a while later and without doing ANYTHING, MONA has returned to work on the auto switch, and I repeat I have not touched anything, nor restarted the computer nor the program nor the rig.

Sometimes this happens and I stop for a miner, I had to create a rule that if a miner is 2 minutes standing, start mining. But these random failures are very annoying. Thank goodness that the video is to show that I'm not crazy.

This has to do with the Pools you're Mining on, not Awesome Miner.

I have thrown out Mining Dutch, because that Pool Sucks. I have no Answer till now, about the Problems with Mining Dutch/Awesomeminer. Every other Pool i use, is running smooth.....and if they change anything, they notice it.

I vote for windows.

Then don't buy the card. We're not going to develop windows drivers for the card.



I should clarify that doesn’t mean you can’t use it in Windows with other bitstreams from other devs that choose to support it (I’ll be supporting Windows where it makes sense). But, you really are doing yourself a disservice doing windows and running expensive FPGAs to mine.

On Mods and Credit Cards, work is still being done, but we should proceed under the assumption we cant take direct credit cards, since all the processors have essential decided Crypto isn’t a real industry.

So there will be not Windows Support, means we should go build that rigs with Linux?

Personally i'm not a Fan of Linux. My Windows GPU Machines running smooth and much faster than Linux without Problems, means: They make practically more Money. Just reduced them to everything needed.

So my Question is: How to Bind that FPGA Machines into Awesome Miner? My whole Operation is controlled by Awesomeminer and the Awesomeminer-Agent is running on Windows. And Awesomminer is the best Controlling Program for bigger MiningOperations so far.

Any Idea?

I don't know any other Devs till now, wich would do Windows Drivers. And i think, not to do Windows support, is not that good decision. With WIndows Drivers, you would reach FAR MORE Buyers....and you won't support the Centralization-Problem with it, as you will with Linux. (Thats for granted)

I cannot change my whole running Operation into another System, only because i will start to fit in FPGA's over a while. That would cost me a lot time and money.

And if i start to build in FPGAs from you Guys, that mean, i have to create two different Controlling-Systems......wich can get very tricky, if we reach a bigger amount of FPGAs. But it WILL increase the amount of Work.

Why you decided to not do Windows drivers?

@GPUHoarder

What Diservice can it be, to run a FPGA on Windows? Why should it be different like with GPUs, wich run a lot faster in Windows than in Linux? And thats a prooven Fact from my Side.

Isn't this a Question of how the Driver would be implemented and how much Influence Windows gets at it?

Me personal, never had ANY advantage over Windows, with other Operatingsystems. For me, this outspoken Advantages only are Myths after more than 15 Years IT. But clearly, this depends on the aereas of using.

I have to talk to Awesome Miners devs, to see...if they know solutions.

Thank you for your work and also the no BS, honest assessment.
IMHO, there is an error in your working when you assume that a 50% increase in hash-rate will not change profits much. A 50% increase will decrease overall profitability by 33% per hash. So the estimate on Tribus at $41 per card will actually be $28.
Also in your working I think you have split the profit half-way between DNR (33) and KEYCO(46). Whereas their network hash-rate is 439 MH/S and 113 MH/s respectively, and hence the actual projection should $36, further adjusted down by 33% to $24.
To me its  clear the once mainstream mining oriented FPGA card are available, that will be the future as regards to non-ASIC space.

This is pretty accurate which is why on the website it says that for longer term profit projections, a value of $20-$30 USD/day, per card, is a realistic estimate.



Hi Whitefire,
will there be a more specific "how to" for the Hardware-Optimizations, wich have to be done to the Boards, to get full speed?

I just started mining last october, and hooked. my 8 rig gpu was fun, but with forks in the future, and increased comp from asics, the writing is on the wall.
even just 1 of these would do what my rig does, and then some....

Im interested as well..still gotta keep up on all the reading.. so much here, so good.

There is Nothing writen on the Wall. Not at this Time.

There will be new GPUs, probably whole new Kinds of Chips anyway.

You know.....we can not know, what we don't know.
But WHAT we know is, that this Cryptoworld is in its early Stages. Miner like us will be needed, in the Future. Without Mining, no Transfers and no Coins.

Proof of Stake is not the last Kind of Wisdom, neither is Asic.

And sometimes i have the impresson, that there are People, who think, that a private Miner can't buy Asics or Fpgas, or even new GPUs. And we all know, that this is not true.

Bitmain will get serious Competition this Year....and this is only the Beginning. The Prices of Asics will go down by that.....like in every Competition.

And if an FPGA only does half of the Effect on a b-chain compared to that actual Asic.......there is no Asic Domination anymore, because the People will consider economicly....and FPGA has this wider Range and longer Lifepan, because of its Flexibility.

Such a Machine will run, as long as it makes PLUS. And if i can change the Algo, the Plus will be much higher for a longer Time. And this is the Same for GPUs.
 am curious, what kind of GPUs will hit the Market in the Future.

Registered and ready, getting tired of Bitmain monopoly company.

Well said! But you forgot: Their Business Behavior. If they would be a normal Shop in your Town, it would be allready have closed.

Hi All.


Hi Cryptofarmer,
i have a huge Problem with your Pool using Awesome Miner.

If i, lets say, mine Neoscrypt with round about 50 Machines, your Dashboard is only showing 20 to 30 of them, and half of them as Dead.

BUT: on the real Desktops, they are mining and finding accepted shares ALL THE TIME! Everything is running quite well.

And this happens with nearly ALL algos on my Machines, mining on your Pool.


Awesome Miner reports: "No Accepted Shares found in 3 Minutes", wich my Miners on the Console proof wrong.

If i check that with all Machines on another Pools, with same Algo, everything is absolutly working fine!

If you like, i can document this, cause this Problem is to reproduce everytime with ease. In the Moment i'm not mining on your Pool, because of this.


Can you please declare this to me? Is there anything i can do? Other Thing: why can't i view Poolstats of Mimning Dutch on Awesomeminer, like on every other Pool? Miningpool Hub works quite fine, with same Settings on Username.

Thank you for Help!
I the meantime, i switched off your Pool in Awesome Miner, cause it has cost me a lot money till now.
The Numbers aren't correct and something is wrong with the stettings of this Pool. Hope this can be solved.

Well I would use it if it worked.

Either sgminer crashes or I have restricted permission.  Plus sent an email for help this morning and still haven't heard back.

Just read the Helpsection.

This Program is AWESOME! I love it!

Re: Bytom Mining - ASIC algorithm now cracked by GPU miners? Big profits?
by
QiaMiner
on 28/05/2018, 20:15:54 UTC
Does anyone have a translation of the uupool linked page about GPU mining and if the Google translation of the page is correct? I'm currently away from my PC right now and my Chinese isn't good enough to translate what's written in the page you linked. I'm trying to access the Google translate site on mobile but it redirects me to the app that isn't capable of translating the whole thing.

Otherwise, it's quite interesting that someone managed to crack the Bytom algo. I suspected it was minable by regular GPUs when I found the B3s were powered by Sophon chips, but now I guess we have a confirmation. I wonder if this'll have a large impact on existing B3 miners now- it shouldn't be too big of a deal considering the B3s should still mine much faster than any GPUs that are capable of mining Bytom.

If a 1060 and a 1050ti is hashing 265h/s and the b3 is hashing 780h/s then no its not faster than the gpus. It would be marginally more energy efficent though but not a whole lot. I'm gonna assume the 1060 is doing 60% of that 265h/s that puts the 1060 at about 160h/s. 780/160=4.9 1060s. 1060s seem to be reasonably energy efficient so without knowing anything at all lets assume 120w per card.. 600w total vs 376w.

The question I have is if these really are ASICs built for an algorithm thats supposedly built for ASICs.. why isn't it substantially more efficient like normal ASICs that were built for algos that weren't designed to be on ASICs? I feel like they're probably more powerful and they're redirecting the majority of the computational power of the device somewhere else but getting the miner to pay for the hardware an power they're siphoning off for personal profit.

Or maybe i'm just dumb Tongue

You would be happy to hear, that my 1060s (P106-100) only consume at maximum Load 80 w per peace. Normally they run at arount 65 to 75 depends on Algo.

Hi There!  Wink @patrike

I need Help. Normally i'm used to find my mistakes by myself, but with this, i'm getting nearly crazy.

If i self define rules of behavior for my Mining rigs, in Awesomeminer (5.01) (50 till now)

-> they don't apply. Its like, they aren't there.

Quote
Check Statistics: Less or equal than 220000 (kH/s)
Detect Pool: tribus
Match all
---------------------
apply clocking Profile: tribus tune

I also tried only a Test Notification but, based on detect pool: tribus:

till now, only two of my Rigs, all with the same Windows and setup, react to any of the rules.

Also the Restart Computer rules don't apply.....but i get the normal notifications like: Mining Process not running and so on.

If the notification is comming, normally i woul say, the rules work.

But they don't.

Please help with this
