[ANN][POOL] Mining Pool Hub - Multipool. Multialgo, Auto Exchange to any coin.

[MHB]

Hi, I recently switched from NH and had some questions about Zcoin pool mining using my GTX 1070 with the miner listed by MPH (cc-djm):

1. Which server address should be used and why are there differences? Lyra2z.miningpoolhub... or zcoin.miningpoolh...

2. On the Zcoin Dashboard, I can see the Recent Credits for the past few days.
On 2017-12-08 it was noticeably lower, at about 1020AM UTC, I stopped receiving shares. At about 1220PM I received the email "no shares from worker in 10min". I logged in via TV and it was running as expected. But the shares only resumed at about 0930PM UTC.

How can I debug this? My Monero miner was still going strong, so it cannot be the network connection.

According to whattomine, with my rig I should getting 4.7418 VTC a day but the best I did is 2.84989422.
I have 375.91 MH, but on miningpoolhub dashboard best i get is 226MH.
there's some problem obvious, i guess I will be forced to switch to suprnova

VTC is one of the shittiest coin to mine. Difficulty  variations and the p2pool system suck big time.

Can you elaborate on that? I mean everyone has to deal with those.

Hello.
I am trying to use profit switching.
I selected the following profile in "Hub workers":
NVIDIA - Cryptonight, Equihash, Groestl, Lyra2RE2, Myriad-Groestl, NeoScrypt, Skein
Even if Vertcoin looks the more profitable, under "auto switches" it mines BTG, so the profit switching helper starts the equihash miner.
I am missing something, but I can't find it.

Here is the problem I'm having with the multipoolminer. It's launching ccminer_cuda9 and I'm not sure if it's working with my gpu...

Delete it from the folder called 'miners' and/or add an alternative.

Trouble is that it doesn't fail gracefully and just spews out a hash rate reading. People need to get on to the developer so that it fails properly or fix the issue.

I tried, it keeps redownloading it... took it off from miners and bin folders.

I think this was a pool issue last night, since my 24h profitability is about half of what I was expecting. There were some website issues last night, and a database issue as well that resulted in shares not being credited.

Lets see if it continues happening, or if the pool operator finds and fixes an issue.

I'm getting the impression that the auto switches are not just controlled by profitability, since my miner is also mining equihash (BTG) right now instead of Lyra2RE2(Vertcoin). Its likely that since there are multiple switches, only some of them are switched in situations where two algos have a very similar profitability. Switching everything at once would have such a large difficulty impact on the target networks that they would very quickly become less profitable, and end up switching endlessly back and forth between them.

can you also add in GBX or neoscrypt algo?

Vote for more neoscrypt coins also.

Hi everybody. Need your advice.
I have a question. Just started mining BTG.
How long i need til credit will be confirmed. and then, how long til them will be auto-exchanged to monero?

wow pool got too busy too quick.

To answer your question BTG has a very long confirmation time. roughly 16 hrs if i remember right. This is not pools choice but by design in BTG coin. After it is confirmed usually gets sent within 30 mins if there are enough coins. after that traded as soon as possible if there are enough coins. It really depends on the network.

For those who are new to MPH. Operator is usually operating mostly by himself and has been swamped with his to do list. I believe hes currently working on ETN and a few equihash coins. Decred and library was also thrown in but im sure its not a priority atm. This pool has an honest operator but can be a little slow adding features. He focuses on maintenance and troubleshooting and has less time to add features. He will get there... Eventually.

pool does not check whattomine for stats. it has its own profit calculation based on its current performance. It includes pool luck and might actually be more accurate as whattomine cant really factor pool luck. I dont know if you did but for the information of the others you must also pick the rifht settings location in the hub workers page for coins that you included. Also pool factors luck but it uses a more general approach for hash rate calculations. For nvdia i think its based mostly on the 1070 card and for AMD the 470 4gb. For ether it still uses 25 hashes per sec i think. So there will be slight miscalculations. Operator promised to make a more customizable setup later on but that might be a long long time to come...

Can anyone help me add Ethash to MultiPoolMiner? Whenever it starts to benchmark with excavator it just makes the rig SUPER slow and then hard locks it. :/

Maybe too many threads...

Remove Excavator3.ps1 and just use Excavator2.ps1 (you could make your own Excavator1).

[SuperDerpBro]

Will that effect other algos? Excavator is the tops for some (None ETH) right now.

Thank you.
If you check MPH home page, you will find "coin mining status and profits sorted for nvidia" (for example).
That list should match the result of MPH profit switching system, but it isn't so, even if it matches whattomine order.

No prob, I configured VTC/MONA/BTG/XZC miningpoolhub pools as a pool group in awesomeminer: now awesomeminer is correctly switching the right pool, according to current most profitable coin.
Fixed. :-)

Any of the files in the folder called 'miners' can be edited/removed.

I am mining vertcoin and i have 31 mh/s but on website it shows 15mh/s and highest it shows 26mh/s.
I am not submitting any bad share so why does it not show actual hashrate? Also vertcoin mining takes long time to show any info. Anyone can help?

I had this problem with older versions of ccminer. I recently switched to v2.2.3.

https://github.com/tpruvot/ccminer/releases

The program reports a lower hashrate than other versions of ccminer, but the pool reports a much higher one. Keep in mind pool reported hashrate varies and can take a long time to show changes. But with the newer miner it actually reports the correct hashrate once in awhile. Not always half or less.

Your welcome. btw additional info since it is pplns it wont switch until block is found. But yah awesome miner seems nice but i dont have that much rig and dont really wanna pay up front. Id rather donate 1% of my profits.hahaha

Yes, I am aware about PPLNS, it's a risk.
I will need some live tests.  :-)

hahaha let me know how it goes. im interested in your results. been to busy to play profit switch. maybe this dec ill finally get it back up again.

Yes, but excavator3 is the best one for other alorythms (And works fine for them) :/

Anyways, i tried it and the other ones worked fine. Until ExcavatorNvidia3.. take that out as well? What is the diff between 2 and 3?
