Readme!!!.txt: -mode Select mining mode: "-mode 0" (default) means dual Ethereum + Decred/Siacoin/Lbry mining mode. "-mode 1" means Ethereum-only mining mode. You can set this mode for every card individually, for example, "-mode 1-02" will set mode "1" for first and third GPUs (#0 and #2). For systems with more than 10 GPUs: use letters to specify indexes more than 9, for example, "a" means index 10, "b" means index 11, etc.

Cloud mining is a scam. Lots of people have problems. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PLY7GuNLCVIIn December 2017 for $4,000 you could have built a mining rig with 10 RX 580's that would mine XMR at 9000 H/s, mining 1-2 XMR per month AND you can still currently sell the hardware for close to what you paid for it!

It depends on the Miner. Claymore's miners index the cards according to how they are listed in GPU-Z or Afterburner. Some older miners like sgminer or ccminer list them in different orders. The easiest way I've found to find out which card corresponds to each index is turn the fans up and down on each card to make note which index it's being listed under in the miner. Another way is to disable cards in the miner one by one and see which one's aren't heating up.

If you use a specific address for mining BTC, BCH, ETH, ETC, DASH, LTC DOGE ot NMC it's very simple to import your mining income in to Bitcoin.tax. When you import an address from one of theose coins, it will treat all incoming transaction from 2017 as mining income and determine the FMV at the time it was received. For other coins you can imort a core wallet .csv file or upload your own csv file with the pool payout transactions. The latter works for almost any coin that is listed on coinmarket cap. If you only have a few transactions for a coin, you can also input them manually.
If you latter traded your mined coins for other coins or sold them for fiat, you can import the exchange data from Bittrex, Binnace, Poloniex, Coinbase, GDAX, Kraken, etc. or manually and Bitcoin.tax will keep track of your positions to determine your capital gains. After you import all your data, it will generate a Form 8949 statement with all your trades and calculate any short-term or long-term gains. Very easy and straight forward to use.

Cards are stiil way overpriced compared to what they were at the end of last year. Once the new cards come out in July-August, you will take a huge loss buying cards at those prices. The only cards I would consider buying for mining right now are used cards that are priced at less than the MSRP they were selling for at the end of last year.

Windows System Restore will set aside several GB if enabled. Windows error logs can also eat up several GB's of space. If the driver ever crashes on my rigs it creats an error log over 1GB. I use CCleaner to delete all the temp and error log files. Ever with a 24GB space of Virtual Memory set, a Windows 10 install should use <64 GB.

xmr-stak is licensed under the GPL, which requires the source code to be distributed with the executable. Without it there is no way for anyone to know if you changed the dev-fee wallets to YOUR wallets, which is a scam and abuse of the publishers intellectual rights. Requiring people contact you for the source code means nothing, since nobody knows what you compiled in the executable you are distributing.

These x16 slot extended boards are mainly good for server racks. The spacing is too close to get efficient cooling compared to open air rigs on risers.

I am trying to move one rig from ETH to MONERO. I see 4500 h/s for 6 rx 580. If the difficulty has dropped, shouldn't I see better hashrate?
no hashrate is hashrate you should see less difficulty and higher earnings with the same hashrate. Which has happened to both the old xmo and the new xmr Thanks. Is there any place to check the estimated earning after the fork? Whattomine shows similar earning compared with ETH. I was hoping after the fork earning will be better than ETH. After the fork and the difficulty adjusted, profitability on XMR went up ~4x. At the current price and difficulty 800 H/s is ~$1.25/day in profit after power. https://crypt0.zone/calculator/details/XMR?hr=800&pwr=110&ec=0.12&fee=3&cur=USD&average=3h&exchange=0

Very interesting article. According to Tom Lee, a well known Wall Street analyst on Cryptocurrency, a big reason for the recent downturn is massive Crypto outflows due to huge tax bills owed from last years meteoric rise. https://www.cnbc.com/2018/04/05/wall-streets-tom-lee-predicts-massive-outflow-from-cryptocurrencies-ahead-of-tax-day.html‘Massive’ selling of cryptocurrencies into fiat by mid-April to be expected, as U.S. crypto holders ‘likely’ owe $25 billion in capital gain taxes according to Tom Lee, head of Fundstrat Global Advisors. It also looks like exchanges themselves are a big part of that massive Crypto outflow in to USD. Many exchanges have net income in 2017 [of more than] $1 billion and keep working capital in Bitcoin or Ethereum and not in USD — hence, to meet these tax liabilities, are selling BTC/ETH. He also predicts the recent sell off will be short-lived. "Ultimately, we expect bitcoin to find footing after April [17], tax day," Lee said.
Lee still sees bitcoin nearly tripling to $20,000 by the middle of this year, and rising further to $25,000 by year-end. He expects ethereum to quadruple to $1,500 by the middle of the year and ultimately reach $1,900 by the end of the year.

So any idea what might happen first ethereum going anti asic or ethereum going pos.
From today's Etherum developer meeting where the ASIC related EIP was brought up, it looks like POS is the most likely solution, with the first stage coming sometime around the end of July. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SoPfoNpqG0k&feature=youtu.be&t=2102

Yeah, nothing to stoke up the neophobic populace like the accusing people doing something new of being dangers to the community. All those data centers, it's ok for them to use electricity, because "cloud computing" sounds good. Hopefully efficiency will improve, but until then maybe we should just rebrand. You read the article? Sounds to me like they are shutting down a bunch of residential customers that think its fine to load an apartment or makeshift shed full of miners and think they can tap 200kw from a residential grid. I warned of this before, but no one took it seriously. A couple rigs in your house is fine an no one will bother you, but if your going to try and stick a couple dozen in a residential area and think no one will notice think again. Actually if you follow the link provided in the article, it's in reference to a new city ordinance limiting bitcoin mining firms, which means it's a larger scale operation they are talking about shutting down. Not somebody with a couple of rigs in their house or apartment. LOL https://www.coindesk.com/washington-states-chelan-county-moves-limit-new-bitcoin-mining-firms/I didn't read this article, Ill be honest. But I have seen this being talked about for a few weeks now across the USA in different cities. That's right and it's mostly in cities where LARGE scale operations have setup, due to cheap electrical rates. Putting a strain on their electrical grid, some of which is subsidized by the city and it's causing the rates to rise for everyone. Plattsburgh, NY is another one. http://www.wcax.com/content/news/Plattsburgh-considers-ban-on-bitcoin-mining-475877703.html
