Use the latest cgminer, there's a lot of changes since then ... oh wait ... you can't

I've been mining on this pool with a 46 GH/s Bitfury ASIC miner for a few days now. I noticed that my hashrate reported by Bitminter dropped occasionally, all the way down to 900 MH/s. These drops coincided with my share target dynamically dropping to a very low number. Then I noticed that the stratum proxy on the Bitfury ASIC wasn't submitting shares any faster with the lower target. The share submission rate stayed the same as the difficulty target slowly climbed back up to maximum level, and my reported hashrate rose back up to normal levels with exactly the same pace.

After removing the -rt (or --real-target) flag from my stratum proxy, this hasn't happened again. This change results in a slightly higher load on the Raspberry Pi that's controlling the ASIC (because the miner now tries to send every diff1 share to the proxy), so I'm not recommending anyone to do this unless you are actually experiencing the above problem.

1.  Found my first BITCOIN Block EVER!!  Hooray!!

2.  Doc, You may have noted I turned off my "perks" a couple days ago.  Nothing personal and not to worry; as if my pathetic 6-10GH is a big deal.  Just temporary and I will soon be percolating away once again.  I am a BITMINTER fan and promoter.  Have already got two more newbies, up, running and pointed at BITMINTER.  More to come.  Also, though I am very late to the game, my GH's are growing well and expect steady growth to continue for this team.

3.  Phillip, thanks for your posts-they have been very helpful.  Keep'em coming.

4.  Thanks to everyone on the BITMINTER Thread.

I have quite a sum of bitcoins which I feel that i dont need to use it anymore. So I'm considering to invest in some vpses since cloudhashing is not pointed to bitminter anymore. My objective is to help bitminter to gain more hashrate not to earn money for my own profit.


"If you have BTC that you don't feel like you need, my sig has a bitcoin address to which any contributions would be used to purchase mining hardware pointed at bitminter. That would be a steadier longer-term solution to increase bitminter's hashrate than your proposed, temporary, rental of virtual private server resources."


I am a poor struggling newbie miner.  I too would be happy to accept any un-needed/unwanted/surplus/cluttering BTC.   I will gladly provide them a good home here:1KWYbp8M1JxN7PkSwaX51cKrqWucgtXC22

Thank you and I promise I will put them to good use to the benefit of myself, BITMINTER and the BITCOIN Community as a whole; in that order.

Yes the little B has a 1.  I happened anywhere from my posting back about 9-10 days. As that was the last time I rebooted.

I have PM'd you my username.

Any news on the next update for the Bitminter client? 1.4.1 still does not like my singles completely. I still cannot get 1.4.1 to recognize all the devices even if I have it do a scan all for external devices....

blockchain.info gives very inaccurate info on mining distribution, and should not be used.

Use this site instead:

How can deepbit be at 3700GH/s and find 17% of the blocks ?!?!?

Just so you know, most VPS providers will shut down your account if you start maxing out the CPU 24/7.

Same here, feel free to give , I'll be glad to point all my new hardware to bitminter !!

If you have BTC that you don't feel like you need, my sig has a bitcoin address to which any contributions would be used to purchase mining hardware pointed at bitminter. That would be a steadier longer-term solution to increase bitminter's hashrate than your proposed, temporary, rental of virtual private server resources.

100 of those would produce 6600Mhs, with the current difficulty 6600Mhs produces 0.05Btc / 24h. Im having a hard time believing one could purchase the VPS's that cheap.

Ok, you propably should check this to see how different cpu's fare in mining. Perhaps it will convince you of how it is not viable:

They were dead long before that announcement, I suspect your confused with the units Mhs, Ghs and Ths to even consider this. Also I also do regard you as a botnet operator or leaser.

LOL botnet support from DrHaribo ...

If you found a block it should be listed, even if it was stale. What's your user name and do you know at what time or day it happened?

If you are using BitMinter client, the Bitcoin symbol at the status bar at the bottom of the window shows a 1?

So my client has been running for a 9 days now. Yea! But I am perplexed. It says I solved a block, yet I don't see it in the list on the website.  Am I missing something?  This would have been my second block solved. I did see the first one way back a few months ago.

That's the spirit Sorry about the connection problems though - that should work.


Connecting a few hundred very slow miners directly to the pool may get you banned, yes, especially if using the getwork protocol. Connecting them all through a single connection using stratum proxy would be possible though. But on the other hand, is it really worth the effort setting up so many incredibly slow machines to mine? I don't think you'll get 3 TH/s - you'd be lucky to get 1 GH/s.

We can hope 

Wow, thanks donaldtrump for the great block haha

How can you get 3TH on vpses
