[Yes, transactions with lower fees have lower priority in the mempool and can sit out there for a long time without being picked up.  What are the transaction ids?  I could try to insert them into one of the transaction accelerators to get them moving.  Sometimes that works.]


I have accelerated them through ConfirmTX. Thank you for the offering to assist   What I would like to know is how to do it myself.

does that even work?

I used them (Confirm) as a test for one last week and it confirmed after about 12 hours. Could have been a fluke, but ...

You can put your transaction ID into https://pool.viabtc.com/tools/txaccelerator/ which is one I use.  It gets used a lot so most of the time it says it's full now and try again later.  I did figure out that they only accept 100 IDs each hour and if you try right at the top of the hour you have a much better chance of getting your transaction in.  They do require that your fee on the transaction be at least 0.0001BTC/KB or they won't accept it.  The service is free which is good.

I have tried to use the viabtc, but have not had any luck. Thx everyone for the help.

Yep we need a block an hour to close out Nov. on the East Coast. I just sacrificed a sesame chicken and egg roll from the Hong Kong Restaurant.

Pool's on UTC time, since we have miners from all over the globe, so as Maxwell Smart would say, "missed it by that much!"  
You got the right idea with the chicken sacrifices, that used to work... 
Mine on, and I'll finally get the replacement S9 for the crappy R4 online and hashing here sometime next week when it hits the Ice Mines on Hoth.

My payment from 11/28 confirmed sometime while I slept. Looked in hope that we might have gotten a block but no joy yet.
Let December 2017 be a good month for kano pool!

I have to laugh at the "analysts" who try to treat bitcoin like something they actually know about. Over the months a trend of pumping and dumping, usually with a high around midweek and a profit taking on Thursday or Friday has emerged. All you have to do is look at the historical graph. Not with standing the ups and downs, the overall trend is still rising. Yes, it would be nice to see bitcoin rise a bit more steadily, but that is not the case when unrestrained greed is only hampered by market forces.

I would think those who study laissez-faire economy would be using bitcoin as a proving grounds for an look at what happens when government regulation is ineffective or not present.

can you help with this one?

I tried to put this into the viabtc accelerator for you but it says transaction fees are too low. You have to put in at least 10 sat/byte to be accepted there. The BTC.COM accelerator choked on it and said it was a double spend transaction.

Looks like lightsword is back, and canaan has booted up some additional miners. Let's bring on a December opposite of the last one!

Hi guys,

I am in S.Africa i am using stratum+tcp://nonce.kano.is:27181 i have antminers s9 and avalon is it good or do you guys propose a better URL for Africa.
Thanks

Don't use the nonce link for regular miners...it is only for use by Asicminer Tubes which is an older type of machine.

Ping each of the links to see which ones are fastest for you and go from there.

[clgrissom3]

If you are not sure how to ping, log into one of your machines, click on the Network tab and then click on the Diagnostics tab.  Ping each of the Kano links below and note the average speed it takes and use the fastest as your main link.  It's also a good idea to use main stratum link as one of your backups just in case the node you choose to use goes down for some reason.

I just want to know if anyone else feels the same way about this.  I love that the price of BTC is way high but this seriously fast increase in price somewhat worries me.  I don't want to say anything bad about BTC, I just feel like it's kinda out of control, that's the point though.  I don't know could it ever be possible that the price decreases to where it was say 6 months ago or less?  Where do you guys think it will level off and who decides the price, I think the traders do but I really have no idea.  Let me know what you guys think?  Happyyyyy Mining Kano people!

I also wonder, but I treat mining and crypto investments much like stocks and gambling.  It is like stocks in that it is more risky than bonds and like gambling in that I only put money in that I will not destroy my future if it goes bust. Obviously there is much more up side than this, but there is a small chance that it will all fall apart. If your risk tolerance is lower than this, then it is best to convert enough earnings to pay your power each month. That makes your mining operation much less risky.  Anyway, this is risky business, but as we have all seen, there is a lot of upside potential too.  I hope this helps gives you some options.

Bitcoin was created to eat Fiat currency. The M2 money supply during the Obama Administration went parabolic. They created trillions of Fiat dollars and every industrialized country followed suit. They had to do it to keep the Ponzi scheme going (confidence game). They can only inflate traditional markets so much without hyperinflation taking hold and destroying confidence in the system. China is 4 times more in debt than the United States on a GDP basis. So, what do you do to keep the ponzi going? You design a Fiat Currency eating machine, something that will eventually, over time, eat all the bloated assets up and replace their valuations into a Global means of exchange. Ta Da!! Bitcoin and other crypto currencies.
Now, with that said, there are going to be temporary pullbacks and occasional bear markets in the Crypto's. The Golden Rule I follow is that I don't own anything in this space that is not mined. Bitcoin is and will be the Gold Standard for all others to follow. There will be consolidation, but eventually all Crypto will either be sucked up by Bitcoin or will be integrated to conduct Hotswaps with Bitcoin. 1 year prediction: July 2018 BTC 22K, end of FY18, BTC no less than 50K. Remember we have a halving coming up, which makes all BTC worth even more $$$.
Fundamentals are as follows: Limited Supply, less than 1% fiat currency participation, early innovation stage is still in progress, some early adoption into mainstream (think Japan) = Huge growth into the near term, huge growth long term.
Finally, if BTC garners 1% of the worlds Fiat wealth, BTC = 1 million dollars or more per coin. HODL

 i dont get it
so what does it mean?
the transaction is lost?
can it be cancelled?

this was a test from my ledger nano to coinbase
is not much but it is $20

Hi
Quick question, i have 0.169 block% in my workers page, does this means my % of the block reward?
thanks

Close but not quite.
That is simply your % of all the work sent to the pool since the last block.

Now, IF the pool hash rate was constant for the last 5Nd when we next find a block, and your hash rate was also constant for the last 5Nd when we hit that block, then that % would be pretty close to the % you'd be getting of the total block reward.

However, this is PPLNS with N = 5Nd
So your actual reward each block is your % of shares in the last 5Nd when the block is found.

That Block% gives you an idea of how much of the total pool hash rate you are, but it's not the same data range as used to determine rewards.
They are 2 independent numbers - 5nd vs "Since Last Block"

When you send a transaction, you specify a fee per byte (or your wallet does.) This is paid out to miners - the higher the fee, the higher priority the transaction.

The mining pool has a list of transactions it keeps, and it picks the top ones that will fit into their block size to include in a block. This is a "confirmation" of your send.

If your fee is too low, the transaction will sit in their list for sometime, a week or so, before they drop it. At this point, the coins are credited back to your wallet and its like you never sent them.

I guess nothing to do but wait. It hasn’t been a week

You can also consolidate all your small transactions by doing a low payment amount.  I had about 30 transactions that I sent to myself (consolidated into one) on 11/9 with a very small miner fee and it eventually got included in a block 10 days later.  I thought it would never get picked up and drop off with all the bitcoin activity but it did go through finally.  Guess you never know.  Having it consolidated saves you fees when you "need" to move it faster than 10 days...

We're right at the 100% level now.  Praying this isn't an 800% block, would wipe out this pool.
