lolMiner 1.70
Changes
Improved Nexa mining performance by 6 - 8% on all supported GPUs (except AMD Vega / VII).
Improved power efficiency of Nexa mining.
Hint:
Due to recent problems we advice to use the miner with --dns-over-https 0 when connecting to an auto-location pool. Else the pool mirror you receive might not be ideal for your location.

Special thanks to hashrate.no and JulianoCaju for help to iron out the bugs of this version Smiley

Even if they arrive soon, is there any profitable mineable coin other than Monero?
I think that in such a situation there are no profitable coins for mining on the market. For the processor, you also need to make special motherboards on which you can install several processors, otherwise for one processor there are a lot of additional costs for buying other PC components. And modern server hardware is very expensive, so I have not seen it in mining.

I don't think that nuclear energy is cheap because waste disposal is very expensive.
I mean as per the rate quoted in the article. It seems pretty cheap which means the operational costs could also be cheap but anyways i really don't know much about what it takes to set up a nuclear plant.

Maybe they are just given discounted tariffs as per an agreement.

But hydropower looks more attractive.
Probably not in most countries, including mine. Even the industrial tariffs are just unbearable
Electricity is cheap when the consumer of electricity is located near the nuclear power plant. If electricity needs to be transported, intermediary services are required and losses occur. The Nuclear Power Plant needs Uranium-235 and its enrichment technology.
1745  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: America's first nuclear-powered bitcoin mining farm on: March 11, 2023, 12:25:11 PM
Interesting, I had no idea that Nuclear power is much cheaper at 2 cents per kilowatt-hour of power as compared to the U.S. industrial average of 9 cents/kWh or was this just as per the agreement with the nuclear company?

If Nuclear Energy is cheap, why aren't we seeing widespread use of it as compared to fossil fuel?
I don't think that nuclear energy is cheap because waste disposal is very expensive. If a company has the opportunity to bury waste on another continent and buy the necessary components inexpensively, then this is profitable. But hydropower looks more attractive.
1746  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Intel Tapes Out Chips on 1.8nm and 2nm Production Nodes on: March 11, 2023, 12:10:17 PM
Update 3/8/2023: Intel has pointed out a translation error with the report from UDN — the presentation shared with the press covered the previously-announced tape-out of internal test chips for the 18A and 20A process nodes, and test chips for a large potential foundry customer have taped out, and silicon is running in the lab. The development of the nodes is not final. We've amended the text below.
https://www.tomshardware.com/news/intel-completes-development-of-18a-20a-nodes
Intel has completed chip tape-outs of its Intel 18A (1.8nm-class) and Intel 20A (2nm-class) fabrication processes that will be used to make the company's products, as well as chips for clients of its Intel Foundry Services (IFS) division, reports .

Maybe mining on new processors will be profitable.
1747  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: ETHW vs ETC mining related questions for clarity on: March 11, 2023, 12:03:57 PM
ETC is an old coin and is more trustworthy among miners. Mining on ETC or ETHW video cards gives very little profit due to the emergence of new ASICs, so there is not much difference in profit. Now mining these coins is not profitable even at a cost of 6 cents.
1748  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Biden budget proposes 30% tax on crypto mining electricity usage on: March 10, 2023, 12:05:02 PM
The tax would be phased-in at 10% per year over three years and covers electricity generated from both on and off-grid sources.
United States crypto miners could eventually be subject to a 30% tax on electricity costs under a budget proposal by President Joe Biden aimed to “reduce mining activity.”

A Department of the Treasury supplementary budget explainer paper released March 9 said any firm using resources — whether they be owned or rented — would be “subject to an excise tax equal to 30 percent of the costs of electricity used in digital asset mining.”

1749  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: lolMiner 1.64: Fastest Kaspa miner in market on: March 10, 2023, 11:59:52 AM
Hi to everybody. I am trying LolMiner with four AMD 580 Sapphire Nitro e one 1660 super

This is the command line I use to mine
lolMiner.exe --algo ETCHASH --pool eu1-etc.ethermine.org:4444 --user .............worker --cclk 1100,1100,1100,-500,1100 --mclk 2140,2140,2090,+1040,2100

I don't know why LolMiner starts mining without considering core clock and memory clock values written in the command line, and so if I launch Afterburner all GPUs are shown with default values for core and memory clock

Why does this happen? Can anybody help me to solve this issue?
Thanks


The instructions say that such settings depend on the version of the driver.
As an old miner, I don’t like software that changes memory clock on the fly, so I upgrade the bios for the ethash or ethcash algorithm. And I don't use Windows. Try hive os or another system. 1 mining farm is always free.
Thanks. Problem is that under Linux I was not able to load driver, so I couldn't use AMD GPUs. About Hive Os, I never was able to configure it, for this reason I run miner under Windows.
What do you mean when you say "I upgrade the bios for the ethash or ethcash algorithm"?
Thanks again
There are a lot of detailed guides on setting up Hive Os on the Internet.
memory clock you can change in two ways. The first way is with the help of programs like OverdriveNTool or settings in the miner, but this does not always work correctly. The second way is to modify the BIOS of the video card and set the necessary memory clock in the BIOS of the video card. But then for windows you need to use atikmdag-patcher. Hive OS does not need patches.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r0jzvcRTqvQ

Yas, I know how to mod GPU Bios and I did it. Then I prefer to use MSI Afterburner than AMD RAdeon Tool that makes only troubles.
As I wrote, I use to set overclock values on commad line, but it seems that LolMiner is not able to consider them and runs GPUs with default values. I should try to use OverdriveNTool, but I don't know it.
Is there any guide about it?
Can you link to me any HiveOS guide really clear? Not that's on website since I tried several times to follow, but it never works
Thanks again

Rigel 1.3.9

(Nexa) Add --kernel parameter to switch between different nexapow implementations (see notes below)
Bug fixes:

(UI) dual mining view switch (e.g. nexapow <-> zil) is broken on Windows
Additional notes
Some GPUs saw an efficiency drop in v1.3.8 compared to v1.3.7. This release allows opting in for 1.3.7 performance level by selecting kernel #2 for the affected GPUs.
Example: --kernel _,_,2,_ <- this will enable the "1.3.7 mode" for the third GPU. The rest will work as before (v1.3.Cool.
If all your GPUs were working better on 1.3.7, then it's sufficient to set --kernel 2, it'll apply to all cards.
See --kernel parameter description in README.md or https://github.com/rigelminer/rigel for more details.

1752  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: Can new miners still make good profit? on: March 10, 2023, 11:33:36 AM
Of course they can: Provided they have VERY cheap electrical power. For the most part that rules out any home miners because residential service rates are typically 2-3x higher than commercial & industrial rates are. Even the commercial/industrial rates vary widely among the various states and countries.
I have inexpensive electricity 5 cents, but I have no great desire to buy ASICs. Mining in private homes will be prohibited. Mining is still banned in private homes, but there is no control if you do not consume a lot of electricity. The equipment is expensive and if a private house is checked, ASICs will be confiscated, and these are big risks.
1753  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: Technology to aid bitcoin mining on: March 10, 2023, 11:28:27 AM
Bitcoin mining consumes power supply but the numbers of Bitcoin miners and other cryptocurrency miners continues to increase.Is it possible for the invention of a technology that will aid mining and reduce energy consumption?
Bitcoin mining will develop if it is profitable. For mining, new modern nuclear power plants or other power generation stations will be built, but the price of electricity will also constantly rise.And mining will have to be concentrated in those countries where there will be opportunities to produce cheaper electricity.
1754  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: TP-Link ASIC is not TP-Link on: March 09, 2023, 11:54:56 AM
Any miner knows that you need to buy ASICs from certified sellers with a reputation and it is better to wait for a video review for miners. Even if a new ASIC appears on the market, there are always many questions about its reliability and maintenance.
1755  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Where I can buy Antminer E9 PRO? on: March 09, 2023, 11:47:55 AM

I used to do mining on video cards. I really want to continue mining, now on ASIC under ETC. It is impossible to buy on the official website. Where can I really buy e9 pro safely in China or America up to $3500?
If you visit China, then a lot of ASICs are sold at retail in shopping centers in Shenzhen. Delivery to my country costs 2 dollars per kilogram of weight and I also need to pay a customs duty of 15% of the cost of the equipment.
But it is better to search first in local groups for miners.
1756  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: REBTECH 8 GPU All-in-One Mining motherboard on: March 09, 2023, 11:40:51 AM
If you are a beginner, I would advise you to study a simpler and more inexpensive solution and you will not break this motherboard by incorrectly connecting the riser in the pci-e x1 connector
https://aliexpress.ru/popular/b75-motherboard-mining.html  
at $80 this is the perfect beginner kit for 12 GPU,and this motherboard has no problems with bios settings.

The REBTECH is simpler, it doesn't have PCIe_x1 slots, it uses USB connectors instead. There's no need for those flimsy PCIe adapter tabs.
I'd recommend a board that uses USB connectors for PCIe for a dedicated GPU mining rig, but one that can also accomodate a decent CPU for a hybrid rig.

On the other hand I wouldn't recommend a mining board for a newbie, I'd recommend a regular board with lots (up to 6) of PCIe slots. The newer boards
have fewer PCIe and more m.2 so I'd look for an m.2 to 4x PCIe adapter to support more GPUs if necessary.

If you lose interest in mining you can repurpose a regular motherboard. You can't do that with a dedicated mining board.
The b75 motherboard does not have PCIe x1 slots, they use 12 USB ports. On new motherboards, there are problems with the settings for running 6 GPUs at the same time, and newcomers have a lot of problems with this. Regular PC MOBOs with lots (up to 6) of PCIe slots are expensive. So I wrote a proven and inexpensive solution.

Incentivized Testnet Rewards Guide
The Iron Fish Incentivized Testnet is coming to an end. We've seen incredible participation and are so excited to take this next step with you.

First, some quick stats

In Phase 3, the network:

hosted 60,000+ concurrent nodes
processed 390k+ user-minted assets
Throughout the 3 testnet Phases:

142,000+ of you earned points on the leaderboard
You broke records, including 39,739,530 transactions in Phase 2 (all shielded using zero-knowledge proofs, making Iron Fish one of the largest processors of ZKPs ever)

https://www.ironfish.network/blog/2023/02/28/testnet-rewards

What good does it do bro... IronFish has officially announced at the AMA that it will not be listing coins for the next 24 months, no investments for investors and miners alike...
24 months is a very long time, but if you are an adventurer, you can mine some coins and wait for the price to rise. If you do not believe in this coin, then you should not mine it. The advantage of the algorithm is that it has a good hashrate on old video cards.
1759  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: best overclock settings for 7900xtx (for etc+zil mining in ezil) on: March 08, 2023, 12:47:52 PM
Your video card is not the most popular among miners, but the initial settings can be found on this site.
https://hashrate.no/gpus/7900xtx/ETC
for zil mining these settings will be good because mining takes a very short time.
It is more profitable for your video card to mine каspa now, and the power consumption is lower
https://hashrate.no/gpus/7900xtx
And for accurate power consumption, I use a wattmeter. It costs approximately $10.
