Hey elokk Smiley

Holy feck! Blockchain Jesus has answered my prayers and given me a block.
I would have thought it was some Demon Lord and his wenches who'd answer prayers for BTC.

Looks like bitfinex is going to bail in. Use all user accounts to pay for loss.
Like having your bank make a bad investment and having all the depositors pay for it.

Regarding 'hopping' Smiley

I mine 9-14 hours a day depending on when I leave the A6 on extra sometimes, if it's colder, or if I forget to turn it off.
I have 9 hrs of 'cheaper' electricity (well not that cheap, but better than some) but keep my A6 mining sometimes outside that 9 hours to heat a little more - which of course I wouldn't do if it was summer here.
I don't turn on any of my old miners (other than little USBs for pool testing) coz yes indeed that would be a noticeable loss, but I do run the A6 since it does cover most of my electrical cost at home including the A6 (and currently provides heat)

The point being that indeed I don't "expect" to be paid worse because of that.

What reward you get will of course not match what you "expect" to get since luck plays a factor in it.
Also if you don't mine full time, the luck will be different to the pool, since the pool luck calculations are of course based on all blocks, over all time, without gaps.

However ...
My BDR since the halving (block 420000) is only 0.00467696 - which means 100% PPS would be 0.00467696 * 12.5 = 0.058462 BTC
My mining rewards since the halving are 0.0588882 = 100.7% PPS
(and of course that doesn't include any possible future ramp down BTC if I stopped mining now)

Edit: BDR (Block Diff Ratio) is the shares weighted, based on what they are worth when they were found.
There's no point simply adding up shares, since their value changes every diff change, but my luck report includes doing this calculation to determine how many blocks a person's submitted work should have found - and that can be directly converted to 100% PPS BTC if the block reward is constant (since the halving 12.5 - or before the halving 25)

I was under the impression of the " last 5 n shares "... or something like that is what screws up the mining efficiency if you don't mine continuiously.... Every day now, I mine 8pm to 8am for a cheaper rate of electricity, i'm pretty certain that when the timer shuts down the system, its not right exactly when the block is found that I was last mining. I mined a portion of that block, but I wasn't mining till it was found. - doesn't the pool have some sort of "pool hopping" deterrent - that effects my mining because in a sense, the pool would think that I'm a pool hopper since I there for a little bit then gone?
You misunderstand (like most people do). Hoppers are not "penalised" more than any other miner. The difference is they can't game the system to earn more than other miners. If you mine half the time, you get half the reward. It's as simple as that. Regardless of whether you do it in one long block or half a day at a time. The only issue is if your hashrate is so low that halving it takes you below the dust threshold (under 1TH).

Ok, Thank you for clarifying that.

I'll keep my miners right where they are then.... they are well above that dust threshold.

Part time makes no difference to your expected reward ... except of course if you mine half the time you of course will get half the reward mining full time.

Edit: and to the person who's posts I deleted, no, mining anywhere else for BTC will not get you more.
No one pays you for "not mining"

... and mining altcoins is a scam so I don't let people post to help scam others here.

For the repeated questions: You're asking how can you make mining be profitable with high electricity costs when you can't use the generated heat? The answer: You can't.
If you want to discuss strategies to try and make money from an otherwise guaranteed loss situation, that discussion belongs elsewhere.

I've been mining on kano.is for so long that I've forgot want is "out there" for mining pools....

I like mining on Kano.is, but with the current difficulty, the halving and with my electric rate in Wisconsin, I now have to mine in 12 hr shifts to take advantage of a time of use electricity price break to remain profitable. Even so, I'm only making a whole whopping $1.50 a day ( that's what a calculator says ) running all S7's.

Mining on kano.is is awesome if you are mining 24/7 , but I don't think its too good at all if mining on a part time schedule.

As a kano fan, I hate to ask this but its either find a different pool, something that has a better payment play that more friendly to part time miners, or I'll have to shut down bitcoin mining altogether because it just plain out does not have any advantages / profit. In winter, mining heats the house so that works out nice, Mining heats the house and pays me.... but summer is here, it makes the AC run harder or I'm running multiple fans gobbling up energy that way.... all for a whopping $1.50 a day (in theory / calculated)

So I must ask .... where do the part time miners mine? I could use a suggestion where to point my miners now.

Thanks

Exactly the same here with the power outages in Venezuela..
