I'm afraid I sold 1000 UTC today and bought 1000 CXC with the proceeds.



thanks for the cheap UTC  Cheesy

Whats with the hash rate today, is goes from 12k, to 23k, wild swings  and the diff is through the roof again wild swings.

Something is not right.

Do I remember right you announced that you will not mine UTC and you will live?

You still hre?


Still have lots of UTC...not mining, but staking and watching my investment slowly erode.



BTW thanks for the informative post , if you have nothing to contribute to the question best to keep your mouth shut.

I acquired some GTX 750Ti 2GB but I can't seem to set them up properly.
The best I did was :
Code:
cudaminer.exe -a scrypt-jane:14 -o stratum+tcp -u user -p X -b 4096 -m 1 -i 0 -L 6 -l t96x1
Which gives me only around 2,5 kH/s they should be doing more than 3k at this freq.
GPU 1350MHz, MEM 1525MHz
I have 5 cards running on 4G of RAM


Does anyone have some other settings Smiley

some with this -l t60x2 -H 2 -m 1 -i 0 -L 4
and others -l t5x24 -H 2 -m 1 -i 0 -L 4

working better without -b

getting 3.4-3.6

happy mining
I get "Cuda error", than "Driver Error", with any value above -l t24x2 when using -L 4 on two of my rigs, but on a third one I have no problems running -l t60x2 -L 4
could you try autotune for each card and see what is the best for you. Try different -L values with autotune. All my 750ti is MSI brand and same model but still needs different settings.

Arghhh, I am getting so frustrated, I tried Autotune it crashes with it too...
A 750Ti works perfectly on my PC 3,5kH/s but not om my miner rigs.
It has to be something with driver version or software...  Angry Angry

I don't understand Cudaminer that well and I have some probs running 4x GTX 970 with:
Code:
cudaminer.exe -a scrypt-jane:14 -o stratum+tcp -u user -p X -L 4 -i 1 -l t64x4 -C 1
It crashes every few hours, but I made a .bat file that checks if cudaminer.exe is running and if not starts it again. Smiley

Coin age is determined by the time of the input transaction (which is also called a coin group for staking purposes) to an address in your wallet.  You don't lose coin age by turning staking off, but it does benefit the network by leaving your wallet staking and it doesn't take very much in resources to do it.  You also maximize your chances of staking as early as possible by leaving your wallet staking 24/7.  For UTC, the minimum staking age is 7 days and the age/difficulty modifier keeps increasing until it caps out at 35 days.  Each coin group is evaluated every 30 seconds.    Once a stake difficulty is met with a newly minted block from your wallet and is accepted by the network your coin age for that coin group is reset to 0.

Code:
unsigned int nStakeMinAge = 60 * 60 * 24 * 7; // minimum age for coin age
unsigned int nStakeMaxAge = 60 * 60 * 24 * 35; // stake age of full weight


Beave162 is right.

You don't need your pc 24/7 online.
Start your PC when ever possible, enable stake minting, and after a short time or a view hours it will automatically start and you get your staked coins as an bonus.

Gday steve, happy new year Smiley

Just a question, with regard to staking? I have a substantial wallet, but due to being away for work for long periods at a time i cannot leave to pc on all the time, and as a result cannot stake utc effectively at all, I was wondering if it would be possible to make staking a little more user friendly, say like a lot of other pos coins that when the wallet is offline you gain stake weight so every time you open the wallet you dont have to start from scratch again, i run the wallet about 12 hours a day for a week then need to close it for a week, then repeat the same thing. and so far, i am yet to stake anything?
If i could stake UTC well, i would definitely be in the market to buy a lot more at this price. Regards Dan

I'm pretty certain UTC works like every other PoS coin. You don't need your computer on all the time to earn stake 'weight' whether your wallet is online or not. You just can't actually stake unless your wallet is online. For example, buy 1000 UTC, take wallet offline, wait 30 days, open wallet, you should be staking within a few days.

No worries.

Just wait and be patiënt !

And remember this: What's going down has to go up .... Wink

The whole market cap is going down so it is not strange UTC is among them also.... again be patient and wait !

In stead of listening to the Darth Vader theme you can better listen to the Troller theme, because for a troller like you it is the best song ever....

Please sit down and enjoy  Grin

anybody noticed this slight aberration?

so the BTC difficulty has increased.......... but the price has dropped significantly...............

but the hashrate has INCREASED significantly?



https://bitcoinwisdom.com/bitcoin/difficulty

Go figure.

so the major holders (centralised BTC holders with majority mining power) have screwed the price (read manipulated) for a quick buck over the holiday break.

I expect - but could be wrong Sad Smiley a quick correction by next week - and it will filter through to UTC and others.

The fundamentals look awful ATM so I'm not looking for a sustainable upswing any time soon. IMHO we're headed below $200 BTC/USD. Hope I'm wrong.

imho: cheap hashpower = cheap BTC, just like it happened to LTC.
time will come when worthless hardware will be used to mine worthless coin, just like rats abandoning a sinking ship...

Hi Dan - Yes it works just as Beave162 describes.

I am similar to you - away for a week or two back for a week or two.  I have noted no particular advantage in being online all the time - once/twice a week for 12 hrs catches everything up to the age of coins and staking priority. Of course if you are always connected you support/protect the network which is a bonus.

Moving coins out is going to detract - I have no idea if it preferentially sends old coins but I suspect so. I have never used coin control.

Happy staking

Cheers



Thanx for the response,
 I think continually moving coins in and out of the wallet must be my problem then, but at this price they can stay put in the wallet,  each time i add coins to the wallet, does it restart the 5 day maturing time for all coins again, or just for the newly added coins? Smiley
Regards Dan

Just the newly added coins...

Go to the 'Send' tab in the wallet. You should see the coin control feature? If you click on 'Inputs', you will be able to see the number of confirmations (and date received) of every 'input' of coins in your wallet. Obviously, you want to choose the inputs with lowest number of confirmations and fewest number of coins. Coin control is a great feature, but like most things in crypto, it needs to be more user-friendly.
