That's right, exactly like the smoke and mirrors boards KNCminer were showing photos of until two days ago when we saw the first chips. If you look at the picture, there is a lot on that BFL board, a Cyclone FPGA, an Altmel 32uc3, it's no toy.

Ah, that's interesting. I knew there had to be a downside. I'm gonna give it a quick google, thanks

Edit: Did a google, didn't find much about viruses & p2pool

Also P2pool are notorious for viruses....

you're welcome

don't worry, I'm cool, everything is ok :-)

ok, thanks! nice ass, btw.  

Fantastic.    thanks orama

Are they still giving us tracking numbers..? 

If you've got time could you please ask and post back if they are in fact going to give us tracking numbers or if they're just to busy at moment.

Godspeed to you and the miners. 

Sorry, I wasn't trying to be a dick. Just wanted to know why it wasn't more popular if it's resilient to ddos attacks. You did answer my initial question, so thanks for that.


Gotcha. A bit harder to set up, so probably less popular for that reason.

How does 'follow the swarm' work out in general... ?
*a picture of lemmings just came to my mind

No, tis I, and plenty work here. It's a monster manufacturing facility, but not all staff want to be on camera. The waybills are legit. You'll be seeing tracking ids soon enough. That one was to Spain. So if he's reading, speak up.

I think main problem of that is because p2pool node needs basic knowledge to setup (but there are public nodes !!!)
and PPLNS systems - many newbies to p2pool hate that they don't get reward instant after start mining
Using p2pool it must be known - Payments will reach your maximum earnings after 24 hours. They will continue to progressively increase over time. This is how PPLNS works.

I'm not saying that it's better than any other pools type.
You specifically asked about what are the difference between p2pool and centralized pool like btcguild.
I merely listed those differences.
as simple as that.

 

I have more practical problems that need solving lol  

How come it's got even less miners using it than Slush's pool if it's so good?

Thank you !!

can you now reveal any details of the board issue that required extra time ?

AH

this pic will explain

Seems BFL are responding with a Monarch prototype.









it does not take a lot to make a prototype board for demo purposes if you don't show the ASIC chip more smoke and mirrors.

I can't post on BFL forums anymore but they are basically destroying the monarch on price vs shipping (ie feb) compared to orders now from knc in november


I'd have really liked to be a fly on the wall when Josh heard the following:

1) KNC is up and hashing with a working unit (maybe 1 day late) (that alone would have been epic)

2) KNC has increased the hashing power by 44% so my 600gh now has an extra 264gh potential increase now to around maybe 864gh

and of course 3 which really frosts the cake

3) That 264gh increase in hashing power is at NO COST

MAN talk about a bad day at BFL!

Just goes to show always go with the guys who start in april and say by September with the only proof is a web site with line drawings of the miners...


(must be a Swedish thing)

sheez this ASiC world is weird

hmmm....should probably not be bashing BFL and this card in that I had a "force uprgade" in my view with BFL no refund policy I upgraded to the monarch
my 60gh order.....I was right to do that I'm never gonna see the 60gh unit in time to do anything with it at the rate they are shipping..but was the only game in town
so this rat ran to the 600gh......likely both are lost live an learn doubt bfl will last long enough to get it out the door imho

distributed.
decentralized.
no single point of failure.
