BFGMiner RPC and local wallet mining
by
JLEATHERMAN
on 08/05/2015, 14:18:40 UTC
Hi there Luke!

Is there anyway to instruct BFGMiner to switch to mine to another local wallet when RPC communications to a polled wallet indicates that either the difficulty level or the network hashrate is sufficiently low enough to then switch the RPC port the miner sends its hashes to?

Currently, I have all my coin wallets running and check each with the RPC dialog box with 'getmininginfo' to determine if it is worthwhile mining a specific coin that I know I will be able to solve blocks for, then I manually quit BFGMiner and restart it with the port number changed.

Thanks in advance.

where's dev?Huh is he the one dumping all those coins??? How can one trust this coin when someone is staking thousands of coins so fast and dumping it all! Can someone check the code??? No reason for dev not showing up even scammer once in a while post in their scan coins threads.
coin sentiment is very very low!

Every block stakes for 16.18 XQN or lower.  

int64_t GetProofOfStakeReward(int64_t nCoinAge, int64_t nFees, int nHeight)
{
    int64_t nSubsidy = nCoinAge * COIN_YEAR_REWARD * 33 / (365 * 33 + Cool;
    int64_t nSubsidyLimit = 618 * COIN;

    if(nHeight >= 74000)
   nSubsidyLimit = 16.18 * COIN;


    nSubsidy = min(nSubsidy, nSubsidyLimit);

    if (fDebug && GetBoolArg("-printcreation"))
        printf("GetProofOfStakeReward(): create=%s nCoinAge=%"PRId64"\n", FormatMoney(nSubsidy).c_str(), nCoinAge);

    return nSubsidy + nFees;
}

Well, the smiley face is really the number eight.  Don't know why it showed up as a smiley face.  I looked through the code attempting to determine what would be the best block size but ended up getting lost in the code.  Maybe someone else here is more qualified to see if they can figure it out.

Can anyone tell me the date that GAW shut down the cloud mining operations on Zenminer?

Many thanks.

Does anyone know if there is law regarding time limitation on filing of chargebacks from credit card companies against GAW MINERS?

You would think that Josh Garza stating how he ordered a miner for several thousand dollars and didn't receive it from the manufacturer would feel about screwing average people out of their hard-earned money, but, maybe this was his way of recouping his loss.  Also,  ZenCloud has not paid anyone for even Hashstakers today the customary .009 XPY and the HashMarket is closed.

What a scumbag.

Command line help

on 10/09/2014, 17:05:07 UTC
I am trying to figure out how the BFGMiner command when you have multiple devices?  I have two gridseed 5-chip orbs on com ports 78 & 79, a zeus miner on com port 77, and two opencl graphics cards.  No matter what I try for -S I either see the zeus, and the gridseeds as "Initializing ..." (forever), but the OCL's are turned off.  Just can't figure out how to get all 5 devices to work using one batch file.

Can anyone assist here?

Can someone show me an example of where the #xnsub flag goes:

1) stratum+tcp://miningpool.com#xnsub:3333

or

2) stratum+tcp://miningpool.com:3333#xnsub

Many Thanks!

Re: MultiMiner Remoting & MobileMiner: Your rigs. Your coins. Your pools. Your way.

1.  I get messages all the time:

     "Error accessing the Mobileminer API (500)" & "Error accessing the Mobileminer API (400)"
     "Error parsing the Coinchoose.com JSON API"
     "Error parsing the Coinwarz.com JSON API"

Click the links in the notifications to see the issue. The APIs are returning errors. Not much I can do there. Sometimes CoinChoose.com is down. Sometimes CoinWarz.com returns API key errors if you go over your allotment. Again click the link to see the issue.

>>>>> OK, I can see that occurring.  What about the MobileMiner API error messages 400 & 500?


2.  Also, I cannot get Multiminer (backend bfgminer) to mine on any GPU card at a decent hashrate without totally crashing my computer using the    
     following scrypt parameters (but I have no problem using cgminer).

     -I 20,16,13 -w 128,128,128 --shaders 2048,1024,512 --auto-fan --auto-gpu --temp-target 85,75,75 --temp-cutoff 95,80,80 --no-submit-stale
     --lookup-gap 2 --gpu-platform 0 --gpu-threads 1 --scan-time 60 --disable-rejecting

Try removing all the arguments and adding them back until things are stable. Mining with many different types of GPUs is fraught with frustration, failure, and poor performance. I have never once heard anyone else claim otherwise.

>>> I have had great performance with GUIMiner-Scrypt using different brands of cards.  It uses CGMiner as you know and it does play nice - I have had no problems using it.  So, why do I believe in MultiMiner? -- because it is the only software that is GUI based that acts as a great front-end to bfgminer (which has its own problems and idiosyncrasies that I don't have the time for) which supports GPU and ASIC mining, Scrypt or SHA-2.  No other software that I have evaluated does them both BECAUSE they were all forks off of a previous work.


4.  I can't seem to get remoting to work - I click on the remote computer node, but nothing displays in the main window.  If I go to the remote
    computer via Teamviewer, there is a message in the running instance of Multiminer on the (remote) machine stating "Multiminer remoting signature
    verification failed."

All rigs need MultiMiner installed and must be on the same Intranet and Workgroup. If you are getting a signature failure that means they are not on the same Workgroup or you have assigned different passwords in the Perks screen.

>>> They are!  The are both on the same intranet, workgroup, AND there are no passwords in either installation.

5.  Lastly, my biggest problem seems to be when either an exception occurs in either bfgminer or Multiminer and because of the JIT debugger I must
    answer with a "Details", "Continue", or "Quit" button - I don't have this issue in say GUIMiner or GUIMiner-Scrypt.  So is there something that I am
    doing incorrectly here, or is there no centralized app specific error handler?

Nothing you are doing incorrectly. What you are seeing is the centralized error handler. Report the error details on here or Github and then click Continue.

>>> Quite frankly, that would be quite cumbersome.  JIT dialog box doesn't allow CTRL-A to select all of the text so one can copy the error message easily to put into an email message.  Does Github support a central database for data collection for Software Architects?  A certain amount of free space on GitHub or some other place whereby client software sends error message data directly to the collection server WITHOUT user intervention, so that the data can be profiled and a fix be found?


Now if someone who knows can answer question 3 I'll be all set!  How are devices enumerated in bfgminer and then MultiMiner?  Is the first device shown on a bfgminer -S opencl:auto -d? considered device 0 or the last possible enumerated device?

great changes and updates!!
in an effort to provide feedback and make things better,
keep up the great work

I still have problems with some of Multiminers components, so I have a few questions maybe some of you could answer for me here:

1.  I get messages all the time:

     "Error accessing the Mobileminer API (500)" & "Error accessing the Mobileminer API (400)"
     "Error parsing the Coinchoose.com JSON API"
     "Error parsing the Coinwarz.com JSON API"

2.  Also, I cannot get Multiminer (backend bfgminer) to mine on any GPU card at a decent hashrate without totally crashing my computer using the     
     following scrypt parameters (but I have no problem using cgminer).

     -I 20,16,13 -w 128,128,128 --shaders 2048,1024,512 --auto-fan --auto-gpu --temp-target 85,75,75 --temp-cutoff 95,80,80 --no-submit-stale
     --lookup-gap 2 --gpu-platform 0 --gpu-threads 1 --scan-time 60 --disable-rejecting

3.  Can anyone tell me how the GPU's in Multiminer are enumerated?  Is the first one listed device 0? or is there no order.  If I type
    -S opencl-auto -d?  What is returned first is a Radeon R9 290X, then second a Radeon 7870, then third a Radeon 7770 - I would presume this
    would be devices 0,1,2 in that order shown, the same way as GPU-Z, but not Speccy which lists them as Radeon 7870, Radeon 7770,
    Radeon R9 290X - so now I am confused as to how bfgminer detects them and Multiminer lists them.

4.  I can't seem to get remoting to work - I click on the remote computer node, but nothing displays in the main window.  If I go to the remote
    computer via Teamviewer, there is a message in the running instance of Multiminer on the (remote) machine stating "Multiminer remoting signature
    verification failed."

5.  Lastly, my biggest problem seems to be when either an exception occurs in either bfgminer or Multiminer and because of the JIT debugger I must
    answer with a "Details", "Continue", or "Quit" button - I don't have this issue in say GUIMiner or GUIMiner-Scrypt.  So is there something that I am
    doing incorrectly here, or is there no centralized app specific error handler?

Answers to any of the above are GREATLY appreciated.
