Topic: [4+ EH] Slush Pool (slushpool.com); Overt AsicBoost; World First Mining Pool - page 554. (Read 4382714 times)

Only if you're using shit antivirus.

Virus checkers will try to delete the BFGminer.exe and possibly the Miner.bat files

Just wondered if anyone could help ,Igot an asicminer usb stick today but I been trying to se it up all day .

I eventually got the drivers installed and the usb stick plugged in .

But the videos I watched are all for Bitminter were you download their program and the miner shows up and you click run .

But if I open open slushes website there is no such software it is just a place to register new workers .

Is there any videos of someone setting up a usb stick to mine on slush's pool .?

any help would be appreciated ty.

I prefer videos to a wall of text tbh .

#258513 nice reward had a 12.43 transaction fee

Well, I've been mining with BitMinter and have zero of the issues I had with this pool.
Which sux as I like Slush's!
I just tried again and BF was showing 45Gh/s while Slush's spiked to a whooping 375Mhashes/s.

I am pulling my BF from Slush's.
From BitFury page I am hitting 36-39GH/s (running 24/7 obviously)
Lately there have been to many instances where BF is reporting 36Gh lets say ans Slush's is saying my reward is not what is should be.
My only temporary fix for this was to restart my miner every few hours or when I catch the rewards levels drifting off to where I know it's a problem somewhere.
(I am going to test a few days with Bitminter to see if any difference. The last 30min it's been 37 to 40Gh.)

Let the test begin.

I think what he means is with the higher worker diff rate it just appears they have a higher rejection rate only because you need to take your accepted shares x worker diff then divide by your rejects to see what the rejected % is.

Why does higher difficulty mean higher rejects? (Does it really?)

Expenses are subtracted from what amount?
If you subtracted from the coins value, like:
1 BTC: 138$
minus energy 200$
minus value decrease of hardware 38$
= -100$

than its not a coin which cost 100$ and is a good buy, its a coin which cost 238$ and is worth 138$, thus a bad buy which made you loose 100$.


If you just list all expenses and get 100$, thats not a 100$ loss, its 100$ costs, and if compared to the BTC price, you end up with a 38$ win.
If you did it that way, you calculated right, and i was just confused by the terms u used.
But the point of my initial post was to say that there is really no way for energy costs alone to not exceed the value of the mined coins by far.
So what i want to say: If you mine BTC with GPUs, even when not considering hardware costs, you will always end up "buying" BTC at a very very very expensive rate.
