I can't cash out my WDC.
What am I doing wrong?

So far I did that:
  • Saved my address
  • Press "cash out"

Based on a previous post, my understanding is that the script takes a little while to process the cash out. It won't show up immediately either as it's updated every 15m(?) or so.

Over the time of 2 days I have tried multiple times, my balance just doesn't change.
EDIT: Never mind - It worked  Grin!

Did you do something different over the past couple days? I haven't cashed anything out yet so wondering if there was a special step you did this time or something.

No, not really. It just worked Undecided.

Re: Mining profitability - what am I missing?

It'll be a mixture, you can't rely purely on the calculators but they give a good idea of what to expect, frankly for me it least mining gives less than the national wage minimum you'd have to put forward some serious hashing power to get any kind of a good return within a few months never mind a day. You also have to take into account once you start mining it's on 24/7 and the hardware needs to be paid off, if you're not making a profit right away then I don't really see the point.

If you've got the money to buy a miner I think you'd be better off developing a skillset people will pay you money for and at least with that you can transfer it over to various economies, I think trying to make money mining is pretty short sighted unless you're just doing it for fun.

Thank you for your answer.

I heard a lot of you talking about how your rigs are not profitable anymore, and selling them.

Are those calculations made on calculators like Coinwarz and Dustcoin + costs of the hardware or am I missing something?

(My coin of choice is LTC and BTC for storage + whatever fluctuate the most atm)

Hi there!

TLTR - Debian, no GUI, what do I need?

I have just put one of my 9750 that was just sitting on my desk, collecting dust in my Debian home server.
What do I need to run cgminer?

Do i need to install Xorg and some type of windows manager?

New coin comes to market, profit sky-rocket and you want to point your rigs to it.
You download your new wallet or chose to point it directly to the market, but what is the next step?
Singlemining?
Searching for some unsecure pool, that is so new, that you don't even know that you will get your rewords?

Hi!

I would like to sell something to someone else on the internet. What would be the best way to do that, using only my wallet?

Basically, what I am asking is: If I sell to multiple people - how do i know who send me the money.

Thanks Grin.

Re: Simple BTC-E question

I believe BTC-E takes their cut out of the BTC you receive, so:

You would sell your 100 USD and receive 1 BTC minus 0.2% (0.998 BTC).

We want that 0.998BTC to be worth 100 USD, after the fee--which means 100USD is 99.8% of the sale price.

100 / .998 will give us the total sales price: 100.2004008...

So you would need to sell your .998BTC for roughly 100.2004USD, but we measure price in the 1 BTC = x USD format, so:

0.998 BTC is 99.8% of the ideal price of 1 BTC, which means 100.2004 is 99.8% of the price of 1 BTC.

100.2004 / .998 = 100.4012

So you would need to sell when the price is 100.4012 USD per bitcoin.

To test this:

.998 BTC * 100.4012USD = 100.2003976USD, minus .2% (100.2003976 * .998 = 99.999996... USD)
Of course it doesn't add up to exactly 100USD, because I truncated a few decimal places  Grin

You were very close in your original thinking ((100 * 1.002) * 1.002), but to be precise you have to look at it the way I outlined it above.

Alright class, if anyone has a question please raise your hand  Cheesy

T-thanks

Simple BTC-E question
by
winsucker
on 19/05/2013, 11:55:50 UTC
Hi.

I have a simple mathematical problem to solve about BTC-E.

Let's say, you buy 1 BTC with a value of 100 USD. After that, you would like to know, what should be the minimum value, that you need to resell it, without any losses.

Transactions fees are 0.2%.

What should be the minimal value to resell my 1 BTC, so I can cover all my fees?

  • 0.2% of 100 USD = 100.2 USD + another 0.2% to sell my BTC back = 100.4 USD ot 0.4% in fees
  • 0.2% of 100 USD = 100.2 USD, but you need to apply the sell fee on 100.2 USD. That should be 100.2004 with all my fees
  • You don't know shit (I agree) - it should be that way

To give something back to you, for reading my post - here is an simple PHP snippet, that will read your "give-me-ltc" pool stats and btc-e's LTC values.
It should be easly modified to your needs.

Code:
$pool_api ="http://give-me-ltc.com/api?api_key=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"//EDIT ME
$btc_e_api ="https://btc-e.com/api/2/ltc_usd/ticker"//EDIT ME

$give_me_ltc file_get_contents($pool_api);
$btc_e file_get_contents($btc_e_api);
$api_btc_e json_decode($btc_e,true);
$api_give_me_ltc json_decode($give_me_ltc,true);


$high $api_btc_e["ticker"]["high"];
$low $api_btc_e["ticker"]["low"];
$buy $api_btc_e["ticker"]["buy"];
$sell $api_btc_e["ticker"]["sell"];


$rewords $api_give_me_ltc["confirmed_rewards"];
$hashrate $api_give_me_ltc["total_hashrate"];
$username $api_give_me_ltc["username"];
$worker1 $api_give_me_ltc["workers"][$username.".1"]["hashrate"]; //EDIT ".1"
$worker2 $api_give_me_ltc["workers"][$username.".2"]["hashrate"]; //EDIT ".2"
$worker3 $api_give_me_ltc["workers"][$username.".3"]["hashrate"]; //EDIT ".3"
$worker4 $api_give_me_ltc["workers"][$username.".4"]["hashrate"]; //EDIT ".4"

$rewords_cash $rewords*$sell;

echo 
"High: ".$high.
"Low: ".$low.
"Buy: ".$buy.
"Sell: ".$sell.
"Rewords: ".$rewords." LTC (".$rewords_cash." USD)".
"KH/s: ".$hashrate." KH/s".
"Worker 1: ".$worker1." KH/s"
"Worker 2: ".$worker2." KH/s".
"Worker 3: ".$worker3." KH/s";

Welcome aboard. Try PowerCoin instead, This is the most profitable to mine right now. This coin has the big potential and has more advanced features than bitcoin and other alts.

Nah, PokeCoin is way better!

Is that the coin where ya gotta catch em all?

Yes. New bitcoin!

Welcome.

You should get at least 370 KH/s (MH/s) with overclocked 5870.
- Use MSI Afterburner to overclock it.
- Watch your temps (max should be 90°C).
- Lower your mem clock to 300mhz (if you mine bitcoin - not a good idea at this point) and OC your GPU.
- If you get too many stales, lower the clock or increase your voltage on GPU.

If you are trying to mine scrypt coins - OC your Vmem with your GPU.

Re: What is the best alt-coin now?

Stick with LTC or mine according to:
http://dustcoin.com/mining
and
http://www.coinchoose.com/

(Currently it should be BitBar.)

After mining it for a day, convert your profits to BTC (or LTC if you are a believer).
