Title: 3 blocks in 14 minutes by same guy???
Post by: elements on June 24, 2013, 11:23:15 PM
Hi

I was just checking at blockchain.info when the last block was found and I saw this:

look at blocks x57 to x59

That looks kinda fishy, doesn't it?

Thanks for an explanation!

It's indeed mined by the same guy as the coinbase message is the same. I guess it must be an ASIC owner. The IP is from China.

https://blockchain.info/address/1KFHE7w8BhaENAswwryaoccDb6qcT6DbYY

with perhaps 200 blocks since 2013-05-05

This link also looks like a pool. (http://61.164.151.77/)

It is also possible that 61.164.151.77 is a very well connected full node and relays other miner's blocks first so don't treat blockchain.info data as an ultimate oracle of Truth.

The web page there says F2Pool.

That doesn't preclude the possibility that they are also a well-connected node that would make them appear as if they mined blocks that were mined by a different miner.

I'm also looking at the large number of freshly mined coins sent to their address.  They have apparently mined 30 or 40 blocks since May.

Since I am not a miner myself: is that uncommonly much or is this well within the norm?

Interesting post. Someone has some hashing power and a good amount of luck to boot.
