Re: bitmine CoinCraft Series Users Thread - Troubleshooting, Efficiency, O/C
pull the sdcard out n update FW via desktop/laptop. could be an old image. try that then you may magically get "extra menus"
When I look at the Update Firmware setting page, it says the current version is 201406101155.
Looks like a later version than Bitmine offer for download...
Re: bitmine CoinCraft Series Users Thread - Troubleshooting, Efficiency, O/C
I've just received two Coincraft Desks, both with 8 modules.
I've just been looking to see what can be done to overclock these, but two things are holding me back so far:
1. The temperature gauge on the LCD panels of both units reads 0.0C. Obviously wrong... any idea why for both of these units there would be no temperature data being displayed?
2. There is no option to change the power mode. On the mining page is just says: "Device speed is factory calibrated to the best possible setting.".
Any suggestions folks?
Thanks.

you mean rigs and not desk right ?
I ordered desks... but handles on front, couple of little brackets in the box. Look more like I would expect rigs to look.
I'm being unintentionally dense. They've physically got 4 modules each, so ergo are Desks not Rigs.
Its just because as I was typing, the dashboards were up in front of me, which report 8 modules, even though it appears that physically there are 4 cards in each.

Re: Bitmine list of orders - Februar 2014 delivery (batch #2)
I just posted this in the official thread, and as my order was a February batch #2 order, thought anyone following this thread might be interested too.
Quote
I originally placed an order last November for a February delivery.
After cancelling the order, and finally being given the offer of an October refund, compensated hashing, or hosted hashing, I decided to negotiate on the amount of hashing I'd receive in compensation.
I'm happy to say that within 10 days of concluding those negotiations, my Coincraft Desk units have arrived from Bitmine.ch, and are now up and working (after a little bit of maintenance caused by one of the Pi controller boards coming loose).
Its doubtful that I'll ever manage to quite breakeven now (unless the exchange rate goes silly), but the risk of waiting to see whether I'd see any sign of the refund was too great.
I've learnt my lesson though... next time I'll hire an engineer to do the ASIC design and build the units myself!
I'm just glad to be able to draw my particular case to a close.
Hope the rest of you in limbo manage to sort things out one way or another.

I registered in 22 July so 14 days have passed, I have 19 posts. Shouldn't activity go to 19?
How are the 14 day period contabilized? Since you register then in increments of 14, 14 ,14 ,14.. etc?
or since the last post you posted 14 posts within this 14 day period? this is too complicated

Makes using these forums a real PITA. Posting restrictions, search restrictions, et al really annoy me, and put me off from contributing more.
I'd like to second having Bitmine.ch added to the scam list.
I placed my order in November 2013 for February delivery.
I cancelled the order in April 2014 and requested a refund due to non-delivery.
I was told in June that due to the large number of refunds requested, they could not make them all in a timely fashion as their bank only allowed a certain number of transactions per month (a likely story... not).
I am still waiting for a refund which I doubt I shall see without legal action.

Look, the point is, its a bit like blaming a home owner when there house is left unlocked and subsequently burgled. Just because they made it easier through some inaction, at the end of the day it is the perpetrator of the crime who is the real villain.
When you take other people's money in trust, you have a fiduciary duty to protect it. Incompetence is a breach of that duty. Outright fraud is an even more unconscionable malfeasance. Karpeles and Gox (if they even are separate) utterly failed to carry out the duty they'd agreed to by accepting deposits.
Is it not the case that Bitcoin exchanges are unregulated? As such, isn't it the case that their fiduciary duty extends to doing what they see fit to keep customers assets secure?
Perhaps what we need is some regulation, or at the very least, a code of practice that exchanges are prepared to sign up to that will ensure that exchanges are not able to let such a situation arise again.
or are you delusional "it's not Karpeles fault" how old are you kid?
Okay, so Karpeles is an idiot, but he didn't force people to give them their bitcoin / fiat. But you're going after the wrong man. Don't get hung up on vengeance against the gun dealer, go after the man that pulled the trigger. This is not the same as what he did. What he did is to allow people to use his service and deposit Bitcoin and fiat while knowing that he did not have all his customer's funds (despite publicly saying that he did all the way until the end).
Now, I live in the UK, and in law here the accused has the presumption of innocence until proved otherwise.
Karpeles undoubtedly knew that MtGox was in trouble due to the malleability exploit, but it may have taken some time before they got to the bottom of it and realised exactly how big a problem it was. They may have been working on the premise that they would have sufficient reserves in fiat to bail themselves out.
The fact is, we just don't know. If Karpeles continued to trade whilst knowingly insolvent, then yes, he is guilty of that, and I am sure that he will have to face the courts to deal with that.
But, I maintain the real villain here is whoever defrauded MtGox in the first place.

Older than you apparently. Others will judge whether wiser or not.

I came late to the MtGox party and fortunately did not lose a lot and my heartfelt feeling go out to those that did, This news is not good, so now my passport, my bank details and my home address is now in the hands of hackers and they are trying to sell that info. I'm fucking furious. Karpeles needs to pay for this big time. post the hackers email address, this need to go to Interpol.
It is not Karpeles fault that a criminal is trying to sell your data. The perpetrators of crime are the criminals, and in this case MtGox & its customers are the victims. In fact, if someone hadn't been defrauding them via the malleability exploit, we wouldn't be in this situation.
So, how about we start actually blaming this fiasco on the perpetrators rather than the victims.
I won't post the link to the source or his email address, but apparently nanashi___ is selling the Mt. Gox user database:
