man - what does that make this year? 5 or 6?
5 in short succession, all very lucky blocks. It can't continue indefinitely. Why are there times that the 3 S19 are at 240TH and other times they go up to 430!? Does it have something to do with whether they hit or miss!? Or is it just that sometimes they do more calculations and sometimes less!?

Hey guys,
does having a suffix ".1", ".3" etc. in my CKPool address invalidate my blocks?
Eg., if my address is "bc1q3et775a3z04rfyrsgpkepg0akprs8yvvu8cqxx" and if I send to the pool the user "bc1q3et775a3z04rfyrsgpkepg0akprs8yvvu8cqxx.2".
Will I be able to receive blocks on the correct address? Or should I remove the suffix and leave just the address?
What happens if multiple miners report for the same exact user?

Having the suffix allows you to see the reporting individually per worker, it won't invalidate your blocks. That way you will also know which worker in particular found the block, by looking at the best share of each.

I tried to search and go through the thread as much as I can and can't find anything.. if I wanted to rent mining power could I use nicehash? when I try to validate the pool, everything looks good but I get the following error: Pool difficulty too low (provided=10000, minimum=500000)... Error thanks ShitHash aka NiceHash uses a higher port.. So use 4334 instead of the default 3333 for ckpool when using shithash and you will be fine... Also you have www.miningrigrentals.com which is also a rental provider. I don't think it's possible, but if the block hits at 2.148Gh / s, isn't it great? It looks interesting, so I'll try mining for a while.
Stupidest shit I ever heard in my life, but your call.. waste of time imo.. So let me help you out, a 3090 farming ETH will make 7-8$/day, then you use those 7-8$ earned mining ETH and rent out ASIC miners which you use to mine bitcoin solo. For 7-8$ daily you can have roughly 40-45TH hashrate on solo which roughly translates to 1 in 33k odds per day, compared to mining btc with that card at the odds of 1 in 620M.. Common sense and logic my friend... don't be so lazy and do some research and understand the stuff you are attempting.. might get better results in life.. this is the proper move as I type I have a laptop mining on nice hash and every 25 days it makes enough for a rental. so I rent and point here or an other pool. to directly point a gpu to ckpool is silly. gave 8 merits keep posting and you will make rank What do you mine on nicehash with the laptop? It's the one and only correct way to go about it. Glad someone is on the ball and maximizing chances at every given opportunity. People don't realize the math. I may point a bit more gpus at nicehash and then point the earnings here or at another pool ck designed.

Can someone explain me what is the pool difficulty?
I understand what is the network difficulty, but the pool one got me off-guard.
From what I've read, this is what it means:
"Pool difficulty is how hard the job the pool gives you to finish in a time frame (set by pool)"
But I though the network difficulty defined the job for every miner (which is to pick a valid block).
What is a job then? I though that a job was basically the pool telling the miner: "here's a set of transactions, and here's your Nonce range [10000 to 99999], now check if you can hash below value X". Which I assume would have the same difficulty for every miner.
What am I missing here?

Network difficulty is the target that you have to find above in order to get a block. Pool difficulty does not really matter in solo mining, it more matters when doing pooled mining to be able to track the stats and do calculations to show how many shares your miners have submitted or shall I say work done...

Yes, but current network difficulty is 26,690,525,287,405 ( https://btc.com/stats/diff) not the number you wrote. In order to find a block you need to submit a share higher than that. The pool also requests you to submit shares higher than X but lower than the network diff, what you called a pool share. This is purely for information purposes* and load balancing. By submitting shares, although lower than the network diff and not good enough for a block, the pool can calculate your hashrate and show it to you, basically giving feedback and confirmation that you are mining. X is different for each miner depending on hashrate but is adjusted continually so that you submit 14 (or was it 18) shares a minute on average and in this way the server is not unnecessarirly burdened by submissions of every low share. If that wasn't done then the pool server would be flooded with diff 1 shares and probably smoking hot and dead by now *in other pools where the block is shared it is also necessary for accounting and payouts.

pool difficulty is like counting by 1000's to get to a million
ie 1+1+1 ... = 1,000,000 TAKES more room on the pools server
1000+1000+1000 ... = 1,000,000 less room on the pool server. either way you still need to get to a million
or in this case 26 trillion.
and that is only to show the shares put in not that you hit a block.
since getting a big share in 26 trillion tries does not have to happen

another newbie question to calculate so called "luck factor" to estimate progress in finding solo block, is it a matter of dividing current number of shares with network diff? e.g. at the moment of writing for the whole pool 4819841797984 / 26690525287405 = 18% ?

However keep in mind that the luck is calculated wrong on this pool...
Due to difficulty changes every 2 weeks and if you mine past a difficulty change point the accuracy of the luck is off..
It should have a running total, for every period of difficulty adjustment but instead it just uses shares / luck..

Yes,yes, I know how it is with changing diff. I mine some other coins... BTC is just for lottery / gambling IMHO it's even better to stick to current diff in calculations. What is a past is past, now I need to see what are my chances e.g. if I keep the same share rate. It doesn't make me optimistic, even with this huge luck CK has had recently. Even worse now -> it can be bad luck time now. And I don't want spend too much on gambling with NH
