That would be the longest at the current hashrate. A better comparison would be the highest percentage block... can't find the details on mobile right now. I think it was like 900% and was a little over 2 weeks or something but that's just what I can remember
Hello Kano, Are going to give back the held payout? Thanks
Give back??? Did he take one from you somehow?? Guessing it's just poorly worded. Can't say I know of any held payment, that is to say unless you mean being below dust... if so that's been addressed and will be paid out when the new accounting software is finished.

checked on my rewards mining - its around 7 days...8 sept to 14 sept 2018. Time isn't really much of a measurement of a block since it isn't a factor in determining how well you are rewarded. I depends on the always changing pool hash rate. Difficulty is what matters. e.g. the 928.788% block last October lasted 3 days, 15 hours and 32 minutes the 303.012% at the start of March lasted 4 days, and 1 hour ... the 303% one is way more preferable ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

Yep it's with your dust rewards - still on the web site, no rewards have disappeared, but still awaiting me to complete the accounting changes.

checked on my rewards mining - its around 7 days...8 sept to 14 sept 2018. ok, I saw that one on the blocks page - just was not sure how far back the site went history wise vs how long the pool has been around. That would be the longest at the current hashrate. A better comparison would be the highest percentage block... can't find the details on mobile right now. I think it was like 900% and was a little over 2 weeks or something but that's just what I can remember
yea, I saw the one that was 327% which also matches the one bullnw mentioned. I also see that we had one for 379% in July. Well, I hope we do not break that record lol

On Wed, 02/08/2017, you wrote: Hi zhd, Done, the payout for the new block 478648 will be sent out. Just a reminder, as I wrote at the start of the post on the forum, "However, the held payouts will sit in your dust fund until I do the dust processing code, some time in the future, in a galaxy far far away." This should be done before the end of the year - but don't hold your breath. -Cheers -Kano I appreciate your hard work. But don't you think it is about time to finish the code? Thank you

I see all this back and forth about dust - I know I even asked about it at the start - but after it was explained - I moved on.
are there people with low hash rates that have large volume of dust payments being held that end up amounting to quite a bit and they are frustrated because had they gotten it when earned that it would have been worth more at the time BTC hit 20k range? Provided they had actually held on to it at that time? I mean each dust payment alone would not be worth much but if someone had maybe 50 of them?

The dust policy was never a secret here on the Kano pool. Dust payouts would never get confirmed if they had been paid because of the small size so it was never an option. If folks were serious about BTC mining they could have easily picked up an older miner for next to nothing to get above the dust level so it would have only been a couple of dust payments along the way. Kano is working to update the accounting piece of the pool; again not a secret. It will be done when it's done.

agreed and that is why I moved on after it was explained to me, some people are going on about it for years though it seems lol - I only have one dust payment held so not an issue to me, will be nice to get it eventually but in the big picture scheme of things, it isn't worth much.

Thanks to some timely advice by many here and on Discord (my thanks to all) I am finally above the dust level. I had been mining on and off with mostly USB miners and for a while with an S3 and then an S5. Out of 181 rewards since last September, I have about 350,000 satoshi in dust payments sitting on the pool. I don't think I ever posted about it, as I see Bitcoin as a long term investment. But I did hop to a few other pools until I figured out how this thing worked. I avoided the Chinese pools, but went for the one with the glitzy interface and the (smaaaall) daily payments, even though I had to set the threshhold high and then manually trigger one. So I am happy now to relate that with the collapse of BitMain miner prices, I got an S9 from E-Bay for $399 and have been running it each night. Now at twenty cents a kWh, I am only powering one hash board and turn it off each morning, but it still is enough to get over the dust limit for the last dozen blocks. During the day, I run my little USB miners pointed at Kano, to keep my hash rate from dropping to absolute zero. Maybe I will eventually go to co-location, if I can find a site that is not shutting down due to cost over runs. So, as far as I am concerned, Kano should take as much time as it takes to do a complete and thorough job on the accounting code, including thorough testing cycles. After all, I would hate for him to overpay me on my dust, and then I would have to send him some of it back.

That S9 should be just fine....and yes eventually that 350,000 satoshi payment will be coming your way!

I think BigIron literally just said he's above dust at 1TH.

P.S. - I bet others are complaining about way less than 0.00350'000...

Just above 1TH should be just fine to collect on every block, but with prices so low...just get an s9 or 841 and mine on!

I calculate approximately 1.8THs to just be above dust based on latest block payout.
