1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Pools (Altcoins) / Re: The Blocks Factory - Multicoin pool on: January 04, 2018, 03:53:14 AM
Hey guys, new miner here. I'm using an AMD Radeon RX 480 graphics card to mine, and using sgminer as its the only one i can get to work atm with the following in my bat file

Code:
sgminer.exe -k myriadcoin-groestl -o stratum+tcp://stratum.dgb-groestl.theblocksfactory.com:9003 -u user.worker -p pass -I 20

I average 37mh/s which seems awful low to me. i ran it all night and got 1 dgb. is there something im doing wrong?



Bump, can anyone help me? or am i just alone here

Groestl is becoming more ASIC friendly nowadays. Try with Skein and post your results.

Does anyone have a chart for GPUs using groestl?
If needed, I can donate DGB for whoever posts it. (I would love if it has the top 5 NVidia and AMD please)

Please, I gotta bump this.

Is there any mod/admin here?
I just changed my password for something with over 30 chars. But the password to log in is limited to not even half of it, lol.
I just can't log in now because my password is too long.

Then I tried to recover through my email but or I forgot what email I used or it is totally bugged.

Please any mod help me recover my account!
Bump, please t_t
can a mod send me a PM or anything

Any mining investment is risky - the key is to set up a flexable setup that can change with coin profitability changes.

Right now, it appears the best DGB options are the NVidia 1070/1080 and possibly the 1080ti, running skein or groetsl (varies WHICH is better from day to day and sometimes hour to hour) - which leaves you with quite a few non-DGB coin options if profitability drops.

 If RX 470/480/570/580 card availability and the resulting gouge pricing had not happened though, ETH on AMD would probably be better returns on a $ earned/$ spent basis.

 

I would not recommend the 1080ti unless you have cheap electricity.   You only get about 50% more hashing power than the 1080 and it uses significantly more power.  I'd say cost to benefit ratio puts the 1070's at the top with the 1080's having more hashing power, but costing more than the margin you gain.   So in the long run the 1080 will be more productive, but more upfront cost and take longer to pay off whereas the 1070 is cheaper upfront, but will lose out in long term production.

Basically search for GTX 1080 and buy what is in stock.  There are some the perform slightly better than others and if you want to find efficiency you'll have to play and see which ones perform best for you.  They will all generally do about 700-800MH/s Skein

Build a mining rig case like this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cscm8blV40c

Download Nemo's Miner pack here and get the Alexis76ccminer from it for best Skein:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1777336.0

Alternatively use SPmod's which is about the same or sometimes slightly better.  You be the judge:
https://github.com/sp-hash/ccminer/releases/tag/1.5.81

Put it together and it will look something like this:  (only have 5 GPU's in mine at the moment simply because I had some bad cards buying clearance open box ones from Microcenter:



Total price on Amazon right now not including the wood and screws you have to buy from your local hardware store:
$3,945.02

That's with 6xGTX1080 between $500-550 each.  Hashrate will be roughly 4.35GH/s with a power draw of about 1KW/hr.  

Currently that gives:
http://whattomine.com/coins/114-dgb-skein?utf8=%E2%9C%93&hr=4350.0&p=1000.0&fee=2&cost=0.13&hcost=4000.0&commit=Calculate

Break even in 68days provided price doesn't drop, less if it goes back up.  You can likely get some of these parts cheaper elsewhere and drop the cost some, but this is what I got.  Oh you'll need a copy of windows as well, but I assume you either have a license or can get one.

If you liked it throw a few DGB my way Smiley

This was actually a very very good tutorial, seriously!
Eventually when I buy and setup everything, I will make sure to donate a piece of the first three months for you!
Thanks a lot!
(don't drop this address, I will for sure send you.)

I see. Thing is, my main point is, only if necessary, sell the DGB to pay the bills.
I would actually want to stack it, which seems the logic idea tbh.
Anyway, seems like that if I go for a gtx 1070 and I simply drop DGB, I will be left with just some options to mine, sadly.
But this is the risk you should take, hehe. Thanks!

Can We have a profissional miner on DGB here aswering some questions?

I'm today making around 50DGB a day (lmfao I know it sucks :|), using GTX 960.
I want to upgrade my setup with at least 4 GPU. But I need someone to guide, someone that mines DGB daily.

I got a couple grand on wallet and I can buy 1 high-end GPU monthly, probably.
May anyone advise me?
I don't want to get DGB to sell now. I want to stack DGB. I can pay the bills without selling the DGBs, all I actually want is a setup that can make me DGB monthly so I can stack it for 2, 3 years and sell at the end of my college. (This is my strategy actually, mine for 24-36 months, get all the DGB I mined and sell at the end).

Do you guys think it's a good strategy? Is it risky?
I'm thinking that with 1 PC with 4 GPU I'm going to pay around $80? Bucks monthly with bills. Probably I will make a bit more with the DGB prices, like if I got 4 high-end GPU I will make around 2-2.5GH/s, maybe? Probably 3GH/s? It would be at least 15k DGB monthly. (it's literally all I want, a constant 15-20k DGB monthly for 36 months is totally good for me)

There is something wrong with my account.
I've been mining for over 30mins but my hash rate on the website doesn't change.

Code:
ccminer --algo=skein -o stratum+tcp://s1.theblocksfactory.com:9001 -u myuserername.myworker -p myworkerpassword
This is the code I've been using. Is the address wrong?

Also, in the ccminer it shows that my hash rates are normally, like if I was true mining.
But it doesn't update on website...


WAIT, LOL.
The hash rates change depending on what algorithm you have selected on the website.
It shows my rates now.
