Best bet is to ping and see if its got less latency

....yea i dont know how to do that

Thanks Kano. Mine On, I look forward to adding a little Hash to the Pool!!

The Best,

Well, procrastinating (lazy-ass) me has finally switched all of my miners to the NY node. I have intended to do it since its inception, but..... I never bothered to check the ping times. I'm in IT, BTW, so I should know better...

I'm located in Western North Carolina, so it shouldn't be rocket science for me to use the NYA node.
Anyway, here are my results:

Additionally, a note to @Kano. I know someone has previously offered to add the Kano info to their full node. I don't recall if there was an answer.
I have been running a full node for about a year and I would gladly add the Kano ID/IP to my node if it would help with our block propagation. I usually have about 50 good peers on my node.

If there is any interest, Kano, please feel free to PM me in response. Thanks!

Hi, i have been mining in this pool for almost 3 days but i didn't get paid !
i can see my worker and the hash rate all is ok so when i'll get paid ?
i'm using Antminer s9

[firetreeactual]

Ditto here on the full node thingy...I generally run around 65-90 connections. Not my forte for understanding, but anything if it can help.

How many blocks has the pool hit in the last 3 days since you started? There's your answer - you only get paid when we find a block.

You get a reward when we find a block after you start mining.
Unfortunately the last one we found (on the previous page) was stale.
See Help->Payouts on the web site for more info.

Doesn't really matter.
The main block distribution is via the relay - which we're connected to all over the world, with nodes close to each relay point.
Our blocks get to them pretty quickly, as do block changes get to us, from them, pretty quickly.
The pool has 14 bitcoind around the world to help with this.
Of course, each node has one.

Kano, I am coding up various general information about Kano.is right now - plus based on the previous discussion on fees, I just started tracking bytes that need to be confirmed so that we can text / email people when fees are lower to consolidate smaller blocks.  

I am hoping to tell what the pool average we would be paid by at this exact moment.  Is there a way to calculate that with the information you show on the home page?  I know you have the instant hash rate, but I would like to have the PPLNS stored in 5 minute increments as well as the real time hash rate.  I suppose I could always estimate it by looking at all the previous 5 minute hashes for the 5Nd that you report on https://kano.is/index.php?k=payout, but that will probably lose a fair bit of accuracy in the translation.  

It would also be nice to be able to get the actual payouts from the api.  I plan to give the ability to text/email for every block and/or after they make a profit beyond their power and expenses.  As it currently stands, I will have to be asking for username, password and 2fa to be able to deliver those details from the Kano site, but most people will not want that information out.  Most of the other pools do share payout info via the api.

In any case, please share your thoughts on how I can compute the payout hash rates.  Thanks so much and I hope you are doing well.

If I am understanding your post correctly, I don't think it can be done with any accuracy. A block we find might be 12.5 (with almost no transaction fees the miner earn) or a block with 2, 3 or 4 BTC in transaction fees.
So I think the wide range of block reward could not be accurately predicted.

If I'm misunderstanding your post, sorry about that.
And MINE ON!!

You can't compute them in advance.

You will find no predictions about future rewards on the web site for a reason, it's random and I'm not interested in providing guesses about what people might get in the future.

The payout generation code takes 2-5 seconds to determine the 5Nd and calculate the rewards.
It also has to wait until after a certain set of events to ensure the value is correct - usually about 15 minutes.

There is simply an 'expected' reward if luck is 100%, actual rewards on the rewards page, and pool average pps%s on the blocks page for various ranges.

If you are requesting people to give you access to  their login password so you can guess what they will be paid in the future, you come off as a scam.
I certainly will not be removing the warning on the web site about that and would block any site doing logins to multiple accounts.
Mining is a lot of money, and anyone asking people for access to their money sounds like a phishing scam.

My goal is to have the miner enter their power and any pro rated costs so there is a cost per second to operate the miner. Then the miner van  select that they want a report issued via text or email once per day, week or whenever a block is found. I would list their earnings, costs based on the time it took to find the block and overall profit for the block. I eventually want to have an analysis of how their past performance in other pools "Would have been". Obviously the past  is the past, so maybe not worth it.  When I was in slush, my custom monitoring system would text me whenever a block was found where I profited more that day 50%. That is a piece of what I hope to offer to all miners for free forever. And if they see value,  maybe a donation or two  will come in.

Yes, I probably won't go down  the road of usernames because my site would be subject to attack.  So if the API won't offer past  payments fur the miner, then that info won't be offered. But I still will be able to offer alerts for miner problems which is also valuable. So could I use my hash rate and kano payment to compute other miners payments based  on the hash rate ratios that their miners generated?

Sorry this is so confusing.

Minergain, you *do* know that much of what you describe is already available for folks using monitor sw like Awesome Miner or Cryptoglance right? Difference is, the software is running to monitor what goes on with their farms and that is what people care about - not how the whole pool per se is doing though Awesome for one does make a lot of pool into available based on what Kano's API allows.

Being their mine only, no problem telling the monitor app what our API key is since it is for private use as intended. Making that info public - not here bucko!

I will look into those. Saves me lots of time writing this system. So I keys will never be public though.... Only used for that miners secure info, nothing  will be public except when blocks are found in pools.

Yeah, I use Awesome Miner to monitor and maintain my miners. I certainly like it better than going to multiple miner IP web tabs to make changes. And it does provide almost all the information one would be interested in located in one location.

It also gives a per day, per month prediction of what the miners "should" earn. Unfortunately, it doesn't prove to be very accurate with our high variance. It MAY work better on a different type of pool. I WISH its predictions were spot on! I'd be very happy!
