Prohashing Mining Pool Forums

well, you have good and bad chips, just like CPU's. Performance variation of 5% could be between 479 and 524 MH/s (that is what bitmain tells you) but could even be better or worse.

Seems like Aura got hold on a good one.

10/11 $18.99
10/12 18.55
10/13 20.06
10/14 23.24

on track for 19.** today

thats 158.77 for 8 days at an avg 19.85/day
prolly spent an hour or 2 on zpool for a buck or 2, pretty good week
its gettin cold here, so i will likely OC this one a smidge when the nov batch one is delivered

Pretty sure you arent getting those returns on a stock unit.

I don't have it OC'd, it's my first and only, currently, and bought it outside of bitmain (didn't exactly notice how easy it is to buy coins with USD, so went the ebay route) and really don't feel like potentially breaking it, even though from what i've read, as long as temps are fine they should be fine? But for now, until i get enough litecoin to purchase another at least, i will leave it as is lol

AppleMiner wrote:WOW, 456, how many errors per hour now?

Another reason i don't want to mess with it currently i have had 1 HW error in the last 8 hours and again i have read as long as it's below a certain percentage it is fine, but don't want to risk it.

From the calculations i have done, they do seem to be just slightly above what it says i should be making on average, but i also notice that prohashing says i'm doing some nonsense like 600mh/s speed sometimes....

For instance, according to prohashing expected payout on 10/13/17, it was $0.0495 per MH, at 504MH (rated) that would be a payout of $24.94, whereas i got a payout of $25.67, not a huge difference, but a small one.

On 10/13 my 1 L3+ made $21.88 85% - same equipment, same pool.

Not all L3+'s are going to be the same, if you have more then one L3+, you'll guarantee see that they will all perform differently.

Though as well, what do you have your payment option as? As in what coin are you setting it to? If it's not litecoin then it can't really be compared to mine.

At least my understanding is, whatever your coin you output your payment to, if it goes up, your profits go up. So if you're on a coin that does not go up one day, whereas you compare it to one that does, you'll see a difference in your payment.

Also, don't confused 10/14 with 10/13, as for instance jimbo207 posts his revenue and to me, and again i could be wrong, to me his dates are wrong. Same thing with Rexmint. They both show a spike on 10/14, and the day before and after that are about the same revenue (not the spiked revenue).

Now, what days these actually are, if they are 10/12 or 10/13 or 10/14 i'm not entirely certain, but you gotta compare the correct date no matter what, of which the my day of $25.67 is Rexmint's day of $23.01 and jimbo207's day of 23.24

Rexmint wrote: 10/15 19.62

10/13 19.05

To me, it's difficult to say what date it is absolutely on that tab, since it shows at the beginning of 10/14ish and end of 10/13ish?

But all i know for certain is that spike i see in my revenue, if i coincide it with the spike it shows on the expected Mh/s tab on the front page, the expected MH/s tab states 10/13



So i'm going to assume, based off the fact that the spike in revenue everyone is showing has similar days on each side of it, based off the information prohashing is giving us, that it is 10/13, not 10/14 like others are showing.

WOW OK then that explains a lot. DAILY PAYOUT is now worthless to me, if its based on the value of the coins at payout and that fluxuates based on coins then it has no grounded value to compare on what so ever from one day to the next.

Now I really wish it would just display my total hashrate for the past 24 hours, or some type of good usable information.


HERE IS AN EXAMPLE.
LTCs start off at $50, and during the first half of the day I make $50 and I make 1 whole LTC.
And then it drops down to $1 for the second half, and I make another $50 and I get 50 more coins.
So at the end of the day, I would have 51 LTCs valued at $1 each, for a DAILY PAYOUT of $51??????

Now others got paid out in gamecoins that started at 50$ the first half and went to 100 the second half of the day.
Making the same 50-50 for each half of the day I did, they got 1 coin for the first half, and half a coin the second half
At the end of the day they would have 1.5 gamecoins X $100 = $150 for a DAILY PAYOUT????

But I would be happy as shit that I got 51 coins, hoping tomorrow they pop back up to $50 again. So if the DAILY PAYOUT is based on the coin price? at the time of payout? or when the coin was made? or the dollar amount associated with it? Something isnt adding up.

The expected payout I get, but if thats based on what people got paid then the expected 1MH/day is also basing it on that you picked the right coin to get your payout in (one that went down while mining but up before checkout time to give you a higher payout?)

I thought the $ value of what you were mining was added and THAT was the DAILY PAYOUT, independent of what coin you choose and THAT value was used to find the expected 1MH daily payout on the main chart. If the payout coins affect the daily payout and thats the values being used to find the expected 1MH payout no wonder the system is so far off and why I never get the average. Im getting the same coins just the value stays the same and others pick higher rising coins, so they get less coins as the price goes up during the day, but their DAILY PAYOUT looks larger and takes up a greater percent of the average, which is why my payouts are lower than average. IN REALITY, Im getting the same of more coins per day, and they are actually getting LESS coins over the course of the day but show a higher DAILY PAYOUT.

So really even the DAILY PAYOUT is a crap meter? Id rather have more coins than a higher DAILY PAYOUT in the long run.
Unless you are coinbase selling your coins directly every day, and you plan to hold them...having a lower DAILY payout compared to others or the average on THIS pool, may not be a bad thing actually. Looking at it another way, the fact I am UNDER the average each day, may actually mean I've been doing this the right way the whole time, and the people OVER the average daily are the ones shorting themselves on coins.

OPINIONS?

It make sense to get paid out in the coin that's dipping that particular day in hopes of it going up later. Mine the most profitable and pay out in the coin that's perhaps down 5 or 10 percent that day.

I could be wrong about that ofcourse, but i see no way around that really? If i have gotten .15 litecoin for half the day and then litecoin suddenly shoots through the roof, it's not like that .15 litecoin will cease to exist. Say for instance, it doubles in price, then that .15 would be worth twice as much, and then everything i'd be getting afterwards, after that spike, but not before, will be adjusted.

Unless how much litecoin it says i have adjusted throughout the day based off how much litecoin is worth? I mean, that'd be pretty messed up, since that would mean i could look at how much litecoin it says i have at one point, .15, and then look 5 minutes later when it doubles in price, and suddenly i'd have .075 just so that my dollar profit stays the same....that'd be pretty messed up.

I've been OC and experimenting with different settings to try and break past $25. Last week I hit just over $24 but that had a lot to do with what I was getting paid out in. If you get paid out on the coin that's predominately mined your earnings will be higher as you won't be eating the conversion costs as much. My best day was when I set it to pay out in Bitconnect and Ltc.

Aura, the amount of coin mined doesn't change. The value of the coin fluctuates of course. What changes is the exchange between what your mining and the coin your paid out in.

I know, that's what i was saying.

Basically, if in half a day, i got $10 worth of litecoin, and suddenly that doubled, then that would be worth $20 of litecoin, and for the rest of the day i would still earn an additional $10 in litecoin, for a profit of $30 in litecoin, rather then $20 in litecoin. Granted, if the coin i output with doubles in price, the rest of that day would likely go up as well since that coin would likely be the one being mined, if it stayed that high.
