Buy from the manufacturers or their distributors only.
And remember that only Canaan has multiple distributors. Bitmain, eBit, Whatsminer, all sell through a single distributor or site.

I download BFG it was showing issues as trojan after checking I did not want to use. All miners show up as a trojan to most AV systems. Its a false alarm as long you download from legit links, like the one in the thread.

Do I have to build that from the source? I am unsure how to do this. Yep - they have directions on how to do it. However, if you're not running a Linux variant already, it might be tough. Why are you using a proxy vs. connecting your miners with different workers?

Wow, I go on vacation for a few days and the pool almost doubles in hash rate. Welcome to all the new power miners.

By the way - got me a couple Pi 3 boards, one running Minera and one with Raspbian Lite. Got Raspbian set up with cgminer running on boot so I can plug them up head-to-head and see if one of them won't lock up and die every couple hours.
Right now I'm not terribly confident about Minera. I'm having a hard time convincing myself that being able to edit the config via webpage is worth dealing with the tons and tons of scripting garbage all over that webpage.
I moved away from Minera to a pure Raspbian for my 2Pacs and haven't looked back. Adding a screen command to my rc.local in case the miner rebooted for whatever reason, and a cron job to restart once a week, but it has been more stable for me than Minera was.

My S9s seem to get lazy and not finding a share with over 2B difficulty. They just need to work hard to crack that block!

How can i sell my s9s?
Post on the marketplace > computer hardware here and expect to use an escrow service when selling. You can also sell on eBay.

You will ramp down for a similar period to when you ramped up. If we find a block in that time, yes, you get paid.

So, I apologize if this is a stupid question or has been asked before in this massive thread... Is it correct that as the overall pool hash rate goes up, the overall payout per share goes down? Would this then also mean the hashrate below which only dust payouts are given keeps going up. I am a bit concerned that if I am not able to add more hashrate to my measly 26-27TH and the pool grows by a lot, then the rewards per block will get to the dust level. I know that is probably a long way off but it is still a thought that crossed my mind. Is there a way to calculate where the "dust-only" cut-off is? (Disclaimer: I hope to add another 11TH in March when the 821 gets delivered so maybe I should just stop worrying about it - feel free to tell me that ) Overall pool hash rate going up means pay per block goes down, but frequency of blocks found goes up.

They don't show the other side of the board, but I don't see any IO interface or even any way to power that board.
I had a closer look at this board. Yes they are there, see this picture for more details: (link: https://i.imgur.com/nkBpsxJ.jpg) But there are no power connector locations populated with a power connector in this particular board in pictures. Thanks for pointing that out!

I'll believe it when they prove it. A picture of a PCB with some components and chips doesn't show they actually work.

Would you want the profitability at that time, or compared to some price?
For example, in Jan 2010, the profitability was negative, even though you were getting coins that could be worth hundreds of thousands at today's prices.
If profitability was negative, it would be better to switch off miners and just buy coins from the market. There was no market in early 2010. BTC had no value.

Is there a way to increase the amount of time you stay logged in? Like make it ask you for your username/password once a day? Or stay logged in forever?
What data are you trying to get? The API can provide just about everything and you don't need to be logged in as long as you have your API key. I just like refreshing my https://kano.is/index.php?k=usperf every couple of hours. However, it seems when you don't do anything on the website, your login times out after a period of time. I was just thinking it would reduce the number of logins if it had a longer session length. I did generate an API key. Is there a guide to using the API somewhere I missed? Thanks! The API will return your stats in JSON format with: https://kano.is/index.php?k=api&username=<your_username>&api=<your_key>&work=y&json=y

Close, the more hashrate the pool has the faster the 5Nd ramp. Mine On! Both the miner and the pool. Your ramp up time would be very quick if you brought 20ph/s, for example. Add 20Ph/s Bring it!! Right? Let me just go forward in time and bring back a 20 PH USB stick.
