which is the maxium Celsius temperature (°C) that bailkal con  works?

40C is what the site says but mines been running about 45C with 30% fan for pretty much its entire life and its been fine. The cooler the better though, sometimes the hashrate is affected for certain algos if the temp is too high. Ive mostly been on Nist5 which is lower power = lower temps.

Pool having issues? Don't see any hash on skein, qubit, or quark

I am also having some issues connecting to the pools this morning. They've been appearing dead for the last 6 or so hours. Intermittently I'll be able to see NIST5 but I don't stay connected long.

Did you guys see on Baikal's site they are doing buy one get one free for the Baikal N and Baikal B? Looks like those are going obsolete. X10 was definitely the right choice.

can anyone who's upgraded comment on starpool profit? how is profit switching with the 2 new algos and how are payouts?
I havent upgraded yet, still mining verge on suprnova.

I have upgraded and am currently mining @ Starpool. Profit switching works however they do not have a X11Gost pool. All you need to do is add Nist5=1 to yuor password to enable the switching. Work fine tho. Mines been going between Qubit and Nist5 mostly

It seems to me that StarPool algo switching is just time base rotation and not base on profitable switching.  Is your setting like below? May I know is what is the 1 being set for Nist5=1 mean? 

c=LTC,quark=1,qubit=1,myr-gr=1, Nist5=1,skein=0.5

It seems not so profitable on StarPool when I use this algo switching.

thanks,


Those numbers dictate the weighting the Pool uses when determining which pools to show you as Alive. If you have Nist5=1.2, it a multipler for avg mBTC/day. So say Nist5 is earning .002 per day and Qubit is earning .002 per day. If you have NIst5 as 1.2 then its effective Btc per day is .0024 Where as Qubit would be 1* .002 or .002. I use this flag and favor Nist5 more because it draws less power. Therefore even if Nist5 and Qubit are both supposed to make .002 really Nist5 would make more once you subtract electric costs. For instance Skein is .5 because the X10 only has 5GH/s of hashing power but online it shows Skein as earning .0035 per day which would be true if our machines could hit 10GH\s.

Does that help?

OMGGGG BAIKALSS X10 ARE MAKING MOOOOONEEEY$$$$$$$$$ AND OTHER NEW ALGOS WILL KEEP THEM MAKING IT. MOST IMPORTANT, THEY JUST KEEP COOL, AND SILENT, AS ANY OTHER PC IN THE HOUSE....NOBODY KNOW YOU HAVE A DEVICE THAT IS MAKING YOUR LIFE EASIER, AS LONG AS YOU CAN MAKE THE MONEY TO PAY FOR IT! :-) THANK YOU BAIKAL!

Wow teach me master. I can hear mine from ground to first floor at 70% (26 degrees and pi around 40 Celsius).

Wtf

That’s odd because my x10 is 30% fan and is no louder than the ac in my room. Temps are 38c on the boards and 45c on the pi. I do also have it next to my ac which turns in occasionally

Finally! got help from someone.

The solution is:

Remove all the cookies from the browser (Chrome/safari/Firefox) you use for the Baikal webinterface.
Restart you browser.

Then you will be able to see the new algo's in the dropdown menu!

Im dying laughing is that really all it was?

Is there a solution yet for people who just get the 5 old algo's? Flashed twice already..


Hey, I'm in the same boat. I only see the original 5 algos. When I plugged in my card to be flashed I see two drives. BOOT D:\
 and E:\. The first time I tried to flash to the BOOT D:\ drive which appeared to work initally but when I put the flash drive back I only saw the 5. I tried to reflash again this time directing to the E:\ drive but that gives access denied.

Can anyone confirm if we are flashing a card with existing firmware which drive should we flash? Also, should the card be formatted and set up as one drive prior to flashing?

i think baikal miner is a big scam,  but its a long term scam that's why,  a lot of people be deceived in it.

How? They sold you hardware and you received it as promised...
You think Baikal is the only company that "promises" something and then underdelivers? How about Samsung, apple etc?
This thread is getting way too boring and with only useless comments from useless trolls.
There used to be actually good info here.

About your problem, if your XVG wallet doesn't sync, try to download the nightly shapshot:
https://verge-[Suspicious link removed]/down
You will find the whole blockchain.
Backup your wallet, close qt, download and install that archive, restore your wallet (if needed, if you didn't delete wallet.dat you could skip this step) and you should be ok.
At least, it worked for me.
Good luck. :-)

Hi, is it still around $18/ day with X10? Or my calculation is wrong?
Based on what whattomine says?

You're looking at verge which has been having some network issues. So im not sure if thats valid but someone else with more info should answer.

Just wondering is it possible to sleep with a Giant next to you ?
basically how loud is it?

Yep you can.. I sleep next to 2 of them.. Fan on 20%.. they are as loud as a moderate heat pump.

I would say no unless you sleep like a rock. I have them on 70% fan speed (to keep them @21°c) and hear them from ground floor to the first floor.

Mines 30% its as loud as an ac unit. I sleep with it not problem at all but I also have mild tinnitus. To keep it cool I have it in front of a window so its running 28C

Anyone else here refuse to pay 4x what these miners sold for when they were released?  Let alone 10x???  I've seen these for sale anywhere from $4K to $12K when they originally were released for around $1200.  There's no way people should be paying such ridiculous prices.

You might be speaking to the wrong audience. The majority of people posting here already own the machines and didn’t pay anywhere near those prices. If you pay $12k now you’re an idiot. Unless you really think the new algos will not completely destroy the difficultly of coins for whatever algo once they’re released and the $400/day you could potentially earn once those come out will last more than a week then I could see an argument for paying $12k. But that won’t happen

Damn seems that they got many new units ready for sell or maybe already sold.

Dif increased hard this week, holy shit.

The people who bought in late for 7k$ probably crying.
Everyone here tried to warn them. As is it now, you'd need a whole year to pay that off and you know there is no chance that you'll be making what you are making now by the time that year ends. The price was all Baikal cashing in after pumping the hardware's value by initially releasing low numbers. Anyone that paid $7,000 and didn't flip it immediately on ebay is in for a rough time. I paid $2500 for my x10. It paid for itself already, however, I would not even pay that again at this point.

Yeah if those algo's dont come out soon might be time to unload for 7K on ebay.

I know im just jumping in here but i thought id add some interesting things Ive noticed with my x10. There are times when I initally turn it on and it just loads the miner that the hash rate will for each board spikes up to 20GH/s for 60 GH/s total. This has happened a few times. Ill try to get a screeen shot the next time I can but if thats true these machines are very powerful and they do really underclock them.

Hey guys, just thought I would post this response from Baikal. I asked about the new Algos.


HI,

There will be the new algos for X10,but we haven't got the information yet.

Please waiting for our future announcement.

Best,

Baikal

here are my results from mining dutch to 12 hours.

I've been using multi switch my-groestl only 0.00023948

Left the pool again. The profitability indicator at the front and rear is not correct.

The last two days has been the worst I have ever seen. I am considering switching up if it doesn't improve myself. I believe a main money maker ALQO has been hit hard recently and difficulty has sky rocketed. I also noticed just some terrible luck I found almost none of the easy blocks throughout the day, I knew of the risks of a luck based pool and it has been good up until the last few days. I believe difficulty on most the coins has risen and it may only get worse. I give it a few more days to improve, let's all hope for the new algos soon so we can spread out the miners a bit more.

Yeah I’ve noticed the same. Everything is way down the last couple days. I’ve never seen nicehash pay out only .002 btc for quark before.

On your last point, does anyone have an idea when those algo’s might be release? I was thinking maybe around the same time the next batch ships which i think was end of feb? Also makes sense with the Chinese New Year ending

Hi Guys

It is normal that my X10 produce all these discarded?

https://imgur.com/a/xlhvI

Thanks

Yes.


I'm not so sure this is normal. On Nicehash and Mining Dutch my discarded is significantly less than Starpool. I have a a ton of discarded shares from star pool ( 2-3x the number accepted). Is this an issue that should be brought up to their Dev team?

somebody can tell how much coins you get for coin shield XSH.

That would also be interesting

Hello, I was (solo) mining XSH up to 2-3 days ago.
I was earning about 900-1000 per day, something less, something more.
Unfortunately, now difficulty is higher, but I will try again.


Hello,

which pool you took down shield at. Mining Dutch?
If so, what did you enter at port difficulty.

Here is someone who can tell me if it is possible to switch automatically between coins on Mining Dutch depending on profitability.

If so, what has to be set at Baikal.

mining dutch has a multiport server which automatically switches you to the most profitable coin but only on one algo - go the 'getting started' page and you will see the url - just input the varidiff stratum and your worker into your baikal setup page and you are good to go

Just curious, what are the daily earnings like from Mining Dutch? I saw for Quark right now its looked like it was paying .00075 BTC/Ghs which seems unreal to me. That means with 10Gh/s from the X10 thats .0075 BTC

Hey just wanted to share my recent results from minining on Starpool off and on this weekend.  I've had it pointed to starpool for about the last ~22 hours and I've earned just about .0032 btc. At one point it was on track to earn nearly .001/hr. The pool definitely pays out in bursts and sometimes Nicehash may seem higher temporaility but I think after a week I will see this paying out more overall than nicehash but will keep you all posted.
