Prohashing Mining Pool Forums

Hello guys,

Sorry for the newbie question, but I spent a lot of searching hours both in the forum and Help sections.

I'm running following command having 1070 ti video card (ccminer 8.16-KlausT (64bit) for nVidia GPUs):
"ccminer -a x11 -o stratum+tcp://prohashing.com:3333 -u blesser"

Following responce received:
[2017-12-30 23:26:24] NVML GPU monitoring enabled.
[2017-12-30 23:26:24] 1 miner thread started, using 'x11' algorithm.
[2017-12-30 23:26:24] Starting Stratum on stratum+tcp://prohashing.com:3333
[2017-12-30 23:26:25] Stratum difficulty set to 65536
[2017-12-30 23:26:25] prohashing.com:3333 x11 block 1341862
[2017-12-30 23:26:27] prohashing.com:3333 x11 block 1341862

....
[2017-12-31 10:03:56] GPU #0: MSI GTX 1070 Ti, 14.85 MH/s

But after 12 hours mining there is no changes in a dashboard, no new workers added and no changes in the upper side of my personal screen for x11 it is still the same:
X11: 0.04268¢ · 0.0000000334BTC

But Scrypt balance kinda changes
Scrypt: 2.68265¢ · 0.0000021000BTC

BTC and LTC payout adresses registered but balances are zero.

What do I miss and where is my x11 12 hours mining reward?

Then how can I switch my dashboard to show x11 instead of Scrypt?
Live worker status (1)
All: Expand - Collapse
Scrypt: (1)

"ccminer -a x11 -o stratum+tcp://prohashing.com:3333 -u blesser"


instead try....."ccminer -a=x11 -o stratum+tcp://prohashing.com:3333 -u blesser"

I think you missed the a=x11, because the stuff you posted says SCRYPT, not X11 on the hash report.
If you want to mine X11, it needs to be in X11 mode not scrypt.

Thank you so much for the answer! I'll try it out!

So I lost my 12h job and can't access my earnings?

Happy new year!!!

I'm not sure what the previous parameter would have done or how the system read it in.
Would need a screen capture of the live miner status with the old settings to figure out anymore.

If you remove the a=x11 it should default to scrypt autopool.

But I do think the Nvida cards do better hashing on X11 than they do on scrypt. That said I think if you do some research, you will find there are coins that you cannot mine with an ASIC machine that may pay out even larger profits. Ethereum would be a big one to look into. But you would have to find a pool that allows mining those ASIC-resistant coins in order to find the better profits.

Good luck!
HAPPY HASHING!

you need a=x11 in the password arguments too so the server knows which algorithm you want to mine. so add -p a=x11 or whatever it is for your ccminer, like -O username:"a=x11 n=gtx1070"
mining on the wrong algorithm for however long won't generate any valid shares, so your 12 hours is wasted. you would be lucky to find shares with a gpu anyway, like appleminer was saying. minimum difficulty has risen a lot. maybe you'd have some luck solo mining easier coins but profitability is still terrible

Unfortunately none of your suggestions worked for me, miner just showing authentication errors
[2018-01-06 22:37:21] Stratum authentication failed
[2018-01-06 22:37:21] ...retry after 10 seconds
or
[2018-01-06 22:39:46] 1 miner thread started, using 'bitcoin' algorithm.
[2018-01-06 22:39:49] HTTP request failed: Could not resolve host: blesser
[2018-01-06 22:39:49] json_rpc_call failed, retry after 10 seconds

The only working line of all suggested is "ccminer -a x11 -o stratum+tcp://prohashing.com:3333 -u blesser" but there is no coins or workers appear.
even "ccminer -a scrypt -o stratum+tcp://prohashing.com:3333 -u blesser" does not work.

I gave up and went to other pools, sorry guys. Will try prohashing again when S9 ASIC arrives.

No you wont...because like your fail messages....[2018-01-06 22:39:46] 1 miner thread started, using 'bitcoin' algorithm.
the pool does not have a SHA-256 bitcoin algorithm.

The same reason your settings will not work here, the S9s wont either.

Until maybe sometime in the summer when they put SHA-256 mining in place.
Until then you need to supply the algo you want to mine with here, and it needs to be of either scrypt or x11.

Hello ,
I'm having the same problem I already tried several mining softwares all happened the same thing here in prohashing. in other pools I tend to mine in X11 normally.

my hardware configuration is a gtx 1050 ti card
  ethminer configuration:
ethminer -G -P stratum+tcp://user:a=x11@prohashing.com:3333 -t 1
ccminer configuration:
ccminer-x64 -a x11 -o stratum+tcp://prohashing.com:3333 -u user -p a=x11

I used claymore mining software and I had the same problem too.
with equihash this problem does not occur only with x11 and only on prohashing.com

thanks,
