I have been seeing on coinwarz and others that BTC mining with Scrypt is giving better profits then BTC mining with SHA-256 is this possible / correct? its been for about a week now

If we find that sending work to miners is the bottleneck, then we would split the servers across the world, but since coin assignment is a serial operation, it would not result in fewer shares
There should be fully standalone regional hubs. These hubs can later synch any needed data with a defined master. Stop thinking with such tunnel visioned architecture planning.
We can’t keep on having the same problems now and again; PH had to take the users seriously- this problem had been hanging for so long and it seems still there is no solution; I appreciate Steve’s communication and updates; but a solution is needed as from yesterday
how could I connect to my miner, and I can’t reset it since I can’t get in to it. The hard reset on the physical miner has a hole. Do I put something in it and hold for like 5 sec to reset?
if you're using WIN-10, press the window key, type in NETWORK, and select the network and sharing center. Click the ETHERNET connection or WIFI on your PC. in the ETHERNET STATUS window that pops up, click DETAILS, all the stuff you need for L3+ setup is in there. mask, gateway, dns.
which works just fine, as long as the miner can see the gateway, and can get outside it will mine, you just cant see it unless you are on the same network as it.
@ stugats2 : not worth to buy for 100 usd. I have some at home but not running. I give them for free if somebody buy an S9 miner or would only ask for usd 20. But not incl. the power cable. This one is quite expensive. But 100 no way.
@jimbo207 i doubt that has any effect at all really. Knowing that the new model will be 2X as fast won't make them cut the current ones by half price. They would still charge full right up until the new 2X fasters come out at the same price point.
In think they cut prices to put Innosilicon out of business ..then they will basically own the market and release a "new better" machine every 6 months to "reclaim" all the crypto we mine with the last machines we bought.
then Innosilicon launces 10k 32gb x11 machine ....Bitmain launches D3 at $2600 for 15gb hash sells out then drops price ....to 1499 and you can buy 90gb hash for 9K ...Inno silicon is gonna go bankrupt
I managed to purchase 3 Nov batch D3’s the other night when they went on sale, wondering if x11 will even pay more than $20 a day by the time I get them.. Seems like profitability on both is dropping like 30% a week. I haven’t been mining long though, has it been dropping like this for a while? Besides coin value, is there anything else that can drive up profitability? Thanks in advance.
The Dominator has been rock solid and problem free .. it looks like the L3+ with only one fan and a seperate controller box. They are all designed to fit more per shelf now ...
D3s will pay alot more than that for a couple months well over $100 a day I suspect ...I have 5 coming in Sept and 2 in Nov so we will see ....Dash calcs show alot more ...but Its best to under estimate and hope the appreciation continues through the over saturation of new hash coming online
everyone has their own approach ...I like to stack some coins and trade for more profits ..or hold for appreciation and sell. I make way more this way . So as long as a machine pays its own overhead im still mining and stacking and trading...
hello. so i am with my miner. when i push the reset button it seems to not reset. how long or how many times do i need to press the reset button, and how long do i wait after i press it
Yeah agreed, thanks for the input. I am long on LTC and really believe it will end up outperforming both BTC and ETH, so even if immediate profitability falls each of those coins I earn will pay dividends.
Part of me wants to cross my fingers and blow 10k on a Sept batch off eBay.. but by the time it covers itself my Nov batch will be here.. Doesn’t make a lot of sense.

@mvcatt : No I was being somewhat sarcastic! I am making 30-35$ with my overclocked L3+ and 10-15% less with a non overclocked one which is still I think 20% more to mining LTC directly
I signed up for the first time today, but I’ve been on 3 hours and it still says "no valid shares yet". Under notifications it says actual is 0.00 MH/s, when it should be 1000 MH/s. I can’t figure out what to do to fix it
