If BTC was still $1000, people would have continually pay for preorders, not so right now.

Anybody here from Sweden? can you post Swedish average electricity price (or high-low), does not matter whether in $, euro or SEK.
It is pretty easy to find these numbers for US, but the only site I was able to find prices for Sweden, they look quite low, in fact much lower than europe's average.
Is that so?

And keep getting defected Titan's with late delivery, Y cables with a very late delivery ?

We discussed electricity prices before. The lowest published rates are roughly 8 eurocents per KWH, so 10 cents USD, which isn't great.

However, the consensus seemed to be that KNC (along with Facebook and other large data centers) are probably getting a much cheaper price. (This is typical in most jurisdictions. If you employ people you can get breaks on the rates.)

So below 8 eurocents, above free. Haha. My guess would be closer to 8 euro cents, not less than 5. But that's a hardcore guess.

KnC Titan users:

We suggest you to use #xnsub AND #skipcbcheck parameters to get stable mining on NiceHash or WestHash, example:

stratum+tcp://stratum.nicehash.com/#xnsub#skipcbcheck

With those settings you'll be able to get a stable 350 Mh/s average speed with fw 1.95 overclocking at 325MHs.


btw: average NiceHash/WestHash Scrypt profitability is aprox. 25% more then direct Litecoin mining.

ok so..... that is it?.....no other tweaks to bfgminer or some such on the Titan just the above additions to the straum+tcp command line above
and you are good to go?

(just making sure I don't have to do some kinda out of box mods that seem simple to everyone else but me)


edit:

just read the page on extranonce subscription check

https://www.westhash.com/?p=asic

...no frigging idea how to do rebuilds of bfgminer (not sure that even works says cgminer)
for Titan

so does bfgminer have this extranonce patch already if so i'll try the above ..if not it is unlikely i will muck with it for fear of bricking titan

thanks again







got the following reply via PM for those interested....looks like it is pretty straight forward here is the reply (don't think they will mind)


Sure, all this is already in the official BFGMiner and already included in the latest firmware. Simply use stratum+tcp://stratum.nicehash.com/#xnsub#skipcbcheck as pool URL and you'll be fine (Not sure how you set port - can you send us a print-screen of Titan's web interface where you set-up pools and ports?)


i sent them copies of my adv pages on my imgur site (my shrine to jupiter and titan see below) so again thanks for the info looks pretty straight forward

adv page(s) below in case the pm did not work

(er overkill on the hobby as you can see from the above pics)

anyway have not tried this on my Titan yet ..up to my elbows in a basement fix....but hope this helps someone on here as well as a clarification

The sad thing is, I've read about 2000 pages of this thread Sad  Cry

Anyway, let's hope the "stern and harsh" Sweden laws catch up with kfc this year. So far, they have let them away with murder.

Speaking of murder, has anyone heard from bitconorama since kfc "terminated" him?

He often expressed his desire to convince knc to offer a skrypt product.
He must be in tall cotton now, with his titans...


YMMV

Wow, 2000 pages.  Impressive. 

I own two Jupiters (no longer using) and a Neptune.  (Still waiting on my "bonus miner".)  I still power up one of the Jupiters every other month or so for a few hours to see if it still hashes.

KnC's best feature: they are so quiet and don't generate that much heat.  Their worst feature: The shipping and handling guys at KnC don't know how to securely ship equipment (in the Jupiter and Super Jupiter era--they got better with the Neptune).

I've since moved on to only purchasing Spondoolies equipment: Very powerful, and a small footprint.  But they are so loud and generate so much heat.  (2x SP10, 2x SP30, 1x SP35).

I really wish KnC would have stayed legit.  They were the first mining company that actually delivered equipment to me.  They have fallen from grace.

I guess I was one of the few that actually profited from KnC but I admit I never went farther than the Neptune.  It is sad that things turned out this way when selfish greed killed something good.

I need to take part in page 2000 as well.. At one point I had over 30 Jupiters but I divested myself of KNC before the Neptune starting shipping and haven't had a KNC product since.. I still have a warm spot for them since I cut my teeth on the Jupiter and had a lot of fun with my custom firmware..

kfc Kurt(is) got the chop in December, just in time to be Sam's Xmas turkey! Tongue Cheesy

Are the rats leaving the sinking ship ?


yep imho.....if i was in customer support on the web site and/or tech support or sales..I'd be making my resume right now
the whole consumer end of knc is now gonna go poof as soon as the last titan hits the world..run little rats run....

I wonder if we will ever see another update of firmware beyond 1.95 of any note on the Titan? From the Neptune experience it could end guickly.

again i must admit knc went from nun to porn star compared to how they acted and delivered last fall......they should make the asic TV
version of 'Breaking Bad" the bitcoin version ...similar theme...a soap opera indeed and it went 'so wrong so fast'

well played indeed. KNC ....(I was snookered)



edit: additonal info

well at least the guy posting fixes on github for Titan (last firmware upgrade of any type v1.95 on dec 9th)   https://github.com/KnCMiner/titan

has not left yet here is his profile.....(or at least he has not posted he is gone yet) devitas

https://se.linkedin.com/pub/vitalii-demianets/59/433/208

if he takes a walk I will cry cry cry as I can't see KNC hiring anyone else to get up to speed on firmware fixes at this point in time
