Is there anything going on at AntPool that is effecting luck that we should know about?

I don't wish to bitch about bad luck, but we seem to be having an unusual stretch of it.  Last night we had a period of over 8 hours with only 2 blocks found.

I know recently there have been issues with a DDOS attacker which I don't know if it is still going on or weather it would effect luck.  Did they ever
catch that bastard?

Also I know for a while they were using a satellite Inetrnet connection at one of the big sites in China because the primary wired connection was lost somehow.
Was this connection problem ever fixed and does that effect the performance of AntPool.

So I guess my main question is are we just having a stretch of bad luck, or is there a reason for it, and a plan to fix it soon.  Is there something else going on?

I like AntPool but I am just use to seeing it perform a lot better.  If there is a problem that effects my earnings, I naturally want to know about it.  We all do, and I think it is only fair that we are informed..

On the Stats page in Antpool, there's a Lottery Ranking tab and there's 2 entries on it already.
Can you give us an update about the Lottery feature?

Lottery Payment Feature is for future announcement item...


The miners are running

well you know who you can thank for this...  Cheesy seriously, you'll probably never know why this is so funny.

as to an issue related to antpool... i ventured over there to see what has changed in the last few month... wtf is lottery in the payment system. obviously pplns is quite self explanatory, but i have no idea how a lottery payment system works for payout. i get the general idea of a lottery, but as applicable to this particular scenario i'm left a little puzzled to the details. any idea if this function actually works and how much the "jackpot" is?

what is this percent ?

and else interested me , what according to add new block ?

That percentage shows you how how many shares it took to solve that block vs the expected amount of shares it should have taken.  In this case, it took 80,219,210,336 shares.  Expected number of shares to solve a block is 47,610,564,513.  It took 168.49% (Bitmain, you might want to check your math on your page since you show 168.47%) of expected shares to solve the block.

Why ? This halving bad is as i know
Well, we all know what will happen - at block 420,000 the reward for finding a block will go from 25BTC to 12.5BTC.  What we don't know is what the price will be and what effect the halving will have on the market.

Thanks but i cant good understand share (
A share is a unit of work that your S3 submits to the pool.  The pool uses these shares to calculate how much of the reward you get when the pool finds the block.

Even but 100% was that my s3 was raning.

What do i ? That i will get 0.004btc ?
You need to understand how this whole thing works.  When you look at mining calculators, they are providing you an expected value.  They simply say, "Given the probability of finding X shares in Y time, you would expect to earn Z coins".  The simplified version of the formula they all use is:
Code:
25 / (Network Diff * 2^32 / hash rate per second / 86400) = number of coins you earn in a day

Code:
25 / (47610564513 * 2^32 / 440000000000 / 86400) = 0.00464776 BTC


please tell me, what is above quotes, what is this number? 25,2^32,86400
Here are the numbers explained...
25 = number of coins for the block reward.
47610564513 = current network difficulty
2^32 = number of attempts to find a difficulty 1 share
440000000000 = hashes per second of an S3
86400 = seconds in a day

what is share ?
Share is what a pool uses to determine how much work you have done.  Your miner submits hashes (i.e. shares) to the pool.  AntPool pays you for your shares using the PPLNS system.

He explained it all I believe.   Only thing might not be there is 25 is the current amount of BTC you get when solving a single block.

Needless to say google "PPS Bitcoin Pool" this is what Antpool.  After reading that you should understand the payment system.  Go here at bottom to find current luck https://www.antpool.com/poolStats.htm  .  Again read about "PPS Bitcoin Pool" to explain how it works.

Antpool is still not stable at the moment.  You may want to set a back up or temporary hash else where to avoid hash power loss.

it caused by ddos attack or something else?
i watch here that antpool using distributed proxy nodes :

it is effective now?

The active worker count has dropped very sharply but the hash rate is still around the same. I'm starting to wonder if the numbers are being fudged  Undecided I know I have a negative tone to my writing but come on. The hash hovers between 50-60 Ph/s and this was with a reported average of about 300,000 workers; we are now down to 56,680 but no real change in the hash Huh Not to mention we no longer compare to F2Pool in the luck aspect. I haven't seen any increase in per share pay so I'm at a lost.

What happeNs anpool sertificat ?

I cant enter my account

I am getting a certificate error, too.

Ditto. I am sure it will be fixed.

I have an existing page already loaded up on my PC (Chrome browser), and when I hit refresh, it did not complain about the cert.  Looks like a valid cert from GoDaddy.  The error is from my phone on the Lastpass browser.  Chrome on phone is also fine.

Maybe I would get an error on my PC if I deleted my cache.

I hope there isn't a MITM attack...
