check the batch file link in my sig.  lots of good info.

near the bottom of that post is a link to my original batch post, with a LOT more info.

profitability is based on your hashrate and algo you mine.

be sure in your password to supply the payout type;  as well as the algo name you are mining. ('c=btc,skien' as an example)

I have batch files for manual selection, or for profit switching available.  I should be finishing my updated version of the batch sometime soon.
To see how an individual batch launch for a single algo would be done;  check out my how to normalize section.... it has batch examples.

Sorry i'm a complete noob when it comes to this. But you've basically created a script that will automatically switch between the most profitable algos / coins? And I would just need to go through and change certain parameters etc?

I have L3+ asics, **EDIT** so I just put in scrypt algo and it will automatically switch between most profitable coin? Or does Zpool already do that regardless of script used?

Thanks for the help.

To help you specifically with your L3:

Lets say you want BTC as your payout.   Your config would be as follows:

Address: stratum+tcp://scrypt.mine.zpool.ca:3433
Username: 1PHSDYvVp6HpqtuUPocK41DrdeHbbezaeP (or other payout address)
Password: c=BTC,scrypt


Shouldn't take much more than that.

zpool stratum switches your workunits between different coins at the same time that are on that algo...  so you will mine credits on a whole bunch of different coins, and they will all end up beingm converted to your requested payout.  As payouts are converted and credited;  when you reach the threshold of 0.015 (or 0.0015 on sunday) you get your payout of the "Balance" amount seen on the wallet page on the zpool site.

If you want paid in something like DASH or LTC;  just know payouts can be delayed because the pool relies on generating enough to give to you, and to sell to credit other miners as well.  if there isnt enough, your payout is on hold until the pool generates enough.  The pool will only exchange other coins for BTC;  not the other way around.
Anyone can help to set the Asic A2k, I’m trying to mining in zpool but can’t add pool. Tks
