If I choose to mint the coins in the Zerocoin tab it means I will receive more coins by participating in PoS?

I have been having issues with miner gate ETH and ETC mining and getting nothing, seems like I have been mining for nothing. I have looked but I can not find anywhere where it says this was fixed? Anyone see anything?
Are you CPU-mining? if you do then no wonder you're getting nothing, CPUs are not profitable for mining ETH. If you are mining with a GPU get a proper miner and a pool and start mining outside of Minergate.

Do you actually expect Monero to pump just because it was added in Jaxx?

scam he is gone now. 250 btc scam.
A pretty nice paycheck for a few LinkedIn accounts.

The prize is $10000 for each miner and it has to be open source. Good luck getting Claymore involved... That amount of $10,000 is too low for Claymore. I believe that he earned hundreds of thousands from his miners. There are countless people who will compete for the development, he's not the god of miners.

If your coins were inside Poloniex when the fork occured, you should have two seperate ETH and ETC balances on the exchange site.

0.03KH/s with an i7-6700K at 4.2Ghz. is it even possible to get higher hashrates? refuses to start mining on a FX-8150.

There is a 30,000$ contest for an opensource GPU miner. many people are going to send their miners and I'm sure one of them is going to deliver a great product.
Claymore's miners are easy to use, well-designed and stable, but I still prefer an open source one.

Haven't ever experienced a throttle personally, and I use pretty large amounts of bandwidth monthly.
I did a couple of years ago. They didn't even tell me how much I'd used, and it can't have been very much as I don't really download very much at all. They kindly reduced me to 100 kbps for several weeks. I'm rather rural so don't have much choice in terms of providers. At 100kbps you can't even load an HTML page quickly. must have been annoying. Here they state "unlimited bandwidth" but I have heard stories about people who torrent a lot get throttled. but they don't tell you anything, you just load Google for 5 seconds one morning.

Obtaining it might be. I've known people with supposedly unlimited broadband who got throttled after downloading 30gb in a month. Maybe they had shit providers.

So for now, I have a 970 and 1070 in a rig. I'm getting 420 MH/s from those two, at around 260W. Does someone has ideas to improve this without damaging the cards with too much OC or running them at near no electrical cost but to get pennies ?
420MH? I'm sure you meant 42. but you can try undervolting and overclocking. you can also mod them and switch the BIOS. Oh my bad ! I forgot to state that it was on LBRY. It seems I though it was evident, but it isn't. I'm looking for precise value for the overcloking and the undervolting. I can easily increase the hashrate by 10%, but the underclocking part isn't working. GPU-Z still gives me the same TDP use. Each card is different and you will have to find out the limits for your cards. maybe you won the silicon lottery. usually a 10% increase in clockspeed results in close to 10% more hashrate, not sure if it's true for LBRY's algorithm. And I wouldn't trust GPU-Z for the wattages. get a kill-a-watt if you want precision.

This might seem a bit of a digression but I was wondering if there is a website for checking your ether balance on the ethereum network similar to blockchain.info Thanks.
Yes there is. etherscan.io and etherchain.org.

Thanks YIz!! I thought I was going a bit crazy there not being able to find where to register on that site lol.
I understand that part about replacing "YOUR ADDRESS" with my own ETH wallet address, but what about the "WORKER" name after the period? Do I just leave that as is? If not, what do I replace it with?
Actually, when I look at my start.bat file in the Claymore folder i downloaded a few days ago, there is no worker name after the ETH wallet address, so maybe that is not needed at all for ETH?
Thanks also for the tip about myetherwallet.com. I was going to just use the address of my ETH wallet on Bittrex, but I will check out what you recommended shortly. Do you see any advantage of using that over an exchange wallet?
Thanks again!
You're very welcome. you do not have to change the worker, workers are generally for people who have more than one rig, and want to be able to differentiate between them on the pool. You can PM your worker name and your ETH address and I will put them in the config file for you, if you are having troubles with it. and there are MANY advantages in using myetherwallet over an exchange wallet. you control your funds. just make sure you store your private key safely. anyone who has access to it can withdraw your ether without permission.

I have just built a mining rig and looking to start using Claymore's dual ETH & DCR miner. I have already joined the Suprnova DCR pool and created my worker name to paste into the Claymore .bat file, but am having trouble figuring out how to do the same for the ETH piece.
When I go the ethminer.org, I cannot figure out how to join or register. Do you even need to do so? If registration is needed, could someone please provide basic instructions on how to do so? If it is not needed, then how exactly are you supposed to create the worker name that is needed in the code after the ETH wallet address?
Thanks in advance for any tips!
With ethermine.org you do not need to register. you open an ethereum wallet, I recommend myetherwallet.com, and you mine to that address. Example: "EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool eu1.ethermine.org:4444 -ewal YOURADDRESS.WORKER -epsw x" replace YOURADDRESS with your ethereum address you got at myetherwallet and start mining. you will need to add your DCR pool configuration.

Not sure why this is happening, maybe because of the incoming hard fork, people are scared of this word because of the DAO. Below 0.02 BTC atm, might be a good time to buy some more.

For the same price, go with the RX 480. A 970 can only achieve 20Mh/s while modded 480s can break 30Mh.

All reference 290 refurb units I got at newegg a few months back when they had the sale.
Alright thanks, I'll get a card or two then. turns out they're not bad like their reputation.

I love my 290's, they are built like tanks and run stable. Small oc and you can get 29 mh easy
They are not that power efficient and are a bit loud but I have mine in the shop. If you have cheap power costs then they can be a good option, with a undervolt they consume about 220 watts at the wall. Reapply the crusty thermal grease and use a custom fan profile and they will run at decent temps.
Thanks for your reply. I am currently using a few Hawaiis, but they are all aftermarket cooled. do you own reference cards?
