It seems like Spammers can bypass the anti-spam system. I think we need more powerful recapcha.

Steve. I can’t see anyone on ’’Who is chatting’’ please fix this visual bug.

what the heck happened on the 14th? over 10,000 miners here?

Anyone successful in using Blizs firmware?

HELLO eveyone!!!! How do I find information about a miner that’s not on the online list of my working machines??

@CSZiggy :  I need to find info from the pool, is there a way to retreive info about a certain machine?

pool is down?

There will be a quick restart to apply some changes we made today to improve profits

Hi guys, did anyone notice profits for 5/22 were especally low? Was it just me or was pool luck especially low today?

yes i think too that profit was not good today

Prices were low, but 5/22 was one of my lowest profit days ever, way under energy cost...

@mcdavi02 - my dailies have been dropping a bit - check to see if you have any chips out and reboot - I found I had quite a few marked "x". Rebooting seemed to get them working again.

As the price of bitcoin drops, it affects the value of the coins mined - as long as the "weight"/amount is the same - we are good!

luck only counts if you are solo mining, the autopool is PPS regardless of what is found or any luck.

Unless hte whole pool had bad luck for the day; my hash rates were in line with normal, so I guess it is just the coin prices low, or more hashpower...

@mcdavi02 - what algo?

fyi, on sha-256 I believe, I’ve had about 10% of primary/secondary shares reported as stale for one miner...

Hi Steve, is there any word on the status of the Cypherfunks wallet update?

why was the thread, Pool Failures deleted? it did not violate the new terms for, ’chat’. it was at least a couple sentence OP. actually, i have it here: Pool failures Postby ryguy » Thu May 24, 2018 1:40 am As I write this share processing has been down again for approximately an hour. Hashrate that is accepted, but not paid is merely theft. Had I not been awake to see it in person I would have wasted funds as shares were submitted, but not paid out, which is unacceptable for any pool. Although my time at this pool has been somewhat brief, it has been clearly demonstrated that this pool is failing to provide basic functionality in any reliable way. For the large fees we are paying there should be no reason to have unstable servers, failure to process shares and an endless barrage of bugs and code issues. At a 5% fee, which in my experience is unheard of at any other pool, I feel like I’m just lining the pockets of the pool owners and getting very little service in return, especially when considering that basic pool functions fail at an incredible frequency. The code that was released today seems, if anything, to have made things worse. I would like an honest assessment of why this pool is worth 5% of my earnings when it is unable to deliver on reliability alone.

this is what I meant when i said censorship is a slippery slope.........

it was deleted because I deleted it.

okay, thanks ryguy. didn’t know.

Chris is doing a quick restart

to correct a problem with profits

that’s something that Chris is responsible for, so if a support ticket was submitted for it, then he would be the person in charge of it

I guess somthing broke again ? constant diff 32.8K and 73 mhs on a l3+?

Thanks Steve. Chris will hopefully get to it soon! The FUNK to SNQ burn is going to begin in the next couple of weeks.

What’s the best way to get in touch with Chris? Can I send him a PM?

Thank you CSZiggy.

any L3+ experts around?

CS I just wrote it up

one machine running lower hashrates that the other for unknown reasons

never seen this in the past its something totally different

profits are so low, i’m solo mining for litecoin lol

@CSZiggy :  yes, i would rather try for $2900 than $2/day

CSZiggy wrote: just noticed, scrypt and equihash autopool paid out less than straight mining the defaults for those algos? are the hash readings or profit calcs off after the update or are those accurate numbers now?

they were equal yesterday - if they turn out lower today then we’ll investigate why that is; it may be because we were too cautious about the results of the new weighting, and if so, we’ll credit customers at the end of the day

mining offline 9:39 am EST

mining is still running

there’s just a problem with the publication of data, which will be fixed soon

no money has been lost

WTB? I’m not familiar with that

is that a plugin?

I don’t know, haven’t looked into it yet

after I resolve this problem we’ll investigate

rebooting didn’t fix it because the daemons were having problems

for some reason there’s been a lot of attacks on coin networks recently trying to reverse transactions

we need to do something about that and I perhaps need to prioritize moving up my effort to reverse 51% attacks

we should have enough hashrate to reverse the theft the next time Verge is attacked, for example

Guys is it just me or has Scrypt and X11 profit dropped off a huge cliff for the last 2 days?

crazy day at this mining pool 5/26 1:18pm EST

mcdavi02 wrote: Guys is it just me or has Scrypt and X11 profit dropped off a huge cliff for the last 2 days?

that’s an error that Chris is going to correct this evening

profitability is simply pool earnings / hashrate, and pool earnings is incorrect, so once Chris credits miners more money, that will be fixed
