Suprnova's ZCash Pool zec.suprnova.cc

Hey, I’m running sarath’s miner on Ubuntu Server 16.04, and it works great for about an hour . . . after that, the H/s and Sol/s drop to 0/0 and stay there on repeat, no other console messages.

Is it something wrong with the miner set up, or the connection to the pool, or what’s up?

You need to restart the miner frequently, thats a known issue, look around here, you’ll find some restart scripts as well

I’m curious are people mining to ZEC or going directly to BTC Wallets? Is one better than the other? I’m on Suprnova hitting ZEC.

Why would anyone mine ZEC for BTC, losing all the advantage of the nice low-supply market volatility. Mine ZEC and sell during the short but regular pumps to the greedy fintech traders/investors, multiplying all your mining rewards at no cost. I always considered pools which pay out only BTC almost the same type of scam like cloud mining.

waiting for my payout now for around an hr…is there a problem with the wallet again?

Nope, whats your opid ?

The opid “…94e2” failed and was recredited already - you can withdraw that again

Understood and agree. I was just curious as to why some people are going the BTC route on some other threads. Thanks and the reply from you further above was also enlightening!

yep thats mine :smiley: awesome oc^^

It’s for people who want to be somehow involved in mining many coins but don’t want to learn how to do it and how to store these coins and exchange them. The next level of igmorance is cloud mining, for people who don’t even want to touch any hardware or learn anything at all and still have the feeling they are mining somehow. Obviously both business models scam most of the revenues and the clueless client just gets some simulated revenues shown in his dashboard.

It is known since 2009 that the only legit mining is what you do yourself with your own hardware, with your own knowledge, fully controlled by yourself. It is okay to point your miners at a legit pool that is transparent and doesn’t scam your revenues. But never rent out your hashing power or install some minergate scam software.

Still havinf this issue qhen I try to edit my account and add a new t adress…

Failed to update your account: Failed to update your account

That means that address is already in use, you have to use a new one

Thanks.

Gonna change the address then.

@ocminer how can I connect to the pool if I’m behind a proxy? Where can I set the proxy configuration? I’m using Windows 0.3a version

Hey jack, what kind of proxy ? would a port 80/443 port be enough for you ?

Yes, normal http/s connections are allowed. Other non standard ports are probably blocked
So far I can’t even resolve suprnova.cc address

Try 37.187.150.11:80

I’ve just tried but I got this message:

The 37.187.150.11 page isn’t working

37.187.150.11 didn’t send any data.
ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE

It’s a stratum port, not a webpage :slight_smile:

Edit: Ah you want to reach the page behind a proxy or you want to mine behind a proxy ???

I need to mine behind a proxy! :slight_smile:
