get back from work.

Also, if you have a newborn at home, they make a very enjoyable background sound that will soothe him/her to sleep.

Heh, This 100%.  Compare costs against modern heaters and noise machines.  If you are good at sales you might consider pushing them as collectibles or home decor pieces. Wink

Good points above on maintenance time to consider.  How long will you have free electric?  That is everyting.

Whew!
As someone who started mining in the first week, I'm sorry to see this.  I was hoping the reasons I moved on were a misread of gut instincts.

That said, I moved on because of various red flags regarding the dev team.  So much of the information needed to really get behind the project was missing, inconsistent or brushed off.  Those points, as they often are in the crypto space, were glossed over and replaced with hype by much of the community.  As someone that has made a professional career of reading people the risk/reward just wasn't there.  

I'm still hoping this project will push through but would suggest those of you blindly disregarding Serena and Mojo take a step back from your time and money invested and give some thought to how and why these actions transpired.  I witnessed a lot of selfless efforts made by both of them first hand.  



I havent seen any flags though I could flag u as human eater by outing u and talking u into a conflict situation, knowing u are not good at making escape from predicaments. I will put up my power to incapacitate u through relentless weakening of ur stamina. I dont know what relation mojo can have to this because mojo is a motion picture box office analyzer.

My apologies, I only know how to read English.

To anyone looking at this post, it's pretty clear that this guy is making new accounts to vouch for himself. Please stay away from this service as it is likely a scam. There's no reason to fall for something like this -- especially when the original poster is trying so hard to make his products look reputable.

Heh, you don't think that seems totally legit? New accounts, same broken English?  Looks like they ship hella fast tho. Tongue

I was def gonna get one until I saw it was 100% legal.  I'm in the market for one that's closer to 95% legal.

@Notin2 - Agree 100%.  I've been waiting for a solid mobile team to come out with something on the blockchain.  On top of the awesome execution thus far, the character artwork is amazing.

Got my custom character on order.   Grin
I can't wait for the alpha release!

OP - Did the team get all of the codes from the first thread?  
It looks like the airdrop includes FB now.  When I submitted it was just Twitter and the old BCT thread.

RX550's are a great bang for your buck.

Of course, you can only fit so many on a board so you likely have to factor the base rig cost if you want to run a lot.  Also, need to factor the cost of the additional space required to run more 550s vs higher hash rate alternatives.

This game looks amazing.  After reading the Medium posts I don't see how it doesn't take over as the most popular crypto/blockchain game.  Congrats!

Re: Post Quality

I agree with you, but it is such a tough thing to manage.  I speak on this as someone who has built forums with 100K+ users and millions of posts.  Incentivized activity is almost required to get new forums off the ground and are tricky to change as they are often motivation for the core base.  

Some short posts will be fluff to pad stats, but others will be legitimate and helpful.

The issue as I see it is users selling accounts and the ease of pulling it off.  Once the accounts have a monetary value the difficulty in moderating quality grows exponentially.  It's too much for any staff and must become a job of everyone in the community.

I like the idea of the merit system, but am concerned that it could just make vested accounts more valuable and further incentivize account sales.  My suggestion would be to make it more difficult to sale and transition an account.  Not foolproof by any means, but more hurdles to change email addresses, SMS verification (with random re-verification) or new IP login challenges could help.  The counter to that is those steps all run the risk of annoying the user base and likely add to the operating costs.  

In spite of the issues, I admire how this community has grown.  Administrative guidance is much more difficult than most realize.

The project is interesting, but the price seems high considering that nothing has been presented and the team is anonymous, where am I doing wrong?

I like the concept of the project a lot, but agree with you on both.  No WP and lack of dev/team info are both potentially red flags.  It's a risk/reward play and a base that trends toward a very high-risk tolerance.

Yep, and as much as 8 GH on the network.  New account, no website and recent MN ANN history makes the risk a bit too steep for my liking.  Not saying it isn't legit, but anyone can fork, make a wallet and post a thread in under a day and ask a huge sum for MNs.  I need to see more effort to buy in.  At least have a website before you post your ANN.

Re: Want to buy GPU rig and keep it in someone's farm. Is that service available?
by
ghavoc
on 19/01/2018, 15:06:58 UTC
Hi, my friend wants to buy a GPU rig (3-4 cards) or share with someone and have more cards (6, 12, ...) and was wondering if there's someone offering not a cloud service but service where you buy parts, let them ship to service provider's address, then they assemble the rig, install all the software, set it to mine with max profitability and keep it in their farm where is cheaper electricity, IT expert nearby, good temperature/humility, secure, enough power, no dust, etc. etc. Googled but didn't really find good solution. Maybe you can help.
In summary, you are looking for someone to build your own mining rig and he'll do all the job, looking for GPU's, setting it up, putting it on rack, etc? What I can't understand is why you don't to place it on your own comfort and why you want others to control your rig. This is risky when you don't know who you are dealing with. On ebay, you can find people who are selling rigs, parts and racks and they'll ship it to your desired address.

Try to check these maybe this will suit your need

Maybe in his country electrical bill can be very expensive and mining is not profitable.
Also there is need technically skills.

right...or space is a limitation or looking for ways to scale since asics and gpus are limited.

I don't know of any services like this at the moment, but I think we'll see some enter the market similar to managed colocation hosting services.  Just like some web hosting data centers offer rented hosting and colocation, I wouldn't be surprised to see some of the cloud mining services to be the first to offer an option like this where you buy a rig from them with a managed farm option (or have it shipped to you).

Re: [ANN] QBIC [QBIC] - Masternodes, PoW, Secure, ASIC Resistance

I guess there are big miners now. Difficulty and networkhash are raising very fast
Example, in 10 minutes, difficulty went from 0.01847143811427009 to 0.08755394049511697

There is no pool setup yet.. how can that be possible ?

its simple - dev use private pool
Definitely looks like it.  Several blocks are being awarded to the same 3 recipients vs 1 recipient in the earlier blocks.

Not a great start.  Lots of left over copy/paste alone is enough red flag for me.
