Title: Virtual Miner Post by: preacceleration on November 23, 2014, 08:23:49 PM Does anyone know of a program that tracks, over a length of time, the simulated profit of a miner as if you were mining?
Title: Re: Virtual Miner Post by: MrGreenHat on November 24, 2014, 12:55:47 AM Well, if you are pool mining, you can just look at the past data for certain pools, how many blocks they solved in x timeframe and you can do the pretty basic math yourself to find out how much BTC you would have mined. As far as solo mining goes, you could guestimate using the difficulty, but never be 100% sure, due to the fact that a "virtual miner" can't create real hashes, so you would never know whether or not you would find a block or not.
EDIT: But to answer your question, no I am not aware of such a program, because doing the above calculations seems easier than creating a program that does it for you, but you can always code one up yourself.

There is bitcoin hidden beneath the surface of the earth, and us miners are the ones risking life and limb everyday in different groups, some even take the risk to "mine solo" by themselves without any others, but the payoff for these risk-takers can be much larger because they might find a large amount of bitcoin (say, 25 bitcoin) if they are really lucky and have a lot of crystal methamphetamine that they can smoke to keep on mining. Some folks say it ain't even worth the effort these days, but the mining is in my blood. My daddy mined bitcoins and his daddy did, too!Seriously, though, wikipedia, google, I bet even bing can help you out more than making your debut here with such a question in such an arbitrary thread. "Bitcoin mining". If you like to live in denial, you'll love it! :P Title: Re: Virtual Miner Post by: Sakarias-Corporation on December 01, 2014, 06:34:03 PM What is mining?
