Topic: [Awesome Miner] - Powerful Windows GUI to manage and monitor up to 200000 miners - page 443. (Read 703512 times)

In my tests, these are the numbers I found:


Nicehash: 98%
MiningPoolHub: around 98%, probably a bit more
Ahashpool: about 68%
Hashrefinery: about 75%
Zpool: less than 60% of what they actually publish

I'm not sure profit mining is worth it using some services, but it's a big feature of AM, and that brings in new users.

It is unfortunate that there are many new folks who don't understand how profit switching works, and how AM is calculating potential profit.  Your mileage will vary a lot depending on how the pool handles exchanges, the price at the time it hits the exchange, difficulty spikes, pool fees, PPLNS losses from switching too fast, pool luck, miner fees, etc.

Folks think that whattomine is the gospel, when it's nothing more than a general state of things at that point in time.  Estimated profits on services like zpool, mph, and others are "estimated" for a reason.  AM is just reporting what the services says... again at that point in time.  Nicehash is a little unique because it calculates your BTC payments based upon the demand from renters on the service and the algo of the moment.  Nicehash's "hot coin" is not necessarily tied to exchange rates, hashrates, and difficulty, but what renters are willing to pay to go after those coins.  Renters have all kinds of different strategies, like tackling low difficulty coins when they start their downswing so they get more coin for their rented hashrate.  Or hitting a PPS pool right after a block with a ton of rented hashrate to boost their shares, then switch to another coin or pool at another block.

If someone really truly wanted to profit switch, they would setup individual pools for their favorite coins (you could even use the built in online services pools), and make a pool group to switch between those coins... then AM would switch using whattomine data.  Set AM's switching interval to check for changes in data to a much higher rate than 10 minutes (probably best set to hours) and the profit switch threshold %... then AM will switch much less often, and you will get a nice steady and mostly predictable payout.

You have to do a lot of configurations. The best is to have all coins added by default in AM and some new pools.  Until than you will earn 30% less money every hour.

You are totally WRONG!

Open aHashPool website an you will see 3000 miners on phi right now.

On my statistics last night phi was the most profitable for 80% of the time.

Every AM user that did not had phi algo mining just lost more than 20% because of your ignorance and lack of research.

I advise you to add the missing coins and algos.

I do think that it is not fair to make users of AM loose thousands  of dollars every hour because of your ignorance of not having all algorithms added in managed profit miner. I added myself and earning a lot more than everybody else that do not have all coins by default.

Who thinks like me that it is better to have all coins added by default in the next release and some new pools besides the few ones that are overloaded and not responding that we have now ?

nevermind, new install, left defender on or something and prevented me from connecting. 

all good

is there a bug with claymores ethereum miner v10.5 when adding a new miner?  If running v10.5 for me they wont show up on network scans when adding a managed miner, but if you use an older version it works.

Hi, can you help, show screenshots of your configuration missing coins PHI1612 algo coin LUX?

Can you help me? Use it as I can to thank you

For NiceHash, it appears to be fairly accurate - within 95% range.

But for AHashPool and HashRefinary, they are still wildly off. Of course, not the fault of AM but still, that's what you get. I haven't even tried the ZPool yet due to it having somewhat worse reputation than the others supported by AM but I'm going to try that out within few days.

I'm trying to figure out the right % for each pool so that I can more realistically do profit switching across different pools. For now, I'm sticking to one pool at a time and figuring out what this % should be.

Without the right %, pool switching is pretty much useless - 90% of the time it will be AHashPool, 8% HashRefinery then 2% for the rest.

I dont know anything about LUX or it's profits but just getting all the current algos/coins to it can't be a bad thing lol.

In my experience LUX gives farrrr less than the estimates of any mining calc.

I noticed PHI1612 algo with LUX coin is very profitable almost all the time and better than most of the coins and also if you notice on aHashPool almost half of the pool is mining PHI algo, but AwesomeMiner does not include LUX coin and PHI1612 algorithm that will give at least 20% more profit if being used instead of the best other coins from AM.

Can you add the missing coins and mining algorithms for the next release, patrike ?
There are plenty of coins more profitable that AM ignores and are not added by default.

I added PHI1612 and LUX coin manually in many areas for pool and coin configs and it works. There is a bug that was noticed by a previous user, when you save initially the custom pool service for PHI,
AM removes the .com  from field "URL base" and the process won't start. I edited, added.com and saved again and it worked, the same as a previous user did and notified a few days ago.

It would be great to see the missing algorithms from AM that have hundreds of users on aHashPool and MinigPoolHub and add them to AM's new release. This will increase the daily revenue by at least 30% as it happened to me, but I had to add manually some missing and very profitable algo and coins.

I bet the users of AM will be very happy to see they are earning 30% more just because important algos like PHI are missing from AM, do you all agree ?

Is there a trick to be able to add a pool using awesome miner and baikal?

Every pool I add using awesome miner to my baikal it defaults to x11 algo.

I agree i tested it on Nice hash for about a hour one time an watched AM it was as you said pretty spot on. ofc others for what ever reason will say I'm wrong which is fine but i did also test it one day and i did get what it said i would, give or take one or two bucks off so to me that is pretty dam accurate, it's all way gonna be off more or less depending on the time or what it is selling for the next day .

Hello Patrike,

It seems I have come across another bug.
It seems that AM  is unable to obtain API data from any of the Claymore's software whenever the amount of GPU is equal or above to 10.

To test it, I unplugged GPUs until I was down to 8 and it worked fine.
Then I plugged back in the 9th and it was working fine.
Then I plugged the 10th and once again AM was unable to get stats from Claymore and with it I'm back to the "Interface Offline" message inside Awesome Miner.

Unfortunately, this causes AM to unnecessarily restart the miner every now and then.
I am aware that I can disable the rule restarting the miner but then that will leave the rig down next time a real error happens and a restart is actually needed.

The timing seems to be related to the profit calculations. Whenever I look up the time, when the miners restarted in the log file, i see profit calculation update just before it.

Is the timing always the same? what time is it happening at?

Scheduled event? Local network?

Have you noticed if the gui is functional during one of these times?

No image when you click on it? 

screenshot not working

Adding a screenshot of my dashboard. You can see what's happening with my two miners. Has to be on the main Awesome Miner side for the restarts to be in sync like that.
