Alright friends...new problem for me....went out to shut down my 6 741s as I was going to move them around to get ready for a couple L3's coming in. When I turned powered them back on, one of them went through the normal power up cycle, looking at the white lite, turns yellow, then instead turning blue ..I got a red light. On the sides where you normally get the 4 green lights (two on each side), I only got 2 green on the right side, the left side was not lit up at all. So .... did I lose the boards on that side...?? I power cycled several times, and still no change....I've had these about a month now..... Check the PCIe connectors - that's usually the problem - not enough getting through due to a connection problem. The connections on the boards, where you plug them in, can get a bit touchy if you move them around or unplug/plug them back in. Thanks Kano....actually I never touched this particular unit, so not sure why....I coulda sworn I kinda heard a pop, and when I looked at the back is when I noticed the red light.... Got same issue with my one Avalon Unit as you described red light inside have you came up solution ? no....still have red light at the top....2 green lights on the right side....nothing on the left side of the unit..... If you plug it into a different PSU, does it do the same thing? If so, sounds like it might be time to find out how good their warranty service is. M

Even in the event that an attacker gains more than 50% of the network's
computational power, only transactions sent by the attacker could be
reversed or double-spent. The network would not be destroyed.

Haven't tried that as that particular PSU (parellel 2400) is still powering another Unit just fine..... no....still have red light at the top....2 green lights on the right side....nothing on the left side of the unit..... If you plug it into a different PSU, does it do the same thing? If so, sounds like it might be time to find out how good their warranty service is. M

Yeah, I've been on this pool for two weeks now and have made roughly half of what I am used to from other pools. I am not sure if 2 weeks is enough for a valid comparison, but I am not just a few percentage points off. I am 50% off. It's feeling rough.

That's 33%... should even out when we have a better run at some point in time. Variance is a b****.

Even then variance is a factor. There are a core of us that have been mining quite a long time, on a number of pools as well as solo, and that core is here because we've found by experience and hard data that we make more here on a steady basis than elsewhere...and we can actually see for ourselves what is happening, with an operator who is transparent. If you can find better than that, go for it.

To infinity and beyond...on two 741s and one of only 3...nope, make that 4...full nodes in Hawaii...on <30A. (I have other gear on the Hoth ice planet)

Does everyone leave their miners on 24/7 or do you turn them off during the evening? I'm running 1 s9 and a L3+, just curious what others are doing.

Mine run 24/7. It's the only way to go, unless you have differing power rates by time of day.

The good news is the difficulty increase coming in ~14 hours keeps decreasing. Was 8%, now it's closer to 6%.

Hi there guys, super excited to be here - just joined the pool (got my miner on Thursday)
Just wanted to find out, I know the pool works off a PPLNS Payment system.
Could someone please take the time to break this down and actually explain how it works and what total payments I could expect for a month? (Currently mining with one S9) Just curious on how it works, what the profitability is like etcetera
Sorry for being a noob.
Thanks

If you can find better than that, go for it. I feel your pains. July and August on this pool were well above average, but by mid September things really slowed down. I moved 1/2 of my power back to the pool I came from to keep my profits up. I really think this pool is the way mining should be, but if luck is not on your side it makes you wonder.

Hello and welcome! PPLNS stands for Pay Per Last Number of Shares. The best way to describe it is your pay per block "ramps up" from the time you start mining, and "ramps down" when you stop (for whatever reason - power outage, moving, leaving, whatever). It takes about 3 days to fully ramp up when you mine full time. What that means is we find a block before your 3 days are up (5N as it's termed), you will receive a fraction of what would be your "full payout" if you were fully "ramped up". It also means if you are offline after you reach your full 5N, and we find a block, you still receive a fraction of that "full payout". At current difficulty and BTC price, an S9 @ 14TH/s will earn about $566 for 30 days after the 0.9% pool fee. You have to subtract out your taxes and electricity costs. Note that difficulty is slated to increase by ~6% in about 12 hours, so that value will go down. If BTC price increases, then that value will go up. This pool seems to be one of the only pools, if not the only pool, that shares transaction fees of the block among the miners. Furthermore, the pool op, Kano, seems to have a pretty good system built where blocks seem to pick up higher than average transaction fees. The last block found here was worth 15.03BTC. Since a block is only 12.5 BTC, that means another 2.53 BTC in transaction fees was included, and that's divvied up among the miners proportionately based on their 5N hashrate. Lastly, this pool is "small", so variance can suck at times. On average, the pool will get 100% luck on block finding. Since it's a small pool, that means there will be times when luck really sucks. Long term, however, you will come out ahead of other pools, because of above point about transaction fees. Don't be discouraged by dry block spells. Instead, recruit others to mine here to decrease variance! Kano has all sorts of graphs and numbers on the pool page. Check them out. They will eventually make sense, once you grasp the above mentioned info. M

Hey guys, little off-topic here but I was wondering what wallets are you guys using? Are you using hardware wallets? A combination of different types? Would love to hear your input!

Where do you split your 50/50 of your hashrate ?
