I think that it is better to go to move from that type of eeaning site online mining because mining isnt profitable anymore and it will not be soon i think.

The difficult are not like bitcoin, it's so easy and about the old equipment are enough for getting some profit for mining zcash. if you are talking about the mining cost of zcash and that's not like mining bitcoin and really undemanding. I using two 750ti for mine this coin and although i just got a little Hs/s but it's not like your think. although just give a little money for me.  Tongue

What do you mean by the price of the mining ? It only costs you the price of the electricity it consumes Huh.

If you pay $0.2/kWh for your electricity, the ZCash mining is no long profitable. The Ethereum mining will also not profitable soon.

Depends on the card.
For a 280X which does 150W mining ZCASH the calculation is
$0.2/kWh x 0.15kW x 24h per day = $0.72 per day
ZCash earns you $1.73 with that card as we speak (hashrate = 47 Sol/s - https://www.cryptocompare.com/mining/calculator/zec)

Fellow miners, get your thens and thans in order and help other forum readers understand what you are writing. Remember the grammar basics:  B larger THAN A (comparator operator). If something THEN ....

The speed is 47 sol or 23 H/s. So if you put that value, the profit is just $0.22.

On one of my better rigs, I get around 300 sols or 50 per RX470 x 6. The entire rig (GPUs, mobo, CPU, etc) draws 580 watts from the wall when plugged in a 120V outlet and measured with a kill-a-watt meter. I normally run it at 240V and expect it gets slightly better efficiency there but do not have a precise meter for that measurement.

Anyway, using the 580 watt 120V reading, I am using 13.92 KWh each day and at $0.08 power it is costing me about about $1.11 a day. So my mining "cost" is about 300 sols for $1.11/day. According to the WhatToMine site I should earn about 0.06 ZEC/day with this rig and should clear close to $11.00 in profit after electricity costs are subtracted.

So even accounting for pool fees, miner fees, inefficiencies, lost shares, etc and only assuming I am getting about 75% of whattomine's figures show, I am still making close to $8.00/day profit after costs. For the record, the later figure is what pretty much matches up with my pool figures.

Most of my rigs were already bought and paid for by ETH mining (some even from the LTC/Doge days), so this is pretty much all profit for me. So if you are losing money even with today's depressed prices, you need to research more and tweak you cards more. You can under-volt like crazy with ZEC for some reason.

You would put 47 in as sols correlates to hashes with other algorithms. This has been explained all over many times, so while technically one iteration produces around 2 sols (1.88 on average) all calculations are based upon sols. The confusions stems from people wanting to equate iterations, rounds, or whatever you want to call them with hashes. WhatToMine simply uses the term hashes since all the rest of the coins are based off of that metric.

When using WhatToMine to base your calculations on, this is further confused by the overly optimistic predictions it offers, so the real profit prediction I found is closer to 75% of what the site displays. So since this number falls in-between your "halving" methodology and simply inputting sols, I can see where you might have been lead to believe this was correct.

Yes, with Winter coming the effective rate for power is even cheaper if you can use mining heat to offset your normal heating bill. Unfortunately, I usually have a surplus of heat, even in the Winter, so electricity is still a "cost" for me. I need to figure out a way to harness all this heat for other useful purposes, like heating my water.

For me, the heat from the miners are good in the winter. Otherwise, I have burn the gas to heat my house.

I have 2 6x280X rigs. They paid for themselves mining Ethereum back in the Spring (I was a little late to that party but still made decent money) and am now mining ZCash with $0 hardware costs and $0 electricity costs because I run my rigs at work Smiley

Can you run the 2 6x280X rigs without being noticed by your colleague? If so, you can run the 390 rigs. You can earn more.
