dopatrick · · #45749

please help

MojitosMoProblems · · #45750

what’s the issue?

dopatrick · · #45751

i have a antminer D3. the prohashing site doesnt clearly stat what to input in the miner config tab under URL,Worker,Password?

dopatrick · · #45752

im new

MojitosMoProblems · · #45753

did you try the help section? https://prohashing.com/help.html

dopatrick · · #45754

yes. still nothing clear on what to enter where on this miner

centar · · #45755

URL is the stratum server: stratum+tcp://prohashing.com:3333

centar · · #45756

worker is your username for the site

centar · · #45757

password leave blank unless you understand password arguments and need to make changes

dopatrick · · #45758

im mining with a d3

dopatrick · · #45759

x11

mck · · #45760

when mining x11 algorithm, you should also put a=x11 in the password field

dopatrick · · #45761

ok, i have entered stratum+tcp://prohashing.com3333 in the URL field

dopatrick · · #45762

My user name for prohashing in the Worker field

dopatrick · · #45763

Password a=x11

dopatrick · · #45764

but nothing is working, machine isnt even showing a hashrate

mck · · #45765

prohashing.com:3333

mck · · #45766

and then you hit Save & Apply. What do you see when you check Miner Status a few mins later? Prohashing dead or alive?

dopatrick · · #45767

shows nothing under miner status

dopatrick · · #45768

doesnt even show the pool

dopatrick · · #45769

ok now it says prohashing alive. pumping out 17,535.37 MH

mck · · #45770

when you put also n=something in the password field, you see ’something’ instead of random characters under Live worker status

mck · · #45771

to distinguish between miners, if you connect multiple machines

dopatrick · · #45772

ok i see, thanks

Paul_sq · · #45773

D3’s today it’s official make $0

mck · · #45774

you mean: earnings minus electricity = 0

Paul_sq · · #45775

that’s correct they make $0

mck · · #45776

I still need to receive my Glorified Heater... :(

Paul_sq · · #45777

oh dear

Paul_sq · · #45778

Believe or not I just sold one on ebay.

Paul_sq · · #45779

I have no doubt in my mind the guy will want his money back

mck · · #45780

ordered it when it earned $150/day, will receive it when it burns $6.70/day (energy price for D3/day here)

Paul_sq · · #45781

ouch. mine are $2.21 each

memomix · · #45782

should I add #nsub for x11? What is the different?

AppleMiner · · #45783

does your miner support @nsub?

Minermoe · · #45784

700 machines must have been delivered today, as the workers increased by a lot, bye bye a chance of ROI on L3+. We should all go to Bitmain head quarters and pour lots of water on their rigs lol. I can’t afford a plane ticket there unfortunately. Haha jk

ZiGen · · #45785

ZiGen · · #45786

Add /xnsub ...

ZiGen · · #45787

"extra nonce submit" ...read help or google it

ZiGen · · #45788

extra nonce submit = extra nonce subscription ...sorry

AppleMiner · · #45789

@Minermoe :  Is your L3+ not making 10 LTCs a month? at $50 each, thats $500 a month, you mean in 3 months you wont have ROI?

AppleMiner · · #45790

and the water you want to pour on those rigs, are the ones they shipped out to you a few weeks ago, all you would have done is ruin the machine you got sent.

ZiGen · · #45791

Apple Minermoe is a newbee... doesn’t have a skin of a seasonal miner ... after 1-2 months - specially here - he will have a much thicker skin... :lol:

AppleMiner · · #45792

the newness wears off pretty fast 8)

ZiGen · · #45793

Current income is ~0.25 LTC per L3+, here maybe a little more (?) ...so like 8 LTC a month ...x $50 = $400 ... I paid like 45 LTC for mi miner including PSU and shipping ... 45 / 8 = 5.5 months ROI ...eventually ;)

ZiGen · · #45794

mi=my

AppleMiner · · #45795

think i paid 40 ltcs for my miners, so really, 4 months should = ROI for them.

AppleMiner · · #45796

but the LTCs I think were only at 42-44$ at the time, since they are a bit more...coin wise may take 4 months, $ wise should be a bet less to make it up.

ZiGen · · #45797

agree ...I am trying to avoid the price fluctuation in ROI

Minermoe · · #45798

I paid $13k CAD plus $1420.00 CAD in custom fees. My ROI should be in aprox 5.5 months if I can make 1 LTC per day for 5 months. That is just for the four L3+. I am a newbie, have thick skin. But looking at what happened with D3 difficulty, I am clenching my teeth worried AF! This is a perfect world, with no outages, no issues at all, which something probably will pop up. The profitability in two days dropped drastically for L3+. I doubt any of us will be making the same amount of coins today two weeks from now, let alone 5 months from now. I regret buying any machines from Bitmain. I wish I just put all the money I spent on my 4 l3+ and my eight D3s which I haven’t got yet on EOS crypto, I would have had 60k profit today.

Minermoe · · #45799

Lol I sent an email to Bitmain asking if they would not ship out my D3s and send me back my money... I told them I would tip them $100.00 I wonder what their response will be haha. I will post their response on here.

pavvappav · · #45800

You may have a better chance of getting your money back by selling it on Ebay to someone who hopes to get rich mining Dash.

Minermoe · · #45801

I am hoping to sell 6 of 8, keep two, in the hopes the price sky rockets. But I’m being optimistic

Minermoe · · #45802

It’s very SAD that Bitmain has blocked the ability for anyone posting anything in comments on their Facebook. They KNOW exactly what they are doing by scamming consumers. Everyone who bought a D3 is panicking! I am contacting the local Chinese Embassy tomorrow and filing a complaint, everyone should do this, they would seize their funds if enough people complain. We have their banking info. It’s quite sad that Chinese have a bad stigma with them being scammers, and Bitmain is going to cause their own destruction by fucking people on their orders, and shipping out D3 but not shipping power supplies because they ran out

pavvappav · · #45803

How are they scamming people? Are the hash rates less than advertised or do they consume more power?

pavvappav · · #45804

Ahh, no power supply. Are they going to ship you a P/S when it becomes available?

Minermoe · · #45805

@pav read all the reviews of people sending money via wire transfer. They don’t answer phones, emails (auto replies). They use the product before they ship them out, this is illegal. That is the definition of Fraud

AppleMiner · · #45806

no one forced you at gunpoint to buy any of the miners.

AppleMiner · · #45807

almost every company does a dry test 'burnin' period on devices before they send them out.

Minermoe · · #45808

We shall find out.... but just read the FB reviews , it’s quite shocking

AppleMiner · · #45809

you ever see an old GE litebulb assembly line, they lite up every bulb on that line and tested in, anything that didnt lite got pushed off

pavvappav · · #45810

Not sure how long they use them, but a burn-in period is not uncommon -- granted, it was more common in the past than it was today. IMHO, I’d rather them run it for a week than risk being shipped a dead unit.

Minermoe · · #45811

@appleminer are you happy they are scamming people of their hard earned money? Including you?

AppleMiner · · #45812

yep, if they want to run my unit for 1 week so i get a unit that isnt DOA i got no issue

AppleMiner · · #45813

how are you seeing anything as a SCAM?

Minermoe · · #45814

I agree with you guys!

AppleMiner · · #45815

you paid for X they sent you X

AppleMiner · · #45816

in the case of D3s, people bought X and they got X + .5 more X on top

AppleMiner · · #45817

in the later batchs, they got EXTRA power for the same price

AppleMiner · · #45818

thats like...anti scam

AppleMiner · · #45819

if they are scamming, they are doing it all wrong

pavvappav · · #45820

The D5 issue is not a hardware issue -- they killed the market by saturating it with hash power.

Minermoe · · #45821

Actually they are doing it all right l!

pavvappav · · #45822

s/D5/D3/g

Minermoe · · #45823

This has been by far the best scam I have seen for years. You either must be really young, or don’t know basic business law, however what they are doing is 100% a scam and you will see more and more people reporting them to embassy.

AppleMiner · · #45824

ok. guess we will see.

AppleMiner · · #45825

people got exactly what they paid for, I dont see a legal leg for them to stand on.

AppleMiner · · #45826

so good luck with that.

Minermoe · · #45827

Actually that is not true

AppleMiner · · #45828

no? did your L3+ not hash at 500?

AppleMiner · · #45829

did your D3 not hash at 15GH at least?

AppleMiner · · #45830

seems like you got what you paid for to me.

Minermoe · · #45831

Lol you have no clue to what they are doing! Wake up @appleminer!

Aura89 · · #45832

Using a product before selling said product is not a scam. "unused" is not a requirement to sell products, unless it’s food. Stop making yourself sound so high and mighty, just because you want something to be a scam, does not make it a scam.

pavvappav · · #45833

At 384 my first unit hashed at 501 on avg. Their advertisements state +/- 5% is expected.

Minermoe · · #45834

A legit company would answer customers by telephone, or by telephone. They are doing none of this but taking peoples money, and not shipping out what you paid for! Which is 100% a scam. I pod for x and they say i will

Minermoe · · #45835

Receive Y. They blocked EVERYONES access from posting on FB because they know exactly what they are doing. They are ignoring all customers!

AppleMiner · · #45836

ive not had any issues, other than Ive had to hit the bitmain order page to find shipping info, I usually get the emails stuff has shipped out, about a week after i already got it.

Minermoe · · #45837

That’s a scam

Minermoe · · #45838

@Appleminer, well I guess you can be a witness for Bitmain. Sounds like you work for them

AppleMiner · · #45839

so their notification of shipments could be faster, but ive gotten everythign ive paid for and its all worked as advertised.

Minermoe · · #45840

You just got really, really lucky bud

AppleMiner · · #45841

minermoe, you see to be the only one all up in arms about a scam

Aura89 · · #45842

Ignoring customers as well is not a scam. And nothing states they are trying to not ship products to consumers, if they have paid for it. I have heard of some people having issues getting their product, but these are a very small minority. As to paying for X and receiving Y, that only applies if they selling you X, and Y is lower, not if Y is higher.

pavvappav · · #45843

IDK about FB, but they seem more active on twitter, and respond to people. Have you tried sending them a DM or tweeting at them?

Minermoe · · #45844

Why do you think they don’t accept credit cards, because they are scamming people with faulty products. They supposedly test these products but still send people faulty products and ask them to ship it back to fix. Wtf company does that!

AppleMiner · · #45845

I get that people those D3s would be making $100 a day and not $10, but that is NOT bitmain or any other miner manufacturers problem.

AppleMiner · · #45846

No, they dont take Cc because they dont want chargebacks and cancels 2 months laters when the items ship and only make $10 instead of $100

AppleMiner · · #45847

and again, if you thought it was such a scam, you never should have bought anything
