Wow! Cobramining had quite the increase in terahash....

I've noticed some S7's are starting to fall in price. I wonder if the S9's will fall slowly as well as they are being released or if they are just going to be the "go-to" while everyone dumps their S7's.

I'm really trying to build up my hash rate.

Thoughts?

Where did you see the S7s?
That's all I can seem to afford right now.
Would love to save up for S9 but I have no self control. Sad

Close, the more hashrate the pool has the faster the 5Nd ramp.  Wink
Mine On!  Cool

Both the miner and the pool. Your ramp up time would be very quick if you brought 20ph/s, for example.

Add 20Ph/s SmileyCheesySmiley Bring it!!

Right? Let me just go forward in time and bring back a 20 PH USB stick.

They say it's just a movie prop but you might be able to get it to work.

https://news.bitcoin.com/even-though-blockchains-grow-bigger-full-node-counts-increase/?utm_source=OneSignal%20Push&utm_medium=notification&utm_campaign=Push%20Notifications

https://bitcoin.org/en/full-node#costs-and-warnings

So I have decided to run a full node to help out the network.
I have about 4 more hours before it is updated (100Mb/s Down 10 Up unlimited).
I have 32GB Ram 2TB HDD 16 Core 3.2GHZ processor Windows 10.
I made the cache 4650MB and set the number of threads at 16.

So,  my questions to the group are:

Are you running a full node?
If so what settings should I use?
If not why?
Any additional considerations?

Thanks in advance for any help!

Mine on!!
I run 2 wallets (mine and the pool - 2 instances) in a single 32GB VM at home set to 8 vCPU (that's effectively 4 core).
That performs fine.
The server the VM runs in is 512GB RAM with 2 Xeon Gold 6148 = 40 cores/80 threads so plenty to spare - that's the pool development server I run at home.
The server and the VMs usually have no internet access (I just open up www temporarily every so often to do linux updates)

The HDD type will decide the performance, but performance doesn't matter too much unless you're running a pool, so standard (cheap) HDD is OK.

Of course, if instead you were running your wallet in it, then you should use RAID1 on the disks that have the wallet and make sure you back it up often, automatically.
However, I'd never suggest to anyone to run a wallet on a windows computer - just way too risky.

I run about 7 full nodes and 13 pruned nodes, of course most of that is the pool Smiley

Duly noted. I wasn't planning on using the wallet, just let core run to help the network.

I have a couple spare DL585s with 4x12 core processors, 256GB RAM and 8 SAS RAID each just sitting in the basement powered off. Might put Ubuntu on one of them and start a node there. Smiley My only spare computers. Smiley

"I run about 7 full nodes and 13 pruned nodes" What's the difference Full vs Pruned? is it in the settings somewhere?




Come to think of it, I wonder how many little VMs with a full node each I could run on those DL585s?
Would that help the BTC network? Wink

Close, replace "long" with "many shares" and you'll be spot-on!
Mine On!  Cool

You are correct, it has been edited.

Now let's find another block.

For some reason I thought that the shares we mine may belong to multiple blocks and if we mined 9X the number of shares usually required to find 1 block, when the 1st block is found the remaining shares may at some time in the future be part of the upcoming blocks. Is that right or are the remaining shares just dropped in the can?

Has anyone ordered from this site?  Any insight?

A 14Th version for 1745? I'll take 10 and give you 2k ea. Order a few and let us know how it goes. Have money in hand to pay you when you get them in.  Grin

LOL I know right!

I was just hoping I found a gem in the rough.

I even don't know why I try... sadface

Sorry if I missed this, but how can we see how much difficulty was accomplished in a shift?

I am not talking about the individual difficulty that I mined - I can see that on https://kano.is/index.php?k=shifts

I am talking about the difficulty mined for the pool as a whole.    For example, I can see that we currently have 3,791,272,282,182 difficulty completed since the last block was found, but is there somewhere that shows that number per shift?


Well you can calculate it from the Pool->Graph Smiley

But no, it's not listed anywhere per shift.

Sooo... What's the equation? Smiley~
Well you'd have to look at both the Shifts page and the Pool->Graph
When you move your mouse over the Pool->Graph you'll see the hash rate HR to 2 decimal places.
Find the matching shift (see the time) to work out how long ST the shift was in seconds then:
HR * ST / (2 ^32)
The reason being: 1 Diff is 2^32 hashes - so 1 TH/s is 1x10^12/(2^32) Diff per second - then multiply by the number of seconds in the shift.

Cool THANKS!!

I agree on that, but I'd still have to have an extra pc with awesome miner running 24/7. That's why I'd prefer to get the mail directly from the pool.

Or you could do https://ckpoolmonitor.zachmonroe.com/ or https://www.minergain.com/

For a a lot less than 1% fees

Smiley
Thanks Nazzer.  Just to clarify - minergain is a free work of love for the crypto community that still has a ways to go.  I have the code to monitor workers for a few pools (slush and kano primarily) but have not put the email / text alert for workers going down, but I can add that next week (I 'play' with this on Mondays and Tuesdays).  I finally got rewards with converted dollars at the time of the block working this week for anyone interested.

Cool!!
Thanks for the BTC to $ conversion! Does that use the price of BTC on the date of the reward in the calc?
GREAT Work!

Mine on!

Technical Question:

I have 1 54 chip S7 that has room for 9 chains. Will It work if I hook up 2 sets of 3 45 chip hashing boards to it?

Thank you!

Hey kano,

short question for the management.  Grin

Are you running the pool all alone or is there any backup admin I didn't heard of yet? :-)

Maybe it's obvious but I like to know anyway.
I don't mind if you do all alone. I'm just curious about.

Thanks for making this super cool pool!!  Cool

I really like to get on our acclaim list!  Grin

MINE ON!!

Me, with all my alerts and alarms that wake me up whenever anything drastic happens - if I'm asleep Smiley
All the servers are managed and configured by me, in every aspect - there's more than 20 of them that are only for the pool, and others that have multiple uses.
Last year when I travelled around a bit I also made sure (when possible) that I had wifi on the planes so alerts and alarms would work there also.
Yeah you could say I'm rather attached to the pool Smiley

P.S. Yes I wanna get on the acclaim board also! I've never got on either, though my BDR is still under 0.8 after all this time.
Master Kano...thanks for all you do. I offer you this somewhat self serving wish: Live long and prosper! Smiley
If your looking for an apprentice ... Smiley Cheesy I could commit 20 hours per week!
Mine on!!

All this selling is based on FUD out of China. I bought BTC today. LOL The fundamentals haven't changed folks. Limited supply, some lost forever. A median of exchange that ALL OTHER crypto's are priced against. Let the sub 80 IQ's sell. LMAO... it is like buying a New World Currency that has no CENTRAL BANKER....... at a discount.

COME ON BLOCK!!! MINE ON WITH KANO-SAN!!!


It's not just $BTC though, it's all of them.  $BTC broke the five handle a few minutes ago but rallied back up $600.  Now's the time to be buying and mining. 

I just watched the price go up $500 in 5 minutes.

MINE ON!! Cheesy

Just curious... Is anyone concerned about the BTC price? Any thoughts on where it might bottom out and if it’s going to recover? I’ve looked at the charts plenty and seen the dips but it really seems to be slumping lately.
Same thing people ask, every time it goes down before it goes back up again Smiley

Smiley Maybe it'll hit a penny a coin just long enough for me to buy them all up! Wink
Mine on!
 Grin
If it drops down close to $11k I'm going to buy a little bit. Easier than buying an S9  Grin

I was up all night working on a refurb S7. You should have been awake about 2 1/2 hours ago : $11,300.  Cheesy
Early bird and all that. Smiley
Mine on!
