I understand that, so you are telling me Slushpool isn't doing this on purpose? I'm just trying to get down to why it happened so suddenly out of the blue.

not sure what you mean when you get "6.5-7" coins per your 18TH...was there a period of bad luck on the pool? Remember the pool has to find blocks before you get paid, if they find less blocks...it takes longer to reach your payout.

6500 or 7000 satoshis per reward/block. I understand how mining works.

Doesn't seem so.   Slush's hash rate has risen, yours hasn't, so you make less per block.

Just to clarify, the rewards are only influenced by rising network difficulty at the end: https://bitcoinwisdom.com/bitcoin/difficulty

Pool size only influences short-term variance of the rewards, not the amount.

Btc prices is so bad. I am a miner and I feel teriale. 
Any one like me?

[Efficiency V]

Looking for some help / recommendations.  I am running one 13.5 Th/s rated Antminer S9i on Slush Pool, Hardware version 22.0.1.3, firmware version Tue May 22 20:08:17 CST 2018.

My hardware hash rate is not matching my scoring hashrate on slushpool.  I understand that this will not match exactly because it depends on which are actually accepted by the pool... but my slush pool scoring hash rate seems to be all over the place.  Most often 1 - 1.5 Th/s lower than my hardware is showing... sometimes close to normal at 13 Th/s,   and even sometimes (rarely) showing hash score higher than my hardware 14+ Th/s.   It seems to swing up and down all the time, while my S9i stays right around 13.5 - 13.6 Th/s.  

Attached is a snapshot of what hardware / slush pool is showing / chart history showing that its up and down all over the place.  Does anyone have any recommendations as to how to get a more consistent scoring hashrate on slushpool of near 13.5 Th/s ?

hardware screen, it shows 13k GH/S(avg) , but I am thinking that me be affected by the miner being down for some hours during this time.  The hashrates from hardware to slushpool not matching are during a set period of time that I watching both closely, so Slushpool had time to adjust to the hardware hashrate.  Thanks in advance for the help guys!   BTC

Your daily average is 13.4 TH/s so that’s pretty darn close to right on the money. Scoring hash rate does tend to vary in real-time, but you should only really pay attention to variance from expected hash rate on the 1 hr and longer time periods.

Its proper bad! I have switched, Slush were upsetting me for some time with this irregular payment system that is near to impossible to keep track of.. better to have a payment at 12 midnight for your work and its done. not this rubbish.. miners working for days without a payment.

So ... some fun numbers for those of you that have some hash rate at slush also

Their last 5 blocks diff% is 1117%, 127%, 237%, 119%, 509%

Putting that into a CDF[Erl] calculation says it should happen about once every ... 717839 blocks

Sorta like one in a million - well almost

The lower tail gamma is 6.96535e-06 so i.e. it's one in (1/6.96535e-06) or 1 in 143567.8 x 5 blocks

But I'd suggest you get them to look into that - coz when they were looking for that 1117% block yesterday, their #1 top miner with 400PH was showing no found blocks ... ...

Yeah you really need to keep an eye on the stats ... though some pools (ckpool) have none at all to verify such things and don't keep any share statistics to check such issues.

Here is a screenshot of slushpool 7 hours ago when it had difficulty finding blocks i.e. 3% of bitcoin network hashrate. <a href="https://ibb.co/cf5RcJ"><img src="https://thumb.ibb.co/cf5RcJ/slushpool.png" alt="slushpool" border="0"></a>

Six hours later, slushpool is 7% <a href="https://ibb.co/fKc04y"><img src="https://thumb.ibb.co/fKc04y/7percent.png" alt="7percent" border="0"></a>.
