161  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: LBRY.IO - DICUSSION THREAD on: August 04, 2017, 10:57:58 AM
Why the requirement to add a debit/credit card?


Isn't it removed in the latest version? Just asks for e-mail to confirm account, no CC necessary afaik.

The app works fine... at this stage what is needed is an injection of content. Exclusive or LBRY first deals. Interesting indie content. Heck, even cat videos will do Grin
163  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: LBRY.IO - DICUSSION THREAD on: August 02, 2017, 01:08:38 PM
Is it safe to provide my credit car details to LBRY? I was asked to do this. I don't like this part as I don't want to share my private details with any.

You are always insured through your credit card company for all your CC purchases.
Hence the idea of using credit card, not linking it directly to your checking / bank account.

Don't listen to fud.
Everything works super fine. Win10 64bit here.
App works, wallet works, streaming works.

To the moon my friends!

In this case, I also use one - two machines, in cases, to stand comfortably in the apartment without looking monstrous and heat up the space in winter.
My choice is Cooler Master Storm Trooper case (will allow for full 4 card setup or 3 card setup on a 7PCI-E board XL-ATX format or larger, with extra spacing between each card <-- my choice).
In this case I currently have a Titan X (Pascal) + 2x GTX1080 cards. If you want a good mobo for this try to find the Asrock Z77 WS (hard to get now) or any newere WS series with 7xPCIE. Use 1st, 4th and 7th slots). Titan mines when not gaming, and games when not mining, the remainder mines constantly.
Other setups though I use racks with risers.



Interesting thread, but all these setups are insanely inefficient IMHO. Expensive mobos which give you nothing extra for mining...

Here's a golden tip:

- Asrock H97 Anniversary, will run 6 cards easy, $70
- 8gb ram (2x4gb) ddr3 $50
- G1840 CPU Intel Celeron $40
- PSU of your choice to support your cards. I'm running 1KW Corsairs.
- Any 64gb SSD you can buy for $30
- Some risers, unpowered, cheapest 1x to 16x type, standard PCI-E no USB fancy stuff $10


Now use those risers and space your cards as maximum as you can, even thorse 150W cards run hot when sandwiched together.


You're done. Your hash will be higher due to extra spacing, your setup costs are minimum, you have easy access to all your cards due to open construction and plenty of spacing.




  Some Where in the first 44 page thread I explained  why I do 4 card and 2 card builds. Some in cases some on plywood as  I have  5 to 7 gamer friends I will sell rigs to.  I sold about 9 rigs back in the day when btc was mined with  pc's+gpus.
I will sell two card rigs to friends family maybe one or two here.  They will be sold as gamer/miner rigs.

    I also am able to scatter rigs around the house from Oct to April  and space heat my home. I also have 1 two card pc  in the Brooklyn Navy yard at my friends shop it mines 24/7/365 it is quiet and mines in a pc case.  The deal on that is 50 50 split on the coins it earns.



Below is why you build a six card rig  one spot for all the gear with no intention of selling pc's down the road.
Yeah a six card build with risers  on the asrock board is the cheapest way to go.  use the pentium  g 32?? cpu  

 you can do the mobo for 85 the cpu for 45 stick of ram for 40 a cheap ssd for 50 that is 220 and a 1000watt  psu on sale is 100-130 5 risers 50  so 400 for six

cards
use a piece of wood to mount the board and hang the cards from a shelf
add a box fan or 2  and you can have a  lot of gear in one spot

Don't bother. time for XMR mining was 2013.
Mine other coin and trade for XMR if you think it will raise further.
Good alternatives are LBRY (if Nvidia) or traditional ETH + 2nd coin combo if AMD

waste of money. see my other thread. all you need is H97 Anniversary edition by Asrock and a bunch of risers coupled with cheapest ram and celeron.

Workers are leaving this coin Sad

No one is leaving this coin, in fact difficulty/net hashrate has risen, the only thing is block reward is increasing until a certain block, so there's inflation. This will change when block reward will start decreasing soon.
Coin has interesting potential.

no its not.

just create a .bat file
any type in:

sgminer.exe --no-submit-stale --kernel pluck -o stratum+tcp://stratum.coin-miners.info:3636  -u YOURUSER -p password  --gpu-platform 1 -w 4 -I 13

if fail change -I from 13 to 12



Mine didn't run at --gpu-platform 1, it ran at --gpu-platform 0.

And in the beginning it starts at 11.37kh/s, but stabilizes at 9.8 kh/s

How did you OC the memory?
Try --gpu-memclock 1500

Just tried that, but it still runs at 3000Mhz on afterburner.

install nvinspector
go to overclocking
select P2 state
select unlock max
set 4000mhz
click apply

default msi afterburner only applies OC to p3 state, not P2, in which the miner is running on nvidia.



I'm getting a max of 3500Mhz and 3600Mhz on both of my cards, the slider on the nvinspector ends there, only in P3 it goes till 4000Mhz.

first OC mem in MSI Afterburner to max (4000mhz for me)
then apply
then go to NVinspector P2 state. Click "unlock max" the slider will go up to 4000mhz as well
Click apply

that will probably sound weird, but if you have lots of 750ti or 900x nvidia cards, moving to sgminer might increase the performance...

750ti 2.3->3.75
980   8.5->9.5

with "-w 4 -I 13"

performance for the 780ti are better with the cuda version...
Alas, I have not. 750ti (1280/5400 MHz) issued 1.8-1.95 kh, on the sgminer began to give 1.6-1.7 kh. Tried different values ​​of W and I.

my gtx980 pushes 11khash @ 1550mhz / 4000mem with sgminer

Yeah,the algo is realy nice and cold Wink
I can already see some space for optimization since the card are hovering at really low temps
and can be put on torchering a bit more.
But,nothing a bit of optimization with the kernels and settings cannot do.

Are you mining with nvidia? in that case you should try the sgminer (no joke) you just need to change GPU platform flag to "1"
setting for GTX980 is -w 4 -i 13 netting 10,5 Khash +
Also check your mem frequency. its using P2 state, so it doens't overclock when miner is active. you need to enable OC in P2 state manually.

GPU Usage will jump to 88%

Really looking forward to seeing this coin develop.
The algorithm is really nice, very promising.

We must ensure that more people get on board, why don't you initiate give-aways like it was done with the SpreadCoin?
e.g. people can send screenshots of first 10 coins mined (for example) and you reimburse them with additional 10 coins?

Just a suggestion.
178  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: GTX 970 or AMD R9 290x ? on: January 30, 2015, 07:48:43 PM
GTX980 is king in Spreadcoin. 5500-5600Khash easily (open tsiv miner b2)
GTX970 is around 4200khash max

This makes $$/ hash the GTX970 around 30% more efficient to use for a build.

R9 280X / R9 290X will generally use 50-60% more WATTS for around same hash depending on the coin.
Also, its hard to find a good double ball bearings equipped AMD except for ref design, which is 60-70dBA

179  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Come mine Spreadcoin (no pools!) -- I will triple your first block! on: January 28, 2015, 10:17:28 AM

180  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][SPR] SpreadCoin | True Decentralization (No Pools) on: January 27, 2015, 01:10:16 PM
Okay thanks, looks like i just need to increase my hash.
Is GTX980 king of the hill, or does R9 290X also offer great results?


I've mined 4 blocks in the first day with 1xGtx980 @ 5.2mhash and then added -x 32 flag to the miner, hashrate went up to 5.4mhash but since then no accepted shares (for like 1 day now)... could it be that the flag causes rejects? how can i check in the nvidia miner? thanks for help

Can someone please assist with the above? Is there any way to see if all is going well?

Here's image with the miner and wallet


Looks like you are still doing fine. You can go hours or even a day without finding a block with your hash rate. Remember luck plays a part in finding blocks.

Also don't know what part of the world you are in but in my time zone you have not been 24 hrs yet since your last block.
