Is there a way to get the list of all available coins via API?

I have been developing it for personal use for about a year but eventually thought why not sharing it.


Sorry, not gonna happen. WPF framework it is written on has not been ported to linux.

Mining Station is mining algorithm autoswitching solution based on popular online service whattomine.com. All you need to do is to tell it what coins are to be mined by a rig, what are their hashrates, energy consumption etc. Then you will be able to calculate profit individually for each rig, check which machines are online, what are the coins they mine and switch coins manually as well as automatically on multiple machines at once.

The application is free and open source. You don't have to edit config files meticulously, instead you can tune almost everything via neat and practical GUI.

Mining Station is not for greedy people but for lazy ones. Autoswitch doesn’t necessarily have profitability advantage, it simply makes life easier. Mining Station has a built-in back testing capability, you can accumulate daily price data and later see a chart that shows how the autoswitch performed compared to mining any single coin. The autoswitch averages on long enough periods and because of its random nature - one day it guesses the most profitable coin correctly, the other day it gives false detection and the rig mines below the maximum potential profit for some time - the autoswitch's profit might be even lower than mining a single coin at times.

Mining Station is portable application. To install it simply copy the Mining Station.exe file to the folder of your choice. When migrating to a different machine simple copy this folder. Workers.cfg contains the rig configuration templates and WtmSettings.cfg contains app's settings.

Claymore, please add option to disable asm kernels. I have a mixed 470 4gb rig with two HIS cards, they tend to fail on asm kernels with AMD blockchain drivers on any of your miners. On Ethash miner, however, I can disable asm kernels for these cards, but as of now there's no such option on CryptoNight miner.

How does then "Inactive" and "No market" differ from "No available stats"?

fredeq Could you elaborate please on what does "status" mean in JSON? Few days ago my scripts started throwing errors on coins that have "No available stats" status.

For instance, Bipcoin's JSON
http://whattomine.com/coins/171.json

responds with

{"errors":["Could not find active coin with id 171"]}

But the web calculator is apparently up and running:
http://whattomine.com/coins/171-bip-cryptonight

Yeah, all coins in one request that would be great. As of now I have to request one coin at a time with custom hashrate and this hits "429 Too many requests" error sometimes. What's the server policy btw?

Also, is it possible to include the default calculator's hashrate into each coin's JSON? This way we could download the whole bunch in one setting and recalculate custom hashrates locally by simple multiplier. This could alleviate server stress as well.

It's up now but BTC reports null as 24h value.

How do I calculate the minimal order amount for a given currency pair?

I have found experimentally that there's a limit below which I can't buy or sell but it seems to be different for different currency pairs. For instance on USDT_ETH my orders hit it at 0.000003, USDT_ETC is 0.000006, USDT_XMR is 0.000002. If my buy order is below this amount I get 422 (Unprocessable Entity) error. I haven't found anything about order limits in official documentation. I want to be able to evaluate the order's amount to be correct before I place it.

Claymore, please consider adding rejects/incorrect shares per card stats to your miners. The recent addition of per card shares is nice but it would be really valuable to be able to spot the culprit card that causes bad shares without browsing through logs meticulously.

Is there a way to fetch 3 or 7 days average values of difficulty/profitability? I see them in web interface but cannot find them in JSON.

V5.0 fixed "GPU returned incorrect data" on the card connected to monitor on my 290/280 rig. Good.

I'm having issues with -di key under v3.0. When I try to use any card set other than default e.g. -di 0, -di 01, whatever - the miner cannot connect to pool displaying this error:

ZEC: Stratum - connecting to 'us1-zcash.flypool.org' <192.99.160.185> port 3333
ZEC: Stratum - Connected (us1-zcash.flypool.org:3333)
ZEC: Authorization failed
: {"id":2,"result":null,"error":[20,"InvalidzCashaddress!"]}

My login data in config.txt are valid, the miner logs in normally if I drop -di key from arguments. Tested that on two different rigs - still the same.

PS Just tried to run it bypassing config.txt with direct arguments in command line - works like it should.

Why doesn't Zcash miner show which card generated rejected share in stats or log files? That is an extremely helpful feature of ETH miner when it comes to troubleshooting overclocking. Now when it freezes - go figure which one is guilty.

On the other hand ethminer takes about a minute to initialize on some of my machines, apart from generating DAG files. Zcash miner is much faster in this respect. Why such a difference?

I'm having "GPU returned incorrect data!" on my mixed 290/280 rig. Despite errors galore the rig gives only about 1% of rejected shares on the pool side even though the log is all red at times. None of the cards is overclocked, they are undervolted however with AB. What might be the cause of it?

How can I restart zcashgpuclient once in a while in Ubuntu? I freezes every now and then but when I restart it, it's fine. I want to automate this procedure.

I've written a bash script like this


But the problem is that the killall command dosen't work for me. It actually kills the process if I execute it manually in another terminal window but it does nothing if it is run from the script.

Any Linux savvy guys to shed some light?
