Re: Hello from Nepal.

Hello fellow bitcoiners,

I am from Nepal and see a huge market for Bitcoin here. Paypal isn't even supported yet in our country. Bitcoin could make online transactions a lot better here.
And I have seen that its use is slowly rising in my country too. With companies like harilo.com accepting Bitcoin in Nepal.
See here: http://harilo.com/2012/12/13/harilo-now-accepting-payments-in-bitcoins

I have heard about this bitcoin long ago and made a wallet too. And I love how its open and run by people.
But I haven't used it myself yet.
I have a webhosting company coming up, and I will be offering my services for Bitcoins as an option.
I will try my best to help out from my side to make this the best form of payment option.

And good luck to you guys too.
Glad to be part of this forum to discuss with you guys,
See you around!

Welcome to the forums and awesome about the webhosting accepting bitcoin. Please also consider other alts such as LTC, etc.

Making a thread so that I can get my forum status upgraded.  I joined the forums specifically to get in to the group buy that unfortunately closed before I could get my account status to be able to post Sad

Good luck on getting upgraded, make sure and use escrow with all group buys!

Re: Is CPU Mining Completely Phased Out?

there are only 2 coins that you can cpu mine for (some) profit: primecoin and quarkcoin. as long as they don't offer gpu mining

That is correct and the good news is coders are having slight difficulty making GPU miners for these coins so CPU should be good for a long time still

I'm doing some hacking with the cgminer 2.9.6 source (there are still people who CPU mine for the novelty of it), and I was wondering if it would be more efficient (i.e. shorter time to a share) to use all available resources to focus on one share or give each resource a seperate share.

Matthew:out

If you are going to CPU mine for novelty, you may as well CPU mine for actual money (quark, primecoin, etc.)

Re: I propose as name for the smallest bitcoin unit: mic (micro cent)
by
matupoiv
on 27/07/2013, 20:48:37 UTC
The common names are:
10-2: cent
10-3: milli
10-6: micro
10-9: nano

The smallest bitcoin is 10-8

So we do 10-6 * 10-2
= micro * cent
= mic

I currently have 0.00875801 bitcoins, so 875,801 mics!

I am almost a mic millionaire!

and 1 mic million = 1 cent (0.01000000)

I second this idea! I will start using mic units around the forum to try to get it to catch on Cheesy. Good idea.

How popular are prime coins and would what would you do with them besides exchange them for btc?

Or you can hold onto them and hope their value increases; then trade them.

Why am I unable to do anything on this forum? I'm trying to contact an admin.

Why would you want to contact staff? They will only get irritated. Read the newbie readme and check the meta section of the forum. You should be able to figure out everything from there. Also, it would not hurt to read the terms you agree to in the future.

Re: Any such thing as an easily installed and used mining software?
by
matupoiv
on 27/07/2013, 20:42:19 UTC
I've been a member for several months now and I can no longer contain my frustration with mining software.  I've been using BitMinter (thanks Dr!) most of the time and GUIminer when BitMinter is down (BTCGuild or Slush's Pool).

But now I have a handful of USB Erupters and am waiting for orders of ASICs from BFL, KNC and BitFury.  And GUIminer seems useless with ASICs so far.  I've now just wasted several hours of my life attempting to install BFGminer and have failed miserably.  In the past I've had failures with CGminer and others.

Seriously, what decade is this that we can't simply click an .exe file and have a completely functioning miner within minutes?!  I'm not a coder and never wanted to be one but I'm no technoob either.  Compiling, binaries, DLLs, blah, blah, blah.  Why is this so bleeping difficult?

I've been reading there forums virtually every day, hoping someone would post a fool-proof step-by-step on miner installation.  Or better yet, wishing someone would take pity on me an invent something simple.

Help me please!

Many pieces of mining software are not installed, but are instead contained in a zip file. They can be finnicky at times and may requires some adjusting to get optimal results. Check the mining area for more info Smiley

Don't know where else to put this, and I've never used this site before. However, I am looking to buy btc at the market price, I have $170.00 on a moneypak that I'd like to buy them with! If anyone can do this or help, let me know, thanks!

If you do not know where else to put this, then I would recommend you put it in one of the marketplace subforums.

I mine for 1) aswell.


Personally, it is mostly just 1. Maybe two, but that is kind of shaky and is just a positive side effect.

Posting for the first time. First time using a forum. Have a asic in the mail, however also considering putting some old PCs to use with CPUs (regardless of obsolescence...) Find this forum and cryptocurrencies quite a wounderfull endevour.

Thank's to Satoshi for starting this.

Re: I have launched a new bitcoin pool server called bitcoinOre.com. Some questions
by
matupoiv
on 27/07/2013, 20:33:51 UTC
Hey guys,

I have started putting together a new bitcoin mining pool server.


I have been mining at BTCguild.com for a long time, however, it seems more and more these days that Bitcoin Mining is becoming centralized around btc guild. The whole philosophy behind bitcoins was to prevent such entity from existing.  So in the spirit of Bitcoins, I decided to start up my own pool.


Two things right off the back:

  • The site is stil a work in progress, as far as content and features go, but the basic functionality is there.
  • The pool fee will be 0%, until after our first block, then it will go to 1.5%

I was hoping that a few of us to find alternatives, and I am here to present my.

I have a few questions;

  • How would I get my server listed on the GUI Miner server select menu?
  • What are some features you guys would like to see on the site?
  • I currently distribute using PPLNS, but some sites do PPS. Does anyone know what is preferred these days?
  • What would prevent you from using an alternative site like bitcoinore.com, instead of btcguild.com?

Besides those questions, I would also welcome any questions or suggestions.

1) I would contact the developer
2) Really up to you
3) I prefer PPLNS personally
4) The only thing that might drive me me away would be that btcguild is much more well known but after you pool gets some rep I might go to it

Hope that helps Smiley

Re: Has anyone tried this

Have you tried running 3 or more 7950s on a motherboard for mining without using any powered risers?

What would happen if the power drawn from the mobo is too much? Would the mobo just fry or would the PC just shutdown unexpectedly?

I ask this because, since a few days i am having a problem where my rig/pc, just freezes.

The cpu fan, gpu fans, mobo LEDs etc all keep running. And my kill-a-watt shows a sharp fall in the wattage (which means the mining has stopped on all cards)
and on the monitor is "check signal cable" error. Oh and my keyboard's Num lock key doesn't turn On and Off as it should.

My rig config ::

Mobo = Gigabyte 990 FXA UD3
RAM = 1 x 8 GB G.skill 1866Mhz
HDD = 2 TB WD Green and 1 x 250GB Samsung 840 SSD
GPU = 3 x Msi Twin Frozr iii 7950s
CPU = 8 core AMD FX 8350 Vishera
OS = Windows 7
PSU = SeaSonic 1050W Gold Rated

Once I tried three unpowered and one of them did not turn on. Then I made one of them be powered and the whole thing worked.

You need to use escrow or something because right now it looks kind of shady, no offense. If you used escrow then maybe some people would take you up on your offer. In any case, you should post this in marketplace when you get the chance.
