Well there was 169% hour one hour before and 189% one hour after that 45% hour. I seriously consider stop publishing hourly stats as they only make people confused.
Of course we mine LTC when it's the most profitable. You just can't find the same number of blocks every day/hour/minute/second.
If you throw a dice with 1-6 numbers on it, you will get 3.50 result on average. But you will never actually throw 3.50 in one throw. Sometimes you throw 5 or 6, sometimes you throw 1 or 2. You understand that, don't you? In long-term average you will get 3.50, but average of three throws can be anywhere between 1.00 and 6.00.
Mining coins is no different. The shorter the timespan the more variance there will be. Guess what. If you check minute-by-minute stats you will find a lot of 0% minutes and some 3000% minutes. If you check second-by-second stats you will find mostly 0% seconds and the second when we find a LTC block will have 180,000%. You don't find a block every second. You don't find a block every minute. You don't find the same number of blocks every hour.
Never saw it hit 0% (probably would indicate you messed up), and I have definitely not seen it breach 3000%, or hell, 180,000%!! LMAO! Either you have a better insight on stats, and should provide similar data for miners on your pool, or you are a hell of an exaggerator.
Reading comprehension.
Of course you've never seen it. Only Terk can see minute-by-minute or second-by-second stats. And it if he DID publish them even more would freak out. WHAT?! 0%?
There is a fundamental misunderstanding around here about how mining even works. Coin mining (any coin) isn't some consistent thing like a nice, constant conveyer belt of cash. Just like actual gem mining, sometimes you hit a pocket (3000%). But most of the time you dig and get nothing (0%). THAT is why you look at the daily average.
TBH Terk, you should just do it a daily average and not hourly.
100% Agree. It confuses a good percentage of the crew.
