yeah no reconnect in the last several minutes.  Webpage shows the coin greyed out.  Hope all is well on the server front.

I think I just noticed you reboot the decred deamon =)

ccminer-DCD.exe -r 0 -a decred -i 24 -o stratum+tcp://mine.zpool.ca:5744 -u 1PHSDYvVp6HpqtuUPocK41DrdeHbbezaeP -p c=BTC,d=1,decred=1.8


I use ccminer; and copied the decred optimized version to my folder and just appended the name as seen above.  the balancing is as per the pool payout statistics, so 1.8 is the Ghash amount my video card puts out.  if you put out .5Ghash, it would be 0.5... etc.

This is the string I use with my GTX980.   If you wish the machine to be responsive, back intensity off to ~17-20 example being -i 20 as a change.

Download the latest DCR capable nvidia miner and check within the last few pages for the string I use to run it.  Shouldn't be simpler than that offhand.

I can't point you where I downloaded mine as I didn't keep a record...

I don't see why it won't work.  Assuming you are mining DCR

Its not about profit.   Laptops are simply not designed to be run at 100% 24/7.  They will fail.  Quickly.

I'm very much for people mining on whatever possible;


But I highly advise against mining with a laptop unless you are using an external PCIE adapter (they make em) and a non-integrated graphics card.

It may work at first;  but heatsoak will kill your laptop.

Ive done it with CPU and GPU mining.... and so far I have destroyed 4 laptops.

Why not halve the reward and produce blocks twice as fast instead?

How would this effect the ecosystem aside from having a slight amount more data waste per block than with a larger block (header vs block data ratio)?

I don't see this hurting the ecosystem or the miners......   In fact, speeding up coins helps miners with averaging and consistency in payout times.

I tried jumpering the pin to - but it didn't power up... Very strange.  I hope I didnt get a faulty one...  But it was free.  And the pin on the datasheet I found originally is the very same .5mm short pin (at the end of the connector)  I already labeled the +, - and 5V rails.

I can make a breakout board for it;  does anyone have the connector part number to be able to interface with it?  That's where I kind of got lost on my attempt to make one.  But if someone knows of a good part number......  Ill just whip up my own at that point....  I haven't had the chance to etch my own board since High school so why not do it myself.

He hasnt said where he gets them from or how many he has access to;  but hes brought me a lot of good priced hardware in the past.  He keeps bringing batches of gridseed blades to the US from china to sell as well.

In my case im doing this with my GTX980 for cross reference:

ccminer.exe -r 0 -a lyra2v2 -i 17.3 -o stratum+tcp://mine.zpool.ca:4533 -u 1PHSDYvVp6HpqtuUPocK41DrdeHbbezaeP -p c=BTC,d=1,lyra2v2=9.6

Above you were omitting the "v2" in lyra2v2.  I did this before and had share and profit switching issues.

I got my hands on one of these as a test sample.   My friend says he has access to a LOT of them I believe.

Supermicro PWS-1K41P-1R





Anyone know if these need any sort of external input to power on?  The power LED lights when plugged in, but the 12V rail doesn't put anything out.

Anyone worked with these?  Any adapters out there?

I believe worker names are not supported;  or rather;  they arent to be attached to the login name as they do no good.  I havent had any issues before adding one;  but I know ive been told by crackfoo that they arent used.

Just point all your miners at the same username and all mined funds will be payed out to that account =)

something is off on the pool stats for DECRED.

When we seem to be generating a lot of blocks in good amounts of time (good luck);

On the page it shows decred profitability next to the coin itself on the left.   Should be between 4.xxx and 5.xxx when it's 2.xxx

It seems to read lower the better the pool luck is.....   am I the only one seeing this?

yeah when I got home my machine was fine and mining;  site worked flawlessly.

It was strange because the clousflare prompt said my browser and everything was fine, but there was an error to the site.

Anyways;  thanks!  Sorry for the issue... lol

Website down; cloudflare says connection error.

I dont mind at all!  Not much.  maybe a few thousand satoshis =)

I only noticed because I was remotely walking my friend through normalizing machines up in sf.   Ill ultimately bring them home and babysit them for him. Got almost 4Gh of decred now =)

Someone is mining to my 1PHS account on neoscrypt.


Not complaining... just saying it aint me

I'm interested in this:  Anyone have a link to a discussion about this?  Or some quick tips?

My buddy has been getting dropped from the pool on the scrypt port and has no clue why.  its connecting to NiceHash just fine....

I know hes running a 25Mh G-blade a pair of orbs and a gridseed blade (5Mh)...  Not sure if hes still running the G-blade off a pc or if he finally replaced the built in pi that was damaged during shipping.

Prior to your vacation and the switch over he wasn't having any issues.

I do mine via command line...  and am more familiar with intensity settings;  I have mine dialed back to have my box still usable.  Its my one powerhouse in the house;  Ill probably be upgrading it soon though.

Im sure others could comment.

He's on vacation as per a few replies back.

I have two S3's currectly connected to the pool and hashing fine.

Why are you mining with a video card to port 3333?  Seems very wasteful......  but im probably interpreting wrong what you are trying to convey.

If your antminers have extranonce, try adding #xnsub to the stratum line;  and be sure to use a proper formatted password.   I can't see why people are having connection issues as I havent been having any myself;  and I go through a cellular or satellite link;  which is by far not optimal and the most problematic.

I just googled one and downloaded it....  The miner apps are all listed by name in the batch example.   Should be easy to find the current version.
