Title: How to calculate/verify daily bitcoins mined by particular mining company? Post by: lordquanta on January 16, 2017, 02:50:34 PM Hello,
I hope I'm starting thread in correct section. Is there a way to verify or calculate daily bitcoins calculated by particular bitcoin miner from particular pool. If we want to check available pool from https://blockchain.info/pools (https://blockchain.info/pools) then there is a list of available pools. If we select https://blockchain.info/blocks/Bitcoin.com (https://blockchain.info/blocks/Bitcoin.com) as specimen pool, then clicking on that pool shows following information: https://blockchain.info/blocks/Bitcoin.com (https://blockchain.info/blocks/Bitcoin.com) Now, how to calculate amount of bitcoins mined from this pool hourly/daily basis?

what important thing you have to know is that unless the pools are announcing they mined that block or they mine to a known bitcoin address, there is no way of knowing which pool/farm mined which block. considering that, when you click on the link like this: https://blockchain.info/blocks/BTC.com you see the blocks they (supposedly) have mined, then clicking on each block hash you can see the timestamp of each block, add up the reward+fees and that is how much each of them earned in the time-frame you have in mind. example: https://blockchain.info/block/0000000000000000032adcc90c8f7b24d12a0ef83d12093b0a21a543d2986551 found by BTC.com has 2017-01-16 14:19:46 as timestamp reward: 12.5 + 0.69552371 now go back to timestamp bigger than or equal to 2017-01-15 14:19:46 for last 24 hour this(https://blockchain.info/address/3NA8hsjfdgVkmmVS9moHmkZsVCoLxUkvvv) seems to be the address they mine to, you can use things like this to add up how much each pool is mining too. you can also write a quick code to get the raw block information then add up the reward + fee based on the timestamp in the raw block Title: Re: How to calculate/verify daily bitcoins mined by particular mining company? Post by: odolvlobo on January 16, 2017, 06:15:52 PM Most miners embed their names in the blocks. That's the only information there is to go on; however, miners aren't required to do that and there is no guarantee that they are being truthful.

I checked the each block and noticed that reward for each block is 12.5 thus if someone is mining in private pool and found 10 blocks then for that day total return would be 125 bitcoins + 0.69552371 * 10) = 131.9552371 per day If in owner of private pool allows other miners to mine then how much pool owner earn?

Thank you odolvlobo for further details. Title: Re: How to calculate/verify daily bitcoins mined by particular mining company?
