Welp, I won't be helping to find them. There's some weird network sh!@t going down such that when I start my miners, they can communicate with the pool right up until the miner submits the first result. At that point the pool, every pool I've tried so far, kano.is, eligius, slushpool, and solo.ckpool.org, stops responding until the miner resets the connection to the pool. At that point the pool starts responding again. Sometimes the stars and bits align on an even word boundary in the network and the pool magically begins to accept shares. At that point all is well until the miner is stopped/restarted, at which time the cycle starts all over again. My Compac stick miner has been trying for the last two hours to mine at solo.ckpool.org with no luck. I've sent @kano a more detailed PM with a link to a wireshark packet capture so perhaps he can see what's happening on the pool. Cheers, - zed

No mining at the moment.

Well, after mining 24/7 for months on end at Kano.IS, I guess the party must stop. It looks like I will have to go back to OFF PEAK "Time of Use" electricity metering to squeeze some more life out of the S7's.... I'd then be back to making a profit... not much though... where as now, running 24/7, I'm far in the red. If I remember right, that 12 mining, 12 hr off, was really funky with the hashrate, or sharerate on Kano since it takes a couple days of solid mining for something - I cannot remember what- to calculate out.
Electricity in SE Wisconsin
Standard electric rate = 13.111 cents/kwh
On peak TOU = 19.86 cents/kwh
Off peak TOU = 8.964 cents/kwh
While looking at profitability after this halving event, I entered in the S9 12.8TH @ 1350W with just the standard electric rate.... ROI is 365 days !!!!! ( taking in consideration of electricity to run the miners ONLY.
OMG....
I'm beginning to think this halving was the knife that killed Bitcoin because people and farms are not going to buy new hardware if they cannot pay it off before the next version comes out. ( It was less than a year from when Bitmain started selling the S7 to the time they started selling the S9)
Even with free electricity, in one month of mining now, will be less than $500... I don't think I'll be able to find and office or an apartment with free electric for under $500 ... the end is nigh it appears.

This first block in the new era ... is taking too long...
We have to change chicken to something else this time.... proposing a juicy steak ... complete with mash potatoes, etc.
Let's have it.... steaks from around the globe for our BTC Mountain Goddess!

as i have alot of machines to manage and im getting ready to move the remainder of my hash power from f2pool and nicehash, to kano , i was wondering if there was any downside of running all the machines to the pool via stratum proxy found here https://github.com/Stratehm/stratum-proxy( ive used it before with other pools with decent results , but its been a long time since i have used it ) or am i better off leaving each machine as in individual worker

thanks ill check it out , im actually hoping to slim down my worker count a bunch by picking up more s7 and s9's , im still running 18 s3's and 10 s2's , its just hard to shut them down when they still turn a profit , so instead of replacing them with newer gen stuff id just be adding to my worker count for now

Still here, still mining. Think I need to buy 3 or 4 S9's next week to step up the game.

Looks like it's hardware problems all round. Thrown a PSU on flamer3 and corrupted firmware on the device. Re flashed the firmware and swapped out the PSU and running again. Did not want to play for a good hour.

So now we will be making 1/2 of whatever we made at our 5ND? Very astute. Yup...half. Keep in mind, though, that spot is now close to USD$650, whereas it was less than $300 a year ago. Pays to keep such things in perspective. Yes but what was difficulty of network back then? I'm sure we have went up 3x in diff since the price was 300$. Correct me if I'm wrong. But in last year home miners have taken a beating. This looks like bait and switch to me. Promise decentralization all the while knowing that can't happen in today's world. Just always remember don't invest more than you can afford to lose Best regards d57heinz

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
