I see Monero wallet is installing blockchain to my C drive on which I don't have enough space because it is SSD, how can I move that to other drive?
how do I point wallet to sync to other drive and not C?

Is there light wallet?

Is anyone here mining on mineXMR.com?

My balance hasn't increased since about midnight (GMT) last night yet i'm still submitting shares. I also noticed all payments seemed to have stopped at around the same time on the site.

Can anyone shed any light?

Charlie.

EDIT: looks like it's sorted now.

Money often costs too much.
Because once you've made an ASIC, it's pretty difficult to open it up and start moving things around Smiley

There's nothing stopping anybody adding these changes into the next batch of ASICs, other than time and the fact that it'd be useless again in a few months with the next PoW change.

I understand that a chip cannot be changed after fabbed but I also understand that certain things can be emulated in software. Therefore I would like to know the exact change that a designer would have to add or go around to hash this new algo. Do you see my question now? I tend to think out of the box.
The "certain thing that you would have to emulate in software" is something the asic can't do.  So you're back to square one.  I don't see it.
A hybrid variant with FPGA chips on board seems doable, think changeable chips. The whole mining process (BTC) once has been based on them.

The real monero is still XMR. The hard fork was not a meant to be a chain split, but a protocol update that already happened several times ago. This time, ASIC miners did not make the move and stayed on the old chain.

sorry, I'm totally confused... there was a split in team monero?

No

The other "projects" (if they are actually real projects) are opportunists who came along and decided to adopt the old fork, mostly because ASIC manufactures want their own coin to mine. There are no existing team members involved with that at all.

Small tweak, hashrates kept the same. SUMO made a bigger change, here the hashrates of many cards dropped, my GTX 1060 3GB by about 10%

why can't asics (current) not handle it?

Your daemon is probably connected to a bad peer (i.e. a peer that is on the wrong (alternative) v6 chain). It should eventually ban this peer. Also, a restart typically fixes these kind of issues.

Can someone please explain this article to me? It says there are 4 different Moneros now. Which one does the original dev team support?

https://news.bitcoin.com/privacy-coin-xmr-splits-into-four-different-monero-protocols/

There Can Be Only One.  XMR is still XMR.  Anything else is a fraud or a joke at this point.

Original members of the team are still working on Monero?

I'm not aware of any Monero team members who have left to work on any of these forks.

Since 2014 some team members have left for various reasons and some have joined but I think that was not what you were asking.


Thanks! I'm glad that Monero is fine now. Forks look very scammy.

Monero is a bright future coin

 Monero (XMR) is an open-source cryptocurrency created in April 2014 that focuses
 
 A user needs client software, a so-called wallet, to interact with the Monero network. The Monero Project produces the reference implementation of a Monero wallet and there are also third party implementations of Monero clients exist such as Monerujo which also make it possible to use Monero on Android.

The quality of these bot posts is getting a lot higher, is there a 'dating' bot on the market yet? In a few years talking with a bot could easily be more satisfying than talking to a human, just turn off the nagging feature and I'm in love.

So what exactly is the tweak(in plain english) and why can't asics (current) not handle it?
