Built an Ethereum Mining Rig, But No Hashing Power Sent To ETH Pool, Reward For Help

in #ethereum7 years ago

Will do a longer writeup soon including the major trouble shooting spots I ran into, but running into issues with my newly built mining rig that I can't solve. Have been tinkering for days and solving all sorts of unexpected bumps in the road, but can't seem to find any information on my new problem.


I built it in a milk crate and I named it Vlad Zamrig :)


Finally got ETHos booted up


WTF!

No hash power is sent to the pool for some reason. When I google around there isn't much info available. Any ideas on why and what I can do to fix it?

Not powering this post up 100% and will give whatever SBD earned and whatever is sitting around in my wallet (just under $2) to whoever helps me out. Thanks!

I think I've got it! I'm a complete idiot for this last one, hahaha


IT'S ALIVEEEEE

Yes its alive

Cool, I built my own ethereum mining rig too and I tried to write a guide on it. Maybe it could help others, if they're having trouble :

Wish I knew more about mining, I'd help. This is kind of inspirational though. Makes me want to dig into more information about mining...even if I don't have the funds to currently set up a rig.

Well done. Check out if perhaps mining ZCash is more profitable for you. http://whattomine.com/

There was a short period of time where XMR/ZEC were more profitable according to WTM, but ETH has consistently been the most profitable. My plan was to mine for a few weeks, see if it beats the rate of electricity, and then mine ETH until it switches to PoS, then switch to the most profitable coin.
