Hi there! I’ve been using Gminer for over a full month. in a single PC. Just experimenting with mining. Is there a better mining softwre out there? I’ve found too much info, and I’m a bit overloaded right now...

Woops, forgot to add to that quote, I use phoenixminer. I’ve looked into gminer vs phoenixminer vs nsfminer vs excavator. I can confidently say I’ve read anecdotal reports suggesting all of them are better than the other. And the differences are so nominal it doesn’t even matter. For example with gminer and phoenixminer, you pay a "dev fee" every so often by mining a share for the developer. But nsfminer which has no fees, is reportedly worse than any of the other options in terms of hashrate... So I wouldn’t worry about it too much.

On another note I followed the guides for GPU and CPU mining (instead of using Awesome Miner) and holy cow that was super easy! Right now I am mining Monero on my cruddy CPU and ETH on my 3060ti and it seems way more efficient! Might try out something else later (I would love to mine some Sha-256 or Equihash which never worked well on Awesome)

The hashrates have been about the same, but I prefer the information you get back from the Phoenixminer UI.

Kucoin locked their Polygon wallet, which caused the error. We might need to add / switchover to Bittrex markets.

Steven Godshall · · #97563
Payouts (if eligible) will resume when the coin is no longer in error. Earnings while a coin is in error go to your other payout proportions or the "backup coin" if none are available.

So my question is ’how would you say SwissBorg compare to the others staking platform?’ It was recommended to me but I’m a bit wary of their mobile only approach and withdrawal fees. on theother hand they do offer a variety of coin and are on the market for several years.

Having problem linking up my Innosilicon scrypt miners with prohashing. Connections keep showing up as dead. I’m sure it’s a problem on my end, but I don’t know what. I used the configurator and I’ve used this site for years but I am having some weird issues on my home network but configuring the pools is so straight forward and the miners are both working on nicehash (of all places)

Why is the block difficulty not updating? ETH on Status page shows still 7.5P while ETH current network difficulty is 6.16P

I dunno but the weird thing I had going was that when I was using Gminer directly on my cop my earnings were next to nothing. Switched back to Awesome Miner and used Gminer and they are back up to "ok" numbers.

@Steve, not sure how to start a new thread, but I have *LOVED* your interest-on-crypto posts. I’m happy to be at a level where I can work with Genesis directly, but I *think* that I should be also considering staking my ETH. 
Would you ever consider doing a post comparing staking services? From things like Avado to Dappnode, through All Nodes, and down to Coinbase & Kraken, I’d really respect your research. Is this something you’d be interested in? I’d chip in for your research time, but I’m just one reader...

That’s why I’m getting frustrated with prohashing misleading with the payout for digibyte, then getting no payment on ANY coin for two whole hours just killed my electric cost for the day.

yeah, our rates are too hard to explain. You get real cheap electrricity for the first 400kw then another rate for the next 400kw or so but anything over that just went to $.149. I just changed my rate schedule tho to a timed one. I have to pay .18 during peak hours (60 hrs/week) but only pay .06 during off peak (108 hrs/wk).
