I can connect to my proxy from cpuminer
my conf cpuminer:
cpuminer_x64_SSE2 -o http://127.0.0.1:8332 -u x -p x
but sgminer -not connected - and from scrypt and from sha256
my conf sgminer:
sgminer.exe -o http://127.0.0.1:8332 -u x -p x
pause
------------------------------
my video R9 290x
use sgminer-5-1-0
What do you recommend miner programm
Thanks!

Are you trying to connect all these algos to the same proxy? I'm doubtful that stratehm has that support built in and will only connect to one algo plus failovers. You may need to run multiple instances.

If memory is not an issue, simply copy-paste a couple more copies of your .bat file, and your .conf file, change names for sha256 and scrypt, and bump them a couple of ports.

stratum cpuminer - 127.0.0.1:8332
stratum sha256 - 127.0.0.1:8333
stratum scrypt -  127.0.0.1:8334

Make sure to change

  "isScrypt" : true

to your scrypt proxy .conf file.

Also, I do believe sgminer will support stratum, try using stratum+tcp://127.0.0.1:3333 with your sgminer as well.

where you wrote it, please?



You've definitely got the hang of it, add this to your header, and based on your difficulty I'm *guessing* you don't want to disable stratum, if you're on an old miner with no stratum support you'll be stuck using getwork which I have not messed around with.

Resources I used to get started:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=611338.0

https://www.nicehash.com/?p=asic

Both are full of valuable info and contain basically everything I needed to get running. I run the java proxy on my windows 7 desktop and run it through a VPN and have no issues with connectivity. It barely takes any resources (~260MB of RAM and almost no processor time) and is quite stable.
I'm looking at turning a raspberry pi into a linux stratehm server and taking the load off of my desktop, looking to get my hands on one in the next month or so and I will definitely keep you updated.

Some things to consider:
Set as many failovers as you want, I don't think there's an upper limit. And it only takes one spot on your GUI menu (antminer etc.) so you can still set hard failovers should your stratum server go down. Pool swap and change priorities in a GUI without even opening your miner settings!

If you have any specific questions regarding setup I will try to help as best I can Smiley

Tips:
I set my reconnect period to 15 seconds and the stability testing to 30. Seem to work great and catch zpool back up while most of the miners are still deciding what pool to stay connected to. Also largely fixes the issue with units locking up as they're not constantly getting a connections, sending shares, and getting disconnected again.

Watch your sampling periods, I had it set to 5 secs to start and it hung the server for a few seconds every update, now set to 300secs and works great.

Combine your stratehm server with Cryptoglance for monitoring and laugh your way to the exchange Smiley

Cheers,

Erumara

Is there any reason not to add skein, the 5th Algo for DGB/MYR/AUR?

I'll be added a few more algos over the next few weeks.

btw, the pool is already running of SSD's and is also distributed over 4  8-12core  servers with 256GB ram. It's not the hardware. I've changed it 3 times now. The hardware investment is now 10-15k a year. I'm still looking for a dev that is willing to re-write port the stratum component to something more robust and stable. I have one prospect so far and it by no means cheap. It will be a $2-3k job and has to be done right. Trust me, nothing I hate more than seeing the stratum resets. It's also BTC out of my pocket too.

My end game is to be A) The most profitable, B) Reliable, C) Stable and D) The biggest.

I've got 3 out of 4 IMO, stability will come as soon as I can get it developed.

The resets can be irritating, I set up a stratehm proxy and it cut my issues by a huge amount. Still have to reboot the rigs every few days but they rarely lock up anymore and it's a small price to pay for this kind of profitability. Glad to hear the issues are still in the process of being solved, I can definitely understand rewriting the likely outdated protocols would be quite the complicated job.

In any case, keep up the good work crackfoo!

I have noticed that in the last 12 days that my payout at every 2 days is now always 0.0079xxxx, before that it was ALWAYS 0.009xxxxx.

I am running at about 17.6TH.

Please elaborate, those numbers make absolutely zero sense. 100% luck you should be making ~0.09856 every two days, down from ~0.11264 every 2 days due to difficulty change on Apr 14.
88  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: I want to invest in 20x S7 on: April 28, 2016, 12:32:22 PM
I can't understand one thing about halving, I was mining on the slushs pool from the beginning when the interface of the webpage was like ordinary forum one, what will happen after halving ? For example If I was mining with power of 4Ths 0.4BTC a month after halving it will be 0.2BTC not including difficulty factor ?

That's correct, your reward per block found will drop from 25 BTC plus transaction fees to 12.5 BTC plus transaction fees per block. No-one can predict what the difficulty will do post-halving, and with a larger *percentage* of a found block being transaction fees how exactly it will all work out.

Mmmmm delicious cloudmining nonsense!

Not sure if you're looking to support more cloudmining outfits, or you're directly involved, either way we'll break this down!


$189usd/TH = $888usd/4.7TH or roughly the price of an S7 w/ PSU

Maintenance fees = .0009usd/gh = $.9usd/th = $4.23usd maintenance @ 4.7th = ~$0.14usd/kwh

4.7th x .0029btc/th/day (bitcoinwisdom @ current diff) = .01363btc/day = $6.13usd/day (diminishing)

Total take $6.13 - $4.23 = $1.90/day at current difficulty and price

$1.90/day to pay off an $888 investment = 467 days if nothing changes, with the halving coming ROI is utter nonsense.

Cloud hashing power indicates your ability to mine crypto-coins. The more hashing power you have, the more ROI you will get. Hashing power is the underlying driving force for the entire crypto-currency network. Cloud hashing power provides mining service in the “cloud” and support in the network in general.

This line is intentionally misworded, your ROI will always be a % of your investment. Of course if you invest more you earn more, but it certainly does not compound.

5.6 PH/s hashing power with the electricity cost as low as 15 cents per kWH

According to this line here, assuming they don't have some new miner more efficient than the s7, they're barely making money whether BTC, LTC, or ETH, and will fail after the halving unless the price skyrockets.

Quote
OXBTC provides the most profitable cryptocurrency deposit investment and the foundation for its high ROI is its 3 mining farms which are among the largest ones in China and they are run under very low electricity cost and highly efficient operation.

Directly contradicting the previous statement.


If they are charging ~$0.14usd/kWh maintenance (assuming s7 efficiency), and they claim to pay $0.15usd/kWh electricity, how are they still in business unless this is another fancy ponzi?


This page is full of lies [Biggest mining farm? Maybe. Where is the hashrate on the network?] and inconsistencies [200 acres for 10PH!?!? WTF do they do with the other 198 acres?] . I do not go around calling all cloudmining a scam, but they could try a lot harder!

Your math seems to be on the dot, minus the fact the halving is mere weeks away. While the recent price increases bode well for miners after the halving, investing right now is ever so slightly riskier than usual with the reward being chopped in half before you could hope to ROI.

I was waiting to respond to see if anyone else wanted to weigh in on this, and Gunthar pretty much nailed my thoughts.

If you are serious about manufacturing 16nm chips and manufacturing miners on a scale that can compete with the big companies, you literally have the support of this entire community. Not to mention to pull that off would make you very rich.

I have trouble understanding why you would need to enlist a petition to determine whether or not people are interested. If the miners are competitive, EVERYONE will be interested, no input necessary, they will mob you and stuff money in your pockets, me included.

If you are looking for pre-orders or crowdfunding: My original thoughts on you being a scammer stand until proven otherwise.

If you are looking for serious investors, you need infinitely more information available to convince anyone this is a serious business proposition.

IE. You have still not answered my questions regarding what facility is available to manufacture these chips, who is designing them and what their experience/background is, and the proposed efficiency and size (hashpower) per chip.

In fact, if you are at the idea stage, and don't actually have a chip designed and the manufacturing process lined up, I am incredibly skeptical that you could hope to get them to market before the 2nd and 3rd gen 14/16nm wind up on the market in a couple years and leave your (hypothetical? designed? prototyped?) ASICS in their dust.

Slushpool currently only merge-mines Namecoin, if you wish to suggest another coin, feel free to introduce a new proposal under: Help Center - Development Corner, and the miners will vote whether or not to add it.

94  Bitcoin / Project Development / Re: Manufacturing 16nm ASIC Chips (Bitcoin) on: April 24, 2016, 07:04:57 PM
As of today, there are still ZERO confirmed manufacturers using 16nm technology, and no publicly available miners at this time.

What background and resources do you possess that you claim to be able to bring a home-miner to market? While this is a project I would support 100%, you seem to have skipped over roughly 99.9% of the process of being able to actually achieve such a lofty goal.

Sidehack is working diligently on acquiring 16nm chips and doing precisely what you describe, why would anyone believe you could deliver something that trusted and experienced community manufacturers are currently unable to do?

What manufacturing plant exists in S. Africa that could manufacture cutting edge custom microchips at a reliable usable yield? (I was not able to find evidence of such a facility, though I am no expert) TSMC is regarding as being unable to achieve high-yield wafers w/ 16nm, how do you plan to beat their yields and possibly compete?


In my books you are a scammer until proven otherwise, I didn't bother clicking your link because as a newbie you hold ZERO reputation in this community and there is ZERO reason to believe this is anything less than phishing.
95  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: [40+ PH] SlushPool (slushpool.com); World's First Mining Pool on: April 24, 2016, 06:30:51 PM
The only thing more awesome than those two fat blocks in 5mins breaking the bad streak is sitting and waiting for the conspiracy theories and people screaming "Switch pools! Even though they're statistically identical pool x is somehow superior!" every time slush goes >20hrs without a block. Welcome to pool mining people.
I used to feel the same way. Until the 30 day luck stayed around 85% for about 3 months. While not impossible, it is improbable.

If you to look at it solely based on math. Slush keeps 2% in fees and the transaction fees, while Kano only keeps .9%. Even if both pools were at 100% luck (which they aren't) Kano is the better place to mine.

yes and in that same time frame it was discovered that slush was working on old work for up to a min on every block change.. that equates to 10 % right there..

Anyway. like beating a dead horse at this point..

Best Regards
Doug


Yet again this thread goes nearly 3 weeks without a post until all of a sudden there's a slight period of low luck and people start whining and demanding that Slush is doing something unethical *100% confirming my original post* while the pool itself sits at over 100% for the last couple weeks.
I would be really interested to see the data to back up your claim of Slush working on old blocks for up to a minute. While possible, one minute downtime amounts to (1 min lost efficiency / 4.5hrs per block at 100% luck = 0.37% lost mining time at 100% luck, which I will point out that you have not bothered to actually back up with convincing data or a reference and comes in at a fraction of this claimed 10% loss)

Quit shilling for Kano, I don't debate for a second whether it is a legitimate and well-run pool. But coming into this thread simply looking to boost the HP at Kano by sowing doubt in Slush does not reflect well on you or Kano. The fact that Slush continues to beat Kano in overall hashrate indicates that either:

A. According to your arguments, the 56PH worth of miners on Slush are all idiots that don't know shit about mining, which I certainly doubt.
or
B. Slushpool is a bitcoin mining pool like any other, and your arguments continue to be petty and unsubstantiated.

Also,
No one is going to argue whether a 0.9% fee is smaller than a 2% fee, however there are very well-reasoned arguments that lower fee pools are less likely to survive a period of unforeseeable bad luck. I personally doubt this is the case with Kano as the admins are very experienced in this field, however, if people want to pay an additional 1.1% for access to a beautifully done website with democratic hashpower voting and well put together worker monitoring etc. etc. That is their choice to make, and people still make that choice every day to the tune of ~8PH added to slush in the last month.

Again, I would very much welcome any hard data regarding any reward withholding, slow task switching, corroboration with block withholders, or anything else that may convince me that Slush is anything less than 100% legit.


Cheers,

Hi unholycactus,

Thank you

Glad to see people agree that for a "legitimate business" These guys (and a lot of cloud mining outfits) leave you with far more questions than assurances.

CryptoJeweler: Definitely have me convinced your not some shill or promo account, always use the utmost caution when advertising or promoting ANY business. It is far too easy to do so with the best of intentions, while forgetting that many honest people have had personal reputations and trust ratings destroyed simply by backing or shilling for shady companies they thought were legit.

Of course we could go into a lengthy discussion comparing honest users being used by a company to promote a dishonest business (AKA promotion by ignorance, ie. SIGNATURE CAMPAIGN) VS. users who fully realize that a company is being dishonest, but stand to increase their own shady earnings by drawing more suckers into a ponzi (AKA promotion by dishonesty, ie.  REFERRAL CAMPAIGN).
