Topic: FPGA Mining Contract - page 9. (Read 38778 times)
Just kind of wondering, when are dividends paid? Is it just any day of the week, but normally a weekend? Not that I'm complaining or anything, just wondering. On a side note, I'v been using my dividends to buy more stocks
Put an order to queue and don't spam in this topic. Anyone interested in buying/selling will find what are current asks/bids.
If anyone's interested in some FPGA.contract stock at a discount, I've been pushing the price down the past few days trying to offload shares (though I really want them) because I need the BTC before I have loans up. I have 73 remaining if anyone wants them for .38BTC/share. I'll buy in later -- none too happy I wasn't able to hold these shares for longer than a week.
I'll take 5 at that price, order is active.
ETA: 53 remaining

My goal was to not push the price down further for others holding, but as you wish.

You guys rock. I wish GLBSE worked like you guys do...lol
I second that on both points!

Yeah, except the issues were self imposed so that TheSeven and I could work on MPBM.
Well, partially. The filesystem failure would have caused some downtime anyway, and we took the chance to try out MPBM while setting up things again.
Just to be clear, I know there has been a lot of downtime this week. When it comes time to pay the dividends, I will just make up the difference from a typical week so that you're all still earning a normal week's worth of BTC.
Hell, most corporations say you're SOL on divs if they have issues or losses. This is unexpected.

New bitstream? There are some problems with 2 FPGA's.
I don't know what the cluster is currently running with, but if it's one huge MPBM instance (and that's likely), the individual FPGAs aren't tied down to their pool accounts, so the hashing power is probably just not distributed evenly. While some FPGAs show near zero hashrate, others show like 800MH/s, so on average it fits.Yep, TheSeven is exactly right. Here's a screenshot:
The overall hashrate is 2.8 GH/s (or 7 x 400 MH/s), but it's being oddly distributed over the various worker names. I'll probably just do away with those all together and create one account for FPGA.contract.

one of my keypairs was corrupted in email, or some issue I cant figure out. It tries to log me into that account, but then the script freezes up my firefox.
try pasting into write (wordpad) or notepad and turning off wordwrap, (or if on some other OS a decent editor)
it should have 7 lines.
if it looks like the following, that is with the data having blank lines between then they need to be removed and the lines joined. label, id, publickey and privatekey are each on one line.
[{
"label":"mylabel",
"id":"deadbeef...",
"publicKey":"-----BEGIN RSA PUBLIC KEY-----
\u000aMIIBkkkkkkkkw7YXADObAYocKW/PBjjXqxOZ\u000amdOQmjA

....

"privateKey":"-----BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY-----

I had that same thing happen, and Im still waiting for Nefario to get it on track. It usually takes a few days for him to get things done from my experience.
for me it's not urgent. as long as it's doable and I get my dividends, it can last a year.
by "that same thing happen" what do you mean? uploading password protected key pair?
uploading custom keys without password may save a lot of time in the long run. when glbse goes bitcoin mainstream this will happen probably very often

Please let me know if I left anything out or you have any other questions!
Hi, I've chosen the option "upload keys" for the other account (i have two accounts with glbse; one self made and one glbse keypair generated).
Nowhere I found it mentioned that the uploaded keypair must not be password protedted (usually every key pair I generate is password protected, kind of auto pilot).
My question is, can I change the keypair of the other account while I transferred assets to it?
Of course I can not use the other account. There's no prompt for password, just an error msg while I try to use the account.
Looks like the cluster is back up running at its regular hashrate, this time using the MPBM software 
I expect that wildly varying hash rate to stabilize throughout the next couple of hours.

Dividends have been paid for the week of 1/30/2012!
The payment went out last night, but I was too busy to post.
We set a new record for the second week in a row!
Total paid to 6000 shares: 15.62244878 BTC
Dividend per share: 0.00260374 BTC
Around the time that I paid the dividend last night, the machine running the cluster had a major failure. Then, after reinstalling the OS and bringing everything back up, TheSeven spent some time testing his Modular Python Bitcoin Miner (MPBM) with it. I offered him full remote access to the cluster so that he could test hotplugging and stability. So far it looks great! I plan to pitch in some BTC of my own for the lost mining time on the cluster due to this, so it won't affect your earnings.
