Re: [ANN][ICO] savedroid ICO - CRYPTOCURRENCIES FOR EVERYONE | MAIN SALE 9 FEB 2018
Got 5 codes by SMS this morning... someone trying to change my password and can't get past the 2-factor, or do I need these for minting or something?
Re: [ANN][ICO] savedroid ICO - CRYPTOCURRENCIES FOR EVERYONE | MAIN SALE 9 FEB 2018
They should complete distribution sooner as possible because this will ease the situation. We should expect redistribution of tokens which is imminent as many people will make their entry while some will just leave. After all this small shuffle will have healthy and positive effects. That is the reason I urge for quick distribution to end this all what's going on.
Everyone who has submitted his valid documents in time and is not a creditcard buyer is (from this exact moment in time) minted! If anyone thinks he's missing tokens please contact me directly at https://t.me/tobson2 to clarify the situation.So what is the deal with those of us did buy with a credit card? A little bit annoyed that it wasn't made clear at time of purchase that we would face delays compared to other investors.
Electroneum might have been a tempting option for the attackers because it was designed to let people mine with their phones, which tend to be considerably less powerful than PCs. So someone with half a million computers at their disposal might be able to make considerable returns.
Lol if that is the case, even hackers don't read whitepapers
The mobile application is draining the battery too much and for what, for no actual mining, just the simulation? It's a joke application.
3 hours and my app has only used 2.3% of my battery.
be aware of the android emulator miners devs
i have seen running the miners on bluestacks
i have seen running the miners on bluestacks
Running the miner on bluestack will not yield more hashrate and again it would be a pain to have the system power to be wasted on this work.Slowly the guys would understand this and stop further running on pc.
Just do the maths. At current rates it would need 2000 emulators running just to get ~2k$ monthly.
You have to setup all the emus, register google and etn accs and so on. Even if you would be able to automate this process, your machine wont host anything near to 2k emus.
Oh and right now it doesnt look like the price would rise anytime soon, if ever.
And if they do limit miner connections to 5 per IP address (I believe this was mentioned somewhere), then they would need to set up a tonne of VPNs as well, not worth all that effort.
One problem with the mining (or "airdrop") with a phone is about the minimum coin for trading on exchanges. You may not be able to trade ETN with less then $5-$6 (there is transaction fees to send the coins). So people may have to mine it maybe for 6 months before they can sell it. Also they need an enough powerful smartphone, else they are going to wait a lot more.
But if one ETN gets more valuable, it can be good to mine some in case of a price increase.

Well isn't part of the idea to make ETN a way to transact, rather than sending to an exchange, selling for BTC, then converting to FIAT.
The mobile miner seems to be useless to GPU miners, it doesn't seem to even benchmark the phone, it just gives 15-20h/s to everyone.
Well that's fine, I was worried a lot of people would sell their free mobile-coins to whatever price available, droping the already cheap price even lower. As long as it's not damaging to the whole network, I'm fine with the mobile miner.

There is definitely some cpu validation being done, Top end phones can hit 50H/s, my mid-range SD 820 phone does 20H/s, and my backup SD 801 phone does 6H/s.
It might be as simple as a table for each cpu type and a hash-range to use, but it certainly isn't giving hash out at random.
I've decided to give this mobile miner a go but don't see why Electroneum have released it.
According to the info page on the miner it says..
"Mobile phones are not built to withstand or cope with the complex calculations required to perform actual crypto mining..."
So this means there will never be a 'real' mobile miner for Electroneum, which brings me back to my original question, why did Electronium produce what is, in effect, just an airdrop service.

To get market reach and adoption, non-techy people will be able to use this, try that with a proper PC mining app
Is the mobile mining working now? Can we do earn ETN using mobile? Can someone share the experience with the average hash rate and the model of the phone?
My ZUk Z2 Pro with a Snapdragon 820 cpu gets around 21H/s, and earns about 5 ETN per day running 24/7.
copy of post on old thread:
I just want to understand what drives prices at onset when coins is released on new exchange, especially in cases like this where trading is available before ICO coins were released.

Could somebody please explain to me, or refer me to the relevant reading material, how the price of a coin/token is determined upon launch ? In the case of ETN, there were not ICO investors selling, only miners, so how did it attain the initial price ? Is it also a simple matter of supply and demand where early miners simply set a relative high price and the demand kept it multiples of ICO price up to now ?

Demand. And this is how it is with all coins. They are worth whatever other people are willing to pay for them.
Re: [ANN] [ASIC-RESISTANT] UltraCoin (UTC) - Ultrafast 6 second transactions!!
0.1% per week is too little. 0.2% per week is much better
I think you will find that an annual return of 5.2% is actually pretty good, a savings account with a bank will get you less.
Re: [ANN] [ASIC-RESISTANT] UltraCoin (UTC) - Ultrafast 6 second transactions!!
And I'm out, my piddly little 750tis pulling 15kh just isn't worth it now.
Half my coins are in sell orders, the other half I am holding for POS.
Back to NOBL until someone gets X11 working with Cudaminer.

Re: [ANN] [ASIC-RESISTANT] UltraCoin (UTC) - Ultrafast 6 second transactions!!
How do I verify that I have activated POS correctly?
I typed the relevant stuff in to the console, hit enter, it went green, followed by an empty line, and that's it.
Not sure if it is working or not.
Thanks!

X11 is becoming a very popular solution for miners and has two very decent coins under its belt already, Darkcoin and Hirocoin. Kudos to Evan Duffield the original creator of X11.
The NVidia miners are somewhat left out though as there is no Cuda miner for X11 yet. I would like to offer a bounty of 20,000 Hirocoin for a working Cuda miner for X11. This offer is open for the next month and will be reviewed on the 26th March if no Cuda miners exists at that point. The bounty is currently worth 0.8BTC and the price is rising sharply.
Let me know if this is something that you are able to do and want to compete for the bounty. Miners will be validated on nvidia cards in the order that they are submitted.

Here is a better solution and saves you your 0.8BTC.
Why dont you sell the POS nVidia cards on eBay and get a couple of monster R9 290s? Better speed for gaming, better scrypt mining and better resale value (AMD Graphics cards FLY off the shelves. Try putting on on Craigslist at the right price, you will get tons of messages).
Because:
A) My 750tis mine at 50% hash of my 7950s for 25% of the power.
B) Summer is coming, I'd rather not have my 7950s heating up my apartment.
C) Decentralization, be it individual hash, pool hash, or hardware adoption (remember how AMD prices skyrocketed as a result of mining?) is better than a monopoly.
nVidia has NEVER been faster or better at the same price point compared to AMD, NEVER, neither has Intel, again at the same PRICE POINT. The only thing AMD has continuously failed is the Catalyst drivers which they can never get right.
Radeon R7 265 2GB is the direct competitor to the 750ti You are comparing it to 7950 which is not a very good card for mining plus its 2 years old already. Compare to 280x at least thats 10 months old:
The R7 265 costs $150 gets 445 kh/s and uses 150W
nVidia 750ti also costs $150 gets 300 kh/s and uses 38-60W depending on which model you use
User needs are subjective though. I have only had one Nvidia card in my main rig over the past 14 years, and that was the 8800GT, as it was great value for money at the time.
All my other cards have been AMD/ATI as they offered the best price/performance ratio in my price range. I currently have crossfired 7950s in my main rig.
So whilst AMD are winning the price/performance crown, you are forgetting that that crown isn't the be all and end all.
My cards do a great job mining, but are sitting in the mid-to-high 60s doing so whilst being fairly noisy. Heating my flat with them has been great over the winter, but it just won't be sustainable during the summer.
This is where the 750ti power efficiencies come in to play. Yeah, lower hash means it takes longer to recoup my initial cost, but after that, my earnings are actually better due to the significantly lower power usage. The fact that they are running in the mid-to-low 50s whilst being inaudible of my general livingroom noise levels is a MASSIVE plus too.
If someone is happy to endure a slower ROI for the benefit of lower power usage, noise and heat, then the 750tis are the best choice, and that is why some of us would like support for Nvidia to be extended.
Bitcoin all the while, was it killed by ASIC?
Wasn't this mainly because BTC was, for a good while, the only way to get Scrypt coins in to FIAT?
It in effect had a monopoly on the altcoin to FIAT exchange.
I'm doubting that the same thing will happen to existing Scrypt coins, as people can already exchange Jane/N/X11 for BTC.

so many orphan blocks at nitro2Well given the Nitro1 still has 632Mh vs the 45Mh in Nitro2, that is to be expected until more people transfer over.
