26 GH/s on single rig Ethereum Mining

[CryptoSocial]

Hi,
   The question that's giving me goosebumps and sleepless night is how is this guy managing to get 26 GH/s with a single worker?

They say the coins are asic resistant not asic Proof.  Look at dash they have 10-15ghs miners for sale now. As diff goes crazy high on these coins don't be fooled in thinking it's some kind of mass adoption.  It's mega farms nothing more to it

Don't panic, it's likely just someone pointing multiple rigs to one worker.

[ESJai]

This is nothing new. Here are three possible reasons:
1) You can point all rigs into one worker (or just no worker name at all)
2) You can get hashpower from nicehash which also points to one worker usually wiithout a worker name
3) This is one of the devfee wallet which devfee mining doesn't specify worker name

[CryptoSocial]

What I am more afraid of is that somehow, someone might have manipulated ASIC to mine ethereum, as mentioned in one of the replies that it's ASIC resistance NOT ASIC proof, this would result all our GPU miners being dumped as the difficulty levels would shoot out of the roof!!

That 26G is interesting , since 16 June it stopped sending ETH to BTC-E .

[jezus]

Many rig point to one etherum address.

[CryptoSocial]

If you check the home page, the list of top miners, there are many such miners with exactly the same hash powers.

Moreover a couple of them were found with multiple 26 GH/s workers. This makes me believe about the possibility of multiple ASIC miners.

That is because BTC-e's owner is in custody on charges of money laundering. The domain has been seized by US authorities.

I read the news somewhere, will post the link for you if I find it again.

Doubtful there are ASICS. Likely there are FPGA arrays crunching away, but ASICs wouldn't be able to have this much silence if they existed yet.

There are a few server builders out there and last I checked Bitworks has a ~130 MH/s ETH rig in a 4U server chassis. 20 of those to a single address and bam you got 26 GH/s. Wouldn't doubt it might be Bitworks themselves using that pool for burn in too...

Who knows... but ASICs aren't a concern yet, and they can be dealt with in these coins.

this is true those possibilities are the things that influence why that we seen hash rate like this we can just easily
point of rigs into single worker and it will show that its belong to one owner but the miners belongs to multiple
system.

not asic at all, that is some dumbass forgetting to set workers name, i can do that to eveyrone can and show a huge hashrate, but you lose shares if you do that,because different rig with different hashrate works with different difficult, so if you point them all to one worker, you can lose some profit

[mauver_korea]

It's normal speed for you GPU.

One worker's average speed looks like you.

[QuintLeo]

Multiple GPU rigs with no worker name set up.

 They likely are using local monitoring software to keep track of their miners as opposed to relying on the pool to do so - in which case they're NOT a dumbass.

 If the rigs are all using same or similar cards, the difficulty thing is not an issue.


 If I pointed everything I have that CAN mine ETH at ETH right now, I could get over 1 Ghash - and I'm a SMALL miner by pro standards with quite a few cards that are NOT optimal for ETH and some older ones that can't mine it at all.

The first address is one of Claymore's Ethereum dev fees addresses. So this 26GH/s is the sum of all the dev fees hashrate he get with the version(s) of Claymore's Dual Eth miner with this address set.

Oh boy!!! This claymore guy is playing in millions, time to write a mining software I believe!!

I agree maybe is not asic.  But with the future everyone is counting on with eth I have no doubt that it's in the works.  Also @130 mhs it would take over 200 of the 4u eth miners.  Now that's not unheard of by any means.   When I look at the coins that have any potential I see asics.  Heck take dash for example.  They knew it would be hard to make asic but they were realistic and knew given enough time that asic will be made. https://web.archive.org/web/20170518222008/https://www.dash.org/x11/  Atm dash has 15ghs miner. They aren't one bit worried about changing the algo to keep it gpu friendly.  The game of gpu fpga asic is really getting old. Almost predictable.  If a guy was smart he would make asic for a coin 1st then sell it as Gpu only. Hehe. I'm sure we already have that going on.  If there is an easier way to make money someone here has definitely found it😉

That is cruel and unfair to people following the rules. Anyways, as far as crypto world is concerned, the expectation of anything fair is itself unfair

What rules are you referring to? No one is breaking any rule or law or anything really. This thread is a bad assumption about things 99.9% of the users here know zilch about.

Bottom line, there owuld be huge headlines if someone had a Ethereum asic... best case scenario there are FPGAs out there but ETH and its like will be GPU coins until the day Homestead is implemented to deprecate it.

Not talking about legality here, just the rules of game called ethereum mining.

That is the point... there are no rules in mining Ethereum that are being broken... some just feel it is unfair because they can't do it. Consider if you had to buy your mining software up front?

$200k a month!!!  Are we sure someone doesn't have a ETH ASIC rig???

The funny thing is the "rules" of ethereum mining are more like "laws" than legal law.

The term you are all looking for is PROTOCOL. Ethereum has a specific protocol for mining with its algorithm. Having a GPU farm, an FPGA or even an ASIC is not cheating or breaking any rule, law or protocol.

If someone does make an ETH ASIC, they won't run very long and ZEC based coins are going to start to get a lot of hashrate.

It's possible that these addresses belong to the huge players in crypromining.
Genesis mining, Hashnest, Nicehash etc... all of these guys could run their ETH rigs over a single worker name

[CryptoCoinsGroup]

this is just another pool suffering downtime pointing all their hashrate to this pool

[bravetheheat]

It is not easy to design ASIC for ETH, but it's possible, I also discuss with other guys for the possibility of ETH ASIC machine. It's possible but may not profitable, I see a lot of rumors for ETH mining machine these days especially when there is difficulty increase, someone jumps out and said "I heard there is ASIC machine for ETH", and then give me the video or picture to prove. ETH is going to POS at any time I guess, which will make mining Machine less possible.
