[ANN] [XMG] MAGI | CPU mining | mPoW | mPoS | [MagiPay]

I was interested about this coin because it made sense to mine with a PI.

On https://xmg.minerclaim.net top 15 users are making more than 300KH/s...Top 1 is making more than 1600..come on...


Please enforce the limits..

Not my business ofc but even with normal to high block reward (20-40 XMG) you'll barely make more than 1-2 coins/month with 10-12 kh/s at current network/mining state, maybe it's better to invest $5-10/month simply buying coins?

You're right, I did this for three years and sold the last of my 300K XMG last month.
In the meantime selling high, buying back at low price.
I'm laughing about all these guys mining dust with their free energy.
I restarted buying back XMG now.  (but anxiously waiting for bigger price drop)

cant do anything with Bittrex right now cos the magi wallet is inactive.

as in the words of bittrex support
"XMG had a fork issue with a newer release so we are waiting for the network to stabilize before upgrading."

if the network keeps being like it is it may never happen

cant withdraw or deposit to it

the way the network is give up with the raspberry pie

how it is it may take over 3 months or more to get 1xmg

i've had 450kh on for just over 12 hours now and have 0.25xmg unconfirmed!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[The Frisian]

when pump the price ? hard fork and wallet update is good but price is stable

We will start pumping the price in approx 6 hours. The network has to all be on board for this to work. Get ready!

Did I miss something? LOL.

I think the whole idea about this coin is to be energy efficient and can be mined by everyone. At least if not with the Pi, with an i7. Can the developers express their views about this matter? thanks

its ment to be able to be mined with the raspberry pi, etc. but theses idiots that dont give a f**k and hashing at 1000 - 8000kh/s

they treating it like bitcoin hash the sh*t out of it!!

the pools need to grow balls and limit ppl hashrate by IP address or something!!

or even the developers hard code it in the wallets/miners, etc

Banning banning banning... Y'all like to ban everything. Remember this is a cryptocurrency, and therefore it has Bitcoin's principles. Decentralization is one of them.

Consider other options such as investing or even integrating Magi into your website as a payment method, not just thinking about profit.

all we are saying pools need to help make it fair for everyone.

keep the coin alive. right at this very moment its killing it.

The mining scheme is done perfectly to avoid those situations. Mining hashing does indeed cost money, and even if it's a botnet I believe they have better things to mine than having 1~2 XMG daily. Just keep calm and wait them to stop mining.

i'm keeping calm. just dont like the unfairness that is occurring for everyone cos of idiots and the pools arent doing anything about it..

Wow after 1 night with some sleep😉
I need to read up a lot of posts.
Just a short read first. Magi has a unique blockreward system. Mining Magi with huge hashrates will drop the rewards. Its a change of mindset. With btc or others currencies it was always great if you have huge power to mine. Magi is different & made for all people to mine.

Magi is different, because one has advantage if he has access to many public computers/free electricity (since every cpu is enough, not only high-eng gpus), so taxpayers will gladly pay for it's massive mining

Don't know if the guide above is up to date but it might be handy!

I was using XpoolX but after the recent upgrade all my coins are gone and my none of my workers are able to connect for 24H. I see other workers online (60-90) but I can't seem to connect. I read somewhere that they said all coins were safe but they never seem to come back to my wallet so I'm not sure.

This makes me want to change pool. Any tips? Preferably where they don't allow whales to mine everything (I run Raspberry Pi's so I can't compete with that). Thanks!

my exact point on the current situation.

theres whales on all the pools and even on the speed limited one and none of the pools are doing anything about it

Whatever pool you choose it will be the same bc of nethash, when magi nethash is above 40mhs stop mining and mine with gpus and convert to magi or maybe someone can make multipool for us, let the bots mine for us don't join them it was like this for years its nothing new.

[Jeremy450]

honest i would like to hear fron the pool owners. so far they have been nothing but quiet about the whole thing.

2.1MH/s whale sitting in m-hash

*sigh*

The spike in magi's value brought a lot of new blood to the platform ... sadly, those individuals aren't able to read, or just refuse to do so. I understand the premise behind Magi, but if there is no way to enforce a speed limit then, by definition, there isn't a speed limit. I don't see why they just don't hardcode it into the platform that any shares from an account producing more than 400 kH/s are automatically forked into the ether. If you get zero, you'll be less likely to break rules.

Right now, these people know they can just pound the network like crazy, get the majority of what small amount falls out of the block, and still makes WAY more than the typical miner. Now, correct me if I am wrong, but the sweet spot refers to total network hashpower, meaning all the pools and solo miners combined. Which means the fact that Suprnova has the right not to have limits only serves to ruin all the other pool's payouts, even if they do abide by speed limits to optimize payouts. That isn't eco-friendly/equal by design, it is eco-friendly/equal in ideology only. It's like the ozone layer and CFCs, if you only ASK people to stop using CFCs and it's more profitable to ignore those rules, they do and will. There has to be some kind of penalty or freeze out, otherwise mining is only equal in spirit, not reality.

Kind of sours me on mining XMG altogether now, because it just isn't equal in application. Which, honestly, is really the only thing that sets Magi apart at this point.

I think we give it a week or so. If the energy used by the Mh/s whales is coming out of their pockets, it will become obvious that their mining is not profitable and they will leave or reduce their rate. 9 Mh/s is equal to 70-150 modern computers and their electricity cost to run is not negligible, probably between 30-100 USD depending on where they live and assuming each computer is using 100W --> 240 kWh/day. There was a post here earlier about some person spending $6.30/day or some amount like this, and that the person would leave since the mining is not profitable. For that person, they are probably using 20-40 kWh/day, which simply a huge unsustainable amount, as if the person is running 5-15 large computers for the sole purpose of mining. The nature of Magi is to irritate this person! I am running Magi on my 70W machine that I use for other purpose; the cost of this is about $0.24/day and it would be so even if I weren't mining. I believe the correction will slowly occur on its own.

If the whales are getting free energy, though, it gets more complicated. That is when there would be problem.

You can't assume that the electricity consumption for a mining whale is the same proportionally as the publicly available miner.  If they are truly a whale they can afford to pay 1 BTC for a GPU miner and never share it with anyone else.  9 MH/s is probably a single 6 AMD rx580 rig drawing about 880W. "GPU/ASIC resistant" never meant that it was impossible.  

I have noticed a lot of ASICS being offered for algos that used to be GPU only.  The Antminer D3 shipped 2 weeks ago for the last batch and people are probably starting to receive them.  Google the Baikal Giant X10.  All 7 of the supported algorithms used to be ASIC resistant.  Ethereum Asic miners (LIGHTMINER Z02, Geass miner, and maybe others)  and  are also out now but they are mostly not being shipped out of China yet, and probably won't be until they stop being profitable for the manufacturer to run themselves.

What I think is probably happening right now with 80MH/s on magi's network is that the new Chinese ASIC miners being "tested" by the manufacturer, or those like the Antminer D3 that recently shipped, are slamming those coins with huge hashrates.  GPU mining rigs, now unprofitable on their former coins, are being forced onto other coins like Magi in search of a coin that can still be mined at a profit.  At a high enough price, even 0.1 XMG blocks will be profitable for them and they won't go away because they don't have anything else to go back to.

Speeding limiting the public mining software would do nothing because not all mining software is public.  A speed limit would have to be coded into the wallet and would require another hard fork, but without other changes this also wouldn't stop anything.  Someone running a 9MH/s mining rig could just have the wallet running 30 different times and split the hash rate between each one.
