KanoPool since 2014 🐈 - PPLNS and Solo 0.5% fee - Worldwide - 2438 blocks

Biggest diff jump since last Feb.  

the largest amount of hash ever added in one jump  just about 400ph

that is about 32000 s9's  around 42 million in gear.

I'd guess some of that is older gear being brought back on-line due to coin price increase. I know that I'm responsible for ~9TH of additional S7 hash since I've been running a couple S7's for about 8 hours or more a day since around Christmas.

Note that I've been working on a private git version of CKDB for a while now.
The last 2 CKDB updates were done from that.

The public git is easily able to support a 100PH pool on reasonable hardware.
I'm working on making CKDB support distributed pools, and that's certainly not necessary to use CKDB in general
Also, new updates I'm working on involve trying to track withholding better than the current high level statistical analysis I do, so I'd prefer that information not to be public.

I've been booted off the ckpool project by the project owner so I wont (and can't) put any more changes in the public git anyway

Edit. Those that use iPhone dl zeroblock it can be monitored easily from there. Gives a nice chart and price updates aswell. Along with that it shows the hashrate and block times for the last 24 hours.

That's a nice little app - thanks for the tip.

WOW!!!  That leaves me to think that the 1.5 a day was just a dream!

Estimated Next Difficulty:449,779,790,167 (+14.46%) - It seems this trend ((we need a lot of luck to find blocks!

MINE ON

Perhaps it's me and I need to apologies to you guys.

I've been mining on the pool since Thursday and we've only found 2 blocks, prior to me pointing my miners at the pool it looked like things were travelling along quite nicely.

Lulz - no.
Luck is luck - nothing anyone can do about it

As I've mentioned before, the only thing that can affect it, that we wont all see, is block withholding.
All other blocks (or failed blocks) will show up on the blocks page.

Luck goes up and down, but as long as it doesn't stay down for extended periods of time (like what happened in December), there's nothing to worry about.

Seems like -ck's on a drunken rampage
He's removed me from cgminer also.

Ah well, he's being hypocritical, but not much I can do about that.
He has 2 private gits containing unreleased code for ckpool, one for his solo pool, and one for that MLM scam pool BitClub run by a Bitmain employee (who pays for most of his ckpool development)
Me having a private git of ckpool was his stated reason for taking away my access - but now also cgminer

Meanwhile - good to see avalon putting more power on the pool after discussing this with me.

Trouble in paradise?

[IconFirm]

He has 2 private gits containing unreleased code for ckpool, one for his solo pool, and one for that MLM scam pool BitClub run by a Bitmain employee.....

Is it true that -ck is working with this scam? If so, I'm both very surprised & very disappointed.

I sincerely hope you both can overcome your differences & renew your long standing partnership/friendship as you have both been a rock in the cryptosphere for such a long time.....

Yep.

But even I've done 2 changes (long ago) to ckdb that I got BTC from them - since they use my CKDB code also.
One was adding 2FA (which I wanted also) and another was giving them a copy of the higher level luck reports I'd already written.

Though in both cases they were things I wanted or had already done
They've asked me to do other things but I've rejected them.
Though of course if anyone (including them) found bugs in CKDB I'd fix them (... if I caused them)

The new 'remote' node code -ck added recently was paid for by them - but it breaks the CKDB payouts - so I wont use it.

I sincerely hope you both can overcome your differences & renew your long standing partnership/friendship as you have both been a rock in the cryptosphere for such a long time.....

Not likely.

He cancelled my access to the ckpool git that has more code in it by me than by him.
He cancelled my write access to cgminer.
He removed my op privs in the #ckpool channel and #cgminer channel - so I've left them and started #kano.is for the pool support, as per my sig.
He actually doesn't use CKDB at all and broke it recently (then fixed it after it crashed for at least 2 people) coz he doesn't test his changes that affect CKDB on CKDB - coz he doesn't use it and has always disliked CKDB.

I think it was an ego trip coz I said I had the most computer experience in the channel
I've worked for a number of large companies and only done computer work my entire life - for more than 32 working years and before - in many varied types of computing environments (and of course I have a computer science degree - from what was the best university in the country to get a computer science degree at the time, when I got it)

To be blunt, it's no real change to the pool since last August. He's not done much at all for the pool for a while now (other than cause problems) and ignored some of the requests I've made before that. His last version of changes for bitcoind is twice as slow as before and he fobbed off my initial question about it.
I'm still using last August version of the ckpool side of the pool due to problems since then and untested code in the public git on some occasions.

I was wondering what had happened between you two, after he posted saying he had nothing to do with kano.is pool anymore.

Differences of opinion?

*EDIT* and your above post answers this     Appreciate the transparency and explanation

Perhaps it's me and I need to apologies to you guys.

I've been mining on the pool since Thursday and we've only found 2 blocks, prior to me pointing my miners at the pool it looked like things were travelling along quite nicely.

I am sooo glad you are taking the blame.

I started Tuesday and I thought I was the reason why 

Even though I (we) are off to a slow start, from what I can tell and read, I am glad I chose this pool.

I am also going to double my Th/s in a about 2 days, when my 2nd R4 arrives..now I am a double sized small home (newbie) miner!

It's all good guys!  Hopefully we'll be back on track soon.  Although I'm starting to have my doubts after the diff jump!  .  Let's hope that when your second R4 arrives it brings us back some green luck!

Don't you just hate it when someone abuses their abilities like that. Pot, meet Kettle 

[firetreeactual]

FWIW...both of these guys are geniuses, and both are strong personalities (goes with the territory...trust me). I've followed both for some time. I've seen this coming for a while.

None of us has any business calling Kano, or Con, or any other miner anything but brother (or sister...I'm not the only woman miner on this pool, btw...). Every damn one of us has baggage...some more than others, some handle it differently than others. Let it go.

We all owe both of them for their contributions over the years.

Mine on.

Kano -  who actually runs CKPool at the moment?  You said CK has some CKPool code that is not released yet, so if he in charge of the pool and releases stuff or are you?  I am new, can you give me some back ground?

I've run this pool myself since I started it.
I've decided what code runs on the pool.
-ck has had minimal access to the pool on and off for 2 years (and no more)

He owns the CKPool public git - which effectively means nothing for the pool any more, since anyone can read (and fork) the public git.
I have my own private git I created a few weeks ago which I use for the pool.

No, my first reply to you (that is still there) explained in one line why your math comments were wrong.
I assumed you were is some way knowledgeable of the subject so my first reply was brief in pointing out why you were wrong.

You continuously posted incorrect posts about it, even after I told you to stop - and I guess you didn't bother to read what the forum states about that in the PM you get when I delete a post.
I even ended up writing a no-brain-required explanation - and you still kept posting, so I kept deleting.

If you can't get over the fact you were wrong and keep doing these posts about it, this being the second one since then, then I'll go back to deleting all your posts - they are annoying and no one wants to read them.

As Donald would say : "sad"  A poor attempt to be funny on my part rather then face the fact it really is sad.


I mined with ck and kano for years this disturbs me quite a bit  to see the "team" split

and to see someone gloat over a tragic break up. Well like I said C. Genie is a world class troll

The kano and to con sorry this happened here is to better days for us all.
