I see many people have started using Zpool to mine the blake2s algorithm using Claymore's new Dual Miner v11.3. The miner will allow you to mine Ethereum and now blake2s or keccak at the same time (with no effect on Ethereum mining speeds). Since its release yesterday, more and more people have started mining blake2s at Zpool. Using my NVIDIA GTX 1070 rigs, I get about the same speed for each algorithm. To that end, you would think miners would then mine the most profitable one on a multipool like Zpool. For some reason, that is NOT the current case. For this example, we will use 10 GH/s as my mining speed for both algorithms, and current 24 hour average profitability for each algo are as follows: keccak: 0.00004407 BTC/GH/day blake2s: 0.00002123 BTC/GH/day After 24 hours of mining at 10 GH/s, mining revenue (using the same exact miner) would be as follows: keccak: 0.0105768 BTC/day blake2s: 0.0050952 BTC/day For that reason, I simply can NOT believe there are currently 9 people using Claymore's Miner (displayed as "dual" in the Miner stats on Zpool) to mine using the keccak algo, and 3,015 people using the same miner to mine the blake2s algo. According to the info provided by Zpool, mining profits using the keccak algorithm are nearly DOUBLE compared to blake2s. So, WHY ARE SO MANY CHOOSING TO EARN NEARLY HALF OF WHAT THEY COULD BE EARNING USING THE SAME MINER? Seriously, is there something I'm missing here? If more miners decide to double their profits simply by changing two words and four numbers of the command line used to start the miner, the pool would likely find more keccak blocks, resulting in even more than double profits over the blake2s algorithm. Anyway, (unless I am completely missing something) I am still shocked that over 3k miners would start mining something without first checking profitability. The only reason I can really justify mining something less profitable is if you are a believer/supporter of the project, but payouts can be made in any currency mined on Zpool, so that should not be the case here.. I am getting way too many rejected shares when mining the keccak algo, but changing the difficulty manually has helped a great deal (although I am still seeing more rejected shares than I would like, and compared to any other algo on Claymore). Can someone from Zpool please look into the abnormally high number of rejected shares on port 5133? remember; that's a dual-use miner; AMD or nvidia. Profitability on the other algos is vastly different between them.... you have no idea what they are mining with... thus no clue which is more profitable. You only know for your own case. I put a note about the rejects in the #support page of the zpool discord for you. |

Since I’m waiting for my warranty replacement for my octominer motherboard I went ahead and ordered a Onda B250-d8p-d3 which is the newer version with only 8 slots and none of the extra ports. It also has a completely different layout for the connections that will no longer interfere with your first card. I will testing it vs the octominer and will do a full review of both. I’m hoping this Onda will fit in my octominer case. They look like they are based off the same pcb so fingers crossed.
I have both, size is a little different, separation between cards is a little bigger on the Onda too. yeah, id say the slot spacing on the onda is 2.2-2.25x the standard spacing. There's enough room to fit an EVGA with its massive super over sized cooler and still have room to breathe between cards. |

Seems like multi algo switching can't keep up with mining a stable algo like xevan. It pretty much same place in the list as always. I tested out the latest release of the zpool gui miner, aka Hashkings Milti Miner for the last couple of days and this graph is the result lol. https://www.zpool.ca/?address=1LsaacGbkgT2uPcL2WunEK9qBY77VaGSgvI dunno if its bugs or something else it many times relaunches the same miner, mining the same algo..but having to ramp up the hashrate over sometimes minutes. Anyway, seems like im coming back to xevan lol, profit switching seems really great in theory but it doesn't seem to do better than this. Yep, my thoughts exactly. Profit switching was great before all the asics and before there were soo many high diff coins. Once there were more high diff coins; boom, that algo is no longer good for autoswitching. Kind of strange, but a truth of the situation. I haven't been swayed to change up my mining algo just yet.... xevan has been paying consistent and well. Im about half way done with incorporating auto-algo switching into the manual batch.... and still at the beginning of testing sgminer with an AMD card to get the batch conformed to AMD configs.... but its been progress nonetheless. |

hi, i'm trying to mine on zpool with my BTC address, just created with greenaddress. miner works fine but the pool show BCH balance.  anyone can explain me why? It needs to be repaired; sometimes the server picks the wrong one for an unknown reason. go to zpool.ca mainsite, scroll to bottom, click support link. go to #support in the discord channel, and type a message to zpool that you need your account address from BCH switched to BTC. Be sure to include your wallet address with your comment, and it will be handled when zpool gets back online. |

You trolls are delusional, gpu profit crashed hard, from $7 to $1 and you trolls think everything is fine hehe and soon from $1 to $0.10 per card per day.
for the people whom follow the herd; yeah; profitability can tank hard; I am still pulling respectable earnings from my gear; and I am not mining the biggest fanboy coins/algos. |

Hello, why is the website buggy last days.Are there some known server problems?
I get from time to time Errro 502 and after refresh should I click on "Refresh for the live version" ant the third page loading is ok.
The second problem--> when I want to check the transaction hash, I get this errror ->Internal Server Error Call to undefined function curl_init()
Solved:
A third I didnt received the coins from this transaction txid=34e8720aca62f6ba56cac8bcdace186ba24db27ef386bd96b6f33b8835f03321
I#m mining X11 Algo(XMCC).
Thanks in advance!
the frontend goes offline when the transactions/payments are being processed; or if some maintenance is going on. normally comes back up in a little bit. |

guys simple question
if i get 17500h/s or 17.5k/s under equihash
if the return on the multipool shows 0.277 btc per 24 hours which is approx at the moment
what is the 24h btc return?
i dont assume its only around 50usd equivalent a day no? tthats way too low and completely unattractiv to single coin equihash mining
can someone help me with the calculation for 24h what the btc return is under equihash?
the best guess you can make is 24hr actual variable (times) ksol/sec... should get you in the ballpark of what it could make in 24 hours. |

No income for X17 algo last 2 hours...
post your miner version, batch/launch config, and your payout address. ill take a peek. My address is 1GLzXWeqsF1TKRoD2EcjK1mpy3x9UHLGjc. There are pending earnings, but sometimes income graph stops rising up for several hours, just like now. Why it happens? And of course my profitability goes down. sometimes profitability is down, or the frontend is not recording for its graphs because its pulled offline while other tasks are performed. does the miner show any disconnect during that period? Seems to look ok good at first glance. |

nvidia splitting archatectures towards mining/gaming may be giving AMD a chance to play catch up in their hardware game.....

FYI; the ad on my username just is because they pay me to put it there. If you wanna assume anything about that past it; that's your problem.... but signature campaigns are a real thing; and I earn more from my SC then I do from my video cards mining each month.... totally worth the signature.
Well of course they pay you to defend them here. To push away all that negative vibe and the countless unresolved scam accusations. To paint this scam exchange as the good guys while their scammed customers are to be blamed for being stupid to send all those coins to their hot wallets. As for assuming anything about the link between your post and your ad, why would that be my or anyone's problem? There are far more pressing problems here caused by your scamming advertiser. Yes, it's totally understandable to be in a desperate situation, compelled by hunger or poverty to do just about anything. Just like saying goods things about a con exchange and portraying their scams as a legitimate operation. So you are forgiven for that. refer to the re-quoted text you used about assumptions that is in the top of the quote above. It is *your* problem because it is an ASSUMPTION you are erroneously making given the text of the quote above. it seems you do not understand your problem is: that I am explaining in that very sentence giving pretty plain and concise (mind you extremely reasonable as well) description of why that signature is there, which brings us back to you; not understanding the plain english provided; and your erroneously assuming things (full circle now) is a problem in your mind, not mine. I have never denied that they have some practices they need to put in check or completely stop.... But; remember, as per my many replies in the past; with proper investment research and knowledge of the processes, you suffer the same chance of scams as any exchange out there. I can't tell you how many people with forked wallets themselves; screaming about ow their TX never went through to an exchange or whatever else case. This is just one example out of thousands of possibilities in each users instance. I've seen it by researching individual users problems. Like another instance of someone sending funds to "yobit" when they were actually doing it to a scammer; not on yobit.net, not on the official yobit twitter, etc. Countless times I have seen people prey on others maliciously in the name of someone other than themselves. This is a fact of the world; I challenge you to do something to change that. I have account history and buy/sell history that proves if you use common sense, and due diligence in understanding fully what you are doing at any given moment, you can easily use yobit just like any other exchange. I have posted screenshot before in this very thread. I'm not saying that people don't get scammed. I am saying, people could be easily putting themselves in that situation.... not could; they do... often. |

I have never needed/required an overclock for gaming. The amount of fuss, for the literal sliver of performance is 100% not worth it.
gamers are just concerned about their game playing.
If the bleeding-edge type really must do what they want, then, they are surely a tiny minority and this scheme seems to fit that bill rather nicely.
I still think miners will use gamer GPU's. Don't underestimate the ability for people to add efficiency where it has not been focused yet.....

and people wonder why they have a poor attitude towards support now.... Im pretty sure you by doing that forefit everything in your account for being malicious. I am still getting my online wallet WD/deposits going through fine. TBH most of the issues I see is user error, impatience, or people not researching the status of the wallets before acting. (making sure blockheight matches, is online, etc) Now; I will fully agree: they have many things they need to fix and work on; but a LOT of the issues, stem from the above mentioned items.... but if the proper precautions and research is done before investing like I do; you won't have problems unless its a fluke instance. FYI; the ad on my username just is because they pay me to put it there. If you wanna assume anything about that past it; that's your problem.... but signature campaigns are a real thing; and I earn more from my SC then I do from my video cards mining each month.... totally worth the signature. |

BTCP is up on the Equihash port - come pound the crap out of it!!!
How can you mine a specific coin? I thought zpool just mines whatever is most profitable on the specific algo. you don't. the stratum picks for you. you just pick an algo; but, we are finding BTCP blocks, so for all you gamblers out there..... |

Hey, Just an update.
Ive been getting the XMR side of my batch set up, and am 2/3 done syncing the blockchain, to see if I can add the CPU side as well (using the command-line version of the wallet daemon)... I figured nanopool is the smartest and most used choice; so it will be the only supported pool until the demand for others or more configurability is needed from the masses when I finish the batch. Hopefully if the monero thing goes as I hope it will, you may be able to add the option for mining XMR directly to your own wallet instead of a pool. Should be simple I would think. The hard part will be people installing the wallet and knowing what port/IP to put into my config files.
Next will come the ETH side; Would you guys prefer I use claymore or another app for the RX cards? (does DTSM[DSTM?] support AMD?) I plan to add support for the equihash port on zpool to begin with.
I think i've found a version of Sgminer that covers most algos that zpool uses... havent tested it yet because I am doing an XMR 2 day stability test with the version of claymore that I am running presently; while the blockchain downloads.
I plan to add an old pre-windows-esqe menu system to my batch; to select and configure options as necessary; as well as enable/disable algos, display statistics, etc.
I'm trying to get the AMD support done as fast as I can. I don't wanna deprive you of your card for longer than necessary.

When ASUS begins to fully secure their coolers to the card, Ill consider them once again; but it will be hard to sway me away from EVGA's quality.
ASUS's problem is most of the time their cooler isn't held on by much but the die's screws. if you bump the card or PCIE cable slightly in the wrong way, you end up needing to disassemble and re-paste it.
Maybe on their most recent stuff they have begun to do this; but last I checked, it was still the same old crap.

I am pretty sure that just cloning the firmware and buying your own FGPA won't work.
Either way, FGPA aren't cheap either.
Agreed. My father is a hardware engineer..... He had the same to say about pricing... it's only economical if you buy 1000+ QTY of them at a time or more.... I am doing research now on the pheasability of creating an FPGA device and making a utility to translate the algo libraries from miner apps like ccminer to something the FPGA could use; this would make pretty much a universal miner as long as theres no massive memory requirements like some algos have.... MY first step is going to be making block diagrams and flowcharts for him to give me an idea of what FPGA and dev board I need to look into buying..... But, I am still waiting for those XXX photos of the inside of a baikal cube..... |
