I have been at Kano since before the halving, but I wish Kano had been my first pool as I could have earned a lot more since I began mining. But I spent my first month or two on Bitminter. But I could see the writing on the wall, electricity vs. returns, and read so many positive Kano reviews that I had to change.

There was nothing "wrong" with Bitminter, there just wasn't enough hash to bring in blocks on a semi-regular basis. Additionally, it was much too easy to have "high" share shifts just fall off the board without being paid for anything. That was painful to watch and cemented my plan to leave there and move to Kano.

I haven't looked back since.

Time for that 11:20AM Friday BLOCK to roll in!  

EDIT: Our pool hash-rate has been high and steady over the last 24 hours. I like that!

...there just wasn't enough hash to bring in blocks on a semi-regular basis.

I have always made a point of supporting the smaller pools to help decentralize mining and this has been a problem I have seen repeatedly.  Before Kano even had a pool I saw a number of pools die the slow death of too little hashrate increase in relation to difficulty increase.  There comes a point where blocks are so far apart that difficulty increases come often enough to completely change your profitability calculus without any payout in between.  A viable pool really has to have a certain amount of blocks found between difficulty increases in order to realistically determine your profitability.  Otherwise it just turns into playing the lottery.  Which is fine if that's what you want.  But for me, when variance gets so extreme that it can be reasonably compared to buying scratchers, then I consider it time to move on.

It has been nice to see the kano pool hashrate increase over time.  So far there is no indication of that happening here.

I mined Slush for the first few days. I quickly learned this was the place to be. I've stayed here nearly all the time since March. Kano has by far the best pool available.

[firetreeactual]

Yup. 

[AriesIV10]

Yup.  

I did all of the due diligence in reading reviews, math and reviews.  I even put 1 miner with each of the pools to see the payout total after 1 month of operation, then made the best choice with CKPool.

hello,

it looks like I didn't get the payments since block 428700 (428678 is the last block payment I got)

Is that normal ?

it looks like my wallet is not in sync as it shows online I got 2 payments since ....

edit: restarting electrum fixed it.

[firetreeactual]

Yup.

My kind of approach...gather the data, follow the evidence...old habits die hard...

Well, my warranty-repaired S9 parts shipped out of China yesterday, and UPS tracking shows the package just left Osaka, Japan with an estimated delivery of Monday!
So, not sure if the parts were repaired or replaced - the ticket /order form is not very clear on that. It does have the word "Replace" on it.

Anyway, hopefully I'll get back a working S9 600mHz hash board and a functioning BB Black board. All will be gravy if that is the case - Just as long as they work!!

If I get it back in working order on Monday, it will be three weeks exactly from the day it shipped out from my UPS store. I will have no complaints. (Other than it cost a small fortune to send the parts back to China.)

As long as it works and other miners don't start dying!
Wish me luck!!!

I have 3 hash boards arriving today. I'm excited to get them up and going. I'm a little disappointed in Bitmain. I sent back a bad BB board that got lost on its way. I asked how much they would sell me a new board for, their response was they won't sell me one. So I will basically have a worthless miner, that came broken out of the box.

What?? So they won't take your order if you put one of these in the shopping cart? That's weird.

I'm glad to hear you're getting three boards back today! Sorry to hear that they "lost" a BB board. It really sucks they won't sell you a part that they no doubt have in stock.

I shipped my bad BB board and the bad hash board together in the same box. I thought about shipping them separately, but decided that it would be best to have as few possible points of failure in the shipping chain.

You "may" be able to get an S9 BB board from Colorado in a few months. I would contact them, if you haven't already. Until then, yeah, I guess you're screwed.
