Yeah, been down that rabbit hole myself as well ... so this was another exit scam?
After a decade in crypto and still fell for another one.  Thought this guy was on the level.
Oh well, we move on ... 800K Axe down the drain. 
Goodbye all.

Altcoin, can’t you create a new discord separate from the one he was running?

I believe I made the first real world transaction of AXE when I sold some X11 mining ASICS for AXE.  I made the transaction when AXE was worth 20 something cents.  It was one of the easiest transaction I have ever done.

the number of AXE MN has just surpassed 2000!!!! Now 40% of coins are locked in MN already, that is quite an achievement considering the young age of this project

along with first quorums Grin

Chainlocks and LLMQ will be activated on next update?

Axe core wallet always has 8 connections.  If it gets more, it immediately drops some to go back to 8 connections. 
Is 8 connections a hard coded limit?

Re: Deep Freezer Mineral Oil Submersion Project Insight and Purchasing

Roll Eyes Here we go again for the umpteenth time here....
The cooling will come from what? The freezers cooling loop?
If so FORGET IT! Cooling of any sort involves moving heat from point-A to point-B. To do so requires the cooling loop to be able to move more BTU's to point-B than the heat source (point-A) produces. The cooling loop in a refrigerator/freezer is not designed to move large amounts of heat - they remove relatively SMALL amounts of heat from the contents over a long time which are in a very well insulated casing. It is only because the food is not continuing to generate more heat that the temp goes down over time.

Quick test for you: put a couple hundred watt heater in your freezer and watch just how fast the temp rises...
Just search for immersion cooling to pull up the numerous existing threads on this.

How about if someone got a normal split unit a/c compressor, and instead of using the indoor unit make small condensers in front of each intake fan of an s9 for example?  I had this idea running through my head for a couple of years now.  Put a drain dish on the bottom of each condenser to collect the water.  Maybe it will inject too much humidity in the hash boards?  Any ideas?

I'm mostly referring to the A4 catastrophe.

Not only delivery issues with the A4. If you recall the hashrate they initially announced was nowhere close to the actual one.

Saw that as well.  It is strange. On the other hand though asicminervalue.com still lists ASICminer as a trusted manufacturer.  I guess it all comes down to how much someone is willing to pay to be listed as a reliable manufacturer.

On top of everything else the building they claim is their office is a Regus office space rental, and it's a 6 floor building, out of which only the first 4 are offices/restaurant ... they are supposed to be on the 8th.

Re: 40TH/80TH new Miners??? Swiss Miner

Please explain to me how can i theoretically be affiliated with the swissminer - when i dont advice anyone to buy it? Using your logic i can say that the user opened this thread is affiliated  with swissminer.
When i placed an order there was not limit of 5 miners. Any idea why they wont get your money if you are from USA? - i am very curious.
They also posted a message that they  have  a new miner with 800 TH or something like that.
They are not software engineers from small town - the owners are from small town - the people that created the software are probably from Sofia.

Getting the mining power they claim is not a software issue, it's hardware.  Software is open source, anyone can use it and do what they did, mine from one single pool.  It would violate the open source license, since they make money from that pool, sort of like a dev fee, but it can be done easily.
Right now the best miner in the world can do 48J/TH.  They claim 18J/TH !!!
Unless they have some alien tech this is unreal.  
And if I had such a miner I sure wouldn't sell it for a thousand something bucks.  I would sell it for 20 grand and people would buy it like hotcakes.  
Actually no, I wouldn't even sell it. I would mine for another decade or so until the rest of the planet catches up with my tech and then sell it.

Hey wasn't Technobit based out of Bulgaria? I wonder if any of those veteran scammers snuck out of the woodwork for this one.

Oh yeah, Martin something ... good memory !!!

Maybe i was planning the swissminer scam 5 years ago and was waiting for the right moment - hahaha.
Or maybe i was looking for info about the new miner and found this thread.
I dont know if my previous reply was deleted by moderators but as i said:
I am not advising anyone to buy this miner!!!!!

Any miner that does not give you the option to direct it to any pool of your choice is not a real miner.
If this is real and you actually do get something, it will most likely be cloud mining.
They already said that they have their own mining farm and this thing uses their own "mining pool".
If you do get something open it up and see what asic chips it has.
Most likely though it is a space heater that cloud mines.
You are right, Bulgaria does have some talented programmers but come on, lets get real, a bunch of software engineers like they say from a small town, created something that the armies of asic engineers from Bitmain, Canaan, Innosilicon and the likes couldn't create?  Personally I highly doubt it.
I honestly hope you didn't pay them with BTC. And also bear in mind that the VAT number they supplied is of the lingerie shop and not the so called swiss miner. I didn't find a company registered under the name Swiss Miner in Bulgaria so if you are determined to buy this at least pay the legit lingerie shop via wire transfer only.  Another red flag they sell only in the EU and accept only USD !!! Makes no sense.  The red flags are endless on this one.

Hi all,

My previous account was "limitless386", but I got a ban... Thanks bitcointalk moderators.....
I will now share some more information about why this is a scam, in the hope that this time I will not be banned....
If you look at the video and the photos, you will notice that there is no pool inserted. This miner only works with a vendor-owned pool. I hope this is enough for you and you can make your own conclusions that it is a scam.

P.S. I'm from Bulgaria and I've already researched these scammers.

Maybe your next one should be limitlessPentium Smiley

But yes you're absolutely right. Just like Asicminer. And they even go as far as saying they pay you every 24 hours or a few days depending on the country you live in !!!
Hahahahaha ... amateur hour at its best !!!

Re: 2.5nm transistors produced: Thoughts on them & miners?
by
yianni
on 28/01/2019, 00:01:49 UTC
Actually both E11+ from Ebang and T3 from Innosilicon at 10nm both outperform the Bitmain S15 in efficiency, 48W/TH and 45W/TH.  Bitmain is around 50-58W/TH I believe?
And reading some reviews it is a very unstable and unreliable machine.  
So far only Bitmain and GMO have attempted 7nm tech. GMO was a total failure, as efficiency was close to 16nm. Only Bitmain came close but with a very unreliable chip.
For now I'm still running my S9's.  It's not worth the investment risk yet to upgrade with what is available in the market.
Hopefully they will improve but in these market conditions I seriously doubt it.

As we saw with 7nm chips making them smaller doesn't necessarily mean better efficiency. Right now most 10nm chips are way more efficient than any 7nm out there.  Also with smaller chips you run into issues like overheating, too many propagation errors which end up making them less efficient and slower.
I think with 7nm we are already pushing the limits of silicon chips.

I would be surprised if they don't have an actual address and an office, after all, they do produce and sell something, even if it's lingerie and I tend to believe that part of their business is legit.

As for visiting them, it's a waste of time, if at least there were highways in the region I could have asked a guy I know that lives in Varna with who I did exchange some coins while on holiday at the black sea and kept in touch over the years, but I'm not even going to propose him to drive 8-9 hours for ..what? It's most likely that the "office" is going to be closed or somehow just that exact day the model miner is displayed somewhere else Wink

You are most probably right. I mean anyone with such a miner which outperforms both Inno and Ebit they would be proud to show the chips they used. Other than power consumption and hashing speed, they don't even say how many chips they used, if their chips are 10nm, 7nm ... nothing.
It would have been nice to have such a miner for most of us who have more than 5cents/KWh power cost and I guess that's what they are trying to take advantage of.
