My Crypto Journey Entry 8 (I Switch to AwesomeMiner)

More Mining Fun

Good day everyone and I am back with another entry into my crypto journey. Today I will be discussing my move over to awesome miner and my current experience with it and my new mining pool which its pretty funny that its just called mining pool hub(https://miningpoolhub.com/). So a little bit about awesome miner. I am loving it so far but I still have a lot to learn. When i chose the profitability miner my second rig did not take well to mining  Ethereum and would not reach the 96 mh/s it was sitting at before. So in the long run it was holding at 5.23 dollars in profit a day. But i found if I switched to cryptoknight I would be making up to 6.72 to 7.23 a day. Sadly enough the profit switching algorithm did not auto mine Electroneum which was going to get me that much in a day it would default to Monero which I had to work a work around in and not use the profit switching.

Awesome Miner

But I'll get into all of that later and first talk about Awesome miner itself(http://www.awesomeminer.com/). This mining software allows you to do a variety of things. I am actually running the primary software on my main computer the one I am currently using and remote software on the other 2 machines at this time. This is what the next picture will show with the free version.

This is my current set up with the free version going to mining pool hub. At this time I do not have a plan on auto exchanging at this time things are just going into offline wallets for storage. At this time you can see my mining has shifted from straight PIRL which i was mining for sometime to ETH(Ethereum) and ETN(Electroneum). The reason i switched over to these 2 coins is one higher daily returns and the reason for ETN was because the rx 560s are not hashing at 96mh/s on ETH anymore so I had to move them to an algorithm that they were getting the full hashing power out of. So this is what hold my daily profit at around 18 dollars right now. Since this is the free version I can have all of my machines up there. Its not a bad thing. Because the 2 other machines are just 1 GPU each. So when I get more mining rigs up and running then I will be able to set up and pay for the full plan to start with 4 rigs then climb from there. But this is the great thing about this software. It will download the mining software and start it up for you automatically if you set it up that way. So I have all of it running automatically. You can ever setup to keep and eye on it with your phone. That can be through mining pool hub or the awesome miner software itself. 

This is a look inside the menu and as you can see this one is not a profit switching this is just straight up mining one coin because if it wasn't it actually mines something that provides less profit in the long run. So sometimes the profit switching in this software isn't the best. But in the long run its not the worst way to run mining rigs. But I think I will cut this blog a bit short and next time go in depth setting Awesome Miner up and showing benchmarks for profit switching.

You all have a wonderful wonderful day.
