That works like a charm but with one small flaw.

I added 1234 to he value and get this.

1234.00686725

No comma, so unless your code can be modified to add he comma at the appropriate spots even say at 1000000 then it looks like I'll have to stick with the multiple lines I use. Really liked your sugestion too.
Like that?
Code:
$formatted = preg_replace('/^([\d,]+\.\d\d)(\d+)/', "$1<small>$2</small>", number_format($unmodified_blockchain_balance, 8));

PS: If you ever reach those 1000000, give me a few Wink
Exactly like that n ya, ill hook you up with 0.00000001 ;-p

Thx !

The time frame is "How long at this difficulty do you want to calculate mining income".  I usually do a month to get a rough idea, but in reality, the best place to go is mining.thegenesisblock.com.  That way you can put in all your factors, like cost of hardware, pool fees, cost of electric, etc and see just how much you can possibly make during a given time frame, when you'll break even, and when you'll start losing money:  Here's a link for 600 GH/s (assuming Monarch and delivery in a few months)...

http://thegenesisblock.com/mining/a/cb33e1402d <-- assumes no change in value of BTC
http://thegenesisblock.com/mining/a/766d922c65 <-- 5% monthly increase in value of BTC
Thx, will chck that out but FWIW, it's Black Arrow. Just got this bit if shit news with a slightly neat twist.

Dear XXX,

We have to inform you that our schedule to manufacture and assemble the system has been disrupted and we are unable to make delivery of the Batch 1 Minion ASIC chip on the initial scheduled date (end of February). We are now expecting to dispatch all Batch 1 orders on 1st of May 2014.

Please be re-assured we are confident that we have tried our best to accomplish our initial ambitious targets. However, we came to the conclusion that it is in the best interest of our customers to delay shipping in order to ensure that the product provides the best-possible user experience.

Without this delay we would have achieved 1.5W/Ghash which would have meant that our chip would not have been competitive at all.

We have now finalized the design process using our newly improved code and will start manufacturing the chip (tape out) in the next few days.

We are happy to announce that Black Arrow Software’s products remain on target for being the best in their class for power consumption. We confirm that our latest improved design has the following technical specifications:

    ·0.75w/Ghash on TT corner @ 25C which is expected to run at 120Ghash/sec.

    ·SS corner will be 0.6w/ghash and will run at 100Ghash.

    ·A further underclocking and underpower should be possible and should yield 80Ghash @ 0.5W/ghash. However, please note that this is not guaranteed to work stable.

Please note, that a further push for improvement in the optimization process would have guaranteed further delays for at least 1-2 months.

It is no secret to us that the Bitcoin mining process is proving to be more and more difficult every day. To compensate our loyal customer for the unforeseen delay of in delivering our miners for batch 1, we are happy to offer free extra hashing power which consists of 25% of your purchased hashing power from our Rent-Some-Minions cloud program for 4 months.

The account for the tape-out has been settled in full and we are confident that the delivery will be completed shortly.

We are taking all the necessary measures and positive actions to expedite delivery to you as soon possible and we are confident that we have the resources to be successful.

Please note:

    ·We estimate that the delivery for the Batch1 will coincide with the delivery of the Batch2

    ·The delivery of Batch2 remains unchanged

    ·The one-off offer presented above is open to the customers who placed orders for Batch1

Sincerely,

The Black Arrow Software Team

So instead of a early March delivery, it's now suspected to be May... so that only screws me even more. Either way my cost was low so I should still be able o break even anywhere from 2-4 months if the May delivery holds up then its just a matter of thee electricity which righ now is $0.09kWh.

I do however like the idea of 150Gh/s for four months free. I did send a tikect though asking if I could opt for another X1 instead since the cost to them would actually be lower and benefit me in he long run.

150Gh for four months compard to 100Gh forever.

So if nothing else I mine at 750Gh for four months then drop to the 600 I will get out of the 6 X1's I ordered.

No Conversion Increase: http://thegenesisblock.com/mining/a/6474ed115e
W/ Conversion Increase: http://thegenesisblock.com/mining/a/4df1cc0caf

That just figures in the 600 with a may start date, it basically says I'll never break even lol, same even if I usee the free 150 I'm supposed to get for four months.

Now if by some stroke of luck they sill do a late feb shipment, it says I'll break even in 100 days.

Edit: Then there's this calc that shows waaaaaaay diff shit, least in regards to what an be earned per day, months etc.

Question, would it be possible to estimate a perday earning under curren dificulty... assuming that for all rounds I submitted approx 380,000 shares ?
My original number was much higher bu I lowered it for the purpose of this question. My thoughts on this could be way off but I seem to verage around 442 shares per round and I'm running 2 335Mh/s ASICs.
I will be getting 600Gh/s soon I hope. That said, I took that 442 and divided it by the two ASICs I have and figured I'd probably get around 221 per 335Mh/s. I then took the 600Gh/s figure and divided it 335Mh/s and got 1,791. I then took that number and times it by the 221 and got 395,811 which I then lowered as a guess to the 380,000.
So ya, I could be way the hell off on this, but for shits n giggles can anyone answer the question which I pose again below >

http://www.bitcoinx.com/profit/
See, that was my thought too... but how accurate can calcs really be ? I mean what you make can for lak o a better thought be based on where you sit on the totem pole. Ex, someone has 22Th will make less than a guy with 30Th.

At 10gh it says I should be making about .0023 BTC per day...which I do. 
Wih the 670Mh/s I aevrage it says 0.0002 but it's more like 0.00014. Not complaining because there's going o always be variance.

That said, that calcs diff from the one I usually use so can you help me understand what this is asking ?

Each hour, any accounts with a balance equal to or greater than their payout threshold will be paid an amount equal to their threshold.

So am I understanding this right ?

So lets say I have auo payout at 0.01, and lets say my balance is 0.04, this means there's going to be 4 payments at 0.01 instead of a single at 0.04 just because the thresholds at 0.01.

Sorry but that doesn't make a lot of sense to me.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I can confirm that this is the way it works.  I don't really see why it's an issue though because once it catches up then your payouts will level out.  If you have a high balance to begin with couldn't you pick a number to force a single payout to clear your account and then crank it down from there?
Am I missing something?
Never said it was an issue just didnt understand it but at the same time I did forget about manuals lol.

If you have a threshold of .01, then you'll never have more than .01 in your account.  What happens is if you have .00999999 and get a payout on a shift for .001, you'd have .010999999.  The payment would be .01, and your remaining balance would be left.
Ex. Someone for one reason or another has a 0.1 threshold and a balnce of 0.09, well lets sy that person one day decids o change it to 0.01. Voila you now have a threshold of 0.01 ad will now get 9 payments of 0.01 if I read that right.

Edit: Yes you an argue why not set a thresh of 0.09, I'm just sayingg it doesnt make sense to me to pay out the exact amout of the threshold if account balance is higher, not inluding dust off course.

If you only want a formatting like 0.00 without rounding, that code is about an order of magnitude slower.
I don't only want the x.xx, I use the last six digits for smaller txt.



The way everything is set, I get my smaller txt and get to numberformat for the commas without rounding the decimal.
1651  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Technical Support / Re: number_format() is rounding and I don't want it to... on: January 31, 2014, 09:51:02 AM
I forgot all abou this post and sor of went a differen route with the same results.

Code:
	### Blockchain Balance ###
$unmodified_blockchain_balance = ( $blockchain_final_balance / 100000000 );
$blockchain_wallet_bal = substr( sprintf( '%.8f', $unmodified_blockchain_balance ), 0, -9 );
### Blockchain Str Length ###
$blockchain_str = $blockchain_wallet_bal;
$blockchain_str_length = strlen($blockchain_str);
### Blockchain Balance Visuals ###
$formatted_blockchain_wallet_bal1 = number_format( $blockchain_wallet_bal ); // Everything beofore the decimal.
$formatted_blockchain_wallet_bal2 = substr( sprintf( '%.8f', $unmodified_blockchain_balance ), $blockchain_str_length, -6 ); // The decimal & two trailing digits.
$formatted_small_blockchain_wallet_bal = substr( sprintf( '%.8f', $unmodified_blockchain_balance ), -6 ); // Just the last 6 digits.

I know it's a little over complaicated or w/e but it works ;-)

Made a small change to the code, I made it so the dust "last 6 digits" are smaller than the rest of the text. I like this idea and have seen it used on a lot of sites. That said, this wont affect anyone interested in the sig unless they want it that way.

was in the talks but from that post it soins like it just hit the back burner again...  Eleuthria is a die hard BTC fan so BTCGuild take over everything as far as that goes...
Back burner or no is fine with me. Don't ge me wrong, I'd love to mine LTC but I'd have to inves sooo much more just to mak i worth while than I ever did with BTC.

That is unless BTC equipment could somehow later be used to mine it, even thn, all that would do is skyroket the piss out of LTC's diff.

Edit: Ps, Eleu... I sent you a PM about your site regarding blocks found.

No date was ever given for DVC/IXC, only that they would come *after* the new backend and after Scrypt Guild.  Unfortunately, the new backend took much longer than expected (illness + bugs), and was eventually scrapped entirely.  As a result, Scrypt Guild is also pushed back further.

IXC and DVC are *completely* worthless.  If BTC Guild adds them, they'll just become twice as hard to mine from difficulty, and go even further down in value since you'll have a whole lot of new people selling them to the highest bid on the books.  Right now they add less than 0.2%.  If their difficulty was increased by BTC Guild's hash rate, it would be less than 0.1%, not counting the drop in value guaranteed to follow the rise in difficulty.


This isn't saying they won't be added, just that they have always been near the bottom of the list of things to add/consider adding.
Scrypt Guild ?

Ok, so I obviously missed something but do / did I smell a LTC pool on the horizon ?

I thought you said you didn't mine in that PM to me yesterday when I asked you a question. Or is that why it's neg, beause you stopped ?

I expect he means because the pool luck has been bad these last 24 hours, the people on PPS have swallowed the profit.
Maybe I should switch to PPS with my massive 600 Mh/s and swallow some myself heh

I'd sure as shit notice if my hash rate dropped over 21Th, even if I didnt look at the worker page and just saw my combined hash rate as seen in he sig Ive been working on.



Nice sig! Will they let you use it, or is it for somewhere else?

Here and other places, still tweaking he code a tad bu it's basically done.

To use it here I have to paste it in he botom of the text field here.

For my own curiosity, assuming he mah is right and I don't know if it is. How would such  problem be diagnosed.

Edit: Also he said when he started he was getting 0.5 so by your math something was wrong when h came in.

If I had to guess, I'd say his hashrate is more like 440 Ghps. That's more likely than anything else (not noticing a hashrate 50 times lower than it should be, for example).

When I started mining here in late October I was getting .5 BTC daily. I thought the network and diff grows to a certain rate, right? I never remember getting .3 .4 ever, it just dived to .1 and stayed there. It basically jumped from .5 to .1 pretty much skipping all the numbers in between. Where did those .3's and .4's go? I would have loved to see them.

Who has time to pay attention? I'm a working man and put in my 16 hour days and come home too tired to think about luck or the difficulty. Smiley

Unfortunately, there's a significant amount of work a miner needs to do and understanding a miner needs to have if he or she wants to understand average daily earnings rather than average earnings between retargets - especially if they have a 22Thps investment.

Your best bet is to average your earnings over a retarget and compare that to previous retargets. Either way, you need to be able to work out your estimated daily earnings so you have something to which you can compare your actual results.

Daily: hashrate*86400/2^32/Difficulty*Reward per block

At 22 Thps Ghps, this is:

22e12/2^32/ 2193847870.1743*86400*25 = 5.043245 coins per day

So if you have 22Thps and you're only earning 0.1 coins per day, something is badly wrong somewhere.


For my own curiosity, assuming he mah is right and I don't know if it is. How would such  problem be diagnosed.
