So if that’s 200 times average transaction fee, for Cardano fee is around 0.16-0.17 ADA per transaction. That puts it at around 32-34 ADA (for free threshold). Yours is at 50 ADA.

Hey does anyone know if the trusted mining benefits will ever include a bonus for RandomX? Or is the error rate just so low that it won’t be added?

I’m sure there is an internal method they determine who gets it and how much it is. So probably no real way to know.

why does the status page say the trusted mining benefit for ethash is 0.50% but when you look at the shares details it shows 0.01% ??

ETH gas prices were insane today so why are the payouts so low today ???
Murr808 · · #98256
if I take my daily payout amount in USD and subtract the trusted mining award USD then multiply that amount by the trust mining percentage point it does not add up, it’s always a few cents off

is prohashing skimming off the trust mining benefit ??

does anyone know why the ETH profitability here is been in a free fall the past three days ??

equihash pool fee is 3.9 % but trusted mining benefit is 5 % ??? huh?
Murr808 · · #98263
is this correct ?
Alynn · · #98264
From what I understand the % is of the coin(s) mined, and not the value. Second. The cash value is at the time of paying, so things change in crypto as they do. The 24 hour profitability is for the previous day, which will calculate after 12am EST. Finally you can see your payment for the trusted mining under that tab in your account settings.

rmpx · · #98271
Yeah, since it started to threaten the rise, prohashing is more like amateurhashing. My portfolio is also stuck, for some reason, the site is wanting to shove feathercoins down my throat. I’m having absurd problems with lack of information and logic in the prices of smaller coins, they call it "spread", but the difference in price for the double doesn’t make sense and this value is also not written anywhere for verification. They ask to open a ticket, but I’ve been unanswered for weeks. True, I also agree, my hashrate here doesn’t bring the profit that I have in other pools, honestly, the numbers all look made up, because they don’t make sense. If you think about it, every week there are some little problems that steal pennies from you, they apologize, and if you add up, you’ve already lost about 25%. Honestly, I like Steve a lot, I keep trying here for him, he seems responsible and tries to keep the site looking good. I really wish him success. But the payments part, there’s the problem. You have to renovate this entire sector, then it smells really bad.
Banished_Privateer · · #98272
I haven’t lost any money, it’s just in different coin. Here’s the ticket: UST-9964
Banished_Privateer · · #98273
Prohashing is great for features like proswitching, portfolio targetting, Coinbase payouts and tons of other innovative options. They are also a small pool and it’s always good to support small pools for decentralization and safety of the blockchain. Perhaps I’m missing some 5% of my earnings somehow because I’m not mining on other pools, but Prohashing spares me effort needed to sell stuff on exchanges and purchase the desired portfolio I want.

7/20/2021 - Eth Price: $1,800 - My total earnings: $1.39. 12/08/2021 - Eth Price: $3000 - My total earnings: $1.81. ETH1.800 / ETH3000 = + 40% Profit 1.39 / Profit 1.81 = 23% (-17%). That’s because, at the beginning of August, I added a new server, so in these gains, there is an increase of LESS than 23% at the expense of currency appreciation. Against facts there are no arguments. That’s if I trust the "total earnings", because the "consumer charts" show other numbers, and the "daily earnings" show others! The site already charges 4%, it is one of the highest values I know. I’m also here for proswitching, mining lots of coins really helps. But we are already paying more for this, and there must be transparency, not the appearance of transparency. If a currency charges a spread, this has to be specified, and not just show its actual cost in the "consumer charts" for those calculating only. Stop buying machines on automatic and putting them to mine. That’s what they do to fools. You must protect your profitability. Here, I only leave 30% of my machines because of these defects. I’d love to put them all in, as I’ve already told Steve, but these small unresolved profit losses hold me back.
Banished_Privateer · · #98280
Do you really not understand that mining profits are not 1:1 corelated with ETH price? It’s way more complicated than that.
Alynn · · #98281
You realize that with Eth the value of the individual coin has less to do with what you can earn at a particular hashrate.
-MaVerick- · · #98282
also, wall of texts hurt in a chat like this. if you got a big issue, there are other ways
Alynn · · #98283
True, if you think there is something wrong, either ticket, or put your thoughts in a forum post with good formatting. Prove it.
rmpx · · #98284
Nice try, but the issue is proportionality. I mine xmr and eth. They rose by almost the same proportion, 35%-45%. The question here is how many coins can I exchange for the same amount mined per day of ETH and XMR. From what I was able to learn from what the site exposes me to, this exchange is carried out in three stages: ETH/XMR -> USDT -> COIN The less dollars I earned in the day, consequently, the less coins I was able to exchange. I confirmed this by the amount of coins exchanged per day. In other words, if the ETH/XMR value it, I should be able to exchange it for more altcoins. This proportionality accompanies the relationship with the dollar. It is deficient in the same proportion. I have been trading between 15% - 25% less currencies compared to ETH/XMR appreciation. If there is something hidden in this, such as fees or different time to payment for applying the exchange rate, I was not informed. Now, if math isn’t proof for you, we’re wasting time here. Sorry if I hurt you, I just wanted to show my solidarity with friends who shared the same doubts. And I’ve already tried the "other means". Automatic responses and lack of response deadlines has been a constant here. If you have a problem with this, open a ticket asking for character limitation for the forum. Maybe they’ll answer you.
Alynn · · #98285
Then go elsewhere. We don’t need to hear about you leaving. My math checks out. Perhaps because you are not mining all that much you have some rounding errors on your side or the other.
-MaVerick- · · #98286
jesus...nobody reads a wall of text like this
rmpx · · #98287
If I want, I will, thanks for the recommendation. But the 30% of servers that are now turned on in prohashing have already been set aside for this purpose, taking into account this discrepancy and taking the risk on that loss margin. Now, I’ve heard other people, forum users, who deserve my respect as much as I do for you and anyone else. They raised doubts that I already had, I opened a ticket and was not answered. Did they take that risk? Yes, I read the forum almost daily. It would be stupid if I didn’t pay attention to where I invest any of my money. Now, censorship is typical of dictatorial governments. I repudiate any form of constraining a person to speak up, whether by any means or platform.

Banished_Privateer · · #98290
Seems like Prohashing missed out on the censoring part, since anyone was always allowed to openly speak up here their concerns. I haven’t seen any forum posts or chat messages being removed, even made by someone as ignorant as you.

ryguy · · #98292
@rmpx : Price going up is not the only factor in how much you can mine. You’re arguing like all factors are fixed and price is the only matter
rmpx · · #98293
@Banished Privateer: I didn’t claim there was censorship on the prohashing site. You may suffer from reading problems, this may explain your excessive judgment in other people’s reasoning. I advise you to seek professional help. @ryguy: I didn’t say that, you’re saying it. What I wrote is very clear, written below. Losing an argument is no reason for bullying. What I wrote, I did for @Ilovecoffee, @Farren and @Murr808, who asked real questions, like real users who took questions looking for a solution. I’ve already done that, and I’ve shared my problems with them. I am closing this matter, and I will feel free to share my thoughts here again if I wish.
Banished_Privateer · · #98294
That’s pretty much where I stopped taking him seriously. Lack of understanding how basic mining works.

@Banised_Privateer: lol, now, I realized that you are in artificial intelligence to defend the site. I’m embarrassed by others now. Need this?
ryguy · · #98296
@rmpx : You wrote two dates, the price of ETH and how much you mined. Did you also factor in that mining difficulty went up about 20% as the price increased? If difficulty goes up 20% and price goes up 45% you’ll come out making about 25% more overall. Pretty simple

Does anybody else have their miners lock up sometimes when the coin being mined changes to another coin to be mined? I have 11 ASIC miners and 40 CPU miners, I’m only running a few over here because of this problem. None of my miners lock up at other mining pools. When I set my miners to a static coin they don’t lock up, except for Bitcoin. If I try to mine static Bitcoin it shows the pool is dead when my ASIC’s reboot. I’m asking you forum guys if you have experienced this also. Please don’t say "put in a ticket", I know how to setup my machines so it’s not on my end.

That’s why I come to these forums to see what kind of issues people are having, I don’t come here to hang out as an alternative Facebook Social Media hangout...Nope, the problem still remains. I’ve already opened a ticket, but lately, they’ve only been solving problems on Sunday morning or Monday. If you look closely, these problems have happened more often on Fridays. If I had set to a rising currency, the damage would be real. I tried, in this dilemma, to set the problematic currency as "backup currency", but it was useless. So you can see that the problem has no systematic meaning. The backup currency should have stopped it, but it didn’t. My advice, don’t leave all your miners here. Having multiple pools reduces inconsistencies in service provision. Prohashing has potential, but it’s still a small pool. The more a service grows, the more it depends on ethics and fairness. If they stopped these apparent, perhaps speculative, fluctuations, more miners would be turned on and the profit would increase proportionately. But it always has the chance of being a systematic error.

Whattomine.com is suggesting my daily reward should be 0.0035 but I’m getting about 0.0029 lately. I’ve found Whattomine has been conservative in its estimates the last couple months.
