Title: 6 hours in, sort of lost :/
Post by: Hikkler on August 13, 2014, 11:15:46 AM
So, I have been mining for 6 hours, and it has accepted and confirmed 15 shares, yet when I go and check on my pool account, it says that I have no estimated, unconfirmed, or confirmed reward. Is there something I have setup wrong do I need to change something?

What are you mining with?

Looking at speed if your mining BTC it will take a very very long time to get any real payout.

must be cpu at them speeds  ;D

anyway with them speeds it wont even think about updating the stats for a day or so. sadly the way slushes works means you dont get details until youve done a full block and withalot bigger pools than slush it can take a while for slushes to find a block

You're not seeing anything because your hashrate is too low to generate any money. You won't even make a dollar per year with that hashrate.

At current difficulty you'll make at max  0.00000233 Bitcoins a month. "less then one Cent"

At least it's something. If I hook my snes, n64, ps2, and my Motorola Razr up, I'd make probably 1/233 of that

Burning out your CPU and causing wear and tear is not worth it.

You need a 60-28 nm SHA-256 ASIC machine to make even a small amount of BTC..
Ever then It's been said buying and holding is more profitable.

You would be better of mining in an altcoin multipool (that converts rewards to BTC) with that hash rate.

Mining BTC with CPU is not smart.If you are mining with CPU on a laptop you will destroy your laptop...
You need a ASIC miner to mine BTC.
