Please describe your problem in a way that people can understand. By the way, the use of punctuation and grammar helps a lot to make your writing understandable...

so is xpm being pool mined/bot mined now

no solo's anymore ?

I barely broke even yesterday with 50 vps, but the day before was a good one...
Hard to tell with such a variance, mining is really a lottery !

What are you using? ... AWS High-CPU On-Demand Instances / Medium @ $0.145 per Hour
Quite expensive!

[Tamis]

No, this is not what i'm using...
The fact is VPS mining seems to be nearing an end at this difficulty.

I run $20/mo Linode instances.  They end up coming out to $0.02737/hr for an 8-core system.
As long as each box mines ~3 blocks in 30 days, I'm golden.

Not bad ... 8 cores (1 prio) ... could you please paste the output of

Code:

cat /proc/cpuinfo

Just wanted to know what processors are behind this.

Thx

I have a couple of linodes as well, but they are very spread in performance. They average at about 5 cores (you only get garanteed 1 core), that perform at about half a xeon each. My 4 core ramnode performed way better (except you can't run structural CPU usage there). If I take the average in performance decline over the last weeks, I seriously doubt one should get one for xpm mining alone. You might get lucky and get a block a week, but it might just as well cost you.

Yeah it is getting towards the end for me too. You can still make money but it is way to hit and miss (has been for quite some time really). Yesterday double, today likely a small loss.

I've found that if you get a node with crap performance, you can destroy the node, get your account credited, then rebuild the node elsewhere.  In all, it costs ~$0.65 to destroy and rebuild, but getting 35% more performance is worth it.

Not bad at all ... the CPU is at least quite recent and it has loads of cache available, you should get around ~1.3 chains per day.

You'd think so.  As pointed out previously, the chains/day stat is for finding a chain with length equal to the integer part of the difficulty.  It'll be less than that once you take into consideration the fractional part.  (Please correct me if I'm wrong)

I do average about 0.90 to 1.00 chains/day metric on each of the nodes though.  Even if it's less than half of what's reported, as long as I hit ~2 blocks on each node, they pay for themselves.


As a side note, don't count on being able to use the CPU cache to full efficiency.  It is shared hardware after all.

[gigawatt]

A question for Sunny King or Mikaelh:

Does the round primorial have a direct or inverse affect on the likely length of a prime chain?
For example: will a larger round primorial result (on average) in longer or shorter prime chains?

The XPM is rising hard today

Probably due to less mining return !

DO only cost me money... never made an xpm on it, never tried to much either.
5 droplets is a joke with the cpu they offer !

Was having the same issue with droplets, you wont make a penny on them anymore. I shared a post of a new VPS I am using now that is still on good earnings. With 1.6 chains a day it will even cover the time it costs: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=272755.0

I was getting somewhere between 0.1 and 0.2 chains on DO, so the difference is huge.

Got myself a 20€/month dedicated server (not a wimpy virtual machine), already worth it. And I didn't get it for mining either, so doubly worth it?

A dedicated server for 20€ sounds nice for any purpose, might I ask where?

However I think their new policy is against resellers now, so it's likely going to be limited by where you live. Maybe
