Your website is broken.  When a customer tries to purchase one of your sim cards and goes from 'cart' to 'checkout' nothing happens. 

Looks like no payment processor?

I would be interested to see the Hash rate of my 6850k also if anyone has that information.

I have a 6800k  I get about 400 on cryptonight, running on 8 threads.

Re: Keep mining or buying?

60 cards is quite an investment that you've made.

As I see it, there are two types of miners. 

TYPE 1:  Mines coins based not on what the coin is worth currently, but mines coins based on the change that coin may increase in value at a later time.
TYPE 2: Mines the most profitable coin at that time.

It sounds like you are a type 2 miner.

Based on that, I might consider beginning to sell off some cards and here's why
1. Nvidia will release new cards this year.  I expect the next generation of Nvidia cards to be better at mining ETH than they are now.  AMD is supreme in the ETH mining market, this is why I think Nvidia will seek to make improvements there.  If you are going to continue to mine ETH, I might consider starting to sell some cards off now slowly.  Get some liquid fiat to buy the next gen cards.
2. if you believe #1, then you should also think AMD cards will drop in value after the new Nvidia releases.

Your other option is to begin mining other coins.  Most coins RIGHT NOW wont make you as much daily income as ETH.  However, some of those coins may make you MORE than mining ETH - IF you mind and HODL.   

If you can mine and HODL , there are many opportunities out there.  I've always felt this is where the real mining profits are. However, if you must spend your mining profits monthly, this wont work for you.

Is this the same card that will be released in the USA in April ?

And the beginning of the rumors begin...

From the article
Quote
It has begun folks. The leak season for NVIDIA’s upcoming Ampere architecture is officially open for business. Fresh from 3DCenter, a rumor which states that the next generation lineup for NVIDIA will be based not on Volta, but on the Ampere micro-architecture. Not only that, but if the rumor is to be believed then GP102 has already been transitioned to EOL (End of Life) and will be replaced with the GA series soon.

NVIDIA’s Ampere micro-architecture will succeed Pascal, GA104 GPU allegedly launching on April 12, GP102 production has halted
here's the link to the article

Re: Help My GUI wallet wont connect

I fixed this.  After an uninstall, it is important to delete the sumokoin folder from the /programdata folder.  Windows users, this is a hidden folder.  You must view hidden folders before you can delete it.  After deleting this data, I was able to reinstall the wallet, enter my memonic key and all is good.

Thank you for the help.

I did this just now and had no luck.  I'm guessing the uninstalled left something.  I think this because when I reinstalled it and opened the wallet it asked for my password and then started synching.  It did not make me enter my private keys or other. 

Wallet still stuck.

You can try to delete all wallet file and resync your wallet ( need to back up wallet.dat or backup file)

Thanks.  Can you be more specific as to what files to delete?  There are about probably 30 files in the wallet directory folder along with a /resources folder.  Inside the /resources folder are /bin, /icons/ and /www

edit: I dont see a wallet.dat file.

Help My GUI wallet wont connect

I'm been mining to the official sumokoin gui wallet for over a month now.  For the last two days, when I try to open my wallet, I put in my password and it is accepted.  The network shows synchronized.

However, it gets stuck at 'loading wallet'

I googled this issue and reddit said to run it with admin permissions.  I did that but no luck. 

I've not found anymore help online.

Has anyone else had this issue?

Re: Sprouting Bitbean is 10X more profitable than mining
by
Dtrucksguitarfan
on 29/01/2018, 00:51:41 UTC
I have 2 6 rx580 mining rigs. I also have about 4M Bitbeans on a dedicated "Bean Machine"
Initial investment in Bitbean: about 2000$ (April last year)
Initial investment in rigs: about 6000$
I use my mining payouts to buy Beans: 4000-5000 Beans each week worth.
I sprout 40,000-60,000 Beans each week.
Why isn't everyone doing this?


I've never heard of it.  Can you inbox me details on how to get started? Thanks

It's going to be a bloodbath in a few months when NVIDIA brings out new cards.  Gamers will be able to buy their 1070 for retail then.  But that retail price is what they will pay when they buy them used from a miner.

Thank you. This is very helpful. Now if I can only find this option in this bios...



It's there.  I had to poke around a lot to find it on my MSI.  One reason I never throw away the MB book.

That said, yes, it is not attractive for them to point the hashrate to the FairPool, and they don't.



IDK if thats 100% correct.  A couple days ago, I briefly say our 'top miner hashrate' on our pool jump from 200 or so to over 1MH/s

Thank you for your response.  It confirmed that I was correct in my assumption.  

I hope that in the future, you add more pools to Fairpool. I have more coins to explore!

The only place in the Continental US that can argue for high rates with the WORST California rates are in the New England states.
California does see a lot of variation on rates - the large urban areas like San Diego and LA are high but not insanely so, while the rural areas like the mountainous heavy wooded far Northern part of the state tend to be VERY high rates.

It says a lot that a lot of the hydro power produced in Central Washington is sold all the way to California - and that's it's STILL cheaper despite transmission costs than they can manage locally in most of the state.



I'm glad I live in Georgia USA.  My rate is .045 cents

PPLNS prevents pool hopping abuse but works well for miners mining at the pool for a quite some time.

I asked this in another thread, but would you mind shining a little light onto the crazy hashrate/difficulty excursions that I am seeing on the sumo pool several times a day recently? 

I'm not a very experienced miner, in fact sumo.fairpool is the first pool that I've mined for any amount of time (couple weeks now) - so this may be obvious to more experienced people.

It seems overall difficulty stays 'normally' around 6-8k (might be a little off) and the total Hashrate for sumo is about 25M/hs

From time to time (generally several times in a 24 hour period) the hashrate jumps to 35-43M/hs and therefore difficulty increases to 9-11k.  Usually this lasts several hours and then SUMO returns to 'normal'

Is the the result of large mining farms jumping from one coin to another ?  Doesn't PPLNS make that 'not as attractive' or is their hashrate just so large it is inconsequential to them ?

As I'm new to this my Hash is only about 2Kh/s which brings me just under 1 sumo/day however during these big difficulty jumps I drop to under /5 SUmo daily.  This brings my daily average down to .6-.7 according to how long these big guys stay around for.

I appreciate any knowledge you can give me about this.  Thank you.

Great result for rx550 price

hi! do you have a link to this please?
