Using an ASIC for something other than mining
by
thebest866
on 23/12/2021, 15:24:16 UTC
Hi, my question might seem ridiculous but I still need to ask this question

Is it possible to use an ASIC miner for searching for data using another programming language like php?

This idea came up due to the speed that an ASIC can perform in comparison with a CPU.

Please advice.

Moonlander 2 mining question
by

Hi Folks.

Is it possible to pause mining every 2 minutes once a block is found by the unit?

I'm currently using the following code:

bfgminer.exe --scrypt -o http://192.168.1.150:3356 -u worker -p anything,d=128  -S MLD:all --set MLD:clock=10
pause

Is that possible?

Re: Official FutureBit Moonlander 2 Driver and Support Thread

Hello Admin, thanks for this little beast, really it's good Smiley

However I have 2 concerns, the first one is that I want to mine in kilo hash instead of MegaHash, I tried multiple clock rate values like 50, 10, and even 1, I noticed that if the configuration file is set to clock=1 the hash rate goes up to 2 Mhash. Is there a way to mine with a slow hash rate, please?

Second question, the unit is making noise while running, even the fan makes my desk vibrate, I can't stand that sound while on my desk and my wife complained about the weird sound and she said, what did you bring to this room to make that sound?

If you have a solution for my first question and if it is possible to lower the hash rate then is it possible to unplug the fan?

I'm trying to save energy and have peace of mind of the annoying sounds coming from the miner.

Please advice.

Thank you

Right I want to save energy and I don't want to get annoyed by the noise, so as you can see, they are 2 problems to me.

Thank you.

So basically I can't do any value under 384, what would happen if I set it to 100? It won't start?

Hi,
I have the new Futurebit Moonlander 2, and I want to know what is the minimum frequency I can use to mine, this unit support up to 5Mh but for testing purposes, i want to mine with K/hash.

Please advice.

hi guys,
I'm having a weird issue, sometimes it would confirm transactions and sometimes it wouldn't, I don't understand the issue here, I saw the guide I followed that but I got other issues however I switched back to my original source code. I'm using Litecoin latest code

check this screenshot and check the timestamp, many blocks were mined and the number is incrementing and those are still in mempool

I need your opinion while creating an altcoin based on Litecoin

    consensus.nPowTargetTimespan = 3 * 60;
    consensus.nPowTargetSpacing = 1.5 * 60;
    ...
    consensus.nRuleChangeActivationThreshold = 2;
    consensus.nMinerConfirmationWindow = 2;

Would you consider this too fast?

How to generate genesis block for Litecoin Alt
by

on 07/11/2021, 20:53:10 UTC
Hi,

Is there anyway to generate genesis block for an altcoin based on Litecoin v 0.18.1 ?

I tried many genesis block generators, but what i'm getting is this error:

Encountering "ReadBlockFromDisk: Errors in block header at CBlockDiskPos(nFile=0, nPos=8)" error when I ran modified litecoin chainparams.cpp

Bitcoin itself started as nothing and it grew with time.





Hi,

Sorry but we're not at the Bitcoin's time anymore, that was back in 2009 and it was the only existing cryptocurrency.
Now with all the coins in existence and all the algorithms all the works which have been made,  a website and explorer for example are basically the minimum required to get serious attention from community and miners.

Not willing to argue, just trying to help you out.

Absolutely not, no worries, I respect your point of view, without listening to others' opinion it would be impossible to progress, I appreciate that.

I mine things I can actually mine.

Also, if this was put together better, had some point to it, a site (maybe), I would consider it

What are you suggestions

generate n
generatetoaddress n address

the diff is strangely high for a "hidden" coin and can't sync past block 614/15 anyway.

nah thanks

That's because someone was mining too fast and the difficulty raised to "difficulty": 12715038.97862892

It will take some time to mine the next block and the sync problem will be resolved, can you start mining?

That someone smells like you ... I mean, the coin was pretty hidden and this is a big jump


Absolutely not, the difficulty was pretty much low. I invite you to mine
