When you use an api reference tool it gives you all the data available via the api. I was thinking something similar to that, with the sleekness of the tool you have already made.

Ah I see. I'll look into adding something like that in the future. It will be a ways down on the TODO list though.

how does one properly uninstall the app on Mac? can't be as simple as deleting the jnlp

Look under "tools" -> "bitminter client" -> "uninstall" on the website.

BitMinter client version 1.4.3 is out.

Changes from 1.4.2 to 1.4.3:
  • Disabled CPU mining
  • Preliminary support for Big Picture Mining BF1 devices (aka red/blue fury)
  • Untested: add support for Chili devices
  • Improved log messages when probing for external devices
  • Added Application-Name to manifest, to get rid of errors in java console
      when the application starts under the latest Java version.

Blue/red fury support isn't quite right yet. This is mainly a release to get a version out without CPU mining.

If anyone has a Chili ASIC device, please let me know if this version works with it.

Try it out:


If you have issues with 1.4.3 then you can still get the previous release (1.4.2) at https://bitminter.com/client/1.4.2/bitminter.jnlp

Hi,

I updated but both my Jalapenos stopped working with a "ran out of work. Idling..." message.

Restarted with V1.4.2 and both are working again.

Will there be a logfiles on my system I can send to you to help with the debugging?

There's only the log in the window. It is currently not saved anywhere. You can copy paste it in an email and send it to me at operator@bitminter.com

Using a horribly slow CPU miner to mine bitcoins is a very bad idea. I didn't have time to optimize Bitminter client for mining on CPU before CPU mining was already obsolete.

If you insist on CPU mining try a fast CPU miner mining litecoin. I don't know if it will cover the cost of electricity, but it will be a lot better than the first option.

Hi Doc,

Have sent the log (some errors that may be useful!) but all seems fine on the new version (I blame operator error myself!)

Thanks,

Communication errors with BFL units. Not sure why it happens. Someone told me once that replacing the USB cable fixed it for them. Reinstalling the drivers might be worth a shot too.

I have read through all posts for the past 6 months and can't seem to find out the answer to this question:

What is the difference between a round and a shift?

A shift is a set amount of work for the current difficulty. A round is the time and work between finding one block and finding the next one.

I have a question. I have tried the calculators and according to my setup 40 GH/s I should be mining 0.02843656 BTC a day.

Now, if I mine on bitminter with this, what would be my typical daily earnings?

Right now I'm on bitparking and am on the fence, 141 hours on this block alone, granted my estimated payout is 0.04709432, but damn, 141 hours and I don't know when it will end.

I have used slush but kinda the same feelings with bitparking, granted they find blocks quicker but waiting for confirmations to get paid kills me.

What most calculators don't take into account is subtracting pool fee, subtracting donations (if any), adding transaction fee income (if pool pays it), adding merged mining income (if pool pays it). Sometimes all this evens each other out though, and what you make is roughly the same as what the calculator says. Variance will of course make deviations from the expected average income.

At Bitminter you can choose whether to wait for confirmations or not. Default for new users is no waiting, but it requires a perk which again requires donating.

I have Pro Minter Perk activated but don't want some all of the options checked. Pro Minter seems like a more logical choice if you are choosing more than one perk.

With Pro Minter checked, if I uncheck other options, will they indeed be deactivated or does the Pro Minter activate them anyway?

This is what my perks page looks like, are the ones I do not have checked actually deactivated? Easy mode doesn't really seem needed with 40 GH/s with me setting a difficulty of 32.

Pro Minter only makes the other perks free - it doesn't activate them.
