Dogecoin client error recalculation...

by hazelnutz77 · · Post #27749

So i noticed that my balance today was unusually high and sure enough there was some sort of dogecoin client error. A recalculation was made to correct it but the problem is that the recalc is way off. My electricity usage is like double my balance for the day....like seriously wtf. I can’t post screenshots from my phone apparently.

We're not aware of the correction queries having made any changes to electricity calculations. Feel free to submit a support ticket and we'll be glad to assist, but because dogecoin is a merge-mined coin, even if there were errors in electricity, dogecoin changes would not have impacted them because dogecoins are always mined for free regardless of the primary coin.

Could you post the calculation of how you came to the 75% figure?

We're not aware of any errors of that magnitude. Once you provide the formula you're using to calculate your expected payouts, then I can review it and see whether we made a mistake, or whether there is a mistaken assumption in your math. Thanks!

Yeah its not the electricity that was calculated wrong, just my daily balance is around less than half compared to every other day this past week and bitcoin didn’t drop to 16 grand so it just seems way off. I obviously wouldn’t be mining if i was losing money every day. Not trying to be a butthead and its not a huge deal just something is off. Put in a ticket.

Ticket is in already. After further research, it seems that scrypt work isn't showing up at all pre- Dogecoin client fix, when you calculated the 'correct' earnings for the day.
