[POOL][ANN] Ethereum mining pool http://aurorapool.net -- 0.7% fee PROP payout

[teaserX]

Aurora Pool is closing. Due to the extreme rise in the network difficulty and a lack of miners Aurora Pool can no longer support itself. We may reopen in the future but there is not currently a specific plan for that. Thanks to everyone who helped with tech advice and hashing power. Good luck to you all.

We seem to be stuck on a particularly hard block.  We could use a little help    http://aurorapool.net

I raised the number of significant digits to 3. I not sure what "also make rounding in the big party" means.

I've lowered the payout threshold to 0.01 ETH

[teaserX]

Does anyone know why the round variance for a pool would go over 300% or if there is anything that can be done to help?

Got through this block finally! Got another right after

Hello!

It seems you support miningrental, but how to mine with nicehash? I get difficulty too low with the same settings... :-(

[MikeLove2]

The block is found! Make charges!

[teaserX]

Payouts have run.

Hello!

It seems you support miningrental, but how to mine with nicehash? I get difficulty too low with the same settings... :-(

Nicehash does not explicitly state which protocol they are using (stratum or getwork). Try using http://aurorapool.net:80  in your connection string for getwork proto.

[kane777]

They use stratum as far as I can tell. It seems they can connect fine, but the pool difficulty is too low, so it ends up disconnecting.

I would be happy to bring a couple GH to your pool, but without nicehash support, I can't :-(

I am able to mine from Nicehash using the following pool settings:

Type Standard
Algorithm DaggerHashimoto
Pool aurorapool.net:8008
Username 0x<WalletAddress>
Password #

I found a FAQ on their site that mentioned the '#' is required as the password for expanse and ETC pools. Seems to work for Aurora Pool as well

It seems there is still something wrong, because nicehash reports the connection keeps dropping due to difficulty too low. Basically, I can mine for a few seconds and then it disconnects due to diff to low, then reconnects and mines for a few seconds, etc. 

[teaserX]

PM me your wallet address  so I can gomback through the logs and see what is happening.

[teaserX]

Is anyone else having trouble with nicehash or other cloud mining service, or any issue connecting to the pool for that matter? I am happy to help.
Nicehash solved see http://aurorapool.net/#/help

To whoever it was that asked about the transaction fees the answer is yes they are paid out to the miners.

Why is Claymore miner recommended?

[Hydro5150]

Can I have two Mist accounts on the same computer, you know, with two keystores?  If so can you tell how?

[teaserX]

Claymore's miner can mine other cryptocurrencies, like Siacoin and Decred, while it mines ethereum.  I am working on a decred pool so that aurorapool users can dual mine.
