HOLY BLOCK. Been here since mid June and finally got a block for the pool!!!!!  407 391079 dsppage.SS7H 25.05412314 2015-12-31 06:29:01+00 +1 Confirms ~162,559,976,043 ~173.956% 0.824 1 Elapsed GH/S(5s) GH/S(avg) FoundBlocks LocalWork Utility WU BestShare 34m22s 5,289.61 5,228.26 1 4,197,996 18.51 73,072.54 189919365353 Funny that I just rebooted that miner 34 min ago |

I'm happy with overclocking mine to 750MHz / 6Th/s.
6TH/s?? Do you mean 5TH/s, or do you know something I don't? 4.7 * 750 / 700 = ~5 Some of the earlier gens come at lower clocks, like 600hz, they have more chips so they can be overclocked to a much higher Hashrate. Not that this relevant to Kano CKPool. Yep, I'm talking about the uncrippled S7s with 162 chips. 6TH/s is not a typo. Which batch are you getting the 6th from? 1,3,5? Also what PSU are you using to get that? I have some 1,2,3,5,7 & 8, some with Bitmain PSU and some EVGA 1600 |

Took out three of my miners on the flip
One of mine completely flaked out. Failed over to backup pool ok but then when it tried to fail back to kano even the web interface got all horked. S-7 batch 8. I had to power cycle it. Same here, took out a batch 8 S7, does not reposed and can't ping. I'm not local to it, so could be a day out so before I can power cycle it. Bummer |

pool just went dead and kano.is is down. Everything all right?
Nope, a ddos happening ... Can you take the last 24 or 48 hours of miners IP address and get the DC to whitelist those IP's on the edge network? That might be a quick way to keep "most" connected and mining while DC reacts to the attack. Maybe also for the registered users, display their source IP's on the site and allow users to select and add to "trusted" list that is then used to filter on the edge when an attack occurs. Just some thoughts |

Yep, all worked flipped to my backup pool, website unresponsive. Just after the block, thats happen a couple times now after a block.....
Like a ddos is triggered when we find a block so we don't get a quick double. Conspiracy anyone  ? I'll buy that for a dollar, makes sense since when you find a block you are the first to start on the next block so you have an advantage for 200-300ms over other pools. Would also be easy to setup a DDOS based on block find and every pool and data center needs a few minutes to react to a attack. As the myth busters would say, "plausible" |

Nice work! That low diff block just took all the pool stats to over 100%, no other pool on the network can claim that title! |

yeah just in time. looks like the avg time to hit block is working out. happy hour time ! i made it to full 5dn, then i left for abt a day, obviously it will drop back, but wheni'm back, it's supposed to go back up ?? rewards been dropping instead of going up again ? hmmmm confused  As the pool hash rate goes up, the reward goes down (if you stay at the same hash rate). That plus you can't get your rate up until your missing days drop of 5Nd. best case is you can keep it from falling further. You can rent some hash also, if you do 100th for 8 hours, that will help get your shares up and maybe avg to your normal Th. I did that when I had 1/4 of my miners down for 2 days. |

 Top 3 were the first release of firmware on the website for the 162 Chip Systems. The 550MHz people were informed that they were getting a slower default frequency, it was not what they ordered. Bottom 6 were the second release for the 162 Chip Systems and the first to the 135 Chip Systems. Unfortunately nothing has been said about any changes in the firmware relative to the original release.... Rich Any guidance on FW? I have 12 miners from batch, 1,3,5,7,8 and all on the 10/23 versions, doing OK. Any opinion on updating to 12/11 versions of FW? |

So just curious why shift 5pgyh paru shows a PPS of 110.05%, paid 6 blocks while shift 5ptq5 darkchii also paid 6 blocks shows PPS 104.00%? Is it because of the recent diff change?
Well the exact cause, which is what you are suggesting, is that the rewards to "5pgyh paru" were more from before the diff change than "5ptq5 darkchii"s Firstly an aside comment "5ptq3 charlotte" is displayed wrong and I've fixed that in git (but I wont be doing a ckdb restart until I finish the current change I'm working on) Fix: https://bitbucket.org/ckolivas/ckpool/commits/e6469e64c4f56c8c22e91c6e9b5915b1a0b8dd6cNow, there's two reasons why 2 of the same N Rewards can have 2 different PPS% values. The first is that each reward is dependent upon the total block reward. If every block was (only) 25BTC then 5 rewards would typically be 99.1% (100% - the pool fee of 0.9%) i.e. each single reward would be 19.82% However, since the reward includes txn fees, the higher the block reward txn fees, the higher that value will be. The table at the top of the blocks page shows that % also: "MeanTx%" The other, as you suggested, is the % drop can be due to a diff change and also relates back to what bitwitt was carrying on about. My explanation of that is here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=789369.msg13099488#msg13099488This one shows up clearly when there's a high diff change (e.g. the last 18.1%) Since the reward per share has dropped 18.1%, the new rewards from blocks after the diff change being distributed to shares before the diff change will be noticeably less than 20% each time. However, since the 5Nd has increased, the older shares before the diff change have a higher chance of being rewarded extra times, with lower than 20% amounts. Also when a diff change happens, the shift will end at the block before the diff change. The last diff change was block 389088 ~93G (389087 was the ~79G diff) That diff ~79G ended at the end of shift "5pywg kosaki" "Dec-18 19:53:24" UTC Very through explanation as usual, more then i needed to know but thank you for your time and response. Now on to more important things like nailing blocks! |

Thanks guys. I have a little over 6 TH PH of miners I plan on shifting over to support Kano and the cause.
Thats awesome, thanks, |

Where are you pointing all that hash?
Usually between westhash and f2pool - whichever one is higher payout at the moment. I've written scripts to manage the miners and change pools according to highest payout. Sometimes I'll swing them at a PPLNS pool if I think it's due to have a good day, but mostly leave it auto to PPS pools. F2 is PPS and guess your talking about Ant's PPS pool? So ant is 2.5% and F2 is 4% PPS, right? So best you will do is 97.5%? I've tried both and also several PPLNS, mostly on Kano now, since June I have been split with Bitminter and Kano, if you look at the 26 week numbers, I'm avg. 102.5%. Kano is now over 6ph and I see a lot of new miners there, sone at over 500th and 1 new guy at 1.1PH. I think Kano has the best code on the network, fast efficient and 2 orphans EVER. Maybe give it a try? Need to be there for 30 days to really see the effects F2 is 4% PPS, but you do get a small kickback with NMC and Huntercoin. The other PPS I referred to, Westhash, is western variant of Nicehash. Payout can vary widely depending on rentals and altcoins. I thought about trying Kano, as I had read many good things about it recently. I may send some hash that way for testing. Hope to see ya there, just remember the 5N so ramp up is about 4 days and ramp down 4 days, you really need to give it 30 days to compare, but many other including myself have run 1,2,3 month compares with other pools and Kano came out on top. |

And it goes on and on  Bitcoin Difficulty: 93,448,670,796 Estimated Next Difficulty: 108,641,439,562 (+16.26%)Adjust time: After 2013 Blocks, About 14.1 days To be specific about that The block change is the average over 2016 blocks (well actually it's 2015 due to a bug when it was first written but ignoring that ...) A lot of these 'next diff' estimate sites base their estimate only on the blocks since the last change. So yeah if you base the estimate for the next (2015) blocks on a few ... or even a few hundred ... it will almost certainly be way off. Wait until there's about 1008 (half way) and it could be a closer estimate ... as long as there's no large amount of new hardware in the 2nd week ... This change it was 18.1% but early on some of the sites were saying well over 20% some even 30% or more ... 79102380900.225983 -> 93448670796.32380676 Yay pool currently over 6.5PH Sweet, 18% diff jump and 30% pool jump. Keep it up! |

It is somewhat ironic that they finished the design on what seems to be the somewhat less stable model (B8) according to first reviews.
It probably should work better at 650.
I have a S7 with a bad Hashboard. I am sending the bad Hashboard back to Bitmain. Has anyone run the S7 with only 2 Hashboards? If so, What did you plug the opening in the place of the missing hashboard to make the air go through the 2 running Hashboards? I have 2 units running 2 hashboards as the 3rd unit failed in both. I made sure to run the 2 hashboards spaced left and right and put a strip of duct tape over the middle port on the s7. Seemed to do the trick with keeping airflow through the other 2 hashboards. One board does seem to run 2-3 degrees c higher than if all 3 hashboards were in though.. Out of all my orders 19 batch 1 - all hashing good (2 units running 4780 ish others around 4850) 20 batch 5 - 2 hashboards failed and have been sent back to Bitmain for replacement. - failure occurred after 2-3 days of use. (all remaining units hashing around 4850) 10 batch 8 - just arrived. Have only 1 running - 20 minutes now at 4580. Waiting for more PSU's to arrive for other 9 units. Where are you pointing all that hash? |

Yeah first block after increased difficulty  Sounds like this Diff is going to be a lucky one for us! Nothing like tackling a new higher diff with the first block of that diff. I've always thought that the first block of a UTC day by a pool signals a good day for that pool. I know it's all BS but why not.... |
|
|
|
Phew! Now lets get a few bright green ones  t So we get a valid block and almost 1ph leave the pool? Why would one pool hop here with a 5N? Hopping works well at slush, but why here. Don't get it. Stay after a block and keep hash high to get the next block faster. |
|

did we loose one This block 388788 is showing up as an F2Pool block on the Blockchain...  Yeah just doing an analysis of what happened. They mined 2 blocks quickly and thus orphaned ours. More info later once I work out the timings. I discussed this case in a different post months ago, but when your pool gets a block then your pool is the first one to start on the next block and if you get lucky and that next block is ultra low diff then you will likely get it before the rest of the miners start mining it, guess it a 100-200ms advantage. |
