s3 are still viable miner and produces more than it consumes in power Wink

And S3's can find blocks as I did a couple months ago just unfortunately I was not running it on a solo pool.

like only 508, mill since the last block was hit.

this looks to run out on moms day.  well if we hit on moms day we can all get something better then we planned for her.

our groups "bestshare": 3,658,430,639

Congratulation PublicP2poolNode

I hope you enjoy ur day and take a rest of being monitor your best share .

May I ask you How long your order take to discover the block and did it stopped some times due to low price or your order done in estimated period .

My point is when slandered order stopped due to low price in nicehach and resume again I think it will be difficult to miners to catch the last best share .

It makes no difference

Congrats again!  I had just checked the pool for our club's best share and saw it was lower and thought maybe we had hit... Checked the block chain and didn't see that magic 25 so came here to find out who the lucky winner was.

I was thinking (hoping) the samething...  Undecided
326  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: Why is Discus Fish so popular? on: May 08, 2015, 10:01:44 AM
So what's stopping someone from renting at Nicehash now at 0.0096 and pointing a bunch of hash to Discus Fish to get paid out at 0.01013357?  Granted the difference is pretty small, but it is profit nonetheless right?

Some do it.  Personally nice hash right now -8 percent and then 4 percent go to F2Pool.   So you would have a margin of 4 percent if it works perfect.  

I would guess you would lose a little hash rate that it won't be perfect.   But if less then 4 percent you could turn a profit right now

actually I tried it there were quite a bit of risk associated with it so it's not as straight forward as the calculation.
1. This is the main reason you can barely make a profit: Nicehash charges 3% fee from your order. So there you go: 8-4-3=1% theoretical gain.
2. No pool is 100% efficient. I can almost guarantee you some of you work will be rejected by F2Pool. So you see how thin that margin is. if the rejection is >= 1%, you will lose.
3. at 0.0096 your rate is not guaranteed so if there are higher bids your order may not get executed.

Used to work when nicehash charged 2%  and did not set a floor.  In order for it to work .0092 to 0.0101  was good.

I just complained here about nicehash setting a floor.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=893133.msg11301543#msg11301543

Nicehash modified the floor after my complaint  but the newer floor and the price fee jump from 2 to 3 percent  makes it very hard to work.


Is it possible to set it so that it mines on nicehash when the payout is a certain amount and switches to different pool when it becomes less profitable?

yes, I believe you can do it by setting your password to use "p=0.01015" without quotes. (i.e. this means when price is less than 0.01015BTC/THS/Day stop mining)

That is right , just be aware that I had S3's that sometimes would not switch over and just sit there doing no mining but my S5's switch without problems.

A very good question.  to me this page is what counts.

my stats page is below

http://solo.ckpool.org/users/1CqbvmuJcLFDFzFewKmBVAaghXEtByzY9Y

{"hashrate1m": "102T", "hashrate5m": "101T", "hashrate1hr": "98.7T", "hashrate1d": "86.5T", "hashrate7d": "31.9T", "lastupdate": 1431056872, "workers": 3, "bestshare": 14,443,583,205.917601}

Almost Almost !!

well 14 billion is 10x bigger last number.

Woohoo progress!

Ok, I have a dumb question probably.  How come the bestshare gets higher with amount of time ?  And how was it possible to go from 44,000 best share, yes, only 44k, to 115billion in a matter of seconds to win my last block of btc ?  I have 15th crunching away trying to get that next block.. lol

Also, does anyone know how to set the diff of your rigs on MMR ?  Mine start out at 1000 and DROP to 300+ on CKpool.  

Thanks!

best share gets higher over time due to your miner getting closer to solving a block. (although your miner also has lower shares inbetween best shares) The pool records your highest share, until a new block is found on the pool.

I believe that's it.
Once a block is found on this pool all miner stats of best share are reset to zero. As your miner works on shares the largest share is recorded and as you find a larger share that new best share replaces your last...this can take days, months or seconds to do. So over time your shares most likely will increase but they may not before then next block is found and everyone's best share reset to zero again.  It really all means nothing until or unless you get a share that is larger  than the difficulty which is 47,643,398,018 which you then will be rewarded with the block, anything under this number is just a psychological good or bad feeling.

west/Nicehash average 0.0097 BTC/TH/Day
mrr bighash: 0.01990 BTC/TH/Day

This isn't true. I rented one of their big rigs once and had a pretty long discussion with the owner. He runs his own hardware in China. Nicehash has nothing to do with those rigs on MRR.

Shocked I really don't understand the math behind renting hash for double price on MRR instead on NiceHash ... Also, if this hw is in China, there are probably many stale shares when pointing to solo.ckpool ... where are solo.ckpool stratum servers located, USA East?

ck has said west coast USA

Has anyone here ever found a block while renting from Nice/Westhash? Every success story seems to use MRR?

The one before last block found was using Nicehash and he got it just at the end of his rental :-)

"fredi"


biggest hash powers on mrr are rented from west/Nicehash only to gain profit
west/Nicehash average 0.0097 BTC/TH/Day
mrr bighash: 0.01990 BTC/TH/Day


★After payment, the rig will start automatically
★If you find that the rig does not work,probably because of the difficulty of your pool is too low, please change the difficulty of the pool
★If you find the rig failure, please do not worry, after the rig recovery, I will increase the speed of the rig to compensate your losses, when the lease ends, the "Average Hashrate" will reach more than 95%
★Any unexpected losses,will be compensated 
★Have any questions, please leave a message, the staff will get back to you

do the math..

Thats interesting...

Welcome aboard...full speed ahead!
LOL... sitting in Atlanta waiting for my connection... saw the block found and was like, "no freaking way we already found it".... guess it's just getting warmed up Smiley

I like Atlanta Airport... hate Dallas. It would have been nice to hit a block so soon. Safe travels.

ad a bitcoin I bought earlier today burning a hole in my pocket, so I rented some hashpower, within a few minutes I had a share over 1G, a few minutes later another share over 3G, a few minutes later my best share was lower meaning someone found a block, surely it wasn't me after only mining with my rentals for 20 minutes. I couldn't believe it when I saw my new address as the payout. I picked it because it had 7's in it and hashesez, I liked to think it was my lucky address because it "hashes easy" lol

Man this is addicting and I'm finally out if the red!

Wow congrats!

At Herbpean   I believe in the  concept of universal money with access to all.

I know but it's not everyone in your situation that would do this same with his time ;-)

You do all of this honestly, it's really cool in my book Tongue

The advantage of being 58 years old is 'been there done that' takes over.

I never worry about a phone call or a knock on the door.  Honesty can be very rewarding thing.

LOL I turn 58 in 12 days  Shocked

50's can be okay if your body is hanging in there pretty well.

 I was lucky as I  quit all drugs in 1985 when I met the wife except for cigarettes. I  quit them in 1996.  So my body is okay and my mind is not fried.  I know better so to speak.

Good for you Phil. I can say I never was into the drugs or cigs. So other than hard work that I now pay for with a bad back  I retired last year started pulling my pension but took an inspection job watching the crews to make sure they do the job right and work safely.

We just pulled a nice share "bestshare": 1,018,415,785.48043}

we are doing about 96th at the moment.

Same as Nicehash but based in the USA

I did manual at 0.0098

 I dropped to  0.0097 


about 6 days. 144-150 hours.   I will keep the 50th flat and adjust the pay rate.  the goal is to never pay over 0.0101



in blue is the nicehash order  I will do the west hash in a few minutes


#372152   Standard   Alive   0.0097   2.90596158   157.36   50.00   36   45.6908

Go for it. Phil is noted for renting hash in the past and pointing it at BAN and making a profit.
339  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: Why is Discus Fish so popular? on: May 04, 2015, 11:37:46 PM
Why would some chose to mine at Discus Fish compared with other pool that charge a much lower fee? I mean 4% is a very significant cut into profits. Is PPS really that much better than PPLNS?

If you went to a restaurant and was asked weather you wanted fish, ants, Nasty or slush.... which would you choose?  Tongue

To guarantee a 96 percent payment at all times is what get's people.  Over time the pool should equal 100 percent on luck, but the people's pay do not deal with luck.  They get paid the same amount for the entire difficulty change.

Antpool with good luck is doing a good job of taking a lot of the market though.

Joking aside I agree with you. I liked mining at DFish as the payments were like clockwork... Still use it as a back up pool as I get paid for my time no matter how long or short that is.

So  aurel57  ezeminer and philipma1957 ⅓ each?
Count me in... just provide me with an address to send the coins.
If you want to round it to a 5th person, I'd be willing to gamble once or twice.  If not, no worries.

Okay right now I setup the address to send funds to and to use for mining.

we have 6 with an interest so cut it off once you get past 5 or 6 it gets to have more complications.

1)aurel57----------------------- pd 1 btc
 2)ezeminer ---------------- pd 1 btc
 3)philipma1957 ------------pd  1.0005 btc  the dust is   for the transfer to my west hash account when the time comes.

 4)jonnyBravo0311-------------------------------------made a verbal commitment
 5)TheAnalogKid-------pd 1.0005
 6)mavericklm-------------pd 1.000


Alternate = PublicP2poolNode

Stopping it at six.   1 btc each = 6 btc

 3btc at nicehash 50th
3btc at westhash 50th

 I Will do the rentals manual rate adjustments (saves money I have time)

 3btc with 50th is close to  6 days if we average 0.0099   with manual adjustments we could be as low as 00.91  when we are lucky  and as high as 0.0102

  over 0.0102 just sit and wait it out.


I'm IN!!

Okay we have 5 pd and jonnyBravo0311 said he will pay in about 2 hours.

I will send 6 btc to my west-nice hash address.


I am very happy with the group we got. When I posted earlier today, this is the response I was hoping for but didn't want to talk anybody into it after the butt kicking me and Phil took. I am ready for some payback to the bitcoin gods now...

We lost 3.5 each.  

@ ck  I don't mind  you holding the block for us….  Not sure about the other   5 guys.  

I  vote we can use ck to divey the winnings .  



BTW  still waiting for funds to clear at west/nice hash

  only 1 confirm so far.

I want to thank ck for the offer. I really don't care as I am fine with either way.
