Title: Orphaned blocks issue Post by: sergw on August 12, 2018, 12:26:05 PM Hi all,
I setup my own lcc pool based on NOMP and connected it to mainnet, for 2 days this pool found ~7 blocks, but all of them became orphaned. Is it possible to investigate this? ps. vm specs: ubuntu 16.04, 1cpu, 2GB ram, 4GB swap, 100mb/s network.

I have no idea if that's the case with your coin and your pool. BTW, what coin are you mining? Edit: I just noticed that you wrote LCC. Is it Litecoin Cash? It has a relatively small block time of 2.5 minutes, but I have no idea about the total hashrate.

There has to be something else at play. If you can easily switch to mining another coin with different characteristics, you may be able to check if it also gives you a lot of orphaned blocks and narrow down on the possible source of error. |
