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

[crypper]

Ok, so I just did check dashboards for the coins I'm mining at the moment and, as was mentioned before, there's a problem with reported hash rates. On the site it says ~55MH/s, but ccminer reports ~70MH/s (the same I had with NiceHash). So which one is correct ?

Same here:
Mining vertcoin only (without autoswitches) with ccminer:
Pool reports ~25% lower hashrate than ccminer on average  (monitored over 3 days).
Average amount of coins mined daily is also ~25% lower than predicted by different calculators (WhatToMine, coinwarz).

What I'm going to do now is to mine Monacoin here on MPH for three days, then on suprnova for 3 days and then I'll compare average hashrates and profits.
I'll report back in a week

Friends, why is my multipoolminer mining ZCoin only for Lyra2re? Why not vertcoin or monacoin? I'm bleeding profits I did benchmarks. Same story on two PCs: one with 1080Ti, one with two 1060 6GBs.

Zcoin uses Lyra2z not Lyra2RE2.

Trying to setup multi-algo .bat file.  The faq says "Actual port numbers are listed on main homepage."   I only see auto-switching ports per-algo (17xxx) and ports for each coin (20xxx) there.  I tried the 17xxx ports and urls on the faq page but get "stratum authentication failed...terminating workio thread" error for all algos in ccminer.  Where are the correct urls and ports?

Replace 17 with 12 if you are doing the hub worker thing:

@MiningPoolHub - I switched a few days ago, since NiceHash scam blowup, and I am very pleased.

One request if possible - can you please switch to a SegWit address when making payments? This way is cheaper and maybe you could reduce the fee from 0.0003 to 0.0001 BTC, it would make a lot of small miners, like me, very very happy.

Thank you! But why does it mine Lyra2z when Lyra2RE2 (VTC) is more profitable? help please...

I can't log in on a pool. The password isn't accepted. Reseting of the password doesn't work.

Hi all,

Very new to MPH. Looks like great pool and great work gone into this site.

Question - how do i see what coin is mined at any point in time? As it switch i can see the miner being used but where can i see what coin is being mined?

Thanks in advance.

Think i found my answer based on the portnumbers and list from main page?

Bad approach. If you want to compare 2 pools, you have to mine in parallel. Otherwise, the results are not comparable as the net difficulty in 4-6 days can be completely different from days 1-3!

You are right, I have not considered difficulty  change.
I'll do next: I'll run two instances of ccminer with 2 GTX 1070 each: 1. MPH, 2. Suprnova
24 h should be enough to make conclusions.

What's the best miner for mining XMR with AMD and with nvidia cards? Thanks

Sure, I'm already running the test. I'll update you tomorrow.
It would be nice if someone else could also run a similar test just to get statistics. As admins mentioned earlier (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=472510.4840), this is a known issue, but some users do not experience it.
I'm using tpruvot ccminer 2.2 and 372.54 nvidia driver. I wonder if it can be miner/driver versions dependent.

What's the best way to find out the overall real profitability? I've been mining MPH with MPM for 6 days now and still struggle to tell what's my profit.

So far, I did 3 approaches:

1. Use EthMonitoring and add all MPH pools, wait a day or two and check. It shows the overall 24h revenue (in real currency, USD/EUR, etc.). This works but shows me quite just about 60% profits compared to the display of MPM/megaminer and Whattomine calc. (Note: if you do autoconvert, be careful because it doesn't consider the exchange, just sums up everything. If converted to currency that is not mined (like ETH for me) it's no prob, just ignore this revenue) 

2. I've made an excel sheet on which i manually log my daily profits from the mined coins dashboard (recent credits per day). It's tedious because you have to go through all the dashboards, and at the same time, browse coinmarketcap for all the exchange rates. But I believe it should give a precise reading. Unfortunately, the calculated revenue is about same as with method #1. about 60% that of the profitability display/theoretic profit 

3. Using the balances page and excel, I can manually sum up all the credited coins, convert to BTC/USD/EUR with Coinmarketcap and log every day at the same time. Should also give an exact reading. I believe through auto exchange, some currency is "lost" in display somehow, but overall (always depending on the fluctuating exchange rates) I get the same as with methods #1 and #2.

So I've been reading the forum and read that there are many complaints. I also checked my displayed hash rates on the dashboards and found that - like for many others - they are always much lower than the readings from the miners. Guess what? ~ 60% is about right. 

So the question for me is: why is it so difficult to get information about ones profit on MPH, is it on purpose? And why are the hashrates and - allegedly - revenues so much lower than what the mining tools say? I really love the concept of MPH but I need these questions resolved.

Quick question on automatic payout thresholds. I see there's an option for multiple addresses, but I'm trying to figure out the correct way to input them.
Is it "address_bitcoinaddressfor1staccount address_bitcoinaddressfor2ndaccount"?

Regarding the pool hash rate:

I've been looking up on google about it and the answer is pool hash rate is the number your miner submitted in that time interval. If your miner found lots of share, hash rate on the dashboard will go up. If it found fewer shares, it will go down.

The number whattomine.com and what your miner report are striaght calculation. With (X) hashrate you'll get (Y) result.
The number on your miner is what your GPU is doing.

For me, sometimes half, sometimes 100% or sometimes even 150% of what my miner says.

Short version

Pool Hashrate = Rate of the shares you found and submitted to the pool.
Miner Hashrate = How good your GPU is doing.
Est. profit on whattomine and MPM = Straight calculation 10x10=100. But it can't tell if you'll find a share or not.

Feel free to correct me if I'm wong.

PS. You can look up on google with "pool hash rate is lower than xxxminer" there's a lot of discussions on this.

Yeah, you can look from the port number. If you're using MPM you can see from its console or log too. It's something like this.

Nice job! Now google: "average"

Bit harsh with the dig at the end; he did a good job and actually highlights a lot of peoples misconceptions.

Long-term losses are another issue and are usually a problem with the miner actually submitting shares and/or invalid ones.

Maybe it's because of me. The PS part might made him think I was being sacrastic. Which was not my intention. I was trying to point what to search in case anyone would like to know more.

English isn't my first language. My apology.
