Mine at Jonny's Pool
You mine on pools that do not support segwit.  To enable segwit, a pool has to do a few things, including changing their coinbase transaction to include the segwit commitment.  Without doing those things, the pool will not vote for segwit blocks, and segwit will never be activated.

Kano, I have a question what type of blocks are mined here? Core, unlimited, classic, bip100? If its been posted before and I missed it sorry for the double question.
Thanks
Standard BTC blocks
No random attempts at changing BTC ... and also no segwit indicators.
So I guess that means 'core' without segwit voting.

Kano, what is the best way for us miners to help block segwit? Segwit is just a fancy way to take miners money. Last I heard months ago pools like antpool weren't on board as well.
It requires 95% (as it should for any such change) to activate.
That's certainly looking unlikely at the moment.
The only way to stop it would be either that things remain as they are, or if any of the remaining % needed switch, convince them otherwise Smiley

What 1% are you guys are talking about?
I typically pay about 0.15-0.2% to consolidate. First confimation is typically in less than an hour, two hour max.
You just don't use the default settings.

Kudos. That's why I'm a newbie and you're legendary Grin

LOL, pay just 15 sat/226 bytes (4-5 times less than usual); it works on tx with many inputs OR kano's pool will confirm his own inputs.

I too do not understand this. I assume you are talking about using a trade exchange (tx) instead of a wallet like coinbase? So coinbase might take 1% to consolidate (or when you move to cold storage/buy something with these BTC) because the transactions are so small (by design small BTC transactions have a higher fee percentage to prevent spam). But you are suggesting sending these smaller payouts to an exchange and then consolidate them before sending these to cold storage?

I believe the trick is to include one large sum with all the little sums and send to yourself but I'm using Electrum wallet and even at the slowest/cheapest setting it wants over 1mBTC for the transaction. Think I'll have to download bitcoin core and manually set the servers that process the tansaction. Hopefully someone will tell me what to set them to.

Electrical engineer. Mining since 2014.
why miners not joining to this pool much? as i see this pool is more profitable compared to any other large pools.  Huh Huh Huh Huh Huh

That is a very good question. It IS more profitable than most -if not all - of the medium to large mining pools. That question can only be answered by those who mine somewhere else.

Perhaps they would rather have the glitz and glam of a flashy web interface with slick graphics that finds less blocks than have a sturdy pool that finds and processes blocks more quickly and efficiently than other pools.

Or perhaps they just don't know any better or have no idea what they are doing...?

For me? Screw the fancy graphics give me performance. It's about earning money, not about eye-candy.
Many miners don't know what they are doing and just point their miners in Antpool, for example.
This is a big problem and stupid IMO, also in the sense of decentralization.

"Screw the fancy graphics give me performance"  Same here. We are not here for fluff and pretty pages.  Human aspect of pretty things ... Pretty faces, pretty website seem better. Like the Chinese master the art of packaging and give you SHIT product :-)

'The right to privacy matters'
thanks for the replies
I have the following 3 set up
Pool 1:   stratum+tcp://stratum.kano.is:3333
Pool 2:      https://bitminter.com/
Pool 3:      https://slushpool.com

should i change my secondaries?

bitminter can lose your work it can fall off.

I would use one of the three I picked.



I am not familiar with slush.

NL node is down based on my beeping miners and internet still working.
Yeah there was a problem with the provider's VPS server - they reset the node (at 22:06)
All back to life as of 22:36 UTC

Edit:
Oh that's not the time you posted Tongue

DE lost connection very shortly around when you posted but came back pretty much straight away (less than 2 minutes)
That was at 16:07 UTC

NL didn't lose connection then so I guess that may have been some local EU problems at that time.

quick question from a newbie
what happens if my machines find a block?
I am part of the pool stratum+tcp://stratum.kano.is:3333
are they rewarded?


Not rewarded more than anyone else on the pool. You don't get an "extra" reward for finding a block.

To follow up.

Put Kano first
Cksolo pool second
Mmpool third

Kano pays most often
Cksolo pays the whole block but very unlikely

The key is Kano on top the other three can be in an order of your choice.

Mmpool does reward you if you hit a block
Bravo-mining has occasional promos if you hit a block
