Yo, just joined up!
Good luck to us all!
Any suggestions for setting Difficulties? I have 2 ASIC Miners and also is it recommended to make separate worker names for them
Difficulty info below, as for worker names, its up to you, it helps if you want to monitor individual miners performance/reliability:
Diff makes no diff (erence).
To understand that in maths terms: if you increase the Diff, you get fewer stales, but each with higher difficulty.
The overall effect, the same total stale diff
The reverse of course is also true, lower Diff means more stales but each with lower difficulty.
The long term effect is almost linear so you wont gain or lose by doing it.
The non-linear effect is bitcoin difficulty changes, but when compared to the time frame of shares, that has almost zero effect.
Good call Biffa, it's always best to let the pool set the work diff on miners...on this pool at least. |

I really hope that is the case!  . I was starting to think about selling my miners and cleaning up my resume!  |

I just purchased two power supplies from bitmain and they accepted bitcoin. Still waiting on Canaan to loosen up on their miner sales to allow single sales. |

The Pallet option gets you a power supply as well as a miner. I have wondered if you could run three 741's on two power supplies of the 1600 watt variety. The pallet costs $49K.
1600w is 1600w whether at 110 or 220. Since each unit uses ~1150w, that's one per psu.  M I was curious if it might be possible to throttle down a A741 so it uses a bit less power without seriously affecting its hash rate. If you could gets its power consumption down to around 1050 watts then three of them would use 3150 watts which would be handled by two power supplies supplying 3200 watts. Just wondering if anyone has tried it. |

Can anyone tell me what's going on here? I've received 3 payments from the pool for the past few blocks (I understand they are small because I'm not yet past the 5Nd), but this morning I see two sent tranasctions from my address for the exact same amounts of the previous 2 payments. https://www.blocktrail.com/BTC/address/1PxV6HNvqHAydTo8wpyZk1uF2KGSSsMAPA/transactionsI've set Kano to payout to my Coinbase wallet and here's the strange thing, Coinbase still shows the full amount in the wallet and no sent transactions. Can anyone explain to me what's going on here? I'm confused. Once the BTC gets to your wallet, it's only whoever controls your wallet that can move the BTC somewhere else. If Coinbase controls your wallet (not you) they can move the coins around as they please, I guess. |

I have had coinbase pluck my btc out of my account as it was confirming recently.
Twice the final deposit was not recorded on the GUI, had to poke them.
Just seems really creepy to have a deposit confirming while the same funds were confirming on the way out without my authorization

For those about to block we salute you! AC->BTC

Oh, that's probably Coinbase internally moving them based on their own internal needs. But Coinbase keeps track of my account totals so I still have the same amount internally with their system. Got it. I didn't even think about how they'd use the wallets internally like that. Thanks for the reply and making me realize what was happening. Even if they ever used your coins for something they would never let you know about it and I find it really hard to believe that they sent your coins somewhere and actually told you about it! Lol |

Hello Kano-san!
I was wondering what the current statistics were like for block finding in hardware percents.
Are the S9 batch1 still doing worse than others?

I know this topic does not belong here but I was wandering if you guys can help me out .
I am getting my first 20 d3 miners by Monday and wanted to set up at least 2 pools. I tried researching it an the only one found alive was suprnova.cc. however, I am unable to register on their site since their captcha does not work.
