Re: PPLNS services proposal

PPLNS data on the website will be enhanced, does that mean the information won't disappear if I need to shut down a PPLNS worker? I have to say that's one of the more frustrating things with PPLNS mining on prohashing compared to other PPLNS pools. It would also be nice to have dates associated with...

Re: Which mining software for KAWPOW?

Sometimes I use T-rex miner if using a LHR card for using the LHR dual mining unlock that mines eth and kawpow simultaneously, and then I can also use the lhr-low-power mode even though it says it's only for eth and autolykos it should decrease power usage sporadically for the whole gpu even while d...

Re: Setting up old scrypt miners .bat issues

It would help to know which mining software you're using. But generally if you have the drivers and they are being recognized by the computer, you need to find the COM port numbers in device manager under ports and in the bat file you initialize each device by specifying the com port, clock frequenc...

Re: Website issues

I'm not an expert on these kinds of things, but if all the IP addresses getting banned are just randomized spoofed addresses, what would happen if it was spoofed to look like the IP of a regular miner and that gets the miner banned? That would probably be unlikely but it sounds like you're expecting...

Re: Suggestion: Automatic Mining Template Switching

I like the idea of payout templates, but mining templates would probably not work without making a mining OS or algo-switching miner. Lately I've been checking the status page a few times a day because the most profitable algorithm for my GTX 960 rig switches between neoscrypt and equihash 144_5. I ...

Why would ethereum mining be going away? My opinion is it's not going away any time soon.

Re: Cuda on my Surface is slower

you can use GMiner for ethash, etchash, and equihash 144_5: https://github.com/develsoftware/GMinerRelease/releases you can use CryptoDredge with nvidia gpus for neoscrypt: https://github.com/technobyl/CryptoDredge/releases I think x17 is also an algorithm for GPU miners, but profitability is usuall...

Re: Zeus miners configuration

you need to install the drivers for the usb chip from here (just the CP210x windows drivers should work if you're using windows, don't need the universal or serial enumerator versions): https://www.silabs.com/developers/usb-to-uart-bridge-vcp-drivers and it's hard to get good software for zeus miner...

Re: Equihash mining fail!

Regular equihash is dominated by ASICs, I don't recommend to mine equihash with cpu or gpu anymore because the profitability is really low. Equihash 144_5 could be profitable for some GPUs though. I think the equihash 144_5 solver fits in 2 GB so 2 GB cards and up can mine it. Equihash 144_5 miners ...
