I'm from the uk... Any good exchanges here?
I'd have to let folks from that side of the pond answer your question. Sorry I can't be of more help to you.

Really simple question...
Whats the best way to store your bit coin while mining and then withdrawing them to your bank account for cold hard cash?
Thanks
An exchange. coinbase.com is the most popular one in the US... circle.com is another... localbitcoins.com can also work...

It is connected to a 1Gig E port on the office switch connected to a sonicwall firewall then a 100 Meg fiber connection, so i am kind of lost thats for sure. I am going to have to fine the ip and determine the latency to them. The latency to bitchain.info is only 7ms but i do know that has no baring on this issue,
Get rid of that Windows 7 crap and install a good Linux distribution . Problem solved. There's nothing wrong with running it on windows. I run mine on windows and it runs well. lol... I was wondering how long it would take for someone to come on and defend Windows... man Norgz, I was just screwing around...

That's a nice list but, I don't see anything about blockmaxsize or getwork_latency, do you know which call I should look at? You can set the blockmaxsize on the command line when you startup your bitcoind. I'm not sure if there's a way to query it via an API call. If you want to see a pool's block template latency, you can do it like this: http://some.p2pool.address:port/web/graph_data/getwork_latency/last_hour That gives you a nice big JSON formatted object with a whole bunch of fun things: [[1418161683.704587, null, 7.409173965454102, null], [1418161668.0, 0.385913610458374, 24.0, null], [1418161644.0, 0.37669897079467773, 24.0, null], [1418161620.0, 0.37825655937194824, 24.0, null], [1418161596.0, 0.3696300983428955, 24.0, null], [1418161572.0, 0.3694554567337036, 24.0, null], [1418161548.0, 0.35015082359313965, 24.0, null], [1418161524.0, 0.3665280342102051, 24.0, null], [1418161500.0, 0.3501625061035156, 24.0, null], [1418161476.0, 0.32917094230651855, 24.0, null], [1418161452.0, 0.35518157482147217, 24.0, null], [1418161428.0, 0.43006300926208496, 24.0, null], [1418161404.0, 0.3580664396286011, 24.0, null], [1418161380.0, 1.1424369812011719, 24.0, null], [1418161356.0, 0.3221108913421631, 24.0, null], [1418161332.0, 0.33339619636535645, 24.0, null], [1418161308.0, 0.3962603807449341, 24.0, null], [1418161284.0, 0.32107090950012207, 24.0, null], [1418161260.0, 0.3046015501022339, 24.0, null], [1418161236.0, 0.3066689968109131, 24.0, null], [1418161212.0, 0.2918550968170166, 24.0, null], [1418161188.0, ...
The number you want is the second one in each bracketed set... so in this set: [1418161548.0, 0.35015082359313965, 24.0, null]
you want 0.35015082359313965.

ok that makes more sense. one more question for now accepted rejected 29359103 4847452
why am I getting so many rejected hashes? or is that normal?
and wouldn't 0.03 be a little too few for mining since friday afternoon constantly (at approx 1 th)? I mean idk, Im not trying to say anyone is trying to cheat me, im just asking questions on the theoreticals so I can get a better grasp of understanding lol.
I'll answer the second part of your question. Short answer is no, 0.03 BTC is not low. Under ideal circumstances, 1TH/s expects to earn 0.01257 BTC per day at the current difficulty. Since I don't know which address is yours in the table, I'm assuming it's the one starting with 15SmT... which shows 0.03899263 BTC. Since Friday, p2pool has found 6 blocks. You're right about where you should be.

just curious but how are you expecting to make your payouts this friday with 0.1 btc in stock? and
expected payout this round: 0.00733794 BTC (NastyPoP)
ive been mining for like 4 days straight at 1 th, why is my payout less than 3 dollars?
I think you're misunderstanding the stats. As of right now, the wallet for payouts has a balance of 0.49596293 BTC. You can easily verify this on the blockchain. This exactly matches up with the stats table at the top of the NastyPool PPS Test page. That table also shows what the payout would look like if it were made right now. There is no address on that table with an expected payout of what you wrote. Hope this helps.

Yes the node is running it is behind a goof firewall that I will have to open up ping and trace routes to.
I forgot all about that. I am connecting to it from a data center about 1000 miles away so i know it is accessible from the public. I will open the firewall for a few days to pings and trace routes
I managed to get to your node... no idea why I couldn't earlier. So... your getBlockTemplate latency is atrocious. You're averaging 3.59 seconds. Also, you stated that you're 1000 miles away. Is your mining gear 1000 miles from your node? If yes, find a closer node as you're not going to get a very good ping time. Finally, looking at the payout graphs for the day, it appears only 1 of the miners on your node has found a share today, and looks like one might have been orphaned (or at least it was found almost immediately before one dropped off the chain).

Thanks so much Jonny I had no idea it was actually tied to the shares. I per address. I have since set each miner to there own address so I can watch the performance per miner. And I have been playing with the settings and rebooting alot so the shares are zeroing out on each reboot. Looks like i just need to let it run for a few days and see how it goes. Thanks so much. JC It's not tied to the shares you see reported by your miners on their UI... it's tied to the shares you find that are accepted onto the share chain. Each share must meet at least a certain minimum target difficulty in order to be accepted onto the chain. As of the writing of this post, that difficulty is 12291862.97. You stated you've got a 1TH/s miner. That hash rate, with the current difficulty, translates into an expected time to share of 14.66 hours. Also keep in mind that once you find a share, it has to be accepted on the chain. An orphan share is one that you've added to the chain and broadcast to the network, but was rejected because the majority of the nodes already had a longer chain than the one you're broadcasting. A dead share is one that you found, but your local node rejected it when attempting to add it to the chain because your local copy of the chain was already longer. As I wrote previously, it's all about variance. I think a picture is worth a thousand words... so here's one for you: Here you can clearly see that even though the miner's hash rate has remained consistent, the expected payout line is up and down throughout the past month.

My node ip is as follows:
207.105.189.40:9332
Please lety me know what you think is right and what i can do better
thanks
Well, the first problem is that the node is not accessible. I can't even ping your IP address, or run a trace route to it. You sure your node is running?

Sorry should have been more specific, we had ordered more S4's hence had to upgrade our PSU's and how we are powering the farm which should all be up and running Monday/Tuesday. Although that is kinda irrelevant to this thread as OverHash itself is a service I'm still not following what you're trying to state. S4s come with their own PSUs. Ordering more of them is completely irrelevant to the ones you currently own. Do you currently have miners in your possession? If yes, why are they not pointed at your own pool? You may think the questions irrelevant; however, people who might be interested in mining on your pool would certainly think twice about it since the pool's owner/operator/representative doesn't even mine there with his own equipment. I believe this is what aurel57 is stating. He's trying to help you out by getting you to clarify some of the statements you previously made to help put people's minds at ease - especially given the nature of the promotion you're offering, since a similar promotion in the past was met with such bad press.

Ok I have a question for all you smart people in p2pool land.
In the last 24 - 36 hours my rate per minor has dropped of 90% IE a 1 TH minor would do about .025 btc rate and now i am getting about .0025 to .0030 rate from the same miner. I do have each miner using there own address and not all using the same one address,
What are you other nodes doing and how does my numbers compare to you.
Thanks for all your wisdom from the past and now into the future.
It all depends on how many shares you have on the chain. As mdude77 pointed out, sometimes you have more than expected, other times you have fewer than expected. I've seen my own expected payout drop to a single share before, and have seen it do exactly the opposite. It's variance and it happens to everyone due to the very nature of mining.

You're well over a year late to the party for mining BTC with any PC. There might be some alt coins you can play around with if you're interested - check out the alt coins forums.

I run my own p2pool node, so there is no need for a login. However, if I were to run a more conventional pool, I would certainly want to have a username/password in conjunction with 2fa.

Hey guys, I know you'll probably tell me to look around but I haven't really found much. I need to know as much info about the best miner out there. I have a good amount to invest. I want the best miner that will bring me the best return per day. I also need as much info about it as you can give, as well as how to use and operate it. If I choose your miner and it works out well, you may very well be getting a couple of gifts as well. *not a service staff...* Anyway, For a couple of your minutes you could eventually make some money off me. So yeah, please let me know! Thanks . It's not just about how much money you have to invest, but also in how much hardware you can accommodate. Are you looking to build your own data center? Lease space out in an existing one? Mining at your home, or out in the garage? Believe me when I say we ALL want what you're asking: the best bang for our buck. It's also not just about the hardware, but what and where you are mining. For example, do you mine BTC strictly on your own, taking the chance that you can and will find blocks, or do you choose a pool and join others? Do you mine alt coins and exchange them for BTC? Do you play the trading game in addition to mining? Do you reinvest to get ever more efficient hardware and keep up with the curve? Can the gear be resold? You truly need to think about more than simply "what's the best miner?" because the miner is only one part of the equation.

Just saw this on the terminal: Removed /home/[user]/p2pool/data/bitcoin/shares.43I've never seen this message before. Does anyone know what it means / indicates? Is it something to worry about? - I love playing the conspiracy theory card No, it happens all the time. Old and unnecessary share data files are removed regularly so p2pool doesn't completely fill up your disk with them. You'll especially notice it if you happen to have shut down your node for a few days, and start it back up.

Hi, I mine for 22 hours with 2,78THs, I got 2 shares, both orphan. I am extremely unlucky or something is wrong. Any recommendation what to check?
Need more info dude - settings etc...... I did some changes by setting static difficulty with workername btcaddress/4000+512 (for S3 units) simmilar done with S4 and S1. Will see. Just now there are 6 shares (2 orphan). I do not merge mine, my getwork latency is 0.166 just now. I am behind NAT, port 9333 is redirected thru onto my p2p server. Broadband ADSL 20mbps dn, 4mbps up. Latest forestv p2pool. DOA 1-4%. In the begin I used only 4 S3, 2 S1 and 2 HEX8A later I added 1 S4. So now 4.78THs. edit: noticed bestshare=0 with that settings so I removed it from S3 units That's a known problem with the ants. If you set the pseudo-share difficulty to something other than a power of 2 the best share will show up properly.

Just an update folks...For those of you that had supported CoinCadence's p2pool node by placing an ad or visiting an advertiser, thanks! While the ads were bringing in a trickle of revenue, they are just not worth it for me to keep running (and I can't stand looking at banner ads either ), soo... Since bitcoin can bring so much to the table we thought we would try integrating with bitcoin micro-payment services (ChangeTip and CoinBase to start) and see how things go. If you use the CoinCadence p2pool node, and like what you see consider sending a tip, if there is a feature your dying for send the suggestion with with a bigger tip ... Also, today we released a new Bitcoin Transaction Volume section on CoinCadence.com, it is in response to the great feedback we got on Reddit about some data mining I did on the blockchain. You can see the post here: TIL: Where the Bitcoins at… Mysteries of the BlockchainThe first iteration on the site only contains transaction volume data, more to come... Cheers! Hey windpath, While I don't often use your node to mine (since I run my own node locally and also on a nearby VPS for when I travel), I do indeed use your services to do things like see payout history, compare my miners' actual hash rate to what p2pool thinks they have, etc. I know you've done a lot of work and I've personally found great value in the services you've provided. So, I thought I would be the first one to send you a tip/donation. Thanks for all the work you've done.
