u guys are solo mining or pool ?

lol you can not solo mining, network is 1 tera

Yes you can, actually quite many posters here do solomine. Even my lonely amd 290 managed to find a block during weekend, that happens about once a week on average. Feels a bit funny when 200€ card finds a block worth 50€...

Most important thing is reliable and low latency network connection.



how much is one block 3-4 ethereum?

5 ETH


is difficult to setup the solo mining? i want to try

Couple good ones here.. http://cryptomining-blog.com/tag/ethereum-solo-mining/
http://cryptomining-blog.com/5344-quick-guide-on-solo-gpu-mining-ethereum-on-windows/
https://github.com/Genoil/cpp-ethereum/tree/stratum/releases  latest ethminer
https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/releases/tag/v1.3.5  newest version of geth..  looks like they just updated this.. need to keep a better eye on that myself. Im running 1.3.4

if ya get stumped feel free to ask> I just figured this out last night myself:)  going to point my farm at it today and see how i do for the week

I hope you have a lot of hashing power. Finding blocks isn't as easy anymore lately.

Not looking for ease.. I have much patience.. Im running 150 mhs now and will be upgrading to over 500 at the end of the month.  I bought 2k eth on the presale and still hold onto that(i am starting to see the light on this coin:)  bitcoin cant get their shit together..  Ive been following this coin since birth and have a great feeling about this one.. What i dont like to see is the lack of decentralization.  dwarfpool imo is far too big when compared to the rest of the network.http://etherscan.io/stats/miner?range=7 >  Im going to do my part in helping this out..  at my current speed with decent luck i should find a block just about every other day.. Which is fine by me.. With good luck i could do far better than being on a pool or it could be worse.. chance im willing to take.. i have great network connectivity so i will give this a go.. Like i said will see how it goes for a week or two..

Best Regards

I don't hope bad things to happen to anyone but as a small solominer, I wouldn't cry if Dwarfpool (or some other big pool) had some serious technical issues...

The block chain is growing too fast. Is there a proposal to reduce the size? Can the data be compressed in the protocol level?

It is not so difficult to set up solo mining. You can find some information in the forum or the http://cryptomining-blog.com/

And remember to use --fast switch when you sync blockchain first time and use powerful pc for that if possible. It is almost 10GB so it takes time to load.

hello

I know you prolly come across this once before.. im having an odd issue..  I have multiple computers running several 7970 each.. What im doing is using windows remote desktop to swap between the different rigs.. What is weird is if i start ethminer within remote desktop it will only see one card, I then have to reboot computer and hook a monitor up to it and load ethminer from that console.> Have any of you seen this or had this happen.. seems their is an odd glitch if i try to run ethminer thru remote desktop.   All computer running win 10 pro.

Best Regards

If you're using batch scripts, try launching them as administrator (paths to exe's have to be full). Or try launching cmd as admin, cd to the dir, then running the batch file.

I do the same with remote desktop but don't have the problem you're seeing (however I'm running nvidia cards)...

MSI Afterburner & RDP issues...

If I connect to nvidia rig everything works like it should. But when connecting to amd rig every setting in afterburner is zeroed. 1 ETH bounty to whoever finds a solution for this  Smiley


Vnc.........

Or use sapphire trixx

Vnc did the trick, thanks!

Thanks so much.. Ill get on that now and see what i come up with.. I really appreciate that.
