ryan_woody posted:How will that work if they're only paying out at 0.1 BTC? The 0.1 BTC limit only applies to truly external wallets, like if you're trying to have them send it directly to a wallet held by BitGo or your own paper wallet or whatever. They deposit to their internal (Nicehash) fake-wallet at 0.001 BTC. You can then move the BTC from the internal fake-wallet to Coinbase (and only Coinbase, since they've set up some sort of agreement) for free. From there you can do any number of things with it. If you're not expecting to mine ~$1600 worth of butts in a timely manner, this Nicehash internal -> Coinbase wallet move is the only way to actually get your funds out.

Seems that us Canadians get all kinds of shafted, as is usual. Coinbase to QuadrigaCX looks suboptimal. Is Coinbase to Gyft as much of a pain in the rear end? To quote the title of the Canadian BFC megathread, paying more is our national pastime.

Once the NSA is done with their giant prime factorization experiment that we known as cryptocurrency, they'll have all they need to break tor and decrypt messages encrypted with PGP on the darknet.

Fine, they're probably legit, but you get paid in Litecoin or whatever other internet pog which is completely useless to me and cannot be turned into actual money in any reasonable way. I live in Sweden and have a bank account denoted in Swedish crowns. Coinbase proudly claims that it "is available in your country" and states that bank transfers to European bank accounts only take 1-2 business days. There's only this small problem that Q8ee posted about earlier: to let you withdraw, they first require that you deposit from the account you're withdrawing into, and they only support doing this in Euro. I'm not going to open a different loving bank account for this. Money laundering via Amazon gift cards is also out because Amazon doesn't even operate in Sweden and I'm not that interested in shopping from Germany, paying stupid amounts of money for shipping only to get my packages lost by DHL. oh cry me a river, i pay $500 a month for healthcare and I'd still go bankrupt if I broke my arm.

In case you were wondering there are other totally worthless things people do with their spare computing power with even worse payouts. Some dude just discovered the largest known prime number, 2^77,232,917 − 1. https://www.mersenne.org/primes/press/M77232917.html

Some dude just discovered the largest known prime number, 2^77,232,917 − 1. Large prime numbers are useful in cryptography for reasons I don't entirely understand, to the point that there are cash prizes for finding them. The guy who's computer first found that one will be getting $3000 from GIMPS and the first person or team to find a prime with over 100,000,000 digits gets $150,000 from the EFF (if this is found by the GIMPS project as the last few have been the actual individual participant gets $50,000).

wolrah posted:Large prime numbers are useful in cryptography for reasons I don't entirely understand, to the point that there are cash prizes for finding them. The very TLDR about that is that multiplying two prime numbers together to get a semi-prime number is very very easy; finding the two factors you used to create the number is very very not easy (yet). So the bigger the prime, the more secure the resulting semi-prime number. Public keys are the result of the math, and private keys are the numbers used to do the math. Edit: this is vastly vastly simplified over reality, but covers why primes matter.

Burst has been going crazy the past few days. It's actually has a 2 month ROI for some usb 8 TB harddrives at the moment if difficulty/rewards remain the same. Also looking into it, one of their plans this year is to store the combined culture of the world using their proof of storage system and do their lookups based on that, so they'll be essentially backing up "important" data from around the world and distributing that info to keep it from being lost.

Winminer is starting to have good payouts. Going to let it run until I get paid and report back. Not going back to Nicehash unless there's a dramatic change in...well basically everything about it. I don't care if it's 10% lower earnings if it can pay straight to Paypal and is over 4 dollars a day. But, right now, my projected earnings are at last years Nicehash levels, 10 dollars a day from a 1080 and a 980. Even with my 21 cents per KWH power costs that's worth it. It's actually even easier to setup that Nicehash.

Turned WinMiner on again and it's now claiming $6 per day mining HUSH on a GTX 1080 at 60% TDP (120W or so), plus another $1.75 from mining ETN on the CPU (another 55W - Cryptonight is apparently memory bound, so the CPU doesn't actually do that much work).

Kazinsal posted:What the gently caress is a SiaCoin? Distributed data storage. There's basically two ways to spend/earn money on it. The first is the regular GPU mining. You can also rent your storage for SiaCoins at a market rate and the network distributes the data that people are paying to have uploaded to the cloud across all the people who are selling their storage. You need to have at least 95% uptime though otherwise the network will never allocate your storage and award you coins for it.

cstine posted:So you're being paid to host someone's child porn collection? Well, part of it. The data would be spread across multiple hosts and not all of it would (generally) be in one place. And it would be encrypted so to you it would look like random data. But yeah there is the possibility of illegal content being uploaded to your hardware. I'm not sure what the legal ramifications might be if someone hosted part of an encrypted child porn file. Presumably dropbox, and other cloud storage companies have had to deal with this so there may be some history on how it's handled.
