consulting with another guy that runs s9’s on prohashing fine, so lets see what he says
alim · · #89170
For S9s I always use the algo argument...
alim · · #89171
see the help page
citronick · · #89172
did I just see Lyra2REv2 in the list?
citronick · · #89173
for S9s, just put a=sha256 on pwd field - works fine
PolakCrypto · · #89174
even if your on port 3335 put in a=sha256 anyways?
PolakCrypto · · #89175
and yes lyra2rev2 is on there
citronick · · #89176
the only algo that I know works without a= is scrypt, every other algos needs a=
PolakCrypto · · #89177
im on equihash mining right now port 3336, no a=equihash flag, works 100%
ryguy · · #89178
you don’t need the a argument if you use the port specific for the algo
PolakCrypto · · #89179
i thought the a= flag was from sometime ago when it seemed they only had one port to connect on or something and you had to signify a=algo
PolakCrypto · · #89180
just got another rental and it fired off without a hitch, so idk would the country/foreign have anything to do with it
CSZiggy · · #89181
so if you have a Nvidia 1080, do you get more sol/s X .108 cents or do you get more running Lyra2REv2 and getting megs/s X 1.414 cents?
CSZiggy · · #89182
if on an asic its only what it can work on, but a video card should be able to work on any one of the 5, question is, which pays out the most, $ / hash? which algo?
sherm77 · · #89183
I just brought over ~900mh/s (about an hour ago) of Lyra2rev2 hash, I’m hoping that it will be a good move. Thanks Steve & team!
CSZiggy · · #89184
well there was over 270GH on Lyra a bit ago, someone must have been doing a test to see.
sherm77 · · #89185
Yeah, it was 2gh/s when I sent that 20 min ago, lots of new hash. Looks good!
PolakCrypto · · #89186
looks like guy finally got that s9 rental up for me after I copied/pasted him config info
PolakCrypto · · #89187
he said he was using port 3335 for SHA-256 as i instructed but adding a=SHA256 as well, but that wasnt working...probably mis-typed it
PolakCrypto · · #89188
@steve sokolowski is the a=sha-256 spelling sensitive as in if you do a=sha256 without the hyphon itll reject shares
CSZiggy · · #89189
I do think that is correct, either use port specific or have to use a=sha-256 with the hyphen. BUT, if you ask nice or put in a ticket, maybe they will make A=sha256 and A=sha-256 both work so in case you forget the hyphen it still works.
CSZiggy · · #89190
wouldn't be very hard for them to put in and may help others down the road connect easier.
CSZiggy · · #89191
never hurts to ask them.
PolakCrypto · · #89192
idk but thats what the guy said he did, without hyphon and was rejecting shares, but he was on port specific 3335 for sha, so it must be sensitive
PolakCrypto · · #89193
has to be if it was rejecting like that, he learned something today considering bonus time for me LOL
CSZiggy · · #89194
you said you moved 900MH over here, how many machines and what types?
CSZiggy · · #89195
or what algo were they working on before and at what speed?
PolakCrypto · · #89196
that was shermy not me
CSZiggy · · #89197
ahh, ok got people mixed up, sorry
CSZiggy · · #89198
but yeah, if using 3333 port then need a=sha-256 is using the sha port then shouldnt need anything for a password
PolakCrypto · · #89199
idk i told him everything initially correct even with n=workername, i guess he assumed since im "renting" i have no experience so he put it in...
CSZiggy · · #89200
as long as you found one to rent or he fixed it so it worked for you.
CSZiggy · · #89201
you got better pricing than if you rented from nicehash?
PolakCrypto · · #89202
idk whats going rate for a S9 24hr on nicehash?
CSZiggy · · #89203
not sure, but if I could have saved half I think i would have shopped around first
CSZiggy · · #89204
compared prices at a few rental places
CSZiggy · · #89205
0.13 PH/s for 24 hours starting at 0.0050 BTC (32.44 USD)
CSZiggy · · #89206
so 130 TH for 24 hours for 32 bucks.
CSZiggy · · #89207
is S9 does 13 TH then this would be 10 of those for 24-hours...or 3.25 for a S9 miner for 24 hours.
CSZiggy · · #89208
as long as the S9 you rented was around 3.25 for 24-hours then its fine, if you paid 2X that you got screwed.
PolakCrypto · · #89209
ehh paid double that rate but didnt have to pay in crypto 
PolakCrypto · · #89210
doesnt nice hash have a minimum amount to rent like $40?
CSZiggy · · #89211
most prefer to pay in scrypto, saves them having to convert it on an exchange or be charged capital gains on taxes.
CSZiggy · · #89212
dont think id spend 1 coin just to earn another, semms like if there was that big a difference you could just exchange 1 for the other and be further ahead.
CSZiggy · · #89213
not sure their minimuns, never bought only ever sold hashing on there
PolakCrypto · · #89214
nah the scam fake rentals catching noobs is you pay for a "rental" then they send you 10% if your lucky 20% of what you paid in Fiat in crypto
PolakCrypto · · #89215
u dont give em any mining pool details, u just send em a wallet address
CSZiggy · · #89216
yeah before I would pay and not know if I got something for the value or not, Id need to go with some sort of established company
CSZiggy · · #89217
not doug and bob's crypto rentals.
CSZiggy · · #89218
send me 1 bitcoin and ill point all my asic hashing power to the pool of your choise for 2 days.
CSZiggy · · #89219
or delete my email, take your money, and run....one of those 2 options.
PolakCrypto · · #89220
no thats the ebay scams for selling z9 asics, Not taking paypal send me x amount of BTC to this address as payment
PolakCrypto · · #89221
and its a really good deal price on it
PolakCrypto · · #89222
so someone falls for it
CSZiggy · · #89223
well, if you pay for items on ebay and not go through their policy of payment options, then you are open to whatever you get.

which miner should I use to mine lyra2rev2 with 8 and rx470?it is mining, but not accepting or rejecting any shares.I,m using smos

Steve Sokolowski · · #89227
PolakCrypto wrote: doesnt nice hash have a minimum amount to rent like $40?This is one of the big issues with NiceHash’s model - you lose a lot of money in things like minimum purchase amounts, minimum withdrawals, withdrawal fees, and the like, so make sure you know how much these things add up to before you send money over

For NVIDIA GPUS use ccminer-alexis78-v1.5.3-cuda8 -a lyra2rev2 -o stratum+tcp://prohashing.com:3337 -u <putyourusernamehere> -p a=lyra2rev2 -i 20
citronick · · #89235
For AMD cards -- try sgminer 5.5.5 or higher (SMOS)

wow, new bonus is 7%. thanks Steve

OK, I got the ccminer alexis working with later version. Thanks!

However, can’t find the binaries on recommended miners for AMD.

is it worth it to add Argentum https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/argentum/#markets and SHIELD https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/sh ... h/#markets to the lyra2v2 pool? they have pairings on our supported exchanges.
davidsin · · #89270
Is the scrypt profitability way, way higher than it usually is (like, 2x)? What influences the profitability?
CSZiggy · · #89271
@davidsin : Price of the coins that are available for mining. If a coin doubles in price we are able to mine, I would guess the profitablility for that algo would also double.
grinbuck · · #89272
I have a small confusion. If I solo mine Hushcoin and have my payout set to 100% BTC, will prohashing convert the mined HushCoin to BTC for me? Or will I need to provide an account to transfer it to?
citronick · · #89273
A bunch of high end NVIDIA rigs looking for new home -- which one more profitable ... Lyra2Rev2 or Equihash ?
CSZiggy · · #89274
@grinbuck : if you solo mine any coin, you earn that coin. Autopool lets you mine the top coin or a static coin and choose payout coins.
CSZiggy · · #89275
@citronick : since Lyra2rev2 is asic resistant, I would say it pays higher, depends what your MH is there vs Sol/s on the equihash algos.
sherm77 · · #89277
@citronick I was mining equihash with my 19 1080ti’s, but Lyra2Rev2 is much more profitable so far
