65 degrees here in NY State.  We *never* hit these temps.  Normally where I am we have feet of snow at this point and temps closer to 0 than 100.

It's an odd year so far!!

@ck since you brought up block size and BIP100 and I've been gone from the thread a while (months) can you summarize if/when/how you intend to support block size changes? Obviously I mean the over 1mb changes. I ask because it seems miners will get the "vote" on what to support (but really that means the pool owners).

Sorry if you have discussed before but I read back 10 or so pages and didn't see anything.

My little small xmas wish for tonight? 2 Blocks please 
Lets do it all together and happy xmas to everybody 

[wolfen]

At least my miners are in a datacenter now.
If I still had them at home I would be hating life.
Need COLD weather to play at home.

Need to break out the avocado I believe.

Anyway, I put up the limit to 988,888 yesterday (and edited the first post)

Nothing has changed since the BIP100 vote was added to our (and other) pool coinbase sigs, other than gazik showing that BIP100 was a scam by the bitcoin core devs.
The bitcoin core devs seem to think that they control bitcoin, and that it isn't a peer 2 peer currency.
There are ways to prove them wrong, when you have a very large % of the mining network showing agreement for a change that the devs want to flex their imaginary power and push their agenda and bury it rather than proceeding with the obvious agreement of the majority of bitcoin mining.
The core devs want side chains and are pushing that since that is in their personal financial interest.

There is no need to force anything, there is a need to put in place BIP100 and allow the network vote, to accept or deny it, to occur.

I don't like the idea of block sizes growing at an exponential pre-determined rate, determined by one person.
Over 99% of the mining network has agreed to that and thrown out BIP101

Yes, in general, any block voting will effectively mean that pools will decide the vote, but the simple issue there is that if people care about bitcoin and what they want, they can vote by going to a pool that does what they want.

I also think that what I've done with regards to SPV is a point to show how bitcoin can work.
1 person can't make a change, but 1 person can inform others and make it well known what is going on and effect a change that way.

... and a payout due in a few blocks

[borachinua]

Got another S7 today and got it running.  I'm now at 13 TH.

2 S7s, 2 S5s and a lonely S3 just chugging along.

Payout 389909 sent

and confirmed

[VRobb]

Anybody notice that over just the last 7 days the pool's total hash has gone up 20%??!!  That's FRAZY!

So, that being said, time to crack a block!
And thanks to Kano for the latest, yummy BTC payout.  num num nummy!

Good summary. I guess my personal concern with BIP100 that there is no code behind it (is there?). I mean I guess it'll all come to a head soon if we keep seeing full blocks. And I guess the lack of code is what you mean by BIP100 being a scam.  Basically a red herring for people to spin their wheels on gathering support behind with no real intention of it going any further. I suppose anyone could just write some BIP100-enabling code and release a fork that all these publicly supportive folks could move on to.

like to see the 6PH title, hope to see another digit in front & back too.

well done.

Q: Installed the CKPool Kano app...entered my API but keep getting invalid BTC address notice. Any ideals? Checked everthing closely and re-installed...still same notice...ugh! Help

You'll have to ask whoever wrote the app.

However, there are no API stats for BTC address miners, only the worker/user stats as shown on the https://kano.is/ front page.
So the app would have to support that for BTC address miners.

If you have configured the API in a normal account, then the BTC address has nothing to do with accessing it.

Merry Christmas everyone!

Since mining with kano.is, I have decided in investing 6 more s7s and with my current 4 x S7s I am seeing the benefits and I think I am really happy here.

I have newbie question and would like to confirm my logic...

Let's say, I have 10 x S7 now mining x BTCs per period of time

Come 07-19-2016 - BTC reward block halving...

Would I see only 50% of x BTC per period of time?

To get back the 100% x BTC per period of time, would I then need 2 x (10 x S7) = 20 x S7s?

Why I am asking is a fellow miner was comparing maximum pool payout between kano.is and the rest, and advised me to not to put all my S7s "in one basket" because his logic was "every miner should try to get maximum BTC payout from now to July 19th, 2016" before its not worth mining anymore (ie. rewards are less than expense, electricity etc). He also advised me not to chase that dream of getting more s7s after July 19th because the difficulty level at that stage will be too high.

Comments?

I am sorry if I am posting an awkward question here, but I would like to hear expert views from the forum.

Merry Christmas to all, wishing a proper ham and alcohol filled Christmas as I happened to had, sorry for typos, hope we get some blocks even though main meat was ham and not chicken.. Thinking ham might provide double output of the chicken

Damn wish I had a few of those S7 coming my way / arrived already, but no such luck.. Maybe someday lol

May the force of Santa be with you and your hashes !! Merry Christmas to all souls rich and poor (especially the poor(including myself)).
 

[zahzin]

Merry Christmas everyone!

Same to you mate !

Let's say, I have 10 x S7 now mining x BTCs per period of time

Someone else like Kano might have a proper scientific answer, but if you already ordered 10xS7 antminers, either you have done your math or you are playing on pure luck..

Whichever way, your choice is already made up, only possibility in my view is to see how it plays out... I would point all that juice hash at Kanos pool and keep my thumbs crossed (all the good that will do heh)

All the best and merry xmas, don't take me too harshly..
