Title: Bitcoinpool long round question Post by: isbe on November 28, 2012, 08:23:23 AM Hi,
I've been pretty new to bitcoin mining. I've joined bitcoinpool.com and have mined during two blocks that didn't take very long to get payed a little. So now I've been mining for 10 days and it seems that the current block still isn't finished, the round time is over 10 days! So I have a couple of questions: * Is there any way to know when (approximately) the current round will be over? * If the round is over after the payments go down with 50% to 25BTC, does that mean they will pay me out 50% of what I mined thus far? Just some things that I hope someone reading this can clear up for me. THX :) *EDIT* The round has completed shortly after I posted this. The answers still interest me... thanks.

depending on the pools hashrate it can take longer or shorter to reach the average note *average it can take many more or many less shares to find a block - thats where the luck comes in :) it is not possible to know when a pool will next find a block the other question you would have to ask your pool operator about Best wishes Graet Title: Re: Bitcoinpool long round question Post by: organofcorti on December 16, 2012, 01:28:07 PM Something very strange and worrying happening at bitcoinpool.
