OK, why is BTC crashing? Just curious.

Someone, please accelerate the payment so we can cash it out before BTC tanks

Then I can use it to buy low when it goes up again if it goes up!

[truwolf]

there was a hack of a BTC exchange in Hongkong yesterday ...

[firetreeactual]

Relax, grasshoppers...I haven't received it yet, either, but have no fear it will get here.

Mine on.

Sorry, in South Korea. The BTC exchange had to close doors then ... ("Youbit")

I've been with kano.is for about 6 days now and have been mining 24x7 for those days with my bitcoin address (nothing spectacular but a solid 6.5Th/s constantly), should I have received a share of the payment for the block that was found yesterday? If I search my btc address on blocktrail.com nothing shows up.

The transaction I sent out 21 hours ago is here:
https://btc.com/9cfe4008a309f34a02729e90d3d2bd8e297cd64311602fd2ba705959db496ff6

The new display page for payouts (when it's available) will show the transaction ID also.

thank you Kano, very helpful! 0.0007(ish) coming my way - woohoo!

Does someone mind please sharing a screenshot of their S9 status page so i can compare to what mine should look like?

It looks like my brand new unit is only hashing at 13.5

Thanks !

That's what it should be hashing at.   13.5 +/- 5% 

Ok cool, my first experience with the S9 so i was just looking for that confirmation. Thanks!

If you really think BTC is gonna tank, BTC mining is not your best choice of things to do.

Maybe become a day trader?

It was in jest Kano, only in jest. Other than why it was going down that is.

Everyone seemed interested in the payment....

Probably crashing because of fears of Nicehash was SUPPOSED to be back up at 24:00 CET and they were late, 17 minutes,  THEN a few minutes later  - web server not responding  hahahah  NICE Start!  Sorry Un-realted to Kano, but is funny none the less

Is this because you send the transaction with a 0 fee payable and then confirm it ourselves with the next block we find, unless someone else adds it to their block and makes no fee from it?

Well for a while this year most of the time I send it with a 42,000 sat fee so you should see it unconfirmed.
The catch is that if blocks are full, then other pools wont confirm it, if it has a fee or not, since it's a large transaction.
If no one else confirms it before our next block, then our next block will confirm it.

Can someone clarify the fees? If someone confirms the payment before the next block, will it still be 0 fee? And if it does go through with our next block, is that truly 0 fee? I am new to all this and didn't know there are tricks to getting payments confirmed with 0 fees.

The fee can be assigned per transaction.  Those fees are included in the block that pools find, that's anything ever the 12.5 Bitcoin.  Pools/Miners choose the transactions that have the highest transaction fee payout to maximize the gains.

If someone else includes our transaction in their block, they get the 45000 Satoshis that was sent as the transaction fee with that transaction.  If no one does and we find the next block, that transaction is included if it is still unconfirmed, thus, we get our own 45000 satoshis in our next block, which ends up going back to our pockets.

Ok thanks for the clarification. Is that 45000 Satoshis per wallet payout, or for all of the payouts combined?

OK, why is BTC crashing? Just curious.

It was a big day for Bitcoin Cash, as it got listed on several exchanges. Consequently, it was up over 75% at some point. A lot of the $ going into BCH comes out of Bitcoin, hence the sudden drop in price in BTC while BCH goes on a heater. Now as the dust settles, BCH has already given back some of its immediate gains, while BTC is regaining some of the day's decline.

Nevertheless, the day to day price of BTC is just a distraction, especially for a miner. As Kano said earlier, if you are overly concerned about the current BTC price, day-trading may be a better calling...

It's 42000 out of my pocket

P.S. there's another small web DDoS going on ... if you find you can't login to the web site.

No effect on mining at all.

Hello Kano, Newbie from Belgium there.
Since yesterday 16:00 (GMT +1 ) I have rented Ant miner with 7.8 TH/s during 24h. Now I would like to calculate my ROI to decide if this solution is interesting or not. Then, could you let me know how much rewards I have mined during 24h.

By the way, please, let me know about payout date, I have no idea how to check it in blockchain explorer.

I apologize about my poor mining knowledge actually. For sure i grow up to expert stage as soon as possible.

Thank's a lot

Have a nice mining job

Why is the Mem Pool slammed. Is it because only 5% of the BTC Network is signaling for SEGWIT?

[mdude77]

The free tx accelerator is here.

Per Kano, the tx id is:

9cfe4008a309f34a02729e90d3d2bd8e297cd64311602fd2ba705959db496ff6

I'd like to get the payout earlier too.  If enough of us try, we can probably get the tx in the accelerator.  Eventually.  Just post here if you do, so that the rest of us can stop.

It's because there has been no consensus on how to address it.

Apparently "just upgrading the block size" isn't as easy as it sounds.

So we continue to live with high transaction fees and slow confirmations.

jiizzz ! They don't give me enough infos before renting, damn !

OK, would you give me a good strategy about mining duration? How much time have I to mine for interesting payout?

Last renting 24h solution burn me 30$US for 7.8TH/s, the goal may be to test wich device is most efficient before to buy it.

Any opinion, please?
