thanks for the replies guys, where do I find Wolf's miner?

is the faster xcn cuda miner (Wolf or djm34?) source released (so that I can compile and run on Linux)?

The worrying thing is that Scrypt is not as profitable as before. Even for cloudmining, GAWminer has to switch between coins + exchanging it, in order to remain profitable. All these are behind-the-scene and the vagueness in hashlet's description does not help. Comparatively, it is easier for BTC cloudmining like CEX.

1. Possibly. Many people saw Litecoin a better coin than bitcoin because it was "ASIC proof". However now that that has changed, I don't really see the benefit of LTC besides a faster block time. (I think a lot of people would agree)
2. It's hard to say if ASIC's effected the price at all. So much happened so quickly it would tough to prove if something had an affect on price more than the other.

Here's my opinion on mining. When people call bitcoin a scam I usually say they have no idea what they're talking about. However, mining on the other hand is almost always scam. If you're not looking to drop a significant amount of money on hardware then I can almost promise you, you won't make on ROI unless we see a significant price increase. If you want to mine just for the sake of doing it (for fun) then go for it! I was doing it for a while myself. But if you're looking to make money on it then really put your research into hardware and difficulty. Chances are if you're not dropping at least $10,000 on hardware you're not going to make money. It's a risky business. You have to bank on a price increase if you're going to be doing small time mining. But like I said, this is just my opinion and I could be very wrong. It's really all about chance and luck.

I agree and what you have said is quite similar to how stock market works.

Unfortunately this shifts bitcoin decentralized model towards a centralized one (pool)

2nd time I see cayars did a typo with djm34's name... could be more? Grin

Yea, I'm a dumb ass, who can't spell. (first time)

2nd time was a play on words of my first goof.  dsm34 happens to be a 22 rifle so I was playing with my goof while shooting wolf in the foot. Smiley

no offense there , you are not a dumb ass  Smiley

anyone can share what's the hashrate for x11 on 750ti with latest drivers? I am still using 334.21.

what is the state of matter at this point in time?

Has X-1 shipped? X-3?
Has refunds been issued?

Getting abit like North Korea with all the silence and peppered with some posting of the X-1 miners in operation by some elite fews?

is it just me? Anyone noticed their x11 (maybe x13 too) hashrate graph is quite wild, fluctuating with quite a big variance (like +/- 1mh/s)?

I am using 2x 750ti with ccminer reporting 5100kh/s.
14  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] cudaMiner & ccMiner CUDA based mining applications [Windows/Linux/MacOSX] on: July 16, 2014, 03:46:22 PM
Best results with Sgminer 4.2(fixed) x15 version.(based on poolerinos 2% fee version)

I deleted the 750ti sgminerbinfiles  and installed catalyst 14.6 and got a boost

Any additional build commands?

or this: https://github.com/jrouvier/darkminer?

Can someone compile the zelante splitscreen release for linux ?
it seems to be windows specific (windows.h) and I have no idea how to get it compiled on linux.
thanks


PS: or maybe make the source linux friendly ?

Zelante replied that he would not support Linux. The split screen is useless if you can't provide GPU info in the top screen and Linux happens not to have the necessary API. You could get it via calling external program or port the code from it.

Datacoin near die now, your pool covers about 50% of DTC network with 10ch 20CPD Smiley

BA deleting posts left and right for pointing out cold truths?

They just like their big bro BFL.

Haha, mine got deleted for giving people a diversion from their misery. To be exact, these are the two items David has determined to be irrelevant:

Because we are all rats in BA's cage:

And because we could all use a Miracle:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_-agl0pOQfs

I wouldn't even waste time creating an account on the useless website... obviously david has time to delete posts but nothing constructive to post. I wonder why they have this position since it is obviously a postman job

Incorrect.
Chips are 1w/gh @ 120gh, ~.85w/gh @ 100gh. Tested on live units.


Sure. Even with what you said, compared to S3

              S3                     BA             Hex4M
Cost       450 (0.725btc)    4x360?       205 Euro + cost of 4 Minions
Avail      10-20 July             ??             2 to 4 weeks once Minion chips arrive (when?)
Power      366W                4x120W       4x120W
Speed      478GH               480GH          480GH


Enuff said.
To be fair, with the groupbuy for these boards they'll be 20% off, so ~US$223. You didn't add on $80 in heatsinks if you can get a deal and say 1/4 of a TPLINK router (assuming running four boards off one) for $13, so you're at ~$320 plus the cost of chips and shipping back and forth.

Obviously just getting a refund is the best option, but if you assume that refunds from BA will be slow to come (or never arrive) getting a Hex4M might be worthwhile.

Sending in 2x the chips and getting an assembled boards is a much better deal though. If you have an X3, sending 96 chips in and getting 12 boards for only shipping and $1300 for heatsinks and TPLINK routers is a great deal. Sure you need to add 6kW worth of power supplies, but you'd have to add almost that much worth for the S3s anyway.

Fair enough. Good deal if $223 includes the price of 4 Minion chips.

Let's say without the TPLINK router and PSU, since you need one for S3 as well. Hex4M with heatsink comes to about ~$300.

Price diff: $150
Power Diff: 114W

Hex4M would be a better choice than S3, assuming power cost is 10cents per kWH.

EDIT: Correction, you do not need TPLINK for S3.
