Espero que me digan cual es hoy la mejor opción para poner en marcha mi PC que junta tierra.

I'm trying to find out whether the Pinecone R1X RandomX ASIC miner actually exists as working hardware.

Has anyone here:

• Seen a real R1X unit in person?
• Received one from a seller?
• Seen independent photos, videos, or actual mining results from a working unit?

I'm not looking for product listings, promotional images, or manufacturer specifications. I'm specifically interested in independent evidence that the hardware exists and works.

Any firsthand information would be appreciated. Thanks!

This post suggests that the EPYC 7742 would suffer a 30% drop in hashrate on RandomX V2

https://np.reddit.com/r/AskMonero/comments/1sy55h6/is_randomx_v2_nerfing_highend_cpus_my_recent/

The benchmarks here suggest that the Zen 2 architecture's hashrate would decrease roughly 85%

CPU, power (W), v1 (H/s), v2 (H/s), decrease

Ryzen 9 3900X, 70.62, 12197, 10765, 88.3%
Ryzen 9 3900X, 67.98, 12259, 10233, 83.5%
Ryzen 9 3700X, 88, 8624, 7361, 85.4%

https://gist.github.com/SChernykh/6058ecf01c929883b9d19c7eeadc8809

However, the Zen 5 (9950x) and very oddly Zen 1 (Ryzen 7 1700X) does not seem to have a drop at all.

Does anyone know how exactly would the AMD EPYC 7k62 suffer on RandomX V2?

Why is the Zen 2 architecture (but not the Zen 1) hit especially hard by RandomX V2?

Well i work in a place where i see 10-30 usbs everyday amd i stumbled across this very interesting piece of script that i want to understand.

What it does is basically it masks the folder of any input usb and puts it into a shortcut that if you wish to access you need to give it admin privileges upon that it runs a background process of implementing a hidden minner in your system 32 file and it does this with every usb you stick on that pc and on and on
Can anyone refer me to a place to learn more about the source code of it or a repo that explains the workflow of that and which tools are used against this kind of attacks

This was a huge problem for me as the situation took long and i need to understand what is actually this kind of app/script
it does as following :

1) you pug a USB drive for the first time, it runs normally.

2) the second time you pug it in you see inside that usb a (Shortcut) with the same name of the usb you plugged in.

3) when you click it to access the files that you have on you usb it asks for AD.

4) then it runs scripts that takes a hidden XMR minner all the ways to the System32 folder of you PC as: C:Windows/system/wsvsc or wscvv

5)the minner is suspended when you open apps like task manager or monitor apps or even using ore that 70% of the cpu or hitting + 90'

what i really want to know is how is that possible and if someone has a repo or a source code that i can learn and see how they could write scripts like this so i can know more how to defend against it and thanks <3

so i know there are a lot of videos of how to mine xmr but its all so confusing i want to use mini p2p pool to mine but i dont know how to set it up can yall please help me out thanks

We just released HiveOS and mmpOS packages for parnianminer, the CPU miner for ParnianCoin (PARC), a PascalCoin fork using RandomHash2.

Like RandomX, RandomHash2 is designed to be CPU-friendly and ASIC-resistant, so if you already run CPU rigs it's an easy coin to test.

- Custom miner, no packages to install (portable Linux x64)

- Picks the pool port by hashrate automatically, with a backup pool

- Hashrate and shares show up in the dashboard

Guide + downloads:

https://github.com/ParnianCoin/parniancoin-miner/releases/tag/v2.4.1-rigs

It's a small project growing organically. Disclosure: I'm part of the team. If you have spare CPU on your rigs, we'd love feedback, especially on hashrate numbers for different CPUs.

The mini version of p2pool has been down for over 24 hours. https://mini.p2pool.observer/miners

Does anyone know if this is still maintained? Will mining still work?

OK I'm new to Monero Mining, for now just using Monero Wallet and my sync'd local node to mine Monero on Ubuntu 24.04.

Have received a couple shares so have a little in my wallet. Initially on the observer - https://mini.p2pool.observer/ - I saw the shares along with a notice that I needed to update my p2pool from 4.17.1 to 4.18.1, which I did.

Now for the last 36 hours when I check the P2Pool Mini Observer it says no shares for this wallet. The wallet address is correct. I got the shares from Mini P2Pool. I don't understand why it no longer knows about the shares it sent me. Anyone else having this issue?

I wanted to join the Raffle on the Observer but now with no shares showing I of course can't join it.

Anyone know if there's a way to contact the Observer admins via reddit?

Thx All.

What operating system are you using to mine monero (xmr) ?

at what point does it become worth it to pay for hive os?

Is anyone running a lot of rigs and not using hive os? what os do you use if you want to mine a lot but don't want to pay for hive os?

Starting with $25k-$30k to put into equipment. Electricity is too expensive where i live (Northeast USA). DM if interested we can discuss! Open to joining an existing farm as well!

So I've been messing around with Monero, P2Pool and Tari merge-mining, and getting all of it running together was kind of a hassle. I wanted one place to just see what's going on, so I started building it for myself and it turned into an actual app.

It's called Triple X. It runs a Monero node and P2Pool (plus Tari merge-mining if you want it) and gives you a web dashboard with sync status, hashrate, workers, found blocks and logs. Payouts go straight to your own wallet, no fees. It's free and open source, and you can run it on Umbrel/5tratumOS.

Stuff you should know before you try it:

It's v1.2-RC2, so it's not battle-tested yet. That's the whole reason I'm posting. There's a wallet tab but it's totally optional, it's just there if you don't have a wallet yet. If you do, use your own address and ignore it. How long monerod takes to sync depends on your hardware, so I can't give you a number.

If you give it a shot, I'd love to hear how it went. Was the install confusing? Did anything break? Is something missing you'd want to see? Even "I got stuck here" is super helpful.

Hi reddit, some time has gone by since my last post here ( https://www.reddit.com/r/MoneroMining/s/rlhQmzEXHG ), great progress has been made since, the performance is almost doubled both on ARM64 and AMD64 platforms. The most significant good news are the performance gains in scenarios that dont expose SharedArrayBuffer. The performance claim is not as hot when it comes to AMD64 (10% in full mode). You can test the performance out on a demo site thats linked in the repo and see for yourself :)

im making a xmr mining software later ill add gpu mining support probably a separate cli for that then ill make a gui for windows that wraps the clis for mining

point of the post is i want recommendations to add to the miners plus when i gather a community i wanna start my own mining pool so like VPS and everything

Hey, i have already figured out that the monero gui application apparently is not the efficient method of mining monero. however, i'd like to use it for now.
I am mining with around 3.5kH/s on the mini chain. i have not set any flag.
does the gui know that my wallet is the one in the application or do I need to set additional settings?
Do I have any information on how my node/chain is performing? Am I just one day have a fraction of an xmr in my account?

i made a crypto miner using ai and lil bit of coding knowledge its pretty cool ngl and using 10 cores on both mine and xmrig mine out preforms xmrig by like 1 kh/s

I am sincerely sorry and apologize for my previous post.
Unfortunately, I fell for an LLM hallucination 😞

However, to make up for it, I kept the concept and changed the implementation.

✨✨ Updated Instructions for =<5 KH/s Mining ✨✨

In essence, each miner gets their own P2pool instance and all payouts go to their wallet address, NOT the P2pool wallet address (via a router — see the website)

Current Max Concurrent Instances: 10
Hardware:
• ThreadRipper Pro 3975wx
• 128GB DDR4 2Rx8 ECC RDIMM 2666
• 5TB Storage
• OS: Ubuntu 26.04 LTS

No “Donations” in the service. It’s totally Free.

I would highly appreciate it if you’d checkout the Donations page. It would greatly help with the hardware & Internet costs.

Basically a guy in a monero mining Telegram group said that he has small rig that gets 1 MH/s and he’s renting another 4 MH/s in Nicehash so he finally solo mines with 5 MH/s which lets him get aprox block every 48h. I‘ve been doing numbers with the current prices of Nicehash and I always end up in negative (losing money) as Nicehash compute is always more expensive than the return.

I come to this reddit to ask if someone here is doing the same thing and or ir I understood the method wrong.

sorry bad English is not my first language.

Hi all,

Last week, I saw a couple of posts from miners with 1.5 KH/s and another less than 5 KH/s.

I thought, well, can they use my existing, already up and running infrastructure since it’s running anyway, wouldn’t cost me anything. Contribute to the community?
So, I did:
### Please visit https://xmrpool.tech4ai.net/smallminers.html ###

No fees.
P2pool.
Nano side chain.
Full, dedicated and pruned Monero Node.
Non custodial — miners will get payouts directly to their wallets. I, personally, am not involved in payouts, Coinbase transactions, Block Templates, etc.

One question:
I am ready to direct one of my miners if it would help the overall hashrate and Share finding. But i don’t want it to hinder either, so which should i add?
• Epyc miners: avg. ~43KH/s.
• Ryzen 9 9950x: avg. ~25KH/s.
• Ryzen 9 3950x: avg. ~15-17KH/s.

Thank you in advance and I truly hope this will help.

Hi everyone,

I'm trying to understand an unusual issue we experienced with SupportXMR. I have done several controlled tests and would like to know if anyone has seen similar behavior or has an explanation.

Setup

We had 3 physical machines mining XMR on SupportXMR using XMRig:

• Intel Core i3-10100: ~2.0 kH/s
• Intel Core i3-1005G1: ~0.8 kH/s
• AMD Athlon Silver 3050U: ~0.9 kH/s

Total local hashrate was approximately 3.7 kH/s, stable, with essentially no rejected shares.

Everything had been working normally on SupportXMR.

What happened

On September 27, the pool-assigned difficulty suddenly became extremely high for machines using the same wallet.

Before the issue, one miner was receiving jobs around 88k difficulty and submitting accepted shares regularly.

Then we observed difficulty values such as:

• ~5.7M
• ~6.8M
• and eventually approximately 43.8M

The other miners connected to SupportXMR also started receiving unusually high difficulty values.

XMRig remained connected to the pool and continued receiving jobs. There were no authentication errors and no rejected-share problem.

However, accepted shares became extremely infrequent because of the difficulty, and the SupportXMR dashboard/API eventually showed:

• Hashrate: 0 H/s
• Workers: 0
• Valid shares counter stopped increasing

Tests performed

1. Rebooted all miners.
   • No change.
2. Tested different SupportXMR ports (including 3333 and 5555).
   • Same behavior.
3. Tested SupportXMR fixed difficulty using the wallet+difficulty syntax.

For example:

• +85000
• +35000
• +40000

SupportXMR immediately honored the requested difficulty.

At those difficulties, XMRig started finding and reporting accepted shares normally again.

However, the SupportXMR dashboard/API accounting still did not appear to update.

1. Removed the fixed-difficulty suffix and tested the normal wallet again on port 3333.

The pool again assigned unusually high VarDiff values (approximately 1M–7M depending on the miner), despite individual hashrates being only around 0.8–2.0 kH/s.

A/B test with MoneroOcean

To rule out the wallet, XMRig installation, hardware, and basic network connectivity, I took one of the affected miners and connected it to MoneroOcean using:

• the same XMR wallet
• the same XMRig installation
• the same machine
• the same Internet connection

It connected immediately.

MoneroOcean initially assigned a difficulty around 320k, an accepted share appeared roughly 35 seconds later, and the difficulty subsequently adjusted to approximately 197k.

The MoneroOcean dashboard also immediately recognized the wallet and worker.

We then moved the whole farm to MoneroOcean.

The farm is currently running normally with 4 physical workers at approximately 4.2–4.4 kH/s, continuously submitting shares with zero rejected shares.

What I'm trying to understand

Has anyone experienced a similar situation with SupportXMR where:

• VarDiff suddenly becomes several million or tens of millions for a relatively small miner;
• XMRig remains connected and continues receiving jobs;
• forcing a lower difficulty restores normal share frequency;
• but the SupportXMR dashboard/API accounting stops updating?

I'm particularly interested in knowing whether this could be related to:

• VarDiff state getting stuck;
• wallet/session state;
• public IP/NAT state;
• Stratum session handling;
• or a pool-side accounting/backend issue.

I don't want to conclude that this is necessarily a SupportXMR bug, because I don't have visibility into the pool backend. I'm mainly trying to understand the behavior and determine what additional test would be useful.

I can provide sanitized XMRig log excerpts showing the difficulty changes if that would help.

Thanks!

Mining Rig (xmrig on p2ool)

1500w

CPU : 7950x

Card mére : miniforum, MSI , JGINYUE

Only one memory card per Card mère (5600,CL40,DDR5, 8G)

For miniforum 2 cards memory (5600 also)

For each card ; 130w 17KH. > 187 kh for all

So 187kh for 1500w

8 4⁄187 h /w

The cpus, will be second hand (not locked). Hiveos for each rig.
