We added two features: 1. If you enter an invalid address you will be rejected (authorization error). So no more "lost lottery tickets"  Make sure you use valid/existing address when connecting! 2. You can set preferred mining difficulty. Our system is using vardiff and will automatically adjust optimal difficulty for your miner. Nevertheless you can set custom preferred difficulty by setting diff_xxx in your worker password, example for Bitcoin pool: stratum+tcp://stratum.solo.nicehash.com:3334 -u yourAddress.Worker1 -p diff_2048 Very good! Thank you for being responsive! |

I'd love to know where you think you can get cheap reliable servers and not have to have them connected in a good data centre with good network and not bother about bandwidth ... etc ... etc ... etc ... and get 3% of the network (1 BTC a day) ... lulz how many pools have 3% or more?
GHash, Eligius, BTCGuild, Slush they are all around 3% at the moment.
So some unknown is going to be able to open up a pool and get more miners than those pools?
You're dreaming.
Next is running a pool - so you think it's sit back and watch the BTC roll in is it?
It's a 24/7 job to run a reliable pool and either you have that time available or you also have to pay someone to do that also ...
Then there's software ... and how much resources it needs to even run 1% of the network ... let alone 3% ... or more ...
You really don't know what you are talking about - stop guessing - and pretending you are correct.
i'm not guessing, how those other pools got there at 3% network? you are telling me that is it impossible to reach even 1% of the network? i don't think so, sry but i can argue that you are guessing as well i'm not seeing that it can be done in one day, but it just worth it to invest in it, there is a good chance in some months to control at least 1%, it is for sure less than a gamble than trying to roi with miners equipment, or hoping for btc to rise to 1k this year... Amph unless you have owned and ran a pool I think I will take advice and side with someone who has. |

From my experience, and what I've heard from others, you have to be careful with extranonce with Bitmain hardware. They tend to not fail back to the alt pools when the price changes.

My S3's would not failover sometimes but the S5's seem to failover just fine. (its very frustrating to find your miner just sitting idol) |

ok I bought some rentals.. LETS KICK SOME HASH! BUST SOME BLOCKS!  I did the same |
|

What I'm truly not understanding is why are blocks taking so much time and effort? Since the beginning of the year there have been four blocks found that required more than 200,000,000,000 shares to find. I compare that to bitminter, and they didn't have one that bad. So are the shares being calculated differently at the two pools or does BitAffNet just have awful luck some of the time, probably due to pool jumping?
The more recent you go the worse it looks, but luck has not been around for four weeks according to the stats. And past 12 months is showing a 10% bonus, now 1% bonus, is ans was impossible. A 2.06% fee since the beginning might have the pool decent, but that still doesn't even pay for any of the nodes around the world.
Last 24 Hours 284.48%
Last 7 Days 160.15%
Last 2 Weeks 132.64%
Last 4 Weeks 114.09%
Past 12 Months 102.06%
PPS pools are the most vulnerable to cheats |

I hope you get paid, but it just seems its time to stick a fork in it. |

I just sold a S5 and will sell you one in person if you live near South Bend. PM me if your interested.
Thanks, but I live near the Indianapolis Airport just west of Indianapolis. Ok ...was just in Indy last weekend. I have received my miners in 2 days from Bitmain. Its kind of fun to watch just how good UPS is. The only hold ups are in Alaska depending on weather or mechanical problems. But once it get to KY its up to Indiana fast. |

Just wondering why you want to set up a new pool?
maybe because of fee? if his pool can become famous enough, you can earn a lot with fees, i know this is true with altcoin, it should be with bitcoin too There are some good pools out their already, so in order to take miners away you will have to charge less and/or offer something better. I would think the profit can't be that great at some of the pool fees that are being charged. If you could get big enough it looks like a full time job, then the larger you get the more equipment upgrades you need. Then very few pools seem to stay at the top for long, and now you have all the equipment manufactures doing their own pools. In my opinion home mining may very well be coming to a end or at least not growing like it once was. I am sure there is a lot that I have not even touched on but I just don't seeing it being a great move especially for someone that had to ask about whether a hosting service will work to host the pool.  |

I see the pool hash rate rising...
Came home today to no internet, so my machine was offline a few hours.
I just got my internet back up after fighting with Centurylink for the last 3 days trying to get the information from them so I could config my modem as all they wanted to do was sell me one of their crappy modems. I have never seen so many clueless people doing tech work and thank god for Google. So I have my S3 mining again here now. |

Pool Luck* (24H / 3D / 1W / 2W / 1M / 3M / All Time): 62.888% / 76.267% / 88.769% / 90.841% / 95.706% / 91.032% / 96.847%
very lame.. especially with a 2% fee
That luck would be better with a 0% fee? Bad luck is bad luck regardless of fee's. you fucks think your so intelligent you're fucking stupid. Harsh, I think OP was voicing how people wouldn't use that pool seeing a 2% fee. Hence why I prefer Antpool for my S4's. OP? LOL... the original poster started this thread in July of last year and was asking about BTCG luck and if all pools used PPLNS. Somebody (BCwinning) decided to revive this post from the dead and buried to show that BTCG luck is still bad. LoL I didn't see the dates.....had no idea this thread was that old! |

the miner with a wrong address would not find a block as I understand this.
Yes unless I am reading it wrong I also see it that way, that a miner could be mining and never know he is not going to get the block if he finds one. That is why I pointed it out, as I have copied and paste a wallet address before and some how missed a digit. |
|

If you enter an invalid address it will be ignored and earnings will be donated to the pool. Make sure you use valid/existing address!
I think I like the way CK has his solo pool set up that if you try and mine with a invalid address your rejected....sure would hate to think someone would find a block only to not get rewarded. |

The pool is 125BTC behind in payments and it keeps getting worse.
And it reports 4PH/s... payouts get further and further behind, yet people continue to mine on the pool. Unreal. Yes it is unreal. |

I would take physical gold over BTC for sure. What if the earth gets hit with a all time huge Solar flare which shuts down the electric grid for months or even a year...what good are those bitcoins going to do you? Gold in hand could be a life saver
