... and one of the top two miners who added multiple PHs hashes on to that evil 666.666% block Smiley just found us a block 25 minutes ago Smiley

So the top bar of the stats say 1,748 Th, but when I look at the pool stats page, just the top 5 miners make up over 2.5Ph. Which on is correct? Seems like one of those is off. I have actually seen this case several times where the pool stats on the top 5-10 miners are much higher then whats reported as current pool hash on the header bar at the top.
The top left of every page is the 5 minute pool hash rate.
People like to see the pool hash rate change when they add miners, so ... it uses the 5 minute value .. less accurate / more variable.
I used to get it to display the 1hr value if the last pool restart was more than 1 hour ago, but changed it for the above reason.

The stats page shows each of the different pool rates first on the page, thus you can see that the top left on the page matches the 5 minute value.
The user stats are the sum of each individual user's worker's 5 minute values.
Since they are calculated independently and also are only 5 minute values, they don't add up most of the time and will be even more variable when hash rate changes quickly.

The most relevant point in all of this is that the amount you are rewarded is of course based on your shares.
Shares are very inaccurate to use to determine your hash rate since their variance is quite high due to mining difficulty.
But shares are what matter since they determine your reward, and that's what the Shifts and Rewards pages show.

Well obviously Kano fixed the pool code, right?  Roll Eyes

Hopefully some/most/all of the hash that came to bust that block stays on this pool.

Aannd... It's gone.

Any idea why these big fish leave? If they would stay it would be a 5ph or larger pool. We are still over 100% long term and top notch code and service. Just don't see where they can do better, I think anything over 100% luck is best you can do compared to the pools you have to choose from. Unless they usually solo mine, just don't get it.

Any insight anyone?


 I imagine that Kano or ck called in a favor to some big fish or it was just some good Samaritans that felt the need to help the pool bust a block. Whatever the reason, thank you!

Quick question; has anyone tried to change the default setting for 'temperature' in the updated s3 software? Mine appears to stay at default 'true'. Please let me know. Thx!
I'll check it later (haven't got time at the moment)
It's something I've never turned off since ... well ... if it ever hits 80C internally you really don't want it to keep mining ...
Yep it's in the code causing it - I've not sorted out where yet - but the config file, the init script and the web page work as expected.
When the option is not passed to enable it, it's enabled anyway.
I'll sort it out when I do the first S5 release since it's the same code for the first S5 release.

My guess is that these are large solo miners.  They are big enough to go it alone.  One mentioned he was swinging some hashing power over to help us bust the '666' block (it's now legendary!).

Different rolling time frame. They're all accurate in their own way. Kano can elaborate when he has time.

I see the different hash rates on the stats page, current, 5min, 1hr, 24hr. The list of miners says 5min hash rate, so I would think that list should match the 5min total at top, but it does not. Also, the teal color hash rate next to CKPool in the header, is that current, 5 min or 1 hr? That looks to match the 5min on the stats page, but again the miner list says 5 min and adding it up does not match any of the other totals.

Not a big deal, just curious Wink

For some reason I can't seem to find it on that page.
It's the one at the top ... that says 666.67% ... ?

Edit: oh, if you don't login, you won't see who mined it.

Ahh, now I see, I was mining without being a registered user.

Now I can see it.

Thanks Smiley

Edit: heh someone commented that the hash rate dropped but deleted their post, this was my comment about that:
Well, at least it meant that the long block elapsed time was shorter than if the pool has been at the current rate for the whole 666.666%
... and yes at 3 decimal places it is indeed 666.666%

Regarding the payout process:
The Account->Rewards web page, that account miners can see, shows soon after the block, what the reward will be when the payout is sent.
The actual payout is done after 101 confirms - I added a comment about that to the bottom of the Help->Payouts web page not long ago.

Oppss, sorry that was me that deleted the post. I didn't think it was important enough to leave in the thread. Just an observation. I apologize!!

No problem, was hoping there was a way to tell but no worries.

Thanks for answering so quickly Smiley

I think I know what you are getting at. If you look @ https://www.kano.is/index.php?k=blocks, it gives you the named miner.

Think for yourself
Thanks for the reply.

I guess what I meant by which address found it, was which user/btc address submitted the winning share.

Bitcoin addresses don't submit shares.

On this pool you can use your Bitcoin address as a worker name but that is a different thing altogether.
