Title: Ethermine Hashrate is not stable what would be the cause?
Post by: crairezx20 on August 07, 2018, 12:34:06 PM
I need mining expert here because I am having big fluctuate on mining ETH in ethermine
What I notice that the reported hashrate is stable but the current hashrate and average hashrate looks roller coaster.

So my question is what is the reason on fluctuating of both current and average hashrate?

And I would like to ask if there is a way to fix it and get less fluctuate?

also, add following:

- Stale shaer (1%)
- Miner fee (1%)
- Effective hash rate compared to reported (2%)

Do we have a way to fix this?

Because it looks like it reduces my weekly mining coins which are different from last month and I would like to know if there is another way to fix this.

Let me ask if this is because of continuous difficulty increase?

Hash rate isnt a stable thing, I dont think you understand the nuts and bolts of how mining actually works. If you see a smooth graph for hash rate thats because on the back end someone is cleaning it up to make it look nice.

You are solving math problems when hashing, you might solve it on the first try or the 204385763th try. The hash rate you see is an average of how long its taking you, its not a real static number.

There is nothing wrong with your hash rate and there is literally no reason to try and mess with it as its functioning as intended.

Also you will NEVER make an identical amount of coins month to month, thats just not how mining works when it comes to difficulty. You might want to read up on what you are doing, things will make much more sense once you educate yourself.

it is a lot more than that but good answer nonetheless. The whole point is luck, you might find 5 shares in a minute with a gpu or 0 and if is more than 15 seconds(eth network block time) then anything you find after the block was found is stale, so your gpu has essentially 15 seconds to find a share.
