I don't think any of us will truely ever stop. I personally have stopped GPU mining for the moment till I replace my PC around Christmas time. But I am still leaving burst to mine. Got to be doing something!

if we all stop, the coin will return profit  Grin

You guys all stop. I, in the meanwhile, with my free electricity, will just silently continue.

Please add Prohashing.com if possible.  They seem to provide realtime profitability statistics.

Single algo (Scrypt), doesn't appear to have an API, and charges nearly 5% fee.  Umm, no thanks.
lol, sums up my thoughts exactly   Cheesy

Does anyone else use this software for ASIC?  I realize most of the program's utility is geared towards GPU miners, but I'd imagine I'm not the only one looking to pool switch on Scrypt only.

I'm guessing it wouldn't be too hard for asics to use this, just point it at the miner, change the .conf accordingly, and put a 0 for all the hashing speeds of the other algos. But you probably are a minority in this thread, and I don't know how much sense it would make to develop things specifically for that minority. Of course, if the dev has enough time, he is free to do so, more functionality is never wrong.

hi guys
is there any point in enabling waffle pool in the config? since its not live api, isnt there a chance i will not be making top $ mining it if its previous (but currently shown stat) isn't as high as it really is.

Also, any chance on getting Mutlipool and Blackpool (Blackcoin) on board?

I use a weight of 0.8 for wafflepool to correct for possibly lower prices.

Multipool does seem to haven an API, so it is possible, but I do not know how often it updates.

Blackpool pays out in Blackcoin, and for this tool it needs to be BTC. I guess it could be worked in by converting blackcoin prices to BTC, but that would just make it more complicated

unfortunately they have only one server option, with its port

Oh well, looking at the screenshot you posted, you're not losing big amounts of mining time, so I doubt it will affect your profits that much.

i'm trying scrypt, and i'm getting this, which shouldn't be normal, others algo work great


Doesn't that happen when the miner switches blocks and there is a delay?
+1 or bad connection with the pool

yeah everytime it happen there is "stratum  detected a new block"

that delay is from the pool? or is a problemi with my pc?

Most likely somewhere between you and the pool-server, with a possibility of it being the pool itself. Does your pool have multiple regional servers? Then try one of the other servers, preferably closer to your location, perhaps that will solve it.

Get ready for Killer Blake(x11,x13,x15) etc.

Here are 5'tIs in action with standard clocks mining x11.
I have only optimized the first hash function of the 11 hash'es.

1. Hash rewritten in 100% assembly language and tweaked for the 750 TI
2. Removed latency and improved superscalar performance.
3. Removed stupid code

Note that the blake hash is probobly around 400% faster than ccminer 1.2.

Will keep the miner private for now.



does it mean x11 is 400% faster ? Or are you just running on blake privately ?



i dont think so. Screen shot show x11  about 3000 kh
3 months for an optimized blake, we should get the fully optimized for the 750ti x11 in 2years... great  Grin (don't sell them yet  Grin)

Do these improvements also work for older cards, namely CUDA 3.5?

I just noticed, but the wafflepool X13 price keeps being 0, leading to the rest of the calculations being 0 as well. Am I the only with this?

Guys What do you mine now, i was minig for 2 months monero , but the price is so low. Please suggest a coin for 6xti750.

U can try XCN it's a very good coin

Also take a look at https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=769239.0. It's a great tool for just general profit. If you want a specific coin, I can't help you, sorry.

Guys, what do you think is a good weight for Wafflepool, due to the 24 hour average stats? I myself chose for 0.8, but should it be higher/lower?

The donation miner, does it mine against the same address as to which we could manually donate, or is it a separate address?
32  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Miner Control 1.2.0 - Auto profit switching miner controller on: October 06, 2014, 06:25:50 AM
Upgrading as I type. Thanks for all the work!

fake  Undecided

I prefer the word "tuned" or "overclocked"


Don't forget to test if they run stable under a big load. Wouldn't want them to crash after long and intense use, now would you?

A user wouldn't have to change the code to remove donation mining, just set the donation percentage to "0".

The process will be transparent and configurable by the user.  Here is how I plan to implement it.

There will be two configuration parameters, "donationpercentage" and "donationfrequency".  The percentage will default to "2" and the frequency will default to "240".  While in auto mode, at the end of each frequency of minutes, the miner will stop and restart mining against the donation address and continue for the percentage of that frequency of time.  With the defaults, it means that after 3 hours, 55.2 minutes of auto mining it will mine against the donation address on whatever is paying best for 4.8 minutes and then switch back to the user's address.

The code messiness will come from the time accounting side to make sure I only mine in donation mode at the set intervals for the set amount of time.

Does the program remember the total time, or does it reset whenever you hit the stop button. I, when I use the rig, often have to stop and start the program again due to fluctuations in need. If the counter resets, it would cause the donation time to be postponed again and again.

StuffOfInterest, how's the code cleanup coming along? Still not ready for open-source?

Getting close.  Before I put the code out there I want to get the donation mining integrated in.  This is going to require tweaking quite a bit of code, more than I had originally expected, so there will have to be some more cleanup after that.

I'm starting to get myself familiar with git and GitHub now as that is how I plan to release the source code.  I've worked with TFS and SVN for version control previously but git has become more or less the standard for open source projects, so this seems like a good time to start using it.  I've already manged to integrate local code in Visual Studio with the online repository a couple of different ways so now I need to spin up on how git handles branching and merging so that the main code line will be release quality while work in progress can still be out there.  That's also how I'll hopefully be able to open up for other people to contribute code.

How will you go about the donation mining? Mine most profitable to your address X time each day? And because it will be opensource, some people will just yank out the donation mining, especially if it is too much. Also, and this seems obvious, but I am going to say it anyway: Let it only donation mine when it is in auto-mode, or if a service is manually started, only on that algo (perhaps a more profitable pool, but still), because I sometimes stop the mining, or switch to a specific algo, for when I want that added stability or lessened load when I do something else on the rig, like watching youtube or editing text, etc.

Still, many thanks for the awesome work you're doing!

StuffOfInterest, I have send you a little something for Miner Control. It ain't much, but it beats nothing, I guess Smiley
38  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] cudaMiner & ccMiner CUDA based mining applications [Windows/Linux/MacOSX] on: September 27, 2014, 11:25:10 AM
I mine because I like the idea of cryptocurrency, and also to pay a part of my Humble Bundles. Using the currency, instead of hoarding it, would indicate that it is worth your time as a store or other sales something to invest into bitcoin, to accept it. At least, I would imagine it does. And considering that I have practically free electricity, I do not have costs to break even. However, I am just a part-time miner, and I mine off my gaming rig. I have not invested in rigs or equipment specific for mining.

Perhaps a small feature request:
Check the balances the pools give, and compare it to what it should be, according to your calculations. Based on that, suggest a weight. For Nice- and Westhash, this could be done on a per-algo basis. You would have to change the .conf file yourself, and of course the program wouldn't remember the number after restarting, but still, I think it would be nice to have.

Interesting idea but one big problem.  What if you have more than one machine mining to the same account?  For one machine this would be possible, just capture the balance when we start mining an algorithm and then divide the change by time as we mine.  Unfortunately, if another miner adds to that balance everything gets thrown out of wack.

I happen to be a part-time miner, from my gaming rig Smiley.

As for the problem, and this will be a suggestion only feasible in long term, depending on how far you want to go, but perhaps Miner Control could have a controlling function over multiple rigs, over the home network maybe? That way it could integrate multiple rigs. Or perhaps via the internet, but that's even harder to set-up, I would think. Not sure though, not a programmer myself.
