Seems like that's already been said 5,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 times in this thread.  Roll Eyes
Here's hoping that number isn't also a prediction for future difficulty.

I'm getting the following error message for MRR. Is there anything I can do about it?

One or more workers on this rig has been assigned a share/worker difficulty by your pool that is too low. Hashrate performance issues may occur.
The OPTIMAL Difficulty range for this rig is 18,626 - 112k
Please either adjust your worker settings at your pool, or change pools if you are unable to do this at your current pool. Thanks!

If you are not mining at ckpool.org, you are just doing it wrong.

It will adjust so shouldn't be a problem. If it's a problem, connect to port 4334 instead.

Thanks for your help CK. I changed the port to 4334 and removed the worker extension. The owner of the rig is saying "diff shows 1MEG on the miner. It will never return any hash at that diff. Diff should be about 12k."

Doesn't matter. Leave it there and it will adjust down as soon as 3 shares have been submitted.

It will return hashes, it'll simply take a longer time (also means your effective pool hashrate will fluctuate a lot more).
Assuming you're mining with an Antminer S9, you'll get a share every 5-6 minutes (on average).

It never did. I had it pointed to port 4334 for a few hours and then back to port 3333. On port 4334, I was getting an error message that my diff was too high. On port 3333, the diff was too low.  I created a support ticket and was able to get almost 100% refund.

This quote is from one of the admins from MRR:

"We do have to pay the rig owner for the time that the rental was elapsed. This rig owner does well on his rigs, you can see the rig's history is stable. Your pool choice did not work, we do not give refunds for pool related issues.
If we gave away full refunds everytime a renter makes a mistake, we'd go bankrupt really quickly.
I'll issue a credit this time, but we expect the investment should be worth while.
Thanks."

I do have to say that their support team responded to my ticket in a matter of minutes, which was nice to see, I was renting 8THs for 900 hours coming from an R4. Maybe I did make a mistake, but I was using a saved profile that worked in the past. The one thing I really don't like about this whole deal is that if you look at the renter's current rental history, I'm listed as green (positive).

Just FYI...
I have used port 4334...it worked fine...kind of cool to see min diff of shares at 1,000,000.
Insane amount of discards and variance does swing but no rejects, no stales and hash rate did average out fine...
Not a rental...190TH..14x S9's

I'm now renting 82T for about 72 hours using port 3333. I did see the too low error message for about 30 minutes, but now everything has level out.

The default port should scale to any hashrate. Port 4334 won't go below 1 million and is purely for shit rental services that limit connections to 1M+

Hmmm  I wonder what service does that. (just kidding I know just who it is)

Hello All,

Question, Can you actually make money renting rigs?  I am totally new to the renting and have looked at a couple of companies.  The numbers don't look like you can come out ahead on the deal.  I would be willing to take some profits and rent if I could come out with a bit more that I put in...  Any suggestions on where to rent and how would be appreciated...  Please explain to the mind of a newbie so small words and pictures would be great...
The short answer is: almost never. On rare occasions you can rent hash for a low price and come out ahead; 99% of the time you'll either make pennies or spent more than you get out of it (if you could regularly make more than miners charge to rent, then miners [not counting n00bs using some point&click app] wouldn't rent).

If you have to ask "why?", you wouldn`t understand my answer.
Always be on the look out, because you never know when you'll be stalked by hit-men that eat nothing but cream cheese....

Thinking of pointing my new miners over here. They aren't very big, though. I am trying to see if it is worth my effort. What is the current dust limit to get on the payout list?

And just to confirm my understanding after reading through these last few pages : if I contribute shares and earn above the payout threshold, as a little guy I go on the list to eventually get paid, even if I stop mining here in the interim?

The current dust limit is the smallest amount you can spend on the bitcoin network. However even if you get above the dust limit it means you will then get into the queue for a payout in one of the subsequent blocks, but you will eventually be paid provided you keep mining. The only caveat is that blocks are so infrequent at our current hashrate it could be a year or more before that happens unless through some miracle our hashrate gets much larger.

"...provided you keep mining"

So, just to clarify, if I get in the payout queue after finding a block and then stop mining before the next block - Does that mean I'll evenly cycle through and be paid? Or do I have to keep mining to maintain the spot?

My understanding is that you pay out only 150 at a time and the smaller miners that have earned a payout go on a payout list - but when they actually get to the top of that list is just a matter of time... Or does it mean we have to keep mining to hold our place on the list?

If you don't keep mining when you hit the payout list there is a chance, however slight, that we end up having a block that is over 500% diff and then you won't get anything whereas continuing to mine will maintain your spot.

Correct me if I'm wrong but at the current hashrate plus difficulty you should be hitting around one block per month.

That's about right. I said a year because he won't get into the first block found after breaking the dust limit and add the time taken to reach the dust limit. That and diff keeps rising.

I did and I dont' regret. Even smallest miner will eventually get paid, don't worry. And BTC fees are getting lower, if you didn't noticed. Today I paid 0.03 USD to transfer my BTC (like 2 satoshi per byte), and I got confirmation in first block.  Grin

I am mining with Antminer U3 @ 58 GH/s. It's going to stay there forever. Long live ckpool!

Where can you see the work_diff data mentioned during the following section of the website:

Quote from: ckpool.org
sqrt (MIN (share diff, network_diff) / work_diff) * work_diff / 2

I see DERP, HERP, shares, etc.; however, I don't see work_diff so I can run through few mathematical scenarios.
