Together with the release of Awesome Miner 1.3.1, the Awesome Profit Switcher feature has also been improved to allow more customization.

Single coin statistics from WhatToMine is now supported, and will be default for all new installations. WhatToMine is a great service with a coin API that can be used for free.

For a single coin (Litecoin for example), there are now four ways to use the coin statistics:

  • Use the coin statistics directly from the coin service (like WhatToMine)
  • Manually define coin properties like difficulty, reward in and value in either BTC or USD
  • Specify a custom profitability in BTC/MH/day, that is commonly used by multi pools for specifying profitability
  • Specify a profitability factor that will be multiplied with the calculated profit based on information from the coin service. Specify 1.15 to increase the calculated profit of a coin with 15%. This can be used to favor a specific coin in the profit switcher.

For each of the supported profit switching multi pools, a custom profitability factor can also be specified in the latest release. The profitability factor is multiplied with the reported real-time profitability of the pool, and can be used to give either higher or lower priority to specific multi pools. These settings are available in the Options dialog, Online Services section, of Awesome Miner.

The latest release also adds support for the Lyra2RE algorithm.

Supported multi-pools and algorithms for automatic profit switching
  • NiceHash (Scrypt, Scrypt Adaptive N, SHA-3 (Keccak), X11, X13, X15, Nist5, Neoscrypt, Lyra2RE)
  • WestHash (Scrypt, Scrypt Adaptive N, SHA-3 (Keccak), X11, X13, X15, Nist5, Neoscrypt, Lyra2RE)
  • LTCRabbit (Scrypt, X11)
  • Yaamp (Scrypt, Scrypt Adaptive N, X11, X13, X15, Neoscrypt, Lyra2RE)
  • Hamsterpool (Scrypt, Scrypt Adaptive N, X11)

The pool TradeMyBit has closed down and has been removed from the list of supported multi pools.

Please remember that Awesome Profit Switching works great for both GPU mining and standalone ASIC's, and up to 200 miners can be managed from a single interface. It's especially useful for Scrypt ASIC's (like KnC Titan), where you can get much higher profits by automatically selecting the most profitable pool.

  • WestHash (Scrypt, Scrypt Adaptive N, SHA-3 (Keccak), X11, X13, X15, Nist5, Neoscrypt)
  • LTCRabbit (Scrypt, X11)

With Awesome Miner 1.2, the Awesome Profit Switcher feature has also been updated to include more algorithms.

Neoscrypt is supported for TradeMyBit, Nice/WestHash and Yaamp. For Yaamp, more pools have been added as well.

Supported multi-pools and algorithms for automatic profit switching
  • TradeMyBit (Scrypt, Scrypt Adaptive N, X11, X13, X15, Nist5, Neoscrypt)
  • NiceHash (Scrypt, Scrypt Adaptive N, SHA-3 (Keccak), X11, X13, X15, Nist5, Neoscrypt)
  • WestHash (Scrypt, Scrypt Adaptive N, SHA-3 (Keccak), X11, X13, X15, Nist5, Neoscrypt)
  • LTCRabbit (Scrypt, X11)
  • Yaamp (Scrypt, Scrypt Adaptive N, X11, X13, X15, Neoscrypt)

In addition to these pools, the profit switcher also uses single coin statistics and can switch to mining any single coin if more profitable than any of the pools above.

As always, you don't have to setup anything manually. Simply go to the Awesome Profit Switcher web site and download the complete pool list to automatically import everything into Awesome Miner.

Awesome Profit Switcher works for all miners on your network, both GPU mining rigs and standalone ASIC's. A single Awesome Miner instance can manage, monitor and do profit switching for up to 200 miners.

hmm, checking and WafflePool is in the list of online services and right now is the most profitable for scrypt but it won't witch to it, i took a look at the scrypt file you have on your website and it's not in there. could you add it please.
You are correct that WafflePool isn't part of the profitability switching. The reason is that the statistics provided by WafflePool are per day, while the other pools provide the "current" (10 minute average) profitability. Per day statistics are not good enough for the profitability switcher.

or if you can pull the information from the API key from MRR, even better
If MRR is enabled in the Options dialog, Online Services section, that is what Awesome Miner is trying to do, at least when the rig is rented.

It;s for MRR i can change the value but not the input a value of let's say X amount of btc/mhash/day for example
This is something I can add in future versions of the software, to let you specify profit per 1MH/day.

i am also having trouble with the remote feature to run my gpu rigs but i think that me not configure it properly.
Please let me know the details of the problem you experience. Thanks!

btw i love your program, i'm using it right now to monitor my ant miners s3 and restart/reboot them when speed goes down, works flawlessly. great job

great program btw, i just purchased it and waiting for stupid confirmations Smiley

is there a way to define a coin to a pool and tell it how much its worth cause i;d like to do so for my rentals and have it displaying the proper $$$/day while being rented. ?


You were unlycky with the confirmations, but now you should have received your registration code  Smiley

Is it a Betarigs or MRR rental? For Betarigs I've made a prototype implementation that automatically show the actual rental value.
For any other pool than Betarigs, you can open the pool properties and change Coin from "Unspecified Scrypt" to "Dogecoin" or one of your own defined coins.

Thanks!

Thanks for adding yaamp!
And thanks for providing a good API for Yaamp. The pools that are used by the Awesome Profit Switcher are more likely to get new users, especially because all pool settings are already included. In the case of Yaamp, only the Bitcoin address needs to be entered to get started.

Any cryptonight (xmr,xdn,etc) support coming?
I don't think any or the large auto-switching pools with good API's (TradeMyBit, NiceHash, LTCRabbit, Yaamp) have Cryptonight pools.
Also, I the Cryptonight GPU miner doesn't have an API that provides control from outside applications, right?

cool, thanks.

another issue i found, when adding a personal pool to the Awsome Profit Swithing pool Like MRR ( Mining Rig Rentals ) with a priority of 0, when my rig gets rented it does switch to it but
it give something weird like 300kh instead of 26mh, it takes the proper algo and everthing, but doesn`t work,  i`ll take a snapshot tonight when i get home and post it
MRR and Betarigs pools will always be set to highest priority by the Profit Switcher, to not interrupt any rentals.

If you have a MRR pool added, it will be highest priority no matter if you have an ongoing rental or not. The Betarigs concept works better here, as the pool will only be active if someone rent your rig.

Because any added MRR pool will be highest priority all the time, the Profit Switcher will not do anything specific about it once it get rented.

Hi.

i upgrade to the new version, and redownloaded the new Awsome Mining Profile.
Only Imported the Yaamp Pool into my existing setup and added the pools to the group.
and check off the box for Yaamp in the Online Service.
all works and swithing works but it's not showing Profit earning per day for the Yaamp Pools
any ideas why .?
You are correct, this is a display bug in the list of miners.

The Yaamp profitability is correctly displayed in the Online Services tab, and the profit switcher uses the correct profitability when setting the priorities between the pools. So from a profitability switching point of view, it works fine. But as you point out, you can't see the correct earnings per day in the list of miners.

I will correct this in next release. Thanks!
