Topic: [BTG]Official Bitcoin Gold mining pool btgpool.pro (Read 5879 times)

All pools pays to miners only for new blocks. Btgpool.pro dont pay for sitting on pool. New block - reward to miners. No blocks = no reward for miners.  BTG network provide very small amount of blocks and most of the blocks taken by pool hopers.

Next time think what you mine and check usual luck on all pools. Noone still your coins! Just issue with "no new blocks" thats all. Hard to find new block. Same for ZEC with 500 msol/s network hard to find new block for pools with less then 10 msol/s

Its not the coin, its the POOL you are using. Many pools steal 30 to 70 % of your mined coins, mostly the "free" ones take 50 to 70% of your coins, you don't even see it.

Bitcoin Gold has frozen @block 514279 for over 2 hours...

Block 514280 processed, took 2 hours and 17 minutes to progress and it was Mining Pool Hub that found the next block, amazing !!

So I jumped back on to see if my negative balance would sort itself out that way.
It depends on how you look at it, what I was earning was being deducted off their negative balance.
So it was sorting itself out by them stealing from me.

Hi JMSBTC, what pool is this you found please?

Hi All,

Problem solved, i have found a pool and tested for 3 days that matches the Pool.Pro Calc calculator figures and that works perfect.
All these other pools must have some problem under the hood, or as others have said, something more sinister going on.

Thanks...

I have a theory just from experience, i might be wrong but here goes...

When i was mining at Pool.Guru i noticed that the round progress bar hit 100%, what i also noticed was that if someone disconnected from the pool their shares were removed from the round progress bar.
In other words if a miner had generated 25% of the work for that round and disconnected from the pool before the block was found the progress bar would show now 75%, more miners would leave and the
progress bar would drop further. I would assume that all these pools are pretty much the same under the hood.

It seems that what work has been done in the pool seems to disappear as miners come and go??...
Because everyone is chopping and changing pools and losing what work they have done this could be why we are getting nowhere. Perhaps picking a pool and sticking with it might be the answer?


Again just a theory but what do you think?

Thanks...






 

Or pool.gold isn't reporting them correctly again intentionally or unintentionally.
They "lost" 3 a few weeks ago. I'm still waiting for a response here as my balance still shows in the negative and their twitter account stated it would sort itself out. Well it hasn't yet... I'm not mining there until my balance is corrected, plus they have probably over 51% of the processing power.

I also noticed the same thing today. what is going on?

Hi, just thought i would throw this in here...

So there has been roughly 144 blocks today (time of post) available to be found. In roughly 24 hours the top 2 pools being Pool.pro has found ZERO and Pool.gold has found THREE...
That leaves 141 blocks found by various others, (probably solo farms?...)

Where the heck do you have to go to stand a chance of getting some blocks a day??

I hate to say it but i am beginning to think that home mining is already dead for BTG, but i thought that was the whole point of BTG?

Thanks...

I'm still waiting on a response about my worker stats. No I'm not installing telegram, use the forum so others can see the history.
I know it's the holidays but dedicated people would check in.
In the meantime, pool.gold is fsked with negative balances and blocks that were missing,.
SO I am givving IVTCoin a try.
Otherwise I'm beginning to think all the pools are thieves.

Dude you are taking all our shares for yourself? I mined for like 8 hours and got 0.000 BTG. What the heck. Here is my BTG address so you can check for yourself. Now you can send me my coins for what I mined:

GXCHezLUKEVFkFBCfNERNefmDiqmtqcRwe

http://btgpool.pro/workers/GXCHezLUKEVFkFBCfNERNefmDiqmtqcRwe

That probably depends on when they find a block, and how long they time their share system. The more time goes by with no shares submitted the less you earn off the shares you have submitted.
Most likely after 8 hours (or less) of no submissions you won't see anything. It probably is even less than that since blocks are being found and old shares from past blocks start to deprecate. Pretty much any work done off old blocks that were not found by the pool won't all go to the next found block, if the pool finds that "next" block.

Ahh... I see.  I stopped mining.  Will I still get rewarded once they find a block since I contributed 8,xxx shares?  Sorry for the n00b questions!

They haven't found a block in 24 hours so you wouldn't have any pending balance or payouts.

Been mining over 24hrs on this pool and have over 8,000 shares submitted.  No pending balance, no payouts, no nothing.  It shows my workers and shares, but 24 hrs without anything even pending is a bit absurd.  I'd try to contact them directly for help, but I am not giving out my phone number to use their stupid chat support system.

I have been mining there for over 12 hours and my worker is not displaying stats at all such as avg hashrate. No 30 minute or 3 hour windows.
The wallet address I supplied is valid and shows on the workers page it's hashrate/shares and the efficiency just fine.
I can't adjust the payout threshold either because it is showing an IP that doesn't belong to me.
Clicking on the myip link shows a completely different IP than what is in the box displayed.
Entering my IP gives an invalid IP.
Am I missing something here ? what are your thoughts?

i have same situation! SCAM this page... after 8h hashrate 2000k 0.0013

I have mining 8h hashrate 2000k and my balance after 0.0013

adress ?

NEW SERVER‼️ We moved our BTGpool.pro pool to brand new dedicated server. More power, more luck - more blocks. 😀 Please join our pool now with NO FEE! Please check your miners if they working fine with new eu.btgpool.pro server.

Finally a thread talking about this, I thought I was alone.... I've been mining on BTGpool.pro for more than 10 days and never got half of what the calculator says (following fluctuation). I was paid on average around 0.02/day while the calculator would indicate around 0.04-0.06 for that period  .

Yesterday I switched over to pool.gold to see if it was pool related and guess what, same thing. Calculator's been showing around 0.06 for the last 3 days and still I only got 0.024. There is definitely something wrong here. Even Whattomine suggest I should get around 0.07/day at 2.5kh/s. What's going on... Who am I mining for? Ditching BTG now. My hardware will be better used elsewhere.

I just started mining 24 hours ago on btgpool.pro and am also not getting near the coins compared to my hash power.

My 3 hour average is 1.12 Ksol/s, which is also on target with my miner stats and has only been varying by less than 10% in the last 24 hours.  I currently only have 0.0111 when the calculator says I should have 0.0266.

I think I'm going to switch over to Vertcoin soon...

just joined the pool today...

Some news about it ?

Hi All,

I am going to provide a bit of data for a week and a bit (Sun today to next Sun) to try and see what is going on with rewards.
I know hashrate and difficulty/luck play a part and changes things but I am working rough so bear with me.

At the moment +/- throughout the week...

Pool.gold has around 23% of the hashrate (16 Msol/s / 68 Mol/s)
Pool.pro has around 9% of the hashrate (6 Msol/s / 68 Msol/s)

Pool.gold 23% of 144 blocks per day = should hit 33 blocks per day
Pool.pro 9% of 144 blocks per day = should hit 14 blocks per day

I am going to assume that on average...

Pool.gold hits 25 blocks per day
Pool.pro hits 10 blocks per day

Again roughly 25+10 takes me pretty close to what the BTGPool.pro calculator suggests, (earnings per day).

                   Pool.gold     Pool.pro
Sun Blocks        19               3

Mon Blocks        13              7

I am not going to carry on, it's quite clear to me that both these pools are just simply not hitting enough blocks to get anywhere near the earnings per day according to what the calculator says.
It's not just these two pools but the same story anywhere you mine BTG.

Thanks...

they steal! i mined for 12hrs and got 0.004 ... that speaks all. I joined telegram group and got banned for asking this questions SCAM!

Hi @ForikGTI

Please could you tell me if you are an admin or related to the btgpool.pro pool? in any way?
If so all I want to know is why the btgpool.pro calculator is showing one figure and in reality I am mining 50% less as mentioned above your post.

You might be able to give me a plausible reason for this or explain something I did not consider.
Your input would really help me make a decision on what to do moving forward.

Thanks...

We have added Asia and USA servers for our pool. Please send message to group or ask  admins for more info.

Hi, thanks for the reply.

So you are 35% down, I am at least 50% missing, anyone else want to chime in and tell us if you are experiencing the same thing?
At the time of writing .pro (5Msol/s) has not found a block in 13 hours and .gold (15Msol/s) has not found one in 9 hours and those two
pools currently have the most miners...

These 2 pools equate to 20Msol/s (network 95Msol/s), where the heck is the rest of the network hashrate coming from because the
remaining pools don't make up the difference at all...

Solo?

Cloud?

Thanks...

Mining profit calculation is no magic:

Let mh = my hashpower, gh= network hashpower, n= number of blocks per hour  ,  r= block reward then
 Gross profit per day = 24*n*r*mh/gh
for btg with my 3 rigs with 9.3 Kh it is  24*6*12.51*9.3K/90M = 0.186 btg/day

calculating electricity costs and converting to fiat currencies is trivial.

The thing is pools do not play fair, especially for coins with little community activity like btg in its current phase. I have been pointing my rigs to pool.gold for several days now, The rigs have been up and running almost 99% and the sum of my paid and immature balances show a gain less than 0.12 per day it means a 35% shortage which can not be justified as total network hashrate have never gone so far and has been lower than 90M  in most periods in the last couple of days. Obviously this miner, pool.gold,  is cheating.

I have noticed another phenomenon that convinced me they are cheaters. The other day their stats showed their huge (almost 20% of the total network ) hashpower has mined nothing for 7+ hours it means 42 blocks. For this to happen you should hit a bad beat with 8.5*10e-5 when you have a rough 20% luck. In real life, this 'accidents' happen, of course, but when we are dealing with suspected behaviors of a pool operator, well, what do you think?

Hi,
So I have been mining elsewhere for around 36 hours with similar results, it is quite clear to me that this calculator http://calc.btgpool.pro/ is incorrect to the tune of at least 50%.
If you use the calculator take your daily $ value and cut it in half, that is what you will make per day mining Bitcoin Gold.

I am assuming that it's the calculator and not something else, these are just my findings. if anyone else can confirm or does not agree please let me know.

Thanks...

Hi, btgpool.pro
I have been mining with you for around 9 days, i have noticed that i am mining half of what the calculator shows, I have 2.4ksol/s hash rate, this is shown perfectly in the statistics of this pool.

The btgpool.pro calculater shows that i should be able to mine 0.04 +/- a day but regularly i am mining 0.02 and some days not even that, am i missing something?, is there anyone with a similar hashrate that can advise if this is right or not?.

Thanks...

I started mining 30 minutes but it shows 0 workers.  How long before it shows up on statistics?
Thanks

I mined for a few hours and got nothing , can you tell me whats wrong with this, please ?

Hi,

I have coins there but didn't realize minimum payout was .01 - are you going to lower that or make it user-selectable ?
