You covered alot of "where to find info", and that is great. Especially, the part about FB groups, too many trolls, Fudsters&FOMO's, and
"PM me" scammers. However, I would like to add a very important aspect of getting involved with the Community: Be Helpful.
The post is definitely written in a Helpful way, and geared towards positivity, which is a great foundation for a flourishing community.

In this forum, if we look past all of the signature spamming shite posters, we find a core group of Helpful people, who put in years
of their lives building our community. Granted, some of them are rough around the edges, from dealing with spammers and the
"Get Rich Quick" noobies. Nonetheless, they are very knowledgeable, and are trying to protect what they've worked so hard to
build: Our Community.

Personally, I try to help someone in our community everyday, as many have helped me at one time. If someone truly wants to be
a member of our community, the should start out on a good, positive stride, showing they are willing to put in the effort to keep
our community strong, and trustworthy.  After all, if WE want the "old world" to lower their guard, and accept us, we must prove
our community isn't a bunch of low life scamming douchebags, but Helpful, Trustful and Civil with one another.

Great job, on taking the time, to put some effort into participating in a Community you clearly are apart of!!! Hopefully people just
beginning their journey, will take your advice, and use it towards reinforcing our foundations.

BTCig BTClock Weekend is Rockin!!! Let's crack some more!!!



If anyone would like to show some support, for the BTCest BTCitcoin Mining Pool in the World, with a Kano Pool signature banner, click this link:

Thanx for YOUR Support and continued dedication!!!

Stock. Nothing has been changed.

I bought 2 used T9's, from a Colocation here at the forum,  and I've had Zero issues. Temporarily, they're running in my garage.
The day time temps reach between 80°f to 90°f, and the T9's run between 60°c and 78°c at a steady  ~11.5TH/s. Everything
about them has been good for the ~2 months I've been using them.

Thanx Cryptostar!!! Fingers crossed for more!!! 

Anyone who's a long term miner, that doesn't have a "farm" electric bill, shouldn't worry about this price fluctuation.

Nothing to see here......Mine on!!!

At my current hashrate, I need ~16 payouts to cover my electric. So, if I shutdown and buy BTC, I'll miss out on anything above ~16.
Personally, I'll keep pushing in the red. My situation allows me too. Also, last year on this day at $2,408 and dropping, everyone was in a panic, and the prediction was, Get out while you can!!!  

So, adding code to a pool, has nothing to do with poolside??? If said code, interrupts normal operation causing pool downtime,
that has nothing to do with payments??? Hmmmm.....I can see you are totally correct.

There is one major aspect of everyone's assumptions, about Kano's coding time for asicboost, that everyone is leaving out. Kano
is not running "stock" on poolside. From what I understand, and most people that have been around here long enough, Kano has
spent tons of time improving the code his pool runs on. Personally, I've never coded for a Bitcoin Mining Pool,  but I  can imagine
it is not something to take lightly, after all, people's payouts are at stake here. I do know enough about coding to understand, Triple
Checking the work, and Testing it before calling it good.

So, it's easy to say, so and so did it in X-amount of time, if they are running the "stock" coding. I would believe that every "stock" item in the code thats been changed, has to also be changed in the asicboost code, to be compatible with the "non-stock" code. The amount
of time to do this, is dependent on, how much has to be adapted. If a pool operator has changed very little, it would take less time, and
vise/versa.

We experienced these very same trends last month, and we STILL did better than the month before that. Everything always
appears to be at its worst, when the price is on a downtrend. Goodluck to us ALL!!!

Nope. I am talking about the pool. Just Joshin with him about it!!! Ha!!! Playful banter, no harm no foul.

 

Nah, we can let your other pool have that one. 

I know. I recommended the idea to them. Unfortunately, this unofficial became THE official.

I couldn't agree with this more!!! To add salt to the wound, this "unofficial" thread started in the speculation board. Halongmining
has never even bothered to create a new thread, in support of their own product.

Also, concerning AsicBoost:

This thread began with this link to a video of the Dragonmint:


In the video the Dragonmint is clearly achieving the advertised rate of 16TH/s. However, months later, it's announced that the
Dragonmint, can only achieve these specifications using asicboost. How did that miner operate at that specification, if Halongmining
had not yet acquired the Patent for AsicBoost, and what the hell pool was supporting it??? According to the official announcement by
Halongmining and Slushpool, Slushpool was the first to support Asicboost, many, many months after that video was made.

So connect the dots on those shenanigans. Halongmining was using AsicBoost BEFORE they had the patent, and Slushpool
may have been using the code to support it. Or, is it all, just a Corporate Coincidence???

My Monday morning was made better, by, jimmy and tscupajoe!!! Thanx!!!

Personally, around 6k is my break even point, and I'll mine at a loss if I need to. I do plan on investing in newer equipment, as it
becomes available. Just buying the BTC outright can be tricky, with the drastic price fluctuations we've seen over the weekend.
Also, at this price, it's the equivalent of ~16 blocks for me, so I could potentially make more running my equipment.

I've already disconnected my less than Profitable equipment, and I'll probably run it in the winter for heat.

If you want these questions answered, you're going to have to be "just passing by" the threads and see for yourself. Otherwise, you
seem to be singling out 1 person. That's called profiling, or stalking, according to the "law". Also, there is an entire thread, where people are calling Halongmining's business practices a scam. You can go look, but you probably won't. You are setting your sights on 1
individual specifically. Good day.

You are welcome. However, the "law" here is policed by moderators, and is very different than any one country's mandated laws.
There are many comments in "that other pool" about Kano, that could be deemed derogatory, but you are not there standing in
defense for the "law". Why??? There are literally threads slandering Kano, but the Moderators don't delete them. Why??? Have
You reported those threads because they are defamation of Kano's character??? Probably not. Why???
