question the reward of the BCC block is 10 coins, however sometimes when the pool found the block I got more coins than the other even though there are same hash power? thanks

S3KshuN8 · · #19131

I have also requested lower custom limits on BTC and BCH (BCC on bittrex, how confusing) so that they should pay out tomorrow regardless.

Jalapan · · #19132

75% efficency and no valid shares..whats going on?

dc101 · · #19133

and is anyone knows when the BCC wallet enable back? thanks

ru55ian · · #19134

Ohh, wonderful, efficiency dropped to 77%, i cannot take this anymore, will be back when that is fixed, throwing away 23% of profits is just not worth it.

S3KshuN8 · · #19135

that’s for my balances, btw. I can’t keep ~$100 locked up on those two coins on here if I can’t point at least one Ant at PH and have it make about as much as an Ant on NH.

Steve Sokolowski · · #19136

I don’t know

Steve Sokolowski · · #19137

for some reason the server just got overloaded

Steve Sokolowski · · #19138

have no idea

Steve Sokolowski · · #19139

nothing seems to have changed

S3KshuN8 · · #19140

DDoS attack probably

S3KshuN8 · · #19141

I wouldn’t be surprised if NiceHash is behind it. They likely FEAR the potential here.

Steve Sokolowski · · #19142

I doubt it

S3KshuN8 · · #19143

You’re the boss. ;)

Jalapan · · #19144

@steve why no valid shares and 65% efficency?

Steve Sokolowski · · #19145

the fact that this issue started after we fixed the connection issues is more likely

S3KshuN8 · · #19146

My assessment of their assessment of this pool remains as stated, though.

Jalapan · · #19147

I saw scrypt go upp to 600 then downagain...crashminers?

S3KshuN8 · · #19148

They FEAR us here, as it should be.

Steve Sokolowski · · #19149

well, if we do decide to expand, one of our first orders of business will be to hire a private investigator to determine who is running NiceHash and report them to government officials to ensure there is no tax evasion occurring

Steve Sokolowski · · #19150

but again, there is no evidence that NiceHash is responsible for whatever is happening, or that whatever is happening is even an attack

C0ins · · #19151

;-)

Steve Sokolowski · · #19152

NiceHash is running an illegal money transmission business

S3KshuN8 · · #19153

I can’t promise any results, but I can join the hunt!

Steve Sokolowski · · #19154

and if they are not, then they should provide proof of their licenses

Jalapan · · #19155

So why would price jump to 60" then down in 1-2 secs?

C0ins · · #19156

as long as they make me money ... I’ll pay my taxes ...

micca410evo · · #19157

Well the Mega Ultra Chickun is rising.. So same shit happening as on other pools.. pumpin double rates

C0ins · · #19158

but I’d rather use PH

S3KshuN8 · · #19159

I’d start searching in mainland China...

Steve Sokolowski · · #19160

let me try restarting

micca410evo · · #19162

@Jalapan , price is rising over buys and the downs come by standing orders (long and short time holders with sell orders on a specific worth)

If you disagree, feel free to say why

Steve Sokolowski · · #19164

I just don’t understand how they can receive and transmit money like that without licenses

micca410evo · · #19165

quit the restarts.. pls, everything is working for me

Steve Sokolowski · · #19166

people weren’t being credited

Jalapan · · #19167

@Steve make ph great again!! Make those shares come through and efficency go up to 95%+ :!:

Steve Sokolowski · · #19168

we had to restart

Steve Sokolowski · · #19169

I’m going to look at changes that were made over the past week to see what might have caused that

micca410evo · · #19170

You are a dick for people that have to restart their miners manually.. ;-)

S3KshuN8 · · #19171

then they are not set up correctly.

C0ins · · #19172

I hope there is something lost in translation there

micca410evo · · #19173

it picked up automatically though xD

S3KshuN8 · · #19174

you’re the dick for setting them up wrong and expecting the pool to fix your problem for you.

Jalapan · · #19175

@Steve last 3 days ive had to get manual adjusting for lost shares..maybe That will give you a clue :)?

micca410evo · · #19176

I think the wink didnt bring in the sarcasm mode? @S3KshuN8

S3KshuN8 · · #19177

yeah I can wink too. ;)

micca410evo · · #19178

ok good, sorry i’ll try to keep it professional than

FRISKIE · · #19179

And I get busted and nearly banned for my comments, you guys are too wild! :D

Steve Sokolowski · · #19180

one way we might be able to better handle this problem is to simply prevent more than 5000 connections

S3KshuN8 · · #19181

I stopped trying to be professional a couple of decades ago... My bad, sorry.

Steve Sokolowski · · #19182

there we go again

Steve Sokolowski · · #19183

something happens after a period of time

FRISKIE · · #19184

Do you mean limit to under 5000 workers?

Steve Sokolowski · · #19185

it’s really odd because the number of coins is low now

Steve Sokolowski · · #19186

so it’s not coin assignment, which would have been really bad

ru55ian · · #19187

zpool is showing 0.5% rejected - You need to get there Steve

S3KshuN8 · · #19188

If you KNOW or at least suspect that NiceHash is running an illegal operation, the obvious solution is to STOP feeding them!

Steve Sokolowski · · #19189

feeding what?

Yapudan · · #19190

Wow over 600 stale

S3KshuN8 · · #19191

you’re contributing to NH’s success over your own by allowing rented rigs to mine here.

ru55ian · · #19192

i didnt know NS started accepting fiat??? if now fiat, no money transfer

Steve Sokolowski · · #19193

we can’t prevent them from mining here

micca410evo · · #19194

Well best of luck, i’m going to try and see the inside of my eyelids

Jalapan · · #19195

My heart is bleeding shares!!plsz halp me steve

micca410evo · · #19196

Have a good one all

Steve Sokolowski · · #19197

let me continue investigating to see what the problem actually is

S3KshuN8 · · #19198

You can remove the incentive to crash mine here, though.

Steve Sokolowski · · #19199

how?\

S3KshuN8 · · #19200

Well, it’s PPS here, currently...

Steve Sokolowski · · #19201

anyway, I think there’s a clue I found, I wonder if there’s some sort of network issue causing duplicate connections

Yapudan · · #19202

Maybe I’ll try to increase difficulty, i haven’t changed my dns either read that we would need to do that but tons of stale shares right now. Should be priority to those of use bringing hash power here with our own rigs. We are the ones that make the money for this pool

Jalapan · · #19203

steve

Jalapan · · #19204

change to PPLNS

Jalapan · · #19205

Which payment model should I use? PPLNS If you are looking to make money off of the cryptocoin network, you want to use PPLNS due to its higher payout.PPLNS will give you wide fluctuations in your 24 hour payout, but for hardcore miners,the law of large numbers states you will earn more this way. This is for people trying to mine as fast as possible. PPS PPS is for people who want to have statistics to base calculations off of for upsizing their mining power.PPS is not recommended for a simple mining because the payout is less in the long run.

ru55ian · · #19206

if the pool is making 5k a day, do you think they care where that coin is coming from NH or small miner?

S3KshuN8 · · #19207

I’ll point all my rigs here and set the tip to 100% if they fix the problems. (After my ROI party.)

FRISKIE · · #19208

YES! PPLNS , do you hear Steve, more than just me have this idea as the real solution :)

Jalapan · · #19209

PPS = good for crash miners and bad for prohashing loyal miners, PPLNS = bad for crash miners and good for prohashing loyal miners

Jalapan · · #19210

easy peasy

FRISKIE · · #19211

PPLNS favors the longer term stable and loyal miners over the opportunistic ones that try to swoop in for a quick profitable moment

FRISKIE · · #19212

@Jalapan - So glad to see your comments, I have tried to make the same points myself

Jalapan · · #19213

yes but you must control your temper friskie ^^ you are a hot potatoe :D

dc101 · · #19214

can anyone access the BCC wallet?

S3KshuN8 · · #19215

oh great, I think I just found my twin.... ;)

ru55ian · · #19216

without NH power this pool will go down to 100 miners, like it was a year ago... no money for Brothers

FRISKIE · · #19217

@Steve - rather than so many attempted technical solutions, doesnt it make sense to try PPLNS as a trial payment scheme to see how it may remove the incentive for the crash miners that are ruining performance?

C0ins · · #19218

not true ... I know PH is in conversations with a large mining operation in WA to integrate ... if they do that ... they can kick out PH and keep the money flowing

S3KshuN8 · · #19219

I’m willing to take that risk. I’ll bump my tip to a sustainable level if it’s a profitable pool.

C0ins · · #19220

"real miners"

FRISKIE · · #19221

With PPLNS noone will need to argue against NH miners any longer either, because those who run longer term, stable orders will be a good thing for the pool

Jalapan · · #19222

id rather have a successful pool with a nice community, then some unstable pool filled with crash bots.. besides the ppl here got enough hashpower to help the brothers make money, there are atleast 500 D3+ coming online shortly here..

FRISKIE · · #19223

|Exactly, and PPLNS will remove the incentive for this nasty bot driven behaviour

S3KshuN8 · · #19224

500 D3’s who will eventually go elsewhere if the status quo is maintained...

ru55ian · · #19225

d3... just a waste... buy a miner for 1 coin??? i dont get it.

C0ins · · #19226

I have 150 L3+ going live in October ... I really want a stable solution with PH.

FRISKIE · · #19227

Only the responsible miners from NH (like me :) ) who run 24 hour orders with responsible diff. settings to minimize share submissions would be left

megaquake · · #19228

Pplns is bad for profit switching

FRISKIE · · #19229

It has nothing to do with it!!
