In case anyone noticed, the pool was down for a bit this morning.  I was going to update to 0.16 core, but realized that in order to do so, I need to do a bunch of work on the pool software (0.16.0 got rid of the "getinfo" API call).  Until I rewrite the code to use different API calls, I reverted back to 0.15.1.

I'll keep everyone updated on the progress.  In the meantime, the pool is back up and running Smiley.

This is explains my miniscule balance at the slush pool, where my miners spent their time, instead.

Thanks!  I noticed my hash failing over.   Glad all is OK.

Besides the rise in price is also the corresponding rise in difficulty.  When I started this pool in 2015 you had a pretty decent shot of hitting a block or even two by renting 1PH.  The very first block I found was with a rental like that.  Now, a 1PH rental has a very slim chance of finding a block.  Of course, the difficulty when I started was 65,848,255,179.  A bit different than what it is now Smiley

it is why I used the 1btc example  if I rent  1btc at close to the fair price  1/13 or 1/12.5  is my math  or percentage chance of a block

problem for me is 10,400  is simply not doable..

1 btc at nicehash  would get a lot of hash now

.0812 btc is 1 ph for a day    but  your chance of a block is around .0812/125  or 153 to 1

at 10000 a coin  .0812 btc = 812 usd  a lot to lose if you miss.

at 500 a coin .0812 btc = 40.60 usd  not too bad

I need my bigger rentals last spring  when coins was going over 2000 I realized the only way I could lose out was a cold streak  with the rentals  .  So I stopped them ..  At the moment I have 30 gpus mining

here is one gpu  of my 30
https://www.nicehash.com/miner/3QPFEdX8rtXHoVZHct5eUbp7AK1t1vRMfL

in 2 weeks time I will earn enough to do a rental here.  and I will  if it misses I will lose 55 usd

How can this happen?

12 blocks found in 2016
Zero blocks found in 2017, exactly at the moment
in which i joined this pool.
What are the odds of this?
I'm an unlucky one, I think.

Not really  what killed blocks was btc price range.

In  2016  1 btc  at nicehash  could rent a lot and give you about a 1 in 12 shot at a block  from July 15 or so on well maybe more like a 1 in 13 shot at a block

for all of 2016  1 btc was less then 910

so  I could rent  1 btc 1 time a month  for under 500.

As  price shot up in Nov 2016  above 500  from Jan 2016 to Nov 2016  I did 2 or 3 btc in rentals  Spent  well under  2000 doing it.

Last year it was 900 to 19500  and now it is   10,700  I can not spend 1 btc 2 or 3 times  this year.  Same is true for most of use renters  so hitting a block is harder.

3  misses at 10,700 = 31100 usd
3 misses at   500 =  1500 usd

Can you check the 3334 proxy?  NiceHash reporting failure to connect with pool test.
I couldn't find any issues, and I saw you had quite a bit of hash pointed to the pool yesterday.

Pool is reporting dead ?!?
HI jonnybravo0311
 
What happens to the pool?  are you doing an update?  I do not see workers inside (
Sorry about that folks.  Pool didn't restart automatically and I slept through the alarms.  It's all back up and running properly again.  Total downtime was just under 3 hours.

Thanks for adjusting the auto-payout fee, super reasonable.

It would be nice to see a block, but some here have been waiting way longer than me lol.

Have not read through all 92 pages, but I did do a search and couldn't find anything on the payout fee in this thread or on Google.  One page on the website, about on-demand payout, says there's an 0.001 BTC fee for the payout.  But then the auto-payout field also seems to say there's an 0.001 BTC payout fee for each one.  The little ? icon doesn't do anything, so there doesn't seem to be any more clarification on this.  Slushpool doesn't have any payout fee, though of course they have a 2% take on the mining.  But 0.5% mining fee plus 0.001 equates to more than 2% if the autopayout is set to 0.05 (~$500).  I don't mind waiting for payouts to reduce the total fees to the pool, but at the same time, I don't want to have to wait a month.  I've currently pointed an S9 at your pool, just to try it out and compare to Slushpool.  Can you provide any more info on the payout fee scheme?

Thanks

This is a good question  we have not hit a block in a long time  I am not sure how jonny will handle payout fees. When we finally hit a block



everything will be OK, what are you worried about?

Hi, was this directed to my post, or another one?  It's difficult to tell.  However, the info on page one of this post is over 2 years old and very out of date.  Some of it conflicts with what is currently on the website.
I try to keep the first page and the site up to date.  If there are discrepancies, please let me know so I can address them.

It is a good question, and one that I missed.  The reason I had to change the amount charged per withdrawal was due to the network.  Initially I was charging 0.0001BTC per withdrawal; however, after a couple withdrawal transactions happened, I realized that the fee wasn't even coming close to covering the actual transaction cost.  Therefore, I changed it to 0.001BTC.  Even there it is barely covering costs (most recent withdrawal had a 0.00098BTC transaction fee).  I will adjust the fee based on what the network demands.

Since I send to multiple addresses in a single transaction for auto-payouts, I can turn that value down so that each miner isn't paying the 0.001BTC.  The way it is now punishes miners who are part of a multi-payout transaction.  I appreciate you pointing out the discrepancy and will adjust the auto-payout fees.

Edit: I changed the auto-payout fees to 0.0002BTC.  I will keep my eye on the network and fees in general and will update the pool accordingly.

Now we need to find a block Smiley
