Well, nothing would know the stats anywhere except at the worker level (which I don't provide for rewards)

If you had multiple miners pointed to the same worker, you'd only be able to see it grouped no matter what, so that depends on how you point your miners to workers.

Anyone mining to the SG node.
There was a network problem for about 15 minutes between the main pool data centre and the SG node.
You will have certainly failed over during it.
Problem was from 4:28 UTC to 4:43 UTC
All back to working OK again.

Nice block action kicking in! But a question a little off topic, I have a bunch of miners that I got at different times and I'm trying to see which ones are close to ROI (if thats possible), not factoring power costs. Just strait earnings on each miner vs. what I paid for the HW. I know I can use a Excel sheet to figure that out, but wanted to see if anyones knows of a website calculator that looks at the PPS earnings historically to calculate earnings? I know I made more here then PPS and I can use ZACH's site to get my total's but I want to look at it per miner. Want to plug in the date I put it in service and its' hash rate and then have it tell me what the box made to date.

If anyone knows of such an online tool, please let me know. BTW - Been on Kano since June 18,2015 but I'm looking to calculate ROI on HW since October 2015

Thanks,

my rental just ended, and 2 quick blocks - life is good in kano !

Okay, we're on a bit of a streak now...the blocks just keep coming!

Another block

That's what I'm talking about!  A fat block by n200ug!

Block
1.8% txn fees

kano cut him some slack he is young and still gets the fever.

There was a time i thought I was smart enough to pick better and had the magic touch.

 

And here you were telling us all that bullshit about how emotion has nothing to do with it, it's just finance ...

Since I wrote the thread back in Jan telling people to mine here.  I have clocked the 100 block stat every day 2 time a day.  for the last 230+ blocks.

so for the entire time the 100 block stat dipped under 100 % to 99 % for 1 day  most days the 100 block stat is over 104%

we are at block            699    life time number of 106.57%
my thread was at block 462  life time number of  104.33 %

so in 237 blocks we went from  104.33 to 106.57

You guys need to calm down it is all good.

this is a marathon not a sprint.

with any luck  we should be good until we get to the 6.25 btc block size  that is three years from now .  it is a long time. from now.   and the next set of chips will get to .09 - .15 watts   they will stay around a long time.  the time to get nervous is past 2020 not 2016.

Yep, I can personally vouch for that 110%...I was here straight through those 10 weeks (plus many more) and 110% over that long a stretch is mighty hard to beat!

I used an dc amp probe on my A6 and they are between 10.8 to 11.2 on each pin line side of the hp1200@240 volts is 4.2 amps just saying

Yeah and they all left, they're just hoppers who clearly have no idea of mining statistics.

Like most pools, I don't really like hoppers.
When they are large, people see the pool hash rate going all over the place and some consider that an issue.
I'm way more tolerant of them coz they have no effect on luck and they wont 'hop' in and get extra BTC doing that - none have those magical pixies to tell them when the pool will find blocks

Certainly I can say this in hind sight due to the results the Block Statistics show: if you had listened to Philip and just pointed your hash rate here, around 10 weeks, at a total 110% for 10 weeks, is pretty hard to beat ...

Solid PSUs and cables, yes.  I don't know if I would call that a design issue though.  6 pin PCI-E does up to 288W if done correctly (that is right at 8A per pin which is what they are rated).  That means proper gauge cables (18ga. at a minimum, 16 is even better, never 20ga), good quality connectors, and avoiding longer cable runs (doing these will prevent losses to heat).  Last summer I ran my SP20s (also a 4 jack design) all the way up to the 288W maximum on loops 0 and 2 (1 and 3 never were that high due to the thermal design) and I never had a problem-- not even a warm connector.  The A6 doesn't require as much as a full speed SP20 did (The A6 requires about 7.25A per pin), so I feel plenty safe with my A6 miners.

I don't trust most cables though and prefer to make my own.  I use 16 gauge leads, about 8 to 9 inches long, the proper Molex parts, and even go as far as soldering the crimped connection just to make sure I'm not going to have any dangerous losses at the connection.  If there is a meltdown I want it to be my own fault and not the fault of just any budget cable of questionable quality.

As for the other discussion, I chose to upgrade from the SP20 to the A6 rather than the S7.  My reasons were the matching power requirements (easy reuse of my existing server PSUs), perceived durability ("perceived" because it is hard to get a good sample on this... with more S7 miners out there, there will naturally be more S7 complaints), the quieter operation (since when winter arrives I plan to mine in my indoor "mining hole" [I mount them right inside the HVAC return during the winter]), and not supporting Bitmain in general.  I did reduce my planned upgrade though, as the price of the A6 is extremely risky.  Obviously individual reasons will vary, but that was why I went with the A6.

I am a bit nervous about how the A6 will run when the summer heat hits.  I hear 95F is about where these stop and we do get a few triple digit days here.  I've upgraded the exhaust fan in my garage to 6200CFM to hopefully move the heat out and will also be undervolting them a tad during the summer months.  So far it is moving the heat out better than expected-- I even had a SP20 that was set up for efficiency (0.62V 6% fan) shut down on a cold night because it was running too cold   (exhaust temp was only reaching 29C)!  I have to bump that one to 0.64V on the colder nights just to keep it alive with 45C exhaust.

nhando,

Yeah well, 3 repeated posts copying most of the same thing, is normal grounds for deleting posts anyway.
I didn't delete all the posts by everyone saying why to buy Bitmain, but yours even started out with unreliable information about prices ...

Meanwhile, I've updated the 'CDF' list
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.8895607
(Edit: if I've made a mistake or missed one, let me know, but I'm pretty sure it's all correct and up to date again)

Yeah, it sometimes maybe gets a little too off-topic but I love the way fellow Kano CKPool miners support here each other in various things, hardware things included. It keeps the mining and pool hash rate at sustainable level or at least has a positive effect on it

I still have 3pcs 100USD discount coupons for Antminer S7 batch 15 for those who need it. For free.
edit: I have now no coupons

Man you can delete all my posts, even though I just tell people to think about the recommendations.  I never push the S7, I just happened to have hundreds of coupons that I only offered for your Pool members for free vs charging them like in other threads.  Your pool is the only 1 even promote in the S7 thread.  I have help numerous Kano's pool people with free boost with hash rate from 20-50TH and pointed only to YOUR pool.  I have sold and gave really crazy discounts to Kano members only.  Don't know how I'm considered a Bitmain and Antpool lovers, all I'm saying is keep your minds open on Pool and hardware options.  Bitmain / Antpool dont' pay me and Kano pool definitely don't.  I was a newbie not too long ago and was very fortunate to get the help from DMwardjr, Philip, notlist3d, MarkAZ, etc before I got a better grasp on things.  They helped saved me from circuit panel blow outs, fire hazzards and investing huge amount of money on the wrong hardware.   I just seen way too many bitcoin newbies who just started out, got screwed with bad advice, gave up and hate Bitcoin.  That's what I can't stand.  If you talk big about caring about the Bitcoin network, not mining empty blocks, then we should also promote a healthier environment to encourage good advice for new members to prosper.  This is what the forum is about, to educate future Miners.   Doesn't matter if it's a S7 or Avalon 6 or ABC device, they all are miner here looking to ROI.  We should offer the best advice to help them achieve that.

P.S see my numerous post about me trying to get Kano pool to 40PH to help decentralize the network.  Only myself and Philip mention that.   I actually flexed my muscle to help push it from 33PH to 40PH during that nasty ridiculous week. 

Yeah on an emotional level I want you to be wrong.

But the Avalon 6 costs a bit too much.

And as for running a lot of them it is hard for me to say they are easy. I ran 10 at a time in a space that was too hard to cool. However I can run four or five in that space.

The Avalon 6 has a serious design issue which took a while for me to figure out as my room was not hot enough to cause the issue.  It pulls as much as 1050 watts dc on four jacks so your really need solid psus. And pcie cables.

The s-7 uses nine jacks to pull 1400 watts.  This is better. Maybe  150 watts a jack vs 275 watts a jack.



I own and run 7 Avalon 6s and I own and run 1 s-7.  I mine all my machines right here


Most likely I will buy 2 s-7's with coupons but I am in a very low cost power spot due to the solar array.

I can run the 2 s-7 at 9400 gh and not care about the noise.

While I need almost 3 Avalon 6s to get 10200 gh.

2800 watts vs 3000 watts and 1050 usd vs 1800 usd that's a killer for me.

And it is not like I did not support Avalon I did. 

Back to this pool I look forward to getting the extra 9400 gh

I will be close to 35 th

Oh wow - yep that puts you at the top of the list I think now.
OK, better get around to updating the list.
I'll edit it to show the top 5 and the bottom 5 ...

3 days left to go

Hey, I found a block 

Do I get a badge  ?
