Beginner miner having some success, some hiccups, any ideas/tips?
So I have been messing around trying to learn about GPU mining for the past month or 2.
after playing around with a few methods I have settled into mostly using Nicehash and then the software suite from 2miners, mostly for RVN (kapow) and ETH (t-rex).
Nicehash seems straightforward, easy to setup (Laptop with a 1650ti is running the full suite, Desktop with a 3070 currently only runs the quickminer when I go that route). My main concerns about this way of mining is finding the best ways to move the rewards out of nicehash and into either a wallet or exchange or bank account the best/cheapest way (Canada). Any tips on this would be appreciated, I have tested a few methods but havent settled on a 'best way' so far.
My main issue I am having while mining is running the 2miners software. I tried RVN miner (kapow) on the laptop and desktop, and let it run for over a day. When I checked my wallet address online it would show the stats successfully (number of workers, rate of income, etc). Once I reached the required 10RVN for a payout, it seemed to send to my wallet no problem. I recieved the 10RVN. I was currently at 6 RVN left in that account, and I was wanting to test mining ETH so I swapped the 3070 to t-rex miner, mining to my personal ETH wallet. This again I had no issues with, the stats now showed up on 2miners.com for both my RVN and my ETH wallet. I swapped the laptop back to Nicehash for the rest of the day, to try to start tracking differences in income etc.
TL/DR : Stopped mining RVN coin on 2miners for a day, had 16RVN, it sent me the 10min payout, now when I try to mine again (2 days later) the site doesnt recognize my wallet and shows 0 stats?
Any Idea what I may be doing wrong? Also, what kind of rules do pools have for starting/stopping mining... Right now I am mining ETH for 2miners.com and am getting closer to my first payout but am scared to restart my pc, in case the site suddenly 'forgets' I ever mined for them. I checked the .bat files and my wallet address and rigname all seem to be correct, nothing has changed, I just cant find my RVN coin mining stats, or mine to my RVN wallet anymore?
Thanks for any help in this/tips anyone may have!
(PS, I know mining on a laptop is a bad idea, its getting RMA'd under full warranty soon, so I am just using it as extra learning til I send it away
