Current Time to find from ftc.theblocksfactory.com/statsAuth

28 hours 50 min 47 sec and counting... ( At the time I'm writing )
Network Hashrate has not change that much.
Pool Valide Hashrate is much lower than usual.

This is not uncommon for small pools where it can take weeks to find a block.
On another pool, we just found an XMR block this morning after 7 days mining... and still waiting for an VTC after 15 days.  Smiley

For FTC,  I'm using the linux version of  https://github.com/tpruvot/ccminer

For the reject shares, [ I'm not sure about duplicate... ]
but try setup without vardiff by using  username.workername_diff64 (or _diff256)


It's the first time I see the pool taking more than 11H to find a block!
And it seems that more and more 5-6H intervals are popping.

Please for the love of the lord in heaven can you upgrade to Feathercoin  0.13   

It is our latest major release and we need pools to upgrade. 

Thank you.


Only the pools need to upgrade ?
Current mining softwares or paper wallets are still good ?

What new in FTC 0.13 ?


Thanks

any of the coins at the blocks factory can be mined with cpu?

 Not effectively, I'm pretty sure.

 DGB-SHA, DGB-Qubit and DGB-Scrypt are ASIC mined (Bitcoin miners like the S9, the Baikal, and Litecoin miners like the L3+ and A2/A4 respectively).

 DGB-Skein and DGB-Groestl are GPU mined.

 The neoscrypt coins have GPU miners available, but I've never really looked into those to date.

 As far as I know, the only thing worth mining at this time on a CPU is the cryptonight coins like XMR(Monero), at which your Ryzen is fairly good.


 I didn't notice any pool-side improvement on DGB-groestl using the KlausT fork of ccminer vs trpv, and very little if any better on the miner reported rate.
 
 Best to check for at least a 3 hour period though, normal variation could EASILY exceed that 50% variance you say on a 15-minute test.



 Trying to mine scrypt on a CPU has been worthless for YEARS - GPUs for scrypt got replaced 4-5 YEARS ago by ASIC, and that was a year or two after CPUs got blown out of the water by the first GPU-based miner.

 Do you even get 100khash/sec on your Ryzen for scrypt?

 For comparison - my Innosilicon A2 units (which are GENERATION OLD ASIC and pretty badly outperformed by the more recent Bitmain L3+ and Innosilicon A4) pull 110 MEGAhash (on the miner, about 105 usually at the pool) on 1250 watts draw at the wall.







Hi

Any chance to offer an XMR(Monero) pool ?    xmr.theblocksfactory.com    Smiley

Will you revive the vtc pool in a near future ?

Thanks!
