Yeah blocks happen

[kano]

Diff has gone up 4 times it's value in 12 months ~54G to ~213G

BTC $price has gone from around $300 to around $650 (though it dipped down to about $220 11 months ago)

S7 was released 1 year ago 4.8THs, S9 almost 1 month ago, 14THs, 3 times faster.
Bitmain miner price? NFI

Yes that true also i can see in last 20 hours you have not found any block ..not sure what because before having ever day you get atleast one block ..so many minner stop hashing your poll as as i can see in otehr poll many people stop 

No idea what you are talking about.
The pool hash rate hasn't changed much in the last 4 days. It's over 40PHs

20 hours means nothing at all.
Blocks are measured in difficulty work done, not time.

As for blocks, well yep simple statistics says that to get 3 blocks with an average of 262.8% is:
http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=CDF%5BErlangDistribution%5B3%2C+3%5D%2C++2.628%5D
is 0.984945 so expected to happen about once every 200 blocks.
So over on whatever your favourite pool is, if it's 5 times the size of kano.is, it will happen, on average, once every 10 days.

Luckily, luck here has be WAY better than that

if i run around 100 ths for around 3-4 hours will i get any btc or not ?? if so how much approx ..as i can see you poll has very good luck and less ph as compare to otehr pool so if i get more bitcoin here if i mine here for 3-4 hours as per your payment system or not

Yay,

Pointless question.

You're talking about short term rentals.
That's simply random gambling on any non-PPS pool, and a loss on any PPS pool.

With 4PH..... my 250TH solo didn't even come close

this is a 5n pool  3-4 hour mining  is the riskiest way to mine here.

you could whale or get zero.

I suggest the following  for you  if it is hard gear  set it here for 10 days in a row.

If you only rent and do nothing else rent 10th and set it here for 10 days.

"RED", the new color of "Halving"

[coinits]

Just turned my S5's off.  I don't think I will be running them any more if they will not profit.

I thought I would see a more drastic cut in network wide hash rate with the halving.  Must be because of the weekend.

I don't know why everyone is celebrating the halving.

I did the same but the old beasts made me profit.

Block 420143

[wmabern]

I've decided to only run my three S7's at night so I can run them at full speed. I will keep the S9 running 24/7. I'm thinking I will shut down the S7's around 10:30-11:00 AM when it starts getting hot and start them back up around 10:00PM.

I'm doing this for heat and mainly to save some $$ on electricity. With the halving and the BTC price drop, I'm barely making any profit running all four miners 24/7. When / if price increases above 675-700, I'll start them back up for 24/7 mining.

I know that will screw up my 5ND on Kano.

Would it be better, in anyone's opinion, to just down-clock the S7's to something like 500-600MHZ and continue to run them day and night?
I know the latter would be better for my 5ND, but would it save any measureable amount of electricity over all? Be better for block income?

I'm just wondering what the pool members thoughts are on this.

Thanks for any input.

Let's get back to a GREEN stats page!  

EDIT: Additionally, there is no price difference for me between day and night. It's all the same price.

EDIT2: I should also add that if the difficulty drops any substantial amount after the next diff change, I MAY go back to all miners 24/7.

Looks like we had a restart.
I'm showing all ? on the web site.

I'm assuming I'm not alone?

The site says:

Database is reloading, mining is all OK

But my S9 has re-pointed at a backup pool.

All of my hardware has failed over to the the backup pool...

Same here. I'm mining solo right now. Perhaps I'll get lucky! LOL

[xxcsu]

"Database is reloading, mining is all OK"
...not really

same here .. all of my miners , s7's and s9's are failed over to the secondary(backup) pool

[KyrosKrane]

My software is showing the pool went down about 14 minutes before this post.

[tlhIlwI]

All of my hardware had failed over to solo mining and my rentals are showing as dead too.

My behavioral scientist/ex-bank cop self is just now waking up...0600 here...and having a ball reading all the gloom & doom stuff from some folks. As I've said before...this is not an occupation...or hobby...for the faint of heart.

My point regarding last year's spot and yesterday's halving is this: it's based on hard numbers, and the diff% is not what I'm looking at. It's not relevant to my view. I'm a "small home miner" in essence, although I've farmed out three S7s to Labrador, where they will still make a profit. I've been involved in this for years. I think there are a number of us in that position. We don't all see it the same, though, for various reasons. Some of us were "there" for the last halving...I can remember a good deal of talk in the same doom & gloom category then. Seems to have worked out a bit better than apocalypse, though.

Bottom line is that, after my first stint that ended in Mt. Gox, I started over with a high-end GPU; promptly moved up to a used S2; then began turning over revenue, plus a little extra fiat cash, into used S3s until I had six plus the S2. Then picked up one S7, then two more new. After blowing the 30A mains at my place a couple of times (I'd been misled on how much service came into my flat), and after doing a bit of research, I shipped off the S7s to Labrador, and retired the S2 as nowhere to cohost it that had free power (as I do). After all that, I'm not going anywhere. I live on partial VA disability and a small retirement check. I can't afford...at all...to gamble with resources.

I knew up front in sending the units to Labrador that they would still be profitable after the halving...not so much, obviously, in terms of BTC, but quite reasonable in terms of fiat cash. Again...my focus is on long-term investment, not cash flow. By the time of the next halving, I hope to have accumulated enough BTC to take care of any major catastrophic financial events that might come my way without being wiped out...again.

Sorry for the long tome...only on my first cup of coffee. I'm happy to see a couple of "new" blocks on the queue, and again, I really do appreciate all the interchange here. I also appreciate your level of civility, and the acceptance I enjoy. Ain't many places left on the planet where that is the norm. We've got a few "interesting" folks here on the board...but they're the salt and pepper of the mix. Keeps it from getting too awful serious.

I've had to wait for the halving, and another few days to see that things go as expected. So far, so good...and it's time to move the little private co-op of disabled and low-income folks here into reality. We've been working on the plan for it since February, and the concept is proven feasible now. I'll post about it on a separate thread in a couple of days. A key factor in it has been the performance and integrity of this pool.

Mahalo nui loa no ke aloha (heartfelt thanks for the aloha...good energy).



Anyway...the old "keep calm, and mine on" still holds.  

EDIT: Took a while to type that...just saw the notes on status...and my S3s are all failed over to solo as well. Interesting new note on the site with the "Database reloading," but mining is definitely not OK. Shows kano.is dead for about 19 min (presently 0457 UTC here).
