Sorry for the delayed response, it's been an insane couple of weeks since I decided to go "full throttle" and I crashed last night. Woke up 10 hours later on the couch LOL. I can't believe that it all came together between renting space for the rigs, running power and internet, sourcing 60 x 7950 video cards and all the PSUs, motherboards, CPUs, RAM etc. It's been intense.
If I were you I would open up a private p2pool node. You would pay zero fee's and even if other nodes go down yours keep going.
If you like I can set up a private node for you to use based on your geographical location but would charge a 2% fee (maybe more based on your location or generosity) to cover some of the expenses. I would much rather see you bring up your own but understand it may take more time and effort than you would like to devote.
That's very kind of you, and I may take you up on that. The only reason I'm hesitant is that I'm likely to be mining whatever is most profitable (steadily profitable, not something that routinely spikes up and down like SBC) to get the investment paid back, so I wouldn't want to stick either of us with the effort to set up something like that only to switch to another alt a couple of days later.
Why do you not simply solomine with such a huge hashing power? In the long term this is much better for you!
Tried it with one rig and ended up with a lot of rejects simply because the blocks are found so fast at the moment. I still have the daemon set up on what will be the "master rig" though so I may try it once I have all 10 up and running. Even then I would need failover options, so whatever I choose as pool 1, 2, 3 etc in CGMiner would need to be able to handle the influx.
Honestly, if i had that much power i would be doing litecoins.
I love the alt currencies as im devoted to casinocoin, and also own a lot of worldcoin.
With that being said litecoin is stable and you would be able to sell very quick..Making around $350 per day after electricity.
10 days 3 gs etc... one month 9 grand.
The diff is high, but its a secure and quick investment. After that i would then start to mine the alts you could hoard your litecoins and hope for a jump and were talking a lot more then my projections. With so much power the possibilities are endless.. you can mine up to 5 different coins all at once and still be making around the same amount.
Current quick calc using CoinWarz and 36,000KH/s: LTC returns $381.69 per day and CSC returns $634.95 per day. As a backup I'm very partial to WDC and don't quite get the price drops recently. That would return $527.79 per day and has been stable at that level for a few days.
If only GDC was stable at $1,833.93 per day everything would be paid off very quickly
I believe cgminer and bfgminer both offer Pool Management features allowing to specify failover pools. Also, if you mine P2Pool nodes, if one local node goes down and cgminer/bfgminer switches you to another P2Pool node, you keep your PPLNS rate. Someone can correct me if I'm wrong, as I'm fairly new to the earnings distribution in P2Pool.
Definitely something that I will take a look at.
Thanks for all the replies, and sorry again for the slow response.
