Hi there!) I need your help.

I'm planning to buy several ZTEX 1.15y and want to know something - what do I need to start mining with this ZTEX 1.15y (external power supply and etc.)?

Thanx Wink

I use a standard atx high current psu to power Ztex 1.15y boards, 1m USB 2.0 A to Mini B 5 pin Cables, the boards I have came with a power lead but worth asking as the Ztex boards do have a weird power connector

Why is blake under the radar? Huh

so i can mine more before it explodes! actually it looks like it is starting to get noticed, network hashrate has tripled within the past week or so. up until recently blakecoin has been keeping a low profile while devs are busy porting tools to support it and setting up pools, block explorer etc. but most of that is done now so i think BLC will start to gain some recognition.

You can get used ZTEX 1.15y (hashrate around 1.6GH/s) for 100euro. Afaik it should give you higher hashrate (also hashrate/price) than the boards you posted.

I'd like to see where you can find one that cheap (especially an original one instead of a clone)

My two recent purchases have been closer to 200 EUR each, including postage. The cheapest offers I've seen were about 150, but it seems the prices are on the rise with a certain lucrative application Cool

http://allegro.pl/koparka-bitcoin-ztex-1-15y-860mh-s-i3978608115.html (400pln is around 100eur)
This guy has 5 of those to sell. I asked him to send me some pictures to see the condition of the board but he didnt respond yet. Last week there were 2 other offers with similar prices.

No Idea but it does not help that I would not pay BTC "Gifts" to some exchange operators Roll Eyes

The Blakecoin community might not be the biggest but a great bunch of people that have helped and supported since day one Cool

If I bypass the fuse with some 12ga wire I get fan spinning but no LED lights at all

that's not a good sign Cry

How well do these work for blakecoin. I seem to have killed my CM1. Back of PCB contacted PSU metal fan guard and shorted out.

They work well ~800MH/s with kramble's bitstream I also use the python miner but kramble has done a port for cgminer, they are as good as cm1 e.g 2 boards ~1.6GH/s but slightly slower than ztex 1.15y and you need a program cable "Xilinx USB Cable" can get a cheap one for <$50?

also did you replace/test the fuse on the cm1? (its little white block near usb)

they have a lot and will do wholesale prices here is another listing from same seller if you wanted volume

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Whole-Sale-FPGA-botcion-miner-HAND-Ship-24hours-DHL-/191062380273?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&var=&hash=item7225c2148a

Edit:
With the above seller dispatch time was quite slow delivery was quick if that makes sense, communications were ok

Note:
its not a ZTEX 1.15y and you need a programmer and the chips are also slightly different, The ZTEX board chips clock at higher fmax

also worth a note is that in UK I had import duty to pay factor that in to any costs Embarrassed

Ok, the pool is in open-beta now!

https://www.blakecoinpool.org/

You must download cgminer from the Getting Started page on the pool, the other miners posted on this topic will not work properly!

Please PM me any bug/issue/glitch/suggestion, I will gladly help you

How to unlock the account there? No any options, and no any support contacts Sad

Ok, understand. I has settled and looks good now.

BTW: Love the pool, think it's the best I've seen. I have been mining BTC/LTC and a few other the past couple of weeks (still new to this), but this seems a lot better and a lot less stress on the system.

GREAT JOB!!!

Thanks

any problem just let me know Cool

I have updated my ban lists on all server, this will reduce the load on the servers from bad traffic

If you have made it onto the list and can't connect you will need to explain your actions via pm to be considered for the white list (include your IP for reference) else it is a permanent ban Sad

Hi BlueDragon747. I hope I'm not on this list, couldn't think of a reason why I would be but wanted to check.

Also, started getting "Stratum connection to pool 0 interrupted" errors on SF1 server, is it having problems? It's been working great all day..

Thanks,
Tom

I was working on SF1 a few hours ago so its me changing some code and settings, a normal user just would not get a ban, the people on list have been DDOS, attempted forced entry, flooding the server and generally creating high load and crashing the servers(not accidental) Undecided

if I reset the pool you will get a 1-5 second "Stratum connection to pool 0 interrupted" then it should continue as normal, it is me either changing the software code or I have gone out and set an automatic reset to avoid a crash/down time when I am not about

I am still working to get a more stable code base hence the 0% fees but the pool server do still cost something to run each month so welcome any donations % on pools to help cover costs if you find them useful Cheesy

Ok, understand. I has settled and looks good now.

BTW: Love the pool, think it's the best I've seen. I have been mining BTC/LTC and a few other the past couple of weeks (still new to this), but this seems a lot better and a lot less stress on the system.

GREAT JOB!!!
