Can I take back my profitability comment?  Coinwarz says btc is profitable at these prices and 10 cents/kwh, so depending on your inputs... I can't operate a mining rig here cheaper than I can rent one.

But the miners are just 11 days, 10 hours away from losing 1/2 of their income. That will be interesting to watch.

I'm curious to see you dump this 300 TH onto the network so I can see if that has some sort of effect on buying/selling pressure in relation to diff increasing and network interest. Also, you should get these blocks moving just a tiny bit faster.

Funny story. I'd been waiting on Bittrex to verify my account for 48-72 hours. I then realized I should email them, that it was going to fail. I knew that they could not verify my address through any form of public record, I'm "off the grid" currently. Once I emailed them and told them this, they IMMEDIATELY or somehow very coincidentally minutes later denied my basic account. I explained "I've moved from where you can publicly obtain record of my home address."
A minute later, I said fuck it. Gave them my old address. My account was verified instantaneously. Pretty telling, to me, on what they are using for KYC address verification methods.

Oh no! I hope you weren't paying to mine for the past 3-4 hours without accomplishing anything.

Almost up to 100 TH.   It takes a while for the network avg to rise up. I'm sure it's already over 200 but isn't responding to the estimate quite yet.

Nice to see. It's helping me move some coins around a bit faster.

EDIT: Well, it was about 92 TH and now dropping a bit.

These rental aren't hashing as advertised. I'm only getting about 100 ths out of the pair them. I've tried different pools.  Some rentals hash better than others. MRR will refund the difference if it doesn't hit the promised hash.  But difficulty has raised about 1.5 million since I began.

The only way to reset that passphrase, is for you to remember it, enter it, and change it to something else. That's the deal with real cryptocurrencies such as Unobtanium and Bitcoin. It's all about the crypto. But once you forget it, those are gone. I'm sorry to hear that.

This is a service that might help:

note: I do not vouch for Dave, but he seems to have a following... Sorry for your loss

so the next trick is getting at that 'master record';
above my pay grade.

i would keep the files saved, just in case, likely solution would be to buy a password cracking program, that you tune to what you think your password might be, also in the future some simplified recovery might be possible (trust wise) granted a nonsecure password.  

currently SOoL
unless you've jotted down the privkey somewhere?

But trying to get hold of the company's financials and other relevant paperwork has been tougher. "Typically in a financial institution, you have books and records about who your depositors are," Sallah says. "It was at least not that."

Sallah says he's now come to the same conclusion Silver has reached about Big Vern's story.

"You do the math," Sallah says. "If you think someone hacked in, why would he have written that kind of confessional letter, posted it, and moved to China?... If it's not corporate looting, it's at least extreme corporate malfeasance."

300k LTC went missing with cryptsy. Maybe that's why it doesn't look so good?
