Hello,

What strategy are you following with sia coins?, are you holding them or are you trading to BTC?.

Best regards.

Holding for now
Really not selling any but I think my ideal strategy will be hold a percent,  swap some for other coins to hold to diversify, and sell some to pay for mining power ...

Hi!, your proposal is interesting. I have everything still in altcoins, but I think that we would have to sell something to make a profit and pay for mining power. What method do you use to convert it to USD?

Regards!.

Depending on where you live an exchange like Kraken or Coinbase (GDAX) would be an option for trading fiat currency for bitcoin and selling bitcoin for fiat currency.

Tôi không hiểu thuật toán mà nó sử dụng, bất cứ ai có thể tìm thấy nhiều thông tin về nó?

Hi guys,

I ask again, could somebody with a D3 be so nice and post
a hex dump of the PIC16F1704?

Thanks and bye, FNT

Send me a link with instructions on how to make the dump and I'll get it for you. I have 2 D3's and 6 A3's. I also flashed the D3's with the firmware for the A3's and after a few minutes the board went to all XXXX. I ended up flashing the D3's with the blissz firmware.

Have theory that A3 was build on D3  and this is the reason some A3 (including mine) have problems with hash boards - appears/disappears, hashing/no hashing, all asics few only and then turning 0000 into xxxx...

Nothing is helping to solve: rebooting, restarting, resetting, plugging / unplugging, each by one, separately, adding two AWP++ , changing controller cables 1/4, 2/4, 3/4, 4/4  Even flashing ( thank you blissz) - NOTHING

But funny my D3 with A3 firmware turns into A3 miner, even connects to the SIA pool, but not hashing and after moment all asics turns xxxx

This suggest than  sia network or "brick attack" on 24th is not the real problem. The real is that bitmain cleaned D3 stock transforming them into A3 thought

____  NOW the funny moment. If/when somebody finds out hot to avoid that wall  to make D3 (with A3 firmware) hashing on SIA network.... Smiley  ....... ALL D3 would finally be able to deliver ROI

Actually been working this angle, have a pretty good idea of what makes a miner a D3 or and A3, but i need a D3 to test or someone with a D3 to send me some data to try to turn my A3 into a D3.

There's pretty good reasons for bitmain to do something like this if they could. It would massively increase profits for them to have a ASIC chip that could be re-seeded to different algos.

Also if you want to dump firmware the bitmain way...

nanddump -f /initramfs.bin.SD /dev/mtd8
nanddump -f /am335x-boneblack-bitmainer.dtb /dev/mtd6
nanddump -f /uImage.bin /dev/mtd7
nanddump -f /u-boot.img /dev/mtd4

You'll have to hex edit those files afterwards and remove the trailing FF's to make them exactly like bitmain sends them out.

Hi!

I have read that you are working for convert your A3 in a D3.

Have you been able to advance something?.

Best regards!.

  It was not a bad idea to order it from the 1st batch.   So, how much do you guys earn per day now?  Or earned last month?  Smiley

Batch 2 started shipping.

Any idea how many miners were sold for Batch 2 ? Maybe someone who ordered from Batch 2 could check BCH address - how many payments did they get from people.

I don't think that is an accurate way to tell how many were sold.

Well, the last time it was pretty accurate, unless this time they used USD transfer also.

mined SIAs: I sold some of the coins, and hold some of the coins -> diversification.

Got a batch 1 A3 and been dumping those s..t coins ever since, been glad because the next big batch is going to ship out and all the new miners are going to want to sell some coins and price will plummet further. I really don't see Sia going anywhere, as the company is once again out of money, and there really seems to be an almost amazingly slow adoption of the whole concept for anything 'grand' to happen. I just hope to pay off my expensive batch 1 price tag before the bulk of the March batch gets online...Might as well take whatever the market will give for siacoin, and put it into something with some potential IMO.

I underclock mine to prevent from having to reset it all the time, I set mine to 569M or 575M in the Miner Config / Advanced Settings, and haven't had to reboot in a month or more ... Not ideal for profits, but less manual monitering and hopefully better on the machine...

and I am currently on F2pool and see the same thing as Luxor and Sia pools, hash rates all over the place... just my 2 cents
