I dont think its an issue with zen because i can still mine with one of my rigs. Which is also on nvoc and running just fine.

Having some issues with zm miner and zencash on 2 of my rigs. using miningspeed.com for the pool and port 3062. Rigs work fine for ZCL but when switched to ZEN i recieve an authorization failure notification. I mirrored what was done on my other rig which doesn't have this issue and still see the same message before the terminal shuts down. I would appreciate some help if anyone can offer it. Currently using 19_1.4 on all 3 rigs.

Im also having some issues. I tried to make a deposit into Bitfinex from the wallet and the transaction hash as well as the coins associated with the transaction are missing. Any advice would be appreciated.

Any idea when that bug will be fixed?

Any reason im noticing roughly a 10% loss across the board in mining rewards based on hashrate. Ive checked with other miners listed on the pool. It seems like the expected payout is about 8% off.

I do see the utility in both viable forks. One is a low transaction load network with higher fees but insanely stable community consensus on the code base. Cash is definitely more adventurous and willing to sacrifice some stability and community consensus to compete with litecoin as a cheap fast day to day currency.

This question depends on two things.
First if you want to be involved in the crypto market is it for profit seeking, growth of the network or both?
Second do you feel very assured that the money you invest in the crypto market will be a worthwhile investment, i.e. is the risk worth the reward?

My experience involved buying cards to mine, in order to hedge my bet against a collapse of the crypto market earlier this year. I still feel that purchasing the equipment is the safer bet in the sense that you still have a physical product that has some utility.

If you are tech savvy, don't mind spending large portions of your free time working on your rigs and properly cooling them, you will have a fun project on your hands. Some people advocate away from people mining because an increase in network difficulty reduces rewards but i prefer an army of hobby miners controlling the network than a bunch of render farm giants moonlighting on the crypto networks.
