[4+ EH] Slush Pool (slushpool.com); Overt AsicBoost; World First Mining Pool

[Erumara]

Thanks again to Organofcorti and Philipma1957, you are gentlemen among trolls 

This discussion is so entertaining, counting T-minus 2 weeks until it starts up again with the same old FUD.

Nailed it, almost exactly two weeks.

Please read back through the recent discussions. If you have irrefutable evidence Slush is taking part in block withholding, or that there is block withholding going on, or that he is siphoning funds, you can post it here or in the Scam Accusations thread.

If you are here to spread FUD and make more nonsense accusations you can go to Kano's thread, you will be welcome there.

You don't want to mine on Slush anymore? No one cares, that's your choice to make.

... and if you are a dickhead keep posting like Erumara.

... and if you are a dickhead keep posting like Erumara.

Ooo jeez, almost hurt my feelings this time, always a pleasure when you grace us with your presence.

[KNK]

... you are a dickhead ...

You seem to use this sentence too often when talking to others. Maybe you should stop looking in the mirror while posting

two days ago I was barely hitting my payout. These past two days I've collected my annual payout nearly twice to three times a day. I'm loving this pool luck!!!

It might be dead for the next 3days

It might be dead for the next 3days

Why do you say that?

[Sir Alan]

Three in a row — nice!   

[CarrollFilms]

I'm hashing blocks left and right. Today is a good day.

[ZephramC]

ok..you are a senior member and do not get the withholding attack ideea?

Which one? Do you mean Finney attack (committed by the pool and buyer against some merchant)? Or do you mean block withholding attack committed by individual miner against mining pool?
If there is another kind of withholding attack I would be delighted to know.

Must be a lot of new hardware going online for the pool. Saw a drastic jump to 76.00 Ph/s. Could've sworn it was 68/69 at least two hours ago.

I saw it reach 82,10 Ph/s at one point, and one block was found when the rate was 81,32.  But every time somebody throws a huge amount of extra power into the mix the only effect seems to be to reduce the amount we get paid per block — my subjective view is that the pool doesn't actually appear to benefit by mining additional blocks.

Generally, the bigger the pool the lower the variance -- and all miners want lower variability in their income, right?

What all miners want is more profit, yet they always get hung up on variance and it they end up choosing the lower variance option over better profits to their own detriment. It's a pattern that hasn't changed in years... I praise the pool ops who have the stamina to explain it over and over and over and over and over and over and...

[Sir Alan]

my subjective view is that the pool doesn't actually appear to benefit by mining additional blocks.

By which I meant that the extra hashing power doesn't seem to result in additional blocks being mined – at least, not conspicuously so – but I haven't looked at the figures in detail.

I kinda jumped the gun there, huh.

Sorry, my fault for being ambiguous.

Slush is mining 0x8000004 blocks. What is that?

[cryptme]

Slushpool is at between 70-80 Ph/s, yet no blocks are discovered.
On the 19-th there were 19 blocks found
On the 20-th 2 blocks
Today until now 1 block.
How is this working? Do  they have some problem or just ... luck?
