Anyone else having trouble accessing the slush website in the US?
I am outside the US and getting Internal server error. Sometimes it works after a couple of refresh and then it freezes. Also we just reached 4hrs on the current round. I really hope this has nothing to do with the current performance of the website. I cannot access the dashboard or app from US. I was literally just home for lunch to check on my rig and everything was fine...second I walk back into the office...internal server error came up. Unfortunately, I don't have access to my miner remotely (just set it up over the weekend) so I won't know what my rig is doing as a result of this for another few hours here. they activated Cloudflare so it must have been a DDOS attack on the site. It's still up and running. yea that was weird, I am back up and running! has anyone else also been having issues with there hash rate just dropping out a few times during the day yesterday dec 7th? I keep haveing issues yesterday when normally every thing has been running flawlessly. But then most of the day yesterday my has rate would drop down and unluckly always tend to drop just before a block came in. But I also noticed the Cloudflare pages more and Internal server error. windows when refreshing slushs page. So I can't tell if the problem was on my end or if it was slush being so over loaded or possable DDos attack. AFAIK they have been suffering from DDOS thats why they implemented cloudflare. But slush has some ramp-up and ramp-down so small outages shouldn't affect your earnings very much even if they just happen at the time a block is found.

BUMP - Hello - Is there any support for Bitmain Antminer S9 14TH? Thanks in advance
Yes there is

What worker name are you using? Or have you setup your miner with a bitcoin wallet address as the worker name?

Hey Good afternoon!, I need some help as there is not a central support line. I believe my miner may not be running Getblock, I think it's running getwork. The pool shows that I'm connected and hashing, The Issue I'm having is that my miner is registering that Shares are being accepted but nothing registers under my payout address. Is there some time you have to wait, is there an error on my end, can anyone help me out, thanks!
What hardware are you mining with?

I wish they would bring back the T9's they run so cool compared to the S9's

Chinese and Scandanavian mining farms that are gonna pony up for 5,000 at a time are getting wined and dined (if you preordered on your dime) right now. Exactly as Bitmine.ch, HashFast, KnC, BFL, ASICMINER and several miner makers did with the pre-order funds they got during 2013-early 2014. Many of us here Remember those days. Keep in mind the old saying: Those who forget History are Doomed to repeat it. Of the relatively low number of their miners that ever were produced guess where 99% were sent? Farm customers, virtually ZERO to non-major customers who pre-paid. Again, here specifically KnC and Bitmine.ch come to mind. Skim through the the AMT Skype room chats linked in my sig between myself, a couple other Forum members and Josh Zipkin the owner of AMT back then. Ja it is 250 pages but gives a good insight as to how the minds of those behind pre-order schemes think and see nothing ethically wrong in what they are doing -- especially when things blow up for all involved not the least of whom are the pre-paid-in-full folks. Yes in all fairness to Josh it is very true that the horrendous mess of Bitmine.ch's attempted release of the 28nm A1 series is what truly screwed the pooch - the AMT designs were supposed to be based on what Bitmine.ch gave them - nonetheless as the AMT room chats reveal he should have called a halt to sales and start refunds months before being bankrupted. I was there, I managed to dodge the Bitmine, Hashfast and ASICMINER fiasco's. I wouldn't call KnC a scam however, they delivered hardware, I went and picked my Jupiter up from the office in Stockholm and ended up with a few of them. They may have gone down the toilet after the Titan and then closing up shop but they started out producing working miners at least. This is somewhat different. With the eyes of experience we long time miners are trying to help people understand that it there are some simple tests to know if its a scam or not, they have all been outlined in this thread, but try as we might there will be people who get burned on this, and the market is much larger than it was in 2013, there are going to be millions lost on this if it proves to be a scam.

With BitMinter, if my rig discovers a new block, do I receive half of it like Slushpool, or just a proportion of my work for the discovery? TIA!
That doesn't happen on slushpool either. Hmmm, I was thinking that one did that - it's been a couple years since I mined a lot. For some reason, I was thinking you got 12.5 BTC if you discovered a block. Thats solo mining, not regular pool mining. So you either mine on your own, against your own bitcoind or there are a couple of solo pools that have setup all the infrastructure for you to mine against, they may charge a small fee but you get nearly all of the 12.5BTC if you find the block. They are promoted in this very forum.

Anyone know when "next distribution" counter normally gets reset? It's been on all zeros since the last on a few days ago.
Sorry for that. We are in the process of updating the whole website. FYI, distributions are done the 1st Saturday/Sunday of each month. I will let the team know about the counter though. Thanks a lot for the info Hi @eeeooommm could you let them know again please? I know its not a vital part of the process but it gives me a nice warm false sense of anticipation checking the countdown every now and then

hey -ck are Halongmining using cgminer? Have you had anything to do with the development of the client they are allegedly using on their alleged hardware? If so are they playing opensource ball with the code or are they doing a bitmain and just pretending its theirs? Or... do you know nothing about it? Or... you can't say

Block by Fuzzy! Love it...Thanksgiving Block! He will be pleased

Another way to get credibility is if they are using cgminer or software based on its code is check with @-ck or @kano and see if either of them have had any dealings with the manufacturer.
Of course it could be some other code or a home grown mining application.

Hey kano, why not have a transaction fee wallet address, so we can donate to it if we want to, and then when we find a block and its validated, if there is funds in that wallet it can go out with a transaction fee (enough to validate it in say 24 hours) and if there are no funds in it then we just wait till we find the next block.

Hmm.. Looks like Slush has disavowed being involved. https://twitter.com/slushcz/status/933362956393476096And some questions have arisen about the validity of the performance of the machine, if you watch the frames starting at 0:31s and ending 0:33s in the video you can see that the hash rate is 4TH but then on frame at 0:32s that line is edited out of the frame, and then it switches to slush "screenshot" at 0:33s. Screenshots from video: I really hope its not a scam, but there have been so many. I guess it comes down to two old adages: "Fortune favours the brave" and "A fool and his gold are easily parted." I don't see the need for such secrecy however, if its there and it works, why not publish all the information relevant, about the company, the developers, the engineers, the process, the fab, the layout, the chips etc etc. Also interesting reddit thread here: https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/7eqw71/rip_bitmain/

It's great to see another Bitmain competitor How can it be a Bitmain competitor with such huge power consuption? EBIT E9 PLUS looks to be much better. Not by much though, if you ramp up a E9 PLUS to 11.5TH it would be 1667W and if you ramp one up to 14TH it would be just over 2KW

I have a huge delay for support/email answers from them, whom I should contact here? What is the account of current pool operator? Is he checking this thread recently?
Nope, they don't use this thread or forum for support. Name: slush Posts: 3359 Activity: 1372 Position: Legendary Date Registered: November 09, 2010, 09:51:26 PM Last Active: March 20, 2017, 02:12:00 PM

Because people who do this sort of stuff are superstitious. Its up to kano to talk to the big players to convince them to come back, not sure how much of a charm offensive he can put on
