I'm amazed that so many miners have voted. I remember for the ethereum hard fork, pools that had voting, only had single digit percentage participation. They called that 100 percent consensus.

Why do only some blocks signal segwit support?

Not mining right now any Litecoin, checked my account on the pool, and noticed that I completely missed that voting

Just to clarify, voting has no effect for users that are not mining. As explained more in detail here, each miner's vote is weighted by their hash rate, so as to simulate the signaling of many independent solo miners.

Thanks for the link. Still new to cryptoworld and the learning curve is quite steep.

Is there gonna be a poll type bar chart or something to show results of your voting asking?

Curious what results would be your pool specific

I plan to publish some results when signaling starts, i.e. after the next difficulty retarget (expected in 1-2 days).

Clueless!
Just curious are miners actually voting in quantity?

So far, 81 users have voted. It's not a lot, but keep in mind that many miners do not check their account very often.

Just curious are miners actually voting in quantity? I just remember last summer when only a handful of miners actually voted on a notorious hard fork. It was like the rest didn't care. Do LTC miners care enough to vote? For the record I voted within minutes of the choice being offered.

Pool users can now express their vote on the upcoming SegWit soft fork.
Please refer to this page for the details: Litecoin 0.13.2 and SegWit support signaling

are you likely to update to the latest Litecoin core software?

If there are no major objections, certainly. Our pool software has already been updated to be segwit-compatible.

Your call but maybe you could mention this on the news section of your pool? Since the voting will be based on mining, letting the miners know which side their hash power will vote towards would be nice.

Originally my intention was to give each pool user the ability to vote for or against the soft fork. However, after a few weeks of regularly checking the forums and r/litecoin, I was unable to detect anything even remotely resembling the kind of opposition that there is against Bitcoin's soft fork, so I concluded that the Litecoin community as a whole agreed with coblee's vision on segwit, and set my idea aside.
Over the last few weeks I have received a few emails from pool users asking about the pool's stance on the issue, but again, none of them was suggesting to oppose the soft fork.
Still, now I am realizing that there is some interest in the topic, so, for the sake of correctness, I feel that giving each user the ability to vote may not be such a redundant feature after all. I'll try to implement this quickly and then post in the news section about it.


I think thats a great idea, even if everyone is for SegWit. Once setup the same basic code could be used for the next fork as well, Id guess.

Im personally more neutral if not slightly for SegWit but Im sure there are some who are 100% for or against it and would like to know where to point there hash accordingly.

thanks for all you do.

the pool is lagging ,my miners get disconnected every 5 min. dou you have any reports.

Other miners appear to be doing fine, no lag or disconnections. If you want me to investigate further, please send an email to support with your username, software/hardware information and the server you're connecting to.

thanks, glad to hear your pool is ready.

pooler,

do you plan to support segwit?

From a technical viewpoint, our pool software is ready to handle Segwit.

If you are asking whether I personally support Segwit, I currently prefer to remain neutral. If the activation will really be at 75%, we probably won't have a say anyway, given that the top 3 Chinese pools control over 3/4 of the hash power.
