Is there a chance that is what happens when a larger miner has a bank of machines go offline?
Just a guess
Edit: oh I missed mentioning a second cause of it also. There's a large miner that fails over often to the pool, his SPS value is actually about the same as the pool total SPS! So when that happens, there may be a large number of 'Hi' shares when he connects - and as I've explained before about 'Hi' shares, they actually don't matter at all in terms of reward effect on the miner. But alas, they do show up as part of the 'Invalid' count. So again, when this happens, if the pool Diff% is very low, it will appear as a much higher Invalid %. WHOA....pump the brakes a sec! Almost missed the scope of this! U are sayin there is a 200+ph miner who FAILS over to the pool randomly? That's a really big fish in a really small pond! Not complaining, just wondering the logic of such a move I've seen luckyant fail over with 117 PH in gear before. I used to have a screen shot of it somewhere.

Hmm - block txn fees have gone up over the last 12 hours on all blocks - hmm I wonder if that's the sign of a price rise? ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) It figures! I was just going to consolidate my mining payouts... So what fee would you guys recommend since I'm using Bitcoin Core to consolidate ~0.05 BTC if you were in no rush to get it confirmed? Also, I noticed when I imported my mining address that Bitcoin Core created 3 different addresses in my wallet--each starting with a different character (e.g. 1, 3, b)... Does that mean I could consolidate my BTC from one to another of the three even though they were all generated from the same private key?

Always a good sign ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) As much as I can't stand all the speculators manipulating the market on BTC, gold, silver, etc., I'm with you here in thinking that they've been waiting to see how low BTC goes before it steadies out, and then they pounce, driving it up in a fury, and getting right back out after they've made a cool mill or two...

I always do pretty close to the minimum and check the box to change the fee later on. A few months ago when it was so crazy, it would sometimes take 3 to 4 weeks but eventually would go through. You can check minergain at https://minergain.com/faq.html#btctxfees and look at the 1 week amount. According to the last stats, the mempool is still low at 3.6 Mb, so should still confirm pretty quickly.

Thanks. Any idea about the three addresses generated from the same private key thing?
You can consolidate to any of your address, regardless of type. Just send the max amount (or use coin control) to any one of your addresses, even if it's in the same wallet. If you're not in a rush to consolidate, I would sent 1sat/byte with RBF enabled. This is the distribution of the mempool right now, meaning it will probably get cleared soon, so 1sat/byte would be enough. However, it could keep climbing, in which case you may have to bump the fee up via RBF so your coins are not stuck. Wtf? The previous block was 15 btc
Some guy paid 5k satoshis/byte ![Shocked](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/shocked.gif)

We may be heading back to the Nov/Dec days....18-20BTC blocks were the norm.

it IS great!!
Can someone explain me how a block gets fat or not? I hear transactions etc. but isnt it just a list of all transactions that every block carries with it? (so all should be approximately equal?)
thanks.

When you send a transaction to somewhere else, you decide what transaction fee to add to it. In the case of the exchanges, they make it simpler by picking the highest value (quickest confirm time) for you. If you want your money moved quickly, you need to put a higher fee so that the miners pick it up right away. If there are a lot of transactions waiting, that transaction money keeps getting higher to get over the top of everyone else. As we mine, Kano's software picks out the best transactions for us to use in our mining. Once we get the block, all the transaction fees get added to our mining proceeds. So the net effect is that when bitcoin is active (more marketing hype perhaps), we get paid a lot more per block we find.
