KanoPool since 2014 🐈 - PPLNS and Solo 0.5% fee - Worldwide - 2436 blocks

[VirosaGITS]

kano is the proxy restricted to only Asic Tubes

...
However, as I mentioned before, I will be doing a 'ckpool' restart shortly.
That will happen in 5 minutes.

Done.

Tubes aren't getting work since exactly that time where you said "Done".

[thesmokingman]

Phew! Now lets get a few bright green ones  

t

So we get a valid block and almost 1ph leave the pool? Why would one pool hop here with a 5N? Hopping works well at slush, but why here. Don't get it.

Stay after a block and keep hash high to get the next block faster.

It's nothing new actually.
That's the strange thing about it.
Often in the past I've seen the hash rate drop after we find a block.
I've no idea why miners leave then.

My hashrate shows lower right now even though all of my miners indicate normal rates.  Slowly creeping back up to normal poolside though.

Edit:  looks like my miners switched to my backup pool.  Maybe that is why 1PH left after the block change, their miners switched to backup pools.

I think this is because of the ckpool restart Kano just performed. I received an alert as well from Zach's website for low hast rate, but my miners show their normal rate.

Since most of these alerts are driven by API provided by the site, when there is a restart it tends to kick out a few false alerts until the site catches back up.......please correct me if I'm wrong

Sorry about that.
I didn't check the nonce proxy after the restart.
It indeed gave up and stopped handing out work and didn't reconnect to the main ckpool.
I've reset it.

I'll make sure that doesn't happen in the future ... i.e. check the proxy and restart it also since it failed to reconnect.

What PPOC is referring to is something I've seen in the past quite a few times.
Shortly after we get a block, the hash rate drops.

Yep, helipotte's observations are separate and indeed to do with the ckpool restart.
Some % of miners will failover on a restart, a larger % will simply see a reconnect in cgminer ... if they happen to look at cgminer

ckpool also takes a while to average out the hash rate caused by failovers that then fail back very soon after.

[altcointalk14]

Use "ckpool -P" and you dont drop to failover after pool finds a block.

Use "ckpool -P" and you dont drop to failover after pool finds a block.

Explain?

[altcointalk14]

If for some reason your miners failover to backup pool after pool block found, try stratum thru stratum pasthru mode -P (not -p)

That is what I use and mine have never failed over to backup pool

This does not make any sense whatsoever. There is nothing in the cgminer, ckpool  or ckproxy code that would make you fail over after finding a block on the upstream pool.

Brought a friend over to the pool. And hopefully another very soon

The site stratum.kano.is has a white IP? 104.194.28.194? One of the miners not understand DNS.

Thank you to whoever sent me the BTC!
Much appreciated.

Exactly.

Code:

% host stratum.kano.is
stratum.kano.is has address 104.194.28.194

Nice... btw, off-topic... how did you get "ZACH" on your BTC address? Luck? Buy?
Noticed that Kano has "Kano" in his signature BTC address too!
While I know its purely random this BTC numbers -- how you stumble on to yours?

there is a website that allows for vanity btc addresses

at current pool hashrate abt 5 ph

we need to hit *roughly* 1.5 blocks per 24 hrs to break even ? if my lousy math is correct.

including upcoming diff change. +17.xx% pending

if below that then it would be losing BTC even compared to high 4% fee for PPS ?

yes, long term might earn more (according to past history) but currently short term (present) need the BTC quick at current prices to pay some bills & to trade trying to cover for bad luck or *if* lucky to a little more.

just saying, maybe no blocks makes me go cukcooooooooooooo

where the chicken ? someone gimme chicken ! (future)

i would suggest not using the online one, but the link flikflak posted is the source code..
you do have to patch it for newer amd cards.. nasty has a txt at about page 100 or so that has the patch..

it takes about 2-3 days to get a nice 6 letter vanity address.

With PPS 4.5% fee everyday earning is around 0.056 BTC (After FEES paid). Last three days earning on CK pool is 0.05010678 so i already lost 0.1 BTC.
With this rate even in long run how I can recover money with 9.5 THS.

Lot of ppl says Long term wit different calculation but no one showing comparison of past payment of CK pool vs PPS say (F2POOL)
