[Add Feature] Ability to Speculative Mine specific algo & pool while still staying alive for MRR & setting prices based on most profitable algo

[platinum4]

Hi,

I want to spec mine some coins on another pool or even just zergpool, but I want that to be top priority above mining Ethash (most profitable).

Is there a way to add to pools as top priority speculative.txt so I can have it do RunBefore commands and load my speculative mining choice but still watchdog all pools and take rentals from MRR when they come in.

Running an empty MM with high LowerFloor (so it won't mine anything if not rented) is pointless since I have to watch the machine whole time in case MRR rental comes in.

[platinum4]

I still would want to set a LowerFloor so when it's exceeded, it kicks out speculative mining and goes back to Ethash.

Algorithm is 'Enabled = true' or solo/party on zerg?

[platinum4]

{ "Enabled": true, "AverageProfit": "45 min", "Wallet": "LTC", "SpecifiedCoins": { "x16r": [ "RVL", "only"] }, "EnabledAlgorithms": "x16r", "DisabledAlgorithms": null } This just disables all algos on Zergpool and still mines Ethash on Nicehash. I want it to mine x16r with priority OVER Ethash but still want MRR to set prices based on Ethash, so I can't disable it on NH

[platinum4]

I wanna make this a carat like when MRR is rented I want to set an algo and pool as #1 priority even if it's not more profitable than #1 profitable algo

Like when people rent at bad price and MM still forces it to mine to MRR

[platinum4]

This way I can mine some ergo and flux and stuff and diversify instead of just mine to NH or MPH because Ethash is most profitable always

[Quake4]

I want it to mine x16r with priority OVER Ethash but still want MRR to set prices based on Ethash, so I can't disable it on NH Its do it in zergpool.config.txt: "EnabledAlgorithms": [ "X16r" ],

[platinum4]

I did this and it removed all other algos from Zergpool except for x16r, then began mining on NICEHASH. Why.

[platinum4]

I think you need to add in Algorithms.txt or in each pools a "PriorityAlgorithm" and for Zerg also PrioritySpecifiedCoin

[Quake4]

I did this and it removed all other algos from Zergpool except for x16r, then began mining on NICEHASH. Why. Possibly, you enable other algos (in NH config or algorithm.txt). Check ^ in MM window. Set all algos to default (not enabled). Enabled algorithm - is priority to mine with profit check from All enabled algos (if one enabled, MM must mine only it).

[Quake4]

algorithm.txt

EnabledAlgorithms [string array] - set of enabled (prioritized) algorithms.
If the value is null or empty, this means that all algorithms are enabled from the all pools
otherwise only the specified algorithms are prioritized on all pools.

[pool].config.txt

EnabledAlgorithms [string array] - set of enabled (prioritized) algorithms.
If the value is null or empty, this means that all algorithms are enabled from the pool
otherwise only the specified algorithms are prioritized.

[Quake4]

EnabledAlgorithms is it a PriorityAlgorithm, which one you wanted

[platinum4]

I know what the documentation says, please show me a working example where you have Zergpool mining x16r and have Ethash still enabled but not mining.

I do not think it works like you have typed out in the documentation, I think you think it works but have not tried it.

zergpool.config.txt

{
    "AverageProfit":  "3 hour",
    "SpecifiedCoins":  null,
    "EnabledAlgorithms": [ "CryptonightGPU" ],
    "PartyPassword":  null,
    "DisabledAlgorithms":  null,
    "Enabled":  true
}

[Quake4]

^ - priority (EnabledAlgo, solo/party)

some time later (4344 changed to 4347)

[Quake4]

if is you use Master/Slave, you must setup on Master. Setting up pools on the Slave does not affect anything (exclude apipoolproxy and mrr).

[platinum4]

Hi, I am not using master/slave, I will check on this after work; how many rounds does it take to take effect?

[Quake4]

one

[platinum4]

OK, this seems to work when selecting a different algo, but now I have a deeper question.

If I set Ethash to enabled for MPH it disables Ethash on NH, since NH is more profitable I want to set MRR based on NH profitability but I want to mine ETH at MPH so I can have ETH.

What compare statement do you need to add?

[Quake4]

;) set upper value in "Target" for MRR.

[platinum4]

Gotta be an easier / better answer than that yeah?

[Quake4]

where is it easier to change one value? why invent heroic difficulties for yourself, so that they can be heroically solved later?

[platinum4]

I guess man, I take pride on setting the right prices though so I fall cheaper than most others, and stay rented near 24/7

Just seemed like something that was possible, I'm OK with how it is now I guess.

[Quake4]

change "target" from default 50 to 60. after successful rent, price is raised to "Increase": 5 percent value

[platinum4]

Won't get rented at 60 @ 0.1545 electricity, too high

[platinum4]

That might work for a 1070 or RX 6600 XT not for 30-series though; too profitable already

[platinum4]

I'm set at 42.5 which is 40 + 1 for MM + 1 for MM+MRR + 0.5 increase for myself (dev fee from https://github.com/Quake4/MindMiner/issues/780)

[platinum4]

Code appears to work as intended

[Quake4]

I don't understand your logic. Suppose: profit on Nicehash: 5000 sat profit on MPH: 4600 sat difference of 8.7% set Target to 42.5 + 8.7 = 50% I don't understand that you are stuck with the profit figures on NiceHash.

[Quake4]

The main thing is that you earn more on MRR than your current profit. Its regulate for Target in MRR config.
