Got another of those 'bazillion web logins' going on on the web site again.
You'll find logins disabled for a while.

Silly bots. Can you pick up any pattern ?

No it's just the usual bazillions of windows computers with viruses that people control.
Since a large part of the world likes windows, blocking all windows computer connections isn't ideal

So I've had a think about yet another way to stop the bots when someone does this, since it's been happening a lot lately.

At the moment I simply disable logins until some (short or long) time after they stop doing it.
From now on, I'll do something a little more drastic, but it will allow people to normally login.

Basically, after a bot login attempt starts, it will switch to ban anyone who fails a single password attempt.
Under normal circumstance, it takes a few login failures to get banned, but I can (of course) change that setting at any time.
So when the bots attack it will ban the IP of anyone who fails even a single login attempt.
This way it will affect all the bots, but only rarely affect any users who can't remember their password, and only during the bot attacks

Edit: and the bot's started again - let's see if they all get banned - seems to be working

Thank you, @schmokeandapancake, for the Xmas block! Woohoo!
In your honor, I will make pancakes for breakfast! Grin

I'll second that - if only I could make pancakes with the BTC logo.

Merry Xmas All!

Just started 12h ago with a few S9s. Good to be here.

Already got a reward and payment, but it does not show in my wallet yet, is that normal?

Sorry for the noob question, first timer..

Happy holidays and good mining!

Cheers

The Help->Payouts page explains it.

First we find a block, next it gets +101 confirms (and changes to Matured) then I send out the payout.

A block reward can't be spent until after 101 confirms of the block - no matter what pool.
Once the transactions has been sent out (~1 minute after the block has matured) the transaction must be confirmed.

'Confirmed' means a transaction is included in a block.
Our next block found after the block matured, will confirm the payouts transaction, unless some other pool confirms it before then.

You will see it when we find the next block. Go back two or three pages. We just had a major discussion about this and Kano and others broke it down Barney style. Any further questions, feel free to ask.

Hello all, super noob here. Have 3 S9's ordered from ebay for the late Jan batch, praying this order doesn't get cancelled. Hopefully be online by the 2nd week of Feb. Looks like a great community and I can't wait to join in the fun.

Do your homework now. Ping and find out the fastest server to connect to. Read the threads and try and discern how to set them up and how the 5ND works, etc BEFORE they arrive. If you can get the 22/240 V circuits installed before they arrive, Power Distribution Units and Power supplies on hand. Many Noobs don't do this and end up finding themselves trying to put all the little pieces but needed pieces into place. Welcome to the Best Bitcoin Mining Pool on the Planet with the Best Subject Matter Expert running it. Mine On With Kano-San. Merry Christmas.

How often should an S9 be shut down and dust blown out of it with compressed air, if ever? I know it would depend on the environment it is in, but say in the average house.

Just wondering if anyone cleans thier out, or if you run them hard and let the dust bake on?

I am also wondering why people seem to think that you cannot run an S9 on 120 volt? I understadnt that the power supply puts out less watts when on 120 volt as apposed to 240 volt. Just wanted to get peoples ideas on if they should be run on 240?

Mine draws 12.6 amps at 120 Volt, about 1525 watt

The miner itself runs on DC from the PSU.

220/240 is preferred for many reasons.

One of which is because it pulls half the current of 110/120. Half the current means half the heat, and warm wires are not your friend.

Also, the average US residential circuit is 15A. You shouldn't run at > 80% of the capacity of the circuit for an extended period of time. 20% of 15A is 3A, so you shouldn't be running over 12A on a 15A circuit. If you have a true 20A circuit, that is sized properly from breaker to outlet, you're probably okay. Otherwise you're asking for trouble pulling 12.6A 24/7.

Furthermore, if your circuits are sized properly, you can run 2x the equipment at 220/240.

Lastly, 1512 watts is 1512 watts, whether it's 120 * 12.6, or 240 * 6.3.

M

Yes, I understand the math of VxA=W

What I was wondering is that the PSU ( Um yes DC I Know) the PSU max DC output when input when it is on 120v input is 100 Watt 12 volt DC output, and i think 130 watt or 133 watt when input is 240. Does the S9 need that extra bit of 30 watts? I have had mine running on 240 as well, and I seen a slightly higher hash rate, but that could of been due to the temp being lower in the area that I had it running. went from 20 deg ambient to 5 deg ambient when it was on 240.

The New nomex 14/2, 90 deg C that they use in residential now is actually rated for 25 amps. The breakers used are 15 amp. I believe this was due to the OLD wiring being rated for only 60 deg C which made it rated for only 15 amp.

** Note: I am refering to the Bitmain PSU.

The miner runs "better" with the 240. Every little bit helps.
