I think we all wish we started in the beginning...wouldn't that have been a hoot Cheesy

I started in 2011.  I which I hadn't spent 50 BTC on Jalapeno and Block Erupters!

If we all kept our bitcoin and did "nothing with it" we wouldn't be were we are at the moment.

Never forget that.
Yup. No question.

Ja. To-date stats say I've earned BTC100.85342753 here Cheesy A very tidy sum right now if most had not been spent on constant upgrade/expansion of the farm to my current >250THs.

Nonetheless since I've stopped growing the past few months...

LOL, right! If I had more electrical I'd probably grow a bit more myself but it'll require a major electrical upgrade to get more power in my house or even a shed with it's own dedicated power and cooling. I have been thinking of doing that as well.

Please, I have a question: What the difference between the Shares and Avg Share??

Thanks for attention.

EDIT: Sorry for my noobest question.


And which one is calculated to know how much BTC I am generating per hour?

Yeah the only catch here is variance.
It's not terribly bad, but of course a lot more variance than the larger pools.

I'm still yet to understand why the 2 top miners left though.
THeir issue was given as variance, but that's a bit of a lame excuse since the average has been over 100% for a while.
Yeah it went under 100% short term but long term it's still over 100%

I guess they can't handle getting well over 100% PPS some months (162%, 138%, 133%) but only 78% PPS some other times Tongue
... it's called planning ahead Smiley

Edit: FYI 100% PPS over 77.94% is of course only 128.30%

wouldn't the fact that fees are shared tip the scales easily?
Yeah, and at the moment there's also no fees at all til 2018
Then it's back to the lowest fees for all pools worth mining on, of 0.9%

Actually, I did. Then came Mt. Gox.

It's been a helluva ride. Kiss

It is not much, but I also added a new 741 to the pool yesterday.

It turns out that even though I have plenty of capacity left on my mining breakers, the new 741 (combined with everything else also on the subpanel) was just enough extra to trip the breaker feeding the entire subpanel after a few hours.  I adjusted down some older gear to compensate (I hope).

I don't get it either. Unless some other issue that came up but still, some folks only look at the immediate, not the long term. I hated to see Cobra pull most of their stuff out, but other than that I am pretty happy with the pool. Sure even I get a tad bit frustrated on longer runs, but then we get a reward and I get almost 400 bucks with my measly 51TH (now 58) and I am happy.

Seven more blocks and I can pay off a credit card, woot! And BTC is almost 12k; its good to be a miner. Wish I had gotten into BTC a long time ago, but I was working for EA at the time having a blast and it just wasn't a priority (kick myself in the ass).

Thanks, Kano, for keeping it real!

Not sure I was happy getting a unit that didn't work right out the box. Was it even QC'd? Oh well, it seems to be working now so let's hope that continues! Get's me up to a massive 57TH Smiley


Mining is so addictive - I'm glad there's it is relatively hard these days to quickly get miners, otherwise it'd be too easy to spend more and more on it.

If I were you I'd start fresh by flashing the micro SD card with the avalon miner software for your raspberry pi controller, then follow the instructions.(https://canaan.io/question/how-do-i-connect-an-avalonminer-721-and-avalonminer-controller-including-raspberry-pi-1-2-and-3/)

edit: not sure what you mean about connecting it to the "other port" on your pc. As a first step to initially configure the controller, you'll connect your PC to the controller with an ethernet cable. You manually change your pc's IP to 192.168.0.102/24 with a gateway of 192.168.0.1 (obviously). You then open your browser to http://192.168.0.100 From there you configure your LAN settings for your actual IP addressing scheme. Then you remove the direct ethernet connection, and plug the avalon controller's ethernet cable in to your router. Then from your computer, you'll navigate your browser to its new IP address that you set for instance 192.168.1.5 or whatever your situation entails.

I set the other NIC on my PC to the same Ip schema the default pie comes on. So I set it to 192.168.0.99 and plugged a cable into it and the pie to access the Avalon's API. Then the unit wasn't saving anything. Or it would save the IP address, but if I power cycled it, it would lose that IP. So i did just take another SD card and flashed it with the latest firmware and it worked.

SD Cards suck for reliability.  Mount it in a PC and run Spinrite level 2 on it and reformat it.  That sometimes will correct SSD type media.

Mine ON!!!
Just bought my first s9.

I have it pointed at kano for 3 days now.

The ramp up time seems like around 15 days.


What happens if the power goes out or the internet drops during or after that time? Will it take 15 days to ramp up again?

ramp goes down at the same rate it goes up is my understanding

As stated recently - the 5Nd ramp is always there, for each share you submit it takes 5Nd to reward it.

What it means is that if you mine for 1 day, then from when you started until 5Nd after you stop, it's expected to reward you a total of 1 day worth of mining.
Of course they are the statistical expectations, and luck will of course change that, but again that's what's expected to happen.

In terms of what you will see, if you mine for 2Nd then lose power for 0.5Nd, then it will take 3.5Nd more to get up to full.

But none of that affects your total expected reward, it's always expected to reward you the total amount of time your mine, it's just spread out over, from the time you start until 5Nd after you stop.
