do you think it's time for PPS
Only if you have another 100PH to send to this pool so the luck is averaged out better.  |

So do I have this right that we are something like 12 blocks below expected in something like 10 days? I know 10 days is a small window but this is starting to look to me like we need to take a look at the maths on the likelihood of it.
I think it's 15.92 blocks expected and 12 blocks hit...3.92 blocks behind... And I got my first A7 online!  Actually, you are forgetting last month... the last 10 days we hit 13 blocks... we need around 2,5 block per day... so that's 25-13 is yeah... 12 blocks below expected... Although time is not the best measure, best is to add all the diffs... So yeah, we need around 3,5 bocks per day to get in the greens. I don't see this year coming out of the red without one of those green streaks that seem to have been there in the past. |

Got an R4, so far love it!
Cool, is it really as scilent as advertised? I'm running S7's and they are a pain anywhere near a living place. And just to wonder, what is your ROI on one of those? |

Sadly PPS is still going down, even tough we had a nice Green block before... Lets get some more of those... like 10... that would be nice... not toooo much to ask? right?... |

But you missed the bit that the txn fees were over 1BTC  1.080228 to be exact Yea baby! Gotta love the big fat ones! Well... green fat ones  |

Great! So... now we go on to mine one block an hour right?  |

Isn't it odd how other countries did not come behind BTC? The USA, UK or other countries could have invested as much in companies who ran mining farms. It's a relatively cheap investment. It could still happen.
The other country's don't have the feeling that their government is corrupt, and don't need a way to trade with the west that the government cannot control. And no, it won't happen, 80% of the bitcoins have been mined and building a big mine now is a year+ before ROI, and labour and electricity costs are much higher than in China. |

Yeah the problem with that though is you are looking at the wrong number As long as the pool is finding plenty of blocks every 2 weeks, every diff change, the time per block doesn't really matter. What matters is the Diff% per block. If the block is 50% diff then the effect on the reward is to double part of it. If the block is 200% diff then the effect on the reward is to halve part of it. Time plays no factor in that. So in this case we are (currently) up to 470% - damn bad luck. History shows the overall pool luck to be better than 100%, and monthly pool luck to usually be better than 100%. Yep slow, long blocks happen, as is expected in hindsight. Absolutely nothing you can do about that, it is expected, and of course happens on every pool Thanx for that reply Kano, I get that taking 60h for a block is not a telling factor unless the hashrate would always be the same... We crossed the 600% diff boundry... so i'm guessing this month and week are going to be pritty red... At the current Hashrate we should have around 3 to 4 blocks a day to be around 100% right? |

Geez...this block is a real unowot,  I'm guessing it is a coincidence that no block has been found since the pool dropped out a few days ago? I've just joined and it seems i started in a bad week. Since 11-3-2016 it has only happened twice that a block took this long... one was a 50h the other one took 52 hour... Exciting stuff.  |
