This is as useful to people using Bitcoin as is the "security" of using the Visa payment network, which is also pretty power hungry. Many crypto miners use alternative energy sources and direct mining heat to their homes or swimming pools. But there are many things that can be perceived to waste energy in this world, right? Here are a few:</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br />video gaming</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana;

It
will involve <b>more reading than usual</b> and <b>more paying attention</b> than usual and
since most people have very short attention spans when they are cruising the
Internet, I don’t think too many people will read this blog post the whole way
through. I wanted to make a video of it, but logistically it was becoming too
difficult because of the question-and-answer format. The blog post is a Socratic
discussion of <b>love</b> and how we can make the world a better place. The
<i>Socratic method</i> is a technique used by Socrates (the Greek philosopher) to come to know the truth
through questions and answers. Socrates usually had at least one person to
bounce his questions off of. The questioner today will be Brian and May will be
answering the queries. If you have the time and can make it to the end, it
should be interesting and maybe, just maybe, it will lead us to a better world.<br /><o:p> <br /></o:p><b>Brian</b>: Hi, May. So to start things off, do we want
more love and positivity in the world?</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>May</b>: Yes, Brian. That would be nice.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>B</b>: Yes, I agree, it would be a blessing. Do we want
more hate and negativity in the world?</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>M</b>: That would be a hard no.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>B</b>: Okay, do you agree that our thoughts become words
and sometimes our thoughts become actions? Like I can decide in my head that I
am going to rob a bank and then that can lead to the action of robbing a bank,
correct?</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>M</b>: Yes.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>B</b>: And our words and actions often impact those
people around us, right?</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>M</b>: Yes, our words and actions do impact our family
and friends and other people who come into contact with us.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>B</b>: So, if we have positive or loving words and
actions, the people around us will be impacted by that love and positivity,
perhaps even by speaking or doing things that are positive or loving themselves,
right?</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>M</b>: I would think so.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>B</b>: So, by being positive or acting in ways aligned
with love, we are spreading love and positivity in the world, correct?</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>M</b>: At least the people that we come into contact with
would see and feel that love and positivity.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>B</b>: But the people that come into contact with our
positivity could spread positivity and love to people they meet too, isn’t that
true? The positivity and love could propagate out like ripples in a pond.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>M</b>: Yes, it’s true.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>B</b>: So, my love and positivity could multiply and have
a much wider spread than I know, right?</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>M</b>: Yes, it can spread wider.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>B</b>: Do you think the world is a better place if love
and positivity are spread from me?</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>M</b>: Of course, yes, but in a limited way.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>B</b>: But is the world a better place? Yes or no?</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>M</b>: Yes.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>B</b>: Do you think if we speak or act from a place of
hate or have negative things to say that this would affect or impact people
around us?</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>M</b>: I’m sure it would.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>B</b>: So, the world would be a worse place, right? Even
if in a limited way.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>M</b>: Yes, it would be worse.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>B</b>: Do you know what quantum entanglement is?</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>M</b>: I’ve heard of that. Can you remind me what it is?</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>B</b>: Quantum entanglement is the phenomenon where an
atom acted upon will cause a reaction on another atom somewhere else in the
room, the world, or even at the other end of the universe. In physics, this is
also called action at a distance, or as Einstein dubbed it, “spooky action”. It
is a proven phenomenon. In fact, it isn’t just those two atoms that are
connected in a quantum way. Potentially every atom in the universe is connected
to every other atom in the universe. This is quantum entanglement. Everything
is “tangled” together. You could also think of it as a web of connectivity
between all matter.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>M</b>: That’s amazing that such a thing could be.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>B</b>: May, do you think the human condition is positive
and loving overall, or is it more negative and hate aligned overall?</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>M</b>: There is love in the world, Brian, but it seems
there is just more negativity and hate these days.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>B</b>: I agree, May. And we know how to make it better in
at least a limited way, correct? I mean by being positive and loving to those
we know.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>M</b>: Yes, it’s certainly better than the opposite.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>B</b>: I want to tell you though, May, that if you are
positive and act in harmony with love, you may have an effect on someone you
know, someone in North Korea, or even someone on the international space station.
Your thoughts, words and deeds <b>will</b> have an effect on someone because of
quantum entanglement. Your positivity and your loving actions <b>will</b> go
beyond your physical interactions with your contacts to potentially anywhere or
everywhere on Earth because all atoms are potentially entangled.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>M</b>: Well, I haven’t thought of it in just that way
before.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>B</b>: Would you agree that potentially, because I have a
positive and loving way of being in the world, that this might have a
beneficial effect on other people <b>far away</b> in the world due to quantum
entanglement?</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>M</b>: I would agree that potentially other people might
benefit from your positive attitude.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>B</b>: And if so, wouldn’t the world be a better place?</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>M</b>: Yes, it would.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>B</b>: What if I stayed in my house and didn’t see
anyone, but I was positive and had loving thoughts and speech, would other
people benefit from my positivity and love? Would the world be a better place
due to my solitary but loving ways?</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /> <b>M</b>: If we are quantumly entangled with other people,
then the other person would benefit and the world would be a better place.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>B</b>: Let’s look at some indications that quantum
entanglement might have something to do with mind or thought. One indication is
<b>mental telepathy</b>, the idea that ideas, images, or thoughts can be shared
between two minds. Quantum entanglement might be a good way to explain mental
telepathy. Another indication is <b>telekinesis</b>, that’s the idea that a
person can move or affect objects using thought. Again, quantum entanglement,
the idea that I might be entangled somehow with the ball I want to move with my
mind would provide a good explanation for telekinesis. Another indication of
quantum entanglement working in the world is <b>remote viewing</b>. That’s the
idea that a person could see what’s happening somewhere else in the world by
clearing his or her mind and focusing on that place and somehow seeing what is
happening in the room or area that he or she is concentrating on.<br /> <br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;">Another potential connection between thought and quantum
entanglement is <b>distance energy healing</b>. Whether it's reiki or some
other type of energy healing, quantum entanglement would seem to be the way for
that distance healing to work. And the last indication is sort of mental
telepathy but I wanted to mention it separately because most people have
experience with it. I’m talking about when you are <b>thinking about someone
and then you receive a phone call</b> from them or similarly you’re sitting in
a room and <b>“feeling” someone’s attention on you</b> or feeling that someone

like this and they would seem to be explained well by spooky action at a
distance.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><a name="_Hlk122963189"><b>M:</b></a> Maybe when multitudes
of people <b>pray together</b> is another indication of entanglement.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>B</b>: I agree. Praying together broadcasts positivity
and hope over our web of entanglement. Do you think that we have established a
connection between the mind and quantum entanglement?</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>M:</b> Many phenomena seem to be explained by it, yes.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>B</b>: So if I stay home and am solitary but I have a positive

with Atom A at a time do we? It might be one at a time it might be two, it
might be 100, 1000, or it might be entangled significantly with all of them. We
don’t know the mechanisms but we do know there is likely entanglement between
all atoms. And since we see the potential of the mind’s similar entanglement
with other minds or objects or human bodies, we don’t know to what extent our
attitude will entangle with other minds or things, but we do have good evidence
that it can. So, we may affect one person at a distance, or many, with our
attitude, correct?</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>M</b>: I would agree with that.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>B</b>: So if we want the world to change, to be more

positively and in ways aligned with love change the world to a more loving and
positive place?</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>M</b>: Yes, it would!</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>B</b>: Then as much as possible we should try to delete
negativity and hate from our actions, spoken words, and thoughts, and replace
them with positive and loving actions, spoken words, and thoughts, right?</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>M</b>: Yes, apparently having positive thoughts, words,

Don’t be a transmitter of negativity. Be a transmitter of positivity and the
human condition on this world will change, and the world will be a better place
to live because more people will be positive and loving.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /> Thanks for working through this with me, May. Sometimes
asking questions is the best way to get to the bottom of something.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br /><b>M</b>: Well, Brian, it was an exercise certainly worth

But Capitalism isn't married to Communism, it is controlled by it and tolerated by it because the CCP understands that if it is to have the power it needs to subjugate its people and threaten its neighbors, then it needs money. It learned well from the U.S.S.R.'s failure and its own early failures.

But there are some good reasons to use the Antminer S3 (if you can find one) for home mining. I know there are a few Antminer S3's still out there in 2022 and they needn't be in a closet or gathering spiderwebs in the basement. </span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: large; font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjGF5EvLdU8P5Z2U2VENhyk-mYGBCxvm0agFhhzg_qm1hXeZQJBEDtWxFRYTiDhSaHOeRFgPfsn24XIGi2u2KaGXxQJEe8QVym2pQziPlei0RHttzuxYRh11Gs6222xEZLIWh4wQIgg7ZC_1zYCqTZ1TOEbjUlCAfRaLsEOcipO96ecZLpimcr358gL=s3778" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2492" data-original-width="3778" height="264" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjGF5EvLdU8P5Z2U2VENhyk-mYGBCxvm0agFhhzg_qm1hXeZQJBEDtWxFRYTiDhSaHOeRFgPfsn24XIGi2u2KaGXxQJEe8QVym2pQziPlei0RHttzuxYRh11Gs6222xEZLIWh4wQIgg7ZC_1zYCqTZ1TOEbjUlCAfRaLsEOcipO96ecZLpimcr358gL=w400-h264" width="400" /></a></div></div><div style="text-align: left;"><div><ol style="text-align: left;"><li><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium; font-weight: normal;">It makes a great lottery miner. If you don't think 30 or 40 dollars per month is a lot to pay for lottery tickets, you could run the S3 for that much electricity (more or less depending where you live) and have the chance of winning 6.3 Bitcoin. The lowest underclock would cost around $15/mo. With this setup you don't have to drive to the convenience store all the time to buy lottery tickets. That said, solo mining for Bitcoin offers a very slim chance of solving a block, just as does a Powerball drawing offer a very slim chance of winning. You can also pool mine if you want to stack Sats. Additionally, you can mine for other SHA-256 coins which will have lower network difficulty levels and thus be "easier" to solve blocks for (i.e., Bitcoin Cash, Digibyte, XEC, and others).</span></li><li><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium; font-weight: normal;">The miner gives the house heat in the winter. So it serves the dual purpose of mining for SHA-256 coins and warming the house, thus reducing the work of the main heat system by whatever small amount. In summer you can underclock the S3 (if you're keeping it in the house) so that the heat it adds to a room is negligible.</span></li><li><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium; font-weight: normal;">The Antminer S3 is more powerful than USB stick miners and less hassle. </span></li><li><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium; font-weight: normal;">It is easy to make it quiet. If you are going to use a miner in the house it has to be reasonably quiet. This miner doesn't get as hot as an Antminer S7 or Antminer S9 or any of the other multiple terahash miners that exist these days. Since it doesn't get as hot, it doesn't need as vigorous a fan as the S3 originally came with. Replace the original fans with quiet PC case fans of the same size and with 4 pin connectors (~3000 RPM). Even at the highest hashrate these are more than enough for cooling the S3. Make sure your PSU is quiet as well.</span></li></ol></div><div><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium; font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium; font-weight: normal;">The testing data below is going to be frustrating for people with Antminer S3's that have all the chips available for hashing. My S3 doesn't, so I had to do the testing with 24 working chips when there are usually 32. I really did this testing for myself. Still, you may be able to glean some useful information from this testing, such as wattage differences between settings and hashrate differences from low clock speed to high. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium; font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium; font-weight: normal;">Testing was done using the firmware version "Fri Jan 9 20:41:34 CST 2015". This version of firmware has the ability to adjust clock speed (Frequency) and voltage. However, my testing and the testing of other miners has concluded that the voltage setting in the firmware doesn't do anything, or much of anything at all. If you want to adjust voltages, getting a power supply (PSU) that has adjustable output voltages is your best bet. In my testing the only thing that made a difference was changing the clock speed.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium; font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium; font-weight: normal;">Different clock speeds often caused 1 or 2 chips to display an X in the miner's interface which means they aren't hashing. This causes a lower hashrate and lower wattages. Sometimes a reboot at that clock speed would help those chips, sometimes not. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium; font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium; font-weight: normal;">Fan speeds were affected by clock speed, hashrate, and by the HVAC heat coming on in the room, but you can see in the chart that lower clock speeds result in lower fan speeds and thus quieter miners.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium; font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium; font-weight: normal;">Hardware errors were never much more than 0.01%, but when they were <u>under that</u> I noted it as low hardware errors in the chart (LHWE).

Have you ever gone on vacation and not watched the evening news, read a paper, or checked the news feed on your phone even once? The news of the world still happened while you didn't read, listen to, or check it and not knowing the news during these short times likely didn't affect your life negatively at all. In fact, your weekend or vacation was better, it was more enjoyable because your consciousness wasn't impacted by negativity that you have no control over and can do nothing about. You were able to live in the moment of your weekend or vacation with your loved ones and enjoy some quality time.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br />For example, what would you have done (mid-weekend) if you knew about the fire in Paris? What action would you have taken had you known about the kidnapping of the Algerian ambassador? The fiery argument in Congress would have had an effect on your mood and your psyche but other than that...nothing.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br />Now imagine taking this news-free weekend and extending it to one month or six months or even indefinitely. Imagine the vacation for your brain, mind and soul. Imagine the improvement in your mood and outlook and possibly even your health!</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br />And not to worry, if you need to know something it will get to you if it is so important. Friends, relatives, or Google will somehow let you know what you need to know. But other than that, life is much better without news, my friends. You can worry about the things that truly impact your life and family, things happening in your neighborhood, at your school or church, in your town. These are the areas where you can have an impact, where you can act and react in love.</span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;"><br />Try the news-free vacation (include Twitter and Facebook feeds as well because they are full of "news" you don't need to know) and see if you don't feel better. Not only will you feel better, but you will have more time to do things in your life that you enjoy. Carpe diem!</span></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8024831227324551114.post-34335126547939217592021-07-06T16:49:00.000-04:002021-07-06T16:49:36.203-04:00When a new century or millenium actually begins<div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSrdPkF4SWod-8HFm2BQ4rI1te8unk6pBYmjhJOoybTCifnnQ37xy6btiGlhn_rgVHLxDCIveSp_Pfyc9WzQHKvp3eO4cRP5uKN_l8tYZRtT2YytnECmDyqGfXd3oiV1vSL1MVBGqo03M/s900/millenium.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="670" data-original-width="900" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhSrdPkF4SWod-8HFm2BQ4rI1te8unk6pBYmjhJOoybTCifnnQ37xy6btiGlhn_rgVHLxDCIveSp_Pfyc9WzQHKvp3eO4cRP5uKN_l8tYZRtT2YytnECmDyqGfXd3oiV1vSL1MVBGqo03M/s320/millenium.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /> </span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="font-size: medium;">New centuries, new milleniums...</span></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="font-size: medium;">Once and for all, follow the logic back to day 1.<br /><br />A century is equal to 100 years, no more or less.

That is, the moment the year turns to 100 is the beginning of the new century (2nd). In the same vein, the moment that 2000 began was the beginning of a new century and a new millenium (not the year 2001 as some people believe).<br /><br />year 100 is the 101st year<br />year 1000 is the 1001st year<br />year 2000 is the 2001st year<br />year 2020 is the 2021st year<br /><br />The new decade starts at the beginning of the n0 year<br />The new century starts at the beginning of the n00 year<br />The new millenium starts at the beginning of the n000 year<br /><br />Hopefully this ends the debate as to when decades, centuries and milleniums begin.<br /><br />Happy 21st century!</span></span></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8024831227324551114.post-48219341066421932552021-06-21T10:56:00.004-04:002021-06-21T12:59:59.200-04:00Bitcoin Since 2015 Chart<div style="text-align: left;"> <table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrGo-3gXfD0jRJkSUqp_fzruFZHgTAkjLCy-W4b4nGTIuqtc0EXdarRoqjo6hXHc243lyz57EJQQn5YXKEDP2mNW0a1-xh8rqL1PN4dGslQDWXisu8xhzhNWRoi7UEIQjcYvznPmqrqTY/s601/Bitcoin+chart.JPG" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img alt="Bitcoin price chart" border="0" data-original-height="363" data-original-width="601" height="241" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjrGo-3gXfD0jRJkSUqp_fzruFZHgTAkjLCy-W4b4nGTIuqtc0EXdarRoqjo6hXHc243lyz57EJQQn5YXKEDP2mNW0a1-xh8rqL1PN4dGslQDWXisu8xhzhNWRoi7UEIQjcYvznPmqrqTY/w400-h241/Bitcoin+chart.JPG" title="Click to enlarge" width="400" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: xx-small;">Click to enlarge</span><br /></td></tr></tbody></table><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;"> </div><div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="font-size: medium;">If anyone is worried about the price of Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies in this current bearish atmosphere let this chart reassure you about Bitcoin price direction.

Because it is an asset and viewed by more and more people as a safe haven asset, it makes sense that its price would be high and track higher (due to limited supply). But if you look at most other cryptocurrencies you'll see that they were not created to be investments, they were created to be useable currencies for one function or another. BAT is a currency used by the Brave browser, LBRY coins are used on the video streaming site LBRY and Odysee, Filecoin is used in the Filecoin distributed storage ecosystem, and there are many more examples. </span></span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Bitcoin Cash, Dash, Monero, Nano, and Digibyte are cryptocurrencies which are meant to enable cheap and fast transactions person to person, they are not intended as investment vehicles and do not need to be priced at hundreds of dollars per coin to work well. As an example, look at Digibyte which is $0.08 per coin today and functions well as a person to person payment option. </span></span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br />Monero will function just as well as Digibyte as a payment option but the price of one Monero is $267 per coin today. The higher price is a function of the relative scarcity of the coin and the increased amount of usage which Monero has. But, the bottom line is that it will cost you about the same to send $20 with either coin, almost nothing, and transact just as quickly. So as far as usability is concerned, it doesn't matter what the price of a cryptocurrency is, you can still get 20 bucks worth of whatever coin you want to use and send it to your friends.<br /><br />My point is, don't disregard the usability of a cryptocurrency based on low price and don't give too much regard to a cryptocurrency's usefulness based on a high price. </span></span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"> </span></span></p><p><span><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span class="no-wrap" data-coin-id="1" data-coin-symbol="btc" data-price-btc="1.0" data-price-previous="38445.266" data-target="price.price">Check out: <i>The Essential Guide to Bitcoin Mining: A Cryptocurrency Tutorial</i></span></span></span></p><p><span><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span class="no-wrap" data-coin-id="1" data-coin-symbol="btc" data-price-btc="1.0" data-price-previous="38445.266" data-target="price.price"><i><a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/1791777384" target="_blank">Paperback</a>, <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07LDX9MSF" target="_blank">Kindle</a>, <a href="https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-essential-guide-to-bitcoin-mining-brian-holmes/1130015786;jsessionid=5CFF3E24DBD428F7D9199E92D4E52139.prodny_store02-atgap12?ean=2940161409978" target="_blank">Nook</a>, <a href="https://www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/the-essential-guide-to-bitcoin-mining" target="_blank">Kobo</a>, <a href="https://play.google.com/store/books/details?id=mp5_DwAAQBAJ" target="_blank">Google Play</a></i></span></span></span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"> </span></span></p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8024831227324551114.post-62515345746238402942021-04-02T23:18:00.005-04:002021-04-03T11:15:37.616-04:00Baseball shoots itself in foot. <div style="text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: verdana; font-size: medium;">And to think I was 5 minutes away from subscribing to MLB Season Pass for 2021.

But </span><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">network difficulty </span></span>doesn't just make it more difficult just for you, it makes it more difficult for everyone equally over the network. Over time rising difficulty has had the effect of obsoleting many generations of Bitcoin mining machines. The reason for this obsolescence is not that the machines no longer work but that they become much too expensive to run in terms of energy costs per Bitcoin retrieved. If you had free energy, then any Bitcoin miner can contribute shares to a pool and rake in some free Bitcoin, but not many people have access to free energy.<br /><br />Bitcoin network difficulty also has the effect, when solo mining, of making it nearly impossible for older Bitcoin mining machines to ever solve a Bitcoin block except in a lottery-like fashion where 1-in-a-billion may do so. Even for the latest generation Bitcoin miners, solo mining a Bitcoin block is difficult because of the hundreds of thousands of late model Bitcoin mining machines competing at the same time to solve a block. But if you hope to solve a block while solo mining for Bitcoin you had better have the latest machines with the latest chips or you are just playing the lottery.<br /><br />Bitcoin network difficulty affects pool mining a little bit differently. When you are mining in a pool, your Bitcoin mining machines never (!) have to solve a block to get paid, they just have to contribute shares to the mining that is going on at the pool. The more shares your miner contributes, the more share of the reward you get when someone in the mining pool solves the block. So to look at it simplistically, if there are 100 miners in the pool and they are all mining at the same rate, each miner will get paid the same amount when one of the miners solves a block. The network difficulty is not going to lower your share or the payout as long as someone in the pool can still solve a block. An increased network difficulty will make it more difficult to solve a block, yes, but it is more difficult for everyone at EVERY mining pool. Again, this favors (or biases) Bitcoin block production towards the newest, fastest Bitcoin miners. So, if you have a pool with 10,000 terahash of mining power and they are all Antminer S9s and you have a pool with 10,000 terahash of Antminer S19s, the pool with the S19s is going to solve most of the blocks because those are the latest/fastest miners. You can check <a href="https://blockchair.com/bitcoin/charts/hashrate-distribution">blockchair.com</a> and see which mining pools are solving the most blocks and assume that they are composed of the latest machines. If you want more frequent payouts you could sign up to mine with that pool. More frequent payouts will probaby result in smaller payouts. More hashpower and more miners on a pool result in smaller payouts.<br /><br />So in conclusion, <a href="https://bitinfocharts.com/comparison/bitcoin-difficulty.html#3m" target="_blank">Bitcoin network difficulty</a> will result in less chances of solving a block when solo mining but have little effect when you are mining in a pool since everyone is subject to the mining difficulty increase. Also, don't mine at a pool where all the miners are using older equipment because they will find blocks much less frequently.</span></span><p></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Happy mining, happy HODLing.</span></span></p><p><span><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span class="no-wrap" data-coin-id="1" data-coin-symbol="btc" data-price-btc="1.0" data-price-previous="38445.266" data-target="price.price">Check out: <i>The Essential Guide to Bitcoin Mining: A Cryptocurrency Tutorial</i></span></span></span></p><p><span><span style="font-family: verdana;"><span class="no-wrap" data-coin-id="1" data-coin-symbol="btc" data-price-btc="1.0" data-price-previous="38445.266" data-target="price.price"><i><a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/1791777384" target="_blank">Paperback</a>, <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07LDX9MSF" target="_blank">Kindle</a>, <a href="https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/the-essential-guide-to-bitcoin-mining-brian-holmes/1130015786;jsessionid=5CFF3E24DBD428F7D9199E92D4E52139.prodny_store02-atgap12?ean=2940161409978" target="_blank">Nook</a>, <a href="https://www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/the-essential-guide-to-bitcoin-mining" target="_blank">Kobo</a>, <a href="https://play.google.com/store/books/details?id=mp5_DwAAQBAJ" target="_blank">Google Play</a></i></span></span></span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"> </span></span></p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8024831227324551114.post-38352145429943439592021-02-17T14:27:00.002-05:002021-02-17T14:32:16.513-05:00Rush Passes February 17, 2021<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: verdana;"></span></span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: verdana;">Rush Limbaugh has passed on February 17, 2021 from lung cancer.
