why what?

Do any of my fellow Z9 miners know why? 

To begin with...
If you take that tone against someone trying to help and answer your questions, then just f_ck off!!!


IF you would READ:

You would SEEEEE this:
"Make the Most Money Possible

Prohashing not only merge mines coins, but distributes users among different coin networks with a custom algorithm that prevents mined coins from crashing in value or soaring in difficulty. Prohashing monitors every coin with every price change and every new block. The algorithm recalculates profitability multiple times per second, ensuring that the pool is always mining the most profitable coin using the most up to date information. Our debt to you is locked in the coin you choose at the time of earning, so you have no risk if the coins we mine with your hashrate decline in value."


AND THIS:

"Get Paid in Any Coin
Choose to be paid in Bitcoins, Litecoins, Dogecoins, Ethereum, Monero, DASH, and over 200 other coins, or have fractions of your income distributed across several payout coins. Other multipools only allow payout in one coin at a time. Our simple system allows you to be paid in the coin you want to be paid"


AND THIS:

"Work Restart Optimization
Prohashing's system considers network latency and "spin up" time in computing the optimal coin for your miners to mine. Some ASICs incur a significant delay after a block is found, during which they perform no mining. This delay can make mining coins with short block times unprofitable for such miners. Prohashing tests your miner and determines the most profitable coin for your specific hardware. Prohashing also automatically determines how many coins to merge mine so that work restarts don't cause losses in primary coin profitability."


AND THIS:
"c" (setting a specific coin) (If you set this without m=solo mining mode you miss out on prohashing multiswitching)

"Since the purpose of static coin mining is to allow customers to mine on a single network, static coin mining is limited to one coin per IP address per period of time. The amount of time required between mining a static coin and being allowed to switch to the next coin varies. Prohashing's terms of service prohibits the creation of automatic software to switch between static coins, because doing so may reduce the profitability of dynamic coin miners. Manually configuring software to mine one static coin for long periods of time is allowed."

AND THIS:
"m" (setting mining mode) (m=solo mode requires "c=" setting of a specific coin for the algorithm in question)
   
"Sets the mining mode. There are two valid values, "pps" and "solo." "pps" is the default if this argument is omitted, and operates this worker in the normal "pay per share" mode. When "m=solo," the worker functions as a solo miner for this network. It mines at the network difficulty, and each hash is either too easy, or it is a found block. No money is earned for shares that do not find blocks.

When blocks are found by this worker, the account is credited with 97.01% of the entire (block reward + transaction fees) for the found block. Merge-mined blocks in solo mode are still paid per share whether you find a solo block or not. In solo mode you should notice that you are continually receiving small amounts of earnings in the primary coin even when you haven't yet found find any blocks. This is due to others finding merge-mined blocks. It's estimated that by the time a user finds a merge-mined block themselves, they will have earned 95.01% of that merge-mined blocks rewards over time in pay per share mode of other merge mined blocks. This percentage will be less if you found a solo block sooner than expected, or more if it took longer than expected to find a solo block due to luck.

Pool fees for "solo" mode (2.99%) are lower because the variance is passed onto the miner, and because fewer transaction fees, exchange fees, and other business expenses are incurred.
Solo mode provides a simple way to set up miners to support a particular coin network and solo mine without having to install and connect a coin daemon, or go through complex pool setup yourself. Solo mode also provides greater profit than does setting up a single-coin pool because you receive bonuses from coins that were merge-mined. Merge mining usually earns about 5-10% of primary coin mining, so using solo mode at Prohashing will average about 110% of earnings expected with a single-coin pool. When using "solo" mode, payout proportions are ignored for this worker.
Merge-mining profits for solo mining are credited immediately. Profits for the primary coin are not credited until the block is confirmed. Some networks require as long as 720 blocks for confirmation, so confirmation time can range between 5 minutes and 3 days. Because solo mining passes on the variance to the miner, orphaned blocks are not credited to earnings.

The "c=" parameter must be present to use "m=solo." If c= is not present or if the specified coin does not exist, then this argument will be ignored. If the target coin is not enabled for payouts or is in error, the worker will be disconnected so that it can fail over to a backup pool."


AND THIS:
"Accomplishing Specific Goals:

- To earn as much money as possible: Use no password arguments other than the "n=" argument, which specifies a worker name. The mining software contains a lot of code to detect miner settings and can usually do a better job at optimizing mining than a human can.

 - In lieu of setting up a pool for your new coin: Use "c=[coin name] m=solo." These arguments are equivalent to installing a daemon on your local computer, and earn more profit than local solo mining because merge-mining rewards are also credited to your account.

- To support a coin network without as much risk: Use "c=[coin name]" and set payout proportions to 100% in that coin. In contrast to "solo mode," mining in PPS mode provides constant rewards even if your miner finds no blocks, and still earns merge-mining rewards, in exchange for a higher fee.

- Working around KNC Titan limitations: Use "h=3" or "h=5." KNC Titans exhibit poor performance with easy coins that have frequent blocks."


AND THIS:
"Suboptimal Shares

Prohashing has implemented an algorithm to reduce the effect of stale shares as much as possible, even for users with slower internet connections. Since the pool merge-mines coins, and because each network changes blocks at different intervals requiring a work restart each time, the number of work restarts increases in proportion to the number of merge mined coins. Without intervention, the increase in work restarts would increase the number of stale shares, negating much of the advantage of merge mining.

To combat this issue, Prohashing allows suboptimal shares to be submitted. In the case of a suboptimal share, instead of completely rejecting the share because the hash for one of the coins was invalid, the pool credits you for the coins for which your work was valid. For example, if you are merge mining CHNcoin and Dogecoin, CHNcoin has a new block while Dogecoin does not, and then you submit an otherwise stale share, you will still be credited for the work on the Dogecoin network since that hash is still valid for Dogecoin. Accepting suboptimal shares allow miners to earn some money for shares that other pools would outright reject. The only time you will see a stale share with Prohashing is when all coins mined have changed blocks before your miner submits a share.

You can spot suboptimal shares in your earnings when you see a share where only one coin was mined. You can reduce suboptimal shares the same way you reduce stale shares - by improving the miner's internet connection."


AND THIS:
"Orphan Bonuses

Prohashing provides orphan bonuses, a technique that reduces the pool's rate of orphaned blocks. It is a variation of a system called "selfish mining," which is used by pool operator Clevermining. While selfish mining is not optimal for pools that mine multiple coins, the orphan bonus variation allows Prohashing to increase profitability.

In orphan bonus mining, miners receive increased payouts whenever one of Prohashing's blocks is orphaned. The payout for the next block is equal to the value of the previous block at the current price plus the value of the current block. Prohashing attempts to mine the next block on top of its previous orphaned block, therefore earning both the previous block's income and the current block's income if the current block is found. If the second block is also orphaned, then the expected value of the next block will be around three times normal. Miners end up being paid more, and the orphan rate of the pool is reduced, therefore making the coin more likely to be mined in the future. The profitability of a coin in all Prohashing charts is automatically adjusted for the orphan mining state, if it is present. No miner action is required to take advantage of this feature"

go to https://prohashing.com/ and check for yourself

plus, i was giving an example of 10ksols to keep it simple ass. i have 200 z9's and spend everyday at my farm tweaking the sols so shut your small pie hole.

They don't pay per kwh !

And what does the pool you use pay per kwh ?

what am I missing ?

And how many in this forum runs their z9 mini's at 10ksol/s ?

 i really like the idea of prohash but i looked and they are giving 13 cents per kwh. a z9 mini at 10 sols  = 1.30 perday. what am i  missing?

At prohashing you can mine zcash only or even better multiswitch between coins for equihash algorithm and you choose which other coins you wan't it converted to like BTC and or LTC and or ...
You set this in "settings".

The conversion is done at once.
You follow this "live" under "earnings".

are you saying that your z9's mine zcash and prohashing pays you in btc?

Got about 1-2% rejects

Me too same.. going to let them run all night and see

i have test 2h today with a lot of rejected...

Read under settings:
"U.S. Internal Revenue Service Information
Please indicate if you are a resident of the United States or if you qualify according to IRS guidelines found here:

 I DO live in the United States OR qualify according to the guidelines above. I DO have a United States postal address.
 I DO qualify according to the guidelines above. I DO NOT have a United States postal address.
 I DO NOT live in the United States AND DO NOT qualify according to the guidelines"

What you are required to fill in and send to them depends as you see above.
(As I understand they are doing minimum requirements which is keeping the info INCASE government require them.)

Does prohashing still require you to fill out kyc info and send you a 1099?

are you getting much rejection % on the Nicehash website?

When you choose a port for an Algorithm like port 3336 for Equihash it WILL be multiswitch UNLESS you specify a specific coin for the chosen ports algorithm like this:
Miner number 1
Pool 1:
URL: stratum+tcp://prohashing.com:3336
Worker: your_login_name_at_prohashing.com
Password: n=miner001 c=zcash

In the line Password you can see "c=zcash"
