[4 PH/S+] BCMonster.com Mining Pool / [PPLNS Payout][Pays TxFee]

My S5 is pointed back here for several days, it takes turns between this and another small pool.  C'mon block!

Yea this is painful.  Good news is hopefully the next couple will fall easier.

The 1BTC blockfinding bonus is back for next round! Only condition is you have to be actively mining by the end of this round to qualify! Since we are due any share now, point your miners back here for a chance at 1btc next round!

Where can I see when the round is going to end?  The 'Round' tab on the web page appears to me to only show information about the round in which the last block was solved, is that correct?

Also, is there a reason that worker hash rate is shown in Khash/s on the 'My Workers' tab?  Ghash seems to make more sense for today's tech.

[krisgt30]

Our hash rate denominations are purely dependent on speed. If you are mining at low speeds it will show according to your hash rate. When I log in everything I see is in TH, unless pool speed jumps into the PH range, then it switches to PH. As for round, I meant when we find this block. Our rounds are by block until we get much larger.

All my hash rates are shown in TH/s on the site except for the 'My Worker' page, that is the only location it shows KH/s.  I thought it was a bit odd.  On your worker page does it show you TH?

Maybe I am misunderstanding the block finder bonus, but given your round definition then wouldn't the block finder have to be mining here 'at the end of the round" to have found the block that triggers the end of the round?

[krisgt30]

Yes mine shows T/H.

Point is the miners have to be actively mining until the end of this round(blockfind) to qualify for the bonus next round. It doesnt mean they will necessarily be the finder this round, the individual just has to actively be mining when an individual does find it this round.

So I gotta ask... is there a way for BCMonster.com to remember my login (like Slush's pool does)?  Just curious!!

[krisgt30]

I just use chromes auto fill settings to remember my login information.

I just use chromes auto fill settings to remember my login information.

Better use password manager i.e. LastPass unless you have good logon password.

So I'd like to put up a modest rental to help find the next block.  It wouldn't be anything big, but I've heard that some rentals have bad firmware that won't actually find blocks.  Is this true?

[krisgt30]

We havent seen proof of that yet in our logs for this round. They have been throwing up good shares, just not good enough.

Cool... that's good enough for me!

Bestshare on the
S5 is 206,136,062
S3 is 211,947,549
S3 is 340,991,192

Not bad can't wait for the diff change. Do you think china turned off their miners so as not to loose selling of miner business and also to get more blocks at lower diff for their mining operations?

Firmware............tried nicehash firmware on my S5 and whoa big mistake. My S5 has needed time to settled down from the hurt on that one. Luckily reflashed a copy of what it was before I made a change yet S5 still settled down after a month.

[Mikestang]

My S5 best share is 600,625,741 - I need to add a few more powers of 10 still. 

Luckily I have had cool weather for several days so it has been running all day + night.

 Ok noob here, After much lurking I decided to say Hi to everyone. No idea if my equipment is crap but still i'm leaving it pointed to your pool anyway. Seems like a great pool to be in.

Hi Kris,
Any news on the EU server?
Did you manage to get the domain you were after?
