which pool is the best ?

It depends on your total capacity.
Less than 40Tb i suggest pool.burstcoin.party, else burst.ninja

I have just only 162 GB. I joined lexitoshi's pool. But I received nothing. I want to try other pools

with 162GB the results will be the same everywhere

I tried to mine it with 250 gb but it took a lot of time to get rewards,the mining activity is two years old,many are now mining it and that 162 gb is useless,although it can be mine by any body we still need to upgrade our equipment,a storage with 1 tb is a good start,just try to mine in a good pool ..

For the price right now its not really worth buying HDD, if you do some simple calculation it take about 3 years to recover what you invested and worse the block reward is dropping 5% every month.

I am personally buying burst right now for investment instead of HDD. We never know when it take off and HDD is pretty unique type of POW.

It wasn't clear where this belongs, this is my best guess.

I want to rent mining hardware hosting.  No, I don't expect to "make a profit".  What I do expect:

o To pay via credit card.  Having mined BTC escrowed until the CC transaction is permanent is understandable.
o To choose which mining pool to use.
o An effective USD -> BTC rate competitive to BTM machines (which of course includes a healthy profit for the operator).
o Visibility of escrowed payouts during the escrow phase.
o After the escrow period, my chosen mining pool provides visibility of hashrate and makes payouts directly to my wallet.

I have mining hardware in my home, but at current difficulties, it is too noisy (fans).  I have used BTM machines, but they are becoming too invasive (not the operators fault - government requirements).  In person cash transactions have minimums that are too high.

I tried a small amount on genesis-mining, but the total lack of feedback makes me suspect it is a scam.  Plus, they don't let me choose the mining pool.  I have a (possibly irrational) loyalty to Eligius.

Paying for BTC mining rentals with BTC is counter productive - as it effectively donates BTC to the operator.  Mining rentals only make sense economic sense when paying with a currency different from the one being mined.  The operator might as well just keep all the BTC mined and skip the rental.  You are effectively making a negative interest loan to the operator!

www.nicehash.com (not a referral link)

Basically you can rent hash from nicehash which is basically the same as what you wanted plus save all your escrow problem and shipping hardware charges.

Or better still, rent from mining rig rentals (www.miningrigrentals.com) which is basically what you wanted.

My little setup!  Grin

Nice Case !
Rosewill case ? RSV-L4000 ? RSV-L4500 ?

RSV-L4500 I also PM you.  Wink

Very nice modification you doing there, took me a lot of time to figure out. Hope they do release another one with GPU slot instead of HDD bay.

guys what is BTC have POS? what you think may happen..Wink?
like 2-5% a year..Wink

Proof of Stake might work but 50% attack for POS is much easier then Proof of Work and hard fork BTC is a no no. So, better to just make another coin call it BTC-POS .
66  Bitcoin / Mining support / Re: Power Distribution Units in mining on: December 14, 2016, 04:18:47 PM
Hi I was hoping someone could quickly educate me as why a power distribution unit, like those used in data centers, don't seem to be used to power the mining ASICs? It seems like everyone buys an S9 and an associated power supply.

Is there not a better or more efficient and large-scale way to supply power to the miners than by purchasing individual PSU's for each?

I am trying my best to become more IT knowledgeable and it's tough   Embarrassed

The best way is to have individual PSU for S9 ASIC, well unless you find a more efficient way to turn your AC (alternating current) to DC (direct current).

Also for a house to have both AC and DC is very confusing so forget about it and don't save on that PSU Smiley..

What about make V10 claymore miner that only work on Claymore Pool and/or few trusted pool. Make the pool charge 3% and claymore get 2% of it. Walla!!!

69  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: ETH, ETC, ZEC then what ? on: December 04, 2016, 01:12:06 PM
ETH is going POS or "timebomb". If all the miner from ETH coming to ZEC then expect the profit to drop another half. Nothing is worth mining after ZEC.

ok so what do you guys get out of RX480 8gb on claymore v8.0

I'm getting an average of 210s on each of my rx480's.

In what settings you achieve 210S/s? I can not bring more than 200 Sol/s in -96mV/core 1280MHz/memory 2120MHz!
You need modding memory timings in card BIOS.
My 480 4G getting avg. 220s on 1950Mhz memory, with mem. timings mod

Guys stop pushing your GPU, price is low now Smiley

Hi

Block zcash ...what are you doing???

My rig 1.2 k/H. mining in flypoll . Are I can find block

How do I find my block???

Block means share found hight amount or other something... Please tell me about block??


If you are mining in flypool then it doesn't matter if you find a block or not, as long as the pool finds it then you get to share Smiley.
72  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Claymore's ZCash AMD GPU Miner v8.0 on: December 01, 2016, 01:09:06 PM

Yes  but when a person thinks pps. One usually doesn't consider luck. Def my bad on this one. Like I said other day. I didn't think I fully understood hbpps. Now I do!  It's no good!  No wonder it's 0 fee. They need the miners to make their payout scheme work. Smh

BR

Totally agree. I gave up on them too... Cool

I'm almost goin to throw them into my scam basket. They are getting away with only paying 100% luck when times are good for pool over 1 block per hour. But when pool goes over 1 hour normal pps would have to pull that out of pocket or out of the good luck times stash. This pool just pockets the good times and puts the bad on the miners. That to me is shady nonetheless

BR

I am not too sure if I get this right, but the 100% luck is calculated on average so the 1 block per hour and 1 hour normal pps should be the same in the long run.

Only if dwarf can find a block every hour. If not then you lose money not them. They are taking the good luck as fee and putting bad luck onto miners

HBPPS on dwarfpool seems to be the same as simple PPS, no matter how much blocks found per hour. Can't see a difference.

Exactly right. And by doing so when they have good luck they get to pocket that money. So 0 fee looks great and all but like always there is catch.

BR

HBPPS means hour based pay per share. The reward is distributed among all workers proportionally to how many shares each of them has found during last hour (copied from dwarfpool).

Either good luck or bad luck its still 100% to all workers during the last hour and pool did not get anything. I dont see there is anything wrong. Pool still get 0%.



Ok as long as pool doesn't keep any of block. I'll check its mining addy.  I think my biggest concern is with using pps. When I see pps I think of f2pool. It's nOt hour based. It's based on how many shares you submit total.  What if during the hour that dwarf finds blocks happen to be the hour my rigs are unlucky and I get paid way less for each block.  Maybe is not scam but not fair by any means.  They either need to figure out if they are pps or pplns.  They can't do both fairly.


Edit. So I did a bit of math.  If the pool could amass enough hr to pull on avg 5 blocks per hr giving it a 5nd according to pplns standards it would be ok as a pplns pool. The bad part about this pool by setting a fixed 1 hour instead of 5 times diff ramp ip is bad luck can reaally jack with a miners rewards. Atm dwarf should find 23 blocks per day at current diff giving it a ~1nd. I would only consider this pool if it gained another few mega sols/sec

BR

Luck is complicated hahaha, thats one of the reason why I choose pool that have high hashrate (1% fee). But dwarf having 0% fee might be able to get some big miner going there...

78  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Private Miner which is tied to the wallet on: December 01, 2016, 11:09:06 AM
Dear developers miners.

Why do not you sell to private miners tethered wallet which would work on any pool?

For example, I tell my wallet number, and you let me compile a binary that will run only on my Wallet!

In fact, it's a good idea! ))

Willing to pay for miner Nvidia ZCASH (1070) > 220 sol

Good idea, but doing that will require tons of tons of time, maybe after claymore is done with v9 and v10.
79  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Claymore's ZCash AMD GPU Miner v6.0 on: November 15, 2016, 06:03:14 PM
Use "-i 4" when possible.

For some reason, my -i 3 gives me higher sol as compare to -i 4. Anybody have the same problem?
80  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Claymore's ZCash AMD GPU Miner v5.0 on: November 14, 2016, 05:49:12 AM
What do you rejoice? It is advantageous when your speed is higher than the other. And when the rate rises in all, you are in relation to other, standing pat are.

It just kills the coin.

If claymore don't increase speed, then private miner is going to profit a lot more. So its only good that if claymore can increase speed same or faster then private miner..
