What is the best place to buy hashpower to run on KanoPool?
Well you can only buy hashpower to run solo of course.I'd highly suggest you stay right away from MRR - had a few complaints to me about sending hash rate from MRR.
Alas in all cases it's either been a problem at their end, or miners connecting directly to the pool with banned firmware.
The complaints flared up when MRR wouldn't reimburse them for hashes not sent to the pool,
which, to be blunt, is a scam.
Cost for hash rate there was ridiculously high,
and since the number of hashes you get determines the chances of you getting a block,
overpaying for hash rate is simply reducing your chances of getting a block.
The issues with FuckHash are a long history of scamming and lying about the rewards for miners.
While I certainly don't like them, and certainly would not trust them for spending a lot on a large amount of hash rate,
alas they are the most reliable for buying hash rate at the moment.
Thank you Kano! That is what I remember, and appreciate about you is your honest information. Thank You!

What make/model of miner?
How long has it been running?
Does it use modified firmware or Braiins?
1166 proHow long has it been running?
Does it use modified firmware or Braiins?
stock os, no custom firmware
2 days running
Or, are you overriding the pools difficulty setting?
no
Well most miners take an hour to actually get an average close to what they are really doing.
If you are running any 3rd party firmware, and the pool isn't blocking it, they are also taking a % of your hash rate.
The workers page on the pool gives lots of details about each miner and the invalids,
and Help->Stats explains a lot of that page if you are logged in.

no 3rd party f/w
invalids between 0.04% and 0.07%
If the miner is constantly reporting higher, then there's something wrong with it's reporting.
Only other thing I can think of is it's sending hashes somewhere else that makes up the difference.

My asic shows 81T, but on kano it reports 72T.
What happened to the other 9 hash?

The work diff has no effect on your chance of finding a solo block.
When solo mining, the pool's work diff ensures it provides regular feedback, so that the hash rate the pool shows has low variance.
If you set it too high, the hash rate on the pool will jump all over the place and effectively be meaningless.
The option to set it high on a solo account, is in case you do a rental that requires a high diff before it will work.
The only other use for setting the diff on solo (or pplns) is to set a higher starting diff than the pool default of 8190,
if your miners normally run much higher i.e. so they don't send a bunch of 'hi' ignored shares when they connect.
In all cases, once the pool corrects the diff after you connect, the pool's diff is the best diff to use.

Unless you are running small USB stick miner just leave suggested diff alone. The pool and miners work together to quickly assign the best value. The diff target is aimed at the pool & miner working at 18 shares per-minute.

I've just ordered fan emulators for antminers, there is plenty of them on the market.
I have one more question about worker diff in solo mining. Is setting this parameter have any sense on solo mining? At the moment, its calculated by pool and its 6500, is that number for solo mining should be changed depend on hardware I'm using?

Since I'm not sure exactly how this works on a technical level right now (might have slipped my memory): is the mining software / firmware used communicated through Stratum v2 and / or could it be spoofed? How do you make sure that someone pointing hashpower to your pool is running a tested / 'known working' software stack?...

I will try to buy fan emulators as I'm running immersion cooling so I need to "cheat" original firmware that fans are still there. 
The cable usually gives you 2 pulses per revolution so if you want to emulate 500RPM you just need to provide a 1kHz square wave. You can get that from a cheap Arduino clone and a few lines of code such as:
Code:
void setup() {
pinMode(0, OUTPUT);
}
void loop() {
digitalWrite(0, HIGH);
delay(1); // wait 1ms
digitalWrite(0, LOW);
delay(1); // wait 1ms
}
pinMode(0, OUTPUT);
}
void loop() {
digitalWrite(0, HIGH);
delay(1); // wait 1ms
digitalWrite(0, LOW);
delay(1); // wait 1ms
}
If it should be cheaper, you could also get such a square wave from a 555 timer IC, although I doubt that the time invested to build and test it is worth it over an affordable microcontroller devkit.
Lastly, easiest might be to use fan cable extensions and have actual fans running outside of the immersion cooling tank.

I will try to buy fan emulators as I'm running immersion cooling so I need to "cheat" original firmware that fans are still there. Thank you for your help and make it clear for me. I will still run it on your pool.
Or maybe you have any solution to ssh into original firmware of antminers? I will do shell scripting on my own but I need access.

Mine here solo for the ridiculous low 0.5% fee
I am and I will
My question was more about firmware for antminers you suggest to use. As I mentioned before: Bitmain makes a lot of limitations for its firmware. February 11, 2024, 06:27:25 AM
So let's summarize: I can use BrainsOS+ on solo pool and there was a proof that this software can find block. Am I correct?
No idea if it can find a block, but proof it can hash >32bit shares - which is one well known historical example of losing blocks ... that happened on slushQuote
I heard about Vnish which is using open source software under the hood but I can be wrong.
Vnish is a full on lying bunch of scumbags who also violate my cgminer license.Quote
Do you have any suggestions how to solo mine "the right way"?
Mine here solo for the ridiculous low 0.5% fee If you want to do it yourself, then be prepared to spend $15k a year on fast bitcoin nodes to distribute you blocks around the world.
Of course it will still be slower than here.
