Title: Etherum Mining help Post by: swagkiller69 on March 04, 2016, 11:49:56 AM Hi guys, I have been trying to get my ETH miner working for a while now-
So I was trying to follow nicehash's guide on the setup, but here's what's got me: Connection settings for ethminer using NVIDIA GPUs ethminer.exe -U -F http://ethereum.LOCATION.nicehash.com:3500/n1c3-YOUR-BITCOIN-ADDRESS.WORKER-NAME/WORKER-SPEED I have ethminer and I have done a benchmark to get my speed Code: Found suitable CUDA device [GeForce GTX 770M] with 3221225472 bytes of GPU memor Thanks Title: Re: Etherum Mining help Post by: Fademigo on March 04, 2016, 01:37:00 PM Does NIcehash support Ethereum mining?
I do not see it there: https://www.nicehash.com/index.jsp?p=gstarted Title: Re: Etherum Mining help Post by: swagkiller69 on March 04, 2016, 04:45:01 PM Does NIcehash support Ethereum mining? Here you go :)I do not see it there: https://www.nicehash.com/index.jsp?p=gstarted https://www.nicehash.com/index.jsp?p=software#eth Title: Re: Etherum Mining help Post by: Casalania on March 04, 2016, 06:08:19 PM It seems the rig rental price in Nicehash is quite low. It is better to mine directly and do not rent out there.

I think this is correct, I just checked their pages and I can't find anywhere to rent the eth mining power.. Shame because they're sitting at a nice 15GH/s Title: Re: Etherum Mining help Post by: apriyoni on March 05, 2016, 08:02:48 PM It seems the rig rental price in Nicehash is quite low.

If that is true, they are ripping miner off. Their rate is 60% of the rate you get if you mine at another pool. it ruined its reputation. Title: Re: Etherum Mining help Post by: Eliovp on March 05, 2016, 08:19:21 PM Yeah it's all true, and they do get that hash rate because a lot of miners are to lazy to go and sell their eth themselves.
It's easy, you mine and get payed in btc. That's why it's popular. And in a way that is understandable.

It's easy, you mine and get payed in btc. That's why it's popular. And in a way that is understandable. and the rate is not 60%. i typed in my hash on a calculator, mined NH for 24 hours and got almost the same amount of btc the calc said i should get.. they do charge a 2 or 3% fee.

Why would I sell my ETH for BTC at current market? I just don't get it. I mean, I understand ETH for fiat but for BTC?

I mean, I understand ETH for fiat but for BTC? why not.. its a good profit and im going to mine eth for a month on my 4 270x's and buy a 390x with the btc.

Considering you are still using checks that might be the case. Withdrawal cost to EUR is flat 9 cents. Normally takes 4-12 hours.

Ok, I didn't know it is that much regulated there. If I want to stay anonymous I normally use xmr.to -EDIT- Or Bitcoin ATM Title: Re: Etherum Mining help Post by: Ayers on March 06, 2016, 08:25:17 AM Yeah it's all true, and they do get that hash rate because a lot of miners are to lazy to go and sell their eth themselves.

I mean, I understand ETH for fiat but for BTC? because bitcoin is stronger, more accepted more mined(backed more with electricity power) is the first one, ethereum as a currency is just a clone Title: Re: Etherum Mining help Post by: Simpan on March 06, 2016, 08:56:48 AM To me BTC looks like a falling knife.

But the block size problem to be solved with hard fork to 2MB will only happen in the middle of next year. Long wait.

But the block size problem to be solved with hard fork to 2MB will only happen in the middle of next year. Long wait. the only problem with the block size is antpool is throwing out so many empty blocks. http://bitblk.com/bitcoin/pool/AntPool/ its seriously kind of like saying the freeway is too slow, lets double the speed limit. yet all the cars in the fast lane are only going 35 MPH.

After the block halving, It will be less profitable to just get the 12.5 block rewards, it has to include many transactions.
