Obviously these settings do cause a bit of rise in the stale shares, but I’ve found that if you can suppress the fast coin switching enough to not pay a lot of "extra rewards" (Nicehash penalties) while still allowing a reasonable level of coin switching, those moments of increased profitability do outweigh the lost profits from stale shares.

@ Steve/Chris - do you guys have a task that triggers at 06:00 EST on the mining server? I’ve noticed that any time I’m unlucky enough to be mining at that time there is a sharp rise in stale and rejected shares at that time.

@ Steve/Chris - do you guys have a task that triggers at 06:00 EST on the mining server? I’ve noticed that any time I’m unlucky enough to be mining at that time there is a sharp rise in stale and rejected shares at that time.I neglected to mention that the disruption lasts for about 10 minutes. Please check if you have a task(s) that trigger at that time and potentially overload the mining server while they execute.

Did anyone try a=11 d=0.1 h=1000 g=off for X11 yet?
tmopar · · #3974
Theres another problem im sorry to say... its not a bad one I guess but if you set a payout threshold higher for bitcoin it will work (I did so last week to .10) and it paid out after it hit .10 just like I expected... I raised my LTC to 4 minimum payout and last night and tonight I got a few LTC and no 4 coin single payment, I dont think its working for litecoin for some reason or maybe its the amount I put in. Can anyone else confirm this behavior with other payout coins?

n00bminer · · #3980
thank you!
n00bminer · · #3981
set them to 512 to test, had at 1024, then 2048, let the pool decide (jumped to 8192)
tmopar · · #3982
you make more per share at the higher diffs
tmopar · · #3983
you only loose out if you set a diff too slow to get any shares between coin switches
tmopar · · #3984
512 is the slowest, for your piece and i own several, I would recommend a 4096 or 2048 diff
GregoryGHarding · · #3985
how do i set static diff on x11

so the blocks found section... do you get extra for finding a block?
Steve Sokolowski · · #3989
web3 wrote: so the blocks found section... do you get extra for finding a block?Only if you are solo mining. In pay-per-share mining, you give up the bonus for finding a block in exchange for consistent profit.

so do i just pass the M argument
Steve Sokolowski · · #3993
web3 wrote: so do i just pass the M argumentIf you want to do solo mining, then yes, you can use m=solo. But solo mining will never be as profitable as automatic coin switching. Use solo mining if you want to try to play the lottery to get lucky or to support a particular coin network.

Steve what diff do you suggest for A2’s for most profit

Do you have an L3+?
UPSoft · · #3997
@Steve Sokolowski i have 9xL3+ and use "a=scrypt n=worker1" is that ok or i can go better?

btw still no payout today... strange
web3 · · #4003
if i want to mine solo how can i specify this with my mining software... i cant seem to get anything to work
n00bminer · · #4004
m=solo doesn’t work?
web3 · · #4005
okay so you cannot use solo mode then?
n00bminer · · #4006
no I was asking
n00bminer · · #4007
I would specify coin and m=solo
web3 · · #4008
i’m trying to use ccminer-x64 on windows and i cannot seem to get the argument to work
n00bminer · · #4009
are they in quotes? "m=solo a=scrypt d=512" etc
web3 · · #4010
hold on this is what i have
web3 · · #4011
ccminer-x64.exe -a x11 -o stratum+tcp://prohashing.com:3333 -u wbullockiii -p a=x11 m=solo
web3 · · #4012
I’ve also tried this way to
web3 · · #4013
ccminer-x64.exe -a x11 -o stratum+tcp://prohashing.com:3333 -u wbullockiii -p a=x11 -m=solo
n00bminer · · #4014
try this ccminer-x64.exe -a x11 -o stratum+tcp://prohashing.com:3333 -u wbullockiii -p "a=x11 m=solo"
web3 · · #4015
okay
web3 · · #4016
just sec
web3 · · #4017
okay seemed to have taken the argument but in my miner it still shows pay per share mode
n00bminer · · #4018
how about on the webpage? the miner may not understand since you are connected to a stratum
web3 · · #4019
hmmm weird
web3 · · #4020
i wonder if i need to use the coin option too
n00bminer · · #4021
once it calculates the hashrate, check the miner stats on the earnings page
n00bminer · · #4022
mine says mode: pay per share. yours should say solo
web3 · · #4023
yeah i’m waiting for it to finish calculating
web3 · · #4024
from the help page: The "c=" parameter must be present to use "m=solo." If c= is not present or if the specified coin does not exist, then this argument will be ignored.
n00bminer · · #4025
you may be better off adding a coin parameter as solo, probably have more luck, but I do not really know
web3 · · #4026
yeah that’s what i’m thinking
n00bminer · · #4027
looks like you need to pick a coin
web3 · · #4028
okay i just set one we shall see
n00bminer · · #4029
which one did you choose?
web3 · · #4030
CryptoClubcoin
web3 · · #4031
honestly not sure which one to choose
n00bminer · · #4032
looking at coinmarketcap, diginote has the 197% increase in price, probably going nuts
web3 · · #4033
is the difficulty listed on prohashing?

oh shit dude i think i just solved 4 blocks!!!

yes they have to mature

Steve Sokolowski · · #4053
an x11 difficulty of 512 is a ridiculous value - try dividing it by 2^16
GregoryGHarding · · #4054
il try tht, i just figured based on documents in help the server would adjust automatically for x11
GregoryGHarding · · #4055
with my math 512 is equal to 0.0078 on X11. whats the lower limit for x11 diff or is that it
GregoryGHarding · · #4056
final verdict, lowest scrypt static diff (d=512) for X11 Lowest statif Diff (d=0.008)

Anyone had any luck CPU mining here? (I know, profitability etc...)
GregoryGHarding · · #4060
you can do it.. its gonna cost you more on electricity then you'll make. but if your going to cpu mine mine on x11 algo
JKDReaper · · #4061
Ya ive found a few ways to make profit (albeit tiny) on other pools, but i cant get any of my cpu mining software to connect here. Get a Stratum Authentication error...using same arguements, un, etc...as on rentals
