Non-Script Question. Has anyone tried mining bitcoin cash with an S9. If so, what pool is good

finally

its not possible as bitcoin cash is scrypt mined. S9 is not a scrypt miner, its an sha256

Correct. But my question was if anyone here has a antminer S9 mining bitcoin (just by chance). I am wondering if those have tried mining bitcoin cash and if so what pool. I understand it is a non-script question.

@fire3916 :  you are new, you have no idea what youre talking about, BCH is SHA256. if you dont know what youre talking about, kindly not pretend you do

He made a mistake, let’s be kind

i apologize, im having a bad day. he may have been mistaken, but there is too many new people here spreading incorrect information. they shouldnt be pretending to know what their talking about and telling others the wrong thing, its just going to screw up more people and make more tickets for you to work

Oh my, calm down. I understand BCH is sha256. note my heading, non-script question. I assume some of us L3 users also have S9s. my question is to those people. I understand this is a script/X11 pool and this question is a "Non-script" question. However I will rescind my question as an all exclusive L3 club Ha. It’s ok, I love this forum

maybe nicehash is an option for you ?

but no with bch i`m afraid

Anyone is overclocking a L3+?

Do I want to overclock a piece of equipment that is (a) difficulty to replace, (b) bloody expensive, and (c) currently profitable ? No. No, I do not.

Ive been overclocking the L3+’s since i got them no probs and maximised income early

Thats months problem free getting an avg extra 80 to 100mh per rig

if I solo mine a particular coin, do i get paid out in that coin or does it still get converted to the primary payout coin?

FAQ not clear

you get paid in the coin you solo mine

ok, thanks.

You’re welcome to talk about anything you’d like here, including SHA-256. We want to mine it too someday

@ Advanced1 May I ask, how much do you overclock?

another quick question if I may: If I only get paid for blocks I find, what is ticking up slowly in the "Live Balances" section? Are those profits from merge-mining or something?

overclock to 450 is fine. but you may need to wait it on hot days when it is 80 or above outside.

why I have a forfeith in front of the litcoin address? thanks

i tried to say the same but wouldnt send from my phone

@hashingpro oh god, we are giving all the profit away to complete noobs.

geez am i dreaming or is efficiency like 100%

WHY can’t i solo mine verge?

i been asking several times why i cant solo min einsteinium. no support it seems or bugged. go pps

n=name a=scrypt d=difficulty c=verge

can anyone let me know why there is a forfeit in front my litcoins ? what could i have done wrong?

either its a bug or your miner is unlucky and coins have been returned to the pool, open a ticket to be sure

what you mean by miner is unlucky? i am a little new in mining

@gregorygharding it is still not working lol

is verge in error? check using explorer or coin status chart

if its in error obv you cant mine it

@jtsil :  https://prohashing.com/help.html "Unreasonably low luck and socialized losses"

dont look like it

checking

Verge is in error state

explorer dosnt show it but coin is in error on coin status table

k thanks

E-Mail Chris and he can assist in tuning your miner? do you have Chris email?

open a ticket @ support.prohashing.com

I have been overclocking the L3+, some are better than others

I have one golden child that takes 20% extra with almost no temp rise and negligible HW errors

But I took it back to 12% over for now, will ramp it slowly and look for non linear changes

I also have one L3+ but that seems to be serially unlucky...

yes some are betterthen other...... i mean really....

dotn fckng ssolo mine with one L43 + if ur not fine witrh losing profits every day fr the rest of ur life.

I also have one that can’t take more than about 5-6% before the temps start to run away, even in A/C room

sroy my spelling a bit shit atm...

@mycide depends what you solo mine, I am doing better than the auto swapping pool on my choice last two days

but have more than one, but one would still just do it

unless it is the unlucky one...

@mycide :  dont drink and prohash, lmao

all my workers down, auto fallback to litecoinpool

prohash down

Maybe in order to fix Verge they had to bring it all down as a sacrifice.

@bluelemonadecrypto I have one that’s a trooper and one that’s on its way to Bitmain because two of its boards went to crap (at stock speeds). Seems to be a mixed bag.

been down for me since then too. Popped back to LCP.org for now.

is the server down?

yea this shit is down

boutta roll some prohash

@Damito - when chips are made for general use they often make them and then sort them by testing in comsumer, industrial and military grade depending on how they perform at various temps etc

I suspect for the Antminer chips it is a fail/pass scenario, so by laws of distribution some will be better than others

though would have thought with the number on a hashing card it would all even outt

but there are also how ell any heatsinking is done to be considered

The server dropped?

sure looks that way

cashout

should i manually set the difficulty on my l3, and if so what should i set it too

typical L3+ earning today?

for L3+ set d=131072 or now they have changed the way it kicks off miners out of difficulty range you will find the autoadapt kicks you out at times, depending on coin

$USD40 per L3+, but you got to do a few things to them and how you mine, LSP currently paying $23 per day per standard L3+

sorry that wast litecoinpool.org calc shows $24 a day per L3+

24 hours 0.33289102 LTC 23.33 USD - LCP

@bluelemonadecrypto :  you are saying setting d=131072 is making 40$ perday?

not just that, but that is one thing

and probably overclocking?

not a lot, 4-10% a unit depending on how they respond

got one that seems able to do 20% over with little impact to temps and HW errors, but it does not seem right so running that one at 10% while I observe and decide

cool thanks my units are already overclocked I will try setting d=131072

what other settings do you suggest for l3? other than d=1310173

and oc 4 -10

do you guys all overclock? doesn’t it void the warranty?

@rsup-it does void the warranty but life in general is about taking a risk

I assume they accepted that the warranty is gone; maybe they make more; when one machine break they buy another one.

One question I have; the overclocking with 4-10%; what do u mean- is it 4-10% from the accepted 384M

@ GregoryGHarding : Greg, I have a question: Why are you showing your hashflare.io sheet? I am sure you know that they changed overnight their contract specification (of course all legal) to 1 year? And they are making adds in nearly all faucets. This is usually not a good sign. So I would take much care in investing their. I am invested since years and made thousands with them. But something seems to go wrong their. But this is just a feeling of past experiences with Cloudmining. At the moment Genesis made also a statement they would not change their contracts.

yes mine is around 12% but I have good ventilation and AC and the has already paid for itself(i got it back when it was 1400$)

last 12hrs of minig are a joke, sometimes no shares or just stales or even pool dead...
