Got some numbers on that?

I meant, versus AMD. ASIC mining is definitely crappy here.

correct me if I am wrong - but this sounds very much like you are saying the Nvidia GTX 960 is the ASIC of DGB? This sucks IMO.

Is this decentralised as DGB is meant to be?  The reward for mining needs to be spread equally across the 5 algos and CPU's GPU's and ASICS to maintain its decentralised claim..........

what about all those that don't have them - should we go and buy some to keep up? Its a repeat of the ASIC story IMO.




 

The Nvidia GTX 960 produces almost 4 times the mining yield on a per kwh basis when compared to the AntMiner S5.

That's the most cost effective mining available on Earth.

profitable is a far way word.
mine and dump immediately is the stupid way.
so don't care about the current profitable,everybody has his own reason to keep mining.
the price is up and down,it's no surprise.
it was 12 sat few months ago,who can image it's steady on 60 sat now.
and who can image what the price few months later?
buy or mine are the same way,the only difference is who can earn a little more.
the five algos of DGB are old,old miner knows how to mine more coins.
for long term mining,i hope fewer people enter my place.
so i will stay where i am ,even negative profitable.

Nice idea, but I'm not sure about the need to "free" the DGB main thread of this material though - it is a quite essential and extremely important aspect of any cryptographic digital currency . . . by definition.

And when it has to do with wasting time or not - and that's what SHA ASIC mining is, BTW - it's probably even more important to have it on the main thread. We should be making very clear to everyone that GPU mining is the most "profitable" by a long shot, with the Nvidia cards being the crème de la crème.

Can you tell me what pool you used to mine DGB SHA - I wouldn't mind trying that pool.

I am really curious to find out why my mining of DGB on DigiHash is returning such poor rewards?



Thanks

Since this question about mining SHA256 came up, I’ve been conducting a very loose practical experiment myself to compare whether it is better to mine DGB directly or mine BTC and then convert to DGB.
My initial findings are this; At 60 Sat price of DGB, what I have mined is very close to the same amount of DGB as I could directly buy with the BTC I would have mined. However, if I had mined BTC, I would probably have had to pay exchange fees to convert. For the small amounts involved this is negligible so I would say at this price, there really isn’t much in it.
If DGB rises above this 60 Sat price, it would obviously be more beneficial to mine DGB directly but then again that would be easily offset again as more miners start doing this.
Conclusions; we can expect the DGB Network speed to increase as DGB price rises above this 60 Sat price and drop off if it falls below. 

UserName: Jumbley
Algo mined: SHA256d
Hashing power: Up to 8THs
Daily coins per pool: 0 at the moment, its more economical to buy coins with the money I'd spend on electricity.
Pool: Various but has mainly been ghash.io
Mining frequency: Waiting for things to pick up 
Coin sales: Not for sale!

I switched on one of my Backarrow X3 units today under clocked running at 800GHs and pointed it at the digibyte pool, it's been running for about 7 hrs now and has accumulated around 3700 DGB.

UserName: usukan
Algo Mined: SHA256d
Hashing Power: 440GH/s ever on DGB - one S3 - (4,840 GH/s total on SHA on Antpool)
Daily Coins as per Pool: 6,000
Pool: Digihash
Mining Frequency: Failover when Antpool is down and about 5 days/month for variety
Coin Sales: 0% of Monthly (WTF! are you crazy)

"Pool" might be handy to specify for inter pool comparisons

Miners need their own thread as it's a multi algo mined coin; let's start wit ha poll shall we?

Lots of miners, lots of different talks going on, let's crop it in one arena.

Since there's a lot more miners on DigiByte now and the announcement thread is now being littered with tailings (aka - mining lingo no one understands and huge re-reposts) DGB miners now have their own place to posts mining related talks; admins can point commenters here.  This way, the DigiDevs & experts can concentrate on helping n00bs to the coin in regards to usage and the big "why"...


We want constructive discussions and as you can see, we can see a sort of average of coins per day.

No ass kissing, no trolling!!!  Swearing Welcome!

This is what we should do, let's be organized, use the following easy to use copy and paste template:

UserName: GigaBit
Algo Mined: SHA256d
Hashing Power: 3TH/s
Daily Coins as per Pool: 50,000
Mining Frequency: Always at least 1TH/s, 24/7, unless power/internet outages.
Coin Sales: 0% of Monthly

Obviously put in your own info, this will give everyone a good idea of what to expect when entering DigiMineLand.  In the end, we will see the differences and what they are and which algo is most profitable.  Obviously most will get their info from their pools, that's fine, they're usually pretty accurate.  The more organized miners get, the more coin they can make.  I'm also sure SHA256d miners want to see how their hardware pans out against another's, so to say; even cross algo's!  Should be interesting.

Poll Note: You can vote UP TO 5 times!!  Some miners may be mining each algo, or some may mine more than just one.  You can vote for each algo but can only vote once one time.

Author Note: I'm very busy and cannot compile data, if someone wants to keep a spreadsheet.  I'm off right now, pre-surgery calm time
