Hey kano,

short question for the management.  

Are you running the pool all alone or is there any backup admin I didn't heard of yet? :-)

Maybe it's obvious but I like to know anyway.
I don't mind if you do all alone. I'm just curious about.

Thanks for making this super cool pool!!  

I really like to get on our acclaim list!  

MINE ON!!

Me, with all my alerts and alarms that wake me up whenever anything drastic happens - if I'm asleep
All the servers are managed and configured by me, in every aspect - there's more than 20 of them that are only for the pool, and others that have multiple uses.
Last year when I travelled around a bit I also made sure (when possible) that I had wifi on the planes so alerts and alarms would work there also.
Yeah you could say I'm rather attached to the pool

P.S. Yes I wanna get on the acclaim board also! I've never got on either, though my BDR is still under 0.8 after all this time.

That's so disheartening that you never found a block. When you were mining, how many TH/s did you have?

Kano knew that keeping his USB stick miner was likely not to solve a block..  BUT since he is so good at math, he figured out the probability with the current difficulty, and I believe it was somewhere around 14 years 3 months 6 days and 12 hours before his USB Stick miner solves a block.

Now that is dedication!  :-P

Just logged in...seemed fine.

Got it, safari was inputting some random data in the user name field.

ALL IS GOOD, AND MINE THE F ON WITH KANO-SAN!

Stupidly saving login credentials for anything bitcoin related in your browser?

Nope, it was pulling from a completely different website.   Restarted and all good.

Anyone here using Awesome Miner to monitor their miners?

I'm having an issue with the notification settings. The software allows you to set up rules such as Temp rules for automatic shutoff, warnings for certain set temps (you can even select chip temps vs board temps). The issue I'm having is I am not being alerted when the set temps are met on any of the miners. I'm not sure if there is a step I'm missing in applying the rules to each miner, etc.

Just curious if anyone has experience with the software that could help a brother out. I have ensured that the rules are enabled, and I have verified that the temps are set correctly and that the miners are actually at or above the temps with no warning.

Also along the same note, at what point do you get nervous for your chip temps? I know each person probably has their own temp they begin worrying about, I'm really just looking for what should be worrisome, and what would be catastrophic.

Fellow newbie here, only a week in. I've heard the self shut off for the miners is 90-100. I don't use awesome miner, can't help you there. As far as when I get concerned: One of mine when it reaches 78 on the main board will kick fans up to 6k rpm which then cools it to 75 rapidly, the fans go back to 4k rpm, and a few minutes later it is a rinse and repeat cycle. So when that one reaches 77 I go open the doors and let some heat out. My coolest one runs almost 10 degrees cooler for some reason, so I can't complain there. And my middle one the exhaust fan always run 5.2k-5.6k rpm constantly. (my next project figuring out that). Hope this helps.

Thanks for the response. That totally helps with figuring out where everyone's numbers are. Some people say they let their chip temps run up to almost 100C in the summer time and the miners are fine but I'm not comfortable with that at all. So far the highest I have seen is around 85C and I immediately cool them down at that point. I am currently using my garage until I have a shed built with an exhaust fan and an area to separate my cool and hot side. Currently the miners heat up the garage and i pop the door to let some heat out of the room until it heats up again.

Hello,

I run several S9 behind a Stratehm stratum proxy (https://github.com/Stratehm/stratum-proxy).
I have tried all ports, turning on/off Extranonce option but the kano pool state always says "Connection closed.".

Is there any way I can bypass this problem?

Unless there some incompatibility with a recent version of that proxy, I'm not sure why.

The account is OK - assuming it is using that account correctly and there's no spaces etc in the username.

PM me your IP and I'll check.

my new avalon 741 are automatically running @80-90 degree
fanspeed between 40-60%
Most time they're running on a constant level.
Not like the shitmain s9 which is turning up and down every 5 mins...

Looks like BTC is starting to go up again...even if just temporarily.

1 in 7.4.... gives a chance for everyone who just joined to ramp up to 5nD

Shit...I just check the worker page and found that it offline...
Then I check the shift graph, it show the worker offline since 16 Jan at around 11:00 UTC+8...
But I am now working at office, can't access the miner, need to wait until tonight and see what happen...
I am very worry...

Fortunately we are never 'due' anything: we expect a block 100% from 'now'

This is something that some people don't realise is pretty easy to explain also.
We always expect an average, over long term, of 100% luck - (less orphans)
So if current luck history is not what we expect, there's no such thing as 'correcting' the luck, it's simply that no matter what the luck is, over time the more expected 100% blocks you have, the closer back to 100% expected average you'll get.

What actually happens is of course random, but what to expect is always: 100% from now, and 100% long term average.

I am new to bitcoin mining, just bought my first miner and plugged it in to this pool!  Thanks for putting a forum out there for newbies like myself to learn!
