This is amazing to see the share numbers on ckpool, just like my old miners have found another gear or something

Hi all, just a heads up that the testnet pool will be offline for a few hours whilst the host the vps runs on has its kernel upgraded. The solo pool will be unaffected, and the testnet pool is a not-for-profit service so I don't think anyone will really mind. If it was critical I'd try and minimise the downtime.

Back online. Turned out to only be a few minutes. Solo pool was not affected.

I noticed on my miner that work was interrupted and message from pool 0: Authorised, welcome to solo.ckpool.org....
But since that time, there are no shares showing up just requested work updates and new block detection.

Edit:  I noticed stratum diff updated to 1.02k, so I think that's the reason.  Just pulled a 4.21k share.  Working as intended!! Thanks.

What hashrate are you running? When you first connect or reconnect it always resets your diff to 1024. If your hashrate is very low it can take ages before you find a share and the pool recognises your hashrate and lowers the diff for you.

back in for some action

c'mon few more blocks @ ckpool solo !

[clarkey2013]

will be firing up my block eurpter soon with my pi pointing here soon

Althought worthless,  since the server is on its mining with its 2 CPUs and CPU miner.
In the first days using the pool I saw it was hashing but did not get a YAYs thats common with
cpu miner when in other pools.

So today it started also making some YAYs actually running for less than an hour and have already 3
when other days not even one.
How does this translated???

LOL+Hi Hi

Wishfull thinking 3 blocks in a row!!!


LOL+Hi Hi

LOL... no, you didn't find 3 blocks, you got 3 accepted shares.  ckpool uses variable difficulty that starts at 1024 and adjusts according to the hash rate of your miners.  Since you're CPU mining (dear lord in heaven what are you thinking???), it just happened to take that long to find a difficulty 1024 share.  Today you got lucky and found a share at least 1024 difficulty, so likely the pool has now adjusted the difficulty to match your abysmal hashing speed from the CPU.

Seriously... what are you thinking?  Do you just not like your server, or are you doing some kind of extended CPU burn in testing?  Nothing good can come of CPU mining BTC.  Of course, now that I've written this, that CPU will probably be the next block finder on the pool...

Hi I know but have not noticed any problems with the server its just a file server that we store our data have backups daily and 5 disks inside it so will not hurt anything its an old IBM blade  with 2 CPU
I also know it will not find a  block but since its open we participate on the network support this pool.

Oh have to add I run a USB antminer also in this pool

So its the amazing power or 2 Ghs !!!
finding the next block its a matter of luck like playing the lotto
2Ghs makes 0,35 $ each month so it for fun only

nobody found a block since 21 September?
is there any place beside blockchain to see pool stats?

Pretty much. It's not like we're going to find many blocks averaging 40TH. It also makes zero difference to each individual miner what the overall hashrate of the pool is. The only stats are those linked on the front page and doesn't include blocks since they all show up in blockchain. The pool is intentionally lean and no fuss and accordingly very low fee. Just raw mining at its best.

I've seen this a few times today.  And then it needs to work the diff down before I start seeing shares. Can you tell if this is server side or client?

I checked the logs and it's only your one worker that is disconnecting, with no other clients doing it at the same time so I suspect it's client side.

yeah 40 th will find a block once every 40 days. with current  diff

40TH ... will currently average one every 43 days after you find a few hundred or so.
You can expect anywhere from 1 to 344 days.
More than 430 days would be quite rare.

... of course as diff rises so does the expected time to find one ...

Updated the S4 with your release today and pointed it at the solo pool.  I'm seeing an average of about 1.8t with it.  Does that sound about right?  Isn't it amazing we are up to a point where 200gh/s can be within 10% tolerance?

Host provider seems to be having intermittent networking issues again, sorry - last time this happened one of the other servers on their subnet was experiencing a DDoS. Put in a support ticket but there's not much I can do about it at this time. If the pool was bigger I could probably justify moving to a more expensive provider with better connectivity guarantees.
