### CWI-MINING - CWIGM | POOLS

hi all ...

as many of you are aware - we have been working on the next revision for CWIgm ... a few more bugs to squash and we will have the build ready for the next test ...

in conjunction with the release - we have also setup another two pools to accommodate the algorithms that CWIgm-0.9.9 will have additional to the two algos it already has in CWIgm-0.9.8 ...

the algos contained in - and in addition to are ...

- skunkhash ( current )
- tribus ( current )
- timetravel10 ( CWIgm-0.9.9 )
- jha ( CWIgm-0.9.9 )

the two additional pools to the CWI-Pool system are ...

- CWI-Pool SweepStakeCoin ( active | beta )
- CWI-Pool Magnatum ( active | alpha )

any miner can be used to mine at our pools - and we welcome honest and constructive feedback ... so dont hesitate to setup up an account - setup up workers in the account - and mine ...

most of the basic details are in the menu item of the pool ... from name and ticker symbol - to lodiff and hidiff ports required to mine on stratum.chainworksindustries.com ...

pool bad luck??? ... and 'very' bad luck according to you? ...

i count 16blocks as of writing this - and the CWI-Pool SweepStakeCoin solving many more blocks than 'normal' ... ie - than yesterday ...

how is that bad luck compared to yiimp - who had 1.6hs and about half of those blocks? ...

i understand only what i see - and i cant see how you can consider that 'bad luck' ...

i hope your numbers increase mate ... but honestly - i cannot see how you can come to these assumptions based on the facts that are prevalent in the pool and wallet ... im watching the wallet now - and a block is sent through almost every 30seconds ( blockchain ) so there is literally a block solved via mining ( PoW ) or staking ( PoS ) approximately every 30seconds ... if we are getting a number like that on our pool in PoW alone - then this cannot be considered 'bad luck' in any sense of the term ...

btw - ALL our pools are pplns ( Pay Per Last 'N' Shares )  - which means the longer you stay on the pool and the higher the difficulty of your share - ( and the higher the hashrate of course ) the better chance of solving a block and a better payout for those that stay on the pool ...

let us know how you go over the next day or so ...

I know conditions are always changing... But I used to get very accurate results between reported HR, calculated HR, shares, diff, nethash, estimations and real earnings on CWIs pools, this time it is not the case at all and that's why I try to figure out what happened.
Also I see the pool has a very bad luck, combined to other parameters it may explain why earnings dropped.
Will still mine for some days and see how things goes.

have you seen the nethash and pool hash lately? ...

thats why ...

dont expect the same results when the hashrate jumps by 1.6gh ... that will never work out ...

which is what frustrates me the most about these ridiculous calculations that a LOT of miners do - and rely on the calculations that are completely inaccurate for a small network ... IF the nethash is consistent - the diff will remains the same and the rewards will vary only slightly ... that NEVER happens ... nethash and poolhash and miners ALL change the variables attached to how many blocks any one pool or another can solve - and the 'luck' each pool has in solving these blocks ...

so the 1.2gh yesterday is actually currently 4.6gh at the time of writing this ...

so always watch for these factors when assuming you will get the same coins in the same conditions - because conditions are NEVER the same ...

Good news, however my earnings are ridiculous now 
Went to 500 sweep/hour from 2200 yesterday.
Diff is higher but cannot explain a such result IMO.

### CWI-POOL SWEEPSTAKECOIN

hi all ...

we have been working as best as we can to on the CWI-Pool SweepStakeCoin - and our work has come with some poitive results ...

it seems to have brought the pool / database back - without the requirement of s full 'reset' of the db and wallet ...

we have brought the pool back online - but are keeping it in alpha for the time being - until we can be sure that it is stable ...

so please resume the mining when you can - as its open to public use again with NO loss of coins in the corruption ... we appreciate your patience with this ... its great to know that miners and testers alike are helping build this pool and the entire CWI-Pool system into a stable mining platform ... a long way to go - but we are slowly getting there ...

#crysx

no worries ...

we have been working on a fix for this issue so we DONT have to reset ...

there looks like a way to do it - without blowing away the database and wallet ...

fingers crossed ... and we have full backups of everything - 'just in case' ...

#crysx

Thanks for the clear update

as ive stated ... a reset for the pool system ( wallet ) - and database ( db ) ...

the process is simple - but destructive ... the issue we are suffering is a rare issue we have been encumbered with when the mpos system recognizes a 'potential' double spend ... its NOT a double spend - its the db allocating two areas of the rows / columns to ONE piece of data ... which mpos sees as TWO payments - therefore a 'possible' double spend ...

mpos has had an issue with this a LONG time ago - and has supposedly fixed this ... this is one of the rare times its reared its ugly head - and there is no valid 'fix' for this except to 'delete and restart the db as well as the wallet' ...

so when these two areas of the pool are 'reset' - ie started from scratch again - ALL data contained in the db is reset to zero - and the wallet is a new wallet created with different address which mpos requires to function ... thats what i mean by reset ...

the current wallet and stratum are both running as they should be ... but when the database becomes corrupt with this sort of error - the only 'fix' known so far ( and no one else has come forward with ANY other fix for this issue ) is to delete the db and wallet - and start over ... this will 'reset' the counter / blocks / setup for the pool and wallet as well ... so its like starting a new pool afresh ...

thats a reset ...

and its also the LAST resort for any pool operator - as it means we have to go through this process of removing coins / putting users through this process just to restart ... if there was an easier way - we would do it ... there isnt ... we HAVE to get you to manually move your coins off this wallet - before its deleted ...

the 'reset' will ONLY occur IF we cannot find another resolve ...

thats why we say your coins are 'safe' because the wallet itself is not corrupt - and is still functional ... and as far as we can see - the chain is fast and solid ...

hi, what do you mean by "reset" ? to me thats a vitalik term, meaning you will reset the errors exploited in the chain. but YOU dont control the sweep chain (or maybe you do now) so how would that work? i was thinking the crazy params would cause issues, has that come true?
Or do you mean there was a fork, and THEPOOL was on wrong one? im confused... "reset" ? cause ya blockchain=no coins are ever lost really...
im loyal to the pools as always, just wondering what your meant.
thx!

no worries ...

it will be up again - but we need to iron out a few issues first ...

this testing is imperative for the stability of the pool long term ...

working on it now - it seems like it will require a reset - which means ALL coins need to be removed ...

#crysx

Thanks for the heads up on SWEEP pool. Was enjoying mining it while it was up. 

### CWI-POOL SWEEPSTAKECOIN

hi all ...

an issue has been detected with the CWI-Pool SweepStakeCoin - and as a precautionary measure - mining has been stopped for the time being ...

please remove ALL your coins from the pool - as there may be a full reset being done within the next day if the issue cannot be resolved before then ...

we will keep the pool in alpha designation and will continue to test before a full reset is committed ... this means that ALL mining will stop ( including our own ) on the CWI-Pool SweepStakeCoin and we will continue to work on the issue at hand ...

this is what testing is all about - and you are ALL helping a huge amount with this ...

NO COINS are lost or locked ... so please wait till all the coins in your account are confirmed - then transfer them out to your external wallets ...

ANY coins left in the wallet that is not transferred WILL be lost if a full reset of the pool and db is done ( as the old wallet is destroyed ) ... so please move ALL coins you have to another wallet as soon as possible ...

### CWI-POOL SWEEPSTAKECOIN

hi all ...

as a lot of you have seen - a number of projects under ChainWorks Industries (CWI) have started to surface ...

one of the most recent is CWIgm miner application - which is an application that we ( CWI ) have been building for our own private mining with theFARM ... over the coming weeks - there will be a newer beta to test and this will have a number of new features to boot - as well as two extra algos - timetravel10 and jha ...

this brings us to the core reason for this post - the CWI-Pool system ... a number of things have been worked on with the CWI-Pool system as a whole - which include the addition of a few new pools and the recode of the CWI-Stratum to cater for the new coin CWI-Coins have recently acquired - SweepStakeCoin ...

the JHA algo for SweepStakeCoin is an unusual one in that it has a different way of communication with the CWI-Stratum than the other more 'standard' algorithms like X11 sCrypt or QUARK ... as such - the CWI-Stratum had to have some code changes to cater for the way the algo communicates ...

the result of our testing so far is that the recode is functional - and seems to be performing well ... which means that the CWI-Pool SweepStakeCoin will be moved to beta some time this week ...

if miners would like to mine on the pool - and start testing for capacity and performance - please do ... the more the merrier ...

we will keep it in alpha designation for the next few days - until we are satisfied that all is completely well with the pool ...

ANY miner than has the jha algo integrated - should work ... we are working on the integration of the jha algo into CWIgm-0.9.9 also - and the miner will be locked to our CWI-Pool SweepStakeCoin so that further testing of the miner and pool can be maintained ...

Please let us know your experiences with both our CWI-Pool SweepStakeCoin and CWigm Miner in the respective threads ...

#crysx

this is the 'umbrella' thread ...

ie - the thread that pretty much has the overview of all the projects ...

its far outdated - and because we have had so much work to do in the rest of the projects - we have not updated it as we should have been doing ...

this will change the moment we get a break form the other projects ...

we have acquired another coin - sweepstakecoin ... we have created more pools ... we have created a miner that rivals most on the market today which is a feat in itself - and its only a few weeks old ... we have sorted a few algos that we are considering - and testing for the upgrades to the current coins we have ... plus much more ... all will be updated in good time ...

in the meantime - mining is fun ... if it is anything else to you - then we have only one thing to say - MAKE IT FUN ...

#crysx

Reading about things like this makes me want to learn more about mining

yup ...

if there is unscheduled work to be done on the CWI-Pool system - it will ...

but not usually as long as 10mins unless we are doing work on the stratum or os itself ...

#crysx

Signatum kicked me out for a few (10) minutes. Now it's back online.

which one? ...
