[ANN] Mining on Amazon Cloud
-
@crusty That is awesome ! @gpedro have mentioned this to me. It took me some time to figure out the best setup for the cloud and how to maximize reading speeds. When I started, reads were at 1.2 mb/s. It made it viable at speeds of 160mb/s as it was faster then my 4TB HDD.
-
@Njcfamily31907 You are correct and I forgot to mentioned this. I will update. As you said, we have to put credit card in advance! glad you have it in the US as well. Actually is cheaper in the US then in the UK. Although the £ may go even lower against the $ ;-)
-
@CoinBuster Question for you, have you had multiple uploads from different IP's yet? Simultaneously?
-
@crutsy I am trying it as we speak. Its working great. I am uploading from two computers. I have plotted, optimized and uploaded 550GB in less then 5 hours.
-
@CoinBuster So how would this work? I would give you my amazon password?
-
@crutsy Yes. I will have to access the account the upload the file directly. Sorry for not mentioning it on the Q&A, I will update.
-
@CoinBuster Do you plan to ID verify with @haitch ?
-
-
@CoinBuster ok I will give it a go!
I'll take 5TB worth. How would you like to start?
I'll put down 2000 Burst for the first TB once that is finished and working I will send the other 8000 sound good?
-
@crutsy sounds great. I need you to prepare you numeric account ID. The stagger size is 200000 nonce. Please let me know the starting nonce and it will increase in 200000 increments.
-
@CoinBuster Whats the address you want to be paid at? I will send an encrypted message with the 2000 burst and all the info needed.
-
@crutsy account BURST-BV7C-BAGG-AREA-4BKRX. I will set the upload to start tomorrow at 7pm GMT.

I am plotting directly to the ACD right now this is the command that i am running on the gpuplotter
gpuPlotGenerator-bin-win-x64-4.0.3>gpuPlotGenerator generate direct d:/plots/3205824596068173992_24166417_14925824_4096 d:/plots/3205824596068173992_39092242_14925824_4096 d:/plots/3205824596068173992_54018067_14925824_4096 d:/plots/3205824596068173992_68943891_14925824_4096
and then i have my mac running a plotter with this command directly to the ACD
./plot -x 1 -k 3205824596068173992 -d /Volumes/D/plots -s 83869716 -n 14925824 -m 16384 -t 8

@Njcfamily31907 Good luck buddy. Is this your first time plotting directly to ACD ? When I tried it, it had to upload the files and got stuck. let me know how it goes.
-
i suspect it got stuck due to a timeout issue my ping time to the acd is like 16 - 20 ms i also have a 110mb/s - 140mb/s download and 5mb/s - 8mb/s upload connection
-
@CoinBuster message sent
@Njcfamily31907 Yeah bro I would deff look at @gpedro tutorial. We have figured out a lot to help you there. You are going to want to optimize for sure. Direct plotting never worked great at all.
-
you do realize it says unlimited but you only actually get 100TB of space
-
@Njcfamily31907 yes they have to assign a numeric number to the drive unless mounting the drive will be impossible.
-
I don't think anyone could possibly cloud mine 100TB lol
-
@crutsy With the AWS or some similar service in google i think it's possible... I just found out about this today because coinbuster talked me about this service?! I've watched it before but i just thought that was just too expensive but now i understand better how it works and it's something really great, althought i still think that there is better ways of doing it?! It's a really expensive service but it can work and i really think that with a lot of investment you can even mine a bunch of hundreds of TB's althought the costs are high and the investment have to be significant?!
@CoinBuster i now understand what you meant for offering it as a service because i didn't saw this post before LOL
I have a glitch of a business plan for you to turn it into an asset while you have this store at the same time and i think that with some investment you can even get more plotting and upload power... Like i said to you i don't have the investment for this but i am happy to help with whatever i can... I found a AWS calculator and i get now how they work so i have to talk with you about that... So when you are in here let me know and we will talk better about this?!@Njcfamily31907 don't ever plot directally into a cloud, even if it works it will take so much time man?! It's better to plot locally then upload it! And idk if it is only 100Tb, when you mount the clouds depending on the WebDAV they use, they can say 100Tb in there... I have a 40Gb cloud mounted that says 100Tb in there but it won't let me upload more than 40GB ofc?!
