lol, yep im ordering one asic eruptor just to play with,,,pretty sure it will act like the klondikes with the cgminer,,, not sure on the raspi yet...even tho their pretty cheap now... where/how did you contact canary for a .55 one? through bitcoin forums? thats a steal! was thinking btc guild,,or even on ebay for 67.00 now and i have a 10% off ebay coupon! WOOT! lol thx!

Canary`s group buy

If your looking to run Block Erupters on the PI then I recommend Mine Peon as It only involves writing the SD Card and then putting in your pool details. Am sure it will be updated for the K16`s pretty quick as soon as the k16s are in the wild...

Thanks southerngent. That is where I bought the blockerupter usb from. Canary had a great sale over the weekend.

I'm using minepeon on my RasPi and it's working great!

I brought 25 so far with him and am hoping to double up in the next week or so, there are cheaper group buys but I have 100% trust for canary and he is g8 with shipping..

Hugpuggle, that's adorable

Do you have a website of any kind?

Our pool is called HugPuddle, but HugPuggle has a funky ring to it too

Our site is merely the mining page at the moment.
http://108.161.129.247:9332
You can both view your miner here and direct your miner here.
We have a web page in the works

We are just alpha-test-tuning right meow.
When we go beta we plan to start a formal thread and release the web page Cool

Hey Atomsea...will copy this info...may give it a shot, i havent had a lot of luck $ in the past with p2p pools (LTC and FTC)....but always willing to take another look! I may be ordering some usb asics now that price is dropping on them,,,will see if it connects,,,keep us posted in here thx

Right on

And indeed, p2p pool has had its hiccups, but we have been running smooth since the 13.2 upgrade, along with our virtual server syncing/tuning. We are excited about the work forrestv and the thread [https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=18313.0] have been doing. We decided that the open-source p2p nature of this work best fit our vision at HugPuddle

Those usb miners don't do much, but they are fun to play with.

lol, yep im ordering one asic eruptor just to play with,,,

And I hate to admit it - but we got soooo excited when ASICminer came out with the USB asic that we bought one for 2BTC (about 200usd) to yes, "play with." Reason went out the door! Had to have one Tongue

Boys and their toys! Hahahaha Cheesy

But glad we have it - It is the only asic we have to Alpha test HugPuddle at the moment

Thus we are VERY excited to receive our Terrahash equipment!
We hope Avalon ships soon

FYI,
I bought an asicminer usb from Canaryinthemine on Sunday for .55btc (shipping included) and received it on Wednesday. He is an excellent seller. I'm testing it on my RasPi to get the unit ready for my terrahash boards when they arrive. Those usb miners don't do much, but they are fun to play with.

Everyday I wake thinking ,,this is the day we will hear that the chips have arrived......lol, in the meantime, I'm having a picnic mining FTC and selling FTC....lol more than one way to get that BTC still! Tongue

Yep, diversification is the key. I also have a bot trading BTC 24/7 for me. A little bit here and there and we will ensure success. Btw, thank you for the kind words in your previous post. Very much appreciated.

A little tidbit from bkkcoins (below) regarding a question ask by bebfoo earlier today....this has been a bit of a question in here last couple of days regarding how a k64 will be powered...one pci-e or 4?? this kinda gives us an idea, but i guess we will have to trust that terrahash has this already figured this out and knows that the k64 will chain properly?

bebfoo ask:
So Bkkcoins: will you be producing K64 boards (4 K16 all on one PCB board) or no? Wondering how Terrahash will be getting the K64 boards for the DX large boxes...

BKK answer:
I doubt I'll actually produce any boards or design layout for K64 - though technically I kind of have one in my hand right now. A 4up panel of K16 boards. A good layup of a K64 would join the klego pins and remove extra connector pads to save parts. However, joining together all the 12V power is difficult and would require a connector assembly that could take 4x as much current. It is probably is feasible to join each pair of K16s into one PCIe connector and save on 2 anyway. I don't think K64s should be built until working K16s are tested in chain configuration.

Is anyone planning on using the TH hosting service? Any thoughts? It seems like a good deal on the surface, but I am skeptical that I am missing something. Can anyone give good reasons not to use it? Thanks!

No fees, decent stats. But to be honest I haven't strong feelings one way or the other. Do you have any issues/concerns with them?

I think I am going to use Eclipse: https://eclipsemc.com/

As for wallet, likely Coinbase (but hold on possible price increases in BTC) but maybe just blockchain.info

What draws you to eclipse?

Has anyone tried eligius? They seem to have a really interesting payout scheme

How are their stales?

I'm excited!

What mining pools are you guys going to be using?

My friend and I are creating an Asic friendly virtual server P2P pool mining site - HugPuddle.
We are currently conducting Alpha testing.
Here is the link 108.161.129.247:9332
To mine, you use your BTC wallet public key as your -u and anything for your -p. There isn't a login.
We are striving for low latency and low orphans. So far so good. Our curve gets better everyday.
We will be using our 50 gigs on this site

No fees for us, and low fees for you - 98% is yours.
1% to HugPuddle - 1% to the P2P Pool open-source developers.
Our unique angle is our virtual server with additional load-bearing features so there will be no downtime and maximum hashing at all times.
Like I said - we are finishing up Alpha testing and you are free to Beta test it with whatever BTC hashing power you have, be it GPU's or Asics. We want to make sure it can handle all types.
We currently have GPU and USB ASICminers on it

A more formal website is in the works

I usually mine on Bitcoin.cz aka Slush's Pool,,,and occasionally BTC Guild cause of all the fancy statistics,,, but overall Slush's seems to make the most money for me. ( when I was GPU mining BTC) Coinbase would be a safe bet to send you payouts to if you plan to sell your coins. I still have mine come to my own wallet as its easier for me if I want to purchase things on line with BTC.

Maybe they will ship the chips simultaneously...lol

Batch 3 avalon miner order numbers 51xx 6xxx and 87xx all got tracking today. Well I won't say all, but it seems avalon is making their way through batch 3 at a good rate (notice I didn't use the word time) now. Hopefully chips aren't too far down the road.

It appears the Avalon 3 units are shipping

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=203745.720

From the speculation that I have garnered - it may be the case that they are waiting to ship out the bulk of their batch 3 units until they will be sending chips out. There were some very upset people when that first Zefir chip order went out - litigation threats even - I suspect Avalon is choosing to appease their unit buyers first (as they ordered first), and will ship out the rest of the chips soon after that. We can only hope they do so in mass, or we will be waiting some still.

Wow,,, you could be right??? there sure is some happy campers there,wish it was out tracking getting emailed to us! Sad
