I think we all wish we started in the beginning...wouldn't that have been a hoot

I started in 2011.  I which I hadn't spent 50 BTC on Jalapeno and Block Erupters!

Please, I have a question: What the difference between the Shares and Avg Share??

Thanks for attention.

EDIT: Sorry for my noobest question.

Actually, I did. Then came Mt. Gox.

It's been a helluva ride.

[luxMiner]

...
Yeah the only catch here is variance.
It's not terribly bad, but of course a lot more variance than the larger pools.

I'm still yet to understand why the 2 top miners left though.
THeir issue was given as variance, but that's a bit of a lame excuse since the average has been over 100% for a while.
Yeah it went under 100% short term but long term it's still over 100%

I guess they can't handle getting well over 100% PPS some months (162%, 138%, 133%) but only 78% PPS some other times
... it's called planning ahead

Edit: FYI 100% PPS over 77.94% is of course only 128.30%

wouldn't the fact that fees are shared tip the scales easily?

Yeah, and at the moment there's also no fees at all til 2018
Then it's back to the lowest fees for all pools worth mining on, of 0.9%

k, i suppose i'm sold... will reconfigure my machines tonight...... 140TH for now, another 140TH on their way....
thanks for your thoughts.

And which one is calculated to know how much BTC I am generating per hour?

If we all kept our bitcoin and did "nothing with it" we wouldn't be were we are at the moment.

Never forget that.

Ja. To-date stats say I've earned BTC100.85342753 here A very tidy sum right now if most had not been spent on constant upgrade/expansion of the farm to my current >250THs.

Nonetheless since I've stopped growing the past few months...

LOL, right! If I had more electrical I'd probably grow a bit more myself but it'll require a major electrical upgrade to get more power in my house or even a shed with it's own dedicated power and cooling. I have been thinking of doing that as well.

Yup. No question.

[voodooman]

is there any german miner active here?

I'm still searchin for a serious seller in germany for antminer or avalons.
I bought one s9 over
antminerdistribution.eu
which worked really smooth earlier in this year for about 1700€.

but actually it looks like nobody is selling any serious mining hardware in germany.

Antminer that costs 3000€ and much more is a freakin high price.
and these are mostly just pre-order stuff.

HELP!!!

You just missed out in the Avalon 741 sales that cryptouniverse had. They are the official Canaan distributor in Europe.

Here is a link to their thread
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2445506.0

Thank you very much!

After I read your posting this morning I registered at cryptouniverse instantly and ordered THE LAST 2 Avalon 741 Sets. 
After my order they were sold out ;-)

It wasn't really cheap but I think with invoice and warranty and paid by paypal it was a reliable order.

Normaly I read all postings here...sometimes more sometimes less attentive.
Must have missed a posting about cryptouniverse.

So for now I'm waiting for these 2 miners...hopefully they'll arrive before christmas :-)

Cheers and MINE ON!!!

It's nice to see the pool back @24PH+

Does anyone know where I can get some help paying out dust payments? I know they are not automatically sent out but the dust payments I had a while ago are now worth 26 dollars in my currency! Obviously I want to get my hands on them. Is there some way I can get cashed out for these?

Kano keeps saying that one day he will get to that.   There is a lot of work represented in those payments.  Would be a nice way to spread some Holiday cheer.

Hello All,
Been buried reading and reading more trying to get up to speed with everything... Started at slushpool for a week and a half and did well with my s9. Investigated more and found you guys! I love the fact that everything is so transparent. A few questions obviously.. lol

1. hypothetically if everyone ran at 100% would most pools payout the same using PPLNS method adding tx and minus the pool fee?

2. frequency of blocks, having a lower hash rate then the larger pools we don't have the frequency of block success....but is that made up because of less hashing power to pay? ie more to spread around to fewer folks?

3. while reading, I came across pinging where our miners are pointed. I am pointed at "stratum+tcp://stratum.kano.is:3333" How would I ping this? Also, if it is high, is it worth changing to a lower rate. For example I pinged kano.is and it was burtal 145ns, then pinged the ny one(sorry cant remember) and it came back 39ns (worth a change?) If it is what would be the new address.

I have more questions but I don't want to abuse my new status.. lol

Thanks in advance to any help and answers.

My dust here was worth about $2 when I stopped mining, it is now worth over $100.  I'm looking forward to the "accounting code" getting put in.  Hopefully my dust will be worth $1000 then.

Got to command prompt and type ping nya.kano.is for an example. I think the rest is self explanatory. Here is what I get for NYA, but you should ping all the servers and use the top fastest 3 pings when setting up your miners. They say in life, "timing" is everything. Based on my location my fastest 3 are NYA, US then NL but based upon where you live it can be different.  

Pinging nya.kano.is [104.207.132.42] with 32 bytes of data:
Reply from 104.207.132.42: bytes=32 time=16ms TTL=54
Reply from 104.207.132.42: bytes=32 time=15ms TTL=54
Reply from 104.207.132.42: bytes=32 time=16ms TTL=54
Reply from 104.207.132.42: bytes=32 time=15ms TTL=54

Ping statistics for 104.207.132.42:
    Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss),
Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
    Minimum = 15ms, Maximum = 16ms, Average = 15ms

So as displayed for me the fastest route to get to the work is with the NYA server. 15ms is fast for a round trip packet.

Hope this helps answer question 3.

Hi,


1. can i use just the bitcoin address in the Worker: field?

In the example format is
Worker:            1KanoiBupPiZfkwqB7rfLXAzPnoTshAVmb.worker  

can i just use bitcoin address without the .worker like this
Worker:           1KanoiBupPiZfkwqB7rfLXAzPnoTshAVmb

2. How does the payout work? I did not understand the 5Nd.

3. Is this address correct ? stratum+tcp://nya.kano.is:3333 or nya+tcp://nya.kano.is:3333?

Thanks all

stratum+tcp://nya.kano.is:3333 is the correct format

[HagssFIN]

Yeah, you need to read this to understand what the stratum means

Stratum mining protocol
https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Stratum_mining_protocol


You can mine by using your btc wallet address without the worker extension, but if you have few miners, it is pretty handy to name those with different worker names. Like for example yourwalletaddress.AntminerS9one

[Dr Octagon]

Kano seems pretty popular here, may as well add my 27T/H to it.

Can I add L3+'s though?

Thanks

No.

Don't you know that L3+ is not a Bitcoin miner, but a Scrypt-algorithm cryptocurrency (like Litecoin for example) ASIC miner ? 

It is important to know what you are doing when you are in the mining business.
