But i dont know what wrong, mining MCT on gos.cx pool with 5x RX570 ( 15 MH ), and base on https://www.coincalculators.io/coin.aspx?crypto=mct-mining-calculator i got about 70 MCT per day. but actually i only got about 1.4 MCT/hour = 33.6 MCT per day. This is very huge different.\
Anyone same with me?

Yes.  See posts from the last few days about the same issue with coins using the Lyra2z algorithm.

Actual hashrate on the rig is 38.6 mh/s
Oh and referring to my previous post of making less than the calculator says, im now down to under 3 GIN, when I should be getting close to 4.5... absolute bullshit.


Thanks for the feedback. I checked 4 calculators on Lyraz2 with 111mh/s hash value and values were like 4.5-4.7 GIN per day.  Either your real production is way off cuz of sth else (pool issue etc) or the calcs are way off.

3rd option is harsh truth: 111mh/s makes 3ish GIN a day currently.

Which pool is that?

I'm having the same issue of lower than expected earnings.  I suspect the issue is with the Lyra2z algo, not a specific coin or mining pool.  Last week, I started out mining GIN on Angry Pool.  Then, I switched to mining MANO on Gos.cx.  Now, I switched to mining XZC (which has a higher market cap) on Mining Pool Hub.  While the calculators estimated I'd earn a little more than 5 XZC per day, I've earned less than 3 in the last 24 hours.  I've had similarly disappointing results with the other Lyra2z coins on the other pools.  Maybe it's time to go back to mining ETH...

What does it mean that Lyra2z is a "chained algo" (Blake256 first round and Lyra2 final round)?  Is this throwing off the calculators?

Guys, how much is a fee for this miner?

I am mining gin on bsod and get around 1 coin from 33MH, however, I am supposed to get around 1.4. So, is the fee here so high or bsod stealing part of mining?
Author says about 3% devfee
In real life your estimated earnings will be lower around 20% of what you expect  by calculator



Confirmed, my shares are roughly 25% lower than expected, I took 3 days of almost non-interrupted mining (few hours downtime on one of my 4 rigs).
Results are as follows:
Rig 1: 12x MSI Gaming X 570 - reported hashrate 39 mh/s (HiveOS)
Rig 2: 8x Sapphire Nitro 570 - reported hashrate 24.5 mh/s (EthOS)
Rig 3: 6x mixed Rx 480 -reported hashrate 19.2 mh/s (HiveOS)
Rig 4: 6x Radeon Vega 64 - reported hashrate 35 mh/s (ubuntu 16.04, 4 hours downtime)

Total Hashrate, 117,5 mh/s, let's say my average was 110 mh/s, then the calc says I should have earned 4.6 GIN.
Here are my results from Angrypool.
https://imgur.com/d7PZbPg - Hashrate reported by Angrypool, pretty much inline with my miners' reported hashrates
https://imgur.com/kAUH6Zt - Payout of 3.6 GIN which is ~27% under the expected 4.6 GIN...and the difficulty has GONE UP over the last 24 hours.

I don't have rejected shares and when I mine ETH or XMR I am usually only 3-4% under the calculator's predictions.

The same happened over the last 3 days, considering that Angrypool has a fee of only 0.5% I think its pretty much confirmed, the calculator is wrong and miners are being drawn to the network by inaccurate profit predictions. Making it a lose-lose situation for all of us.




Has anyone figured out what is causing this problem?  I have five rigs with mostly Sapphire RX 580s.  I am using tdxminer, integrated with HiveOS, to mine two different coins on two separate pools.  I am not earning anything close to what the calculators estimated.  Is there a problem with the Lyra2z algo?
