Title: Has anyone worked or done anything with NovaBlock? Post by: OROBTC on June 03, 2020, 11:30:54 PM ...
novablock.com (http://novablock.com) I have no interest in mining with them, but I am interested in hearing about them from any of you members here at BTCtalk who have worked with or communicated with them. They are a "fairly small" mining pool that wins between 1 and 4 blocks per day (the pie chart of hashpower page at blockchain.info will show their recent results). I have two ideas, "half-baked" for the moment, that I would like to explore with them. They have two emails for inquiries (if you poke around their website you can find them), and in due course I just might if they are interested and legitimate (looks like they are). They apparently do take people who want to mine, but that is not what I am interested in. Many thanks for any comments, whether in this thread or by PM.

Post by: MoparMiningLLC on June 03, 2020, 11:40:41 PM I mined with them for a week or so when they first started - pay was comparable to that I was receiving on viaBTC - I was mining both pools at the same time for comparison.

Were they professional and welcoming? I have a couple of ideas I am thinking about that do not involve mining, but do involve money. Title: Re: Has anyone worked or done anything with NovaBlock? Post by: MoparMiningLLC on June 03, 2020, 11:49:00 PM yes - they were also very quick to respond usually - there was a couple days where they were not responsive, but I think that was because of a 3 day ban they received due to "spam" I think they messaged a miner who reported them for spam because of unsolicited PM's.
Title: Re: Has anyone worked or done anything with NovaBlock? Post by: OROBTC on June 03, 2020, 11:54:09 PM Thanks again, have another merit, smile.
OK, I will contact them directly after some more thought. Title: Re: Has anyone worked or done anything with NovaBlock? Post by: MoparMiningLLC on June 04, 2020, 01:27:29 AM sure thing - I am sure others will chime in here as well - there were quite a few of us that tested their pool in their starting weeks. Eventually I went back to PPLNS though, I prefer that to PPS mining.

Personally I had no issues and found them to be helpful and have good communication. I wouldn't really call them small an they definitely seem well connected so they my be a great incubator for your half-baked ideas.
OP of their ANN page is who I was in contact with so you may consider sending them a PM to get a more direct response. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5183959.0 Good luck Title: Re: Has anyone worked or done anything with NovaBlock? Post by: OROBTC on June 04, 2020, 04:48:33 AM Thanks to you both MoparMiningLLC and Steamtyme.
I'll keep mulling over my not-ready-for-primetime ideas and drop them a line. |
