Hey, kano-san, could you please officially announce the no-fee promotion in a different post with no other info, so that I could announce it to some Russian-speaking communities and give a link to it? Some big guys don't speak English but probably will get interested in a no-fee offer.
I will also add the announcement to my small set of readers

I'll be doing a pool restart in about 45 minutes to add a minor update to the pool, required for my KanoDB change doing block submissions.
This will mean a failover for all miners but with a failback straight back (and the 5 minute miner wait before it switches back)

Then I'll also update the DB about 10 or 15 minutes after that.
I'll post again once it's all done.
Updates all completed successfully, no problems (so far Smiley)

This update of the DB code includes the full hashing and block checking of every share that KanoDB gets from the pool code and submitting all blocks it finds also.
This is the code that I ran on the 63 day test run but with a few more changes to it since then (mainly the block submission addition)

So basically this duplicates the most important part of the pool code - but, as I've mentioned, it's all new code written by me so it gives a full independent 2nd verification of the shares and blocks.
Heh it didn't add much CPU usage to KanoDB - well a typical old CPU can do around 30MHs so since the pool is way less than that (but does roughly 10 hashes per share) it shouldn't have added much more CPU.
Gonna do another KanoDB restart in 10 minutes.
NO miners will be affected.

This tiny update adds the code to allow me to adjust the fee on a range of payouts.
It's set it to no fee from the next block after I restart ... so the sooner I restart the better for everyone Smiley
It's set it to end at 2018-01-01 00:00 - so for the rest of the year.

... and if anyone notices it gets it wrong let me know Smiley
The Miner Reward shown on the Rewards page should equal the Block Reward on the Blocks page from now til the end of the year.

Go find all your buddies with 10-50PHs and get them to come mine here Cheesy
DB restart went all OK.
Mine on Smiley

Hi bro,

Thanks for pointing that out!

My main priority 0 miner configuration is set to stratum+tcp://stratum.kano.is:3333

I am from Malaysia. Where do i see the list of server? I can't find it on the main page of kano.is hehe

Looking forward for your reply!

Regards,
Kenny

The title of this forum contains all server prefixes (xx.kano.is) that you can use to connect to the pool. I would ping each one to find the best one for you (likely to be SG but could end up being JP or just stratum)
Admittedly, this forum is so large a lot of the details about the servers are buried here. Maybe Kano could explicitly add the regional servers to the first forum post?

>>> This pool also operates regional servers, try pinging each of the following to find the best for your location (recommended: may reduce block submission time and stale rate)
stratum+tcp://stratum.kano.is:3333 (Western US)
stratum+tcp://nya.kano.is:3333 (Eastern US)
stratum+tcp://de.kano.is:3333 (Germany)
stratum+tcp://sg.kano.is:3333 (Singapore)
stratum+tcp://jp.kano.is:3333 (Japan)
stratum+tcp://nl.kano.is:3333 (Netherlands)

You mean set the mining pool on the Priority 1 of my antminer configuration? Oh I should have do that just now haha, I didnt know what it was for Tongue
I am in the US, so I have two Kano ones setup and Slush as the final backup.  Some people also have said that they set the final up to solo mining.  I have not figured that one out yet.  In any case, set the first to the one closest to you (fastest ping time) and the second one is more of an automatic discovery one.

I cannot imagine all that is involved with getting a pool setup in the first place, but it is amazing that you understand it enough re-verify every share.  I actually tried to "dig into" how sha256 works thinking that if the first part of the hash mechanism could be "cached" until it gets to the parts that are different for every calculation.  I suspect that the changing values are probably sent to be hashed first, then there is no caching opportunity anyway.  Anyway, I quickly got overloaded (did not have the multiple days needed to let it sink in).  And of course if I did figure it out, then I would have to spend weeks to learn how to "mod" my s9 which is not worth it to lose all the revenue.  Anyway, a huge bow to you Kano and we are honored to be "working" with / for you.

A share is composed of the 6 block header items that you can pretty quickly validate - SHA256 is great because it is fast like that.

You can see more at: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Block_hashing_algorithm

Although its unclear if Kano is recalculating the Merkle Root as well, but my understanding was that the stratum pool server sends that to the miner, as opposed to the miner choosing to include transactions themselves.

Thank you kano, you the man. Please update the status here once it is online, I will switch off my miner to let it rest for the moment. :-)

You don't have to turn anything off, however you should have a backup pool setup on your miners for any outages of your main pool of choice.

Hi bro Biffa,

But now I know what it is for, after searching on YouTube hehe.

Hey guys,

New miner here, I have 3 S9 (14TH each) mining on Slushpool but recently i stumble upon KanoPool.

Please if you are experienced in this, would you suggest me to continue mining on Slushpool? Or Would you recommend me to switch over to KanoPool?  :-)

Thanks! Looking forward to learn from y'all and hopefully one day, able to contribute hehe.

Regards

Any experienced miner care to shed some light? :-)

Thanks!
Our fess are less than half his.
He has much lower variance (and ripped off his miners at the end of 2015 Tongue)
Any other discussion isn't really a pool thread subject but rather a "which pool do you prefer" thread question.

I can say that when I started mining I picked the Slutpool from watching a couple of vids on YouTube where some clueless miners just like I was were saying that it was nice and all but then I tried Kano and I was in shock to see how little they payed me compared to Kanoa, At that time, I believe it was 2016 I compared the Slutpool and Kano just to find out that Kano was paying me a hell of a lot more!  And I’ve been here ever since!  Slush is just a pretty site that attracts noobs with their pretty design and all kinds of graphs and all that, nothing more!   Angry.    I can tell you that if we can get 100% luck stats taking like a year period into account or even less than 100% luck, then you can be sure that you are getting payed more than anywhere else!  Wink

Thank you brother for the in-depth insights hehe. Idk why but I am giggling at SLUTpool. LUL. I just started mining in Kanopool, downloaded the app too. To be honest, I don't know what 80% of the stats on the site says LOL. But I guess the understandings of em' will come in time as I mine....

hehehe :-)

Also I forgot to mention that since I started in Kano I’ve received a total of more than 20 btc Rewards in my wallet but it is hard to say at what average TH since I started with just 4.7 TH and was adding more and more when I had a chance and now I got around 150TH so maybe I got these 20 btc from like 70th in average but it is hard to say as well as because of the difficulty increases, before it was easier to get btc.  I just wish I haven’t sold almost all of them until now when the price is what it is!   Cheesy  Lol. But don’t get discouraged with short term luck, here we look at a long run big picture.  Although lately we had a few big miners that left us which hurt the pool, so now it’s fetting harder for miners because we have to wait for a block what seems like forever! But as long as we can stay afloat will be fine.  Cool. I hope!  Grin

Long live Kano !!!

And mine on comrade!










Damn bruh! 150TH/S is amazing! I wish to be like you one day my man. I am currently runing only with a 14TH s9, 2 other units are coming in December (I CANT WAIT!!!!)

I have so many questions to ask but don't know where to ask because they are VERY silly-newbie question lol - like what's luck % etc.

Do you have any videos on youtube that you'd recommend me to watch? I can't seem to find more about kano Pool on YouTube Sad

Regards

Sure I can help you out a little and tell you what I’ve learned so far, just write me a personal message and I will take a look at it tomorrow. Going to sleep now Smiley.   Plus we don’t want to clutter the forum too much because Master Kano doesn’t  like that lol  Cheesy.
