WhereToMine.com (http://WhereToMine.com) is a mining profitability site to show which coin will bring the most return for your sha and scrypt hashing speeds.

Select your currency, enter your hash speed(s), and click calculate.

The site also lists out resources and many pools.

This thread is for talking about the site, what to add to it, etc.

OOH, I'm mentioned on CoinDesk.com: http://www.coindesk.com/wheretomine-highlights-rich-deposits/

The site gathers data from www.coinchoose.com, www.dustcoin.com/mining, and www.cryptsy.com

If you like the site and find it helpful PLEASE DONATE!!!

Enjoy!

+1, great looking site

*edit*
Sorry, something doesn't look right. It says my 1100KH/s, can make $14.00 per day, mining WDC. I don't think that's right, that makes it ~250% more profitable then BTC...

Thanks!

very nice site, will you be adding per month/per hour aswell as per day?

changing the currency symbol in the headings when using the currency selector would also be a nice touch

Nice, good job!

Very nice site!

Will do! Noted.  Thanks for the feedback

OMG,OMG,OMG.. Some of my poolz are listed!!

First page ^_^ I win one BMC.

Nice looking site bookmarked  :)

this is correct, although its only based on the low difficulty +price and not the large number of orphans and endless new blocks

Thanks!

Ah, I see, WDC's diff is off

Yeah, anyone know where I can get data for stales, % efficiency, etc so that I can take that into account?

It's kinda per user/pool.

No man, I mean, WDC Diff is 3.26811821. You site says its 0.91833303

oh, I see that.... hmm.. I'm getting that one from coinchoose.com ... anyone know of other API sources I can grab wdc from?

Pools doesn't say that. http://www.worldcoinpool.com/ ,http://wdc.allpoolz.com/

oh yeah, they show it as 0.91833303 too

Sorry man, my bad, coinchoose was wrong, not your site

No worries, I let them know that it seemed off.

By the way cool site! thanks to you i found which currency i should farm

He said "when I do a "worldcoind getdifficulty" - it shows 0.91833303.  Was there a fork?" ... um, that's over my head, what should I write back!? lol

Thanks!  Glad you find it helpful!

Is the block count right on my site (86062)?  As kevin mentions, my daemon is still reporting that difficulty, but I can't find a public block explorer to validate. 

Looks like the pools now report my difficulty - so I was just a little quicker to show the right numbers :)

Thanks for the quick response on this!

you should add www.multipool.in to the pools list, it seems really well run and easy to redirect my miners to mine different coins, just have to change the port my stratum proxy server points to...

Very nice site Kevin! Good job. I look forward to seeing it evolve.

Good job, I like how the 'interface' works (the sorting and such)

Thanks! ... me too! :)

Thanks!  I'll add WorldCoinforum.org to the forums section too.

Great job. Nice looking, simple and light weight! i like it!

Thanks!

Woot! great site thanks, and it's nice to see TRC at the top of the list, for today atleast...

I just added a few more pools by request.

Thanks everyone for the feedback!

... added:
  week and day earnings
  even more pools
  lined up the resources columns

Enjoy!

very nice & useful site, it does seem to be way more accurate for amount of coins generated than the others, bookmarked it for future use :)

Glad you found it helpful!

This is a great site. I would like it if you added % profitability vs mining BTC.

I like this site as it offers something more than the other sites (including mine).  Once we get into these percentage calcs, then it just becomes a clone :)

I agree, I don't think you would need to take anything else away to implement this, I just meant to add it as new column to sort by as it is something that at least I am accustomed to and like seeing (not that you should just cater to my needs). I personally think this site is better than most of the other ones (no offence to coinchoose  ;D)

Also one more little thing the link at the bottom of the page to cryptsy points to https://www.cryptsy.comg/  :P

None taken - mine is more for programmers who want the API and those who like charts.  This site fills a different need :)

Although your Litecoin-Based Profitability is pretty baller  ;)

ha! Thanks for pointing that out... fixed now.

No problem  :) Those are my favorite errors when coding, adding an extra character or missing just one.

a few more pools added .... hmm, I'm thinking I should probably start branching these areas onto separate pages.  They are getting a bit lengthy.

added even more pools... oh my, this list is getting long

Just added a "What's it worth?" section where you can enter the # of coins you have and it will give you the current dollar amount of what those coins are worrth.

oh, and added a couple more pools.

Enjoy!

great feature, could you add its BTC worth also?

You should be able to select btc from the drop down. Is that not working for you?

Site has now been tested to work on mobile devices

Thank you very much for providing such a great service! Always wanted to have something like that, even for my lowly low-hashing card :)

Thanks! Glad you find it helpful!

ok i worked out i have to use the dropdown at the top to change the calculator output at the bottom... not ideal, but there is no BTC option in that menu either

I just added some sparklines to show vs. BTC history.  Let me know what you think!

Nice feature! Hope you will keep on doing great job, THX.

Thanks!

I just added an average increase / decrease to the sparklines on www.WhereToMine.com .  This should help indicate if that coin is gaining or losing value.
Enjoy!

Can u add memecoin please.

FYI - added to CoinChoose - hence in the API.  So, go at it, Kevin! :)

Got it!  Thanks Sal!

oh, and just about to build my first rig! I just got my 7950 and I'm picking up a new PSU today too.  Hopefully, I'll have it all up and running tonight!!!

very nice site thanks for your effort

Thankyou good sir.

you bet! Glad you find it helpful!

nice, btw the 0 isnt cleared when clicking the hash rate input box and the Name header background on Pools looks odd

+1 thx!

you are welcome!

thanks for the feedback, yeah, I noticed that today. Will fix soon.

The pools header should be displaying properly now.

yes that looks fixed now

I just added an Avg % Change column which shows the historical average change.  This is good for sorting by what is historically increasing/decreasing vs BTC

Enjoy!

oh hey cool! I just got mentioned on CoinDesk.com!! http://www.coindesk.com/wheretomine-highlights-rich-deposits/

exellent, finally i have an idea what coin its more profitable for me

thnks

Glad you find it useful!

added some more coins (and links to them)
added some more pools (and links to those too)
added some more features (hashrates clear when you first click on them)


.... and I got my first rig set up!! Ubuntu 13.04, 7950 (but on an old motherboard), 600w PSU, using reaper getting about 550kh/s
GPU 548.8kH/s, shares: 606|146, stale 19.41%, GPU errors: 0.3897%, ~548.83 kH/s

I had to cut it back because I don't think my MB (It's out of a Dell Inspiron 530s and about 5 years old) can support the fastness of the 7950. when Intensity @ 20 was getting high GPU error and stales.

some updates!
- added more coins HYC, AMC, and FST - Thanks www.Coinchoose.com !!
- fixed a bug with the coin history sparklines (it was showing history for coins it didn't have history of! - it was magical)
- Made the default hash rate 1 instead of 0 (so that sorting works better - I know, it's weird)

Hey! great site! love it.

Though right now I can't get it to display any data, the whole chart of coins/rates etc is missing.

Is the site down for repair?

Thanks,
Greg

ugh, not down for repair, the difficulty data for the coin gets pulled from coinchoose.com, which seems to be down.  Once it comes back up, the data should re-appear.  sorry for the inconvenience.

cool

Hey it's all good man, can't control everything. None the less, great site!!

Maybe post on this thread when it's back up.

Will do! Thanks for the great feedback!

It should be back up.  Sorry for inconvenience as CoinChoose was DoSed

It should be back up.  Sorry for inconvenience as CoinChoose was DoSed

ah suck! ... well, yes, looks like it's back up now! ... thanks for the update.

added a couple more pools to the list ... oh my, yes, I think I'll need to handle this list a little better.

Added more detail to the sparklines and a better Market Avg ... If you like the site please donate! :D :)

well, it took a little while, BUT I now have the site pulling from multiple sources and then combining the data into a single feed.  This way if one source is unavailable, I'll still be able to show data.
oh, I also added a few more pools too.
If you enjoy the site and find it useful, PLEASE donate!  -  TBH, I actually haven't received a single donation yet :(
A donation will help with the upkeep and hosting - Thank you!!
oh, and click some of the banners on www.WhereToMine.com - that helps too :)
Enjoy!

very nice HD market lines, i didnt see any banners, even when turning off adblock
if my hashrate wasnt so low id send you some coins

Thanks! ... hmm... I'm using Google Adsense for the banners, maybe I'll find some other banners to use.  Anyone have any suggestions?

Is it just me, or are the SHA-256 coins calculating off the Scrypt hashrate?

Ha! I saw that issue too... should be working properly now

Perfect! Thanks for the great tool!

You're welcome! Glad to know people are using it.

And now there's adjusted coin earnings and profitability adjusted from stales.

Good Job Kevin,

It would be great IF it would automatically adjust the coins position according to profitability.

Added a few more coins and a few more pools! ... Going to be adding a few more features to the site too (I just have to find the time to update the site between my job and my business!)

Now on www.WhereToMine.com you'll be able to see coins that are traded vs LTC. 

I don't have some stats, but I do have history and dollar values now for DBL, GLD, JKC, MEC, RYC.

Total of 35 coins shown on the site. Enjoy!!

just added some more links and some details about YAC ... please donate AND/OR click the banners on the site if you have found it helpful to you.  THANKS!

boringly this site just tells me to keep mining BTC.  :-\

Good to know, thanks  :D

block reward is based on difficulty but not by a massive amount, i think the default reward is 100 and not the 500 you have listed
current blocks being made range from 103 to 105

to give a nicer comparison an input box for scrypt-jane would be nice like theres a box for sha and scrypt. hash rate is different for scrypt-jane

I guess that's what I get for not researching this.  I had received an email from someone that requested it to be listed on the site and that the reward was 500... 

Now you see why I haven't added it :)

Mining BTC only

nice site looks good keeo it up..thanks ;D

... and all graphs are back now.  Enjoy!

Jerry seyz* LTC kool-aid in dixie cups ftc maybe close 2nd place..thanks

ooops, I forgot to turn back on the history sparklines ... they're back now.  Sorry about that

they were gone for a while, but now they're back ... again!

can you tell me what profitability formula you are using ?

Realized I hadn't posted in a while ... so here's what is new with the www.WhereToMine.com site:
- I just added a crap-ton more coins (although, I'm still in the process of getting all the info for them)
- I removed the separate area for pool, because now pools are a drop-down for each coin
- I removed a couple of ads (but, please click on the ones that are on the site)
- oh, restructured the back end part and I took out some other javascript and crap so that the load times should be much faster.

Let me know what you guys think!  - suggestions (and donations) are always welcome!

Datacoin is not scrypt but cpu and now it has a pool running for 3 days

I've emailed you twice about your site. No response. Your difficulties and your profit levels are all way out-of-date and/or just plain wrong. It says it updates every 5 minutes but that's obviously not the case. Also, it switches between BTC under market and LTC under market column, seemingly completely randomly. For instance, half the time, the numbers for MEME say "BTC" under Market, and the other half of the time it says "LTC". There is no option on the page to choose.

Please fix your site, and start responding to your email.

Kevin, have you considered including Peseta Coin on your site.

Main info on https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=403378.0

Thanks.

Hey Kevin,

I noticed your site says MEM coin is not being shown due to problems with your difficulty feeds. Well let me tell you.. that is only the beginning of your problems. Just checked and BTB is still way off, reflecting absurdly high profitability. There are most likely a lot more coins that have wrong difficulty. You should just start completely over with that site, because it's pretty much shit at this point, to be quite honest.

:-/

Datacoin is not scrypt. It is a CPU coin since it is a fork of Primecoin.
