The bigger issue is new manufacturers that have higher hashrate systems for less power consumption (bigger profits). BITMAIN isn’t the only player. Most of their rigs aren’t profitable in most electrical markets. We need to see an increase in Bitcoin usage and higher/more fees per transaction. This is the crypto winter of 2018.

Everyone’s situation is different...but if the rigs aren’t profitable, who is going to buy it? The goal now is to decide if you mine and HODL your coins, will they be worth more in 1 mth, 6mths or a year from now. If btc or ltc is worth 2x or 5x what it is today the mining has paid off. If you have to pay electrical costs from your mining profits, then you have a problem.

The SHA-256 algo difficulty increases every 14 days. On avergage it’s over 8% every 2 week. One place to see the increases (including past history) is https://btc.com/stats/diff or the difficulty for each coin https://www.coinwarz.com/charts/difficulty-charts. For example, btc difficulty has increased 54% in the last 90 days.

If I wasn’t being clear, I’m using an L3+. Looks like difficulty is down since acquiring the miner. LTC value has also roughly halved though
@steve can i use n=for my worker on sha256 with a S9 or I cant use ANY password arguments? just asking cause I got a s9 rental and a guy is trying to refuse to let me run on prohashing he says errors...
@PolakCrypto : depends what rental it is. If its nicehash might be OK, if its like miningrigrentals, they only use 1 IP address so once its banned from too many stales for ANY customer, they all lose connection until unbanned, so some rentals wont work on here
and using n=miner1 is fine, BUT if the person has 4 machines, then they would need n=miner1, n=miner2, n=miner3, n=miner4 across each machine so they are unique, otherqiese you get a naming error, but the hashrates still count.
i have no idea, i asked him to provide a screen shot with information provided, im not sure never used a bitmain asic if its got weird quirks about how you type stuff in or what
i know some miners like you just put in bare URL and itll work like "prohashing.com" then others you need the stratum+tcp//prohashing.com:3335 type format all in the same field
yeah im wondering if he mis typed my username cause i sat for like 5-10 mins straight with my earnings page open and i never saw anything else connect other than my equihash miner thats going currently
