i just hate it when i see i am mining litecoins. if i wanted that id go to LCP. thats the part i dont get, no better coins for the pool to mine than that?
ok i was looking at something maybe someone can explain this. When we connect to the autopool, we hope around from 1 coin to another but the miner doesnt restart. when i want to mine a specific coin I add the static line and then it has to restart and takes 1 or 2 mins to reconnect.
is there a program i can point the miner to the program and have it switch the settings for me from 1 coin to another without a restart the way the pool does it?
then how does the pool switch coins we are on around after the fact? or is there that same 1-2 min delay each switch as part of the calculating hashrate that there is when setting a coin and hitting apply?
ok thanks. I see all those big value coins and we never switch to mine them, be nice to pick them, but if each restart takes 2 mins to reconnect, not sure its worth it to chase the high coins if not mining for 2 mins each time.

Why is my electric cost so off on my "earnings" page? Am I entering something wrong? My l3+ uses 800 W and I pay $.12 per kWh but it saying I only spent $.11 on electric today
Very strange, one miner moving between coins which seems to be the most profitable, and the other 3 stuck with litecoin, one of them have dynamic diff and it is mining litecoin anyway
@Maxiimos the only problem with that explanation is that explains what the "custom" option does but it does not (unless i’m misunderstanding something) explain what the "confirmation time target" slider does to your fee, that slider is for the "recommended" section but does not change the 0.001 LTC/kB. In other words, i don’t know how that slider affects the fee, how to calculate it, etc. as it does not say.
Anyone have a link to help a novice who’s never used api to quickly get up to speed to automatically download the data I need for accounting via api (coin mined, qty, value, etc)?

Thanks Steve. I appreciate how easy you have made it on your sight to get to critical info. I think you guys have done a great job. However, I think on the api question I posed, you may have overestimated what the term "novice" means. I read through that stuff already & I’ve still no clue how to get from here to there. I haven’t programmed anything in over 17 years. I’m a little lost, truthfully.
I just want to pull raw data into MS Excel & work with it from there. Can someone give me an example of the URL that pulls data from prohashing’s api. Maybe I could work from there.
When plugging the url into Excel, I get: ""The scheme ’wss’ of the input URL isn’t supported. The supported schemes are ’http’, ’https’, ’file’, and ’ftp’.""
Okay thats exactly what im getting, ill get notifications that it fell to zero but i assume thats when im switching coins and i have no arguments set atm
