Is there a way to speed this up?
I see people doing like thousands of Mhps but I am doing like 50Mhps
with an OC'd ATI Radeon HD 5500 videocard.

in 3 days it's made about 0.01BTC Embarrassed

I'd buy a better card, but spending a lot of money on a high-end video card sort of defeats the point of making BTC, I doubt the card could ever pay for it's self.  Huh

Yes buy an asic from bfl  Grin

I've experimented with this a bit so far and I will say it is the most user-friendly thing that has come out of Bitcoin so far, all you do is install the client and java then turn it on.

I will say though that the sign in process was a bit of an unnecessary pain in the arse.

i just tried to add my address to the namecoin payout, but it says my address is type BTC not NMC
how do I fix this? I'm running bitcoin now, and that's the only address I have in the wallet so far.

I can't seem to find a "create namecoin address"

Hi,

Newbie here.  Just getting into this, and I'm attempting to get this system working:

Powermac Quadcore PPC G5 (64bit)
MacOS 10.5.8

The sticking point appears to be that JRE 1.6 is required (to run BitMinter), and it isn't
clear that java 1.6 can run on this machine.  I've spent some time googling and trying
various things, but thought I would see if anyone else has gotten a miner set up on
this type of system.

thanks

Not worth running on that machine, you'll pay more in electricity than you'll see virtually no return. Refer to my post above on the previos page already explaining what you need.

The reward halfing at height 210 000?

Didn't realize we hit that already, looking it up I see it was the 25th... That kind of sucks, at least short term.

My mining speed is ridiculous: 0.0005 coins per day (i started yesterday) 1800 khps ... ? how can i improve this?

Post your specs, then people can know if it isn't just a problem with your hardware or settings.

Quick question, am I able to log multiple computers into one worker id? Would this affect performance? Thanks

Yes, you can. You won't be able to tell the computers apart in statistics but otherwise it would be fine.

Not sure what's going on, but I'm getting paid a lot less than normal this last week. I've been getting .05-.06 btc every block but now I'm lucky to get .02 or even .01 every block. Normally I get around .7-1 btc in a day and I'm not even getting .3 on most days. Has something changed that I missed?

Well thats the speed of my GPU not my CPU which i have alrady disabled lol.

........

have you all made a lot of changes in your settings to increase mining speed?



Long story short, just don't mine with Nvidia GPUs, not worth it in the least. If you are going with GPU based mining stick with AMD, most would recommend at least a 5850 to make it at least break even with your increased electricity bill. An AMD equivalent to the 210, while yielding much faster results, still isn't enough. You typically want at least 300-350 Mhps to see any real outcome.

Its a brand new one, but since i dont like noises is a "passive cooling" one, without a fan, so probably in order to prevent it from heating up it's slower...?
Its this one, is anyone mining with this?
