Title: ETH Diff Post by: FloppyPurpleGherkin on December 02, 2020, 10:57:05 AM When the EPOCH changed from 378-379 last night, All pool's lost a LOT of hash, Ie 10TH from ethermine and 5TH from Nanopool.. etc etc
Is this the end for the original Antminer E2 4GB? Title: Re: ETH Diff Post by: Andor9505 on December 02, 2020, 11:07:38 AM You can mining the ETC.
Title: Re: ETH Diff Post by: miner29 on December 02, 2020, 02:31:10 PM Probably more to do with this:

The present ETC hashing algorithm have been upgraded or modified so I'm not sure it will support asic mining but if it does then OP is in luck because the new modified ETC algorithm supports 3gig graphics card so 4gig cards or probably asic miners will benefits alotTitle: Re: ETH Diff Post by: xxcsu on December 02, 2020, 03:14:36 PM maybe because Claymores Miner stopped working :) lot of ppl wasn't ready to switch miner right away :) or they just have no idea this goign to happen .
I bet today everyone who used claymores miner switching to another one , so network hashrate and difficulty going to go back to normal. ASICS (4GB) still working fine ... Title: Re: ETH Diff Post by: miner29 on December 02, 2020, 05:02:49 PM those of us on linux are still mining away on Claymore....wont be too much longer...but it still works great for Ethos even 4gb cards :)
Title: Re: ETH Diff Post by: mochaaa on December 02, 2020, 05:24:37 PM bunch of my rigs fell off or restarted/crashed at the dag epoch, probably something similar happened

Title: Re: ETH Diff Post by: mochaaa on December 02, 2020, 08:56:36 PM no claymore - all phoenix. happened to 470s/480s/570s/580s of both 4gb+8gb
Title: Re: ETH Diff Post by: miner29 on December 02, 2020, 10:43:08 PM Just to point out ive still got several rigs on linux (ethos) and mining 4 and 8 gb cards on PM 5.0e and 5.1c even right now on Ethos 1.3.3 released October 9th 2018
Most of the issues are with the OS and space they take up and reserve. My old Ethos keeps kicking it and will probably only stop mining 4gb cards once the actual dag is larger than 4gb. Title: Re: ETH Diff Post by: adaseb on December 03, 2020, 06:04:28 AM According to, https://etherscan.io/chart/hashrate it looks like its still pretty much at its peak.
If some pools are showing decreased hashrate then its most likely because, 1) According to some calculators, ETC seems 2x as profitable but this is due to an error and people are switching 2) Claymore stopped working at the current epoch 3) Some people using other non-claymore miners under Windows 10 might of ran out of GDDR Pretty sure the E3 is still hashing away. Probably 1 more month left or so.

Probably 1 more month left or so. DAG reaches size of 4GB exactly on 24th of December, I think E3 will stop hashing then and it will be like a christmas present.

Yes I am always wondering exactly how many of those E3 miners they have actually built. They never stated it in public. I think they made at least 10000 units however given by the amount of Antminer that they produced during the years. Might be less since they had to source actual ram to make the ASIC actually work. The way that GPUs have advanced it’s pretty amazing however. Now there are tons of high end GPUs so owning an E3 isn’t really worth while anymore. The highest GPUs can make like what? 75Mhs from a single GPU? Pretty impressive in my opinion. We will know when the same amount of hash rate leaves ETH and moves to ETC we can estimate it then the amount of units produced.
