Merry Xmas All!
Just started 12h ago with a few S9s. Good to be here.
Already got a reward and payment, but it does not show in my wallet yet, is that normal?
Sorry for the noob question, first timer..
Happy holidays and good mining!
Cheers
The Help->Payouts page explains it. First we find a block, next it gets +101 confirms (and changes to Matured) then I send out the payout. A block reward can't be spent until after 101 confirms of the block - no matter what pool. Once the transactions has been sent out (~1 minute after the block has matured) the transaction must be confirmed. 'Confirmed' means a transaction is included in a block. Our next block found after the block matured, will confirm the payouts transaction, unless some other pool confirms it before then.

Got another of those 'bazillion web logins' going on on the web site again. You'll find logins disabled for a while.

Silly bots. Can you pick up any pattern ?

Silly bots. Can you pick up any pattern ? No it's just the usual bazillions of windows computers with viruses that people control. Since a large part of the world likes windows, blocking all windows computer connections isn't ideal

Since a large part of the world likes windows, blocking all windows computer connections isn't ideal So I've had a think about yet another way to stop the bots when someone does this, since it's been happening a lot lately. At the moment I simply disable logins until some (short or long) time after they stop doing it. From now on, I'll do something a little more drastic, but it will allow people to normally login. Basically, after a bot login attempt starts, it will switch to ban anyone who fails a single password attempt. Under normal circumstance, it takes a few login failures to get banned, but I can (of course) change that setting at any time. So when the bots attack it will ban the IP of anyone who fails even a single login attempt. This way it will affect all the bots, but only rarely affect any users who can't remember their password, and only during the bot attacks Edit: and the bot's started again - let's see if they all get banned - seems to be working

Good plan but I do have one suggestion... maybe show a message when you ban them that tells them how to get unbanned - something like wait 24 hours or contact you or something.

This one today has gone on for well over 2 hours so far ... I don't want to be giving them any hints about "best bot practices"

Heh - no - probably need to redirect them to microsoft defender web page ... They already have a virus Edit: seems to have trickled down to only one or two bans every minute or so, (instead of every second) so that always-ban change seems to work ok. Of course I wont post when I've set the setting back to normal, but no doubt that will be soon

Actually - it's exactly that I coded in the event/ovent ban code to KanoDB long ago, but every so often some new bot comes along and I have to think of how I can change the settings in the ban code (i.e. modify the limits via the KanoDB API) to best match the bot. I've ended up mainly relying on the "no logins" switch, but that's a problem when it goes on for a long time and no one can login normally. I think from now on I'll rely on switching on/off the "zero tolerance" ban, since it doesn't affect anyone logging in normally unless they forget their password or can't type their own username Most people don't have the problem, and the few that do can always contact me to check why they were banned and clear their ban if they weren't part of the bot attack

My worker is still showed in the stats page with the current hashrate, but in the Workers - workers tab and at the top right near my username it shows 0GHs or ?GHs. Is that normal Kano?

The pool generated stats take a while to change. That can take hours to match your miner. Though, if you don't wait at least a minute before you started mining, your top right numbers may well show as zero. The KanoDB stats lines for your workers are immediate values, but not accurate in measuring your hash rate vs your miner. They're there so you can see immediately what's happening when you first connect a miner.
