Re: Scrypt ASICs - Likely coming soon or (finger crossed) not?
by

on 28/12/2013, 11:30:54 UTC
Do you seriously prefer all the heat and hassle of GPUs to the nice cute little USB mining dongles?

USB dongles could let scrypt mining spread to the masses without fear that a bunch of password crackers with banks of GPUs will PWN the coins; instead they will have to blow a fraction of the cost of a GPU on a specialised cute little munchkin miner.

What is so awful about that?

GPUs are a pain to deal with. Little USB munchkin miners are way the heck less hassle and heat and space and motherboards and so on.

-MarkM-


Because just like ASICs, they will release new model after new model. Each with higher hash and each out dating the previous model. After a couple cycles of this only the rich will be able to afford the newest model of the scrypt ASIC and making money off coins for someone who doesn't have $10k+ to drop on the newest and fastest scrypt ASIC will be next to impossible. Not to mention huge difficulty spikes. I just hate them.

Coins for the rich.
Scraps for the poor.

That is what ASIC equates to in my mind. Call me crazy, but that is my opinion and that is how I see it.
GPU's are nice because a lot of people are restricted by the wattage and their power bills. This makes it fair game for everyone to have a chance to mine with their GPUs and have a chance to make money.

Re: tAPI-bot - Automated crossover trade platform for BTC-e

Edited thread title to inactive. Other projects have been consuming my time.

That saddens me   Embarrassed

Good luck with your other projects though  Wink

Thank you. I won't say the project is dead, I may revisit when I have the time to test and tune.

That would be great!! I'm currently learning python just so I can tweak this. Thanks for the code Smiley Looks like you put a decent amount of time into this!

A lot of time... I wrote this as a way of writing functional code I was interested in while learning Python basics myself.

A word of warning; most of the code is extremely amateur, and does not follow best practices. Frankly, it's a mess. There are many areas for improvement.

Best of luck! As others have stated, the biggest area of functional improvement is a better source of ticker data.

Thanks for the tip! I'm a first year networking student and have almost no experience with coding. I am basically learning from the ground up. Someone I know who trades 100's of BTC used this bot as a shell for the one that he wrote and he recommended this one to me. I can't even get this to run  Roll Eyes I'll get a hang of it though. I hope you don't mind if I message you every once in a while to ask you a question about it Smiley

Here is a little tip for you: When the troll box tells yous to sell...... don't. When the troll box tells you to buy...... don't. Simple, right? I have been trading on MCXNow for 7 months now and that exchange is ten times better AND safer than any other exchange out there (IMO).

So I guess you have never used Cryptsy then? Ever hear of headless?

Don't spread hate about MCXNow without actually spending time on another exchange. I'm sorry you listened to the troll box... I'm sorry that what goes on there also goes on on every other exchange... I think you should just get out of the game if you can't help but listen to what strangers tell you to do with your money on the internet. You definitely wont make any money that way.

you didnt understand that you loose to whales if you listen to trollbox or dont doesnt matter ... we are talking about marketmanipulation in the orderbook not bullshit spread in the chat ...

Yes and like I said this happens on every single exchange so I have no clue why you are singling out MCXNow. You just seem very inexperienced in the crypto world if you are really *SHOCKED* by this.

He means you can't take the actual mcxFEE off of the site. I have been using MCXnow for 7 months now and have not had one problem. It is buy far the safest site to have your coins. You just have to trust the operator with whatever coins you hold there.. and I do. You can take all your BTC out as you please including the interest you make on the coins.

Guys, I just downloaded the wallet and started solo mining. I hit two blocks relatively quick, but the coins don't show up. Under the overview page it says Number of Transactions: 2, but in the transaction page it shows nothing. Whats going on? I downloaded the wallet from global-coin.net and added the conf from the first page. The wallet synced up perfectly fine, but now this is happening. WTH?

So if we place an order today, they are shipped within 24hrs or when you get them?

Also, the shipping cost. Is it a flat 0.125 per device or is it 0.125 + 0.06 for a single device?

I placed an order this morning and it is ALREADY shipped. This guys is fast!  Grin

Alex you must be one of those brilliant people who hear something and then it is INSTANTLY true in your twisted head. You should at least try to keep some of your dignity and CHANGE THE NAME OF THIS THREAD so you don't lead people on to believe the lies that you are spreading. These threads are starting to really make me laugh, but at the same time I just feel bad for you  Sad

Haha just a suggestion. All you people are big boys and can not take the advice if you don't want to. You people are doing the same thing I'm doing. Acting like you all know the future. You DONT KNOW what will happen with GLD in the future. Neither do I.

10M GLD Buy Order Very Soon
by

on 26/08/2013, 02:52:27 UTC
Guys, I have invested everything I have into GLD. Trust me here, by as many GLD as you possibly can NOW. It can only sit at this price for so long. If you buy and hold for a year or two you will be VERY wealthy. Out goal is to reach $1 per coin and above. Think about the name, "Goldcoin". Appealing, right? We have a ton of support and after every pump the coin sat in place. Didn't just tumble back down. Trust me now or regret it later guys!!

We will be purchasing 10M as a group VERY soon. Get your buy orders in. We want to work as a community and skyrocket the price.
