That means that EclipseMC only found 2 blocks equating to ~$900 USD. Is that all - $900 USD - that is divided among all the clients of EclipseMC dependent on the hash rate they contributed to the pool? <again, apologies for using said example, for the general consensus is it's a fair pool> Title: Re: Do I have "putting this in perspective" correct?

There are certainly small pools that only get 1-2 blocks per day, or even wait multiple days for a block. At the target block difficulty there are only 144 blocks per day so a 1% pool expects to get 1-2 of them. Nothing out of the ordinary there.

I just found my error and was going to post such, hoping to lock this thread (will do now) prior to anybody commenting. I'm such an idiot that needs clinical help. ::) ~Bruno Kucinskas |
