If I can put 2 on a 30 amp 220 circuit, I could use 20 of them and all I would need to do is add extra outlets - as I currently run 2 miners per 30 amp 220v circuit now. I just have 2 plugs off each circuit, i would need to up it to 4 off of each circuit.

If I am ok with this amount of fee is there another reason that i shouldn't mine there 
Both slush and Antpool and most of the large pools create unnecessary empty blocks.

Luck finding blocks is not affected by the size of the block, but they choose to make empty blocks anyway.

Each time they do this, that's rewards lost for PPLNS miners, and extra transactions not confirmed until later.

This has been discussed a lot in the past, there's even a thread about it, but most people seem to think it's ok to ignore for some unknown reason.
If you go back to Jan 2018, txn fees were around 30% extra, so that's a lot of BTC to throw away on a single empty block.

^^^^^this times 100%

and Kano does not make payouts just once a month SMH - he makes payouts at every block that is found and he never has empty blocks.  It can go long spells between blocks but the payout is higher as well. 

@john139 -- using what you posted of  1T * 24H = 0.00003958 BTC - If I apply that to my miners (I have 80 TH on Kano) I would make .0981584 before 2% fees and .09619523 after fees. with Kano pool, if the block is only 12.5 in rewards (no tx fees) which there are always tx fees but as they vary I will simply use 12.5, and the same TH I will get .033 per block found before his .9% fee and .032703 per block after fee. So if we find 3 blocks in a month I am thus even with slush/antpool etc that you got the 1T * 24H = 0.00003958 BTC from.

And if we find more than 3 blocks, I am ahead. Now this can vary by pool size - the calculations are based on current pool hash rate. however as it usually does, when the hash rate increases and my payouts decrease, the blocks are then also found more frequently and it tends to break even.

the only hard part is waiting for it to ramp up while the pool hashrate is so small.

Nice a price drop considering the bump in BTC price.

even better - I hear buyers who bought in the first round are also getting coupons for the next round, lower price and coupon discount - much better price.

you got yours already? nice!
8265  Bitcoin / Pools / Re: [4+ EH] Slush Pool (slushpool.com); Overt AsicBoost; World First Mining Pool on: April 23, 2019, 05:02:01 PM

yes my lack of patience  Grin Grin,
i had another questions ?
1)in other pools like antpool you can see  how many of u r shares has been accepted and how many rejected ( stale or ...) , i did want to know how can i see my stale shares on slushpool
2) i didnt change my miners min difficulty and it is 128 from the first day isn't it less?  I have 30 ,M3 miners my scoring hash rate is about 358 some how it is ok in comparison to my miners capacity , so can this mean difficulty is correct and no need to be changed whether automatically or manually ?
tnx if any one can help me Huh Huh

I would say to stay away from both antpool and slushpool - i have used both in the past and slush is my failover currently for a set of 5 miners. but I would not use them for primary.

I have 20 miners - 5 point to kano.is, 10 are pointing to viabtc and the other 5 at various pools mining non btc sha256 coins.

well the new batch of 17's should be on sale soon - per the email I got from Bitmain, the new prices are a bit lower - see attached screenshot. and yes.... he called me bro...

hey guys
what is wrong with slushpool , is it really bad luck ?  or there is some problem going on ?  Angry Sad Sad Sad Huh

65.54 %
10 Blocks
-----
98.83 %
50 Blocks
------------
102.71 %
250 Blocks


their current luck (last 10 blocks or so) is low but overall their luck is where it should be. you can see that by looking at the long game - the 50 and the 250

That would be 8.5T (R4). Don't worry, its not one of those Gekko usb sticks Smiley

I always wanted to get my hands on one of those R4's but could never manage to do so - is it really quiet enough to be in the same room with? I don't trust the videos I have seen lol

Yeah that's probably the 0.63% and a little variance.
The extra 0.63%will add back a few of the older shifts into your average.

The above is probably the cause, however, the graph seems to be running off the left end since the 5Nd is getting bigger, so I'm not 100% sure it's correct.
The average number shown there is calculated when it draws the graph, so it may also be a little off due to the large number of shifts now making 5Nd running off the left ...
I've just made the graph a little wider - see if that made any difference.

and yes it did, average went up by 1.5 th/s  - thanks!

Your shift graph average line change, each shift, will be affected by the point that moves off the left, vs the point added on the right.

However, on a diff change, the length of the 5Nd will also change, in this case it got a little longer due to the diff drop (-0.63%) so that can affect it also of course, but only when the diff changes.

understood - the point dropping off the left is nearly 20 TH lower than the one adding to the right. I would just love to be fully ramped up, its been since Feb and I am still 15 TH from fully ramped up, when yesterday i was only 13 TH from it, so from my perspective, I am moving backwards not forwards.

ouch... even though i added more hash about 5 weeks ago my average is now going down starting today? i know i had less hash 2 months ago but as that drops off my average should increase i would think not decrease.

I wish my little miner could find it, it would be hilarious...

how much hash are you pointing at kano?
8273  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: New buildout with buysolar has entered stage 2. on: April 20, 2019, 07:27:17 AM
have to mention that to buysolar

that is my whole intention - build a data center and rent out at least half the space to companies looking to have offsite back ups or to store their servers - that pays my bills and then use the rest of the building to mine. but I cant get a loan unless i can get the electric company to commit to the transformer and they are being bitches about it. I am sure it is normally an easy task and this delay is mostly due to my lack of experience in this type of shit.

is there any way to cancel/refund the year subscription I paid for the web services since I cant use them anymore to control the miners? I dont need to pay for that if it is only to monitor them
You can cancel the subscription to not get any future charges. You can still use Cloud Services for the period of time you paid for but there are no refunds.

I would however suggest to consider finding or waiting for a solution to the SSH restrictions in the recent Antminer firmware. There are quite a number of users in the community that all find the recent Antminer SSH restrictions a problem and are looking for solutions. Although there may not be any perfect solutions today, it might very well be available in the near future.

If you already upgraded your Antminer firmware to a version where SSH isn't enabled, it looks like these are the steps required to reset the firmware back to an older version:
https://support.bitmain.com/hc/en-us/articles/360019493654-S9-series-S9-S9i-S9j-S9-Hydro-Control-Board-Program-Recovery


I get cancelling will stop future and although I can use cloud services for monitoring that is 100% useless to me, monitoring without the ability to interact with the miners is pointless. But I paid for a full year for it to do exactly what it can no longer do.

I again understand this is a bitmain issue and I have sent an email almost daily (hoping to bug the shit out of them) so maybe that one day in the future it will be a non-issue and I can use the software again.

as for reverting the control board firmware, I will read that and see if it something I can do.

8275  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: New buildout with buysolar has entered stage 2. on: April 20, 2019, 02:24:35 AM
not to mention if mining is unprofitable you could double as a data center and rent out rack space to non mining entities.

Stryfe, which miner do you have that is SSH disabled? If it is the Z11, I've released an unencumbered image to re-enable SSH just for awesomeminer.

If it is another one, I can probably provide an image for you for that, too.

S9's and sorry I dont use modified firmwares - thank you for the offer.

I'm not sure why you guys are even entertaining this, off course this isn't legit. S17 at half the price it was just sold out for a couple days ago?

exactly and when they refuse to use escrow service (which is a well known and trusted escrow) then it just makes it more obvious if its BS.

I am a leading escrow I would be willing to act as escrow if op wants to allow escrow.

I am also interested in the s17 at the price you offer to sell it for.

As that is a very good price.

If you are legit let us know.
especially with the buy 3 get 1 free.  that puts 4 miners at 1,012.50 each - if legit, phil - want to do a group buy? 2 each? Smiley

The Clifton location is 👍 we are going to have a lot hash there.

niiiiiiceeeeee! super jealous lol.
