Title: ant s1 help needed
Post by: ridemywideglide on March 05, 2015, 06:47:44 PM
I'm ignorant on mining, so hopefully this isn't too stupid.

I'm trying to get my S1 setup to mine diamond coin.. Is this possible?

I have everything entered correctly, but everything is rejected..

I've tried danbi's pool and donkeypool, both give me the same problem..

The AntMiner S1 is a SHA256 miner, which I doubt DiamondCoin is SHA256 algo.

Check out CoinWarz.com to find the SHA256 coins to mine.

To let you know, an S1 is not profitable for Bitcoin mining, those were popular in 2013.

Good luck to ya.

No DiamondCoin is Groestl algo...  Is there a way to make the S1 work with it?

I purchased this one used to see if it was something I wanted to persue. Don't know how long I'll keep it, I see the S4's are dropping in price..
