When i'm mining at kano.is i never know how much I have to receive it's all very confusing. There is no total receivable !
Depending on whether he decides that your worthy of being rewarded for your work or not, there may not ever be a receivable. It's a dictatorship, not an honest pool where all miners are rewarded for their work. He considers himself to be both the judge and the jury. I would love to hear more about the person/persons he is referring to that he has deemed unworthy of payout, and I'd also love to hear when and if he actually sends the guys Bitcoin that he has stolen from to the person he is talking about who he believes was stolen from. My bet is that he keeps it for himself forever and always. Otherwise why not send the stolen fruits now? He has already banned the guy from hashing away "for free" So no more free donations will be coming in. The time is now Kano, you are either Robinhood or you are Smeagle... Which one is it? Dude, seriously, even I am getting tired of your incessant railing against kano's logical arguments. For whatever reason, you simple do not make sense 75% of the time. Many times, I have started a post to refute many of your strange claims, but I have always had someone respond before with more eloquence. Just give it a rest for a few days.

holy sh*t sticks 49 days for a block??!!!
The pool hashrate is just too low. The variance is going to be really high.

Brand new account + a client who trusts you to find 200 S9's != warm fuzzy
Not to mention, they want to pay in BTC. I wonder if the OP's problem with BMT has to do with escrow.

Good to know it's not just a Cold War thing...
That was worth a chuckle.

Hi
I have a client looking to buy 200 S9 antminers. We source these machines for him and take a % commission of the sale price (from the buyer NOT from the seller)
Please message if interested
Seller will be paid via btc escrow service ideally - I am new to this forum but I'll have a look for a trustworthy user to oversee this sale. Both parties have to be happy with the user that provides the escrow service
To clarify, we don't buy these machines but act as middlemen for it and take a % commission
p.s. if you have <200 S9s for sale please get in touch as buyer may still be interested
ideally seller from US but will consider international sellers
Why not deal directly with BMT?

The contents of this thread have been invaluable. Still very much up to date and working. Carefully reading this thread got me a good working node and background knowledge of how it works. Thanks people.

Hey PublicP2poolNode. Im giving your strategy a quick trial. I think (rather hope) that the pool might grab a block in the next day or so. Ive just managed to rent 50TH to throw at a node over in the states. If this can get some shares in the next 12 hours and we get a block after that, hopefully it might work. Wish me luck.
The dice have been rolled... Good luck!

The Ethernet cable is fine; I've used the same one for all three miners and was able to get 2/3 of the miners up and running. Any other suggestions? Does this mean I would have to get a new controller board? Thanks
It is possible that you will need a new controller board. You could always check the cables from the hashing boards to the controller board to make sure that they are secure.

Any suggestion for a + figure for an S7 and an S9.
I finally got my new node running on a pretty quick rack server, and its sitting on an Ethernet leased line at work, rather than my crappy home broadband. Im still tweaking at the moment and the node restarts start the miners off from scratch again so a + figure (or method to work it out) would be appreciated.
Got a domain name as well now so take a look or give it a try (latency dependent) i guess. ukp2pool.uk:9332
I personally use +2048 on my S7-LN. I would use around +4096 for an S7 and +8192 for an S9. You could easily bump those up to +8192 and +16384 respectively and everything would be fine as well.

I got three Antminer S3 from someone who quit mining. I got two of them to work and are up and mining away, but the third not so much. On the third one, the fan spins and the LED lights up, but the two activity lights for the ethernet port doesn't light up when plugged in. However, when turning it on, one of the ethernet activity light would blink a few times before going dark. I've tried resetting, but ethernet still doesn't work. Any help please? Thanks
Did you try a different ethernet cable?

The "+" is pseudo shares. The node will accept shares at this difficulty from your miners. The lower the value, the smoother the hash rate graphs become. No value otherwise, and increases the network traffic. Basically, you are overriding the variable difficulty set by the node with your own static difficulty setting. The "/" is share chain shares. The node will only submit shares to the chain at the given value or higher. Even if a share meets the minimum share difficulty, the node won't submit it unless it also meets the target difficulty set by you.
I have been using the + option on my S7-LN miners for several months now. I found that without a constant share difficulty, I would get a cold board that would stop hashing every few hours. I am not really sure why the variable share difficulty was causing the board temperatures to fall below 52C, but now it only happens every few weeks.

The size of a miner is completely irrelevant. Hash is hash. There is no such thing as a miner draining the pool (unless he's purposefully withholding blocks), or for that matter a smaller miner somehow making a larger miner's hash less wasted. Miner 1 has no impact on the probability of miner 2 hitting a block, regardless of the hash rates of either miner.
Remember... that guy with 1.4PH could have a warehouse with 100 S9s, or 234 A721s, or 1273 S5s or 3091 S3. His hardware is no different than the guy with a single S3 in his basement... he just happens to have a whole lot more of it.
Yes, hash is hash. However, a pool stratum server can be overwhelmed with too many TCP connections by attackers with numerous low hash miners. It is my understanding that some pool operators have set minimum hash rate in order to protect pool resources from this form of attack. Although, I could be mistaken.

Thanks for the feedback. Is there a programmatic way to get the IPs of all the current p2pool nodes? I could use that to have the site automatically update.
That is a good question for windpath.

My pleasure... I ran p2pool nodes for a few years . You can use them in conjunction with each other... like: BTCADDRESS+13500/100000000
The "+" is for your stats. There are a number of old threads where the value of using it is debated. My opinion is that it only helps smooth out hash rate graphs on the node. The lower you set it, the more "pseudo shares" the node recognizes as valid work, and the smoother your hash rate appears on the graphs. Those lower diff shares don't get added to the share chain (unless of course they satisfy the share chain diff). The downside of this is that you are flooding the node with a whole boatload of useless information. The "/" actually helps the node for the reasons I mentioned in my previous post. Ummm, so what is the technical difference between the + and /?

The node scanner at p2pool.co is back up and working at http://p2pool.co. It was down for a little while. Please try it out. Feedback is always welcome. On this node scanner always limited node list. You must manually add them? Why not add all nodes with http://poolnode.info/? I always see way more nodes with poolnode.info while I usually only see a few on p2pool.co, but I am not really sure why.

Block found.!!! Fireworks Happy 2017 Yup, it is nice to bring in the new year with a block.

You should make sure that all devices have the same subnet mask of 255.255.254.0 or /23. If you do not, you will get wonky results and most likely devices with the of 255.255.255.0 or /24 will only communicate with half of the /23 subnet.

I thought that for sure we were going to find a block during that huge spike.

Hi folks. Is there any issue running classic as the backend for P2Pool or does it need to be core? Just I am upgrading a rack server this week at work during the holiday and the old box will be reprovisioned as a uk node. Something I've wanted to do for a while to lower my latency and we have a direct Ethernet comnection at work so probably makes sense.
Thanks for the info. I will go with classic as in my mind it's a better solution to Segwit and cores principles. Please don't thrash me over this one. I'm still reading about Segwit but it seems to begin to steer ownership towards core of the network. The new hardware never arrived this week so I'll have to wait a couple more days into the new year. I hashed up Ubuntu on an old office PC and started to get things working but nah the processors having none of it. Until then I'll keep mining to another node. I do not think anyone cares which software you use. It is more important that you properly configure your node for quick block submission and for optimal transaction payout versus worrying over SegWit support yes or no.
