Kano, could you please PM me your contact email address?  I have an account issue I would like to email you about, it will come from the same address as my account registered on your site.  Thank you.
Use the address that the pool emails you from.

……sold it for a pretty good profit at the middle before it went down. These long term waves happen on almost every Alt-Coin, almost every one. There are also a lot that never move and are usually delisted after a time.

For trading I would suggest to discuss @ other board or https://www.forexfactory.com/showthread.php?t=649649

Dannn, its 5am here…where is our blocks

Anyone knows what's happening with de.kano.is:3333 pool I'm receiving no replay :O :O

It is ping replying, so whatever it is is up, maybe a service has locked up.
It was connections to the DE node itself (at 20:04 UTC)
Probably some network issue in DE rather than a node problem.

It was pretty much an immediate failover and failback for most people on DE, but of course if you have a backup pool set to NL, it would have meant simply a failover to NL then back to DE shortly after.
It woke me up, I looked at the connection count that had immediately come back, it had also not lost connection with the main pool, so I went back to sleep for 5 minutes Tongue

--

I'm running, what will hopefully be a final test, of a 3 week run of 'live' data to the backup server (that takes a bit over 2 days to run)
Assuming I find no more problems (which I expect to be the case this time) I have a final full code review of the changes that I'll do, then I'll be updating the live DB code to the new version, probably in a few days.
This is the first, but biggest step, to being able to resolve the majority of the disconnects in the future, that happen every so often.

Thanks, that was a helpful explanation.  I've been reading about the exchanges and other coins (mostly ETH and LTC) and I saw the big ETH crash last week.  Amazing to see the "wealth" vanish in a second.  

I thought you might have been talking about trading on an exchange, but I thought maybe you had a successful method you'd be willing to share some hints!  Wink  

I'll keep researching and may try to dabble in the markets a bit.  The idea of creating coins thru mining seems safer for my money than trying to buy low and sell high... I don't feel that lucky!

Thanks again

Haha, well buy low and sell high is pretty much the end game. Watch for trends and learn when something is going to go up after it has gone down. Usually a currency will drop (theoretically say 100) it will usually rise back up again 50 before it either continues to drop again or continues to go up. Here is an example (each yellow arrow is the approximate 50% bounce after a drop) that is where you can make small amounts that add up (you buy at the low point and sell at the high bounce):



As you can also see, if you had this when it was a low price, you could of sold it for a pretty good profit at the middle before it went down. These long term waves happen on almost every Alt-Coin, almost every one. There are also a lot that never move and are usually delisted after a time.

How much (%) of your mining income (or profit) goes back into expanding/replacing mining capacity? I know mining is for people with money but I wonder what's the smallest investment that can actually be self-sustaining in mining?

Myself I have free hosting (paid in bulk by another business of mine). but even so, the total returns on my mining are not enough to get something more than an S7 after several months, an S9 at the moment would mean putting some of my own money into this..again. So I wonder how much I should set aside (10, 50%, 100%?) to replace old hardware like S4,S5.


Free hosting? I would suggest, and this is just me and what I do, without free hosting, is take the money I get from mining, move it to an exchange and trade in alt coins to make more Bitcoin, which I am getting really good at, and then use the coin to purchase another S9 when I can, rinse and repeat.

If you have free hosting then you have no electric to cover like I do so you should be able to get going in no time at all as at the current Bitcoin exchange rate an S9 costs about .41 Bitcoin.
If you actually have "free" hosting, there's no reason for you to not make money in the present market. I have a couple of 741s on free power here at home; there are 3 S7s in Labrador that I pay hosting on; and I'm sitting on a pile of S3s, an S2, and there's a 721 and another 741 looking for a power outlet.

To answer your basic question, though...I don't "set aside" anything, because I do not use my BTC income for general expenses; I save all my BTC for future needs. I may tap into it for an emergency expense, but that's it. If I need a "new" machine, there is generally enough there to buy it if I need to. Bottom line? 100% I guess.

I'm one of the "we don't need no stinking alt coins" folks, I'm afraid. I have no interest in that sort of trading, but I don't fault those who choose to. It's your fiat...so to speak...   Kiss

Mine on...

@ firetreeactual - I'm like you and run 2 741's at home now and looking to try running 3rd soon and shipping few to Labrador soon. Wink I wanted to know how you handle several 741's running at home (ie. sound / heat).  I had friends with free electricity that wanted to host some of them but in this summer heat miners are too much for apartments and they bailed out.

Morning All:

I'm new to this game but reading reading reading and learning a lot in just a few days.  This forum has been super helpful so thanks to all the veterans!  My one measly S7 is mining in KanoPool and it makes me excited to expand with S9(s) as soon as possible.

So... if you could explain what you mean above by trading in alt coins to make more BTC, I'd really appreciate it!

Thanks!

Well, first off would be alt-coins. Those are all the other Crypto Coins out there that someone has created to be better, or have versatility, or have more anonymous features built in, or have features like smart contracts and stuff. Basically they started as a concept to compete against Bitcoin and do it better, or just try to make money on a growing market or whatever. People all have their own ideas on Alt Coins. But these are coins like Ethereum, Litecoing, Monero and 100's more (those are some of the most popular).

Next would be an Exchange. These are basically just Stock markets for alt-coin trading (and Bitcoin to USDT as well if you like). Poloniex, Bitcoin Exchange, BTCx, Kraken and many others. Once you setup an account there you can send your Bitcoin to them and then you can start trading. There are lots of ways to trade. Usually they have exchange markets for the main Alt-Coins. That would be like Monero as the base coin or Bitcoin or Ethereum or USDT (digital US Dollar).

But basically research what an Alt-Coin does, it's features, who uses it and why and then you can purchase them with the base coin, usually Bitcoin. The whole theory is to purchase them when they are low and sell when they are high. Most people do short term trading, but there are a lot of people that also do long term. Ethereum is a perfect example. It was up 4000 percent at one point last month, but all Alt-Coins were in a bubble while Bitcoin was going through the Segwit growth issue so people were investing in  the Alt-Coins just in case.

Anyway, I just watch the markets, read up on alt coins, watch to see if there are runs happening (when a lot of people start purchasing a coin and it goes up real fast) and try to purchase them when they are low and sell them when they get to a level I feel comfortable selling them before they start to go back down. I have actually made a lot of extra Bitcoin playing these markets, especially with Ethereum & Litecoin.

There are a lot of resources out there on them, I'd read up. Plus I think it's kind of fun. It's like playing the real stock market, without all the crazy brokerage fees and even if I don't make money every time, I always manage to grow my Bitcoin over time.

https://poloniex.com/ is the Exchange I use the most.

Everyone has their own opinions on these so don't take only my word for them a lot of people don't like alt coins and think they are scams, but I just play the markets to make more bitcoin and it's more fun than playing a video game or something which doesn't make you any money  Grin
