I can’t speak on the X11 profitability (it’s much less right now 1.59c vs 10c for scrypt) - but this pool is great when it’s working ;P

Gr33k · · #13027

if all goes well - I hope to throw maybe 10 L3+’s on this pool :D

agapes · · #13028

yes i like to buy one l3 but is expensive and i cant install it at home

agapes · · #13029

because of noise , so i have to use baikal for now

Gr33k · · #13030

I wish I got a baikal when it was affordable. Their Giant 2000 Mh/s @ $7000 USD is overpriced

Gr33k · · #13031

D3 sounds great but it sold out in a flash lol

agapes · · #13032

i know i got baikal cube 2500

agapes · · #13033

a lot more than original price

Gr33k · · #13034

(I also hear it’s not multi-algo just x11...which is fine with me)

Gr33k · · #13035

iBeLink hasn’t been the best and the Innosilicon was posted in Chinese only....more than 7k and might just be vaporware to counter Bitmain’s D3 release (I heard...but not sure)

Gr33k · · #13036

2500 for which cube the 300Mh/s or the quad?

agapes · · #13037

no normal cube 300mh

agapes · · #13038

quad is about 7k-8k

Gr33k · · #13039

yeah if you didn’t buy direct. The 300 was $800 direct if I recall...sold out and people resold for 2500+

Gr33k · · #13040

the quad was $1200 or $1300 direct - sold out and people reselling for ungodly prices - then baikal saw this and boosted the price of the giant

Gr33k · · #13041

i trolled them via email saying "Good luck selling that" - They flat out said ROI in 6 months for it was good nuff - I think not...With the D3 out (regardless if it’s multi-algo) at $2700 last price and 15GH/s....

agapes · · #13042

is good and bad, good thing is less people mining and diff not going high

agapes · · #13043

bad thing is price

Gr33k · · #13044

wait till the next batch of D3’s......

Gr33k · · #13045

if they unload those like the L3+ the diff will skyrocket

Gr33k · · #13046

i have 1 on July 20th batch and 9 more coming Aug 15th batch

Gr33k · · #13047

wish i could buy more.... lol

agapes · · #13048

:(

Gr33k · · #13049

the caculators were REALLY nice 2 months ago when i purchased - about half now

Gr33k · · #13050

expected drop but gawd dayum.... LoL - Regardless still worth it...but damn ya know ;p

agapes · · #13051

yes

agapes · · #13052

powerfull device is noisy

Gr33k · · #13053

hey you can always mine the other algos - I haven’t done the math on those - That was one of baikals replies to me - Check profits on the other algos.. (which I honestly haven’t)

agapes · · #13054

cant install at home

Gr33k · · #13055

yeah my wife was going to kill me so I rented a cheap space to set them up in

agapes · · #13056

yes man same for me

Gr33k · · #13057

i built 2 6 gpu (12 total) rigs for eth and that price tanked lol

Gr33k · · #13058

but i still keep mining cuz it’ll go back up - Mixing it up grabbing some ETC right now

agapes · · #13059

realy? you minig gpu too

Gr33k · · #13060

yeah i just wanted to build 2 rigs - did it before the prices skyrocketed ($230 per Asus RX580 8GB)

agapes · · #13061

man goto zpool

Gr33k · · #13062

not too bad got 6 eth so far and dual mined 10k Siacoin 8 Pascal and 1 Decred or so

agapes · · #13063

download nemosminer latest ver 2.0.9

agapes · · #13064

one algorotym add today skunk

Gr33k · · #13065

i running them on EthOS

agapes · · #13066

the profit is too high

agapes · · #13067

0.0188 btc/day

Gr33k · · #13068

skunk eh?

agapes · · #13069

yes

agapes · · #13070

the algorythm added last night

agapes · · #13071

is crazy now

agapes · · #13072

i mining 10min with one gpu 1080ti 0.55c

Gr33k · · #13073

damn it’s nvidia and windows lol i have linux and amd

agapes · · #13074

find a way to mining that is ccminer

Gr33k · · #13075

hmmm I have a windows rig mining nil of ZCash right now I might just give that a try (GTX 970 only)

Gr33k · · #13076

you use zpool for anything else?

agapes · · #13077

i used for baikal a day is ok

Gr33k · · #13078

i was checking them out on bitcointalk but i liked prohashing more (When it works) haha

agapes · · #13079

zpool does not have fee

agapes · · #13080

so is good for mining

agapes · · #13081

but right no i set my gpu on it in last hour didnt switch from skunk because the profit is too high

agapes · · #13082

have you try nicehash with l3+

agapes · · #13083

it said $40+ a day

Gr33k · · #13084

nah - I’ve actually never tried them on anything. I got over $50 with prohashing though my first day

Gr33k · · #13085

does nicehash let you payout in LTC?

agapes · · #13086

no just btc

Gr33k · · #13087

ah i mean i have nothing against BTC - I just looking for LTC to go up a lot more hehe

agapes · · #13088

search on google nicehash calulator and set your device there you can see the profit

Gr33k · · #13089

it’s more like $34/35 on litecoinpool .77ish LTC so here is pretty much the best I’ve been able to find so far

Gr33k · · #13090

bummed they been getting DDoSed and the recent issues...I’m impressed with all this site does

Gr33k · · #13091

I like that it pays you out in any coins too - Even ETH apparnetly lol

Gr33k · · #13092

oh and zpool appears to charge a modest 2% fee on most of it’s pools it seems

agapes · · #13093

just pool not for payout

Gr33k · · #13094

i mean it’s not too bad

Gr33k · · #13095

stuff looks like it’s back up and running now - did we loose out on any shares though I wonder...it seems like there were some gaps but I’m not 100% sure :(

Steve, are you going to implement the idea of very low diff charged a higher rate as a temporary fix?

FRISKIE · · #13100

Posted that before reading the update - disregard please :)

mickeekung · · #13101

Where is Joetheminer? I didn't see him for a while.

mickeekung · · #13102

I can't find Intel PRO 960. I can find only samsung ssd 960 pro.

FRISKIE · · #13103

Results of my past couple of hours testing: Improvements="during the higher profit moments and NH bots switch on etc. - the pool doesn’t die, the shares don’t fall nearly so far behind, and rejects don’t climb to 100%.

FRISKIE · · #13104

The stales/reject shares still rise high enough to pretty much wipe out profit, but on the overall the pool is much improved in my opinion.

FRISKIE · · #13105

I should add that this is using an NH order at 2GHs and static diff of 65K for the testing.

mickeekung · · #13106

Yeah I agree that share stale just raise up

FRISKIE · · #13107

Any results from HW miners since Steve announced the latest changes?

FRISKIE · · #13108

Yeah I agree that share stale just raise up
Right, the pool is still not very useful for us NH miners just yet, am interested in some HW miner feedback as well

FRISKIE · · #13109

Am not yet through with that evaluation though, need to let the order run through and see how it all averages out, could be that NH orders are actually profitable (at a reduced rate though)

n00bminer · · #13110

well, it kills old asics for this pool. The pool’s software is not routing low hash, old miners to the small/profitable coins like it should. However, you USED to be able to point a small miner at say "ILoveYouCoin" at 1.4mh/s and make it profitable for the pool without killing the wallet daemon. Not anymore, at 4096 the 1.4mh/s device just sits idle

FRISKIE · · #13111

Hopefully this setting won’t be needed for long

GregoryGHarding · · #13112

until the new release comes, their giving the finger to small miners, pack up and go to litecoinpool or another multicoin pool until then

FRISKIE · · #13113

It’s not helpful to refer to a tough performance improving decision as "giving the finger" mate. Temporary measures must be implemented - or no one at all can mine, as in past weeks.

GregoryGHarding · · #13114

there were easier decisions what wouldnt require small miners to pack up and g elsewhere

GregoryGHarding · · #13115

they decided to take the hard route

GregoryGHarding · · #13116

and strip more from the small guys that can hash at that diff, and less from the big guys

FRISKIE · · #13117

As in the whole BTC scaling debate and anywhere else you get differing opinions about the solutions, the worst thing to do is "nothing at all" :)

GregoryGHarding · · #13118

and completly make anyone that cant hash that diff locked out

FRISKIE · · #13119

Is the pool improved? YES. Enough said, the setting change was effective.

FRISKIE · · #13120

The time for arguing such things is BEFORE they are implemented mate.

GregoryGHarding · · #13121

when measureing business effectiveness you must take into account customer service and service itselfnot just one or the other

FRISKIE · · #13122

God knows I’ve written volumes ont hat topic :)

FRISKIE · · #13123

I’d propose right now though to support the decision that was taken, understanding some of us are still impacted (NH, small miners, probably some others) but some were lucky and will have found thnigs improved.

FRISKIE · · #13124

Actually though I’m checking figures out now and it seems that even NH orders are profitable in spite of occasional patches of rejects

mjgraham · · #13125

i think if people need a lower diff there should be an exception that they could send a ticket for and if they see someone with an exception submitting 500 shares a second then smack them , I know I have been partially guilty of this but not lower than 8k, i almost dont see looking at my data most of the time the share delay seems to happen just randomly but not all the time
