@olkah : not that impressed really. I doubt the power of the facebook much less its coin. That’s the same company that tried to push VR right? How did that work out?

using a blockchain to validate users on an app might be fine. Charging people a crypto coin to post on their site is interesting, 1000 posts for $1 might generate more revenue, or send everyone away to a free service.

What’s the difference between vanilla Equihash and 144,5 ? Is it configuration only, or is the variation ASIC-resistant? (I.e. Will it work on a Z9-mini?)

@ Steve Sokolowski when will the original algorithm work Cryptonight ?

when will 144_5 mining on prohashing work with Gminer? theres no possible way to use it since you require --pers string to be absent from mining.bat/config
PolakCrypto · · #91848
gminer will not launch without a specified --pers string
PolakCrypto · · #91849
as well you cant leave it blank..miner wont launch
PolakCrypto · · #91850
also prohashing doesnt support --pers auto either
PolakCrypto · · #91851
hence why i was getting rejected shares with it

Steve Sokolowski · · #91878
Monero changed its algorithm and we weren’t aware of that
CSZiggy · · #91879
I realize that is like a base coin for its algo, but was there a policy about abandoning coins that do forks without enough prior notice to allow changes to be made to then in a realistic time?
CSZiggy · · #91880
The next question I guess, how much $ was being generated by Monero being mined? Is it worth while to keep it minable if the profits the pool gets from mining it have a lower ROI than increasing payouts on SHA-256 or scrypt or X-11? Might increasing payouts on one of the other algos be a better use of pool resources or was Monero that popular/profitable?

Steve Sokolowski · · #91882
the issue here is, like the Ethereum fork, that we weren’t made aware of it until a customer informed us after it happened

I have negative balance and i see the notification I gott pay off negative balances..can I just send you back the coins...

cause i feel its egregious your guys system pays out to put us in the negative then its our fault and we have to "mine" for free to pay off your faulty payout system?

my dad received a $5,000 check from DISCOVER bank on Saturday for a loan he had never taken out; he called them and they agreed to rip up the check - mistakes like that are made all the time, but it doesn’t mean it was his money to keep

@PolakCrypto : I still have 2 coins, that are negative -.0000031 and whatnot that cannot ever be earned again. leaves data on the earnings/settings page you can never get rid of, yep.
jde · · #91896
I noticed the orphan rates for the three biggest Equihash coins are over 5%. Is that right? Does that mean the pool is losing money with Equihash?
CSZiggy · · #91897
@jde : Pretty sure it means they are figuring in a 5% loss of what its valued at on the exchanges due to the average of losing a block here and there due to orphans. They still get 5% of what YOU make. So you get paid 95% of what the exchange rate is, then they get 5% of that.
CSZiggy · · #91898
you would have to ask the pool owners if the selling of 1 coin and the buying of another also incurs the fees on the exchanges to buy-sell instant coins, and then the 5% fee on top of those fees.
Steve Sokolowski · · #91900
jde wrote: I noticed the orphan rates for the three biggest Equihash coins are over 5%. Is that right? Does that mean the pool is losing money with Equihash?those orphan rates are accounted for when deciding payouts - these coins have very fast block times, and therefore have a lot of orphans

has started a new topic: New poll question available
olkah · · #91929
I have developed a strong belief that the pools added an algorithm on which the usual miner is not what opportunities to make good money and added only fraudulent algorithms such as CryptonightR. And like Cryptonight if and when it will be added then it will be impossible to earn and not because of the coins he has little, and certainly not because they are not on the exchanges.For example https://www.mining-dutch.nl/ when asked, add Cryptonight goes off the defensive as buto didn't hear the question.I believe that it is done deliberately and it seems that there is a conspiracy.
olkah · · #91930
У меня сложилось стойкое убеждение в том что на пулы добавляют алгоритм на котором обычному шахтеру нет не какой возможности хорошо заработать а добавляется исключительно алгоритмы мошеннические такие как CryptonightR. А такой как Cryptonight если и будет когда то добавлен то на нём уже заработать будет невозможно и не потому что монет у него мало и тем более не потому что их нет на биржах.Например https://www.mining-dutch.nl/ при вопросе добавте Cryptonight уходит в глухую оборону как буто не слышыл вопроса.Я так считаю что сделано это умышленно и складывается впечатление что тут есть сговор.
olkah · · #91931
And the more the problem is not how can not be the equipment as for example something for other algorithms of this problem simply does not exist but only exclusively for Cryptonight it is and it leads to certain thoughts.
