Bitmain Announces HASHNEST!


HASHNEST is a cloud mining service in the same realms of ZenMiner Cloud. It encompasses some capabilities of both CEX.io and ZenMiner, where ZenMiner has good ROI's and CEX.io allows you to basically resell the cloud hashing power that you previously purchased.

When you aquire hashing power, you of course need to pay a maintenance fee, but HASHNEST does a nice thing where it equates what percentage of your earnings are actually put into the fees. For instance, per GH, 37.42% of your profit goes into maintenance fees (electricity, internet, and repairs).

HASHNEST doesn't allow the resale of this hashing power but if you purchase hasing power from "mining rigs", you can resell it if you no longer feel that the miner is being profitable enough for you.

They also support scrypt mining hardware, that mine, and can be purchased with litecoin. Both SHA-256 and Scrypt algorithm hardwares have varying maintenance costs (generally because power consumption varies from hardware to hardware). So when looking into buying hashing power, check how much of your profits will be eaten up by the % based maintenance fee.

I'm currently hashing at 60GH/S on their mining farm with an average of 0.00001876 BTC/GH/Day, so basically at this rate I earn 0.0011256 BTC/Day.

Overall I think this site is easy to navigate but takes a little pursuing to get used to the layout.

BTC-Flow

Today I'll be giving a bit of a look into BTC-Flow . It's a game based bitcoin faucet that has me pretty into it. No more of the jumping from site to site clicking your way through pop ups and other fun activities. The concept of the game is that you run a  company. At first, your company mines bitcoin and has a earning rate of 0.0000015 BTC/Min and your max capacity is 0.000012 BTC. Your part in running this company is getting the bitcoin from your company either before or after your max capacity is hit. You then need to click once your bitcoin capacity is reached to put that balance into your main bank. From here you basically repeat this as much as you'd like. If you really enjoy this, you can "level" your business with bitcoin to increase capacity and earning/min at any point. If you like faucets, you need to check this out . BTC-Flow.com

Setting up a self maintaining miner (Windows GPU CPU miner)

Problem I run a 125MH/s ETH GPU mining rig but I was having issues where it would restart intermittently and when it would come back online it would obviously stop mining and i would lose mining time because of it. Solution Automatic restart  Run your miner automatically on startup This is actually a very simple way to keep your miner in check so you don't encounter much or any down time. As an added bonus, it's very simple to set up. Automatic restart Search for "task scheduler" in your windows search bar and open it. Now select "Create Task..." from the right side panel. Give your task a name and check the "run with highest privileges" checkbox Go to the "Triggers" tab and click the "New..." button. Here you should select "Daily" and select a date and time you would like this task to be run. Once you're done with your selection, click "OK" Go to the "Ac...

Mining ZCash(ZEC) on windows

I spent some time trying out a few different pieces of software to try to figure out one that works best for me. I have 2 good options for mining ZCash, both for the coin and using NiceHash to auto convert it to BTC for you. Option 1 Download the NiceHash Miner Run the miner (install steps) Put in your btc address and your worker name Run the benchmark (depending on your number of devices this can take some time, however, it's worth it). Once the benchmark has completed, simply click "Start" This option will be mining with NiceHash, however, it auto converts coins into btc. This may not be what you're looking for, so see option 2. Option 2 Download the latest release of nheqminer Extract Create a run.bat file Here's a couple examples for your run.bat file Examples AMD 1 GPU nheqminer_zcash.exe -l usa -u YOUR-ZCASH-ADDRESS-HERE -t 6 -od 0 NVIDIA 1 GPU nheqminer_zcash.exe -l usa -u YOUR-ZCASH-ADDRESS-HERE -t 6 -cd 0 ...
