Title: discrepancy on what to mine for profit Post by: razorseal on December 09, 2017, 05:04:43 AM Hey everyone,
I'm curious the discrepency I'm having on coinwarz vs whattomine... I entered my h/s for lyra2rev2 and equihash... one says I need to be mining Bitcoin Gold and the other says to mine vertcoin... same rates entered. looks like different exchanges, but still... any idea how I can pick what to mine? ps. I'll be using 1x GTX 970 I started off with nanopool's zcash, but then realized I could make slightly more if I go VTC or BTG... https://s17.postimg.org/scw6ep79r/coinwarz.png <---- Coinwarz screenshot https://s17.postimg.org/97sx4y0bj/whattomine.png <---- whattomine screenshot Title: Re: discrepancy on what to mine for profit Post by: leonix007 on December 09, 2017, 06:32:40 AM Hey everyone, I'm curious the discrepency I'm having on coinwarz vs whattomine...

I mean, I'm making couple bucks a day at best. if I'm always switching, it makes it pretty hard to build a pool of anything. lol Someone needs to make an auto switching miner... Like nicehash, but direct mining. Title: Re: discrepancy on what to mine for profit Post by: leonix007 on December 09, 2017, 02:00:34 PM So most people are constantly switching around? What's the point on sticking to a coin that is not already profitable if you don't switch, if the word 'Constant' to you is a frequencies, that is up to you. Quote I mean, I'm making couple bucks a day at best. if I'm always switching, it makes it pretty hard to build a pool of anything. lol Someone needs to make an auto switching miner... Like nicehash, but direct mining. there are certain app for mining softwares like winminer that offers auto coins switching if you want to. ::) Title: Re: discrepancy on what to mine for profit Post by: Vann on December 09, 2017, 02:09:05 PM Coinwarz.com uses real-time data by default. Whattomine.com uses a 24 hour average for difficulty and price by default in it's calculations. You need to change it to 'Current price' and 'Current difficulty' in the sort options to use the current data.

Also tried betterhash, which is nice, but it seems profits are higher if I do vertcoin right now.

I see they also pull data from other exchanges, which also fluctuates the price. |
