Title: ETH mining, steady decline in payouts
Post by: JoWannes on February 10, 2018, 06:40:43 PM
Sorry in advance for the obvious noob question.

So I'm mining ETH using Claymore's miner with 6 RX580 4GB cards on ethermine.org. I've started just before New Year (a month and a half ago)

Claymore reports +- 180MH/s, the mining pool +- 170MH/s. This seems to be normal, and stood steady over time.

Despite that, there's a steady decline in my weekly payouts:

Is this normal? I mean, yeah, difficulty increases over time, but... does it go this fast?

Any recommendations?

Thanks!

Yes it's normal.
More competition bigger network hashrate, less money for you.

Ethereum network hashrate is currently over 230 TH/s and assuming an average of 25 MH/s per GPU, that more than 9,200,000 GPUs.

About a 7.5% drop in yield per month. looks normal

Dont worry bro it's normal, all pools have such small problems. you can check the table (schedule) under the payouts/rounds link.

As others have said this is normal as pool difficulty goes up. If your interested in learning more just google about ethers mining difficulty

Its normal , and your payout is going to be much less faster... I hope you are not one of those guys who built they mining rig , bc any kind of web calculator told you , you going to get back your investment within a few months ...
