getblocktemplate is giving coinbasevalue of 250 YTN instead of 50 YTN

searching through your source code.

version 2.0.1: https://github.com/conan-equal-newone/yenten/blob/51f2ea8aad9cbd1e1c7d16ad1d6de73757981625/src/validation.cpp#L1049

version 1.3.1-qtfix2: https://github.com/conan-equal-newone/yenten/blob/8907aaa0c32763728234487de5e9b82c257a6f57/src/main.cpp#L1213

Did you just accidentally hardfork your coin?

Re: [ANN][POOL] ZERGPOOL.com - NEW!Multialgo, autoexchange, 0% fee, 160+ coins

Let's be objective here.

zpool has 2% fee, 180+ coins, running for 2 years
hashrefinery has 1.25% fee, 50+ coins, running for 0.5 year
ahashpool has 1% fee, 70+ coins, running for 0.5 year

Yet, pinpins is new to running a pool, says he is a 1 person team, decides to charge 0% fee, and add 160+ coins.

If you have 160+ coins in zergpool, you better make sure you are in contact with 160+ dev teams and git repos and monitor 160+ coins on a daily basis to prevent chain splits and forks, and handle upgrades in a timely manner.  Don't you think this is too aggressively to the point of recklessness?  And you think a new pool admin is able to handle 160+ coins better than hashrefinery, better than ahash, to the point as good as crackfoo who's been doing it for zpool for 2 years?  I'm just pointing out the numbers.  Maybe pinpins is super human, who knows!

Re: [Awesome Miner]- Powerful Windows GUI to manage and monitor up to 5000 miners

There's an announcement on Ahashpool about them changing the unit for "scrypt" to mBTC/Gh/day (from previously mBTC/Mh/day) to match other pools.
Does Awesome Miner need to update for this to keep the calculations correct?

I think problem is Cryptopia may be on the shorter chain, none of my deposits in the last few hours is showing up at Cryptopia.  Do the devs have direct contact with Cryptopia?

Re: Pandaminer B3+ Review - Why you should never buy a Pandaminer B1 or B3+

This Windows update break driver thing happened to me too.  I talked to their tech support.  Found the solution:
Just go to Device Manager, manually "update drivers" that is placed in the C:\01\01 folder.  Then run the patcher.exe in the same folder.  Then disable all windows update (Google this).  And it'll work.

Also, smOS does work yes (I used the RX image on USB), just that it's not very stable, it reboots every hour or so.  So I'm back to Windows.

Also, if you use the new version of Claymore 9.x, you need to set -dcri 6 to get ~230MH/s, otherwise, it defaults to -dcri 30, and you get only 215  MH/s.

But all in all, I agree with you, it's not a good product.  I bought a few of them, I still have issues at this moment.  Like 1 card is stuck at 8MH/s, and 1 fan is not spinning, and 1 miner only sees 4 out of 8 cards after a week of running fine with 8, probably broken motherboard. 

I'm working with their tech support, so far they've been responsive and running tests, but I don't know how easy it would be to replace the faulty motherboard (in my opinion).

This would be great, I've always wished there's a central monitor to all these different miner with different APIs.

Re: Biostar TB250 - Kaby Lake 6 slot PCIe Mining Motherboard

I have since bought more of this Biostar TB250-BTC board, and paired it with Intel G3930 CPU, and a M.2 64G SSD, DDR4-2400 4G RAM.
I have 10+ rigs of this setup running with 6x RX 470.....stable for weeks.   

It's my favourite setup thus far because of the M.2 slot for SSD, I don't even need to use any SATA data or power cables in the whole rig.

you don't power risers?

for clarity >>> I don't even need to use any SATA data or [[SATA]] power cables in the whole rig.

yes i use powered risers.

The 4 GPU limit appears to be associated with kabylake CPUs.

Skylake should work fine with more GPUs.


I don't think that's true.  I run my TB250-BTC boards with Intel G4560 and G3930 with 6 GPUs, and I believe they are both kabylake CPUs.

Re: ETH Bounty for Gigabyte G1 4GB RX470

(68.3 + ~40 ) = 108.3 W + min. 40w for motherboard = total 148w

No, it cant be 95w from wall, im sorry.
Even a photo wouldn't convince me.

Smiley this is just an example from the few rigs I have running ... no one in the right mind would mine with just two cards. This is my daily pc. Each of my full time rigs are running 6 cards each.

( 68 x 6 ) + 120 riser + 55 system = X
X / 6 = 90 - 95.

My AMP meter has the same value at 2.35 to 2.42a.



Is that AMP meter reading a true r.m.s (Root mean square) current? or time average current?
because time average current can be some 20% lower from the truth...

i heart that user needs to also configure his/her software(operating system&drivers) for using more than 4+ card at windows 10.
is that right ?

Biostar has official instructions for this board specifically: http://www.biostar.com.tw/app/en/support/faq_content.php?S_ID=768

I just spoke to the supplier (located in Hong Kong) in person, he's open to accept orders from overseas.
You may contact him via his facebook page:

I just received the Biostar TB250-BTC board + Intel G4560.   Installed 6 RX470 GPU on it, and it works fine!
It's about 10-15W lower than the Asrock H81 Pro BTC + Intel G1840 I swapped out.

It's about USD 83 here.

I just ordered this Biostar TB250-BTC from my local supplier.  Supplier says it will arrive this Friday.  I'm near China, but not in China.
Hopefully it would work with 6 GPUs.

1 MSI Z97 GAMING 5 ATX Gaming Motherboard <- is a 1150 socket for 4th and 5th gen Intel CPU
1 Intel Core i5 6500 2.7 Ghz 8 MB Skylake LGA 1151 6th Gen Intel Processo <- is a 1151 socket 6th gen Intel CPU

You need to change one of these 2 to make it actually build-able.

Great tool, I've been trying it for a couple days.  If you use Windows as your baseOS, this is way better than other tools I've tried.
