Any plans to get listed on more exchanges?  The current exchanges don't have a lot of volume, and or use fake data to make them seem like they do.  Also would be nice if you guys would release a Nvidia Miner that supported windows.  TT-Miner works, but hasn't been updated in months.

Re: Mining rig frame for 3 rigs

I suggest you stay away from stacked rigs like that.  If you were to monitor the cards on each row separately you will notice the cards on the bottom rack running the coolest with the cards on level 2, eating the eat from level 1, and level 3 eating the heat from levels 1 and 2.  If you set your cards to a maximum Temp.  They will start to throttle themselves as the temps increase.   If you want to maximize your hash rates.  Keep all racks on ground level.  Also don't be afraid to run your fans at 100%, unless the noise is an issue.

When will you guys get listed on some exchanges?

Hi whitesites,

We will apply to being on an exchange after the swap phase is complete.

any when will the swap phase be complete.  Seems to be no shortage of shitcoins to swap.
Any estimated date of when you would end the swap phase?

Unfortunately thats not an option. as the 1950x is running my windows workstation. 
What kind of hash rate does it get under ubuntu?
I figured out I can run multiple instances of the miner on my 1950x under windows.
getting about 70 kh/s on each instance for almost 500 kh/s total.


I have setup the CPU miner on a few spare systems.  On an Intel i5 Laptop, its getting 150 Kh/s  but on my AMD threadripper 1950x its only getting 93 kh/s.  Any advice?  Or are the miners not optimized for AMD CPUs?

Hi whitesites,

Try by running it on Ubuntu and use the AVX2 version that can be found at https://github.com/ProjectMerge/cpuminer-merge/releases

Topic OP
Argon2M CPU mining terrible results on AMD Threadripper 1950x
by
whitesites
on 31/12/2018, 17:15:56 UTC
Anyone else mining MERGE (Argon2M algo) ?  I am mining it on a 3 laptops, 3 rigs ( using the RIG's CPU ), and my desktop.
Here are my results


Intel Pentium G4620 @ 3.7Ghz 8GB
76 kh/s

Intel Pentium G4400 @ 3.2Ghz8GB
47.4 kh/s

Intel Core i7 920 @ 2.67 Ghz 12GB
120.8 kh/s

AMD Threadripper 1950x @ 3.4 Ghz 32GB
100.2 kh/s

Intel Core i7 7560U @ 2.4 Ghz 16GB
141.3 kh/s

Intel Core i5 3337U @ 1.8 Ghz 8GB
87.6 kh/s

AMD A6 4400M APU @2.7 Ghz 8GB
65.3 kh/s

Intel Core i5 2410M @ 2.3 Ghz 8GB
36.7 kh/s


It seems to me the mining software is more optimized for Intel CPUs
Any advice on getting better hash rates on the Threadripper 1950x?
I have tried adjusting the number of threads and it made no difference.
Its only using 10% of my CPU.  Only way to get more hash is to run multiple instances of the Miner.

Re: 8-GPU rig in 4U rack case
by
whitesites
on 14/12/2018, 15:59:56 UTC
If you want to maximize your GPU's life, and hash rates of your cards, build an open air rack.  My 8 GPU racks have at least 2 inches of spacing between the cards.  in that case the cards are going to be right next to each other meaning each card is going to be sucking in the heat from the neighboring card.  The result is once the system warms up. all your cards will be hitting max Temps, and hash rates will drop as the card try to keep temps under control.  With something like that you would have to use blower style cards and they don't cool as well or hash as fast as traditional cards.  

If you want to be serious about this.  Build open air rigs, and keep them at floor level where the cooler air is.

Re: [ANN] | SUQA | New X22i Algo | SWIFFTX | No ICO | No Pre-mine | %5 Apr Interest

The fact that SUQA still maintains over $100K in daily volume is a good sign.  Unfortunately volume needs to be much higher, before they can start any kind of market place, else simple exchange transactions would be too volatile to the price.  I guess everyone is going to HOLD, until February when the SEC is forced to make a decision on those Crypto ETFs.

Be patient guys.
Net hash has dropped in response to the reward halving.  I am now making about 25% less than I was before the halving, and its getting better every day.
This is actually a good thing.  As it will take away selling preasure caused by autoexchange pools.  This will allow spot prices to rise.
Also if you take into account that the heat from your miners is actually heating your home, this saves you money on your gas bill.

Thats good news, keep it coming.
That greatly helps build confidence for both miners and price.
SUQA price is going back up again.

Granted I know most ALT coins are dropping right now, but there doesn't seem to be any demand to buy, and the constant sell preasure from autoexchange pools keeps pushing it lower.
 Any news from the Team on market place developments?  We need something other than speculators to add some buy preasure on the price.

Too many things wrong with this launch.  Website is amateur.  No Published Road Map.  Only listed on noname exchanges within a day of launch.  This feels like a scam.  Granted I like coins based on a new ALGOs but this doesn't seem to be anything more than a fork for profit.

I first learned about this coin when someone mentioned that x22i ALGO should be added to the T-REX miner, which was one of the main mining programs I use on all my Rigs.  Up to this time I had always mined established coins on auto exchange pools.  I had never mined anything on a pre-exchange status in which no exchange rates had been established for a coin.  But with increasing difficulty on other AlGOs, being increased by centralized ASIC mining operations, I wanted to get away from supporting those coins.  My personal feelings are the centralization of any crypto is wrong and goes against the primary goal of Crypto which is freedom of commerce.  I have watched other coins in the past launch with an Anti ASIC theme only later to decided that changing their ALGO to maintain a decentralized operation was not important, and instead have planned to move to POS systems which cater to larger players who can afford to buy a large stake.  This brought me to this thread where I learned about SUQA.  The people involved in the project were veterans in the crypto space, with documented success in other Coin projects.  So many of the ALGOs and coins I used to mine have been over taken by ASIC miners either publicly, or worse privately.  The SUQA plan was simple.  Not only using one of the most ASIC resistant ALGOs, but commiting to an scheduled 6 month ALGO update to ensure it stays a GPU minable coin.  Plus the rewards for the developers in the project are spread out over time, ensuring they have some skin in the game to keep it going.  They put to rest every gripe I had with other coins from day one.  I pointed all my Rigs to their coin, and haven't looked back.  

My suggestions for the project are the following
Android based Wallet
Having to use my desktop client to send SUQA is not convenient.

CPU Miners
Even though I am not sure how well this would work with this specific ALGO.  Having some CPU miners for both Desktop and Mobile would help to expose many other to the project.  It seems like a common question to those new to mining, is what can I mine with an Android Phone.  Its the kind of thing that would make a person want to share it with others, and get them involved without having to invest in GPUs.  

Web Miners
Rather than Webmasters of high traffic websites gain all the glory in mining. Why not create a system were visitors to the website could be rewarded in SUQA just for staying on the website.  This would be more for registered members sites, but the idea is earnings from browser mining could be tracked to that user, and the webmaster could allow this member to buy upgrades and projects with these earnings, or event transfer their earnings to other members of the site.

Suqa order books are now active at Injex.io!
Suqa's decision to be listed was successful, we have now opened the order books for trading!
Suqa has 1 active pair - SUQA_BTC

Trade here: Injex Market  - SUQA_BTC

This place is a scam.
Not responding to messages on discord,  support email is bouncing.
I tried making a withdrawl yesterday of some SUQA, and Today its not showing in my wallet, and my balance is gone.
Looks like they were waiting for enough BTC to be brought in before running.
DO NOT TRADE ON HERE.

Cuda 9.2 vs Cuda 10 on 1080 Ti any feedback?
by
whitesites
on 14/10/2018, 21:31:26 UTC
Most of the mining software is starting to come out with Cuda 10 versions.  Currently all my rigs are running on Cuda 9.2.  I have been hesitant to upgrade to Cuda 10 due to the way driver upgrades on Rigs can sometimes be tempermental, and I don't have time to reinstall my OS on all my Rigs to get everything right.

So my question is.... Is there any performance gains in MH/s by upgrading my drivers to Cuda 10.x and running a miner compiled for Cuda 10.x for 1080 Ti.  Or are all the 10.x optimizations only good for the 2080 and 2080 Ti Cards?

Re: Zpool stealing ?

Try the same comparison except this time use ahashpool  instead of zpool.
Also run the tests for a full 24 hours, and base your numbers on actual payouts, and not what the current estimates are on the GUI
Trust me, your gross revenues for a single 1060 is not going to be $3.60 / day.  More like 90 cents per day.

You're being to optimistic at 90 cents per day with a 1060, you can't even make that with a 1080  Shocked

Yeah Maybe a little  Grin

Same here, didn't notice any significant lost in profit from mining with icemining.

that's what it is


it means they selectively raped some miners, taking away from them for 2 hours 90% HR

No its connectivity issues.
And looks like icemining.ca is having problem again ( right now )
I just watched the output from one of my miners, and it mentioned problems connecting to the pool.
I know there are some major DNS upgrades going on the internet today.  So that might have something to do with it.
Pool Stats also seem to indicate an issue, as the hashrate just dropped by almost 50% on the entire pool.
Miner counts also dropped by a few hundred.
