A bunch of them must have arrived today, last night my dual mining was 4 days away from reaching the minimum payout amount. Today it's 20.

20 USD per day you mean?

No, 20 days from reaching payout. Today I stopped dual mining because it said the payout date was incalculable, so that balance will sit there until my A3 arrives I guess.

Apologies if this has been answered, it IS a 200 page thread at this point, but:

I still have my key and pword from the original failed CL wallet that was never able to sync with the blockchain. I sent a small amount of coins there from Suprnova at one point. Is there any way to import those coins into the new web interface wallet?

Just switched to your pool so not sure yet about payouts and all, but you are the first ETN pool I've ever used that seems to report my hashrate close to accurately, most were 30-40% under what I was actually running. So far, so good, I plan to leave my cpu miners pointed at it indefinitely if the payout is solid.

Siamining.com or sia.luxor.tech are the two famous Sia mining pools.  Nicehash also has it but i cant get it working. I imagine Antpool also has since are making the machines but there is no link on their website yet

Nanopool as well, I've been using them for claymore dual for a while and they're good.

It depends on your risk appetite and your time. daytrading requires many hours and always monitoring your portfolio time to time.
If youre busy the best way is to research and find undervalued and solid coins and HOLD it. this will have less risk and less stress monitoring always your portfolio. i think that is the best way as many people have different available time in crypto

THIS. I used to day trade a bit using online stock accounts (Robin Hood, Scottrade, etc). I eventually found that, if you're not playing with extremely risky stocks (or in this case coins), you're better off picking things you want to hold long term. You CAN get a greater reward day trading, but you have to weigh it against the amount of time and work involved, and honestly keeping up with my miners and general coin rates is exhausting enough, I wouldn't want to add day trading to my workload (I have a job and a gf and everything as well, time is a valuable commodity these days)...

Hi guys i have a 1060GTX and it has 19.8 Mh/s, bad deal. Regards

Question is that OCed?  If it is sounds like Hynix memory, if not sounds closer to Micron memory.

3/8 of mine are like this. I suggest mining something Equihash, like BTG or Zclassic, rather than ethash coins. Ethash is the more memory intensive algo, I notice almost no difference in hashrate between my cards when mining Equi coins.

Indian banks stopped crypto brokers bank accounts. millions of crypto investers have been put on notice. This will have a temporary impact on crypto market. prices may go down again. DON'T buy yet.

The bank bit is true, but the notice was just a tax notice, not any kind of legal threat or anything.
509  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Building Cheap Miners : My "Secret" on: January 21, 2018, 03:28:38 AM

Are all of you running on Windows? Because I'm on Lubuntu, and now have 4 of the i5 version and all are running stable at 359mh/s with no drop...

I moved it to linux mint, haven't done the turbo thing yet though but the i7 is hasing at 250 lol. wtf.

Huh. My lowest running i5 has dropped only 7-8 (to 352). One is still running at 100%, and I haven't even moved them to the basement yet...
510  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Building Cheap Miners : My "Secret" on: January 21, 2018, 01:16:32 AM
nsummy I am WAY jealous of those numbers. But for around $310 total and drawing 43W for 360h/s, I'm content enough (though if I buy any more, I would hold out for the i7s for SURE).


Yeah those numbers are nice. I can't get those on windows, it will bounce to 550, then rapidly just drop down to 250. Very weird.


I also tried installing linux but it was an epic fail. I have no clue how to deploy xmr-stak on linux. I'm sure someone would have gotten a laugh seeing me trying to navigate through it all knowing zero about linux lol.

Ah well.

Try commenting out the memory thing (I posted about it previously, can't remember it this second but it's one of the steps suggested in the guide). That solved that same problem for mine.

EDIT TO ADD: here it is: this may be a linux or Iris specific thing, but (at least on the i5) doing the suggested change to sudo vi /etc/security/limits.conf dropped my start from 359 to 320, and eventually my hashrate dropped to 180. Commenting it out brought everything back to 359 and stable, so I suggest testing it if you want, but it doesn't seem necessary (if you are still getting locked RAM messages, I was able to get rid of them by sudo running the miner, but I don't think they had an effect on hashrate)


I'm going to try out your suggestion.  VyperBTC and I have been exchanging a few messages and we are both experiencing the same issue with hashrate dropping.  It starts out fine, but eventually it will drop to the upper 200s.  At first I thought maybe the processor was too hot and throttling, but restarting the miner fixes it so I don't think that is the issue.  

I've tried it but it didn't help unfortunately. I'm not sure how it would effect performance programming a script to close out and sudo start the xmr-stak every 15-30min. That's not getting to the root of the issue, it's just a bandage to get around the actual issue of why the hell is it happening lol

Well at least my problem isn't happening every 15 minutes.  More like letting it run for 15 hours then it happens Smiley  Actually though I just thought of something.  Did you ever go into the bios and enable turbo mode?  I think without that, the processor does actually throttle and that might explain why it happens so quickly for you.

No i didn't - the only thing i did was enable power on if power loss. I'll change that and see if it helps, thanks!

511  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: 370w system consumption WITHOUT GPUs. Wrong setup? on: January 19, 2018, 03:07:44 PM
You will save money by replacing your mobo and processor with something far, far more efficient (unless you are also cpu mining and have a good rate). My mobo/cpus all max out around 60-80W and generally run more in the 30s. You don't need much cpu power to mine with gpu.

this one below worried me ...
is there anything happen with bitmain which we don't know?

Thank you for contacting us. We are off site from 15th-25th Jan., working to improve our company and find ways to serve you better. Replies will be delayed more than usual. Please be patient - we will get back to you in a few days.

Our working hours are 9am-6pm Beijing time (GMT+8) from Monday to Friday.
We are working hard to respond quickly to every query.

Considering the turnaround on the A3s, I'd assume they're all packaging and labeling shipments all week or so.

Also I sent a question and they got back to me within a day. They didn't, you know, answer it or anything, but they tried.

I wanna have at one of those but I cant afford them. GG.
Maybe next year.

It'll probably be earning about the same next year too. Since we won't get ours until a week after big Chinese farms and all...

I'm hedging bets and am dual mining Sia until the difficulty goes up.

The solution to the energy consumption is not that easy. If all the miners would buy energy from renewable energy sources the price per kWh would increase and other “green energy” users would be forced to switch back to conventional energy sources. The entire POS concept seems to be the better choice - don’t get me wrong I am a miner myself (only using energy from water energy sources) and love it but the energy consumption is huge.

That's not how economics works; in the VERY short term, perhaps. But increased demand for green energy drives demand for production, research, and development into larger and more efficient renewable energy sources. If the demand on the grid suddenly went from 1/4 to 1/2 renewable, you wouldn't have more customers switching back to nuclear, oil, or coal, you'd have more companies developing biomass, hydro, wind, solar, etc.

500 pages?

We are currently on 499 in this thread, so almost the 500th page. That is a lot of posts Cheesy

Wow, that is alot of posts.   and figure what... 10 posts per page?

more or less. hm never counted that.



20 posts per page by my count, so nearing 10,000 posts.

Does anyone know if I will be able to run 8x 1060 6gb on a Corsair hx850 v2 PSU? I have 6 running on that PSU now without issues, drawing around 540 watts at the wall @ 64% TDP. So I figured that two extra cards shouldn't be a problem?


If you're keeping the cards running with that low a draw, then sure. But it may limit future choices (like mining neoscrypt, or expanding/upgrading cards/etc). I have 8 1060s running on a 1200W PSU and they never top 1000W, usually draw a little over 800W depending on my settings...

But yeah, if it's a gold or better PSU and you are running a constant draw below 680W or so, you should have no problem with that PSU.
518  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Antminer D3 Blissz firmware (10/12 v1.12 update) on: January 18, 2018, 08:50:37 AM
Blissz,
I think you should take the binaries offline and let these people fend for themselves. By using the scare tactics these people are only harming them selves. Did Bitmain share their software with the people? They used CGMiner software on D3 as well. Thank you for your wonderful work.

It's a shame it never got to a stable v2 for this... but I agree that Blissz should not give up the code. Why do any of this and not be compensated for the work. I thank him for what he did already and he should just let the rest use the D3 as the space heater it has become. The version I have is stable enough that I will keep it along with many others in this thread and Blissz will keep getting the devfee from us (even thou its only about $0.07 a day per unit). He would need at least 100 units running the devfee to make up having one unit to himself. again I say don't release it and just take it down and let these people who couldn't do it on their own to keep running the standard D3... it is barely making them any money at this point and they might just shut them off helping the rest of us with this FW.

Trust in the community. He will still make money (and with it released on github, probably more than he is currently in the long run). Remember we all know how to remove dev fees from Claymore and XMR-STAK, for example, yet a lot of us leave them in to support future dev.

That said, and as I said in the L3+ thread, I think locking the thread and removing the link to the firmware until the issue is resolved is the better approach, so that the support information in this thread is not lost for people already using it...
