Jeez. If ur paying anything over like 10-12cent kW/h. U mine as well shutdown ur miners. No profit to be made there. Or move them to where it free. But that's just me.
I'm still profitable at current BTC/USD exchange rate. Not shutting them down. would you still be profitable if tomorrow the BTC/USD rate dropped to $100 ? like it was only a year ago. $100? no of course not. Would anyone? I guess those getting "free electricity" would be OK though... Dang thtd suck. *stock market people* that's what its like. I got 10th/s online for a day to boost some speed. Let's hope luck is on our side. Good luck everyone, let's pray the price if btc rockets again soon time. Though it might just get a lot worse before it decided to get any better. |

Woooohooooooo so far were back in the game. Woooooottttttt hopefully there not invalid though.
GO SLUSH GO. let's show these other pools what its like to be a family............ Not really but I'm proud

^ Ya, it always works out with Slush's Pool. This is a zero-sum game of chance but in the end I've always came out better over time here.
Yea. It's weird. Other pool might be faster or solve faster or w.e. but idk. Slushs pool has a lot more if something that other pools will never have, that to me. Is that slushs pool has the largest comeback game. I plan to stay here. I don't even want to point one if my miners at another pool to try it or mine. To me Slushs pool feels like family and you don't give up on family, so I won't give up on slushs pool. I'll hash away for as long as possible until the diff is so high it makes it next to impossible to makke back your profit. |

EDIT: Some other pool finished and reported that block solved before we did. We were working on the same block as other pools, but on separate chains. The chain we were on ended up being the on shorter chain thus we lose the block.
Note: Yes, we are all in the same boat and it seems to be taking on water right now.
This happened to us with another long block fairly recently. So presumably the big pools with all the firepower could always beat us to the punch with these longer blocks? The last difficulty rise, although not that big, seems to have shoved us over the edge here. Yea that's about it. But if I know slushs pool god enough. We will blow up again soon.... In time. The more hashing power we get... The better..... Sometimes WOHOOOOO. 2 BLOCKS 1 BLOCK TOOK 18MINS THe OTHER 10HRS. Woooooooo Were making a come back lol |

Slush pool is slowly fading into obscurity, pretty soon it may be the new eclipse. under 3% now the days of home mining are almost gone. corporate farms and HW manufacturers are dominating. Cloud mining anyone ? http://blockorigin.pfoe.be/chart.phpThis is getting a little frightening at this point. Slush was doing so well up until difficulty change. Almost might be time to switch pools at this point. Slushs block solving is decreasing and profit is becoming harder to gain. A little scary if you havnt made ur profit back yet. However I'm hoping to god the difficulty is going to drop. The harder it gets to mine, hopefuky miners get turned off causing a difficulty drop or a btc price rise. Either way, as scary as thus is, it happens and hopefully we can just have our hopes up for it to get better son. Looks like IMA throw $10-30 down for some mining contracts or something. Hopefully this gets a lot better soon. This isn't the slushs pool that I know. May switch to ghash for ahwile. Don't want to at all. But if it makes me my profit faster and solves more blocks than there's no choice. God I love slushs pool so much |

Man I dont know where you guys are getting some of this math. Maybe you paid way too much for your gear.
I started Jan 27 with $6000. I bought used gear , mined, bought more gear, sold everything, rebought new gear, cashed out Bitcoins etc and now I am running all Bitmain gear 16 S3's and 13 S1's underclocked to 250.
Total electric will be under $500 and they will bring in about $2900 in the net 30 days. i will run them for 60 days then begin pre ordering the L1's. I am set until next Spring. GO BITMAIN.
The first block each day more than pays for all electricity for the whole day.
I agree. 100% some people saying there paying like paying like .30-1.00kw/h. How are you even making back ur profit. I paid about $900 for 2.4th/s and pay .08kw/h all day everyday. Idk where ur prf Just saying. How are you making profit at anything above .10-.12 kW/h. Ohbwell. We been having many long long blocks lately l. Making our profit harder to make back |

Cripes,I'm dumbfounded,, I left CEX to come here about 3 months ago and was making over 6 dollars a block.
At that price I needed 2+ blocks to cover my power costs. now I need just over 4 blocks to cover my nut.
When the hashing skyrocketed a few days ago I would have need 10 blocks to break even.
With the historical average being 4-5 or 5-6 depending on whos doing the math this place has suddenly gone by the wayside.
With just over $3.00 a block there is no way I can make money here anymore.
So unless BTC jumps dramatically I'm afraid our days are done here.
My suggestion to everyboby here is to take a good look at your costs and be honest with yourself.
Are you REALLY making a profit or just hoping things will get better.
If the huge hash jump last weekend is any indication as to what is about to happen when these monster machines come on line next month
I think you better start getting your E-bay ads ready, I know I am.

As long as btc is as low as it is nobody is making money unless you have free gear and free power. I mine for speculation and the fun of it. I look at it if 5 years from now btc is trading at 1500 a coin it was a hobby that made me some good money, if it tanks I had fun doing it. My biggest problem is controlling the urge to keep buying hardware. I started with 2 red furys and have 9.2 th now. Bob pm me and I will give you a pool I ran across that you might be interested in trying. Lol that's the hardest thing is to not keep buying more hardware. Started with a u2 for about 1 month or so. The. 2 s1s. Now 2.4th/s and helping double the profit with contracts. And yet I still want to buy more. 1 pH s be the limit lol. These USB asics I'd like to have 10-20gh/s worth of USB asics. But for the price of 10-20gh/s. In USB asics. U can buy 100-400gh/s Solo not really worth it. ... I damn wish it was. Idblike to run a USB mining farm. If not iv got a u2 for sale which iv over clocked to 2.2-2.4 GH s and had it cool and stable. BTC or Paypal accepted |

Its all about looking at it like the stock market. High highs and low lows. I may have started mining to early. But iv got 2.4th/s for pretty much $400 CAD. With the cost if my kW/h at .08 makes easy to make money back. While running half my miners also onbfree electricity max over clock. I think there's still tons of profit to be made just requires more hashing speed or more time consumption. In a matter of 1 day pretty much i made .08 btc I think. 1 day and 5-10 hrs iv now made .105 btc. at this point in mining this will prove who the real miners are. GOOD LUCK EVERYONE Idk how precise this is. But here's some bad/good news Next difficulty retarget occurs at block 322559.0 (eta 10.2 days): 33833345698.3 / +13.4% [est.] |

When I look back, I think it would of been wiser move to buy the bitcoin directly rather than mining. I guess lesson learn
Yea :p. I recently bought 2 s1s. Been brining in a sweet profit bought 2 for $340 CAD. BOUGHT another 9 s1s with 7 PSUs. 3 miners for 340 cad the rest of the miner are basically on loan. But will give me about 2.4Th/s. I pay about .08ckw/h but run em on free electrcitiy as well. But iv thought about just buying them make money faster |

You have the higher hash rate, which means that if your contributed rate is the same you get a smaller piece of the pie. But the higher pool hash helps mitigate the effect of increased difficulty.
that is not true Take a look at the stats page: 2014-09-08 - 3 blocks 2014-09-09 - 3 blocks 2014-09-10 - 5 blocks 2014-09-11 - 5 blocks on average 4 blocks per day and then the hashrate increase with 33% = expected 6 blocks per day 2014-09-12 - 8 blocks 2014-09-13 (half the day) - 4 blocks = 6 blocks average ... and the day is not over yet Before 2014-09-12 I got 0.002 per round and now it's down to 0.00135 or 0.008 per day before and 0.0081 per day now ... as you can it's more NOW than BEFORE Don't trust me - do the math yourself @Datelli cold figures from the day i have started mining - the difficulty was ~700k and now it is 27428630902, the BTC price was ~0.05$ and now it's ~500$, but the mining is still not dead and makes sense? There was a guy who gathered all the block data for this year and concluded that on avg. we will get about six blocks. This is my personal experience but back in May when I was running ~1.4 THS, I was getting about 0.1 per day and now with 2.7 THS I barely get 0.07 or less. You need to realized that the slush is not only pool with increase hashrate. So true. the difficulty changing also causes for a decrease in payout. But still giving a rather amazing payout. Years go on more miners get added to pools thus causing an increase in difficulty. But hey. A payout is a payout. And its alllllll about time and patients. The speed thing fluctuation sucks but met. I rather stay on a pool that inobi can trust and rely on. Than one I dontnreally use and may not be so reliable |

I to agree. You get a smaller payout per block, but a larger payout per day because of solving blocks at a higher pace. The only down fall is difficulty increase, a little scare went from 16-18(when i actually started) to 29(now). It may make the btc price go up, but also making the moneys harder. Hopefully causing people to sell their miners, (or turn more online) Either way, Im ready, its all a win win in the end, just takes time getting there. However it would be nice if the Hashrate calculator was correct. I got 600GH/s running and confirmed, slushs says its only 450GH/s, im not really complaining for the fact of I know the speed and payout is all there its just calculations or something is off. OH well, Give it time and we will be back up and running perfectly like always. Just give it time. And in the mean time...mine mine mineaway, mining mining mining, im mining cause its fun... and a pretty awesome hobby I look at the statistics, and all I see is like 10 blocks for Sept 12-13 this is insane, payouts might be lower, but shit were up like 5 more blocks than before.  increasing our payout. Slush I dont know wether to question you, or simply love you, but I think ill love you because your pool has never let me down before, and id like to say its never let anyone else down either. Thank you |

This sucks. What pool to while slushs gives us issues.  dang dang. I just want my first payout, I'm almost there. Everyone should join back in slushs, maybe get the score back up. has anyone heard from the support team about this issue? |

Lol into the pool is massively glitching lately but lol how is this even possible.
Doesn't bother me though nothings going to stop me from hashing on slushs pool. I just might split my miners between pool.
But it seems this is a elongated issue that seems to take time being fixed but time is but an essense, precious.
Best luck to all in fixing this issue

Does anybody have any idea where the huge jump in hashing came from, that's an incredible increase for overnight.
huge jump?  That's a total drop not a huge jump. From like 57 or so pH/s down to like 9th/s or something like that. On the bright side. Thus sudden drop and such. Could also mean an increase of $/btc. Or increase in anything else Shit I remember back when CPU/GPU mining sha-256 was profitable...... That's was way toblong ago. |

Dang. Slushs pool is falling fast. 9702557.175 Ghash/s. Seems Like a pool hop is needed..... But I don't want to I love slushs pool to much to switch.
Hopefully this issue gets resolved soon time.
Ibwish the slush support team the best of luck thank you

Wow. What's going on here. 4959659.874 Ghash/s
It was at 67 a few hours ago. Wouldn't surprise me if someone was ddosing or attempting to ddos slush.
Go ddos all the other pools so slush gets it all.
Although ddosing bitxoin pools gives a shit of lowering difficulty or increasing $ per BTC.
However your a dumbass if your announce your going to ddos. That's really stupid..in my opinion

Yea into it all does. Its just a pain in the ass. Pay for these services to get nothing out of it. Mine somewhere else and ALWAYS make it back. Slushs pool you Always make back yourbprofit but sometimes I find you can have like 10hrs of mining. And than stop mining and receive no payout at all.
I blame the block rate. This week iv noticed the largest slowden in getting a block and btc payout has been crap.
Oh well can't really say much or do much. Just sucks that iv never had this issue before up until this week. Sucks quite a lot.

Okay what the hell is this
2014-09-09 19:00:33 7010469 000000000 25.04703768 96
Ran 2 th/s for 5 hrs. Receive no pyout at all. Wtf is this this is the second block in a row where this is happening.
Into this happens. But this is sucky.

Wow. I'm running 2 s1s on slush and ibpull in about .001 btc per block with about .01 every 5hrs or each day.... Each day approx .02 btc per day.
If i did the math right. It seems if u buy 1 th/s worth of s1s instead of one th/s miner, you will make your money back faster..just less of it.
Blocks are a little slow here on slushs lately but hey, I'm not complaining, im still make my money back. And hey there's only so much you can do at 27m difficulty. I'd say slush us doing great. Got ripped off on a few blocks but I'm not worried, slushs pool always makes up for what you lost, in the end.
