Can you guys switch to 100% segwit support? Ive seen two of your blocks not supporting in the past 24 hours. When we are down to 5% left, every block counts. At this point your either on the train or off it, not point playing politics with 1% hashrate, which could very well make a difference in the next signal period.

I was pointing over 30GH at your pool, but will look elsewhere until I have confirmation that ALL your blocks will signal segwit from here on out.

You must have missed that last few news items. [1] [2] [3]

We've noticed that there has been some confusion about the meaning and workings of our SegWit support vote, so we think some clarification is in order.

  • The idea behind the vote is to give our miners the power to signal as if they were mining solo (only pools and solo miners can actually signal). That is, instead of forcing a decision of them, we gave each of them the right to decide independently. This vote was organized solely for the sake of fairness, and a hypothetical delay in SegWit activation would not benefit the pool or its operators in any way.
  • This is not a majority vote; on the contrary, it is fully proportional, as that is the only way to simulate the signaling of independent solo miners. The pool's signaling ratio will change constantly, based on each miner's vote and hash rate. Because of this, a miner voting 'Yes' contributes to SegWit activation exactly as much as if mining solo or at a pool signaling with 100% of their blocks.

TL;DR: 1. We are just respecting our miners' preferences. 2. Moving your miners to another signaling pool changes nothing (unless you explicitly chose to vote 'No' in your settings, of course).

Clueless!
Just a heads up...I just dumped another 500mh on your pool. www.litecoinpool.org


my buddy has a hosting deal with a few units left (or for sale)

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/sold-antminer-l3-250-mh-scrypt-miners-hosted-included-1802108

may as well do a plug here before they all sell out at $7.33 ltc prices Smiley


pre-paid...elec included....rent included.....available NOW Bitmain L3 250mh (pay and its turned on to your address)
I did the year plan...also includes PSU a done deal with the equip purchase complete....

and MOST important imho...if you L3 dies and needs to go back to china or fixed or whatever he will replace the hash till it gets back (he is that big)

I've been using renting with him and known him for more than a year.....been to his house met the family/dog ...saw the colo-hub place etc etc

we talk couple times a week

legit (see my trust rating ask around the forum)

The price is 2550.00 (100 bucks off thru monday) he might have 10 left...same price he was charging at the $4.15 ltc rate of a week or so back!

This means NO other costs...you plug for the L3's 0 electric.....use the calc below......and the L3 is available to ship or be turned on NOW

Do the math yourself using 0.077c kwh and this calc www.litecoinpool.org

I looked on eastshore and april 27th next batch and it was 1759..with shipping about 1800 bucks ...add a $150 psu from them that is 1950 add 50 bucks shipping
of unit that is 2000 usd....wait a month and lose 350 usd more or less at this over 7 buck price (you pay he turns on as soon as it hits) that is 2350

well worth the 200 bucks for the year plan ...just for the hash rate replacement if a bitmain board croaks

ALL my remaining NOW 3800mh will be on there...(and soon the 4 knc titans in basement) will be going there...my elec goes up to 13c kwh from 10c kwh and I can't justify the heat of house anymore


and LESS you think this is a hosting scam he will sell one to you w/o the hosting

anyway fun times in pow scrypt figured I'd toss it out there here is his bitcointalk thread again....give you guys first dibs maybe ....before they are gone


he is also the guy who makes the 4 point titan heatsink bracket replacement (10 bucks) so you can get rid of the klunky knc titan cube heatsink and put indv
small heatsinks on the indv dc/dc's ..again legit....you can use me as esrow if you wish to...

there are also deals for btc and x11 and other equip hosting etc ask him (no btc or x11 machines thou unless you supply to him)

man chump or champ we will see....my bet is over $6 buck LTC this all to work....thus jumped back into the scrypt pow pool Smiley

anyway ..just a shout out to the pool folk here.......before they all fly out the door (hosting or sold) ...me I grab'd 3 of them....

look at the thread above going fast

later

Hey all,

Shown up to the game super late. Everyone is using ASIC, running at light speed.

I was wondering has anyone that uses a pc, considered VCPU? 1core could safely fit 8 processors. I have an i3 so I'm going to test this out until my unit arrives.

To the pool operator, thanks! I love your pool, and wish more where as transparent and efficient as litecoinpool.

VCPU doesn't change the # of actual cores you have. are you referring to VMs VCPU?

you can but it might be a waste, id go for XMR or monero coin with that set up right now that coin goes for 20 bucks a coin and is mainly a cpu mining coin but as all ways your welcome to try that out on this pool. I'm not the  pool operator.....

I'll get to emailing later, in the meant time here is an update to
The issue.

Device 1 worker 1mines nonstop
Device 2 worker 2 mined until 200 shares
Device 3 worker 3 mined until 200 shares
Device 4 worker 4 mined until 200 shares

As an experiment I switched device 1 to operate
Worker #2 and it stopped at 400, 600, 800 shares

Question, started in the pool yesterday. I started 3 new workers today and they all
Quit after hitting 200 shares exactly. Any idea What would cause that.

No, I don't think I've seen what you describe before. If you need assistance send an email to support, and don't forget to include your username and a description of your hardware/software setup.

2nd question when someone finds a block, is that shared with all active miners
At the time or is there something different.

This is a PPS pool, not a proportional pool. This means that miners are rewarded based on the work they do (i.e. for every valid share they submit), not when/if a block is found.

how can I mine doge in litecoinpool? I've searched for configuration on the website but I found nothing

No configuration is needed, merged mining is taken care of automatically by the pool. The extra rewards, converted to LTC, are what makes a >100% PPS rate possible.

I see, thanks a lot

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.

I feel like people care more about the Litecoin network compared to Ethereum. Id guess a lot of miners only mined ETH for quick profit and didnt really care if it forked or anything.

EDIT: Or there were a lot more ETH miners so its possible the same number voted but it was a smaller percent of the ETH network.

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.
