Title: How to read Whattomine
Post by: dbc23 on July 05, 2017, 01:34:12 PM
Something I've never been able to really understand why there's two different names, and what they represent, the "Est. Rewards" and "Est. Rewards 24h", the numbers vary somewhat signifigantly at times and I can't seem to intuit what each is really trying to represent.  The 24h number is always higher than the non-24 estimate.

The best I can figure is one is a spot check of nethash and diff, and the other is a 24h average of nethash and diff.  Is that accurate, or is it something else?

There aren't 2 different names. They are titles on top of each other which correspond to the figures below

Est. Rewards : estimated reward calculated at the current difficulty.
Est. Rewards 24h : estimated reward calculated at the 24 hour average difficulty.

These numbers can vary quite a bit when the hash rate fluctuates +-20% for example

Is it just me, or does that website not work? Even after inputting numbers, only power cost calculations are shown.
