[ANN] dstm's ZCash / Equihash Nvidia Miner v0.6.2 (Linux / Windows)

[pubix]

How do I make my miner start with 1 min delay after a boot up? What should I put in my .bat file?

timeout /t 60

will wait for 60 seconds or until you press a key.

Thank you sir!

Hi, dstm! Big thanks for your miner.
I gets a lot of RECV, farm reconnects and keep working, but I think, that shares a lost.

[wolverine5pl]

likes to crash way too often on win10

[nevermind41]

Which driver is recommended for best result?

[patinencomun]

Connection refused to nicehash equihash.eu.nicehash.com:3357 authorization failed

zec and bitcoin gold pool servers working good.

Any ideas?
Thank you

[colective]

Hi,

Since yesterday I have an issue : sinit timeout after GPU connection

I though it was a driver error so uninstalled/reinsitalled drivers, but nothing changes.

I then tried on a second RIG I have with NVidia cards : same issue.

In the sametime, Claymore Ethereum is working fine on those cards...

Any suggestion ?

Christophe

Hi, I have same issue "sinit timeout"

I updated BIOS on Matherbord, it doesn't help.

How did you fix it?

[Seb83]

Could some of you guys check your devfee stats

Tonight I ran 1 of my rigs about 4 hours it produced this:

58 hits of * and 568 hits of +

That is much more than 2%.

Hopefully there is a genuine explanation in there.

I'm about the last person to defend the devfees charged by some of these miners, because many of them are still beta or even alpha-level in functionality/reliability, but I suspect the explanation here is that the devfee shares are mined at a much lower difficulty to better ensure a share is earned during the short mining period allotted.

But this is just a theory on my part.

I think your theory is right.

Beside, zm is mining devfee on zcash flypool (see here: https://zcash.flypool.org/miners/t1NEpmfunewy9z5TogCvAhCuS3J8VWXoJNv insane, am i rite? )
and WaveRiderx is probably mining another coin on another pool with obviously different difficulty,
so counting * an + is a waste of time.

I've checked the devfee, it is exactly 2%.

If you think that's alot, Claymore is making 1M+ per week.

Yes, but he has been there for much longer and he has miners for like everything that is mineable!
But you're right... insane too

Anyway. If you calculate, 2% is about $300 a year per rig (at today's rate, so probably much more).
I let you decide if it is too much...

And then, you have pool fee, transactions fee, trading fees, withdrawal fee, income taxes...
EDIT: I forgot electricity! that's about 20% for me
Basically, you guys are mining for others! I'm just saying...

How exactly can I use the json-rpc?

I've enabled the telemetry. If i load IP:port in browser i see the page.

So for json-rpc i tried different options with postman and failed on all. Is there something that i'm missing?
https://i.imgur.com/qgF7EVj.png

I tried writing a scraper for Prometheus using the json-rpc API yesterday, in both Python and then in Java using standard http client libs and found with both that the API does NOT produce a consumable output.  In Java, posting with the specified request ( {"id":1, "method":"getstat"} the post to the API port throws an http.ProtocolException "The server failed to respond with a valid HTTP response".

I'd like to use this more elegant json output from a POST rather than scraping through the html on a GET.

Meh, I don't begrudge the miner authors their cut as long as they deliver something that makes said cut worth paying and respond to issues in a timely manner. That said, bringing in >$360k US every month might sap the motivation to actually do real work... because, baller lifestyle, right?

hhmmm  Coinbase wants my personal login info for my  bank?  lol.. what could possibly go wrong?

That's to verify your bank account instantly. If you don't want to do that you can use the other method, they will deposit your bank some small amount and you need to confirm the amount, but it can take 3+ days

Thx, for providing this data.                                                                                                  
You have a lot 'nvidia-settings' processes running in your 'After top' output. This could be the reason for the performance drop.

Just to add my voice to this list, I'm also an SMOS user experiencing the same issue.  HOWEVER, it's only on my 13 card 1070 rigs (H110).  I have a 6 card 1060 rig (Z270-A) that has been running for days with no drop in performance, also on SMOS.

Thanks for being responsive!

UPDATE:  For me, the problem seems to have gone away with v0.5.7.  24 hours solid now with no performance dropoff.  Added 2 more 13 card rigs about 8 hours ago and all seems solid.

Thx for the update, is the issue resolved now?

[dstm]

can someone explain to me the new version changelog.

that protocol thing.

It resolves compatibility issues with some pools.

[dstm]

at least 1 time a day dstm stops working, hastrate 0, in the logs it does not say any reason. some help? latest version 0.5.8 windows 10 pro
use ETHcontrol (last version)
It has happened to me in 2 different rigs

How are you generating the logfiles? Are you using some kind of restart-script? It might not properly redirect error-messages (stderr).
