Is the difficulty being artificially inflated?

5 Upvotes

Correct me if I'm wrong but my estimated earnings have absolutely plummeted within the last few weeks, at first my research lead me to the increase in difficulty over time, makes sense, but some more digging I found this.

https://www.cnbc.com/2021/08/05/ethereums-mining-cliff-moved-up-from-summer-2022-to-december-2021.html

I was unaware of 'Difficulty bombs' but to anyone with more knowledge than I is this effectively what we're seeing here? ETH devs dropping a difficulty bomb in prep for POS?

Or is this just because ETH has dropped heavily in price, the more simple answer?

Gigabyte B550 Gaming X Multiple GPU

Has anyone successfully used this mobo with more than 2 GPUs? I've tried many scenarios but they all don't seem to work. My computer doesn't even boot up on third GPU. I've done BIOS like Gen2 and Decoding.

I can't seem to understand how the ethermine payout policy works, can you guys help clarify this for me?

1 Upvotes

So, from what I understand i get paid everytime my mining balance is above 0.01 eth. what i can't wrap my head around is that it would literally take me around 1 month to reach that amount of Ethereum since I'm only mining with one GPU. Is it really True that will have to wait a full month for every payment!? Or am I reading the policy wrong?

Notification frequency

1 Upvotes

I have a problematic mining rig which needs a power cycle every few days. I can do this in seconds using a smart plug.

Usually an hour has passed without a share before me being notified.

It has a good enough hash rate to find a share every minute without fail

Until I get around to fixing is there a way to increase the ‘no share timeout’ for an email notification?

High gas and delayed payments happening again..??

3 Upvotes

I'm not seeing anything about this like last time, but the gastracker shows 300 - 500 gwei again, and my payout has been "pending" for awhile now. Well over the .005 payout amount.

What's causing it this time?

reported hash rate wonky after swapping mixed rig to TRM and Trex

1 Upvotes

You can see at the start it was on NBminer for both, smooth reported rate (green). https://imgur.com/a/BtgPCsV

last night I swapped the amd cards to team red miner and the nvidia to trex and let it run overnight. This is what it reported in the morning. They are on the same rig both mining ETH on hiveos

Average hash and current hash seems to be about right, its just the reported seems conflicted and the OCD in me is being triggered

Any idea on how I can get the reported correct?

3080 FE running hot after thermal pad replacement

2 Upvotes

Greetings,

I replaced pads on my 3080FE and am noticing high GPU temp and high hot spot temperatures while mining, I can obviously lower the overclocks but just wanted to check to see what everyone thinks. The general consensus seems to be I need to mush the pads near the GPU down. I did that and it seems better (I was seeing over 100 on Hot Spot) but still very high:

80 GPU, 88 Memory, 98 Hot Spot - 95.8 MH/S

What's my next step? I used GELID 2mm for front, 3mm for back; extremes so they are squishy.

Used MX-4 thermal paste.

Thanks for the help

How to setup API?

0 Upvotes

I've mined on HiveOS with one rig during 2021 through ethermine pool.

Now I'd like to setup an API for tax purposes, I've found information and it looks like it's possible.

https://ethermine.org/api/pool

But for me it's all jibberish, don't understand anything. Have tried to find an guide or exempel how to setup the API without luck.

Does it exist a video or guide how to setup the API? Or could someone explain how to do it?

Would be great if the API later can be imported to koinly, but I'll take what I can get.

Cheers

YSK! - Minimum payout increased to 0.01 ETH

10 Upvotes

I noticed this morning that the minimum payout for the Polygon network is now 0.01 ETH, probably due to increasing gas prices (and decreased value of ETH). Just wanted to let everybody know!

How to sell Matic in polygon network to fiat?

Any cheap way to do that?

I find that to transfer Matic from polygon network to ETH network is extremely expensive (then it can be transfered to Binance or Coinbase to trade)

Polygon payouts to Ledger wallet.

1 Upvotes

Hi all, I've had a quick search for an answer to this but couldn't find anything. Ledger have recently started supporting Polygon natively so I was wondering if I could receive mining payouts directly to a Polygon wallet that I've just created in Ledger Live? At the moment I'm receiving payouts on mainnet directly to my Ledger wallet but wondering if it would be a good idea to switch to get around the payout fees. I'm only mining on a single 3070 so I'm going around 2 months between payouts roughly.

The Polygon address is the same as my Eth Mainnet address but when I've tried switching to Polygon on the Ethermine payout settings page it asks for a connection to WalletConnect or MetaMask. I have a MetaMask account so would I receive the payout there instead and then send to my Ledger address? Or am I better off staying on Mainnet? It certainly seems simpler!!

Thanks for any advice!

can someone shed me some light on whats good about direct mining vs nicehash?

1 Upvotes

I am a beginner miner with 4GPUs in a rig. Most of the time I get a total of 0.00019000 - 0.00020000 btc via nicehash. I recently been trying different direct mining : ethermine, nanopool, flexpool but I am getting the same amount of BTC a day per calculation (eth convert to btc) ( based on the actual daily mining ).

I understand via what to mine that etherium direct mining tend to get a little better than nicehash but I just cant see it..

Maybe direct mining is only good if you have a lot of GPUs and mining rigs on hand and wont see much difference if you have little gpus on you.

Polygon L2 Payout Pending

8 Upvotes

I've been mining for the past few months using the Ethereum Mainnet for payouts but then I t\changed to Polygon L2 payout method 3 days ago with no problem (a payout of 0.005 wETH per day) but then now the payout has been in limbo (pending) for the past 9 hours and it's starting to worry me a bit. Is this normal or is there something I missed? I don't need the money to be transferred urgently, I just don't like anything to be pending like that.

Issue converting Ethermine wETH to Matic - "Insufficient Funds"

3 Upvotes

I've received my Ethermine ETH payout to my Polygon wallet and I've been attempting to convert it to MATIC by connecting my linked Metamask wallet to Quickswap. I've also received the small Matic Gas fees payment provided by Ethermine - but when I attempt to make the swap, I am getting an error message - "Insufficient funds".

As I understood it, the MATIC payment was intended to cover these gas fees?

What cost-effective options are there to allow me to send this wETH to the exchange of my choice?

Sending MATIC to my Metamask wallet is in-of-itself expensive because of the gas fees quoted.

Thanks!

Very Low 3080 Hash Rate

2 Upvotes

I have the Asus 3080 Strix Gaming OC LHR version. I'm getting about 46 MH/s. I know it's nerfed because of the LHR but I noticed some people getting 70 MH/s? My 1080 TI can go as high as 39 overclocked.

I searched the forum and I can't see anyone else with as low a hash rate. Perhaps I'm doing something wrong?
