where can I find stats for this mining pool? Like for example, current block, history of solved blocks, total shares for solved block, graph of pools total hash rate etc.?
Thanks
Hi Greatwolf, thanks for asking. I'm assuming that with 'current block' you mean 'current round'. Just in case you're not: Information on the current
block and loads of other Bitcoin network info can always be found at
http://www.blockexplorer.com.
As for ABC-specific stats, everything we publish is available in the Stats section of ABCPool.co. A subset of the sitewide stats is available through our API, and personal stats are available after logging in and again through our API.
However, you won't find the stats you're asking for on our site!
ABCPool is all about predictably high mining rewards. The stats are focussed on helping (potential) miners manage their rigs and optimize their rewards. ABCPool is a PPS pool, meaning our miners always get the same high amount for every share submitted, no matter when (or even
if) any blocks are found. Current or historical round information, while interesting, has no impact on earnings. There are also some practical barriers to providing round info, because we offload part of pool risk to third parties to be able to offer you such a competitive rate.
Besides generating steady rewards, the PPS mechanism also makes these rewards completely independent of (the hash rate of) other users. The sitewide hashrate we publish is mostly useful so miners can easily verify whether the pool is running smoothly. I don't know if anyone is graphing it; we'd be happy to reference such a graph.
If you are missing any info/stats that would help you achieve better performance at ABCPool, we are always open to suggestions! Just recently we've added a page continuously reporting the performance of the various mining clients people are using. Use it to your advantage
Happy Hashing,
MC
