Time for an Algo swap.
Skein and Myriad-Groestl will be mineable on the BAIKAL Giant X10 shortly.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2336088.0
We most definitely are talking about potential algo swaps. We would love to hear peoples suggestions for other algos.Skein and Myriad-Groestl will be mineable on the BAIKAL Giant X10 shortly.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2336088.0
I recommend sticking with the algos that have already been proven to be asic resistant....ie Lyra2rev2, ethash etc.

Skein uses about 80% TDP on my GPUS. I think Scrypt was at 100% when i pushed them. Either way, its the middle of summer here, wont be running skein until winter, even then its a toss up.
I always thought there was specialized hardware for Groestl, turns out, i was right. I kind of forgot it was a Sha-3 candidate. Its cool reading some of the academic white papers on Groestl.
Looks like Skein is the only algo that doesnt require specialized hardware =\.

I am glad the Qubit ASIC topic has come up again. Ive been mining Qubit for ages and had to finally shut down my rig. Around July 1st the asics were released and my profitability just tanked.
I understand ASICS are a part of this world but I am still a simple miner with a single rig in my basement. I love mining and working on my rig but there is no incentive to do so when I am competing against ASICS.
why shut down rig? Why not re-task to another algorithm? If the mining isn't better for you elsewhere because your rig is so small, you can stay on Qubit like a true DigiByte knight. I understand ASICS are a part of this world but I am still a simple miner with a single rig in my basement. I love mining and working on my rig but there is no incentive to do so when I am competing against ASICS.
I have looked at the others, Sha-256 / Scrypt / Qubit are out the window because of ASICS, Skein is incredibly power hungry and hard on my GPUs ( tons more heat, fans run alot harder ) and Groestl is possibly an option but it doesnt run as cool as qubit, uses more electricity, i cant undervolt as much for power efficiency, plus the difficulty is high enough that I cant cover my electricity bills.
Id mine if i can at least cover the electricity bill but i shutdown the rig because if I mine i want to support Digibyte and right now it isnt worth it to use a very power hungry algo and its summer so I have a hard enough time cooling it as is.

Hi All,
What algos do you think should be replaced? Which ones do you think we should add?
Is it possible to just add more algos and keep the existing ones or do we have to stay at 5?
There seems to be barely anyone mining skein and qubit now has asics so in my opinion, those are the first to be replaced.

Any miners out there? Qubit difficulty has been shooting up a ton. How are the other algos doing? I miss digistats =\ .
I cant figure out if its all the new GTX 1080s coming out or theres more big mining farms pointing at DGB.

Ive stuck with mining Qubit as well. The blocks Factory used to be pushing almost 3GH but since the price has gone down its fluctuated alot. There is one big player with over 2GH of power. I really wish i knew what they were running...
The past 2 months of mining have been pretty difficult, even though we have 5 algos, I only have 1 small rig so the big guns still sway the difficulty a ton. It is nice to see Digispeed working so well though.

Can someone take a look at the network difficulty / hash rate for Digistats.info? At least for qubit i believe the data to be incorrect. I am pretty sure the graphs havent updated in a few days. I dont follow it every day so im not 100% certain but the qubit hash rate has a solid straight line which i know is incorrect.
Thanks!

Re: ★★DigiByte|极特币★★[DGB]✔$250k Investment, DigiByte Gaming, #DigiByteTip
That's wild! Thanks for the tip. Someone else mentioned them again not too long ago on my forum and I appreciate you confirming that.
Cheers
Edit: btw, did you finally end up having any luck with Craptsy?
No I never did, Once I saw they weren't updating after the hard fork I then tried to get out with BTC but at that point everything was going south and things were shutdown a few weeks later. I should have gotten some out through another coin but I was stubborn and didn't want to lose half my DGB. In the end I lost all of it. I guess that the bright side is that I involuntarily took out several million out of the DGB ecosystem =). I had all my eggs in cold wallets but I had some on the exchange that needed to be traded to pay for bills / rig debt etc and that's what I lost so...live and learn I guess.

Im going to use these figures, pulled out of a post a little way back by a well know member of our community. Im going to consider that these figures are in the ball park of correctness but it does not particularly matter for the purpose of this exercise.
5000 DGB of mining
SHA-256 ASIC using 2.4KWh
Scrypt ASIC using 7.5KWh
GPU using 9.9KWh
Then using some special magic, Im going to make SHA size of the network just over 4 times bigger and the Scrypt size about 1.3 times bigger. Abracadabra, they are all on an equal footing and the DigiByte network is considerably stronger than it was before I used the special magic. Im going to need to use a bit more magic again when the latest ASIC technology hits mining.
I know I dont really have any special magic to use, thats why knights are so important!
We could follow the other suggestion that has been made to tackle this issue and do away with the ASIC part of the network and replace it with other algorithms but I will argue that this would require more hard forks and would actually leave our network weaker than it is already.

I don't want to get entangled in this too much but I just wanted to mention that I've been able to undervolt my 280x and mine qubit to get about 11 MH/s and that only runs at about 150 watts according to my Kill-a-watt. 11 Mh/s is roughly about 5k dgb per day which will put my 150 watts at about 3.6kw per day. Still not as efficient a sha256 asic but a lot less than the 9.9kwh mentioned above. I am guessing that's for either Skein or Scrypt on a GPU.
Great to see your presense Kayahoga, as always. Those are some very impressive results indeed! Let me guess, a dual card NVIDIA rig?
Phenomenal.
Actually its not NVIDIA, its a single AMD MSI 280x. My "gaming" rig. Undervolting is the key, you cant do it with every card which is why I went with the MSI 280x. Back when I had my rigs once I figured out how to properly undervolt I was saving about $50 a month in electricity with only sacrificing a small amount of hashing power.
Wow! That's more than double the hashrate I've ever seen published for a 280x ( http://asistec-ti.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=25&t=38 ). Incredible. And you're still mining and those are current rewards?
EDIT: if you post your configuration, I'll add it to the list.
The magic isn't in the config, its the new optimized miner. Check out the miner's from nicehash. They keep up on all the latest builds and optimized kernels.
Either way...I use --intensity 18 --worksize 64 -g 2 A 280x is one of the few cards that should always have a -g 2, my engine stays at 1020 since I'm undervolting. I am pretty sure if I threw more juice at it I could go for 1100 and get close to 12 MH
Edit: Yes I'm still mining, just on my gaming rig with a single GPU, mining away today on my 280x

Although I had to sell my rigs I still have 1 graphics card left. I've been mining on it lately trying to grab as many DGB as I can =).
Whether or not people agree on a topic or not is irrelevant. One of the great things about DGB is that its a very professional coin, lets keep up the good work of having a very professional community!
