Title: Re: A little miner with nice questions Post by: Ritual on January 15, 2014, 06:20:57 PM You've basically asked for an entire explanation, from the top down, of every aspect of mining and cryptocurency :) Any reply would not be short!
Having said that, I will be watching this thread, as you have some questions I am still researching too. (I am a newbie too!) Hope someone helps you! Rit.

In return, all I ask is that you check out my site for the latest BTC news! It's literally 2 days old so be nice :D ... http://www.thebtcdaily.com/
1) A wall-in wattameter (for American plugs anyway): http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00009MDBU/ref=oh_details_o03_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 2) Not sure what this question is, what setting in cgminer are you trying to configure? 3) 210-240 kH/s is normal for your card. Try these settings: -I 17 -g 2 -w 256 --thread-concurrency 3840 (via: https://litecoin.info/Mining_hardware_comparison) 4) Mining a 'block' is a lottery. Only one machine gets it. If you are in a "pool", that is then distributed amongst the miners evenly (or so we hope). 5) Difficulty is how hard it is to mine one block. This is usually done to slow down or speed up the "rate" in which coins are mined. Difficulty is not set and is always changing based on prior historical data. 6) When you mine, you make a share of the 'prize' which would be whatever coin you are mining. These coins would then be sent to your wallet (from your pool/online account). Then you could yes, trade your coins for EUR or USD or BTC or w/e you want. 7) CGMiner will only mine while it's on/running. If it's not running, you will not 'make' anything.

yes ill check your forum :) 2 : Setting ->manage profil -> coin (scroll menu) : all coin are not listed....so its important if i dont select one ? 5 : Low difficulty = more share = more credit = more profit righ ? 7 : I mean : a guy with 24/24h mining will have more profit than a guy mining 7h / stop for some minute / 7h..../ stop ? thanks again |
