Topic: [ANN][YAC] YACoin ongoing development - page 67. (Read 379983 times)
I tried YAC tonight with my 750ti. Without success. Anyone would like to share their .bat file with me.
Price already increased 1.32x...go yac! :p
It just got traded all of the way up to 3205 satoshi on Cryptsy - looks like someone bought a few hundred thousand YACs.

I've been meaning to do some extensive testing in the power-efficiency arena. Rough calculation, it seems I am costing myself $0.25 per day on one rig by using this PSU. But at this point, 750B might be an overkill for me. I'm wondering if crappy riser cables also play a factor...
Not likely the riser cables, just efficiency of the power supply likely. My other machine is on a Supernova 650 Gold - I bought nice re-usable components for the things that have a life after crypto mining...Again, we can't predict exactly where the difficulty ends up right? It could be more or less when it settles. You assume the exact same miners from prior to the NFactor change. I say more, new miners will jump on board--optimism.
I think you're overly optimistic - with the way the hashrate fell for all cards that aren't 4GB cards, I would make you a gentlemans wager that we're going to see it below 50% what it was a week ago (1.08k per the mining software, 0.0164 difficulty). If we settle above 500/0.0763 I would be shocked. My best cards dropped 60%, my worst 70% and I'm going to hypothesize that all CPU's dropped by 50%. So, unless, as you say, there is an influx of new miners, a 60%+ drop in difficulty should not be a surprise.I think majority of the hashrate was coming from GPUs as well. I'm a CPU miner and I can confirm that I had a drop of 45-55% in all of my hashrates with the last n-increase. I too think we will see a very low (if not a record low) difficulty once it is stabilized. With all of the new coin 'attempts' I think people are going to start valuing the stability, and ASIC resistant properties for YAC. With the larger block reward (from the lower difficulty) I think we will see new miners.
23 trillion, even doge is jealous of your spammy coin :p 1 coin for every dollar of national debt, surely a successor to the dollar
why is this coin #1 on coinmarketcap? I call shennanigans!!! DAT VOLUME LOL
Apparently explorer.yacoin.org is now listing the coin supply in satoshis. Totally an honest mistake with the API server code and not in any way a dastardly scheme to gain attention for YACoin to boost the price...
Supply should be around 20 million, site screwed up. YAC is in it's proper position though. 
This is a ridiculous way to beat bitcoin market cap... and not funny at all...

Market cap!!!! 134 BILLION $$$$s

Don't think people will run to buy r7s...people are lazy and slow.
CPUs!!

So, unless, as you say, there is an influx of new miners, a 60%+ drop in difficulty should not be a surprise.If your assumptions pan out, the price will have to drop significantly from where it is now or the profitably per R7 240 4GB (and lots of CPUs btw) will be pretty significant. All likely scenarios seem pretty good for me, so I'll bet you 1000 YAC that now until Sunday (midnight EDT) difficulty never drops below 500...
My 6 x R7 240 4GB rig is running at a total of 300W. It is 80W without my GPUs running. Therefore, I'm getting ~36W per card on average, but I think I am paying a price from trying to cut corners with an inefficient PSU.
I'd have to say that might be it. I've got an EVGA Supernova 750B on mine, and at idle it pulls 82 watts, and running 4 cards it's 182. With the other rig plugged in and running (4 x R7 250's), it goes up to 384 Watts. That gives me ~8 KH/sec between the 2 rigs, which should be ~1000 YAC/day when the difficulty settles down. We're not even down to 50% of the NF=14 diff (it will drop below 50%) and returns are back to ~800 YAC/day.
Looking forward to that! Might cpu mine it too...I'm folding for now.

R7 240 4GB = 984 H/s
You're a little low, may want to work on settings - try a lower LG or increase frequencies. You're leaving hashpower on the table...
R7 240 4GB = 1.18 KH/sec
So 240 4gb and 750ti are 2 most efficient cards to mine yac right now?
I just want to try the coin especially with much greener setup.
From a price/performance ratio, yes.
The R7 240 4GB can be had for ~$70-$80 and draws 25W under YAC mining load
The 750 Ti is $130-$140 and I understand is around 35W under YAC mining load
If you just want to mine YAC, go the R7 route. If you want a card that is good for a lot of things that happens to be decent mining YAC, spend more for the 750 Ti.

The R7 240 4GB is great at mining NFactor 14 too. Perhaps, the multipool(s) should be specific to the GPU, ie a 750ti multipool, an R7 240 4GB multipool and so forth... paying out in YAC only of course.
