I have been mining for 24hrs with default and my eth address. When does payment happen?

whats the minimum ETH payout of the pool youre on? Have you reached that threshold yet?

Exactly. The coinwarz eth difficulty chart is much more accurate and gives you a better picture of what is actually happening right now. I'm actually surprised that ETH difficulty hasnt skyrocketed yet. It's probably because bitmain already turned on these E3 ASICs months ago.

They would have to ship more than 100 THOUSAND miners to move the difficulty by 10%. Even for Bitmain that's a lot of miners. The E3 is not going to have an impact on that chart anytime soon.

Anyone else pleasantly surprised at the noise level on this thing?  Thought with those two fans on the front and all that stuff cramped on the inside + no exhaust fans that it would be much much louder.

Yes, but we've been here for a while now, right?

Attributing this 11% increase over 90 days to E3s shipping this week would be a stretch.

Guys, you have to wait a few minutes for the stats to show pool side... rebooting it will only cause it to be delayed.  That's what happened to me, I waited up to 15 minutes before it showed.  Also, the instructions say... 'Power the control board first, and then the hash board. This is because the fans are driven by the control board...'

29 minutes is ridiculous.

So it shows hashing now but now it does not show pool side.

My machine is showing 0. Is this normal? It appears odd to me.

You have to wait more time... ... 1 minute is too short....  min 6 max 15 minutes to see something....


Mine is doing the same.
The ASIC status keeps going from "CC" to "BB".

Interestingly, I've got it "Alive" on a local solo pool, as well as Antpool.
The miner appears to append a random string if you try to use a to delineate a worker in the username.
This breaks a lot of stratum implementations.



+ 1 on having to wait more time before it shows up... I'm trying mine with ETC... after 15 minutes it showed up, 200MH miner side but only hashing 72MH pool side... hmmmmmmmm

I find this setting and working with my E3

https://eth.nanopool.org/

I'm in Europe and first i use europe server... depending where do you live... ops.. where live your E3..... Roll Eyes Grin Grin

URL : eth-eu2.nanopool.org:9999
User: your ethereum address
password x

second URL : eth-us-east1.nanopool.org:9999
User: Your ethereum address
Password : x

There are other setting that is possibile to use in field password... but now my miner is working with this setting.. and i don't change....
about 15 minutes to see statistic of your miner.....

Can someone share their configs for their E3 for antpool or nanopool (or both)?

check this video... this dude has it setup. You'll have to pause the video where he shows his config screen

Thanks for the video. This miner actually reminds me of the old Antminer S4 that they released a few years ago. Nice compact size.

Honestly its a killer deal at $800 and would be nice to have it instead of a bunch of GPU rigs which take up much more space.

Like the above poster has said. Most likely they got one with DDR5 memory and are hashing secretly with those units. So I wonder how the GPU mining profitability will look into the near future, since most GPUs will leave ZEC mining and probably ETH in the near future. Only coin left would be XMR but the mining profitability for that coin is very small.
