Re: [Mining OS] SimpleMining.net - Easy to use GPU MINING Operating System
I tried searching but couldnt find. Probably bad bitcointalk search feature.
I have a rig with 4 x GTX 1060 and 2 x GTX 1070 (both EVGA). I have set core to 10 and memory to 1500. Wattage for 1060 set at 85 and 1070 set at 100. Mining ETH claymore.
The 1060s are mining at 24 MHS. 1070s are mining at 32 MHS. Total 160 MHS. But once in every minute, they drop by 3-4 MHS total. Makes me feel if I am overclocking too much and undervolting too much. They have not crashed yet (running only for last couple of hours). Any thoughts? Is +1500 memory too high? Should I reduce it? But I see lots of posts that EVGA 1060 is very much capable of 25 MHS and 1070s at 34 MHS. No idea how to hit that level.

With the diff is increasing day by day, the profit is decreased up to 20% / month , and you will get few dollar / day
the difficulty is way down -it must be part of the '10 minute block' adjusting still... thats goodYeah, I'm just hoping the price will recover. It's a crypto graveyard out there...
What do you mean by long time? The slow bleed of alts because of BTCs uptrend to 20K put them all lower than what they are now in November/December..
Never had an asic before.
How often should you restart your Antminer (even if its running fine without issues)? And how often do you shutdown it down and let it cool down for 5-10 mins?

A3 is for sale again at 11PM EST
It is 11:25 and they still have it in stock and have not sold out. Do they want to dump a ton !! ??
There are another 3 timeslots for sale: 2AM, 5AM and 8AM EST.
I guess people are hesitating to buy these Sia Coin miners now.
I put one in the shopping cart and submit the order but I eventually did not buy, so my order has expired.
It is still available.
They should have waited for 2 more weeks. Batch 1 A3s will be mining more by then..

Re: Bitmain just announced the AntMiner A3 - 815GH/s Siacoin miner - Blake(2b)
so... a3 is a no go, I guess 
Long term, A3 can be expected to do "as well" as L3 & S9 are doing at the moment. L3 & S9 are in range of $250-350/mo at the moment. Currently, the A3 looks like it will be doing $30/day for the next 50 days or so then maybe $10/day after March. Still not bad.
Long term, if the project is successful, I see SC at $0.20-$0.60 range within 2-3 years. That part is speculation of course.
It depends on how many they sell on batch 2. If they sell same amount of batch 1, I am pretty sure it will be way better than $2.5. More like $15-$20 or better if sia stays at 0.03 to 0.04.
Um....ok.....if you say so. 
Say there are 10K miners fighting for 144 blocks a day and make $40 worth coins a day. 20k miners will make $20. Why do you think I am wrong? Lol
Re: Bitmain just announced the AntMiner A3 - 815GH/s Siacoin miner - Blake(2b)
I just ran my first 24 hr period on siamining, and payout is right at 1000 SC.
Whats the probability of finding a block at the current difficulty if I were to solomine with the A3? Would it be worth a shot?

Simple probability. Your chances are 1 in 10,000.

Diff is supposed to go down to adjust to 10 min block time
I have no idea why hash rate would go down from 8400 to 7900. Bitmain testing batch 2?
Well, Friday deliveries can be powered up on Sunday
I am hoping it stays at 8000 THS or below. And after the difficulty adjusts to 10 min block times, we should be mining 2300 coins a day. Until batch 2 is out. Batch 2 should be equal or more than batch 1 quantity right? That chinese memo that some one posted about 5000 qty for batch 2 is BS?
Btw, what happened to the $800 coupons by bitmain for obeliskers?
Let's hope that the hash rate doesn't spike up another 200% before batch two gets shipped out otherwise I'll never make ROI...
Why would it unless someone or bitmain is yet to turn on their farm. Lol
Obelisk shipping theirs before batch 2 A3 Is zero chance. But they didnt sell a lot to push this 8000 THS network for anlther 200%.
Re: Bitmain just announced the AntMiner A3 - 815GH/s Siacoin miner - Blake(2b)
yeah, well as this point it is pure speculation.
however the drop in a3 profitability is staggering. I got L3's early on, and they were VERY profitable for a while, hasnt dropped nearly as fast as a3's....

What are you surprised about? You have to be happy that only 10K batch 1 A3 was sold.
If you didnt know this is how much you will be mining with a A3 on day 7 or later, you probably didnt do much research before buying
Read my other post about how difficulty will go down and how you will mine twice of what you are mining now
OK, so after reading all of the last bunch of pages.. I guess it was a good idea that I swapped the A3 I had for two S9's?
Considering that they are 980 USD now and profitability went down so drastic.
So on siamining.com it shows 1.35 SC per GH/day. = 1100 x .04 cents = 44.01 per day. Two S9's make about that too I guess :-)
And that profit level will drop even more. It is however not dropping as fast as the first couple days. WOW. I knew it would happen, but I didn't think it was going to be that quick.
Be happy though, as long as you are higher than 20 dollars like an S9 is bringing in, you are still ahead of the game. That is 0.7 SC per GH/Day.
Or hold onto your SC and become a millionaire when its worth more than 4 cents.
I am so glad I am out! Learnt a lot!
Foe next 45 days S9 makes $15.00 p/d versus A3 at $50.00 per day.Considering that they are 980 USD now and profitability went down so drastic.

lol thats what I'm trying to tell him , I have a bunch of s9s and difficulty went up a ton in jan they are making half what the made back in early jan lool
S9 might be better in the long run after the march batch of A3 is released but for now its better to have 1 A3 than two s9 lol
Can you guys show me how your A3 does $50 a day? I will look right now and get REAL numbers as I write this post.

Hash Price Report
The last block was at height 139,794. The current block reward is 160,205 SC. Based on this and on the current difficulty, miners are being paid 0.0133 SC/TH, which corresponds to about 1.15 SC/day per GH/s
1.15 * 815 = 937.25 * .04 ( Cents) 37.49
37.49 in bitcoin at 11000 BTC = .0034 BTC per day
I am doing .0021 per day per S9 X 2 for the trade i did = .0042 BTC per day for 2 S9
YES 1 A3 makes more than 1 S9 but for how long. That rate of decay on the 1.15 SC per GH/Day was ALOT higher only a few days before. The rate of decay has slowed, and will dropp more when next batch is online. In the interm of two weeks Assumed average of 30 per day after decay rate factored in is only a mere 10 dollars per day more than the S9. 14 days X 10 dollars is 140 dollars. YES more. But this will drop even more SOON. It was the best decision to drop the A3. I did it soon enough there was beleife that the A3 would be performing better than it was.
If it was so good, then why all of the sudden did so many come up for sale on the local classifieds? They are only 980 at bitmain now.
If it made 50 a day NOW, you would have an agrument. Redo your math and see what you are really making. YES I know SC price can go up, and it did for a bit while network hasrate looked like it leveled off, then network hashrate went back up a bit, and price fell. This means uncertanty. It would of been ok if there was no annoucement of the batch 2 at such a low price.
Besides I made 550 dollars the couple days that I had the A3 before it was gone. This is about 14 days at the current profitibility.
I wish you guys luck on it, I was hopeful too, I knew the risks, and the rate of drop in the profit was the key indicator to get out. This was backed with the Batch 2 release at the 980 price.
Before you start talking in dollars, you have to realize the whole market is in the gutter right now. You could buy 3 1080tis for the price of the A3 and be making under $20 a day. You need to set your expectations. Profitability on every single algorithm is cut almost in half right now. Anyone thinking they were going to buy an A3 and make 400 bucks a day for more than a few days was living a pipe dream. Lets also not forget that BCH has lost value since this sale, so you literally would have lost money hodling. $30 a day in the current market is not bad.
I agree $30 is not bad.
We are the worst block time territory. I belive each miner is making 40 sc an hour. Around 950 sc a day. If hash rate stays at 8000 TB until batch 2 is online, expect to make 2000 - 2500 a day once block times come back to normal which will be a week or 2 from now I guess. Just hang in there

Someone refresh me. For US customers on A3 Batch 1
Fedex - Lower Shipping Fee. Delivered on Day1. Did they charge customs for residential address? They also need SSN in the order itself, right?
UPS - Higher Shipping Fees. Charged $72 extra customs on delivery. No SSN needed.
DHL -?

?Did anyone order for $980. Also, can we order now and change address later? I will be moving by end of February..
Only to the same country via a support ticketIs there a deadline on when we can change? I still don't have the apartment number for my new address?
Can we trust them to even see the support ticket? If not, it will be a mess..
Look at that hashrate jump from 7033 to 7371 in 30 mins on a Sunday. And it keeps going up. I think they sold 15000 miners at least..

https://siamining.com/stats
Yeah, that's a very steep increase. What are you making a day. I'm doing 2650 SC/ per for x2 A3's lol.. what a drop
Should be down to 2450 now? lol
Also, the 139000 block fix will increase the difficulty before decreasing it. Meaning, block times will go up from here before stabilizing at 10 minutes. So expect more panic from A3 buyers. I guess by the time it gets to 10 minutes, A3 batch 2 might be here to screw us again. lol
Its 2577 now ha ha... going down every minute. Btw regarding the fork, I thought the 139000 fix is already done ? maybe im missing something here.
It was done. But it has not fixed the block times yet (we are at around 15-17 mins now). It will go worse (as worse as 30 mins) from here before getting back to 10 minutes.
What do you expect ? When the difficulty will go back to normal ?
I think its a complicated logic to say for sure. A couple of weeks after all A3 Batch 1 miners come online? Just my guess..
