I am absolutely loving this installer. Having done it the manual way for a spell, this is a HUGE time saver and I plan on helping contribute tot he cryptonote-nodejs-pool portion when it gets to that point. Great dev to work with too!

Drop into our Discord if you have any questions or need help configuring your miners.

Notifications will go out when your workers disconnect, and also when they reconnect. Our email notification templates are across all pools and removing some functionality at this point would affect everyone on the pool. Some miners like to see the block notifications as well. We will consider your suggestion as we work to make the pools better for all miners in the future. Thanks!

Glad to hear it! We would love to have you stop by our discord, we can always use experienced miners to share knowledge points. My explanation was more for the benefit of everyone reading, in case they are newer - so good to hear experience talking, based on your past experience adding to the thread.

We can talk further about EU nodes also, sounds like we may be able work something out.

We have not added any EU pool support as of yet, we would need a decent core group of miners to make another pool first (but it is planned).

Concerning luck, regardless of the pool over a longer period of time all pools invariably operate at around 100%...it's simply based on math and it's a rule that can only be bent in short time hacks. Pools can have bad "luck" but then will eventually have periods of good "luck" as well.

The idea behind The Block Foundry is to help miners become better and more knowledgeable miners all around. Whether you choose to use our pools or not, our mission to to help miners understand the difference between the truth and the marketing hypes and misconceptions in the crypto-space. Most of what we provide is information free of charge to help the block chain revolution. Miners are in integral part of many projects and it's imperative that small to medium sized miners don't become disillusioned and squished out by large operations which leads to centralization.

I am unaware of any such pools for MSR or XTL and I have never seen mention of any in the community listings. They are high risk for pool ops and are not very common because larger miners can take advantage of that type of system along with pool hopping.

You might consider giving our pools a try, they function essentially the same, payouts just don't happen on a time schedule but on a block schedule.

It is almost true 😉 ... Our pools are RBPPS, Round Based PPS. There main difference between RBPPS and PPS is that payouts only happen after a block is found, and there is no payout for orphaned blocks.  We have also enabled slush scored mining on some of the pools to prevent pool hopping and hash ramping, so miners can be assured if they stay on the pool they won't be shorted out of all thier work.

***POOL UPDATE ***

We have made some improvements to the BlockBot reporting system in Discord, and also added an https://pools.blockfoundry.org/ page for those wanting to see everything at a glance.


I also wanted to say, welcome to all our new miners and thank you for mining with The Block Foundry!

***POOL UPDATE ***

The Slush Mining system has been tweaked to support all the loyal 24/7 miners the best possible way. Thank you for mining with The Block Foundry!

We also had an upgrade recently so those of you asking about our pool stats, the MSR and LOKI pool databases were reset as if we were a new pool (wallets were unaffected).

We will be in touch, have a good day!

Quick pool update, there was a method of gaming the pool whereby some cloud miners were gaining large profits off of a little mining. Cloud mining as since been disabled - mine on fellow miners, and thanks for sticking with us 24/7 !!
