Is it still profitable to mine XMR solo?
-
Inge-
is hw paid off and electricity free?
-
Inge-
Then sure.
-
cyllos[m]
I have a server running 24/7 with 16 threads, so HW is fine, electricity is not free but the machine is always on
-
nonie
You need to know how much you pay for one kWh. Should be shown on your bill. And you need to messure the power consumed by your server.
-
nonie
ok- wait solo mining.
-
nonie
At least you should calculate how much you pay for your lottery ticket for one year. You can not really calculate a profit from here.
-
cyllos[m]
<nonie "At least you should calculate ho"> Or pool mining
-
cyllos[m]
I pay 0,27 EUR/kWh, and my usage is currently 300w, I don't know usage when mining though
-
Inge-
At that electricity price, I severely doubt you will make any profit mining
-
nonie
Ok lets assume 300Watt => 0,3kW * 0,27 EUR/kWh = 0,08 EUR/h. So you pay 8Ct per hour *24 *30 ~ 57 EUR per month.
-
cyllos[m]
Yeah thats about it
-
cyllos[m]
So nah?
-
nonie
You can not predict the price and network hashrate. If the network hashrate drops you could maybe find 10 blocks a year if it goes up you maybe find 0 or 1. Same with price. Soloming is like buying a lottery ticket.
-
Inge-
But please do support the network :)
-
nonie
If you want to support the network you could just run one thread and forget about it. If the server is running anyway - why not.
-
cyllos[m]
How big is the current blockchain?
-
cyllos[m]
Might host a full node then :)
-
dEBRUYNE
70-75 GB

cyllos[m]
Thanks!
-
cyllos[m]
That is doable
-
cyllos[m]
And the average network troughput?
-
cyllos[m]
If I were to connect to some other nodes, not act as a public one
-
RoundandRound
anyone now possible causes of
-
RoundandRound
Error starting server: Failed to bind IPv4 (set to required)
-
RoundandRound
running monerod 0.15.0.1 on debian
-
moneromooo
A test with a connect only node yielded about 1 GB/day.
-
moneromooo
Dropped by about a third with 6243. Will drop by another third once everyone uses 6243.
-
moneromooo
I did not upload blocks in that test. All that is extra and depends on whether anyone tries to sync off you.
-
moneromooo
--limit-rate-up and --limit-rate-down can be used to control rate fairly coarsely.
-
moneromooo
RoundandRound: most likely some process is already bound on the port it tries to bind to.
-
moneromooo
Typically monerod.
-
moneromooo
netstat/ss should show it.
-
RoundandRound
ah, thanks. could have figured that out myself really :)
-
gingeropolous
moneromooo, total of 2/3rd drop in a nodes network throughput, and you title the PR "some bandwidth savings". love it.
-
moneromooo
One thing I noticed that's kinda funny: long int ms = (long int)(delay * 100); and delay is seconds.
-
moneromooo
Yet, it seems to hit the right limits. There must be another off by 10 somewhere :)
-
RoundandRound
by the way, whats the cheapest direct exchange for xmr -> btc? used xmr.to and fixedfloat in the past, is there a cheaper service?
-
maxwilliamson
can I run two instances of rpc at same time?
-
moneromooo
Yes. Though not with the same wallet file.
-
maxwilliamson
I meant the same wallet file :(
-
maxwilliamson
in case one might fail
-
maxwilliamson
or does duplicating the wallet work? same wallet, different file and rpc per file
-
moneromooo
That is why I said file, yes :)
-
moneromooo
However, if you use hte same wallet with two files, only one of them will know, eg, what one off tx secret key was used to send a tx.
-
maxwilliamson
ah, doesn't matter it will be read only
-
moneromooo
Then it should be just fine.
-
maxwilliamson
hmmn.
-
maxwilliamson
what about subaddresses?
-
maxwilliamson
if I create a subaddress in file 1 rpc and then create subaddress in file 2 rpc what happens? presumably it will return the same subaddress?
-
moneromooo
It will, for the same indices.
-
maxwilliamson
thx, helped a lot
-
maxwilliamson
can I generate subaddress of a specific index? like generating 379th subaddress
-
moneromooo
Not without creating the ones before it (using the current tooling).
-
nonie
cool - 2/3rd drop in network throughput - in the p2p network code?
-
moneromooo
You did notice the part about not taking into account the historical block data, right ?
-
gingeropolous
right, its more just the routine p2p stuff
-
nonie
nice. nice.
-
gingeropolous
am i right?
-
nonie
An "off by 1 bug" is pretty common. but off by 10 , XD.
-
moneromooo
Yes.
-
alexhugo
how do I compile 0.15.2 shell client, because it only compiles gui and server
-
moneromooo
The command line wallet you mean ? There's no 0.15.0.2 tag on that repo (I assume you mean 0.15.0.2).
-
alexhugo
yes
-
ndorf
sounds like you're building the GUI repo, build from this one instead:
github.com/monero-project/monero
-
alexhugo
v0.15.0.2
-
alexhugo
ah 2 repos
-
dEBRUYNE
Also there is no CLI v0.15.0.2 release, so you will have to utilize the v0.15.0.1 tag
