Title: Bytecoin (BCN) CPU-mining economics Post by: Hexah on April 07, 2014, 04:38:36 PM Hi, guys!
It's two weeks since I've started mining Bytecoin (BCN). Now I mine on my PC (Intel Core i7-920 Processor) that gives me 9H/s solo mining. Current diff is ~526 000. I mean Bytecoin diff - an "integer value, which informally represents an average amount of work (number of hashes calculated) one needs to perform in order to create the current block." https://wiki.bytecoin.org/wiki/Difficulty Exchange rate is 0.2 uBTC (according to https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=531925.0) So my solo-mining revenue is 0.258 BTC in a week. I should say it's pretty good result! I also mine via VPS (2.13 H/s) that gives me 2 blocks -> 0.05 BTC per week. Yes, now it doesn't cover my VPS expences, but I hope one day I will do twice current BTC. What's your mining power and revenue?

Cool story, bro.

I have the same cpu and I can't break 4 H/s

Title: Re: Bytecoin (BCN) CPU-mining economics Post by: SuperKing on April 09, 2014, 11:49:10 AM As you say, Bytecoin is a good coin for CPU mining.
So I will try this. I didn't konw to mining which coin recently. Title: Re: Bytecoin (BCN) CPU-mining economics Post by: Monetizer on April 09, 2014, 12:06:36 PM Interesting, maybe I could try get GPU and CPU mining going at the same time. Is there a list of CPU speeds etc?

Is there a list of CPU speeds etc? You're not able to start Bytecoin mining with GPU... or did you meant you're currently mining something with GPU and just going to load your PC with CPU mining as well? Title: Re: Bytecoin (BCN) CPU-mining economics Post by: havanabob on April 11, 2014, 09:34:04 AM Not bad indeed! Going to give BCN a 24x7 ride - holla holla get dolla :D

Title: Re: Bytecoin (BCN) CPU-mining economics Post by: Cheesus on April 12, 2014, 06:07:16 AM So... what are you current status guys? How much money you've been able to get? Didn't go well for me with my i5. Bad luck guys.
Title: Re: Bytecoin (BCN) CPU-mining economics Post by: Johnny Mnemonic on April 13, 2014, 07:23:14 PM When I started mining a few weeks ago I was averaging about 100k/day (4.5 H/s). Right now I'm getting around 35k/day.
Title: Re: Bytecoin (BCN) CPU-mining economics Post by: bitwho on April 13, 2014, 08:14:57 PM i doubt this is cpu only
Title: Re: Bytecoin (BCN) CPU-mining economics Post by: sorryforthat on April 14, 2014, 01:46:16 AM i doubt this is cpu only It is CPU Only Can you give a break down of how you were able to get it functional on VPS. I was plagued with error after error on Ubunut. Tried multiple images and ram packages.

Not much but https://encrypted-tbn1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcT0pDQ69kyJUKZxHybvtWXca-F9JgBCTZxm7dYUvG3e-W_uk_aV Title: Re: Bytecoin (BCN) CPU-mining economics Post by: EndlessWin on April 14, 2014, 01:27:00 PM it's time to film a movie "Difficulty rises" bytecoin version. 800k+ atm.
with difficulty recalculating every 2 minutes it's easy to assemble a gambling site with "Guess the difficulty" game. :) Title: Re: Bytecoin (BCN) CPU-mining economics Post by: Hexah on April 14, 2014, 02:38:53 PM it's time to film a movie "Difficulty rises" bytecoin version. 800k+ atm. with difficulty recalculating every 2 minutes it's easy to assemble a gambling site with "Guess the difficulty" game. :) That's actually a valuable idea. I remember a Bitcoin game "Guess the exchange rate" based on the same concept.

Title: Re: Bytecoin (BCN) CPU-mining economics Post by: EndlessWin on April 15, 2014, 11:25:55 AM as it turns out there are indeed some good-to-go solutions for this type of gambling but all of them worth a fortune ;D
so i pass this idea to someone who have dolla :P Title: Re: Bytecoin (BCN) CPU-mining economics Post by: havanabob on April 15, 2014, 01:56:32 PM What is the most effective setup for BCN mining currently? I saw the the comparison but maybe someone came up with a better setup.

Tho can say one thing: single i5 is not a top setup :D Title: Re: Bytecoin (BCN) CPU-mining economics Post by: havanabob on April 15, 2014, 02:39:29 PM What is the most effective setup for BCN mining currently?

Tho can say one thing: single i5 is not a top setup :D :) Would love to hear from AMD users, as comparison sheet doesn't mention much of it. Title: Re: Bytecoin (BCN) CPU-mining economics Post by: jasemoney on April 15, 2014, 03:03:48 PM Downloaded the beginners package from https://bytecoin.org/ ran it and entered passcode to create wallet. I think its syncing but it started at block 0 :/ says 600+ days old though the time is reducing theres c:\projects\sorrybigbro\src error messages relating to p2p i think. is this just because its not sync'd? How do you start mning once it is, setgenerate true -1 as usual?

Wut indeed... Anyone explain the blue? my balance is zero, must be blocks under current Diff? Anyone explain the red? is it because im not on Tor?

Title: Re: Bytecoin (BCN) CPU-mining economics Post by: Monkeyseemonkeydo on April 16, 2014, 09:10:34 AM Have started mining it a couple of days ago on a single PC (i7) but now I am able to mine on another 3 PCs (two i5 and i7 )
Should I install wallets on each machine or it is possible to mine to one already existed wallet?

Start mining from the daemon with "start_mining your_address number_of_threads" command where your_address is the address in your current wallet.

Blue speaks for itself. 2 people simultaniously found a block, you received 1st one and then the 2nd one, 2nd one added as alternative. Don't know about the red tho.

Don't know about the red tho. maybe it's also somehow connected to the the alternative block. something about time. Title: Re: Bytecoin (BCN) CPU-mining economics Post by: Rias on April 18, 2014, 01:54:32 PM I'm mining with minergate pool mostly. Even my shitty old Vaio laptop is making me around 100k a day. However, as they finally revealed the fees I might be switching to solo mining instead.

However, as they finally revealed the fees I might be switching to solo mining instead. Switching from the pool with shitty Vaio is not a best idea. Pool provides you with a stable mediocre income and solo mining with your device is... questionable. ;D Title: Re: Bytecoin (BCN) CPU-mining economics Post by: Stanford on April 23, 2014, 12:22:22 PM I'm mining with minergate pool mostly. Even my shitty old Vaio laptop is making me around 100k a day. However, as they finally revealed the fees I might be switching to solo mining instead. Dude, you'd better not to switch to solo mining if you have ''shitty old Vaio'' Cheesus is right about income provided with pool. Just think about your decision better. You can always switch to solo mining. Silly question but - have anyone with two similar cpus tried to compare solo and pool mining? Would be very interesting experiment I think. :) Title: Re: Bytecoin (BCN) CPU-mining economics Post by: Monkeyseemonkeydo on April 25, 2014, 07:36:57 AM Have started mining it a couple of days ago on a single PC (i7) but now I am able to mine on another 3 PCs (two i5 and i7 ) Should I install wallets on each machine or it is possible to mine to one already existed wallet?

Finally get my cpus mining to my current wallet. So excited to mine coins. Now as it's already a little left to mine I am thinking about buying bcn Title: Re: Bytecoin (BCN) CPU-mining economics Post by: hellojolin on April 29, 2014, 07:40:47 AM Seems CPU mining coins are out dated.
X11 will be the hype soon. Title: Re: Bytecoin (BCN) CPU-mining economics Post by: Monkeyseemonkeydo on May 02, 2014, 02:33:18 AM Seems CPU mining coins are out dated. X11 will be the hype soon.

Because of reborn of Bytecoin, I decided to create a site for collecting and comparing CPU and GPU benchmark for it. I've submitted details on this site: bytecoinz.ml (http://bytecoinz.ml) You can submit your details for CPU or GPU to help BCN Society. We have Reddit group (https://www.reddit.com/r/BytecoinBCN). It's a pleasure to join us ::) |
