1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / My solution to keeping cards cool as summer temperatures rise: Hydroponics tent on: May 03, 2018, 10:48:18 PM
Hey all,

In order to accommodate the heat issue this summer in my small apartment, I moved all of my rigs and desktop PC into a medium size hydroponics tent. The tent pulls in fresh air from one window and vents it out another window. If there's enough interest I can post an album of the entire setup when I get a chance.

 Hardware Info:

  • Ten RX 580s
  • Six RX 570s
  • Six GTX 1060s
  • Total hashrate: ~590 Mh/s

 
Tent Info:
  • 3'x3'x6.5' hydroponics tent
  • One 8' diameter inline exhaust fan that vents out my window. It moves A LOT of air, around 800 CFM. This thing will legit turn your fingers into a puff of red mist if you're not careful.
  • Two 6' diameter intake tubes that pull in air from outside.


Safety is important in a small enclosed space:
  • All rigs have a thermal stop limit of 82 degrees C.
  • The exhaust fan and network switch operate on the same breaker, so if it flips and the fan turns off the rigs stop mining.
  • No SATA risers, only PCIe and non-daisychained Molex.
  • WiFi smart outlets so I can cut power remotely if necessary.

2  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Optiminer/Equihash 2.1.0 supporting Zcash, Bitcoin Gold, Minexcoin, Zero.. on: December 17, 2017, 10:32:57 PM
Version 2.1.0 released!

Please see github for details.
https://github.com/Optiminer/OptiminerEquihash

This version fixes some problems and brings compatibility with more cards.

The next big target will be to rewrite the kernel for CUDA to better support Nvidia cards. This will happen before a first windows release. Why? The experience of OptiminerZero has shown that the current OpenCL solution works very poorly under windows. Therefore, releasing a windows version at the moment would not be much worth and therefore a waste of time.

Happy mining!


Hey, thanks for the update. Do you have any info on which older cards are now supported? I was unable to run Equihash96_5 on my old R9 270s on V2.0.0. Will they run on V2.1.1? Thanks in advance.

I've had my wallet staking for 2.5 months now with no reward. The estimated time to reward for me is around 6 days (750 balance). Has anyone had a similar problem?

I'm looking forward for the Windows version!

Hey devs, I've been using the parking feature on the testnet, however there are no returns created once the parking contracts are completed. Just an FYI.

Just an FYI, all 6 of my test parking contracts removed themselves from parking approximately 15 to 20 hours ago. I'm not sure if it was a reset of the system, but I personally did not cancel them.

It is amazing how fast and accurately difficulty adjusts itself with respect to current network hashrate.
Devs you have my outmost respect for your skills. This difficulty adjustment algo is a breakthrough

I agree! I'm glad I'm able to mine this coin again, it seems to have a promising future. I'm currently mining at around 4.6 Kh/s and watching a fair amount of coins coming in.

Hi. I am already synchronize with network. but I see that the pending balance doesn't increase. Why?. I'm mining at 75H/s.

Before the high difficulty I mined ok. when it becomes too difficult I stoped.

Is it necessary to do something else after download the new daemon?

Are you mining on the official pool? It took my stats quite a while to update to the proper pending balance today.

Don't believe everything you see on BCT. It's ICO generated  quite a bit more than that.
But, what's it matter may I ask?
Right now there's well over 500+ wallets out there, 20 million xspec with decent distribution and ....most of all, xspec has a purpose.
Unlike so many crypto coins.
so maybe go fud somewhere else.

Yeah the distribution is a bit skewed imo, you can check it out here: https://chainz.cryptoid.info/xspec/#!rich

92% of the coins are owned by the top 100 largest wallets, 36.5% of the coins are owned by the top 10 largest wallets.

ICO was very fair. In the rich list you have exchanges and people who took the RISK of investing while everyone was saying that Spectre was a scam. Read the thread from the beginning and you will see. Many did not want to take the risk of participating during the ICO and regret now. It's the cryptoworld ... take risks and win ... or not. It's always the same pattern, when XSPEC was at 3000sats, those who believed in the project were still buying and  encouraged people to buy too. Now, XSPEC is at 15k ($ 0.37) and I can tell you a secret: buy! While there is still time. Because soon it will be at .80, $ 1.50, 2 .... you will only have these few lines as proof.


I'm wasn't shitting on the Spectre, I actually really like it. I was just pointing out the coin's distribution. I personally bought in 3k satoshi and again at 10k satoshi because I see the large potential of this coin.

The hashrate on https://pool.sumokoin.com is still showing ~36KH/s but that can't be right... right?

That would mean the pool earns less than 500sumo a day but if you look at today's pool payouts they have distributed more than 4000sumo - how is that possible?

1) Pool pay out is at least 60 blocks behind, just check the Pool Blocks Tab.
There you also see the total blocks mined: 10349 and blocks overall mined 21023 vs 20252 in about 24h
You can count them compare them to difficulty etc. Looks pretty okay to me.
 
2) On the main page you can look at the last hash rate spikes with up to 1M4 h/s and compare them with the times, voila, you get a lot of sumo alone in the last 14h

3) I got with 4-10Kh/s only a little bit more than 100 sumo since hardfork so 24h,

But since sumo.ms-pool was told to change the nicehash difficulty to 50k I get about nothing, 15% of 1 block possibly Tongue
Nicehash does only count as 1 Miner connected just mentioning it for rmac




Ohhhh very interesting, that makes much more sense. Thanks for your reply!

http://sumo.ms-pool.net.ua/# Pool update last release Sumokoin v0.1.2.0 -- Hokkaido, Point Release 2

How does this pool have 1.2+ MH/s with only 10 connected miners?
15  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] [SUMO] SUMOKOIN - 🔏 Digital Cash For High-Confidential Transactions 🔏 on: June 22, 2017, 02:02:28 AM
I currently pointed 4.5 Kh/s of my miners to the pool, but blocks seemed to have stop since the devs pulled their 2 Mh/s worth of miners.

So in my wallet I received an incoming stake payment, but is says "Generated but not accepted". My previous incoming stakes all say "Confirmed (xxxxx confirmations)".

Is this normal? And if so, how to I "accept" the incoming stake payment?

I'm new to this wallet and coin. Thanks in advance!

I have had this issue with pos wallets before, where my internet connection was not up to snuff. I looked it up at the time and found that connectivity could be a cause.

I think it was because another node generated a block within a few seconds of mine; "Generated coins must mature 288 blocks before they can be spent. When you generated this block, it was broadcast to the network to be added to the block chain. If it fails to get into the chain, its state will change to "not accepted" and it won't be spendable. This may occasionally happen if another node generates a block within a few seconds of yours."

The transaction details says "Status: conflicted" as well.

Oh well!

Thank you all for so kind supports and please don't send transactions these days, they may get stuck at pool for hours and may get expired too (money will be back to your wallets if txs get expired, i.e. in the pool longer than 24 hrs)

I didn't think about this ... just sent over 1..000 Sumo from Crypotia to my wallet. Will they be sent back so cryptopia, if they are stuck in the pool?

Right, if you didn't see the amount in your wallet after 24hrs, it should be sent back to Cryptopia, and then if it didn't end at your account balance, pls call Cryptopia support.

Well, the transaction was done more than 30h ago. Still no Sumo in my wallet and cryptopia said they can"t help me. What can I do now? It was a rather big ammount....

In this specific case, we can use dev fund to compensate you for the loss. Please send proof to contact@sumokoin.org (screenshots of your withdrawal transaction and Cryptopia support answer emails).

Props to helping him/her out, you don't see that this often.

I'm looking forward to getting these attacks under control. I've been trying to mine off and on for the past few days but its so hard.
