Yes, there are over 40950 miners connected to the site. The normal number of miners is 8000 - 12000.

yes, still working on fine tuning. A few things I overlooked or set wrong lastnight before getting a few hours zZzZ. Mostly OS kernel performance tuning stuff. I haven't moved off a main server in a long time so don't have all the solutions on the top of my head but working through them as I notice.

Do you maybe know why I  am given this message?

"We are short of this currency (72.19827276 VTC). Please STOP your miners and switch to BTC until we find more VTC blocks.
YOU are responsible if you continue to mine for VTC dispite this warning."

Should I set up automatic transfer to BTC in the miner settings?

Crackfoo,

You have gone above and beyond, I can not say much more.

You have managed to get the site back up and running with a new server in under 24 hours, fantastic job from someone that runs this service on his own.

I just hope that the other miners think the same way, and that all the complaints stop and so on.

The pool is short on funds for the payout, more of that coin needs to be mined by the pool first, this is the reason you are getting this message.

Any earnings due for that coin will be delayed.

So, please change your payout to another coin, best use BTC with a bitcoin wallet address and c=BTC in the password field.

Would it help to set up the automatic conversion to BTC in the miner, or it is still the same case?

Thanks. Still not where I want to be yet in terms of stability. But I'll need to wait untill everything is caughtup and running on their expected schedules. There's still a backlog of earnings to process. We're down to 5.6million records and decreasing while yesterday we were 8.9million and growing so we're at least moving in the right direction. It's a bit tricky and slower because the pool is still live and would rather not close stratums for 12-24h just to play catchup. We'll get there nothing's being lost.

You realize he's not doing this for free right? He's making a ton of money - this is a business. There isn't anything wrong with reporting legitimate complaints.

Does anyone use Awesome Miner with zpool?

Out of all of the alternatives, I am finding Awesome Miner with zpool to be my best alternative to Nicehash.... but...

After setting up Awesome Miner with zpool, I am only seeing my rig mining Neoscrypt. I believe I have it setup to auto switch... but I have only seen it mine Neoscrypt since I started. When I used Awesome Miner in the past with Nicehash, it switched much more often.

At first I could not complain because I was making a decent profit rate... but now it has dropped and I am concerned.

____

Also... Does zpool support xmr in any way? I don't see it.

I was making a decent profit by mining xmr with my CPU with Nicehash.


Thank you for any help you can provide.

Yes, I know this.

Here is the crunch, he did not know that NiceHash was going to be hacked, he did not expect the large influx of miners from NiceHash, so really the complaints are not warranted based on this, the server failed due to the extra work load.

[guytechie]

Agreed.  Even though it's a business, it doesn't mean he should be treated like shit.  He's very transparent about everything going on and responsive when he isn't doing things people need to do to keep alive and sane (sleep, eat, rest, etc)

Maybe I came to this thread to late and missed all those posts but I've only seen 1 guy being an asshole. Others, like me, were simply reporting issues that we're having.

I agree with the original post. Thank you so much for your hard work! I work on IT and I know how tricky live migrations can be, specially with the amount of data you're handling. I came to zpool from the recent NH debacle and I'm glad to see that zpool has this level of commitment.

Swapped to ZPool after the NH incident.  I'm really liking it!  Looking forward to more stability on the website, but can't complain, it's a great pool.

Anyone have any experience with BTC transfer fee costs?  Just wondering how big of a chunk comes out of the 0.005 payout.  If it's a lot, can the payout be changed to a larger number?

Cheers,

5% for the exchange and a 1-2.5% for mining depending on the algorithm .. if i remember correctly. It was posted somewhere at some point, web interface kinda buggy atm.

Having worked on optimizing databases most of my career, I am curious to know what sort of backend databases projects like zpool use? It's understandable that the system is slammed with such an influx of NH users. I just hope zpool has their security shit together

5% is a huge fee! Where did you see that? Here is the text copied from the main page of the site (nothing at all about an additional 5% fee)

No registration is required, payouts are made to the BTC address you mine with as your username.
Payouts are made automatically every 2 hours for all balances above 0.01 and balances more than 0.0025 are paid on Sunday evening. DCR requires min of 0.025 before payout will occur.
Exclusive FlexFee™ system reduces fee's based on the pool's hashrate on select algos. Look for the green line on the hashrate graphs.
There is an initial delay before the first payout as coins you mine need to mature then, exchange and get returned to zpool, please wait at least 24 hours before asking for support.
This is NOT a solo mining pool. All mining is pegged to exchange prices.
Non-BTC payouts depend on that coin being mined as your BTC balance is traded internally by our system to your currency of choice. If we have not or are not mining that currency your payouts will be delayed until the pool has mined the blocks for you to get paid. If you notice in the pools status that the currency is red, it means there is not sufficient amount of the currency to pay miner(s). It's recommended to use BTC as any other coin could be removed at anytime and payouts will not occur.
Addresses that are older than 6 months without any mining are considered inactive. Inactive accounts are purged after 6 months and any remaining balances are forfeited.
If a coin is NOT listed on the pool (except BTC) and you still choose to mine with that address, you risk not getting any payments.
BTC is the only guaranteed payout currency

Ok thanks for the update so it's normal to see big fluctuations like this right now?

[guytechie]

I hope it catches up before Sunday (payday for me - I don't make the minimum for the other days).  Because right now I can tell I'm not making as much as I normally do.

Even though it's been slowly declining, this week is a massive decline from last week.

*Crosses fingers*

I don't remember if it was on the website at all, but it is on the OP of this thread. 5% fee for auto-exchange, plus the pool fees. I'm pretty sure there's no fee on payout, though. Still a bit higher than MiningPoolHub, but even then from the testing I've been doing it seems that my daily payout on Zpool is still higher. MPH takes a 0.9% fee for the pool, plus a 0.2% auto exchange fee, plus a flat 0.0003 BTC fee on payout.
