no matter what pools you chose you won't get any payouts unless the btc price goes over 6500-7000$
That sounds quite unrealistic to me. Why would my payouts be depending on a fiat value??? |

I agree, the current situation would make anyone loose enthusiasm for it, not to mention the 27% import tax they got on the miners coming into the U.S now, which makes you want to quit even more if you don’t have the miners on hand already.
In my case I’ve finished installing everything and the miners are just sitting here so I have to try to see what happens, after all the work has been done.
I keep hoping to see Japan come out with ASIC's so can avoid the import tax, though even with it - Bitmain S9's are super cheap, especially when having a shit ton of coupons that are just expiring left and right lol if i recall correct, its a percentage of 27% right? Why not buy from some local companies there and have them change the initial purchase price? Saves a lot of taxes...  |

Hey guys.... Lets not plan the funeral yet pls? First i want to be able to experience a peak ATH as well okay?  So you made an account on the very day of the ATH (temporary, previous) then you buggerred about with mining a few months later. What's up with you man? did you not buy at the top liek a good noob? What on earth is your problem... Check my account; i'm around here for years... true; i didnt believe in bitcoin and missed some good opportunitys, but i've made up for that and am aquiring them thru mining, yes. Whats your excuse? |

hahahaha.....
(rifle. I know you havn't had any education, but i'm a certified electrotechnical engineer... I couldn't expect a decent answer from a guy like you other than b.s.) Lets not let the stresses of the BTC market get to us folks. Although "technically" correct, I suspect a lot of us small miners think of an extension cord as the typical 14 guage 25 footer... I think when you are into multiple zeros for your wire gauge, it is a bit more planning than stringing holiday lights... true. i'm not native english, so extention cord might be the wrong term, but i think in a forum like this we all know what we are talking about, right? Surely you'll need some big cable, but when the distance is not too long, it should be doable. I think it would be terrible to have miners, and not being able to profit their rewards and lower difficulty. |

i dont think its the best moment to cashout 66.233 BTC into anything else.
unless naturally someone is willing to tank it to $5, and immediately buy 50 million BTC back for it...

isnt it a option to pull a extention wire with enough capacity from your house connection to the other location temporarily?
I dont think I can pull 400 amps with an extension cord lol Well, if its 400 amps divided over 3 phase it isnt too bad. 220 volts i presume (single phase voltage) I dont know the actual lenth you have to overcome, but i've done crazyer things like that..... I've pulled an (temporarily) extention cord for 3x450 amps over 600 meters (approx. 1800 feet) for a huge chiller of a company i worked for. That was a nice challenge..  (rifle.

well I am currently stuck - the electric company has suspended my service to my mining building for the time being.... and that is why my miners were no longer mining. My building is located on my residential property (about 3 acres) but has it's own and separate meter/panel box - due to my high consumption, I have had multiple visits from the electric company (even a couple from law enforcement who detected the heat on thermal and thought I might have a grow house) and now they want me to convert my residential service to commercial and state they need to install a new/different meter and I will have to pay for the changes... now mind you, I have been trying to get a transformer installed so I can expand and they have been delaying/blocking that and NOW they pull this move... So, I am pushing for them to install the transformer that way I can build a larger building to house more of my miners and to possibly do hosting...
but for time being, I am temporarily shut down. I may try to relocate a few of my miners to a location nearby in the meantime just too keep accruing BTC, but I doubt I can do them all and keep it profitable.

Why, exactly, did we lose 80% of the hashing rate here all of a sudden?
Anything of notice apart from luck?
Are the old-timers still here or mostly left already?
A certain mining source didn't like the variance  What KANO meant to say but couldn't was: Many mining sources didn't like the variance |

Where are you pointing your miners at at this moment? Any best practice advices?

Probably the Brexit is the only way to solve this ;-) lets hope more country's will follow this good example and exit as well.... |

Now to throw one more point into this You CAN average months if you are looking at the PAPPS% number since that is average reward for the month. So using the months listed on the web site: 2018 November… 53.92% 2018 October 84.93% 2018 September 134.59% 2018 August 95.93% 2018 July 105.36% 2018 June 87.48% 2018 May 99.26% 2018 April 101.19% 2018 March 144.89% 2018 February 44.93% 2018 January 152.40% 2017 December 127.65% So the average month PAPPS% is 102.7% PPS rewarded (including November so far) Right is right and wrong is wrong: Calculated it, and true as it can be, i admit. I just looked at luck. (this, by the way, is what i appreciate about you personally. Thx.) i'm working on some extra hash. I might add it again. I'll consider.  |

As I edited my post above: .
.
.
Avarage of past year: 85,6175%
Math fail. Average for the past year including incomplete November but including December (as you did) is 97% luck Found 200 Expected 206.53 i just took the average of each month. Added, and devided, so average is correct i presume. well anyway: when i look at the block performance, i (me, personally) see that theaverage of the past 2 year is 96,68% Oh, its great that the performance was outrageausly good in 2015, but what good does it do for the current miners? When you calculate the performance from day1 it might be 101,49% indeed, but the past 2 years it didn't, and it seems to be declining only... Last year:92,65% so, thats everyone that started in november 2017, right? (60 weeks average...) i dont want to throw mud or anything, dont get me wrong. (i didnt start the numbers actually, in respect to Kanopool...) |

luck on this pool is below average for a very very very long time...
...
Nope - just this month ... which is NOT a very very very very long time. Stats for this year up to the end of October is 101% luck 180 blocks found, 177.99 expected. So no idea why you'd make that completely incorrect statement. Last 1000 Blocks 115.9wks luck: 96.68% source: own website.... Well then I'll educate you on the meaning of that. There have been low luck points in the last 115 weeks and high luck points also. Alas more low than high. Same as for this yeah up to October. But this year those total low and high have averaged out to 101% at the end of October, but taken a dive for November. So, no you are incorrect. I wont point out the fact that over all time luck is still 101.5% ... oh wait I just did ok. Well, for now i will take my loss then and gamble at a different pool for now for 2% less... Since i switched a few weeks ago, it seems that my personal average might be higher after all then... And again: nothing personal. Same as current, you just try to explain me, instead of throw mud or anything. I appreciate and respect that. Great example for many others, chapeau, hounestly. |

KanoPool: 71,432.43THs  It seems like i'm not the only one with a calculator... I mean the hashrate drop is a pity...nothing more... SAD!!! no, why? Why is the (overall!!) hashrate drop a pitty? It only means more BTC for your Th... It is a pitty that it effects this pool, true. If it was for me, this pool would have 2Ph! (omg... Kano would go crazy... ) |

I dont want to rub it in in any way, but the vacuuum cleaners intended for electronics are really special and have partial carbon added to the plastic in order to make it conductive and connected to earth. With a regular vacuuum cleaner tubes are made of plastic, and the air rushing through is winding up the static electricity, killing every electronics it touches...
I always use compressed air; a lot safer, works a lot better too.
So yes, i think it might be damaged.
positive side: at current prices the S9 is almost free to get, so easy replacement for a few bucks.

ps.
It has nothing to do with Kano...
Great guy, responsive, and has a angel's patience...
I am sure there is no better pool operator, definately.

KanoPool: 71,432.43THs It seems like i'm not the only one with a calculator... You're just not capable of understanding that pool size has no effect on the miner's total reward. We still get the same amount...there will be fewer blocks but we will get more BTC with each block so it's still the same total payout. You really should take up a hobby that involves less math before you hurt yourself And i think that you are too stupid to operate a calculator....  I know how the pool works, i've been mining nhere for over 6 months... I'm afraid that you are not capable of understanding that luck on this pool is below average for a very very very long time... Hey, sure, it may differ 1-1.1% in fees, but when another pool comes close(r) to 100% luck (wich is the norm as you state yourself) they still pay more BTC for your hash... Second; when the overall pool hash is so low, it takes much longer to find a block, and kills your 5N rewards when you drop to another pool, as your 5N is already down to zero when the pool eventually finds a block. So, stop throwing mud, try to better understand what you read, and be a little more respectful okay?  |
