Not necessarily. A low network hash rate means it's easy to do a 51% attack on the chain and fork off. No dev can prevent that, but a good project will have lots of hash power, making forking the chain much harder. Sometimes it's caused by bugs in the wallet, which a good dev team can prevent.

Dems da breaks of mining shitcoins with a low network hash rate and questionable 'Devs'.

Noob question here guys so thank you to whoever answers this seemingly simple question for me. I have ran the single Claymore ETH miner up until now. I see the benefits of running the dual miner and have this version running ETH and DCR. I've lost about 1% efficiency on my ETH but am getting the benefits of the DCR mining.
My question, with ETH I can use ethermine.org to track my ETH shares. How do I track my DCR shares though? I assume DCR is a ERC20 coin and attaches directly to my ETH wallet but like I said I am new to this. Any help and all shit talk is appreciated.
DCR has nothing to do with ETH. It's a separate coin on a different blockchain. Since DCR uses a different mining algorithm which is core dependent rather than memory dependent like ETH, Claymore's dual miner is able to utilize the unused GPU core cycles from mining ETH and use them to mine a secondary coin like DCR at the same time. Since ASIC's are out for the algorithms used by DCR, SIA, PASC, it's no longer profitable to dual mine those algorithms with GPU's. You are better off dual mining coins that use the new Blake2s and Keccak algorithms that were added to Claymore's dual miner. Thank you, I had a friend help me build a rig and was left with minimal knowledge. He showed me how he runs his rig mining only ETH and I am trying to research now on how to mine the other coins. Seems senseless not to mine another coin. I am struggling to figure out how to mine for specific coins though and am trying to read through the read me and help files. Is there a tutorial somewhere to help me wrap my head around accomplishing this?. You enable dual mining with the -mode 0 parameter and also set both pools and wallets for each coin in the miner .bat or config file. You can then monitor the miner on each pool. An example of a config for three RX 580's dual mining ETH + XVG is below. You need to find the best overclocking/undervolting and -dcri settings to use for your cards. # WARNING! Remove "#" characters to enable lines, with "#" they are disabled and will be ignored by miner! Check README for details.

Hi guys.
I have 3 amd rigs and i did all undervolting from bat file. All of is ok. But know i have 2 gtx 1070ti but i don't know how i can down power limit? Any command i use for this?
-cclock 200 -mclock 650
Can i use this command for nvidia?
It tells you in the README file overclocking/undervolting parameters aren't supported for Nvidia. You may be able to use a different tools like Afterburner or NvidiaProfileInspector. https://forums.guru3d.com/threads/nvidia-inspector-introduction-and-guide.403676 |

I have about 36% CPU utilization and 46% memory utilization out of 8GB. I also noticed while testing individual groups of GPU's using the -di parameter to find the best -dcri values for blake2s, ETHman wasn't dropping the connection. As soon as ~10 GPU's are running the connection starts dropping. Could it be a problem with indexing?
You can start two miner instances with -di 012345 and -di 6789ab to confirm this idea. As soon as OpenCL works with 12 GPUs, system starts to work slowly with sockets accepting. I did some testing with your suggestion. When running up to 11 GPU's using the -di parameter, ETHman, (which is running on another rig) doesn't lose it's connection. As soon as I start a second miner instance for the other two GPU's, the first instance losses it's connection to ETHman and it only reports for the second instance with the fewer number of GPU's. Running 12+ GPU's in a single miner instance also causes intermittent ETHman disconnects. Is a core i3 CPU not enough? As i mentioned ETHman reporting on the rig was working fine until about 2 months ago, so maybe the Windows v1709 FCU or new drivers changed something. |

Added to FAQ because I got same question several times:
- EthMan loses rigs with 12 GPUs.
Sometimes systems with 12 GPUs and low-end CPU become slow for remote access, you can see problems with EthMan and other remote management software.
My ASRock H110 Pro BTC+ 13 RX 580 build has a Core i3 6100 CPU. ETHman is constantly losing it's connection. It was working fine until about 2 months ago. TeamViewer also works flawlessly. In my tests I have problems with RDC, sometimes I cannot connect to this system. Attempts to understand the reason show that server socket does not accept incoming connections sometimes. For me it looks like lack of system resources. If I remove a couple of GPUs - everything is fine. I have about 36% CPU utilization and 46% memory utilization out of 8GB. I also noticed while testing individual groups of GPU's using the -di parameter to find the best -dcri values for blake2s, ETHman wasn't dropping the connection. As soon as ~10 GPU's are running the connection starts dropping. Could it be a problem with indexing?  |

How much power? HD 7850 does ~500 H/s @100 W for $60-80 on eBay.  |

Type 'AMD lyra' in the forum search box and the first link will have what you're looking for.

Seem unimining.net bit overloaded ?
B2S: Authorization failed

3-10% rejected shares. Propably due to big wave of new miners pools can't handle it . Just need some patience I think - to allocate more resources to process miners.
antminepool 0% rejected Confirmed, better hashrate and no rejects here. Pool Hashrate seems growing quickly Antmine pool is now finding about 1 block/hour. Hopefully it can handle the increased stratum load. |

Is it possible to update to claymore 11 on ethOS now or does ethOS need to put out a new update first?
You should be able to replace the files in the miner folder on ethOS with the new version. Then run sudo chmod +x on ethdcrminer64 to make it executable and update the config file. |

If you want to use the compute drivers, Afterburner will not work with the AMD Adrenaline drivers and multiple cards. Either use the Claymore config file to apply the overclock and undervolt settings at runtime, or use OverdriveNtool to create overclocking profiles for your cards as explained on www.mining.help. If you want to use Afterburner with multiple cards you need to use the AMD blockchain drivers and you are limited to 8 AMD cards. You still need to use the pixel patcher with RX 470/480 and 570 cards after installing the driver. Since you don't want Windows updating your drivers, I would disable drivers updates in Windows Update. gpedit ==> Computer Configuration ==> Administrative Templates ==> Windows Components ==> Windows Update and set 'Do not include drivers with Windows Update' to enabled. |

GPU prices are influenced by a variety of factors. Global market trends, supply chain logistics, product lineup announcements and a variety of other factors. In other words, 'a big picture' anaylysis. I would guess the daily price of shitcoins on whattomine plays exactly 0% in future production decisions. Not everone is obsessed with the daily price of Crypto and I would suggest you don't either.
