Fifth alt coin thread last four got too big.

[QuintLeo]

I bought 2 of those 2400w servers PSU's too Citronick. I like them, my only critique is sometimes they put out a very high pitched whistle.
 

I am in contact with their engineer and he said the Delta last forever only downside is that its meant for Data Centre use and its super loud due to the fan system. Its not meant for home use..... however, there are quiet as a mouse if load is less than 50%

40 mm fans are always going to be high RPM (and make a high-pitched noise) if they flow enough to cool a big PS like this Delta.

 Delta makes good gear in general - this PS is made by the same company that makes Delta fans, and a few other items.

If you have RX cards, mining UBIQ is profitable & hot now (uses Ethash algo) and its doesn't have crazy diff levels like ETH and you can still use Claymore dual miner. Dual mining possible. DCR is really hot now.

After you told me this, I started to mine UBIQ directly on Ubiq pool Is there a better pool for it?

And the profit is lower than it was with ETH, or a friend told me about EXP.

Could you tell me, in your opinion, why you consider is better Ubiq now? After 2 days, with 4 x RX 570 I made 7.5 Ubiq. Is this all right? Too much, too less? )

No judge, just want to know why you pointed me towards that coin. Anyhow, I listened to you and now I'm mining it

In 2 days -- you got 7.5 UBIQ coins.
In 2 days mining ETH..... not even 1 coin I think, due to the very very difficulty level.

UBIQ is a good alternative post-ETH mining.

There are several more other Ethash algo based coins like Expanse etc.

I mine at ubiqpool.io for UBIQ.

I have 11 rx 570. I have calculated that i use 1550w total setup in two rigs. Is this power usage high? Thats about 140w per card (including other components), or 135w without other components.

If they are all running at stock settings, with no undervolting and you're using a 90% efficiency PSU I could see them using 135w at the wall for each GPU. 

[vuli]

what's the catch with UBQ pools? Every pool I tried I get
"Socket was closed remotely (by pool)
ETH: Job timeout, disconnect, retry in 20 sec..."

using Claymore's
EthDcrMiner64.exe -epool stratum+tcp://eu.ubiqpool.io:8008 -ewal 0xxxxx62A9d6b5xxxxx6759xxxxxdxx2 -epsw x -eworker rig1

[sNaKeyz0r91]

Add -allcoins 1 and it should work.

Running them on average 1150/2040 bios modded with undervolt only done with clynmore miner ccvdc option.

I got a few PMs about UBIQ coins.

Let me clarify...

My ETH farms (6GHs) are NOT swinging to UBIQ mining.

However, my group have a small NVIDIA 1070, P106-100 farm that are mining UBIQ.

My point about UBIQ mining and why its a good alternative are as follows:

1. If you have a farm or many rigs - because of bigger hash, its still profitable to mine ETH but difficulty levels will creep in sooner or later - this is the main design of the "ice-age" phase nearing POS to discourage miners to drop off from POW. There is a possibility of POS delay up to 1.5 years more ... hopefully this can be confirmed and diff levels can be slowed down a bit more.

2. If you have only a few rigs, the difficulty levels will kick in very fast and its a lost cause mining ETH because it will take even longer to earn a coin.... while you could have earned more revenue in other coins. However, there are other coins that uses Ethash like UBIQ that is new and easy to mine and earn whole coins.

3. Continuity to mine and ROI your RX cards which are ideal for Ethash algorithm. RX can of course can mine ZEC and XMR or whatever, but by design and development of miner app like Claymore, they are best for Ethash/Dagger-Hashimoto coins.

Speaking of mining different coins, what's recommended for 1080 ti to mine, simply equihash?

What's the 1080 ti output on other algo other than ethash?

Thanks for you suggestion but it looks -allcoins 1 doesn't solve my problem. I don't get it anymore, so wierd.

Just FYI, the USA server for UBIQ has been having technical difficulties, causing people to be randomly kicked or unable to reconnect, switch to the europe server for a few days tell its fixed.

Hi guys, have a question. were do i get info on how many miners i can run off my available power. i have a new 125 amp service with 4 open spots. how many bitman d3 could be put on this. is it just one per breaker? or is there a better way to setup?

What else the panel supplying power for? AC? Heater? Stove? Water Heater? Water pump? There is no way for us to know the answer to that without physically checking the power draw of everything in the panel. Sorry. An electrician will be able to tell you how many available amps you have to use. The number of open slots in a panel means nothing.

okay  you absolute want 240 service on 1 outlet

you want to use 10 gauge wire

you want a 30 amp breaker  with 1 l6-30 r

you want this

this is rated 240 volts and  4900 watts 24/7/365   this is the derated number.

  you would be able to run 4 rigs each pulling 1200 watts

or 5 rigs pulling 980 watts
or 6 rigs pulling  800 watts

you will need some power cords  to go from the bar to the psu's

Phil and colleagues,

What we are doing before 31st of July with coins we have at: poloniex, coinbase, hashnest and other services?

Electrum? Bitcoin Core wallet? Or just leave them on those websites?

iif you leave them on the site, you are at the mercy of what chain they pick to keep them on.... unless magically they are courteous enough to give you your coins on both chains.


I can imagine coinbase sticking everyone on the good chain, and taking everything and dumping it off on the bad chain... for inter-company profit.    There's nothing keeping them from doing such a thing.... since they control the funds....

[COINKING84]

thanks guys, yeah I'm just going to try and get one miner(Bitman d3 or l3) for now so that i can keep the other coins that i hold. would not be worth that setup unless I'm getting more? Is itsafe to run a dedicated 20 amp circuit with 12-2 wire? could i run 2 on this? or just one miner?

 I would not leave Bitcoin on any exchange - but I don't normally do that anyway except for small quantities that aren't worth the transaction fee (yet) to move.

 Convert to cash, spend on more mining gear on or before July 30, convert to a different coin, or leave in your own wallet in that order are the safest options.

Okay  I have  90% of my coins in btc in a core 0.14.2 wallet that has 4 hdd backups.

Still wonder if this is wise  but  I am staying with that.

I have .5btc contract with hashnest  can not do anything

I have  under .10 btc in 2 blockchain hot wallets
I have  under .10 btc in bittrex exchange  mostly DBG and SIA
I have under  .01 btc in poleniex
I have  .035 btc in coinbase
I have  7.0  ltc in coinbase.
I have 0.01 btc in a trezor.

I sold a lot of coins and gear and have a strong cash  position in my bank.

This was my best year ever  and I am not looking to lose everything back in a crash.

However  if a crazy stupid crash happens I may buy  a lot of coins.
