I'm wondering why Equihash has such a high BTC/GH/Day compared to the others?

It's just the nature of the algorithm, if you see your hashrate is only in kH/s while the others are in MH/s so at the end it just evens out.

BTC/GH/Day... so if you have 1 GHS of equihash you would be getting 352.43966 BTC/per Day...
note: 1 sol = 1 hash, 1000hash = 1 khs, 1000khs = 1 mhs,  1000mhs = 1 ghs, 1000ghs = 1 ths, 1000th =1 phs

Announcement Minimum fee change in NPLusMiner and NemosMiner

The minimum fee thresholds of 1 minute in NPlusMiner and NemosMiner are presenting the inconvenient that it penalizes users benefit due to switching but does not really make anything to donations as the miners has really no time to send any shares to pools in such short time.
It is creating kind of a loose / loose situation.

MrPlus and Nemo discussed the situation and took the following decision to try and resolve the matter.

In the next version of both products, the minimum fee time will be set to 3 minutes (0.2%) and the default setting will be 8 minutes (0.5%).
Users will be able to change the value to anything equal or above 3.
If the value is set to anything lower than 3, a value will randomly picked from (0, 3, 4, 5, 6,  7, 8 ) when it starts.

Summary:

	Minimum	Default	Lottery
Current	1 minute	5 minutes	random from 0 to 5
Future	3 minutes	8 minutes	random from 3 to 8 or 0

That makes no change for users already giving 3 or more minutes.
That makes users giving less than 3 minutes give a bit more but the impact on their side will actually be worth something on the other side.

We want to stay completely transparent on the way fees a managed in the product. Below is a explanation of how it functions:
Donations occurs once every 24 hours for the selected amount of time (default 8 minutes). The first donation sequence occurs 1 hour after miners are started. If Interval is set higher than the donation time, the interval will prime.
Example for default parameters. Miners started at 10, First donation cycle runs at 10:52 untill 11, Next donation cycle occurs 24 hours after.

Regards,
MrPlus and Nemo

@L0c0 @minerx117

Thanks for the BTC/GH/Day information!

@MrPlus @minerx117

Fees sound fair to me.  Thanks for all your hard work!

I've done a 24-hour test with these settings (I have 6x1070 GPU Rig) :

https://pasteboard.co/HcJiWo4.png     (BTC Wallet address and MPH name hidden)

The result :

Code:

Blazepoolplus:	0,121	mBTC
Zergpoolplus:	0,178	mBTC
Zpoolplus:	0,011	mBTC
Ahaspoolplus:	0,015	mBTC
Hashref:	0,154	mBTC
MiningPoolHub:	0,044	mBTC
Summary:	0,523	mBTC

(The difference between "total unpaid" on start-up and shutdown.)



If I only mining ETH or ZEC I still have 1 mBTC a day!

[holda29]

My earnings suddenly dropped too. From nearly 2 mBTC/day on Sunday to 0,5 mBTC/day on 8x 1070. The situation is identical on my all rigs, mining on plus pools, mostly zergpool.

My apologies, that did come out wrong, your miner by itself is not unstable, I've used it before without profit switching and it worked great.

What I meant by weak CPUs is that when used it in conjunction with NPM, specifically when using the "plus" option, then there's a problem.  CcminerAlexis78 still has the problem of a long "warmup" time when running more than 3-4 cards, so I'm running 2 copies of NPM, and as much as I like the "plus" option, running 2 instances of that just punishes my CPU (even after the delay increase from 10 to 60s and changing priority to "below normal"), so when HSRminer kicks in while the CPU is already running at 100% causes it to sometimes crash.  I have a friend running the same setup with an i3, he doesn't have this problem.

So just to reiterate, nothing wrong with HSRminer, it is just a casualty of that particular issue, not the cause.  It is indeed faster than KlausT.

No problems man, thank you - you've provided interesting info, I've updated 1st msg of my topic with "Troubleshooting" section to address most common issues.

[Just_a_miner]

Could you at least make a choice where i could choose nhsr miner over klausT.
because nhsr miner was giving me like 5-10% better results with same overclocks and didnt crash at all.

Uncomment line 7 in HSRMiner.ps1

Code:

$Commands = [PSCustomObject]@{
    "neoscrypt" = " -d $SelGPUCC" #NeoScrypt
}

Also comment out in CcminerKlaust.ps1

Yep.
If you don't comment in CcminerKlaust.ps1, NPlusMiner will select the best of the two

MrPlus and Nemo, I'm asking you to change default url for hsrminer_neoscrypt_fork from HP version to normal, as normal process priority version gives only slightly less hashrate than HP version (some users even report same hashrate as hp version) but users will have less chance of experiencing issues with high OC settings in multi-algo enviroment:

Code:

$Path = ".\Bin\NVIDIA-Hsrminer\hsrminer_neoscrypt_fork.exe"
$Uri = "https://github.com/justaminer/hsrm-fork/raw/master/hsrminer_neoscrypt_fork.zip"

Advanced users that know what they are doing can manually change path and url back to _hp after they uncomment line 7 in HSRMiner.ps1.

Also I've added "Troubleshooting" section to the 1st msg of my topic, it addresses common issues.

Got it! Will be fixed in next version: https://github.com/nemosminer/NemosMiner/issues/430

EDIT: Note that this is only a display issue. NPlusMiner still operates properly.

hi

i wrote this on nemosminer thread

i am trying to figure out why nemos 2.4 and 3 and now nplus is doing this, i think i tried everything all those versions hundred bachmarks and profit resets Smiley
as you see on picture the most profitable coin/algo doesn't start , its stuck  but sometimes it does change, i also used old versions but as i remember i didn't have those problems

https://imgur.com/a/75FXb
-----------
and you answered me:

Reduce ActiveMinerGain%
Try with 0, you'll see it switch.
-----

I still have the same problem, it finds most profitable algo and it doesnt switch.
I tried to switch ActiveMinerGain% to 0 , and it doesnt help, i also have switch on autostart. pools i use: on ahash plus, blaze plus, zpool plus.
AM i only one having this trouble with 2.1.1. version ?

i will try it with my new rig 3x gtx 1060, and see if the switching is ok there.

I didn't know you could select more than one pool at a time.  I wonder how you would use MPH with other pools as MPH doesn't use ID= in the worker.  Maybe ID= could be moved to the scripts.

I've been using multiple pools concurrent since Nemos 2.1 something. Currently I'm running AHP, Zpool, Zerg, Blaze, and MPH. Maximum cross-shopping.

With the current versions you input your MPH username in the "MPH UserName" field, and the worker name in the "Worker Name" field.
At MPH site I set the "Hub Workers" default job to the appropriate Nvidia algos. I also use auto-exchange there.

Be mindful of 'abandoned' earnings though.

Next version will strip "ID=" off for MPH and NH.
Should be released by end of week.

Edit:
I'm actually thinking of doing the reverse for user convenience (add "ID=" for yiimp based pool)
Anyone has thoughts on this?

I think in the GUI the user should just enter the worker name without "ID=" and "ID=" be taken care of in the code.  That what you're saying?

That is what I mean.
Might not be in next release but will work on that.

Downloaded NPlusMiner to see what the fuz was all about..

Looks great, but the BTC/D isn't working, so I can't see how much I'm earning.
I'm going to skip for this version.

Which pool(s) are you using?
Is it a supported one for Earning Tracker?

I've had the same problem.  I think it needs to run over 24 hours before you start getting accurate estimates.  One pool didn't start reporting for 8 hours for me, but then started.  MPH doesn't report earnings yet.

Thanks for the info on the trust level.. I'll add to notes.  I plan on making written tutorial.

[jmayniac]

Is there any real difference between the different pools?  Seems like it changes all the time, one week Zpool is the best, then Zergpool, then Ahashpool.  It doesn't seem to matter what pool you choose, they all tend to equal out over time.  Also, it seems as though the PPLNS pools would be the worst since they would penalize you for switching algos all the time.

[JCS-CCT]

I did a search but can't find an explanation of what ActiveMinerGain does and how it works.

Thanks!
