Nope. Been connected since i last updated my settings 6 days ago

mvcatt · · #40574

hmmm yea i dont know why im having issues nothing has changed for me

mvcatt · · #40575

its just odd it will connect to my backup pools

blh1976 · · #40576

usually takes 5-10 minutes after disconnecting to reconnect.

dog1965 · · #40577

@mvcatt :  thats because ph sucks!

mvcatt · · #40578

you have a good alternative?

dog1965 · · #40579

Nicehash or zpool

mvcatt · · #40580

what are the dailies like on there for an l3+

blh1976 · · #40581

zpool and nicehash are my backups

mvcatt · · #40582

ive just had this as primary and lcp as backup since i started liked 2.5 months ago

blh1976 · · #40583

They all differ a little bit. I have the best luck with prohashing

AppleMiner · · #40584

same

AppleMiner · · #40585

If you are into getting a large assortment of coins to move into all your wallets and sit on them, mining dutch is nice also just for that

mvcatt · · #40586

yea ideally id like to keep using this but i just keep getting dead for my status and dont know why

AppleMiner · · #40587

if you dont auto convert them to BTC LTC or BCC or whatever, can just keep the coins and wallet them up

dog1965 · · #40588

waiting

Rexmint · · #40590

@https://forums.prohashing.com/memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=2446 I tried it without the “” but it came back as dead

AppleMiner · · #40591

id like to restart at some point but ive been on the pool for 3 days

dog1965 · · #40592

solo mining cant connect at all lol.

AppleMiner · · #40593

so until the server comes down to fix it, it can stay connected and keep working

AppleMiner · · #40594

would also depend on the coin

AppleMiner · · #40595

which coin cant you conenct in on ?

dog1965 · · #40596

DONT RESTART YOU WILL BE DOOMED!!!!

dog1965 · · #40597

LOL

Rexmint · · #40598

The ETH fork brings zksnarks to ETH which is what gives XMR and ZCash most of their value so I think that among the other updates to ETH is very positive for the price... $400 very soon

AppleMiner · · #40599

most people view hardforks as a negative it may impact the price

AppleMiner · · #40600

ETH believes hard forks are needed to fix mistakes and expand

AppleMiner · · #40601

they hate the soft fork methods that other coins use to fix problems

dog1965 · · #40602

@AppleMiner :  Hogwash.

AppleMiner · · #40603

was what I read

Rexmint · · #40604

Most updates require hard forks

dog1965 · · #40605

@AppleMiner :  oh okay.

AppleMiner · · #40606

etherum takes different approaches than the other coins view forks

dog1965 · · #40607

AppleMiner wrote: etherum takes different approaches than the other coins view forks
they keep asics out of it.

AppleMiner · · #40608

has nothing to do with how its mined.

Rexmint · · #40609

The btc Civil war makes hard fork sound worse than they are but they are required to advance any blockchain

AppleMiner · · #40610

which is why most bugs are software edition changes and not a major revision change

AppleMiner · · #40611

but this ETH setups for double amount of transactions on a block?

dog1965 · · #40612

AppleMiner wrote: which is why most bugs are software edition changes and not a major revision change
yes to profit them not you.

AppleMiner · · #40613

is this part of the expasnion phase?

Thankyou just what I said.
The Bitcoint talk thread related to this store. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2079329.0

AppleMiner · · #40615

doesnt matter they claim to be a reseller and bitmain doesnt support any resellers.

AppleMiner · · #40616

so its a lie right off the bat.

dog1965 · · #40617

@megaquake :  @megaquake :  of coarse the guys a scammer!!!!

AppleMiner · · #40618

Bitmain says right on their website they have no partners, if you arent on their website they arent part of it.

AppleMiner · · #40619

and everyone on here knows it vadi

yes it does!!!

AppleMiner · · #40621

go hit up some random forum that isnt in the know maybe some of them will bite, we have ours.

Rexmint · · #40622

The ETH updates allowsfor a faster network by delaying the ice age which will bring block times back to 14-15s. It’s avg 31s now

Rexmint · · #40623

The ETH block reward is being reduced from 5 to 3

AppleMiner · · #40624

hopefully faster transactions means more value

AppleMiner · · #40625

oh this is a halving also?

AppleMiner · · #40627

thats kinda big

AppleMiner · · #40628

when is the LTC half in july 2018?

Rexmint · · #40629

In a way. Actually more ETH will be created per min after the HF than now. Currently 5*31s is 10eth per min. After HF 3*15s is 12eth per min. Roughly

mvcatt · · #40630

any thoughts on picking up another l3+ from bitmain is it even worth it at this point?

Rexmint · · #40631

But the hf is needed as some blocks are taking 3m to solve,

AppleMiner · · #40632

until the times get back up to 31s in another month

Rexmint · · #40633

No the ice age has been put off for a year

Rexmint · · #40634

ETH miner can expect about 20% more ETH after the hf compared to now despite the block reward reduction

Rexmint · · #40635

I wouldnt buy another l3+ unless I could get in less than a week at 1.5-2k

Rexmint · · #40636

It’s profiability has declined Soooo much

AppleMiner · · #40637

and will do so some more in the next month as more batches roll out.

Rexmint · · #40638

Got 6 ETH Rigs but 30 more GPUS, gonna nuildmore rigs

AppleMiner · · #40639

i didnt like the ROI on the GPU rigs I was looking at.

AppleMiner · · #40640

upwards of a full year?

AppleMiner · · #40641

could build it yourself for half, IF you could find any cards in stock

Rexmint · · #40642

My ETH mining https://ethermine.org/miners/a64345d423 ... 60b177ca7a

mvcatt · · #40643

yea its declined a lot in the time since ive gotten mine ill make some profit but itll take longer probably would have been better of just buying coins

Rexmint · · #40644

Send me your ETH at Rexmint.eth :D lol

Rexmint · · #40645

Yeah I built my own rigs

Rexmint · · #40646

Just got about 30more Rx 570/580s for $230ish

Rexmint · · #40647

When I can’t profitability mine anymore with my ETH/gpu Rigs I can sell the rig/parts and get most of the $ back

Rexmint · · #40648

Can’t do that with this l3+ or any asic

blh1976 · · #40649

whats it cost in electricity to run those rigs?

Rexmint · · #40650

Like how you can get your own name on ETH as an address; for example I got Rexmint.eth and anyone cansend ETH to that (Rexmint.eth) and it goes to any address I want

Rexmint · · #40651

I modded my VBIOS on my amd GPUS so they are undervolted and run faster and cheaper than stock. Each rig is 800-900 Watts

Rexmint · · #40652

My 6th rig I’ve been lazy and haven’t modded the VBIOS yet so it’s slower and more costly, each rig is 6x amd Rx 470/480/570/580 varies models and makes, cards are mixed 4g and 8gb ram

blh1976 · · #40653

am i looking at your stats right.....says about $1450 per month. is that for all 6 rigs or just 1 rig?

AppleMiner · · #40654

6 rigs, 800-900 watts power, about 500-600 a month in electric?

AppleMiner · · #40655

70 X 6 420-500?

AppleMiner · · #40656

guess rex took off

AppleMiner · · #40657

i would bet that is for all 6 rigs

AppleMiner · · #40658

the question is, how much did 6 rigs cost to assemble if after electric its making 1000 a month?

AppleMiner · · #40659

6 X video cards are 250 each, plus mobo/cpu/ram/bootup chip maybe another 250, so...maybe $2000 a rig? times 6 rigs, 12K invested, and at 1K a month profit, 12 months to ROI?

AppleMiner · · #40660

litecoins hit $100 it took me less than 2 months to ROI my L3+

AppleMiner · · #40661

prolly closer to 130-140 if the price keeps going up

AppleMiner · · #40662

rather spend 2K and ROI in 2 months than 12K and ROI in 12 months.

AppleMiner · · #40663

ETH numbers just didnt even compare

AppleMiner · · #40664

but i did check to see if dash or ether were worth a shot at building a rig for them

blh1976 · · #40665

doesn’t seem like a lot of profit.....but who knows what the future holds! never know what is gonna happen

AppleMiner · · #40666

true about any of the coins, the profit returns just seemed a lot longer and lower compared

AppleMiner · · #40667

would have gone D3 if I couldhave gotten one in like august cheap

AppleMiner · · #40668

so went L3 in september
