As people have indicated in other threads:

- You need to run your S3 the 24 hours of the day. If you run it 16 hours --> 0.00026
- You need to run your S3 at least 2 full days to have stable payments. Pools pay depending on how did you participated in the previous xx hours (xx depends on the pool).

Example: a pool pays your participation in the last 20 hours. So if you have been mining with them only 5 hours you will recieve only a 25% of what you expect. Yo have to be mining FULL 20 hours and then you will start to see your correct payments.

I think you still don't understand what represents the luck of a pool, so I will try to make it very simple with an example:


*\__/ The example \__/*

Imagine you are in a casino, playing with a 20-sided dice. You will roll the dice each 10 minutes:

Antpool (a big pool) says --> "If you obtain a 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5, I will pay you $10"
Ghash (a small pool) says ---> "If you obtain a 6, I will pay you $50"
Note: $10 and $50 are just examples

Which is better??? Both are the same! They pay you the same amount corresponding to the probability you have to win with them.

With Antpool, you have small but frequent payments. With Ghash you you have unfrequent, but big payments.

But if you play with any of them during a week you will see the same payment

That is the important thing: You have to stay with your pool at least a FULL WEEK, mining 24 hours/day to see how much is really paying you. Stand a week with Antpool, and you will see on average your desired 0.0004btc/day

More clear now?

Why should was one week? For lucky ?

If what ?

The suggestion of waiting for a week is to allow everything to normalize.  You'll get a better idea of how a pool performs with your gear over a week's time than you will if you just throw hash at it for 24 hours.  For example, using the PPLNS method, you have to wait for that "N" timeframe before you're getting your full value payouts.

Maybe that 2 minute turn off and after turn on ?

If dont maybe ?

While I don't truly understand what you're asking, my guess is that you're wondering if turning your miner off and on will have any effect.  The answer is that the only effect it will have is that you aren't hashing for 2 minutes.  Each and every single hash produced by your miner has an equal chance at being the one that solves a block.  There is no such thing as historical influence playing any role in future actions.  Each and every hash is independent.

Point your gear to a pool and let it ride.  Look at the stats.  If something is wrong, like extremely high reject rates, then you have to evaluate if it's your gear, or the pool that has the problem.

You have to look at the fees and the orphan history to determine your expected long term payment

If these are the only criteria, then I'd argue P2Pool is the winner hands down ;)

Edit: @ToQcHista check out P2Pool.org, especially the "read this first" part....

Yout told me that was miner full one week and i that 2 minute stop miner for cold , is problem ?

No.  You can turn your miner off for 2 minutes.  The only effect will be that you have 2 minutes of not mining.  Will there be any effect on your payout?  Sure... but it's pretty minimal since 2 minutes is a pretty small percentage of a day.

Okey. Thanks man.

So , i wait one week turn on miner that after i will get  every day 0.004btc

Even but 100% was that my s3 was raning.

What do i ? That i will get 0.004btc ?

25 / (Network Diff * 2^32 / hash rate per second / 86400) = number of coins you earn in a day

25 / (47610564513 * 2^32 / 440000000000 / 86400) = 0.00464776 BTC

I cant undertand .

((

So i that turn on miner 1 week after dont will get me every day 0.004 ?

It means that you aren't guaranteed to get that amount.  Some days you'll get less.  Some days you might get more.  There are a lot of things that determine what you get in actuality vs what the mining calculators say you should expect.

Yes . i guess but if lucky was good.
One week that passes , i will get about 0.0035-0.004.  ??

Please tell me else.

Why should was turn on moner one week ?

What happens ? That passes 1 week ?

If the luck is good (around 100%) then you should expect to get approximately 0.004648BTC per day from your S3.


Turn on your S3
Point it to AntPool
Let it run
After 1 week look at your payouts.  If the pool has had good luck, you will see that your payments should be close to expectations.

I gues . thanks.

But . this one week what will happens that after get me every day about 0.004 ?

which is best pool ?

which paying many bitcoin in earning ?

Your see , coming soon i have 0.004btc on 24h.
In the front is 6 hourse ))

If these are the only criteria, then I'd argue P2Pool is the winner hands down ;)

...

(assuming the pool is paying you what they say they will)

After a week, if you divide your total earnings by 7, on average you will see you earned 0.0040-0.0045

probably i am already finissh  8)    ;)

this 24 hours earning on image,which from hours begin counting ?

You'd do better asking this question in the AntPool thread.  I don't know if that shows what your expected 24 hour earnings are, or what you've earned in the previous 24 hours.

show me that you earned "0.00402464 BTC 24 Hours Earnings"

and i that counting time from morning 8:00 o'clock, second day 8:00 o'clock prior to is less than the amount 0.00315720  btc

Like I said, ask this question in the AntPool thread.  They can answer what those values represent.

By the way, on p2pool in the past 24 hours, my S3 earned 0.00910886BTC.  Why?  Luck.  P2Pool found more than the expected number of blocks.  There are also plenty of times on p2pool where that S3 earned 0BTC in 24 hours.  It's the way things work.  If you look at my thread here (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=891298.0) you can see that my S3 mining on p2pool from 12/26/2014 - 4/17/2015 has earned 0.50613334BTC.  Expected earnings (i.e. what a mining calculator tells you that you should have made) for that same time is 0.5553BTC.  This means during that time I've earned about 91% of what a mining calculator told me I should expect to earn.

Take a look at this post in particular in my thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=891298.msg10095504#msg10095504.  That one clearly shows how 2 identical miners can perform very differently.
