[ANN][BOT][POOL][PPLNS][STRATUM][VARDIFF] Silverwolf's Bottlecaps Pool LAUNCH!!

[the1silverwolf]

Moved VARDIFF and POW/POS support into Beta.

[the1silverwolf]

We still need more miners !

[the1silverwolf]

I apologize for my recent lack of response on the forums and the support tickets.  I've been in and out of the hospital this week.

I'll do my best to get caught up this weekend.

Thanks for your patience.

Is this pool still in Beta? I have one miner on right now testing.

Everything looks stable. I've put some hashing power on it and it's finding blocks nicely. The coin value is falling right now, so 25% of the CAP network hashing power has disappeared instantly, but difficulty has also fallen dramatically.  I'll stay on it a bit and see what results I get. It would be nice if we could double the hashing power to 20MH.

Also, I've noticed a few blocks are being reported as: finder unknown. Why is that?

I've mined through 14 blocks including 1 orphan. I have 90% of the hashing power, no other are miners coming or going. Why am I getting only 56.78% of the round shares?

Current Round Shares
Your Valid: 2448
Pool Valid: 4312

Shouldn't I be receiving 90% of the shares?

Had to leave pool. Was only getting about 58 percent of the expected amount overnight. Wasn't finding enough blocks. Maybe variance. Pool luck.

What's up with this pool? I joined this morning and it was working fine, but now everything is dead.

currently there is a fork issue happening.silverwolfs pool has been listed as on right fork , so you should be ok, just stay patient until it gets resolved. for more information , there is another post mentioning bigverns cap pool.

I don't think Silverwolf's pool is on the right chain.  It says we're currently on 54025, but the correct chain has over 77350 blocks.

You're right. Another waste of time. Most miners have jumped ship. Thanks GoldBit89.

Pool is not paying out. BEWARE. No response to open tickets.

It can't pay out because it's on the wrong chain .

[the1silverwolf]

The BOT pool is now OFFLINE !!!

Due to issues with the fork.

Service will be restored once all issues have been resolved.

I wish you could have acted more quickly about this.  People have been mining for at least a day and a half on the wrong fork.

I wouldn't blame silverwolf for this as the issues have been pretty clear. It is very important to understand crypto especially if your making an investment in mining it. The pool showed 56000 as the current block for a day or so. Which was clearly way under the current block count. Yet it gathered 60MH's mining a block chain that was 30k short of the current chain blindly. The main issue that caps is having is folks not getting on the new versions with check points blindly mining for the profit. I highly encourage everyone to research and lean about these things and you wont have the problems your experiencing. Stay current on your wallets and stay up to date on the stock/commodity/currency/coin you are trading in. Whether its caps or something else.

Bottlecap block explorer

If your wallet or pool ever doesn't match the approved block explorer something is wrong its everyone invested in the currencies job to keep up to date on current events.
