It just means you don't understand how nicehash mining works.

It does not matter how many blocks your gear finds.

You paid a flat rate based on your hash rate.

So If you are ice mother fucking cold   or

red mother fucking hot  same flat rate.

If I found this 2 block with other pools like antpool , How much will I get?

nothing extra



btw  the miner most likely found a ppc block not a btc block.


if you want extra for actually hitting a btc block mine at this pool


http://mmpool.org/


he will give you the  tx fees.

I think when you are mining on the pool if you find a block or not then They only pay for you with your shares on that pool . it's not like solomining, guy.

this pool gives you all the tx fees. if you hit the block

The last found block for that pool like some 2 months ago? :)

sure what does that have to do with anything at all?

look at the shares of the last four blocks

 1 was great good luck
 1 was good luck
 1 was really bad luck
 1 was  decent luck.


time per block has no meaning.  shares per block has meaning

hitting blocks is about hash power  that pool averages under 1ph of hash power so it does not hit a lot of blocks.

 here is what 863th should do in a month  just about 1 block.

see chart below

Didn't you found two blocks instead?

So im guessing philipma1957
that Pay per share based pools overall have better payouts overall?? or just for BTC (i didnt know that nicehash did merged mining) ?? so like you said time aint a factor or did I miss something?  


Update:
 to be more clear is if a pool that uses pps based rewards can have higher rewards if the amount of shares on that block was huge??  because time is determined by how many shares a block can have vs the amount of hashes your rig can do .. so the block that was discovered today as we speak could of been done faster if the technology was there to do it?? i think i get it


and if for a example by a rare chance everyone mined on one pool , would that earn more payouts?? because it can hash a lot more on big blocks if im understanding correctly ??

if you find a block in a pool it's not like when you find it in solo, the block will be divided to all the users that are minign in that pool, and you won't get the full reward, you can however get all the reward of the block if you were the only one in that pool, hope this help

I found 7 blocks between 24 hours ..  ???

but I'm not solo mining .. I mine with nicehash and I don't know If I can mine solo or change to another pool this will be better ?

Phil told you already  you most likely are not hitting BTC blocks  you may be hitting PPC blocks  they are easy to hit.

your photo /screen shot shows  a high share of :

        20,321,131,965  this is your high
      520,808,749,422  this is a block for  BTC

so you are not hitting BTC blocks  Most likely   there are PPC blocks.

Big Thanks for All
