[ANN][POOL][SIA] SiaMining.com - 3% PPS, Stratum, VarrDiff, Long-Polling

[xurious]

SiaMining.com went live this morning. Features:

• Pay-Per-Share - 3% fee - Get paid even with orphaned blocks.
• Long Polling support - Minimize those stale shares!
• Variable Difficulty - Improves network efficiency and provides more accurate miner statistics.
• No Account setup - Simply use your wallet address as the username for easy payouts.
• Worker Support - Detailed statistics of each worker.
• Quick Payouts - Payments every 6 hours. No waiting on block confirmations!

Update 8/14/2016

• We have rolled our own miner that is under testing. In testing it's out performing GoMiner on identical harware.
• SiaMining now supports Claymore's Stratum protocol. See http://siamining.com/help for a command example. This works with both Claymore's Miner.
• Klaust's CCMiner also supports the SiaMining Stratum!
• API Has been udpated.

Update 7/21/2016

• We have implmented stratum and have miners compatible with it.
• See here for the specs:  http://siamining.com/stratum
• Win Binary available here: http://siamining.com/files/sgminer-xurious-wolf-win32.zip
• Linux users can get the info to compile here: https://github.com/SiaMining/sgminer

hi, i need help
can not set command to claymore dual eth/sia
can u give me example, if it works

[Claymore]

Sample .bat for dual mining, don't forget to change wallet addresses:

Code:

EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool us1.ethpool.org:3333 -ewal 0xD69af2A796A737A103F12d2f0BCC563a13900E6F.YourWorkerName -epsw x -dpool "http://siamining.com:9980/miner/header?address=3be0304dee313515cf401b8593a0c1df905ed13f0adaee89a8d7337d2ba8209e5ca9f297bbc2&worker=YourWorkerName" -dcoin sia

Hi xurious,
Just mined at siamining for an hour, could you please inform me how to reduce the rejections? Seems like the rejections on my cards is really worst, do i have to set anything on my config?
This is my new wallet address to mine at: be518d988db409854dec0c824e8749b1b496b7e65b103a2d44b2a6dede10a13b183e175162e4
Appreciate for your help.

Thanks.

Are you using AMD? Update your drivers. GoMiner likes 16.4+ drivers.

It will be staying at 2000 SC for the foreseeable future.

The next one was expected at 2016-07-12 07:25 UTC, the unpaid balance was ~2400. But there is no payout yet...

upd: payout was triggered at 09:25 UTC. Is it every 8 hours now?

With a huge influx of users we had to catch up on payments a little bit. Now that the hashrate has settled, we are back to normal.

Hi xurious,
Is there any tips for nvidia cards? Got big rejection with nvidia with latest cuda driver.
Thank You.

Not sure. What is your setup like? Which miner? Windows or Linux? Driver? Etc.

[xurious]

Attention! We've added a small update to GoMiner to improve the rate of invalids some miners see. Please update as soon as possible. Links for the binaries are as follows:

Windows: http://siamining.com/files/gominer/win64/gominer.exe

Linux: http://siamining.com/files/gominer/linux-amd64/gominer.tar.gz

In different news, we are working on a true stratum implementation! Which will be more scalable and versatile than a 'getwork over tcp' sort of approach.

[willi9974]

it is possible to mine on SIA with a BTC address so all SIA get payed directly in BTC to a BTC address?

[xurious]

There are currently no plans to do rewards in any currency other than Sia.

I have not tried it, but doing payouts to https://shapeshift.io might work!

when will you offer a ready-to-use Windows 64 Stratum miner? I mean it is neither motivating nor professional that you promote "NEW! True Stratum Support" at your start page and then point out that I have to compile it by myself. I haven´t the know-how and I also don´t want to have it. It´s the pools job to serve the best software, not mine.

We just added this information minutes ago.

We offer the code for anyone to inspect and compile. It should be motivating we are continuing to improve the pool to serve you, the miners!

Certainly when a windows exectuable is compiled and ready, we will have it released.

Claiming it's unprofessional is ridiculous. Releasing an untested windows binary would be unprofessional.

[xurious]

Updated the OP with info on Stratum and stratum miners.

[Termie]

your SGminer don´t work here with my AMD cards, which works fine with Gominer.

sgminer --algorithm=sia --url=stratum+tcp://siamining.com:3333 --userpass=(myAddress) -I 30

results in

[19:37:21] clDevicesNum returned error, no GPUs usable
[19:37:21] All devices disabled, cannot mine!

You need to append "--GPU-Platform 1" to your command.

[Termie]

ok thank you, with "--gpu-platform 1" (lower case) it works.

But SGminer don´t impress me at the moment. At only slightly higher (but more constant) hashrate compared to Gominer, the whole miner hardware takes more power (+10W at my R9 Nanos, +20W at my R9 290x), also CPU load raises permanetly up to 33% (Gominer 0-4% most of time). So I hope that a upcoming version will make it better. For now I´ll stay at Gominer. This just as little feedback.

Excellent. Good to know.

For reference: We don't write the mining software, just added in patches to support stratum and pool mining. If you have a particular issue with a certain miner, it's best speaking to the dev of that miner.

[xurious]

Added more API info!

[xurious]

Added an update that we support Claymore's Stratum Protocol, and our own miner is in testing!

I have tried a number of things. Seems fairly straight forward but it is not working. Only pool I can get to work for sia Suprnova and I still don't see any payments for shares after 8 hours of mining and their dashboard seems bunk. Trying to find alternatives but cant seem to find any that actually work.

"ccminer -a sia -o stratum+tcp://siamining.com:3333 -u 781e78dcde52cbc2b1ff264d4c86ac24330795be6b7589bceeec084d00b35df66fa7cad6873b.mi ne"

Hash on suprnova is too low, you need to wait approx 24h before you see coins as we only find around one block per day. However I am integrating Claymore now and I hope that will help to raise hash a bit, it's currently a pretty bad situation

ccminer -a sia -e --url=stratum+tcp://siamining.com:3333 -u YourSiacoinAddress.YourWorkerName -i 28 should be the command with KlausT/CCminer. I don't have an nvidia box on hand to check at the moment.

Also, depends on which version of CCMiner you have. There's a few that work with Sia now.

We were made aware of a slight issue earlier today that affected a small batch out payout transactions. The issue has been corrected.

Payouts affected by the issue have had the transactions actions cancelled, the amount added back to their balance, and new payments have been queued.

As of this writing, the payouts have already started to have been sent.

Hello guys, i am not able to mine

Tried marlin but it is stuck at "starting marlin 1.0"

[oup59]

I mine with Claymore 9.5 in ETH+SIA dual mode with Win10 x64 but after some random time I disconnected from siamining pool but ETH keep mining?

Screen says can not resolve siamining.com and can not connect stratum/tcp.....:port 7777 stuff

Is it a pool or gpu mod issue?

Power should be enough. It is a 5 RX 570 rig whicn consumes around 850W on the wallon dual mode and PSU is Corsair RM1000x.
