Howdy Friends, I've searched around the internet for a while now and realized that I have some somewhat cool things that don't seem to have any real info online past a couple of articles: https://videocardz.net/amd-bc-250-mining-card https://www.techspot.com/news/93980-14800-asrock-mining-rig-powered-12-playstation-5.html I have on hand 120 of these AMD BC-250 Mining Cards as part of 10x AsRock mining rigs that were purchased ~18 months ago. Currently I run Ubuntu Linux 20.02 LTS w/Awesome miner installed on each card via a Sandisk 32GB usb. Mining wise they are on a profit switching setup through our custom AwesomeMiner config. As everyone can see, they draw roughly 80-100w depending on temperature mostly with the stock clocks. on ETC they run around the 48-51MH/s mark, though through minor tuning I have been able to hold around 55-57Mh/s without any noticeable temperature or power increase. Here are the readouts of the cards from my controller: Core clock: 1145Mhz Memory clock: 450Mhz Core(s) 12/24 8GB Memory More pictures: https://photos.google.com/u/1/share/AF1QipMVlxImOsVOb18QG45vbgjZ1nplOY7Jv0DH2hZwIHgHoVaxOOLREKvvEHFPv-BMAQ?key=Y1NOaWYyMXptRGJVN2ZwdWVQeVE5Ny1STXE1Z0Rn (will update with significantly better photos soon) I know its not a ton of info on the cards, I'm just being lazy and not entirely sure what Is and isn't worth posting about them. I'm happy to field questions/give more photos as people wish.

there is old asic miners profitable for me more than new ones but I am somewhat worried about malfunctions and problems and the difficulty of managing old devices and their lifespan, so advise me where to go. like Antminer S19j Pro+ 122TH vs Antminer S21 Hyd 355TH

Summary Nearly 5 years after the founder of QuadrigaCX the Vancouver-based cryptocurrency exchange Gerald Cotten faked his death in late 2018. There is finally light at the end of the tunnel. Just earlier today, millerthomson the law firm that took on the role of dealing with this shit show, updated on their website, providing effected users with some good news: People are getting at least 13% back!!! After a long 5 years, tho most of the cash is still missing, the people involved have moved on to work on bigger and better crypto scams, Gerald Cotten's fake body still not dug up, no one even talks about the inactive bitcoins that's in QuadrigaCX wallet suddenly started to move earlier this year, and what the effected users get back likely will not cover the physiological trauma of the whole ordeal. I truly hope people can find solace in the fact that justice will come in the end, and crime does not pay 100%. faking your death in a crypto-ponzi will net you less than 87% profit. Quotes Who's happy with this result? Who still wanna see Gerald Cotten's body exhumed to settle the final piece of the mystery? Sources My source is that I made it the F@#& up!! Acutal Souces: https://www.millerthomson.com/en/quadrigacx/ https://finance.yahoo.com/news/bankrupt-crypto-exchange-quadrigacx-start-131709226.html?guccounter=1&guce_referrer=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ29vZ2xlLmNvbS8&guce_referrer_sig=AQAAANzQlnlHqFxcojWYAmaxjXVgRsEPSX-ETYaRL3JdW9vcKi5xAb1q4aAzwY7DNN0J8kuzfvqAoY1XPz8s6urM_3k9i6liCSo2JTEn7GV9nVTYkfjcDkRIxTpj4Q-viD17WigICKbRNrSOMeo9L4JJ_0VaHEr-zaGYhMqySUM_83MD https://www.coindesk.com/policy/2023/05/09/bankrupt-crypto-exchange-quadrigacx-will-start-interim-distribution-for-some-user-ey-says/

"I will preface this post by saying that I have just lost my whole dogechain.info wallet balance, so naturally I have scoured the web and Reddit for answers. Searching for 'hacked,' 'stolen,' or the like will bring up posts with the exact same thing happening. Random unauthorised transactions with no notification that they had occurred. Some of these transactions have actually been made to the same wallet. This is a serious issue which everyone needs to be made more aware of. Everyone has different preferences on who to buy from/which wallet to use etc, and some people call each other stupid for using dogechain.info, for example. If we could have some proper talks about this topic it would be brilliant. It's been a horrible experience for those affected." - above is a Reddit post which was just deleted by r/dogecoin mods. FYI: it's Rap Escape. I know.

Some of you may already be aware of the issue with the VRAM Temperatures on the RTX 3080 and 3090 GPUs (Especially the FEs). HWINFO64 now shows the GPU Memory Junction temp. While gaming, the temperature of the VRAM on these cards loves to hover around 90c-103c! According to Nvidia, this is within spec and "should be fine". Like almost everyone else and their dog, I have also been following the current crypto craze and began mining with my 3080 while not gaming to experiment and earn a bit of side cash. However, these high VRAM temps seem to be exacerbated when performing any VRAM intensive tasks (e.g. Rendering or Mining). I have observed temps of 106-108c while maintaining a MH/s of 99 and 75% PL on 80% Fan Speed. If the fans are turned down lower, the VRAM will redline at 110c and throttling begins. I engaged an Nvidia Customer Service rep via their live chat and asked if this behavior was normal and if operating these cards at this kind of temperature for 24/7 workloads would cause excessive harm (obviously using your GPU will shorten it's lifespan, but there's a difference between getting 3 years out of a card and getting 3 months). The customer service rep said that as long as the core clock temp was below 70, the card was working as expected the VRAM is within spec to go up to 110c. If it were to fail under these conditions within three years of purchase, it would qualify for an RMA. Now, weather or not Nvidia Customer Service is qualified to make statements like that, I'm not sure. Would any of you see an issue with allowing GDDR6x to sit at around 104-108c for 24/7. You would assume that operating your GPU underneath the throttle point would be fine, but it's hard to tell how hot these chips are actually supposed to get. Whats the community's take on this issue?2

I've searched for this answer between and I couldn't get an answer, but I was wondering if I could mine with a GTX 3070 on a Dell Alienware X51 R2 Andromeda Intel Desktop Motherboard s1150 PGRP5. Would the mother board bottle neck the GTX 3070 or would it run like normal.

I'm one of the lucky few who got a RTX3080 for MSRP. Several friends advised me to resell my card immediately for a huge profit (>500$...), which I'm not going to do because I'm actually gaiming on it and the jump in gaming experience from my GTX1070 is very noticable. I also got the advice of running cryptomining on my GPU when not in use, I did some math and the GPU might be able to repay itself in about 90 days doing so, with about 8$/day of profit at current prices (!!!) I'm not doing this either because I personally dislike cryptos and the e-waste/hardware shortage/CO2 emission/gambling they cause and I don't want to be a part of it. It's been months, and the GPU price/availability seems to be actually getting worse, so I got curious... What was your experience with the current generation of GPU?

Let me start off by saying: this post *and hopefully subsequent replies from people that know what they're doing* is meant for the people that decided to try mining (or are about to) and don't know where to start research-wise. If anyone has any suggestions on how I should purge my system after hearing my tale, please leave some feedback below. Thanks! Before you even consider reading the rest of this post if you're halfway serious about beginning your journey into mining, create a system restore point now. This will be an invaluable step to giving you peace of mind later. You'll also avoid my mistake. Story time, it's a long one. I once saw a video from a certain Media Group that promoted being able to mine using a piece of software called NiceHash. I'd always wanted to get into mining crypto, I just built a sweet new personal gaming PC with modern parts, and since I had just opened up a coinbase account, I figured I had a place to put those coins and now was a good time (for the old dogs that just cringed reading that, this journey of a thread will hurt) I wanted to get this thing up as quickly as possible, so the NiceHashQuickMiner was the best way to go. Followed the link in the video description, created an account, watched a setup video, and away I went. AntiVirus? Nah, we'll shut it up and download it anyway, people are saying we're good. Let the auto-overclock do it's thing and ran the miner in the background when I slept, turned it off during my work/stream hours and kept that up for a few days. This went on for about 4 days. I was curious what the payout was like and decided to do a little digging. Turns out, even with my 3070, I was scheduled to only make about $7/week. That sounded WAY lower than what my skyrocketed expectations and youtube hype-men's words had flowered, so I decided to dig deeper. I found a few videos talking about some beef between NiceHash and some other mining software and scoffed at it at the time, thinking "lol, guess it's a crazy world out there. Some people must really just want profits." I know, I hate me too. Turns out, yes, you can get paid more mining on your own (in my case, about 5x). You see, you aren't mining in the traditional sense. Instead of trying to mine for a block the old fashioned way, you're essentially renting your PCs hardware out to NiceHash. They behave as a brokerage service so that people with cryptocurrency will pay them with said currency to use YOUR computer (and everyone else's that is using that application) to mine crypto for the top buyer, and you're getting a service fee from that transaction. If I've learned one thing about brokerages from playing the stock market since the beginning of quarantine, it's that the only people that truly profit off of these transactions are everyone but the workers. So I decided I wanted to leave NiceHash behind for now. I wouldn't get rid of it entirely, especially since I still had unpaid funds left sitting in the account that hadn't yet reached the payout balance. Instead, I'd start looking into how I could quickly and easily get some mining software to start up to mine Ethereum Classic, the little brother to the new darling of the crypto mining world. I did a quick google search and, wouldn't you know it, all of the suggestions started pouring in. Sites in Russian, domains that end in .xxx, maybe a blog post or two from some random news places I had NEVER heard of in my life, you name it. I decided I wanted to go the easy route, something that just had a GUI and a "Mine" button that would magically do all the tinkering for me, and found out that there is a mining application built right into the Microsoft Store on Windows! What luck, Microsoft approved a mining app, this has to be safe and secure, it even has a discord. No virus popup either! You might notice I'm not dropping the name, yea, that's because after I installed it, it didn't work. I put the settings in I needed to, pointed to a pool address (just googled what that was 5 minutes beforehand, but at least I made sure to choose the ssl protocol), gave it my address and hit go. Not a thing. I joined the discord for help and, as I later figured out, this application was made back in 2017, never updated, and the discord was a ghost town with no mods answering any questions and messages still coming in, but DAYS in between them. I decided this may be a bit too sketch for my taste and that I should do a little more research, maybe taking the year into account. Uninstalled, ran a virus scan. After that bust, I decided to try downloading a couple flavours of miners just to test the waters. After looking into some other sketchy blog-like websites that touted "THE BEST ETH AND ETC MINERS OF 2021", I decided to try BFGminer and ETHminer. I learned my lesson (kinda) about making sure the source was the right one. BFGminer's website looked kinda sketch, but after seeing SEVERAL (as in 5) reddit/blog posts saying the site and miner was legit, I gave it a download, extracted it (while AV was disabled, re-enabled after extraction) and started looking at the files. ETHminer, I found the official github page (thank god) and got the version that worked with my hardware, but saved extracting it for it BFG didn't work out. I didn't know what I need to click to make anything run, I tried going through the readme, didn't see anything immediately helpful, so I just clicked on the exe. Nothing happened. Didn't even see and command prompt window open. Took a few looks at it and said "okay, no GUI is opening, not liking this. Let's move to the other one." Tried running it in admin mode *note: DON'T DO THIS* Thought I might've accidentally opened an instance running in the background and then realized "oh crap, it might be running but I didn't run it right so I can't see it. Might as well full shutdown to clear it out, then try to configure it." All the while, Kaspersky was freaking out saying "hey, this isn't a virus since you said you wanted it, but criminals use this thing. You know that, right?" I was getting frustrated not knowing what to do with these files I just downloaded and executed on my computer, so I said screw it. I decided I wanted to use nanopool, and it turns out they have a miner that they have ready to mine on the pool, just put your address, rig name and email in and you're good to start! Got it from their official github page, filled in the blanks, click run and... AV blocks the execution of it. No problem, just run it in admin mode. After that, no problems popping up. It's running over SSL so no MITM crap or redirects, I'm not running the card very hard, only hitting about 60C and making sure it stayed within power limit and figured out I could make upwards of $5 a day! Decided to switch over to ETH at this point just to see what the hubbub is about and, hey, if it's gonna grow, I was fine with the mining rate the card was giving me. Then I met the dev fee. I had no idea what this was or why Nanopool was double dipping with a pool AND a dev fee, so I looked it up and found out "yea, Nanominer has a stupid high dev fee and it's fairly limiting. Just use Claymore or Phoenix miner instead, it has better performance and lower dev fees." Sold, this has become a for-profit in my spare time thing anyway, might as well optimize it. I didn't do any other research other than google the name "claymore miner," went to their website, found out their website sketched me out, found their github repo, and clicked download. I didn't want to waste any more time with configuring crap, so after I extracted it, I didn't even run the exe, just looked at the setup files. It seemed much more complicated than it was worth to set up, so I threw it in the recycling bin. Next one. Went to look at Phoenix miner and saw people praising it, saw setup guides on nanopool and other pools for it (oh yea, finally looked at pool options and found out ethmine might be a better choice), and all the posts were much more recent. This definitely felt like the right choice. Copped the miner from the official github page without much thought, plugged the commands into the batch file, and as soon as I tuned down nanominer, I started up Phoenix. I had been running Phoenix for a few days by that point and had gotten rid of all traces of other miners EXCEPT for Nicehash, the windows store one (honestly didn't remember it was there till later), nanominer and phoenix. Only ran phoenix for a couple days after. this all culminates to around 2-3 days ago when I finally did my own due diligence. I asked myself "so, phoenix seems to be popular, but I saw an article saying something about viruses and compromising versions of it? What's going on? Then I found Nicehash's statement. Big bold letters. "STOP using Phoenix miner immediately!" Oh poopy. I click on the article, read through it, and absolutely panic, as one does at a FUD article over a subject they know little about. But, while I'm reading through this article, I find responses to this with youtube videos, which I watch, that link to the bitcoin talk forum that has the official statements, releases, and whole thread from Phoenix Miner themselves. They denounce any wrongdoing whatsoever, I breathe a quick sigh of relief, riiiiiight before reading what their campaign against NiceHash entails. This is where I finally learn about the correspondence, the individuals previously associated with NiceHash , the practices occuring, all of it. As I am sitting there, absorbing both sides of the argument alongside words of wisdom from the OG miners while scrubbing through the thread, a sense of dread and a sudden realization washes over me. What the kibledy-bips did I do to my machine over the past 2 weeks. I downloaded not 1, not 2, but seven mining applications, the majority of which were unsigned, required me to disable my antivirus, and had to be run with heightened privileges to execute properly. I even uploaded the executables to a virus scanning site to cross-reference with all known databases, had half of them come back with "this is bad" and still went "well, that's life." None of that set any alarms off and I kept going until I found out that the best miners that were recommended were at each other's throats about how the other is too shady to be trusted. Not only this, I put all of this crap on my personal machine. Not a dedicated mining rig, not a throwaway laptop, not a secondhand PC with no data on it. My baby. I got sick. I continued doing research on mining applications and realized claymore, one of the apps I download, was caught in an exit scam and stole all their user's gains. I read stories about how people that used miners, even the legitimate copies, were getting hacked and had ransomware, remote desktop access, random user privilege assignments and credit card details stolen (although many of them also either downloaded some other shady program, or didn't get an official version of the mining software). All I knew at that point was that I was in over my head in an area I wanted to leave. I downloaded malwarebytes, started monitoring processes and services, uninstalled any application I hadn't used in the past month, went through the event logs to see if I was already compromised, and continuously scanned, quarantined, and deleted/shredded everything I could possibly think of that was tied to the miner on the machine. I checked the hash of every miner that I questioned whether it was official and whether or not it could be trusted (everything came back as the official SHA256 that I could find). While looking even deeper into the FUD stories of people that got hacked, I decided it was in my best interest to check my other devices such as my router to see if ports had been forwarded, slam my computer AND phone into VPN only mode for all apps, reset all of my access passwords for my machines and enable 2FA on all of the things, until I finally decided to take about 5 seconds and think about all the crap I was reading. The people that got hacked with mining software also had other shady downloads that they executed. A swathe of other people had suggested these miners, and all of them had a respectable amount of download or at least some semblance of safety tied to them that the damage could be undone. Even PhoenixMiner on their thread had stated "Why would we want to destroy a source of income for us. We can't get you to fully trust us, but maybe you'll believe we aren't idiots." Maybe I wasn't completely SoL. I looked more into it and, as expected, the scams that had happened in the past had already happened. I didn't find any logs that didn't already occur previously on the system or processes/services that weren't normal. New weird new apps installed, no strange behaviour. The only issues that could crop up were based on what I already had on there with binaries I had no idea about. Problem was, I already ran this code, and I couldn't just go back in tiiiiiiiiiiii-RESTORE POINT. Okay, not a fool-proof solution if you feel you've been hacked or have a virus, but at least a start. Go back to a restore point before you clicked the executable and ran the binaries and messed with the registry in ways YOU can't fix. I looked and, sadly, the furthest back my restore point was had been made after I had downloaded nanominer, meaning the BFGminer and ETHminer incidents would still have occurred. But, at least claymore and the current pressing issue, phoenixminer, would be wiped. I pulled the trigger on that and, as the computer restarted, flashed the bios for good measure. Sure, it overwrote my OC settings, but I can always set those again. It would be absolute mania trying to get another graphics card. As I write this, dear reader, I am running another few scans of MBAM and Kaspersky, uninstalling all the programs over again to ensure nothing foul remains, and plan on soft-resetting windows to leave my files but put a fresh coat over this install, where I will once again flash the bios after it's completion for good measure. Is it helping me sleep better tonight? NO. And this is the part where I leave the people looking to mine with guidelines and ask questions for the people that might be able to help me: 1. System restore. Do it if you haven't, do it again if you have. 2. bitcoin talk forum is THE place to go for mining any altcoin. They have a credit system that tells you how new someone is so you know who to avoid if they make a post about a miner, and the discussions there will point you in the right direction. 3. DON'T RUN IN ADMIN MODE. 4. Know that it will never be 100% safe. If that bugs you, this isn't for you. 5. Don't mine on your personal computer, if you can help it. It is possible if you trust the miner and have done the research (or know who to ask the right questions to) but unless you have some experience, it isn't worth risking your files to whatever attack might happen. Multiple ingress points here, even if you do things the right way. So, my questions and concerns to the experts: 1. Based on the miners I said I had used at the times I used them (or only downloaded), do you still think there is risk that something has injected itself into my system? I had only ever used SSL connections to the pools, but I did not always have my VPN on while mining, and obviously, admin mode was stupid. 2. Am I going far enough with a windows soft reset, or should I go ahead and pull the trigger on formatting my hard drives and re-installing fresh with a bios flash? I'd prefer not to lose lose some apps, passwords and a decent chunk of files, but they were mainly archival in nature and anything super important I have backups of elsewhere. 3. Do we know of any network-spreading 4. What do you recommend to people wanting to dip their toes into mining? Seems like the entire place is a minefield people are tiptoeing around while snipers attempt to pop them in the head, miss, and blow someone else up.

Is there any crypto mining software that you can set its power level/mining level? Currently using NiceHash but I can't set its power level because my nvidia card won't let it set. My purpose is to lower the temperature of gpu while mining. I already cleaned the internals of my laptop and thermal paste is not a year old. My laptop is ASUS TUF GAMING FX705DU RYZEN 7 3750H GTX 1660TI 16 GB RAM. some options on MSI afterburner is locked, even I can't change the fan settings manually. My gpu is on constant 71-78 celcius while mining with NiceHash with daggerhashimoto algorithm and octopus algorithm.

First off , I Hope everyone and their Loved ones are well !! But I'm here just looking to see if anyone has a direction to send me or some tips, in creating an ecommerce store on the web 3.0 "platform" . I truly think that NFT and the blockchain as a whole , not only will change the world , but be a HUGE asset in the future of my Non Profit . Really the only thing that I have been able to find in my googles is ~ dshop ~ which is the leading option right now . But I'm not a coder or great with software . WooCommerce and WordPress were my furthest extent on website "design" I have designs drawn out from years ago of what i would want it to be , but its past what the Free templates are lol . So I'm wondering if anyone knows a way I can essentially build the website with these simple apps then just have it launched "decentralized" and accepting crypto . Or if there is a website builder specifically for it , like how WordPress and Squarespace . Thank you for your time !

Alright, this one is a weird one. While running nicehash quickminer, randomly (sometimes within a few minutes, sometimes after several hours) all my USB peripherals stutter and miss inputs (acts like a polling rate of 1hz, where the mouse only updates once a second) and audio (which is over USB) turns to mostly static. This issue is usually resolved right after stopping the miner... I've tried reinstalling GPU drivers (with DDU + NVCleaninstall), reinstalling chipset and audio drivers, deleting all USB drivers in device manager and lettings windows reinstall drivers, nothing. Any Ideas? (Before I give up and reinstall windows for the idk 832? time). Edit: I actually experienced this behaviour before (however I don't remember if it was related to nicehash that time, it was caused by the thunderbolt dock from what I remember (which I'm no longer using))

Hello, I have a unraid 6.9.2 server. It suffered a power loss and I lost all my shares. however it seemed the data is still there as the hard drives are still populated (see below). We have tried to find the data in the terminal, but we were unsuccessful. Also we noticed that my cpu on 50-100 % load. We checked it in the pining, and Xmrig (CPU crypto miner) was using the CPU. I am not sure how this happened but I use Xmrig on my pc where I accessed the server and was on the same network. My friend had a look and he said someone hacked in and did this then deleted all my data. I may or may not be in denial but I don't understand how they could have deleted the data without anything (logs) from the machine. Let me know if you can think of any other ways to see if my data still exists.

Hello everyone, I was thinking about POS Blockchains because it doesn't waste electricity. So there is a thing like the 51% stake attack, but what I'm thinking about is how do you even validate this? The person who has the biggest stake mines the block, and the description of POS blockchains says that it's a bad idea to "create a custom block" for example adding 100k coins to your wallet. So how do you ensure that the block is valid and how does the 51% stake attack work? Do you become the blockchain boss and anything you say is instantly valid?

A blockchain-backed NFT game called Axie Infinity is very popular at the moment at Southeast Asia. This game has been branded as a 'play-to-earn' game and many are crazed about it. I don't know how these kind of games work, it is very new to me. I am just wondering how can someone legitimately earn from these games, and how futureproof these games are. Thank you!

What are your general thoughts on if LMG creates a cryptocurrency? Pro's and Con's? I think the only use case I could think of off the top of my head was one in which holders could vote (costing a certain number of coins) or submit news ideas (also costing a certain number of coins) for the TechLinked channel on a cyclical basis. Then, whoever's ideas were used gets paid out a portion of the coin pool determined by voting popularity. Further, a portion of the total coin pool goes back to LMG as a fee. This puts less of a reliance on YouTube monetization, sponsors, and other forms of income for LMG, thus allowing them to focus on creating the best content with less focus on the money. Don't get me wrong, they seriously do the best at their sponsorship disclaimers, and transparency with money. Logistically, this could be a nightmare to create and would be unreasonable to even attempt for all I know (which is not that much for the creation of a crypto). But I know I would buy the coin, not for the profits of it, but because of the people behind the coin. I would like to hear y'all's thoughts on this matter (from people who know about this stuff way more then me). Lastly, has this discussion been made before? if so, where? Have a good day!

i'm going to make the decision whether or not to buy a new GPU for gaming (not mining) this month, based on your answers. 600€ is more than i'd ever spend on a GPU in a normal situation, but i'm worried i won't be able to get a 40 series card and be stuck with my old RX470 for another 2 years. i really don't know too much about crypto, but i speculate that the release of the next GPU generation will start another mining and scalping boom, just like last time and that GPUs will be basically unavailable for gamers again. i heard that the big coins can't be mined efficiently on GPUs anymore and that miners will have to switch to specific mining cards, or chip or whatever. i don't know if this is true, and that's why i'm here.
