A few years ago, 2-3 cards was a small miner. But times have changed. Look at bitcoin gold. 500 000 gpu's out of nowhere. There are millions of minable dollars every day for the miners to collect, and the farms keep growing. A few months ago my spreadcoin mod did $15 dollars a day per 1080ti card, and the clondyke lasted for months. when you make $30 a day with just two cards you can buy another card in less than 1 month.

with 12 cards you will roi in 17 days.

12 cards is a small miner. (1-2 rigs)

Use some of the mining profit to buy more cards.

To increase your profit. Do you want a 35MHASH bitcore miner? Or do you want a 31MHASH bitcore miner?

The point is that #4 is faster, but it use more power and you need to run with the correct launch configuration.

every algo needs to be tuned differently.

You need to find out why your card is trottleing. Open gpuz and check the perfCap reason. Reboots and freezes is often caused by lack of power or missing powered risers, or that you have to many powered risers on the same cable in the psu. Tune the rig with one card first. Then add more cards later.

The intensities has changed in sp4. (memory usage has been reduced in the kernel code) To run at full speed You need to run with -i 25 and not -i 20. sp4 also need alot of oc on the memory. -500 on mem is slow. +750 is good.

blake2s is not abandoned

sp-mod #1 and #2 are unstable and not supported anymore. #3 and #4 are working fine. Bitcore is using more power than other algos so you need powered risers and bigger psu's. If not you need to run at reduced tdp and intensity, and then you loose hashrate..

The first bitcore sp-mod was made by me right after the launch of bitcore back in may. So the first donators have recieved 4 mod's in 6 months and the opensource haven't improved since then. A mod can last for months/years and stay profitable. I have done 20 algos, and most of them give a bether income than ethereum and equihash. The best sp-mod is currently around 100% more profitable than mining bitcoin gold. (equihash)

Sp-mod #4 is peaking at 22.2 MHASH on the gigabyte g1 gaming with 100% tdp and oc. (micron memory)

1x 1080ti mining bitcore
 
ccminer 2.2 (free open source): 25MHASH
ccminer sp-mod #4: 33MHASH


if you have 100 rigs with 1080ti. (600 cards) you boost your hasrate with 4800 MHASH per day with the same power usage.

And you will ROI in less than 8 hours.

with 100 cards you will ROI in 2 days.
with 50 cards you will ROI in 4 days
with 25 cards you will ROI in 8 days
with 12 cards you will roi in 17 days.

Expensive?

Bitcore is trading at $41 $48 I wouldn't be surprised if the value rise to $150 (bitcoin gold).

the hashrate on the pool is reduced several times per day. Has been like this for days now.. Any comments from the pool operator? With these attacks you loose, 10-15% compared to the calculator if you mine @ yiimp.

bitcore +62% today. Nice mining profit with the sp-mod...

I wonder what these countries have in common since they are banned from the okcoin exchange 

North Korea, Syria,Iran,Sudan, Bangladesh, Bolivia, Ecuador, Kyrgyzstan and USA

Expensive? 28% more profit for $300. (bitcore sp-mod) I call that cheap...

Nice boost in the phi algo today. (LUX COIN)

Mine with the sp-mod (0.05btc donation)

I want my donators to ROI their investment. A happy miner will return for more. Small miners should buy more cards. Bigger miners should try to improve the perfomance of their rigs. Private kernels is one way to do that..

+400% since the first pink discussion. Bitcoin pink is bether than bitcoin gold right?
Shut up and collect your insider take in the game..

A free kernel with a fee is good for me and not for you. All the miners share the same pot of coins. A private kernel is most profitable when it stay private.
