21  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Z9 list of working pools/Fork updates on: October 19, 2018, 10:27:51 AM
I switched my Z9 minis (6) about 2 weeks ago, and happy with BTC :-)

are you saying that your z9's mine zcash and prohashing pays you in btc?


At prohashing you can mine zcash only or even better multiswitch between coins for equihash algorithm and you choose which other coins you wan't it converted to like BTC and or LTC and or ...
You set this in "settings".

The conversion is done at once.
You follow this "live" under "earnings".

 i really like the idea of prohash but i looked and they are giving 13 cents per kwh. a z9 mini at 10 sols  = 1.30 perday. what am i  missing?

They don't pay per kwh !

And what does the pool you use pay per kwh ?

what am I missing ?

And how many in this forum runs their z9 mini's at 10ksol/s ?

go to https://prohashing.com/ and check for yourself

plus, i was giving an example of 10ksols to keep it simple ass. i have 200 z9's and spend everyday at my farm tweaking the sols so shut your small pie hole.

To begin with...
If you take that tone against someone trying to help and answer your questions, then just f_ck off!!!


IF you would READ:
https://prohashing.com/help.html


You would SEEEEE this:
"Make the Most Money Possible

Prohashing not only merge mines coins, but distributes users among different coin networks with a custom algorithm that prevents mined coins from crashing in value or soaring in difficulty. Prohashing monitors every coin with every price change and every new block. The algorithm recalculates profitability multiple times per second, ensuring that the pool is always mining the most profitable coin using the most up to date information. Our debt to you is locked in the coin you choose at the time of earning, so you have no risk if the coins we mine with your hashrate decline in value."


AND THIS:

"Get Paid in Any Coin
Choose to be paid in Bitcoins, Litecoins, Dogecoins, Ethereum, Monero, DASH, and over 200 other coins, or have fractions of your income distributed across several payout coins. Other multipools only allow payout in one coin at a time. Our simple system allows you to be paid in the coin you want to be paid"


AND THIS:

"Work Restart Optimization
Prohashing's system considers network latency and "spin up" time in computing the optimal coin for your miners to mine. Some ASICs incur a significant delay after a block is found, during which they perform no mining. This delay can make mining coins with short block times unprofitable for such miners. Prohashing tests your miner and determines the most profitable coin for your specific hardware. Prohashing also automatically determines how many coins to merge mine so that work restarts don't cause losses in primary coin profitability."


AND THIS:
"c" (setting a specific coin) (If you set this without m=solo mining mode you miss out on prohashing multiswitching)

"Since the purpose of static coin mining is to allow customers to mine on a single network, static coin mining is limited to one coin per IP address per period of time. The amount of time required between mining a static coin and being allowed to switch to the next coin varies. Prohashing's terms of service prohibits the creation of automatic software to switch between static coins, because doing so may reduce the profitability of dynamic coin miners. Manually configuring software to mine one static coin for long periods of time is allowed."

AND THIS:
"m" (setting mining mode) (m=solo mode requires "c=" setting of a specific coin for the algorithm in question)
   
"Sets the mining mode. There are two valid values, "pps" and "solo." "pps" is the default if this argument is omitted, and operates this worker in the normal "pay per share" mode. When "m=solo," the worker functions as a solo miner for this network. It mines at the network difficulty, and each hash is either too easy, or it is a found block. No money is earned for shares that do not find blocks.

When blocks are found by this worker, the account is credited with 97.01% of the entire (block reward + transaction fees) for the found block. Merge-mined blocks in solo mode are still paid per share whether you find a solo block or not. In solo mode you should notice that you are continually receiving small amounts of earnings in the primary coin even when you haven't yet found find any blocks. This is due to others finding merge-mined blocks. It's estimated that by the time a user finds a merge-mined block themselves, they will have earned 95.01% of that merge-mined blocks rewards over time in pay per share mode of other merge mined blocks. This percentage will be less if you found a solo block sooner than expected, or more if it took longer than expected to find a solo block due to luck.

Pool fees for "solo" mode (2.99%) are lower because the variance is passed onto the miner, and because fewer transaction fees, exchange fees, and other business expenses are incurred.
Solo mode provides a simple way to set up miners to support a particular coin network and solo mine without having to install and connect a coin daemon, or go through complex pool setup yourself. Solo mode also provides greater profit than does setting up a single-coin pool because you receive bonuses from coins that were merge-mined. Merge mining usually earns about 5-10% of primary coin mining, so using solo mode at Prohashing will average about 110% of earnings expected with a single-coin pool. When using "solo" mode, payout proportions are ignored for this worker.
Merge-mining profits for solo mining are credited immediately. Profits for the primary coin are not credited until the block is confirmed. Some networks require as long as 720 blocks for confirmation, so confirmation time can range between 5 minutes and 3 days. Because solo mining passes on the variance to the miner, orphaned blocks are not credited to earnings.

The "c=" parameter must be present to use "m=solo." If c= is not present or if the specified coin does not exist, then this argument will be ignored. If the target coin is not enabled for payouts or is in error, the worker will be disconnected so that it can fail over to a backup pool."


AND THIS:
"Accomplishing Specific Goals:

- To earn as much money as possible: Use no password arguments other than the "n=" argument, which specifies a worker name. The mining software contains a lot of code to detect miner settings and can usually do a better job at optimizing mining than a human can.

 - In lieu of setting up a pool for your new coin: Use "c=[coin name] m=solo." These arguments are equivalent to installing a daemon on your local computer, and earn more profit than local solo mining because merge-mining rewards are also credited to your account.

- To support a coin network without as much risk: Use "c=[coin name]" and set payout proportions to 100% in that coin. In contrast to "solo mode," mining in PPS mode provides constant rewards even if your miner finds no blocks, and still earns merge-mining rewards, in exchange for a higher fee.

- Working around KNC Titan limitations: Use "h=3" or "h=5." KNC Titans exhibit poor performance with easy coins that have frequent blocks."


AND THIS:
"Suboptimal Shares

Prohashing has implemented an algorithm to reduce the effect of stale shares as much as possible, even for users with slower internet connections. Since the pool merge-mines coins, and because each network changes blocks at different intervals requiring a work restart each time, the number of work restarts increases in proportion to the number of merge mined coins. Without intervention, the increase in work restarts would increase the number of stale shares, negating much of the advantage of merge mining.

To combat this issue, Prohashing allows suboptimal shares to be submitted. In the case of a suboptimal share, instead of completely rejecting the share because the hash for one of the coins was invalid, the pool credits you for the coins for which your work was valid. For example, if you are merge mining CHNcoin and Dogecoin, CHNcoin has a new block while Dogecoin does not, and then you submit an otherwise stale share, you will still be credited for the work on the Dogecoin network since that hash is still valid for Dogecoin. Accepting suboptimal shares allow miners to earn some money for shares that other pools would outright reject. The only time you will see a stale share with Prohashing is when all coins mined have changed blocks before your miner submits a share.

You can spot suboptimal shares in your earnings when you see a share where only one coin was mined. You can reduce suboptimal shares the same way you reduce stale shares - by improving the miner's internet connection."


AND THIS:
"Orphan Bonuses

Prohashing provides orphan bonuses, a technique that reduces the pool's rate of orphaned blocks. It is a variation of a system called "selfish mining," which is used by pool operator Clevermining. While selfish mining is not optimal for pools that mine multiple coins, the orphan bonus variation allows Prohashing to increase profitability.

In orphan bonus mining, miners receive increased payouts whenever one of Prohashing's blocks is orphaned. The payout for the next block is equal to the value of the previous block at the current price plus the value of the current block. Prohashing attempts to mine the next block on top of its previous orphaned block, therefore earning both the previous block's income and the current block's income if the current block is found. If the second block is also orphaned, then the expected value of the next block will be around three times normal. Miners end up being paid more, and the orphan rate of the pool is reduced, therefore making the coin more likely to be mined in the future. The profitability of a coin in all Prohashing charts is automatically adjusted for the orphan mining state, if it is present. No miner action is required to take advantage of this feature"

guys, between the bitmain Z9 and the innosillicon A9, considering i have free electricity and buying price is not a factor to take into consideration, which one would you chose?

i know the obvious choise would be the A9 because of more hashrate, but actually overclocking the Z9 you can get more hashrate, no?

Does prohashing still require you to fill out kyc info and send you a 1099?

Read under settings:
"U.S. Internal Revenue Service Information
Please indicate if you are a resident of the United States or if you qualify according to IRS guidelines found here:

I really dont understand that.. and where do i get the worker names?.. Sorry for the multi questions but its so much different than the other pools i have used..
Thank you

For more information like mining single coin you read "help" on prohashing.com site.
(Port 3336 is for Equihash algorithm)


Miner number 1
Pool 1:
URL: stratum+tcp://prohashing.com:3336
Worker: your_login_name_at_prohashing.com
Password: n=miner001

Miner number 2
Pool 1:
URL: stratum+tcp://prohashing.com:3336

Password: n=miner002

Miner number 3
Pool 1:

Worker: your_login_name_at_prohashing.com
Password: n=miner003

and so on ...
Thank you so much I will have a go.. Smiley

Ps whats the port for mining multi coins where do i find that?.. Thank you again

When you choose a port for an Algorithm like port 3336 for Equihash it WILL be multiswitch UNLESS you specify a specific coin for the chosen ports algorithm like this:
Miner number 1
Pool 1:
URL: stratum+tcp://prohashing.com:3336
Worker: your_login_name_at_prohashing.com
Password: n=miner001 c=zcash

In the line Password you can see "c=zcash"

I never heard of pro hashing but will give it a look.

we should have a couple of us point x number of miners to different pools and give  72 hrs and cross check the results to see what pools are better

Sounds like a great idea but because different latency and geographic location it's better if a few people with a few of the same type/speed miners do it themself and give a geographic approximation because then result will say more about which pool will give best/most stable result wherever your miners are and perhaps also what internetspeed/bandwidth.

I might have missunderstood something in your idea. Perhaps uoe ment what I said !?

I don't have enough to do this, sorry to say but my experimenting and the fact that I use autoexchange to BTC + LTC prohashing is the best solution for me as far as I know today !

I do like the sound of Prohashing.. I have setup an account, but what URL should i use for multi port mining? and what is that password argument?.. I really dont understand that.. and where do i get the worker names?.. Sorry for the multi questions but its so much different than the other pools i have used..
Thank you

For more information like mining single coin you read "help" on prohashing.com site.
(Port 3336 is for Equihash algorithm)


Miner number 1
Pool 1:
URL: stratum+tcp://prohashing.com:3336
Worker: your_login_name_at_prohashing.com
Password: n=miner001

Miner number 2
Pool 1:
URL: stratum+tcp://prohashing.com:3336
Worker: your_login_name_at_prohashing.com
Password: n=miner002

Miner number 3
Pool 1:
URL: stratum+tcp://prohashing.com:3336
Worker: your_login_name_at_prohashing.com

Folk,

Quick update -- this is a snippet of the startup log from the machine I'm currently working on. Of note here is the part in bold, "freq=". One board is running at 650Mhz, the other 2 are running at 500Mhz. Unfortunately the API that feeds the web interface does not output these numbers, but instead outputs whatever is set for the main frequency.... so the web interface currently is still showing 650.

Regardless -- this is much closer to working now.

Whats the latest on pools to use guys?... I am on Slushpool Zcash mining.. what are your thoughts to multi port Mining Pool Hub?.. I tried it for a while and figured i am better mining a single coin...ZhashPro looks and works well too for Zcash and ZEN..
Just wondering what you guys are mining for best profitability? 
Cheers
I use prohashing.com with multiswitch for equihash algorithm and autoexchange to BTC + LTC.

nanopool.org as backup pool mining ZEC(Zcash).

and finally

MPH with multiswitch for equihash algorithm and autoexchange to BTC as last backup pool.

Hey

i have some money on paypal and for taxes reason i'd rather not withdraw the money, i'd rather buy a miner online
but i see that most websites only accept bank transfer or cryptos

do you know of any reputable website that accept paypal (preferably in europe) ?

I started buying some BTC on localbitcoin but really is not an option since the spread is just TOO HIGH it's crazy

Thanks

33  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: How to reduce stale shares?? on: October 18, 2018, 09:37:18 AM
Hello guys! I've been looking around for a simple explanation on how to reduce the stale shares I am getting or any info around it, have been also browsing youtube for some videos, but in 90% of the videos I've only heard what a stale share is without any tips on how to reduce or fix those?
I've been watching my performance rate on ethermine.org and I've seen that my stale share are somewhere around 3-14 per hour. It is not constantly 9+ per hour. I've seen time frames where the stale shares were below 2/3, but mostly they are above 8 and I don't think that's optimal, because they are almost 10% of the shares I am submitting to the pool, which is a lot imo.
If any of you knows how to fix that, I'd be really glad if you could help me out! I've been struggling with my rig for the last 2 weeks or so and I really want to optimize everything.
Thanks for taking the time reading this thread!

Hello friend,

I have problem with your FW. FAN speed = 100% and temp is bad

https://www.imageupload.co.uk/images/2018/10/16/z9mini2.png

Please help me


Do you understand this thread is for the Z9 (not Z9 mini) ? ? ?

And for z9 mini you should be in this thread:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4610213.msg46938023#msg46938023
and there you will find permanent link to the may 26 firmware for the z9 MINI.


Ou ups! Thx for info ;-) For Z9 mini is same problem :-( after flash FW from batch 1 is temp 0 C and fan on maximal rpm

Have you UNchecked "keep settings" ?
Does it help ?

Have you downloaded latest from Bitmain and tested with UNchecked "keep settings" ?
https://service.bitmain.com/support/download?product=Antminer%20Z9%20mini

carefully Jiggle cables at fan connector on controllerboard, does it help with fan ?

If problem reading temp for system I guess it will run fan at 100% to protect components so...
carefully jiggle cables from hashboard at connector both on hashboard's AND connectors on controllerboard.

does anything help?

did problem occur when you flashed new firmware ?

try hardware factory restore:

36  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Antminer Z9 mini overclocked on: October 16, 2018, 07:33:54 AM
I have one Z9 mini September 2018 batch with firmware dated Sun Aug 12 17:43:41 CST 2018. Although the only GUI option is "Balanced", I can configure OC with web editor to any speed with the best speed being at 675 MHz and 95% fan speed for best cooling and is producing a stable 15-16kH/s hashing speed. I received three October 2018 batch minis today and the maximum OC speed in the GUI is the "balanced" setting of 500 MHz but can only be raised to 550 MHz using html editor. The miner will reject and revert to 500 MHz if any other number is attempted. Of course, the "Aug 12 17:43:41 CST 2018" firmware is no longer available on the Bitmain website which was replaced with the Aug 31, 2018 firmware which is what is on my new batch. I tried to save a config backup from the older device and restore to the new one but had no affect whatsoever. Did anyone happen to obtain the Aug 12, 2018 firmware before it was replaced and might it run as desired on the newer Z9 mini? The new Z9 minis are hashing at a consistent 12-13 kH/s at 550 MHz which is about 20% below the 15-16kH/s at 675 MHz. I may just have to live with that.

As far as I know Bitmain have only had may 26 and aug 31 firmware's as downloadable.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4610213.msg45735658#msg45735658

Permanent LINK:
Z9 mini, Batch 1 stock firmware (as far as I know the first downloadable original firmware which I downloded from Bitmains support-site), will be permanently available at: http://releases.broked.net/antminer-z9-mini-201805262047-500m.tar.gz
(thanks to efudd)

About the one running aug 12 firmware - when it works don't change anything !
37  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Inno A9 Zmaster Fan Speed Help on: October 16, 2018, 04:29:19 AM
I had the same issue, and this DOES work perfectly.  Fan runs at a constant 30% now and is not chasing the target.

You have to add a comma (,) at the end of the ("api-allow": "R:0/0,W:127.0.0.1") line; its not in the original conf file.

For first, thank you for help!

Second, ofc everyone is smart now.

Third, chill out, it's not your miners.. It isn't something like personal folder, photos.. Somebody hacked me, and what? Now it's everything OK, miners work for me, IP hidden.

Great that everything works and only things needed was a hardware reset + having IP's hidden to fix it.

Fingers crossed that it will stay like that !

About how long did you have the A9's running with public IP before they got hacked ?
39  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Inno A9 Zmaster login issue, falling on: October 15, 2018, 07:15:44 PM

1. I have a public IP address assigned to my miners (they are in external "warehouse" of IT company), so that I can remotely manage them but after a while the logon stops functioning.. Maybe few days working well.. Even did not help HW reset, shutdown, power on, etc.. The login page is loaded but after clicking on login nothing is happening but miners obviously minning when I check them on the pool page, BUT - point 2



You have miners facing the internet, OF COURSE YOU GOT HACKED. Thats about the dumbest possible thing you can do. Miners run precompiled tiny versionf of linux that are never updated or patched. Any vunerability in the code will be there forever. The fact that you put these onto public internet IPs blows my mind. There is literally not a worse choice you could have made than this. I would never trust those miners again without replacing the controllers themselves now that they are infected.

You are so right!
Everything on the Internet is hacked Public IP or not!

I don't think it's a coincidense that there are so many bugs all the time or that there are so many critical endpoints on the Internet that are hacked so easily and running systems that never get updated and therefore guarantees that those in power have their backdoors.

I would call it conspiracy FACTS because if it wasn't a conspiracy all code and hardware would be mathamatically proven and inplemented as such a long time ago ! ! !

Most often it's the Five Eyes, Mossad, Russia, The nameless China Intelligence Agency thanks to all implanted backdoors in all "Made in China" hardware thanks to Deep State and the Globalists who run the world and moved all production to Asia.

Then you have every company, government, organisations and almost EVERYONE WW who willingly share their data to third parties for money/power/influence/beeing naive/or whatever and everyone else are hacked and have their data stolen.

But I guess you never been a newbie ?
I guess you never made any mistakes ?

If you think for one moment that your systems NOT are compromised in a way that thoose in power actually could get or already have all the information they need from you / want about you; then I would say you are naive !

And by the way, thanks for all the help you gave him, NOT !

Nothing personal, but perhaps you should be more helpful and less of what you shown here Wink

Ou talk with me english please  Grin Grin Grin, its too complicated for me..

HW factory reset we can find in inno manual - Press IP button for +- 8 sec..

So will see how long will asics stable - i waiting for 20:00  Grin Grin

If problem after 20:00 do portscan.
If problem after 20:00 but ok login then do factory restore from web interface and see if problem solved !?

If hijacked I believe it would show on a portscan if same hijacker.

Fingers crossed !
