Hi Guys!

I have heard good things about kanopool, so I have decided to switch from slushpool. I did this yesterday. I am trying to get an understanding of how the pool works and the statistics I am looking at. The pool just found a block so maybe I will see some action start. Should I see that block and info under "rewards" because it is not displaying. Or do I have to have until it has "matured" to display?

Hello! Welcome to the best BTC pool on the planet!

This pool uses PPLNS, which means payed per last number of shares. It takes ~3 days of full mining for your rewards to "ramp" up to "full" payout. This may seem confusing at first (I'm still not sure I fully understand it...), however what it means is you, and anyone else, also have your reward "ramp down" when you aren't mining. Therefore if you drop offline for whatever reason, or shift to another pool, you still receive rewards for 3 days as it "ramps down".

Being a "small" pool, variance can be quite a bear at times. However, you should find over the course of a month that your rewards come out higher than other pools.

are any of you more profitable compared to if you just bought the bitcoin instead of the miner?

That's a great question! If I had purchased 10 bitcoins when it was $400 I would be way ahead, but that is hindsight for you. Now that Bitcoin is regularly over $4k, it's harder to make that kind of return. That said, you can still make profits buying Bitcoin on the dips. Some people would then sell when it hits new high, but if I had the cash I would buy on the dips and hold for long term. If you have enough cash you can mine and also invest directly. I suppose you can do a serious analysis in a spreadsheet and then make your decision. Best wishes whatever you decide.

Nice to see that mining is alive and well.

@Kano, have you considered signalling segwit in order to push it closer to activation? With SegWit activated your pool will be able to include more transactions per block which obviously translates to more fees for your miners. Right now the 1mb limit is forcing you to forfeit transactions to the next miner because you can only include 1mb per block you find atm.

Well that didn't work now did it Tongue

hello guys, is it possible to Rent Nicehash TH and run to kano.is ? nicehash is asking certain difficulty to set up? anyone have tried it works?

Yes, it is. I used to do it but it's been about a year. I don't know the difficulty setting NH uses, but if you are required to pick one, you can always go into the Workers page under Management and set the difficulty.

As I said, it's been so long that I don't remember what I did. On Mining Rig Rentals, the renter would specify the difficulty and then I would go into the management on the Kano site and change it to match.

I'm sure others can give you a better answer.

... and one more thing you must do if you want a new worker for the rental

The worker needs to exist before you can set it's difficulty.
So temporarily point one of your current miners at a new worker, then change it back.
That will create a new worker that shows up under the Workers menu.

Thank you and what difficulty should I put manually in Kano and in Nicehash port ? for best results nicehash says it should be above 9000 or so

Last time I tried I did put nothing on nicehash side, but manually change it on Kano work management page and set it to 65535 as minimum diff. It should be ok like this.

Whatever the "certain difficulty" is they said (in your first post)
The pool will adjust it up higher if it needs to be higher.

The rental place just has some weird idea about what difficulty is necessary.
Their loss - it just means fewer people use them if they get problems.

Been stalking the pool for awhile and getting ready to open LLC for small /mid size mining farm. Currently running Straydaddy on the pool. Can anyone recommend a bank in US that they are comfortable with using for deposit from exchanges/wallets? ie. rent, utilities etc. Don't want my business account to get shut down. I know this is not ideal place to post this but I know there are some good miners here and I respect your opinions.
Thanks,

PM'd you my experience with setting up Kraken with my S Corp. Coinbase is impossible to get a business account. I'd appreciate a PM from anyone with experience getting a business setup with other exchanges (need a backup, as Kraken isn't always a smooth operation...).

Thanks.

hello
one question Kano users what does it mean block% in the workers page?
thank you

That would be your % of the the current pool hashrate, so it's the % of the Block you're hashpower represents when it hits.

- yup, Carl gets to it first!! Cheesy

I like the way you worded it better Cheesy
