Since I don't have the 1080Ti in my farm, I've never actually used "the pill" and I was wondering what exactly happened with "OhGodAGirl"?
Can someone sum it up? Did she end up scamming certain people? What does she have to do with ProgPOW?

I always assumed she was wolf0's girlfriend or wife since his software in the past had the prefix "OhXXXX". Wolf0's been pretty legit and has a good reputation and such. Many of the algo's he's released for free.

She started "Minerority" a loose group of mostly anonymous geeks around the world and promised dirt cheap hosting for FPGAs, as well as allot of other code that was never delivered. There's allot of crap that can't be proven (at least not by me) that took place over 6 months or so. What is 100% known is that she eventually said that Minority was closed and never delivered the hosting and somehow over $600,000 of hosting fees disappeared. Either she outright stole it, or was truly dumb enough to leave it all in Eth.... either way it's gone and she acts like nothing ever happened. The last part is what pisses me off the most, combined with her occasionally showing up on Discord to troll people and then purging he Discord and Twitter accounts. She certainly does not act like someone with nothing to hide and there are lots of reasons to be very very wary of anything she is involved in.

Is she an outright thief or just an egomaniac manipulator with dubious moral character? I don't know, but I do know that I want nothing to do with her.

that is what I don't know did she simply hold the eth and get crushed if so she is stupid and pretty much a victim of bitmain's asic war on gpu's

or did she convert to cash and scam then she is a villain.

if she was a good guesser and dumped the eth to cash she could of hosted everyone and they would have lost but less then they did.

if she was a good guesser and dumped the eth to cash and run she is simply a thief.

sql and acorn helped her collect by saying we are a real company it lent her more legitimacy . so my guess is

she
sql/acorn
bitmain
inno
multiple coin developers.
all have some blame for the mess.

we are too far out of the loop to know

to be honest I don't know how it fell apart or who should be blamed. It fell apart yes

eth tanked like a mad dog most gpu coins were killed off by asics and by fpga's

whether she is the main villain or a victim or someone in the middle I don't know.

My info is lite I am not in any inner circles of info sharing.

I mine some BCI using progpow thats about it.

Before the Pill, the eth hash is about 35MH/s. After the pill, the hash rate is about 50MH/s. It is for my 1080Ti.

What miner do you use ?

because i have tested all configs on my rx580 farm and i'm not profitable on any of them.

I got 915h/s for 106W per card on Monero it is not profitable with my electricity cost :

https://whattomine.com/coins/101-xmr-cryptonightr?utf8=%E2%9C%93&hr=915.0&p=106.0&fee=0.0&cost=0.15&hcost=0.0&commit=Calculate

At 15 cents / kwh you can pretty much write off being profitable unless something new shows up or another "big price jump" happens.

Yeah I almost bought those acorns, sounded to good to be true. Just pop them into slots and they make all my existing GPUs so much better! Glad my skepticism won out in the end.. I guess it could be possible that they'd work with proper software, but I just don't see how.

'The right to privacy matters'

there were acorns and the 1525's

the acorns were not programmed or offered proper software.

the 1525's came late.

most likely they held eth it crashed and that explains the 1525 issue. my guess is very bad money management and the lack of

understanding of the risk of price crashing explains the FPGAs 1525's.

This is a fuckup ,but not criminal intent as such still not good. Stinks of a lawsuit big time.

But there is no info on why Acorns claimed to be able to do abc with software
and there is zero proof that software ever was around.
My opinion is that sql will get sued over the acorns. Possibly get charged with fraud.

Since they have never proven the claims they made were true in the first place.

How can they have had cash flow problems when they got paid up front?!

I find it hard to believe everything was above board

that is the question isnt it.

one theory (which i believe) is that mineority kept all/most eth payments as eth instead of cashing in at least enough to cover immediate and an amount of future cash needs. then of course eth tanked.

one rumor i heard was that kristy/ohgodagirl over promised the amount of BCUs that would be in demand, and the didnt pay according to the payment schedule agreed too. thus xilinx lowered sqrl BCU priority on the production line.

of course that is speculation, based on discord conversations and my imperfect memory.

once the lawyers and NDAs get all sorted out it will be an interesting story.

You just proved my point , TIMING they mined early when those fpgas were quite profitable internally, and delivered to you guys after they were basically worthless, it’s the same old trick all pre-order teams pull

It was exactly what I expected to happen

from what i understand, some devs were mining privately on amazon AWS F1 instances and some with unmodified VCU1525s way before any of this stuff was announced publicly. the idea for selling BCU1525s (which are basically just modified VCU1525s) came later and delays were on Xilinxs end as they were not paid on schedule IIRC. due to cash flow problems from mineority or sqrl, not sure which as they were all intertwined at that time. otherwise we would of had them much sooner.

naturally this is from my recollection and may be wrong.
