Should I be concerned?
Yesterday I received my L3+, it seemed to work stable at ~504MH/s. This morning I realized a reduced hashrate, looking at the "Miner Status" reveals, that one blade is not hashing, all ASICs were marked with X.
Luckily a reboot seemed to solve this issue, lets hope it will not happen again...
Are any of the boards showing hardware errors? Keep an eye on the HW errors and watch to see if they are escalating. It is not a good sign when the miner starts to drop boards.  You are right and I whish I could have tested the miner longer. But when my wife went into the Garage today she came back to me and "kindly" asked me to "reduce that noise". Being afraid that she would take care of it I decided to send it to my hosting center today, so I have to wait a few days before I can continue testing... Is l3+ really so noisy? Im going to have it in my basement, waiting for May batch. Much louder than the L3, but less than A4 or Antminer S9. But unfortunately too loud for my wife having it in the garage. Well, I have to admit that our neighours have their garden right next to it and we don't want trouble with them  This wasn't a problem for me, I already planned to send it to Hosting because my energy price is far too high (approx 0.3/USD per kWh). Your wife lives in the garage??!!!  |

Those were the days, 25 BTC blocks (even though BTC was only worth $250 each) and only 102B to solve a block.
Well if we're going to compare... I can remember 50BTC blocks, $3 BTC and 30 million diff.  Wasn't it in 2011 when the difficulty broke 1M? I seem to remember allot of people saying they were quitting because it wouldn't be profitable to mine anymore. Actually you're right, I recall the diff being even lower but btc was $30 at the time. It went down while I was mining. I think diff was around 600k when I first started mining (June 2011). I wonder how many BTC are lost forever due to people losing their old wallets? |

Guys if I want to try my luck and point some miners from Nicehash at this pool is it better to run at high speed and use my credit quickly or slow it down to make my credit last longer.
For example if I want to spend 0.1BTC I can set the speed to 1 GH/s and my credit will last 36 hours.
Or I can set the speed at 3 GH/s and my credit will last 12 hours.
Which has the greatest chance to find a block?
im sure this will be answered by a more qualified person.. but.. anything less then 1PH/s is a waste of time.. i hope you meant PH/s and not GH/s or even TH/s also it doesnt matter if its 1PH/s for 36 hours or 3 PH/s for 12 hours.. you get the same chance.. If you look the last block that hit was 196T, that is why it's called the BTC lottery!! |
