Antshares Update - Up 80% in the past 2 months

In my June 28th post "Ants in the Pants - Jumping the gun with my NEOs coin purchase" I touched on why I like Antshares (ANT).  As a quick review here, Antshares can be looked at as a Chinese version of Ethereum (ETH).  Antshares has the addtional benefit of paying dividends in the form of Antcoins (ANC).

At the time, ANT was trading at about 0.0018 BTC, or about $7.50 per share.  As of today, ANT is trading at 0.0042, or about $13.50 per share.  That's an 80% increase in about 20 months, nothing to shake a stick at.  But, I see ANT potentially trading at close to the ETH price, which right now is $250 per coin.  ETH has been trading as high as $400 per coin in mid June.

If ANT were to approach those prices, that's at least a 20-fold increase over it's current price. Needless to say, ANT remains one of my favorite ALT coins in terms of "Home Run" potential.

Note: ANT doesn't trade on Poloniex but it does trade on Bittrex.  Also check out my earlier blog entry because it talks about ANT's pending name change.

    NEO, or AntShares as most people still know it as, is an open-source blockchain platform fully developed.The company has its own currency, which is found on most exchanges as ANS -the switch to NEO will happen later this year- and seems to be doing well. This upcoming rebrand from Antshares to NEO is part of a bigger move to put blockchain technology in spotlight.

Etherum on the Move...

Artwork by Steven Grundy What, more Crypto talk? Yes, sorry, more crypto talk, but I'll try to keep it short. Back on July 16th I said that I thought the bear market had ended that day and we were starting a new bull market. Only time will tell if I was right because we haven't had enough time to call it a bear market. But, in that time, Ethereum, the bellwether coin that we measure with, is already more than 50% from that date and 120%+ since June 16th (2022). There are a lot of coins that did better than that, but for a "safe" bet like Ethereum, that's a really nice move. But, it's not too late. Ethereum makes a change on September 26th that will dramatically improve it's capabilities. I think we are going to fairly quickly see ETH return it, and pass it's all time high of $4891.70, maybe even before the end of the year. Now there is always the chance that ETH, and all coins, will turn around and head back down for a test of the low of $876.54....

Troubleshooting a Discourse Update on DigitalOcean: Resolving Unresolvable Errors

For the past three years, I've maintained a Discourse server on a DigitalOcean Droplet. Recently, I decided to update it with some of the latest Discourse features. What I anticipated to be a straightforward update process turned into several days of frustrating setbacks. The version of Discourse I was running was already three years old, so I assumed that running the built-in "Update" feature would suffice. However, after clicking the update button, the progress bar sluggishly crawled forward over the next half hour, only to display the dreaded message: "Error – Update Failed." The logs provided little to no help, but based on my experience with other software updates via GIT, I suspected that the failure might be due to the repository head still being called "Master." In recent years, there has been a shift away from using "Master" as the repository head, with "Main" becoming the preferred term. Despite trying several methods ...

Antiminer S7 Issues and Diagnostics steps

Note, the instructions below are how I diagnosed the problem I describe.  I'm providing it here in case these steps help you narrow down your issue somewhere along the way. I have an Antminer S7 (batch 8) unit that has been giving me problems.  It worked fine for a week or so then started slowing down.  I could hear the fan slowing down and speeding up and if I checked the web GUI of the unit I could see that “chains” 1 and 3 often had very cool temperatures, as if they weren’t even running. It would then try to get those engaged again and it would speed up and then the cycle would repeat.  Eventually, over time, I’d get a high piercing alarm sound and at that point if I checked the GUI I’d see Xs in the ASIC display instead of Os (image below). Above is how it was typically running.  After a while an alarm would sound and it would look like below: PSU: The first things I tried were to swap power supplies with a working unit.  It’s...
