141  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: New Diff thread Mar 8 to Mar 22. on: March 09, 2015, 01:34:09 AM
Congratulations to SunnyIgor!

This time I'll go with -0.01 to -0.25.

Good luck to all!

EDIT: % that is, obviously!

Silly question within the same difficulty period does it have any difference that
you rent for instance 200 ths for one hour or 400ths for 30mins
No, you calculate the same number of hashes.

edit: and ofcourse congrats to the new blockfinder!

I don't think the answer is that simple, because you have to factor in the number of blocks you're working to solve as well.  You'll have the same number of hashes spread out over more blocks with 200/1, whereas 400/.5 will have that number of hashes over half as many blocks, so twice as many hash calcs per block.  Therefore you should have a better chance with more power over a shorter duration.

Gws24 is right, what matters is the number of hashes you calculate.  The number of blocks on which you work won't do a difference on the chance of finding a valid hash.  The number of hashes makes a difference.

Why don't the amounts I'm receiving as listed by "bitcoin-cli listtransactions"  match the payments listed in https://kano.is/index.php?k=payments ?
I can't see your "bitcoin-cli listtransactions"

However as the Payments page says on it "The payments below don't yet show when they have been sent."
The payments show up on the "Payments" page before they are sent.
I say in here when I have sent them.
They are sent after the block reaches +101

May I suggest you change the column title for "For block" instead of simply "Block", so that people easily differentiate "This payment is for block #999999" vs "This payment is included in block #999999".

Congratulations to 1LjJJS3rbo91FEdbY6o7YoVEEwkEtb7WZh with ~120TH at time of block solve!

Congrats!  First-time block solver on the pool, I wonder if it was rented hashpower.

Ok, my turn now.

Nah, the rounding dust is worthless until BTC hits $100,000 Cheesy

But the block Gods have blessed us again - another one - this time 44% Smiley
(and confirmed)

Yayyy canaan!!   Cheesy

I just noticed that it's one of my miners that found one of those blocks!!  But I can't find where in the site I can see the information about what block I found.  I just see I found one, as well as in my miner's interface.  Is that info published somewhere?

You can work out the block from the cgminer "best share"
Here's how:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=330665.msg5292279#msg5292279
or post your best share and I'll do that Smiley

Haha, that's not as simple as adding subtracting some numbers... Smiley  106,908,021,038 is the best share shown by cgminer.

I found 4 blocks in 6 months last year with 10 S1's, but I haven't found anything in the last 6 months with more than 20 times that hashrate... I was wondering if my miners were working properly or being hacked in some way (BGP hijacking or whatever).  I'm now reassured and glad they can find blocks.

Thanks!

php hex.php 106,908,021,038

Output is:
diff=106908021038
d1_16=...
blk10=...
blk16=a48d49162d676388b2dba0f93756cfb37c6cbbf830e66b2

So looking for a block 00a48d.... gives: nothing since 24-Feb Sad

Not sure why. Either my php failed or ?.

BTCGuild got an orphaned block this morning, maybe that was the block?  Could that explain why nothing is found?

That's what I first thought, but looking at those 3 above none were orphaned.
... checking orphans ...
Yep there it is:

Nooooooooooooo!!   Shocked

I don't know how to feel.   Undecided  But well at least I know I can find valid blocks.

Thanks for checking that out.  I'm going to take your php source and play with it.

3 blocks in 11 minutes, niiiice!   Grin



 Very nice Smiley

  I'd like to see that happen more often to bring up that 3 month average!

I think those are IP's from the nodes that relayed the block to Blockchain.info.  Maybe they are from BTCGuild's cluster, but maybe not.  My IP is none of them.

Hmm, that's concerning.  Why would my wallet generate an address that's no good?  I'll try the S1 with the same address my U3 is using, I know that one works.

I'd like to know what tool you used to generate invalid addresses?  Did you copy-paste them or manually retyped them?

Thanks!

153  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: antminer s6 4500gh/s 1000watts on: February 26, 2015, 01:26:57 PM
this 63 GHs seems to be good gives like 2 dollars per day and in 30 days its payed just check the bill of eletrecity and goes to do a minng profit in 2 months
Though I like podminers, I do wonder in what simulator (online, spreadsheet, back of a napkin) you're seeing those figures play out.

LOL... it's more like 16 cents per day!

thank you
... and the code to allow me to add web pages to show that on the web site is very close to completion (it's in testing) Smiley
Although the information has always been there, I'm completing adding in the summarisation of that information into the appropriate tables so that web requests will be quick and thus possible.
Once testing is completed and I put it live, I'll then work on adding more web pages to show payout/payment/performance details.


Great!  Thanks a lot Kano for your work!!

155  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: Feb 22 to March 9 diff thread with contest included. on: February 25, 2015, 11:39:06 AM
It's still early to tell but I feel like there will be a decreasing difficulty next time.  I think there will be a lot of changes in predictions before the deadline... Smiley


I don't think there will be very much room for changes. There are too few spots available within a reasonable range for it to make sense for someone to give up their spot.

My guess is -3.26% to - 4.00%

True, I was forgetting about that.  People might start selling their spot and a new suchmoon-philipma-diff-contest-spot-marketplace would be born... Result of spot scarcity... Wow, what a vision I just got.   Grin

Kano is there any way to delete unused workers from our account?
Not yet
(though you will never to able to 'delete' them, just rather ignore them)

Looking forward to that.

I also like to clean things up particularly when reorganizing my miners.  Smiley

Year of the Sheep plus moon is in Leo plus swallows leaving before swifts

therefore

+2.01 to +2.25 (exact will be 2.13)

Already taken!  Smiley

159  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: Feb 22 to March 9 diff thread with contest included. empty right now on: February 23, 2015, 12:50:51 AM
I'll go with +2.22 this time.

I guess that means the 2.01-2.25 range...

Thanks!

5.01%

Kexkey is the winner but it was very close with galdur (0.24 vs 0.26 if my math is correct).

Please post or PM your BTC address.

Edit: actually it's 0.24 vs 0.27 but the result still stands. Congratulations Kexkey!

Thanks suchmoon and philipma for the contest!  That was fun until the last minute!

galdur, congrats for the race!

See you on the next thread... Wink
