Hey guys, I've been trying to get my head around this all afternoon lol I've seen videos etc of people mining and most are saying they are generating around 150BTC a week. I know there are lots of external factors that affect this but on average how many kh's can lets say one Radeon 5870 achieve ?

Paypal mining for software miners was an 1st april joke. if that's a joke, then why is the paypal email field still there under advanced settings? PayPal payouts may be available soon.

regardign paypal mining. How do I get to the page to enter my paypal email? I know the direct link is http://deepbit.net/settings but I want to know how to get to it using the menu. "Advanced..." button on your account page. Also, it says to use "--currency=PPUSD", do I just add that to the end regardless of the type of miners? for example, I am using poclbm for gpu. So I would run "poclbm.exe --currenty=PPUSD"? Paypal mining for software miners was an 1st april joke. What do I put for "Your wallet for receiving rewards"?
Your bitcoin address for receiving rewards.

Looks like your pool forgot switch to higher difficulty ;).
btc/share went down as soon as the difficulty changed, so I'll say that's not the case. "BTC per share" is only for PPS mode.

ASICs are expensive for small quantities, cheap for large. But how many SHA256 ASICs would one expect to be able to sell? And how much performance per Watt can actually be achieved? The power consumed by a 2GHash/sec ASIC would not exceed 5W; this is based on inquiries with friends who make ASICs in their day jobs, and assuming a relatively straightforward, unoptimized design. So in other words, power requirements would be 50 - 100x lower than with GPUs. 5 times lower than GPUs, actually. 200 MH/s per single chip in plastic package. Where are you getting your figures? Mine are based on a 10M gate ASIC using a speedy cheap process like Hard Copy or eASIC. ArtForz is already mining on his own ASICs, ask him for details. But he never shown photos of this setup, so it's not guaranted to be true.

It would mean, that the difficulty must change to a better rate, but if it doesn't, no one would mine. If nobody mines, the system doesn't works anymore. Are my thoughts correct?
No. If people stop mining then difficulty will go down to keep speed at 1 block per ~10 minutes.

I've seen a few fourm post about transaction fees vs free transaction and I was wondering if your server is running using the current standard rules about fees or if you have modified it to accept certain transactions over others? I have already posted about this. My pool is including free transactions in mined blocks and usually i'm including even more free transactions than default configuration does.

[Tycho] Can you please add half hour time zone also? I am from India & it confuses me a lot, coz i have the option to choose only +5 or +6 I don't have superman powers to shift India country to +5 or +6 time zone, & also no place to put India, coz below will be some other country. Please at least add 5:30, if you can't add all 30 minutes.
+5.5 added to the list.

I started to mine at about 16:45 deepbit-time (or german time, pretty same) First I wasn't sure, my BTC were slowly going higher, but now I'm curious.
Your balance may be updated before history column, so there is a chance that you got reward, but don't see the corresponding block yet. Also you can set your timezone in advanced settings.

well, in the long run the found blocks will be equal to your BTCs ;) just be patience. i have tried the solo run, but at this difficulty i prefer pooling ;) Tycho, the "bold" total shares in the statistics means that i have found a block? then it is 2 for today :D Yes, should be so. Somehow many people notice their blocks today... So it had to be about 0.09 or 0.10 BTC and not 0.19 BTC. I'm only working with ~75 MHash/s.
You have only two blocks in the history column ? Do you remember that your balance may be delayed up to one hour ?
|

I knew that someone will be not happy to see block stats :) But there is ALWAYS someone who found more blocks than average and someone who found less. That's the way pools work - by distributing luck evenly. So should i stay in the pool? it seems Alot less profitable BUT: this is not a discussion of weather or not im gonna run off to solo mining.
That was a lucky run, I had same experience when trying other pools. It doesn't means that you will have same luck tomorrow or in a next week or in a next hour. I'll recommend staying.

I know it's ancient. But it is sitting idle 80% of it's life so if I could get some coins trickling in that would be great.
Can I use this with any of the open sourced software out there, or am I too old? If so, can someone recommend a card I can plug into the same slot that would work?
No, you can't. 8200+ is needed. https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Mining_hardware_comparison#Nvidia

I don't remember where i read in these forums but most of peoples get usually 1.x rewards or more on higher Mhash/s, am i just unlucky, or is my hashrate too low as some sig is using 5870(what is not really that much faster than 5850) and hashrate ~900Mhash/s?
No, your rewards are proportional to your hashrate. If you get twice more megahashes, your reward will double. the last 24 hours were epic for deepbit! 40+ blocks and from 12BTC/day i jumped to 20 with the same MHash !!!!
I'm doing my best :)

It won't jump up & down because i'm not using score-based system, that's why i'm not showing "estimated reward".
Excuse me, but jumps in estimated reward are not related to score system. It's changing also in share based system for miners with slow submit rate, because in formula user_shares / total_shares * 50, 'total shares' is rising constantly, but 'user shares' is changing only time to time. Sorry, that wasn't some kind of offence to your system. In my experience standart deviation of estimated reward in score-based pool was higher than in share-based. I know that it averages out and the reward will be the same over time.

Are there any more statistics that you plan on exposing via the API?
What info do you want to fetch ? Suggestions are welcome. Slush's pool has "estimated reward" - it calculates your proportional reward during a round by dividing your shares by the total shares. I'm not sure it would work with the delay here. Your estimated reward in DeepBit depends only on your speed and the combined pool hashrate, both of those stats are available. It won't jump up & down because i'm not using score-based system, that's why i'm not showing "estimated reward". I can add it, but it will be the same for all rounds if your speed is constant.

Is it just me, or did the withdraw option in GUIminer just got grayed out for deepbit? On a kind of related not, does anyone have any suggestions to why automatic payment have never worked for me? I used to just click withdraw, but now the button is constantly grayed out.
Auto payment is triggered if your last payout was more than 24 hours ago. Instant payout button is available if you had less than two payouts in the last 24 hours, your balance is at least 0.01 BTC and you have set your bitcoin address. I'll increase allowed payouts number in a couple of days.

I`m was just think about it, and came to conclusion that 1 hour delay on stats can work as cheat proof feature. There are other ways to find pool's blocks, but most people won't mess with it, so it helps at this moment. About stas. Will be nice to see exact number of solved block, transfers included in it , who solved it. It maybe strange to hear - but that will be real nice. Maybe not so important, but nice. And yes, i`m think there are a lot of peaple who will enjoy just looking, at the job done. You can click on a block's timestamp in stats and there will be it's number and all transactions included in it. If this block was found by you, it's share count will be displayed in bold text. And on the bottom of advanced stats there is counter of blocks, found by you.
