are you likely to update to the latest Litecoin core software?

If there are no major objections, certainly. Our pool software has already been updated to be segwit-compatible.

Your call but maybe you could mention this on the news section of your pool? Since the voting will be based on mining, letting the miners know which side their hash power will vote towards would be nice.

Originally my intention was to give each pool user the ability to vote for or against the soft fork. However, after a few weeks of regularly checking the forums and r/litecoin, I was unable to detect anything even remotely resembling the kind of opposition that there is against Bitcoin's soft fork, so I concluded that the Litecoin community as a whole agreed with coblee's vision on segwit, and set my idea aside.
Over the last few weeks I have received a few emails from pool users asking about the pool's stance on the issue, but again, none of them was suggesting to oppose the soft fork.
Still, now I am realizing that there is some interest in the topic, so, for the sake of correctness, I feel that giving each user the ability to vote may not be such a redundant feature after all. I'll try to implement this quickly and then post in the news section about it.


I think thats a great idea, even if everyone is for SegWit. Once setup the same basic code could be used for the next fork as well, Id guess.

Im personally more neutral if not slightly for SegWit but Im sure there are some who are 100% for or against it and would like to know where to point there hash accordingly.

thanks for all you do.

Pool users can now express their vote on the upcoming SegWit soft fork.
Please refer to this page for the details: Litecoin 0.13.2 and SegWit support signaling

Just curious are miners actually voting in quantity? I just remember last summer when only a handful of miners actually voted on a notorious hard fork. It was like the rest didn't care. Do LTC miners care enough to vote? For the record I voted within minutes of the choice being offered.

So far, 81 users have voted. It's not a lot, but keep in mind that many miners do not check their account very often.

Is there gonna be a poll type bar chart or something to show results of your voting asking?

Curious what results would be your pool specific


Old Style Legacy Plug & Play BBS System. Get it from www.synchro.net. Updated 1/1/2021. It also works with Windows 10 and likely 11 and allows 16 bit DOS game doors on the same Win 10 Machine in Multi-Node! Five Minute Install! Look it over it uninstalls just as fast, if you simply want to look it over. Freeware! Full BBS System! It is a frigging hoot!:)

I plan to publish some results when signaling starts, i.e. after the next difficulty retarget (expected in 1-2 days).

Just to clarify, voting has no effect for users that are not mining. As explained more in detail here, each miner's vote is weighted by their hash rate, so as to simulate the signaling of many independent solo miners.

Thanks for the link. Still new to cryptoworld and the learning curve is quite steep.

I'm amazed that so many miners have voted. I remember for the ethereum hard fork, pools that had voting, only had single digit percentage participation. They called that 100 percent consensus.

I feel like people care more about the Litecoin network compared to Ethereum. Id guess a lot of miners only mined ETH for quick profit and didnt really care if it forked or anything.

EDIT: Or there were a lot more ETH miners so its possible the same number voted but it was a smaller percent of the ETH network.

No configuration is needed, merged mining is taken care of automatically by the pool. The extra rewards, converted to LTC, are what makes a >100% PPS rate possible.

Question, started in the pool yesterday. I started 3 new workers today and they all
Quit after hitting 200 shares exactly. Any idea
What would cause that.

2nd question when someone finds a block, is that shared with all active miners
At the time or is there something different.

No, I don't think I've seen what you describe before. If you need assistance send an email to support, and don't forget to include your username and a description of your hardware/software setup.

2nd question when someone finds a block, is that shared with all active miners
At the time or is there something different.

This is a PPS pool, not a proportional pool. This means that miners are rewarded based on the work they do (i.e. for every valid share they submit), not when/if a block is found.
See also this FAQ entry.

I'll get to emailing later, in the meant time here is an update to
The issue.

Device 1 worker 1mines nonstop
Device 2 worker 2 mined until 200 shares
Device 3 worker 3 mined until 200 shares
Device 4 worker 4 mined until 200 shares

As an experiment I switched device 1 to operate
Worker #2 and it stopped at 400, 600, 800 shares
