Decentralization is great and all but it seems some of the smaller pools need to join forces..  we have slid back down to 40PH
If we could get a couple other small pools to join Kano and get to 100PH that might make things happier for everyone going into 2018.

I rather bring this up now than have people say the same thing in 6 months with 'should of's, could of's' attached to the same ideas.

Letting small pools die slowly hurts everyone involved as probably half go to larger evil pools and less and less of the mining pie stay with the good guys.
The total hash rate of the smaller pools is probably less than this pool, so they wont help much.
Even when we were at 100PH+ the largest miner thought the variance was still too high.

As long as our luck stays close to the expected value, we should be ok, though of course we can't make it stay there, but it should.
Hopefully some of that larger hash rate that left will return, but at this point I'm still not certain until it actually happens.

I don't know how slush could gain over 1.5EH/s over a few months unless Bitmain was directly involved Smiley

Kano, What do the 3 green bullets in the top left corner of kano.is indicate? I noticed the bottom one was red briefly yesterday. Thank you,
They're to do with time delays in information from ckpool to the DB
They all go red if ckpool stops and no one is getting new work, though normally you'd also have lost your connection with the pool also.
On (rare) occasion you might see one or more go orange or red, due to the connection lost between them, that's also why I did the restart yesterday.

Aside: what they are:
Green: an eye I drew for an anime character I traced, in a past life. Aki-chan from Nogizaka Haruka no Himitsu Smiley
Orange: a logo from another anime, Soul Eater.
Red: Darth Vader

(I did create/draw/trace them - they're not just copied images)

I like big BITS and I cannot lie.
I just wanted to thank everyone for the priceless information--even patience for us new guys--and especially for my friend that sold me a miner and Kano for making this pool possible.

It's been a great first week learning and mining toward the next block. I'm glad to be a few, meager TH part of something so great.

I don't believe in superstition, but I sure do have my block party dance ready for the good news.

Mine on!

fun fun!

Now that's the right attitude! I also don't believe in superstition, re my sig...   Cheesy
This is the only place to be if you know what you're doing and want to be hanging with the hip crowd.  Maybe not so much the second bit, but kanopool ftw!
Mine on!  Cool

Always remember that you will get your full 5Nd payouts over the entire 5Nd so you don't lose anything.  The "Ramp" is a good thing and not something to despise.
I agree. But it is a much tougher nut to swallow for the new folks. Back when I joined a couple years ago, the 5nd was only like 36 hours, so a much easier pill to swallow.

It really is a great deterrent to pool hoppers though. Though they are still rewarded for all the work they contribute, by spreading it out over 5nd worth of shifts it keeps them from trying to capitalize on short term runs of luck and take rewards out of the pockets of the long term miners.

And that is why I'm trying to help educate the new folks.  Once they understand the benefits of 5Nd, how this pool pays transaction fees, and has extremely low pool fees they will start feeling less frustrated about what they don't understand.

Newbies tend to think the "Ramp" is a bitter pill they have to endure to get the payouts they deserve when it's not like that at all.  The "Ramp" is part of the reduced payout variance that this pool provides.  It's the same reduced payout variance that protects us when we have miner downtime and when you leave this pool (heaven forbid) that continues to complete your payouts for the full 5Nd.

Dang, Kano pool really really takes some patience Tongue

It's been 12 days, and my ramp is up at 6.10av outta 13.5, so it takes more than 16 days as well Tongue

Definitely agree. Feeling a bit mislead right now as I’m a week in and not even a third of the way. Unless scaling isn’t linear, it’s significantly longer than projected. Quite frustrating combined with no rewards. Stocking this out but it’s not easy to see the light at this point

For those suggesting reading the website for answers, I argue back with: if the website actually did a decent job of explaining, there would be much less question repetition here. It may make sense to people that already know the answe, but to newcomers it is very vague in many regards.
The red line on the graph is the average of the entire graph, not of the 5nd. The graph covers about 23-24 days worth of shifts.

Fair enough, makes a LOT more sense.

 So then, there is no way to actively monitor ones current ramp levels.

Actually, if you think about it there is.  Kano posts the current 5Nd time on the Help/Payouts page every day.  Right now it says "The pool hash rate for the last day is roughly 41.08PHs which means the 5Nd 'ramp' is roughly 15days 18hrs."

So, if you have been here for 8 days you are half way through and you have 8 days to go.  If 5Nd estimate changes drastically, just add or subtract from your remaining days and you can estimate how long you have.

Always remember that you will get your full 5Nd payouts over the entire 5Nd so you don't lose anything.  The "Ramp" is a good thing and not something to despise.

No quick and easy way. The red shaded area of the area of the graph is the 5nd as of the last payout.

You can get the information from the https://kano.is/index.php?k=shifts page. The column Average H/s is your average during each shift. If you added up all the shifts during the last 5nd (https://kano.is/index.php?k=payout) worth of shifts you could approximate it.

The one thing I love about this pool, is that all the info is out there and not hidden. If there's not an easy link to give you the answer, most of the raw data is somewhere on the site and you can usually figure out the answer from there.

Hey btw, any word from Canaan if they would support Kano pool with some AvalonMiner 821 units for a give-away competition like with they have done previous generation AvalonMiners?  Smiley

my guess is they match up with the 3 lines next to them on the right?

Agreed, need to stick together nad get back up to that 100PH level.

Is the pool up and running right now?
Up, down, and sideways.
Check your internet Smiley

My miner switched pools. That’s why I was wondering. It went back a few mins later
