Yes, add more hashing power Wink

He's exactly right though, if you want to keep up, you have to add more hash.

Unfortunately so - at least if you want to maintain the same average take home earnings. I was hoping this slump in price would squeeze out some hashing power but noooooo everyone has to add moooore. By everyone I mean the mega miners who don't really care about such pitiful mortal problems such as operating expenses.

I have corrected all power, ventilation & added a firewall to my 10 miners. I feel like I have finally isolated the optimal running conditions for my miners. I am averaging 140 th/s per day and not having any disconnections for past 2 weeks since I get everything straightened out at my colo. I have been mining now for 3 months too.

My question is a slushpool question.

Slushpool factors affecting rewards:
1) Look in my pool (like you said it's a bonus if it happens, but only negative impact in short term)
2) Pool hash rate (if hash is rising then difficulty, difficulty mining rises as well and causes decline in rewards over time)
3) Total hash rate of btc network (rises as difficulty rises & decreases rewards over time)(ONLY factor which has permanent affet in profitability of hardware)

Outside of these 3 points above, are there any controllable ways for me to maximize pool efficiency in slushpool? Along with all miners (I suppose) I am looking to understand if there are any other ways I can decrease the "Expected Payout Period" or rest assured I am doing everything that I can based on assumptions above.

Sorry for long thread boys.... ask ?s first than forgiveness afterwards

Dear US east-coast miners, we have resolved recent connectivity issue which affected only AWS part of the pool infrastructure. Everything is fully operational now. We apologize for the inconveniences.

Good to know, was just wondering what was wrong with my little farm.
Thanks for the update.

Much appreciated. I was beginning to wonder if the problem was on my end or yours. Luckily my laziness saved me a lot of needless network troubleshooting. Woohoo! Cheesy

After a very high good luck period ( 200%/250% for last 10 blocks) , I wonder if shutting down the miners for 6/8 hours is not a bad idea to gain electricity cost...As it seems to usually fall down just after. Huh

I've been mining Bitcoin on Slush from around middle January. I see that the Namecoin rewards in my report just says "Processing". In that history it looks like the last Namecoin was processed at block 41647 on 2018-01-12 10:28, days before I started mining on Slush.

What gives? Why is there no processing taking place? Why is there no Namecoin payout?

Any insight into this would be appreciated.

We are currently experiencing some difficulties with the exchange it takes a while before the rewards gets processed. For technical reasons we process the NMC rewards only every few weeks. We are sorry for the inconvenience. Either way, NMC value is quite low nowadays - unfortunately.

Assuming you have solid internet connection and your miners are running @ full hash, is there really a formula for maximizing efficiency in slushpool? I have been using slushpool a little over a month and am wondering if anybody using slushpool follows a formula to determine if their current server in slushpool is maximizing their returns?

Thanks

ok, so around 16h after the last block that brang you to 100% fill bar ( but you have to know it ! ) seems to be the only way.

Well no, you could be at 99% and have all 99% confirmed.

But 16h after you hit 100% is the longest it could take.

Well it could be 17-18 hours due to a long period of not finding blocks solved, but 16 hours is a pretty good guestimate as it will be just a little bit longer than that if everything played out right and every block was solved at exactly 10 minutes.

There is no way to predict exactly when it will reach it's 100 confirmations. As each confirmation is a block that was created on the bitcoin network. Since it is a random event, there is no way to predict it. But for the sake of argument, the blocks should be found at 10 minute intervals, so plan on 1000 minutes for a block to reach maturity.

Yeah I usually give it a bit more than 16 hours...just a rough guesstimate that's pretty damn close for government work!
