Title: ETH shares per minute
Post by: 1337leet on March 23, 2021, 07:08:37 PM
Hey guys,

I use a RTX 3090 to mine ETH.
I have got the same settings all the time and I get 122 MH/s all the time.

But this morning I consitently had over 2 shares per minute.
I restarted the system this evening and run it with the same settings. I still get 122 MH/s all the time - but I only got 0,6 - 0,8 shares per minute.

Is this something regarding my setup or is it just pure luck and I can't do anything about this?

Random variations in submitted shares is normal. It depends on how fast the GPU finds the hash of the work submitted to the GPU by the pool. Just like when the pool finds a block, sometimes they can find them quicker than average and some times it takes longer. As long as your hashrate shown on the pool is correct, that's what matters.

Thanks a lot :)

If the Miner has got bad luck then the calculated speed shown in the pool is below 120 MHs. But of course it‘s sometimes also higher than the actual speed. The average comes near the real speed.

It also depends on the pool difficultly setting, for example Nicehash use less than 1.5gb and binance use over 2g, the lowest I can find is Viabtc which is even less than 1gb meaning you will find shares faster on Viabtc but the end results will still be near the same

Most likely, your pool shows the current statistics at the moment, it's like the current gas consumption in a car.
You try to check the statistics of charges or payments for a week or a month, because there is no point in analyzing the data every day if you have 1 video card.
It may be luck on the mining pool, but the payout schedule is important to me

Dont forget every share is not same, pay attention for example share found at difficulty : 1000mhs and 10Ghs. The share you found at 10Ghs has 10x more reward than 1000mhs.

That doesn't matter, the pool counts every share the same based on the stratum difficulty. The only time the share
difficulty matters is if it solves a block, then the pool submits it to the blockchain and credits the miners. But it
usually means nothing special for the miner that found it.
