6300 is the lowest I have seen since I started this crap. Here is to hoping this coin stuff doesn't get punched in the dick.

[curio]

I'm more interested in what it looks like by the year 2022, not what the small dip at the very end of the chart is doing today.

[Riptide]

I expect it to slide under 5000 and possibly go much lower than that. For those that mine and hold that could be a good thing. For those who mine and sell to fiat regularly they are going to be getting out.

[curio]

This is the lowest production I've seen, suck

[KAC]

Indeed. It isn’t even paying the bills now. My AC compressor gave way so 350 bucks for that down the drain.

[andino]

My Nicehash hasn't been on for days. It's running. It's just not profitable enough to mine.

Price down below $6k; but btc/day earn rates are up a lot today

I don't get it lol

[GTwannabe]

BTC down to 5888. Burn, baby burn!

[curio]

I'm making $20-$30/day right now, so yeah keep burning LOL

edit: try to stop the trolling k guys?

[BababooeyHTJ]

That's 20-30usd a day at current BTC prices? That'll be really nice once BTC bounces back.

Yeah I don't know what the eff is going on; but it went from .001 btc/day to .004 btc/day this morning

And now it's going back down again. Production is wildly fluctuating on Lyrarev2/Verge

[KAC]

So I updated my miner and now comp rebooted twice since I left home. I hate this crap.

[Riptide]

My vega rig has run good since I moved it out to my parent's house. I've shut it down once remotely w/teamviewer and had them unplug it due to a t-storm. And been over there once to shut it down for dusting/maintenance.

About a month so far so good. The vegas I run in this workstation at the house have been OK for the most part. Couple crashes due to overclocks or something else going on. I'm able to tend it much easier being physically present most of the time so for the most part not a problem.

[KAC]

It is the X16R algo that puts unnecessary load on PSU. I just put power limit down to 90 and all is fine now. Anyways earning is shite right now.

They look about the same as they have looked in the past 3 weeks.

they had a game with them 2 weeks ago and the strix was 829 not 898 to 950

The Strix is still $830. I looked at the card literally an hour ago when you posted the link. It's not that price now, because the sold and shipped by Newegg card is gone. Probably because it sold out. Like it does every day or two or however long it takes to get them back in stock.

EDIT: Here it is, it just sold out is all. Still $830. It does this a lot, and will likely be back in stock in a day or two like always. I'm in the market for a 2nd 1080Ti, and have been watching the prices like a hawk every day. Used as well. The ebay market is finally slowly coming down too, and there are cards being listed for $650 and up. I'm patiently waiting for a used card in the $500 range, possibly cheaper during one of Ebays 20-25% off everything sales.

That algo is designed to be ASIC resistant. It is essentially an "algo switching algo" and randomly swaps around between something like 16 different algorithms. When I mined RVN I kept my TDP at 80% and clocks at default or very mild overclock.

[KAC]

I know about the 16 algos switching but it is not only me facing restarts. It is quite a few people and setting power limit down fixed it. Just FYI for anyone who maybe facing similar problems.

[curio]

Yeah I've been using 80% for a while now; since I lost that motherboard

No problems now

[Riptide]

Had a severe t-storm last week and was able to shut down my vega rig remotely with teamviewer. Mom unplugged the power strip from the wall for me. Pretty handy being able to do that.

Those cards are running memory/HBM temps in the mid 50s even with 77 degree ambient (Fahrenheit) temps. And they are, so far, stable. Not much to complain about there.

Still mining with the two vega cards in this workstation. Between the two separate systems getting around 17 kh/s.

[KAC]

Yup, moms are pretty handy

[andino]

My mining is off more than it is on these days.

Looks like I am going to have to adjust my per day profits lower to turn it on.

[KAC]

I made 560 boners last cycle. Too low.

[andino]

Yeah, I'm showing $1.46 a day with 2 1080ti's....

$.73 a day per card really isn't worth the time or electrical costs...

[KAC]

I am really thinking about turning it off for a couple of months. My miner is earning less than my incremental AC bill right now.

Do it to it.

Taint worth the heat and wasted energy

[curio]

I'm still making double what it costs in electricity, but I'm not relying on AC in that room since I don't have to; so the hit is less

[Riptide]

Good. The more that shut theirs off the better for me.

[KAC]

Seems X16R keeps crashing my rig. First power at 90 was working. Then at 85. Then at 82 and now it even crashed at that. I turned it off and will continue to bone the normal Lyra2Rev instead. I think the constant switching is degrading my PSU or something. I am already at full limit on the PSU. At least with other algos my cards run 100% power limit.

[andino]

$1.38 for 2 1080ti's per day.

[curio]

X16R has been mostly running for me for a while now; no crashing

[KAC]

It crashes because it puts a lot of load on PSU. Given I am not pushing 1600 W PSUs I think I won’t be able to run it. I lose a buck a day but it is better than system crashing in the background and then me not finding out about it until 10-12 hours pass.

[curio]

Lyra2rev2 is up again
