I'm using MultiPoolMiner for several Zpool algos and the daily average for me is around 0.00029. About 2 weeks ago was fine but since then it dropped significantly (at around the NiceHash hack). I started writing down the Total Unpaid balance into a spreadsheet every day and by calculating the deltas for the timeframes I'm getting only 0.0001 BTC daily which is way less than expected for an overclocked GTX 1060.
crackfoo could you give an explanation for this massive difference?
hey therecrackfoo could you give an explanation for this massive difference?
You're tracking the unpaid balance (in bitcoin?), which is what I do. With the massive spike in BTC a week or two ago, your earnings in BTC should decrease, yet equivalent earnings in fiat should remain the same or be higher. I don't know about the 1060, but my O/C'd 960 does about that now too. It is what it is.

Yes, I'm tracking the unpaid BTC and once in a while I write the time and balance into a spreadsheet calculating the elapsed time and balance delta. From that I calculate the 24 hours earning. MultiPoolMiner is getting every algo's earnings from Zpool's API and calculates my earnings based on a previous benchmark speeds (which get updated every minute so they become very accurate mining speed measurements) and also makes an average of earnings reported by Zpool as well. So it becomes pretty accurate after a few days. Usually it's around 0.00028 ±19% (0.00023-0.00033) BTC per day and that is what I was getting about weeks ago but since then my earnings went down to about 1/3 which is not profitable at all anymore.
So my question is why is this huge earnings difference from 2 weeks ago. Is there some bug in the profitability calucation on Zpool's side or on the exchange?
Two weeks ago BTC was ~10k USD cheaper; so when you compare your numbers, you must factor in BTC sale price at that time, or rather before that time....
It makes sense that earnings are .5x of what they were if the price is 2x now.
It's a sliding scale.
I get that but the pool is reporting bad data:
Code:
"neoscrypt":{"name":"neoscrypt","port":4233,"coins":5,"fees":2,"hashrate":8260022991,"workers":4176,"estimate_current":"0.00027344","estimate_last24h":"0.00027605","actual_last24h":"0.22017","hashrate_last24h":6664788894.7634}
So we know the earnings in BTC per GH / MH / KH (depending on algo) from which is easy to calculate the estimated earnings for my speed. However my earnings are way less. MultiPoolMiner also logs past estimates evey minute and makes an average so over a long period of time so it's pretty accurate even considering fluctuations in profitability. MPM also mines the most profitable algos and almost always there's a few around 0.00025
