I have a .bat file that specifies core and memory overclocks dependent on each algo template. Currently I am remoting and running these .bats before switching templates.

I noticed there's a section to run the same commands but what directory should I specify to run the .bat from?

Is there a folder I should place the .bat in or do I specify the commands in that box?


It's info like this:

SET GPU0=-setBaseClockOffset:0,0,125 -setMemoryClockOffset:0,0,450 -setPowerTarget:0,77 -setTempTarget:0,0,75 -forcepstate:0,0
SET GPU1=-setBaseClockOffset:1,0,125 -setMemoryClockOffset:1,0,450 -setPowerTarget:1,77 -setTempTarget:1,0,75 -forcepstate:1,0
SET GPU2=-setBaseClockOffset:2,0,125 -setMemoryClockOffset:2,0,450 -setPowerTarget:2,77 -setTempTarget:2,0,75 -forcepstate:2,0
SET GPU3=-setBaseClockOffset:3,0,125 -setMemoryClockOffset:3,0,450 -setPowerTarget:3,77 -setTempTarget:3,0,75 -forcepstate:3,0

You add these extra settings in the "command line" parameters in either the pool or miner settings.  Awesome Miner is creating the equivalent of a .bat file from all of the settings you enter in the GUI.  The point of a product like AM is that you don't have to remote in and configure bat files anymore.

There's already a cryptopay api, marketplace shouldn't be hard to make. Thing is... At the current price, nobody would like to put more money on the coin Sad

The current price is not a problem, the problem is, DNR didn't have enough attention.

So far, DNR is just another alt coin in a bunch of alt coins on Cryptopia.

Nobody will take it seriously if a coin only can be traded on Cryptopia.

But, on the other hand, it's also a good time to collect a good coin when rare people knew it Smiley

Look at most coins' history, and you will see that it takes time to build a proper economy.  Give it about a year, and I think you will be pleasantly surprised about DNR.

Can I use awesome miner to profit switch on a Baikal miner?
I don't have any reports from users of Baikal miners on this, so I actually don't know. If the "Prioritize" button is working when you select one of the pools on the miner, the External Profit Switcher will work as well. Setup instructions:
http://www.awesomeminer.com/help/profitswitching.aspx#externalprofit

I have a Baikal, and it works if you setup a pool group to do profit switching, or to mine a single pool directly.  But, if you are looking to switch algorithms on a Baikal, you should use the built in support for Nicehash, Miningpoolhub, or Zpool directly from the Baikal interface and set it up as an external miner in AM.

I heard people said that Bitcoin's profit is higher than profit of drug dealer, weapon dealers or profit of real property or any kind of stocks. Is that real ?

No, that's not true... especially as a blanket statement.  Sure you can find individual cases where that may be true, but the drug, weapons, real estate and stock markets are measured in the trillions.

Loads of great info on this forum - so Im sorry if this has been covered before.

I want to start mining alt-coins. Is it possible with eg one 12 GPU setup to mine simultaneously alt-coins such as Vertcoin and Monero?

Electricity cost is approx $0.04/kWh.

And....Do you think it will be profitable? I have budget for the rig.

Thanks guys Smiley

edit GPU - something like Nvidia EVGA GTX 1060 Gaming SC 6GB

Don't take this the wrong way, but all this information is available via the search function here at this website, or via google.  Do you really expect people to do all the leg-work for you and you sit back and reap the benefits?

Can i still recieve my ZEN for Zclassic chain split?   Let me know how I can go about doing this please

Only if you held Zclassic before the split.  Is this the case?

Keep at least 42 ZenCash on the server in a t_address for staking

Can I suggest a wording change here?  You don't have to keep the 42 Zencash staked on the securenode wallet.  It can be on a wallet you keep somewhere else.

Also, you need to add that there is a requirement at startup of your secure node that you have a minimum of 1 Zencash in a Z_address on the securenode wallet.  Currently, you need to send a total of 1 Zencash in small increments (like 0.2 in 5 transactions), or you may run into a situation where the first challenge pulls the entire 1 Zen, and then report that you don't have a minimum 0.0001 balance on the Z_address.

So... in total... you need a minimum of 43 Zencash to get started with a securenode.

hello , where is it that i could talk/ask someone for help with setting up a node? i  got a tls certificate and am on part 2.5 but when i testing it after adding the cert to my vim zen.conf  it keeps showing up tls cert- false after i getinfo.. . thanks in advance!

Your best bet is to join the slack or discord chats.  There's always someone there to help troubleshoot or answer questions.

On the 42 zen needed to run a secure node, has there been any thought on changing this number, and specifically why 42 was chosen in the first place?

It has been discussed before, but 42 is a very famous number... but beyond the cheekiness of it, 42 zen makes it reasonable for many people to setup a secure node.  If you raise the number, then the costs become prohibitive as in the case of Dash nodes.  If you lower it, then you dilute the pool of secure nodes making them less attractive.  It's a little bit game-theory, and a little bit to promote decentralization.


Quote
Reason being is that with the recent price jump, you now need about 1k in usd worth of zen to run a secure node, while before when zen was priced lower, you could get enough zen through about 300 usd worth of zen.

Valid point, but the number 42 for secure nodes has been published since Zencash went live.  It's not fair to punish early adopters in my opinion.


Quote
I suppose this rewards early movers who had zen before it was cool, but just wondering if the current plan is to keep the requirement at 42 zen, regardless of price movement. Assuming the price continues to trend upwards, it could be a barrier to more people running secure nodes (should you need more people to do so).

I don't think so.  If it's profitable for people to stand up a secure node, then people will do so.

Also, it is confirmed, @Tyke aka. Chris P. Thompson, will be writing a book about Denarius and it's first year of history. It will be released sometime next year in the summer of 2018.

Well, that's kind of unique.  Still a lot of time before it comes out, but it would be interesting to maybe have them post some excerpts here to get a feel for this book?

First you need to decide what to mine.  The web site whatomine.com is a good place to start.  Input your estimated hash rates for your 290 and the it will tell you a good coin to mine.  Then go out and get the appropriate Miner software for that coin/algo.  Then find a pool that supports that coin, sign up or look at their help pages.  Setup your .bat file and start mining.

Can we mine these "ICO tokens"?  No?  Then this is the wrong forum. You should move this thread to Speculation.

This worked. I correct what I said earlier - once you get the hang of this program it is easier.

I have some software suggestions that would push profitability to surpass NHML by far.

1. THE ABILITY TO CREATE A PROFILE WITH DIFFERENT SOFTWARES!!!! (ie. EWBF for equihash, excavator for x11, etc, etc) My initial suggestion of benchmarking all algos on all software would solve this. The AwesomeMiner Program would automatically keep the highest hashrate of all mining software for that algo.


You might be able to do this already with Profit Profiles.  In there, you select the software you want to be active, which algos they do, etc.  You apply the Profit Profile to a Profit Miner.  You'd then create a pool group with all the pools/coins you want to mine against, and then set it all in motion on the Profit Miner.

596  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Baikal A2000 problem on: October 21, 2017, 09:27:49 PM
The Baikal A2000 can mine any X11, X13, X14, X15, Qubit, or Quark coin.  Start at whattomine.com to see if any are profitable for you.  Not all coins are on whattomine.com... so... search the forums here.
597  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Looking for Miner network on: October 21, 2017, 08:30:10 PM
If you are looking to create a mining ecosystem, then it might be best to fork one of the existing coins and use the hashing algorithm that makes the most sense for you.  Existing algorithms are plentiful, but they have different characteristics.  You'd want to decide if you want an ASIC-resistant algorithm or want to embrace them.

If you are just looking to "tokenize" a product or transactions, then it's probably easier to create your own token based off of Etherium's ERC20 standard or other token platforms like Waves.  Tokens are typically not able to be mined, so the ecosystem should be planned and considered carefully.

So we do need a domain name for a secure node. Namecheap is cheap for the first year, but make sure to check how much the 2nd year costs from wherever you buy your domain from. Those guides are really easy to understand.  Cool

There are plenty of free DNS providers where you can get a domain name.

hi would you mind sharing one? Thank you

I use freedns.afraid.org.  People upload their registered domain names, and allow people to make subdomains off of it.  So for instance if someone purchased xyz.xyz and provide it to feedns.afraid.org, and made it public, then you can make a node1.xyz.xyz subdomain, and use that as the host name for your rig.  You just point your IP to that subdomain, and viola.  You have your own publicly available domain name that you can access for free.  When you are doing the letsencrypt steps in the zencash secure node preparation, you supply the FQDN of "node1.xyz.xyz"

No reason to purchase your own domain name unless you really want a specific domain name or a vanity name.

This coin is mega undervalued. Its easy 100 million marketcap will reach 3000 sats soon.

Why do you say it's undervalued?  What criteria are you basing this analysis on?
