MINE AND GIN ON WITH KANO-SAN!

Love waking up to a block!

I am managing my own miners, as well as miners of some of my friends. Each one has its own wallet, of course. So each one has his own Kano account. I am managing it because I recommended them to mine here, and they trust me. It's nothing more than that.


As I asked you in PM, what do you mean by the "modified firmware"?
The firmware on my miners is stock from the factory. Nothing was modified there.
It's not an overclocked S9 or anything like that (yes, I saw someone here trying to say something about custom firmware - but I am NOT using such). I do have my opinion about modifying firmware in general, but I won't even start to discuss it here, as it has no relation to the actual situation.

I can guarantee I did NOT touch the firmware. Thus, I am expecting these miners to work just like any other miner does - FINDING BLOCKS!


It's not because I didn't want people to see it.
It's because my question was about the mining HW allowed, and NOT about payouts. Somehow I didn't even have a doubt my rewards will be paid...


I have a feeling you're trying to chase the wrong guy...
I don't understand HOW you come to think I am among those with the modified firmware...

Block! by cryptostarusa

I don't trust it.
You are the only one using it.

Testing it requires finding Bitcoin blocks.

Pools have lost a lot of BTC due to untested or improperly tested hacks.
The issue with Slush in Dec 2015 was exactly that - up to 500 BTC
ckpool software has lost at least 3 blocks due to shit testing and in the most recent case him then letting the miners take the fall.
Miners in both cases seem OK with losing BTC due to this sort of shit.
That's those pools, not this pool.

I will do my best to stop it happening here.
I keep track of a lot of data related to this, that ckpool DOES NOT BOTHER TO DO.
The testing I do is also well above the level of what Slush does.
ckpool has no idea how to do it at all.

Losing one miner with somewhere between 4 and 9 accounts (no idea why you have so many accounts) with miner versions that are suspect is no issue for me, I prefer to reduce the risk of miners losing rewards.

So can you 100% guarantee the modified firmware in your miners will find Bitcoin blocks?
Will you back that up with returning all the rewards you have made if there is an issue with it?
I think not.

Thus the answer I gave.

Though you left out part of my answer ... how unexpected.


Edit: for those wondering about if this is actually useful?
Early on in the pool I did indeed ban a few miners for such problems.

One admitted that indeed his changes to a proxy probably would cause the bad statistics.
He may or may not have lost a block in that time, but it was not a high % probability since the detection was well below block level.

Another I gave the option of continuing mining and I'd withhold payouts until his statistics were no longer so outrageously bad.
He left. I doubt he withheld a block either since it was even less probable than the above case.

However, had I not bothered to generate and keep the statistics necessary and not found these (and there were others) sooner or later one of them would have withheld blocks.

I consider this necessary.
A certain other pool obviously doesn't.
As I've said before, you're stupid to mine there and the payout naming specifically means that you are stupid also.

Kano, since you didn't respond to my last PM, let me ask it again here.

Situation is the following. I had an account with a few Ebit E10 mining on this pool for several months. Yesterday that account was blocked. Kano said (in PM) the account is blocked because he "no longer trusts them to be mining properly". The E10 I own have a firmware 8.0.0.45 provided by the factory (Ebang). If there are any doubts - this firmware is still available on their web site. I suggested to arrange a remote access for Kano to have a look in case he suspects an incorrect behavior of these miners. In response, I was only asked to "mine elsewhere".

Does this mean Ebit E10 are not allowed on this pool at all?
Something tells me I'm not the only one running the E10. I really don't understand why my account caused any suspicions.

And, if E10 are not allowed, how about Ebit E9 / E9+ / E9.x that are currently offered by Ebang?

Well what do you expect with the heat and difficulty rising I say we sacrifice another chicken and MIne on.

Now, now... Let's all play nice and get back to the chicken, dancing, and block parties.

A manager?   lololol   Try President/CEO.  You are so small time and insecure, it's hilarious.  

You going to go after kano next, or will you just slink away like you did the last time?

Boom!!!

Oh also, no more posts about that scam firmware.
I'll delete any posts with any references to them.

Last I checked on Poloniex, trust was pinned at an exchange rate of 100% hashrate.

Some people can't seem to supress the udderly urge to waste meaningless transportation of air by saying things that nobody asked for, nor nobody wanted to hear... You must be a manager in real life i guess...

Why dont you just change your forumname to "white noise"... ?

Also, why would you ever put something you couldn't review on your income generating machines?

That's like saying you want to give access to your paycheck to a vendor who promises big things, but has no proof they can deliver on those promises.

At least if it were open source we could see if they might have any bugs (at best) and no malicious code (at worst)

Agreed. So many of us become TH/s junkies, that we often overlook the obvious answers, in search of an extra bit
of HashPower.

Q: What can consumers do to get more HashPower, that is more efficient???

A: Buy equipment that is more efficient.

Note: If you have the best equipment already, there's eventually going to be better equipment. Don't BRICK your equipment trying
to get that extra fix!!!

Nah, the miner should be running at 16-17 without the Asicboost...it's crap.

The pool will work out the appropriate diff.

There's rarely any reason to set it in Management - usually only for certain very old buggy miners.

What is the recommended diff for S9? Thank You.

I can guarantee you it's fraud.

well i have to admit that i dont see the use of pushing out even more hash against many more watts, noise, heat, and shorter lifespan.
What i'm interested in, is the asicboost option,like dragonmint T1.
I can imagine that it might be a bunny out  of the hat of bitmain, in order to re-sell their "new S9Tix"with asicboost support, to generate an attractive new model, and have a new income based on hardware they already developed and produce in large quantity. (in other wordt: why release it just right now as you already are as good as unbeatable...? You'd give away your pearls on forehand and have nothing in the magic hat anymore to compete...)

I think its a viableoption that has been "discovered" by an other team right now...

So, yeah. If they do well and it works: why not. (supposing your pool can handle it.)
