I use this-- http://www.alloscomp.com/bitcoin/calculator when speculating about hardware, I know it's falls rapidly out of date for future difficulty rises, but it gives me an idea of what a miner can do, immediately. What I want to know, is does anyone have a link to any mining calculator that might give me some ideas on solo mining? Like one that will say how many days/weeks you could expect a block for with a given hashrate? Does that make sense? Basically, a solo mining calculator. I'm not really planning on trying solo, but it would be interesting to know.

thanks.

confirmations stuck since 21304 they should be at 21311 by now

still stuck     should now be at      21314

My reward is still stuck at the same #21304.  Does Slush have a 'liquidity problem' or is it just a software glitch?  Does this affect just a few individuals or all pool participants?  Are you mining without an expectation to get rewarded or hope that the down-under saying of 'she'll be allright mate' will prevail.....!!!!

My support ticket priority has been elevated from 'normal' to 'critical'.  It has been something like 13 hours now, let's see how it goes.

Same problem. My unconfirmed keeps growing but my confirmed is at 0 even though about 2/3 of the unconfirmed reward actually has been confirmed. I also haven't received any payouts today even though my true confirmed balance is about 3x my payout threshold.

payouts time depends , i have same issue with confirmed section but receive payment before 3 hours approx

AlexeyK:  Did you receive payment 3 hours ago, or 3 hours before the 'confirmation freeze'?  (my last payout was more than 24 hours ago)

[AlexeyK]

2013-12-30 20:43 , changed payout amount to match already confirmed before stuck and after some time receive payment

But the additional 'actually confirmed' amounts remain 'unconfirmed' in the Account page? 
(my 'already confirmed' amount before 'stuck' is below the min threshold, so i probably can't do what you did).

I typically get 3-4 payouts per day. My last payout was at 3:02pm ET (USA) yesterday (29 hours ago).

Check this out - http://www.bitcoinx.com/profit/  Interestingly enough, my miner found a block for the pool yesterday! Too bad I wasn't solo mining, but possible I would have never found a block and earn 0.

Same story im at allmost .25 total unconfirmed !!! Something is up but I just hope the total reward gets paid correctly !! Strange payments have allways been pretty consistent

For Slush members wondering what is going on with threshold delayed payments...

"Typically, the pool sends confirmed rewards which are over threshold to users every hour.

For security reasons, the server's hot wallet (keeping funds immediately available for payouts) has quite a low balance. When the hot wallet becomes empty, the pool administrator has to load the wallet from the cold storage (a highly secured offline computer keeping pool's bitcoins). Since this process cannot be automated and only very limited number of people has an access to cold wallet, it can introduce a few hours' delay in sending coins to user's wall


if you found this post helpful, feel free to tip.  I will have a drink of Jack Daniels in honor of every tipper.

So someone went on holidays, without leaving sufficient petty-cash for those who shovel coal into the Slush boilers.... no reward, no hashing.....

still  strange that the confirmed earnings are not showing up in ´account´

Because if they showed up in 'account' that would trigger automated payouts, but the 'wallet is empty'..... so junior-operator-on-duty 'closed the tap' to avert disaster.... (but is that good enough? surly someone could have estimated the needed BTC for pool cash flow before they went incommunicado)

[Billbags]

Mabey they are waiting on coinbase??

[kabopar]

Now my 'total reward' on the account page was reduced by about 1/3 (it was correct before).... this is getting worse.....
