actually, the Bytecoin team has made an official announcement that ASICs will be supported, so i thing that will be big deal

They already are supported, I stopped BCN due to low return.

Yes, 550 MHz, Chip temp is below 70C and ambient is close to 100F in the garage.
cool, whats a good pool for sumo?

Any pool from the list should do, I picked one with decent number of miners.

http://www.sumopools.com/

Half of pools from that list switched to RYO, which is not good for X3.
Here is a list of udated pools for SUMO : https://miningpoolstats.stream/sumo


Thanks!! I went with superpools for now.

Ant958, mind to share your X3 setting on superpool

Any difficulty set? overclocked 550?
Thanks in advance

worker: your own sumokoin wallet address.6000001

don't forget the .6000001  after your wallet address. That sets the difficulty.

I overclocked to 500mhz, my hash is around 290 kh/s  but goes up to 390 too. Also 480 kh/s

Just a quick update guys: how are your dorrstoppers doing?

Hey sucker!   Current pool, paying 9.7 US daily. running 360 Kh/s,  sorry GPU suckers

How's your $2 a day going??? OTFLMAO

Thanks for the heads up, I joined a German pool with .1 fee. (they have 33 miners) Seems to be going ok, I also overclocked 550.

cheers

Found a better pool, paying 9.7 US daily. running 360 Kh/s,  sorry GPU suckers

All you haters can hate all you want. Usually the most hated things pump the hardest.
  I'm smiling mining away with my X3.  This machine is badass.  Uses very little energy and its not as loud, Quieter than an L3+ .  Start up is much quicker and quieter.  Only has a single Fan.

Perfect for the home miner since it uses the least amount of energy 500 watts.  The single fan spins at 4500 rpms at default and the chip temps is 55c .  This chip runs very cool.  
Testing was done in 66 degree ambient outside weather.  Curious to see how it performs in the summer time.

Im getting 233 khash/sec

I'm currently Mining XMC on bitmain antpool . Until I find a better coin.  But as of now I will join the bitmain army and dig away.

I overclocked mine to 462 mhz so my hash is 270.

I wanted to try XMC, but when I register I'm unable to verify phone...thus can't mine. Doing bytecoin now. How did you setup xmc?

just wait retards, soon you x3 will be 1$/day, more and more asics are shipped, more and more coins fork away, more and more asics increase difficulty of the left coins & the left coins dont grow in price with the difficulty


What an absolute TOOL you are... little jelous girl... just stfu I made RIO on X3 already ... are you jelous becuase you can only afford 2 GPU's .. arrr poor kid...

no fk off from this forum you jelous little girl.


That's how they relieve their frustration from mining tiny money on GPU's. Go find the X3 board and post there... one tiny problem, the GPU's mostly make even less, and never did reach the heights of the X3.

They are also doorstop specials, but are poor heaters and take up 1/2 the doorway as a stop, not quite heavy enough for an anchor, thus they post here. OTFLMAO daily at GPU sucker's THAT TROLL.

I'm enjoying mining monero XMC on antpool.  

I'm mining monero a little under  1 xmc per day.  Guess who is powering and gots the support of xmc.  Bitmain/antpool.  They got way more cash than the monero Dev's and will pay to make sure XMC wins

Guess what happens when monero v7 secret asics get invovled,  xmr is going to have to run away from the inevitable  and fork again and create 5 more confusing fork coins.  Guess what will happen.  XMC will Moon b/c its the original and its asic powered and doesn't need to deal with that forking drama.

The monero devs will eventually realize they need asics at some point. But guesss what XMC is already powered by asics and that leaves the monero devs in limbo for making a bad choice to fork every 6 months.  They dug their own graves.

My investment thesis is that we will have the "Jihan'ing"  event where XMC will overtake XMR and be worth $200 a coin.

Think I'll give it a try, must I use bm/antpool? Can't seem to complete registration there(phone link won't work) Volume looks a bit thin there.

Just like the gpu's holding doors open, useless as an anchor. Back to sucking hind tit.

GPU has hit a new all time low of 50 cents after electric.  Time to trade in your gpu for a metal detector and go look for some change.  More profitable than gpu mining.



Yup.  Looks like GPU is an official paperweight. Would be a terrible boat anchor. Rumple lol

Looks like mining is drying up.

hey guys one quick question

how is your $2 per day doorstopper doing?
My 6.50 is doing fine, how bout the $3.  gpu, with 51% attack?Huh? OTFLMAO
56  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Bitmain Antminer X3 -- 220KH+ Cryponight - 550W on: June 09, 2018, 04:19:09 AM


OTFLMAO, frustration getting the best of you Huh? 51% attack too bad you don't get it. OTFL
57  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Bitmain Antminer X3 -- 220KH+ Cryponight - 550W on: June 08, 2018, 05:05:16 PM

The leap from gpu too Asic is 100x plus hash rate increase so easier to do 51 attack.

That was true for CryptoNight, but not for Ethash (E3 is 180MH/s at 800W) or Equihash (Z9 is 10kSols/s at 300W). Respectively, that makes the E3 about as powerful as a typical 6x RX 570 GPU rig but drawing much less power and costing less as well, while the Z9 is about 2x more powerful than a 6x GTX 1080ti rig while also drawing much less power and costing less. In other words, not even close to 100x more powerful.

The leap from Asic to better asic, is 2x at best due to the limitations of chip size nm and power efficiency vs high equipment cost to manufacture a better Asic over previous generations. This is not enough to do a 51 attack on whole network.

I literally just pointed out 2 examples where the 2nd gen ASIC was 5x to 10x faster than the previous gen and yet you still tried to claim only a 2x improvement is possible?

Right, okay. I think I'm done here.



Again another poor argument that failed to get the point and failed to put it all together.

You are correct with Ethash. And its b/c its relying on the limitations of memory hardware tech Moor's law,  But its only a matter of time before a 51 percent attack will happen.


yes Z9 wasn't 100x more powerful like that X3, it was just only 10x more powerful.  Wait only 10X?!?!   You kidding me.  10X is enough to do a 51 percent attack especially if the hardware only cost $2000 compared to a gpu rig will need 10k cash to have 10k sols and generate over 2510 watt usage vs the z9mini 300watts!,   and thats exactly what happen with a big enough farm that got early access to bitmain Z9 and ate those gpus hashrate up. Again proving my point that its better to have specialized hardware over consumer grade cards meant for games to secure billions of dollars.

You are wrong about your asic example being 5x-10x faster than previous generations.  S7 was rated at 4.86 TH and S9 rated at 12.5 TH,  That's pretty much 3x faster, they both use around same watts but at the time the S7 cost $2000 initially.    S7 to S9 is an impressive leap but no where near able to do a 51 percent attack on a whole network especially at the starting price point. Thats why you don't hear about a 51 percent attack on bitcoin.

Thanks you for further clarifying my point.  The closer the hardware is at peak efficiency with no competitive product the safer your blockchain will be.

Thinking video game cards meant for games,  is the way to go in securing a network worth billiions of dollars is just foolish and backward thinking. A 51 percent attack will happen and millions will be lost and ultimately will not last 10 years with this type of thinking.




Very informative! Thanks. I see 2 of the board trolls are in hiding!! Rumplestiliskin, and treanski They have no spine for real proof.

If the coin decides to stick with GPU algo its only a matter of time before another 51 percent attack is performed by a secret asic miner that cracked the asic resistance.  Best to get it over with and stay an asic coin for better network security over gpu.
...

I bolded the key phrase that invalidates your entire argument. The manufacturer of the "secret ASIC miner" is also the one most likely to be running them. In fact, selling a fraction of the ASICs you make to the public and keeping the majority for yourself is a great way to maintain control over a coin's network, bring in lots of money from mining, and pay for their development.

This can also be done by selling, say, a 10kSols/s ASIC to the public when you already have a 50kSols/s version working. You know, like seems to be the case with Bitmain's Equihash ASICs? Or sell a 20kH/s CN miner for a few weeks then roll out a 240kH/s version (like Baikal did).

Even if you don't care about principles and ethics, buying an ASIC when the manufacturers do what they have done over and over again is just shooting yourself in the foot. The fact that BTC and, eventually, LTC were taken over by ASICs without much negative consequence probably has more to do with them being the first ones; in other words, the ASIC manufacturers learned some new tricks and tactics since then.



It is a good argument. It is better not to buy ASIC.

His argument is poor.

The leap from gpu too Asic is 100x plus hash rate increase so easier to do 51 attack.

The leap from Asic to better asic, is 2x at best due to the limitations of chip size nm and power efficiency vs high equipment cost to manufacture a better Asic over previous generations. This is not enough to do a 51 attack on whole network.

With asics your protected by Moore's law.

With gpu , these devices are not made for solving blocks makes them very insecure to protect your money


Yes, his argument is indeed weak. I do however agree with his comment about bitmain's business practice.

Gpu algos are also having constant issues with 51 attacks. Asics solves this issue bc nothing competes with asics. Gpu were never intended to be mining cards and if you GPU fanatics love mining so much you should switch over to fpga or asics since they are purposely built for it.

Otherwise it's like saying "hey I love racing and Toyota Corolla is the best car bc it can also do 40 mpg and go a little fast"

with ASICs chances of a Network attack is higher.  Only decentralization can help reducing it.  What limits someone/somegroup to buy/rent lots of hashrate regardless of it being ASICs or GPU.

Look how zen cash and bitcoin gold got overtaken by a 51 percent attack.   It's b/c they were mining on the equihash algo, which currently is being shared with gpu miners and asic miners.  Thats a problem b/c Z9 Mini are not available yet to the masses thus the 51 percent attack can easily be performed with an Asic.

Guess why litecoin,Dash, bitcoin, bitcoin cash hasn't had a 51 percent attack.  B/c they are all on asics for quite awhile now and future 51 percent attacks will be  much harder and expensive to do successfully.

If the coin decides to stick with GPU algo its only a matter of time before another 51 percent attack is performed by a secret asic miner that cracked the asic resistance.  Best to get it over with and stay an asic coin for better network security over gpu.





Well said, is that silence I hear from the GPU crew?Huh Maybe their trolling.

Exactly!! But yet they troll over to this asic forum, speaks volumes of their motives. Frustration at its best! LOL @ them, legend's in their own mind.
