Title: Miner can't pick up/accept any shares
Post by: RunarVM on May 09, 2015, 08:32:13 PM
Hey guys

I've been googling all day long, and no luck.
My miner cannot accept any shares because of 'Low difficulty'.
Like this:

When my miner tells me that it sets difficulty to 1, I would like to set it up to 16 or something like that.
So my friend told me that I cannot change the difficulty in the bat file, I had to visit my pool's website to change it.
Unfortunately, I cannot change the difficulty. It's locked at 0.00

So I really REALLY would appreciate your help guys  ;D

I'm trying to mine Ultracoin btw.

Thanks
Regards

i'm using Minerd (CPU mining), the reason I mine with CPU is that I use windows Azure to cloud mining 24/7.

It haven't worked for me before, so this is the first time im trying to mine Ultracoin (Scrypt).

Not sure what algorithm is, but I see that word is mentioned in the miner, so I suppose my miner has something to do with algorithm.

Nope, the miner says 'unknown algorithm -- 'scrypt-jane'

I mine Ultracoin from time to time, here is my command line:

Quote
minerd.exe -a scrypt-jane -o stratum+tcp://stratum.tumblingblock.com:3333 -u Chernobyl_Exports.cpub2 -p x --nfmin=4 --nfmax=16

You must make sure that the version of minerd that you're using can do the scrypt-jane algorithm.

To check it:

Quote
minerd.exe -h

Happy mining  ;D
