Topic: KanoPool kano.is lowest 0.9% fee 🐈 since 2014 - Worldwide - 2432 blocks - page 1172. (Read 5352527 times)

I was getting notifications from my monitor and saw this:
Block @ approx 280%
Then another less than 5 hours later @ 330% 

I thought I needed to fix something. 
Then I logged in and saw what happened. 

Well, we have one in the queue and the spot price is at $734...a good start this morning! 

As moe7865 said, but I did post towards the bottom of the page ...
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.16891460

If you look at the blocks page it's there also, struck out, as Stale.

The other block was stale

Block! by 1GT2...
The '2' together is ~330% oh well.

If you mean the pool graph, that's simply because the shift was so short.
Variance increases as the length of shifts get shorter.

In this case, fewer shares than expected got into the shift before it changed. Variance
It went from 33PHs to 29PHs - so about only 88% of expected shares in the short shift.
(the shift was 52s instead of the usual about 45minutes, so about 2% of a normal shift)

Nah, nothing to do with orphans, it was simply a stale block/share.

It was at the DE node - but probably came from russia so was a little slow all around.

The pool changed block work at 07:23:08.750

The DE node got the share after that at 07:23:09.135
The main node got the share at 07:23:09.213

As I've mentioned before, ckpool will treat pretty much any block that arrives as a block and try to process it, submit it and always report it to ckdb.
CKDB always shows all such shares - so I then have to check and decide what it really was.
In this case, simply a stale share, not an orphan.

Antpoo  

Sensitive? No.
Just there is no pattern - even looking at the pool graph shows there is none.
This month has gone: ok just to start, down, up, down a little and that's it so far.
The pool hash rate has no matching pattern to that.
The hash rate this month has peaks in the days of good luck.

P.S. that block now was stale - late to get to the pool.

@Kano - I thought you might have guessed PHs

@CK - patterns fascinate me

Obviously a sensitive issue - so I will back off

Lets have some blocks then.......... We will all be happy



Cheers - usukan

I thought it was 40 before that. Well, any value will do, people love finding associations where there are none.

30? What
It was around 35 last time someone came up with comments about a hash rate jump above that bringing bad luck
I wonder how low it would have to go before that idea disappears ... hopefully wont happen ... ... ...

I always get bored when the pool goes above 30-31

We get less blocks and the block payment plummets

sorry but that's my reality

More than happy to be awakened by a new reality that includes a proportionate amount of blocks with higher hash.

Mining is hard and full of risks.

I finally got my hands on cheap power and now the newest gear with the best efficiency  ant miner s9s break a lot.

 So cheap power does not make me a big winner.

I will sit down and do a final break down of them when the time comes but they suck.

Kanos' pool earned me a full coin extra right before the ½ ing we were smoking hot.

That extra coin almost pulled me back to even.

Since post  ½ ing we are about even on luck.

But the lucky streak right before the ½ ing was nice.

We could use a red hot nov. maybe 105%.

I agree with everything you have said, and like many here have mined with just about every major players hardware in the past, including the A6, which was reliable if not a little noisy. I've had my own problems with an S9, however I'd like to point out that maybe, the first sign of what you say about Avalon being bought by a large company is already playing out...

AvalonMiner 721 includes a 90-day warranty, starting from the date goods are received. Canaan guarantees a 90 days warranty from the first date you receive the goods. We promise to replace defective or faulty parts with new parts, but mining earnings will not be compensated. Buyers pay inbound shipping and we will pay the return shipping. Please note that we are not responsible for any loss caused by customs delays, losses or charges.

Come on BLOCKSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!! It's TIME. NOW!!!! 

Although off topic, I will make comment about Avalon vs Bitmain since there is a bit of it going on.

Firstly, there really is no one other than these 2 companies out there.
Pity about that, since more products mean more competition, but that's the way it is at the moment.

The reality of it all will be to see how the A7s perform vs the S9s and what changes over the next 6 months for both companies.
I don't expect Bitmain to change. Avalon has already changed due to being bought by a large company and we'll see shortly how that has affected them.

Bitmain has clearly abused their power as the top honcho in producing a product that is not worthy of it's price due to reliability and support problems - and expected lifetime.

The Avalon A6 was a solidly built mining device and hopefully the A7 will be as good. We will see.
The only real issue I know of with the A6: is if you run it in a too hot environment - however, that's really not something that anyone should consider unexpected with mining hardware (or any computer hardware)

Hopefully Avalon will be good dealing with their customers with the A7s.
The Bitmain stories in here dealing with S9s have certainly not been in any way a positive comment about Bitmain.

If you only look at $ vs THs then you have clearly never mined before in your life, and you're about to get a rude shock if you buy mining hardware from anyone.
However, mining is not "Buy device, plug it in, forget it" - that really is ignoring reality.
In Bitmain's S9s case we've got plenty of people pointing out that is far from true, problems with them, problem dealing with Bitmain, and a clearly stated short expected lifetime from Bitmain - 3 months warranty.

We'll see what Avalon's A7s are like.

OK that's about as objective as I can be

the antminer s9 breaks a lot

while it is cheaper per th

 I along with many others have had numerous boards and controllers fail..

If I add my rma and repair and spare part cost for the s9 it is about 670.  while I only purchased 6 s9's  for about 10,000

 so I go from 10,000 to 10,670  and my down time was a lot at least 330 lost in coins mined.  so I paid 11,000 for 70th.

this is 1936 for 12 th

so 157 usd a th s9
vs 162 usd a th a7

now if I get failures and down time  the A7  will be more then 162 usd a th  but at the moment in  my case the 157 vs 162 is close enough

sorry,  I just saw a lot of people posting that they purchased them on this thread so I figured it was a good place to ask the question. 

While the avalon hardware is popular with the pool operator here, I think your question is veering way offtopic for the pool thread itself.
