It looks like mining ETH is currently the most profitable.
100 750Ti could get 1.15 BTC/day.

why are you all counting in 100 or 1000 of 750ti ?

I just use the hashrates of top 10 ETH miners. http://ethpool.org/
edit: I am testing with my poor 6 cards rig.

I had also problems on verters, then switched to solo and then discovered give-me-coins.com(tnx to user phenomenha's tip) and it is just great You get what You deserve and you can calculate the profit aswell with the calculator on the page. You would earn 0.063 BTC/day with 96Mh and the current diff 302.63

You would get 0.25 BTC/day with that equivalent 96MH VTC hashrate for ETH.
I am not sure the exact profit as I am just starting to mine that hot baby.

GETH--

I just started Geth, the wallet, with the Windows batch file.  How can a miner tell when the blockchain is completely in place?  The wallet is console-only.  I have been waiting about 18 hours, watching the text stream by.  Do you have a clue?


--scryptr

check the latest block @ https://etherchain.org/blocks
It took two hours for me.
Then, type          personal.newAccount("yourpassword")           to create your account.

Has anybody figured out how to stop all this text from flowing in the console?
Like I start to type some commands and new blocks/whatever lines start showing up...
I also tried to delete an account (that I created with password "password") and the console says: "deleteAccount is not a function"
I was going per the instructions here: https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/wiki/JavaScript-Console#personaldeleteaccount

NOW MINING ETH--

If I can get the steps straight in my head, I'll write a short tutorial.  My GTX 960 on my Win7 x64 work computer is getting about 10Mh/s, and I am mining solo.

Apparently, if you start Geth with the "console" command only, like the batch file provided in the Cryptomining Blog package, it will stream by fairly verbose information.  Every block found is scrolled across the screen.  So, when I checked the blocks information page, my console was only 1 or 2 blocks ahead of the listed blocks on the web.  I figured my blockchain was complete.

It took some fiddling, but I started solo-ming.  We'll see if 10Mh/s is enough to generate a block.       --scryptr

Lyra2v2 on a 970 is underperforming a 780ti. In every other algo the 970 performs better.

On Nicehash, with --diff 2, hashrate confirmed on the pool, the 970 reaches 8750 while the 780ti
does 9300. Compared to other algos on the 970 I expect to get around 12000 for lyra2v2.

It looks like there may be opportunities for optimization.

Edit: Both cards were stock and default intensity in ccminer. I didn't try to adjust intensity
because the deficit seemed too big to make up with higher intensity.

Edit2: The 970 runs much cooler than usual on lyra2v2 even though the GPU utilization is 99%.
Memory usage is only 37%. The 780ti runs at its usual temperature with identical GPU and mem
usage.

thanks for your words of wisdom but L.O.L.  (and the 980 is doing 12MH/s and my 780ti 10MH/s)

the 780ti is outperforming the 970 not the inverse, more core/larger mem bandwidth
(and for info in prev version the 780ti was faster than the 980...)
actually the 780ti is still faster on lyra2 kernel but lose on pure calculation algo... and for info there aren't using the same
integers types and that's the reason the 780ti is fast, might be something to look at for further optimizing the 780ti on other algo)

edit: that doesn't mean there isn't room for optimization but not on that basis

You can open a second geth via cmd prompt and type:  geth - - attach

This will let you use commands without affecting the: geth - - rpc

Just in case you have not used that. Also not sure how much help you are getting in the other thread.

The Yaamp clones also have a botfree renting service.

Today, the old lyra algorithm is good to mine.

lyra2   4433   2   13   17.4 mh/s   4%   3.1074*   2.0790   2.7733 BTCGHASH/DAy
You could rent hashpower at Nicehash for
Lyra2RE   3342   0.1396 BTCGHASH/Day

No fixed orders for Lyra... I would do it, but I'll be playing footsie with bots all night only to come away with blue balls.
Fuck Nicehash. It'd be great if there was a way you could flag your rigs on Nicehash to ONLY be available for fixed orders.

I managed to place a fixed order with some tricks  


I buy hashpower for 1.4BTC/GHASH ,and sell on the mulitpool for 2.6GMASH. I guess miners are lazy, or they forgot their rig ?

free lunch

Guessing there is some sort of bug in the UI that allows you to place fixed orders when none are available?

I would STRONGLY suggest you NOT mine on ffpool.net  I still have not been paid for 3 days.  Block in Quark and Scrypt are not maturing.  No response from them on their pool thread.

You can open a second geth via cmd prompt and type:  geth - - attach

NOT MUCH--

I mined solo for a while with both the wallet, and the GTX 960.  I stopped the wallet CPU miner, and my GPU miner went from 10Mh/s to 10.5Mh/s.  So, no real need to max out the CPU with 8 threads.

Supposedly, the level of "Verbosity" for Geth can be adjusted, there may be another way.

With ETH coin, the miner finds "Blocks" of 5 coins, or "Uncles" of 4.375 or 3.75 coins (Uncle 0 and Uncle 1).

At 10.5Mh/s, I should be able to receive about 10 coins a week.  If I install the Ethereum packages on Ubuntu, I could mine on the Lan with my Linux boxes.  If I rebuilt my AMD 280x rig, that would be about 6x 24Mh/s, or a total of 150Mh/s (6x280x + 1x960), or a lot of ETH coins.

If you install the ethereum packages, your "qt" gets upgraded to v5.5.  Do you (or anyone else) know if that would affect the compilation of CCminer on Linux?

We'll see.       --scryptr

Ccminer doesn't depend on qt.
Qt is a graphical widget library (and more) while ccminer is for the terminal.
But, many coin wallets have a GUI using qt.

P.S.  CURRENTLY, a miner needs to use the "--diff 2" commandline flag for some pools to give a correct hashrate payout.  This has been repeated several times in this thread.       --scryptr

I try to use --diff 2 but get error, rejected reason: HIGH-HASH
if i take the --diff 2 does not happen, i am using ccminer, tried the djm34 and the last sp's version, both same effect on give-me-coins mining lyra2v2
any idea what could it be?

[bensam1231]

My order has enough bitcoin for 24 hours. (20MHASH of lyra2re fixed.) (costs 0.06BTC)
There is a refill button..
let's see tomorrow if I can gen another free lunch (refill)

ahh is that you who rised the prices? on nicehash )) .some of orders are mine ) 

he-he. just testing the interface.
There is a bot wich takes all the lyra hashrate (860MHASH) I managed to push it up to 3BTC/GHASH by using a few satoshis, and then some of my rigs mined with a higher profit.

I should make a antibot. To make sure that the bot is always paying the maxium rate. More for the miners.

Perhaps the order bot also control the hashrate?

This user is mining at a rate equal to 1106 750ti's

rather around 730 750ti or 1296 i7 4790k

Or like 15,000 infected shitty PCs. Mine bots bots bots bots... ~_~

I have not tried the "Verbosity" but have not looked that far. Just figuring out the "Gas" now.

I like the Uncles and think I found one but did not realize it paid that much. Thought it was way lower than that.

I only have 36 Mh/s on it at the pool but of course the pool reports way lower but still finding a few coins a day. Just trying to get the 750ti's to go right and I will be happy.

Also not sure about any affects for ccminer on Linux.

Good luck. Let me know if I can be of any help but I don't know much.

ETHMINER--

I don't know how it works, but I have been able to mine with it across my lan.  I think if the coders take a look at it, they might pick something up.  The same excutable runs both opencl and Cuda code.  And it runs on my lame rig, so I can keep using ccminer at the moment to bag VTC on my better rigs.

My 750ti cards barely make 1Mh/s each, there is a known problem.  In the past, 750ti cards mined ETH at 8Mh/s, but a coding change crippled their performance.  My 960 cards get 10.5Mh/s.       --scryptr

[bensam1231]

Ethereum has to be one of the most cryptic systems ever for mining and usage. It reminds me of Burst. Almost completely un-intuitive to make it as un-user friendly as possible. I thought Burst was bad, but this takes it to a whole nother level. Like they don't actually want people to use their coin, but it has a fuck ton of market cap. I don't understand it. It's like the abusive G/F that you stick with cause she looks pretty.

I'm following a quick mine guide. It looks like AtherZero is the UI version of the wallet, while Geth is the normal CLI wallet. The AtherZero wallet isn't much help thought, also extremely cryptic. Who the fuck designed the UI for this thing anyway? They just threw boxes everywhere for the sake of having everything on screen.

The whole project is atrocious.

Anybody tried to compile the ethminer with cuda 6.5?

All binaries out  there are 7.5 (some even 7.0) and we know these cuda versions underperform at most algos and moreover maybe 750ti is fixed by compiling with cuda 6.5 as well.
