LiteCoin Mining

[Guff]

And for hashco.ws, all you need is a Bitcoin wallet. I use MultiBit and it works nicely.

Thanks! I'm using Electrum right now. I like how you just need to type a passphrase to recover your wallet.


Any other useful tools you recommend to monitor your GPU while it's mining? I plan to remotely access my mining box. I have to keep the box in a certain location for free electricity . Will there be issues if I attempt to overclock the machine remotely?

Doing pretty good right now. I'm at about 700 hash rate.


How do I cash out? When I click on cash out on HashCow, does it pay my BTC wallet? Once I have BTC in my wallet, where do I go to exchange it for USD?

They update your account once a day, usually at midnight EST, once the BTC is in your account you can cash out to your BTC wallet.

Once you have it in your wallet you can exchange it for fiat in exchanges like campbx, bitstamp, or coinbase.

CampBX has been a great experience for me, but recently their bank removed the wire transfer option, so you can only get money out by check.

Is cash hashcow payout backed up? My payout has been pending for the last 8.5 hours.

Anyone ever run into circuit breakers going off? lol

Might need to get a little creative with outlets if I start adding more GPUs.

What do the following terms mean?

Under statistics page:
Est. Unexchanged balance
Confirmed exchanged balance

Est. Unex = BTC total of coins that need to be exchanged
Confirmed Exchanges = BTC amount of coins already exchanged.

Last I checked, they currently don't work though.... they're still fixing that.

Ah ok. Are there any stats I can use to keep track of my mining then? lol

Basically, I just want to be able to calculate some metrics, e.g., mining performance per day, number of coins per day, etc.

Currently, it would be the amount you recive at the end of the day until they get the stats working.

And I'd have to cash out each day to find out that number, right?

If you want to, although its a good idea to keep your btc in your personal wallet.

Why do you say that? Is it unsafe to cash out once a week or something?
