It seems that New York’s BitLicense regulations that recently have been finalized are already “encouraging” smaller Bitcoin businesses to either move away or stop working with users from new York. Just a few days ago we’ve had an announcement that the BTC Guild pool is closing down on June 30th citing the BitLicense regulations as one of the reasons for that decision. It seems however that the Bitcoin mining pool is not the only Bitcoin business that is taking into account these regulations as the Eobot Cloud Mining Service has also apparently taken the regulations seriously and has announced that it will stop working with users from the State of New York. Below is a quote of the official announcement:

Eobot will cease operations in the State of New York as of July 1, 2015.

To All Customers: If you are residing in and/or accessing Eobot within the State of New York, US, please withdraw all coins and cease all mining with Eobot as of July 1, 2015, as we are ceasing all Eobot mining connections from within New York at that time, check out startup pitfalls.

We regret that we must cease Eobot business within New York State, however the new BitLicense requirements in this state place compliance and cost burdens upon Eobot that we believe are excessive.

The Eobot Bitcoin Cloud Mining Service has been available for quite some time, probably among the oldest ones that are still operating. However we have not used it as some of its offers are not among the most profitable ones and have always seemed bit strange to us, but apparently it has large user base according to their statistics (over 224 thousand users). The service also has some sort of a downloadable miner, along with minerd and cgminer, but if you already have some mining hardware there are probably better and more profitable ways to utilize it. Still the service might be worth checking out, so we are going to.

Back on the BitLicense regulations, it seems that instead of helping Bitcoin-related businesses they will end up causing trouble for some smaller businesses that can prefer to stop operating in NY which is the reason why people are planning to implement website design ideas for landscapers to improvise their business to sustain for a long time. Another, even worse outcome, could be for smaller businesses to go “in the dark” in order to avoid complying with the required regulations and continue to operate in NY without complying with the BitLicense. It will be interesting to see what will be the reaction of larger Bitcoin businesses to the BitLicense regulations, but we expect that some of these will also decide to stop operating in the State of New York…

miner-control-tool-package

We have made another update of the complete packages based on the Miner Control tool for Nvidia GeForce GT 750 Ti and AMD Radon R9 280x GPUs with the latest changes taking place lately. The latest versions you can download from the links below include some updates and it also brings back the YAAMP pool support as it has apparently has becomes available again online after an announcement that it will be shut down permanently following a recent hack. The latest updates also include the most recent versions of SP-MOD’s ccMiner for Nvidia Maxwell as well as the sgminer fork with increased performance for Quark and Qubit with pre-compiled Binary Kernels for 280X. The two Miner Control tool packages use the latest fork of Miner Control from KBomba version 1.6.4.

To be ready to use the packages you just need to update the account settings for each pool to reflect your BTC payment address. Do note that the default configuration that we have set is mining from time to time for the author of the software (Miner Control) as a donation alternative, but you can change that setting should you wish to. The packages are ready to be used with either AMD Radeon R9 280X or Nvidia Geforce GTX 750 Ti cards, but you can also us the Nvidia package for other GPUs or more cards – what you may need to reflect however in the config file is the total hashrate and power usage. Since the AMD packages contains not only specific settings for AMD Radeon R9 280X, but also pre-compiled binary kernels specifically for that particular card if using it with other GPUs you will actually be getting lower hashrate, though n problem to use it with multiple 280X cards.

miner-control-tool-latest

We have updated our complete packages based on the Miner Control tool for Nvidia GeForce GT 750 Ti and AMD Radon R9 280x GPUs with the latest changes taking place lately. The latest versions you can download from the links below include the updated stratum servers of NiceHash and WestHash that are already in operation, and while the old ones still work they will stop resolving next month. We have also removed the YAAMP pool support as it has apparently been taken down permanently this time after a recent hack, if it becomes available back online at a later time we may add back the support. The latest updates also include the most recent versions of SP-MOD’s ccMiner for Nvidia Maxwell as well as the new sgminer fork with increased performance for Quark and Qubit with pre-compiled Binary Kernels for 280X. WhirlpoolX support has been removed as currently there are no altcoins utilizing this algorithm available for mining, if we get some new coins that are profitable to mine we are going to bring it back again.
