Great advice now that the pool is smaller. I would specifically move the hash into CKpool after a block find which is mostly likely what philipma is meaning.

money is not lost  I gave you a full set of instructions  via pm  on your best move.

to keep the .29 derp alive here at very little cost

and earn a lot of coin elsewhere.

This is now  a higher risk pool  for a guy with 1 ph of hard iron.

[Crypthub]

Yes and very helpful advices !
You’re the man 👊

Would be nice to get a block before the next halving event..

It is actually very likely that several people here even if they stopped today will still not be fully paid out until after the halving.

We have around 5 Years to go for the next halving... this pool is not that bad!

Mine on (here and not at antpoo or viabtc )

5 years?   Try about 15 months.

Block Halving ETA: 465 days, 8 hours, 22 minutes

Date ETA: May 3, 2020

Oh, you are right, my fault it is 15 Months, but the pool is not that bad eigther

I'd appreciate it if people didn't actively discourage people from mining here on this thread at least, thanks.

Yeah, we want more people to join!  lol

Getting some more big dogs here helps everyone out, especially if they stick around!  And even with the 5N ramp-up, all those shares get paid out.

[philipma1957]

even a guy with 3 m10's  or 7 s9's

he fears risk of variance

so mine 1 of the m10's here
and mine 2 of m10's at a pps+ pool

I simply don't understand  why people don't do this more.

a 60-40
   50-40
   40-60  blend is one way

all or nothing is tough when a pool is doing  1 block a month

but 3 or 4 here  and 6 or 7 on a pps+ pool  allows  the best of both worlds .

5n pool like this is better only if there is enough hash to hit a block every 3-7 days.

so we now hit a block a month.  I get a monthly power bill.  a 300% bock means a 3 month wait  and I need to pay 3 power bills .

I now have expanded to 500th  I simply can not handle 3 months without a payment.

 So I have 100 th here
and 400 th on a pps+ pool

more people need to understand this and do it. when this pool drops to 5 month 5n.

[Morlok8k]

Fair enough, you make a valid point - the timing of payments is unpredictable.  (Also, diversification of funding sources is smart.)

Unpredictable enough that I would keep a reserve and not live paycheck to paycheck blocksolve to blocksolve. Keeping a minimum balance (BTC or $) so you have funds to last the 300% block dry spell.  And I would hope that the big hashers are financially smart enough to keep reserve funds!

It really all depends on the situation, but my main point was that we need more hash!

[minefarmbuy]

I think there's something to be said about honest, quality advice. If anything we should see more hash in the weeks to come.

Being a smaller miner I'm happy to let my machines pump ck pool all day if can. Then my time preference is very low compared to most others.

Reserves in any business is important.

Which I did and still have but expanding from 60-90th to 500th alters  the amount of time I can handle

[minefarmbuy]

Philip your information is always thoughtful, which my comment was directed to your contributions specifically. 

[philipma1957]

I try to give good info.  This is a great pool and in the long run should be the best paying pool for btc there is.

A lot of people simply don't understand the math.
Or for that matter  smart risk vs stupid risk.

When the North Jersey Build is done we will have 500th btc  and 7gh ltc

3 people in on it.

50% to the warehouse owner
25% to  me
25% to buysolar

that will be 125th at no continuing cost to me.

I will make sure to have some of the hash here at all times  wether renting it or hard iron.

most players should be doing this if they have gear outside china they should point some here
It is simply stupid not to have some pointed here.

Also we are closing in on next jump  and it may be a drop which is helpful
