Speaking of Nicehash, do they automatically sell whatever you mine at the current rate and give you BTC instead?

If so, people should stop using Nicehash, especially for zec, this is just bringing the price down more cause you keep dumping at a time where ZEC sure as hell doesn't need to be dumped (I know I know, it was bound to crash low...but still).

how i see it is 20% for coin dev 10% for miner dev and 3to 6 % for nicehash only way that it makes money is if the power company pays the rig owner or power cost is0.000000000000000000000001 Cheesy
ZCL has no 20% dev fee, and I don't really know what exactly is nicehash fee. It provides our hashing power to customers who pay for hashrate and point to pools of choice (ZEC or ZCL). In reality it might be more or less comparing to the actual exchange price at the moment, but in average it seems to be the same as mine and dump ASAP.

Still I am sure that all would benefit if there is no "fastest miner competition". Now any Equihash coins are like a dust. But power consumption is high due to high GPU loads. Nobody won.

It was 15% couple versions ago, now 5% added to the user, 10% left to developer. But still, when you see double performance, you even do not think that can be anything ABOVE that rate as a fee. Now solution rates are more or less similar. Not counting the dev fee, Claymore's miner seems to be faster on Polaris, but Optiminer might be wins with other cards (not sure, do not like Windows so did not try latest v6).

Actually, I (and a lot of people) would use Claymore's miner for its embedded monitoring feature. For Optiminer I had to write scripts to provide the same API for web-based monitor. But since there is no choice, I use that miner on Linux.

Linux version will be available in 1-2 days.
Is the linux version available yet?
Claymore decided to leave the Linux competition.
Use other miners for Linux, say, this one (the rates shown do not include 10% dev fee of that miner, so its actual speed is even higher - around 200 Sol/s for R9 390, but you receive exactly what is reported):

Maybe Claymore change his decision not to make Nvidia miner... It would be nice.

I got 1080 and 2x970

Sorry for offtopic question  (this is most active topic, thats why I am asking from here).
ZEC transactions from coinmine.pl to kraken.com stalled more than 8 hours. I can see one transaction in kraken.com is still in confirming state ( more than 8 hours ) and second one is not even showing up in kraken.com. Despite it went out from coinmine about 2 hours ago.
Could it be connected to ZEC upgrade? https://forum.z.cash/t/zcash-1-0-3-important-upgrade-for-miners-pools-users/8650

I have the same problem since yesterday, waiting of payment 5 hours from Suprnova and nothing is going in at kraken, i cant see the payment in Kraken, at https://explorer.zcha.in i can see the payment!

RX 470 120 SOL Stream Processors, 2048
RX 480 120-125 SOL Stream Processors 2304

why not use all the resources of the card  Huh
The rx 480 does 140-145

Power usage vs hash rate.
Lower rate and much lower power usage may result in higher netto profit.

Can somebody please help me what is the exact formula to count ZEC mining profitability?

I know there are many calculators but I want to be sure they tell me the right numbers.

ZEC
Network hashrate: ~22 000 000 Sol/s
Your hashrate: 1000 Sol/s
Miner reward: 6.23 (current)
Blocks per day: 570

Your ZEC amount: 570 * 6.23 * 1000 / 22000000 = ~0.1614

Price: 0.1041 BTC per ZEC

In BTC: 0.1614 * 0.1041 = 0.0168 BTC per day.
In $: 0.0168 * 750$ = 12.6$

Power
Consumption: 0.800 kWh (for example, rx 470 4GB 1260/1850, 1.05V - about 135 Watt, 1160/1850, 0.95V - about 105 Watt per card)
Price: 0.05$ per kW
Day cost: 0.800 * 24 * 0.05 = 0.96$

Total
12.6 - 0.96 = 11.64 $ per day

P.S. You can calculate actual miner reward from block number:

Code:
min(12.5, 625e-6 * blockNumber * 0.8)

P.P.S. You can use: https://explorer.zcha.in/
or https://api.zcha.in/v1/mainnet/network for actual data

Wow, thank you very much for the step-by-step answer Smiley

I still don't know how the mining difficulty is related to the calculation. Or I don't need to deal with that? It depends on the network hashrate and I need to count only with that?

the diff must be counted if the nethash isn't reflecting it because it has changed before the diff adapted, in fact with that calculation, you may have some wrong result some times, because of this

so for example, if the diff is 1000 and net 1000, but then the nethash change to 900 but diff is still 1000 because the diff retarget is not so fast and in any case is not instant

then you will not earn more because the nethash(900, before was 1000) is lower, but you will end up with the same profit
