1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][DOGE] Dogecoin - very currency - many coin - wow - v1.2 Released on: December 20, 2013, 04:26:30 AM
I have ONE simple question: is there SOMEBODY mining and finding blocks??? PLEASE do NOT spam me with SCAM pools.
I see doge.scryptpools.com seem to have found 6 blocks in the last hour.

Screen of one of my workers (8 CPUs) minning for http://doge.scryptpools.com/

Commooon mate, that's just 10 minutes Cheesy
I'm currently minning with 10 x 8 CPUs (80 CPUs - 5 cloud servers per account) which costs me about $20.
http://dogecoin.ga/dogecoin_mining_cloud_servers.htm

People with higher budget can do much better!   Tongue

What software are you using to cpu mine? I can't find anything that does CPU mining with stratum protocol. If I try enable CPU mining with cudaminer (I think it's with the -H flag?) my hashrate only goes up by 2kh/s and my cpu usage goes up like 5%.

This question is not for me, but I try to answer it from my point of view. I use pooler cpuminer 2.3.2 for win. It is suitable for stratum. My AMD FX 8350 with 8 cores gives something like 60 - 64 Khash. Some antiviruses reported about virus, something like CPU MINER..., but others are silent. I think it's safe, but I use it on machine with no valuable data.

Thanks for the reply, that's the one I tried using and I always get "empty reply from server", which as I understand is what happens if you try to connect to a pool that's using the stratum protocol when your miner is using a different one. Is there any way to force pooler cpuminer to use stratum?

May be my command line string will be helpful. I have a .bat file with this string:

minerd -o stratum+tcp://doge.cryptoculture.net:22555 -u mydogelogin.1 -p myworkerpass

Thanks, that helped!

I downloaded cudaminer and I was able to set up .bat file with my pool address and account, however I didn't figure out what these random symbols in the beginning mean.
Code:
cudaminer.exe -i 0 -C 2 -l 32x4 -m 1

I read somewhere that -i shouldn't be set above 11, so I edited my config and now I have the following config.
Code:
cudaminer.exe -i 11 -C 2 -l 32x4 -m 1

I my card is working fine now. System is responsive and I'm getting above 140 khash/sec. My driver version is 314.22 and card is GTX 560 Ti.
Any suggestions?

I have no idea what the symbols mean either but I got the same card and I get 127 kh/s so you're doing better than me. That sounds like around the limit for the 560 though.

I suggest switching to a different pool as the scryptpool one has only found 2 blocks in the last 24 hours (as you can see its at 2000% of expected shares, ie. it's taking 20 times longer than expected).

Anyone know why I'm only getting a share once every 3-5 mins on http://doge.netcodepool.org/? I only get around 125kH/s but earlier today I was getting anywhere from 1 to 5 shares a minute.

Heya,
Basically this is my first post too.. I came here ask a question on my pool's thread but I've found out I can't post there before I get to post something serious here so let me ask the question here:

The pool I'm mining at has those statistics:

Pool Hash Rate   337.603 MH/s
Pool Efficiency   83.42%
Current Active Workers   807
Current Difficulty   113.32414688
Est. Avg. Time per Round   24 minutes 1 second
Est. Shares this Round   116044 (done: 2482.85%)
Next Network Block   15262    (Current: 15261)
Last Block Found   14702
Time Since Last Block   9 hours 7 minutes 49 seconds

Round Shares Submitted shares since last found block (ie. round shares)
Est. Shares   116044 (done: 2486.18%)
Pool Valid   2885057
Your Valid   905
Pool Invalid   573053
Your Invalid   16

Is it normal for a pool not to get a new block for 9h at difficulty 113?!

I'm part of that same pool. Just started mining a few hours ago. They finally got the block, but comparing to the previous blocks of similar difficulty it should definitely not have taken that long.
