My home computer is on the fritz, so for the first time since I started mining in 2014 I don't have any miners plugging away at hash values.  Hope to be back up and running soon. |

My home computer is on the fritz, so for the first time since I started mining in 2014 I don't have any miners plugging away at hash values. Hope to be back up and running soon. I had 100% of my miners turned off for the better part of year. I know how it feels. For now, I am relegated to mining with USB miners for S&Gs. Such is life. Good luck getting everything up and running again! |

Today marks 7 years since the launch of Bitminter. Thank you to all who mine and mined with Bitminter over the years.
I missed this the other day. Congratulations on reaching that landmark. I haven't mined for many years but I'll always remember the excellent support and help you always offered. Thanks and good luck for the next 7 years. |

Just checking in! Got 2 s9's running with you guys atm, hoping to get my 741 running here in the next couple days as well. Going to make it's exhaust vent either tonight or tomorrow, and then i'll have 38-40 th's running here. Most I've ever ran at once.  Happy Mining! |

Could you try it with a different browser or with plugins disabled? the 1 to 50 list is blank and the my stats area is asking me to log-in, total computational power gauge shows zero Other areas of the page shows blank or zero also. Top header shows the normal pool hashrate and shows that I am log'd in. Mia Culpa
got it by resetting my browser. |

Hopefully a few more greens like that to balance out past bad luck! If a really bad red pops up again, could be best part of a year to solve it given current hash rate :-( |

what is the advantage of setting the minimum difficulty?

You probably don't need it. The server will adjust the difficulty to suit your ASIC miner. If your ASIC miner isn't able to function properly because the work it is getting is too low difficulty at the beginning when it connects, then you can set a higher minimum as a work around. This should not happen to anyone, and you should let me know if it does. If your internet connection has extremely low bandwidth then you may want to set a high difficulty to reduce data traffic to an absolute minimum. This may be useful if anyone is still connecting with an ancient 56K modem (as used in the 90s) somewhere in the world. Not sure if this actually happens in real life. Or maybe you are renting miners and the rental service requires an extremely high difficulty. Setting the necessary minimum should work. In some cases I may also be able to add logic to automatically detect the rentral service and set the proper difficulty automatically. |

If you have any BCH (bitcoin cash) in your Bitminter account, please cash it out as soon as possible. We are not supporting the upcoming BCH forks. I don't follow BCH closely, but from what I can tell, this is the situation: On november 15th, Bitcoin Stash will fork from BCH. On the same day there is a BCH hardfork. It looks like everyone except bstash support this hardfork. However, it appears that Bitcoin ABC and Bitcoin SV have different ideas for the future of BCH. This may cause more forks. There may also be other forks I'm not aware of. So collect your BCH today, and check https://bstash.org/ for more information on bstash. |

Updated 2 x S9's today with bitmains new asicboost firmware... have been testing asicboost on bitminter for a few hours now with no issues.. packet capture and wireshark show its working.. slight decrease in hash power, 14.01 Th to 13.80... I have not yet measured power to see what exactly the decrease in power usage is yet. the miners seem to be running about 8C cooler than ones with original firmware so im guessing that is a good sign its saving power. you guys may not know this but doc added the asicboost code to the pool back in April, just had to wait all this time to test it Great Job Doc! It works! Fefox |

Thanks for testing! Yeah, it is exactly 6 months ago today that Bitminter got asicboost support. So far only a few people with Dragonmint miners have been able to use it. I guess we will see a lot more asicboost mining now.
