Title: What is an interval, round and stuff?
Post by: 420 on August 04, 2012, 01:59:54 PM
Just looking for simple answers

Studying up on pools and methods, DGM

I don't even know what an interval or round is?

Apparently used in determining proportional payouts? maybe PPS too

a round on a pool is the time between finding blocks
PPS pools dont use rounds as they pay the same for every share across a difficulty period

interval? context?
stuff - no idea sorry

concise questions get better answers that "stuff" ones :)
