Topic: [DEAD] DeepBit.net PPS+Prop,instant payouts, we pay for INVALID BLOCKS too - page 262. (Read 1601343 times)

So it shows that you had shares in THAT block and no reward ?
Can you give me UTC date/time of that block or it's total shares number ? And it was Proportional mode ?

I had that problem too and it was dismissed outright by Tycho as if the issue was on my end, but I still don't understand that scenario.  I still haven't seem a satisfactory reply.

rr not the case. It shows I clearly submitted shares.

I give PPS 24h risk run. I don't think it's going to be worse than my current rewards i receive.

Forgive me if somebody already posted this.

Good job reporting the situation accurately.  Kudos to the author.

you always very comforting lol!
thanks i was just worried that there might have been a problem.
yes im very shaky ever since the insane increases in difficulty

That difficulty increase has already occurred?  I made more today than in any single day in the past.  I will have to check out Bitcoin Watch after this to verify (I won't post about it explicitly unless I am posting for another reason, so go verify for yourself ).

We have a long block, don't worry.
As you may see, our luck was 42% better since difficulty step, so this block will return it to average :)

uhh its been 3 hours now and i have been minig for the past 24 hours, but my balance hasent updated once since those three hours.
i also noticed the statistic page remains the same.
is this a humongous block? i figures @550 ghz , they wouldnt be a problem

 Its on the homepage http://deepbit.net under pps rate

how do you know what the "fixed amount" per share is when opting for the per share payout option?  I've searched everywhere, and seen that it has changed, but what is the current amount and how is it calculated?

There was a ~40% difficulty increase recently, so what each share is worth went down. (from the way I understand it)

You are correct.  I never noticed that stat at the bottom until now.  The average is 16 minutes, but I an quite sure that the median is a lot lower (a nearly two hour round skews the average ... median time would be an interesting addition).

EDIT: I corrected where I wrote mean, but intended to use the word median if that wasn't clear in context.

It's 16m checkout the statistics page on deepbit. But I will say they have been coming fast this evening.


9/10 its your internet I have miners that do that from time to time but they run from mobile broadband dongles and the quality of service sucks

Did you run a ping test, traceroute; ask the pool operator to run a reverse traceroute [have them run a traceroute to your IP address].  They may not have time to do this, but you may find issues by trying other internet sites that run reverse traceroutes for you.

Giganews offers one and I am sure DSL reports has tools for this too.  http://www.giganews.com/performance.html#traceroute

Are you running QoS on your router?  Can you?  Give priority to traffic on port 8332.

What happened, i went from .5 btc every hour to .08~ using PPS so i thought it should be steady :|

Anybody know why I get a connection problem every 3 seconds or so? I'm using two workers. Located in California.

It us finding blocks FAR FASTER THAN ONE EVER 15-20 MINUTES.

Well yes in a pinch but there's lots more variables to consider like performance of your hardware/network/miner and not to mention your and the pools luck so it could go either way its a gamble you have to take. But PPS I think is more for someone that doesn't think the risk is worth it and wants a steady income. Proportional is more of a risk to the miner as it can be a bit of a gamble but the charges are lower.

If you want my advise if you mining at anything over 150Mhs I'd stick with proportional because since deepbit had the surge of miners from slush its eating blocks for breakfast. I haven't done the math but at a quick glance I'd say deepbit finds a block on average every 15 - 20 mins

Like I said your payout per block will be smaller but you get more payouts. but I'm sure others will have their own take on things this is just mine. Unfortunately there's no formula for luck


Interesting opinion but think about it how many shares would you of generated in less than a min ? I think it doesn't matter that sometimes you may get nothing for a really short round considering that a 360Mhs miner would submit 5/6 hashes in one minute. And if you none in a round its more than likely that round lasted under 45 seconds

Deepbit pays 0.00041032137601209 per hash so in that none round you would of made 0.00246192825607 if you submitted 6 shares in the short round. In a 5 hour period on prop I earned 0.52055329 btc from the short rounds (under 5 mins to find a block). But overall I earned on prop was 1.1023250900 BTC switching to PPS I would of made around 1.15 BTC. So theres not a lot in it really.

Yes, I think so, because there will be to many rounds where you won't have had a chance to submit any share and you get paid nothing with proportional.  I see several "None" rounds even though I dow as having submitted shares (during short rounds) and got no partner at 370Mh/s.
