It looks like there are bigger problems, but I have a question for when anyone gets a chance.  Does it seem like rewards are more than halved?   Also, is there any link to a working mining calc or one where I can change reward?  Bitcoin wisdom still has it set at 25....  Just trying to negotiate a rental contract outside MRR, the prices people are paying are just plain dumb.  I can get direct mining and better price on my own.

I use this one:

Yikes just checked in - how long has it been up and down?
The downtime appears to have started at around 16:35 UTC. It's been up and down at least once in that interim. Kano is working on it, as posted above.

Main controlling node at the main datacentre went down ...
I'm now looking for an assassin to kill whoever the tech guy was who hit Ctl-Alt-Delete ... yes literally that's what happened Sad
All is OK again.

I can PM you Cousin Vinny's number in Chicago...  Grin

Thanks for taking care of it in the middle of the night.

Looks like we are

My S7-F1 couldn't connect to either fr/dk/main.... so it wasn't mining for a few minutes.

I couldn't ping any pool either and my 3 configured pools are kano.

My behavioral scientist/ex-bank cop self is just now waking up...0600 here...and having a ball reading all the gloom & doom stuff from some folks. As I've said before...this is not an occupation...or hobby...for the faint of heart.

My point regarding last year's spot and yesterday's halving is this: it's based on hard numbers, and the diff% is not what I'm looking at. It's not relevant to my view. I'm a "small home miner" in essence, although I've farmed out three S7s to Labrador, where they will still make a profit. I've been involved in this for years. I think there are a number of us in that position. We don't all see it the same, though, for various reasons. Some of us were "there" for the last halving...I can remember a good deal of talk in the same doom & gloom category then. Seems to have worked out a bit better than apocalypse, though.

Bottom line is that, after my first stint that ended in Mt. Gox, I started over with a high-end GPU; promptly moved up to a used S2; then began turning over revenue, plus a little extra fiat cash, into used S3s until I had six plus the S2. Then picked up one S7, then two more new. After blowing the 30A mains at my place a couple of times (I'd been misled on how much service came into my flat), and after doing a bit of research, I shipped off the S7s to Labrador, and retired the S2 as nowhere to cohost it that had free power (as I do). After all that, I'm not going anywhere. I live on partial VA disability and a small retirement check. I can't afford...at all...to gamble with resources.

I knew up front in sending the units to Labrador that they would still be profitable after the halving...not so much, obviously, in terms of BTC, but quite reasonable in terms of fiat cash. Again...my focus is on long-term investment, not cash flow. By the time of the next halving, I hope to have accumulated enough BTC to take care of any major catastrophic financial events that might come my way without being wiped out...again.

Sorry for the long tome...only on my first cup of coffee. I'm happy to see a couple of "new" blocks on the queue, and again, I really do appreciate all the interchange here. I also appreciate your level of civility, and the acceptance I enjoy. Ain't many places left on the planet where that is the norm. We've got a few "interesting" folks here on the board...but they're the salt and pepper of the mix. Keeps it from getting too awful serious.

I've had to wait for the halving, and another few days to see that things go as expected. So far, so good...and it's time to move the little private co-op of disabled and low-income folks here into reality. We've been working on the plan for it since February, and the concept is proven feasible now. I'll post about it on a separate thread in a couple of days. A key factor in it has been the performance and integrity of this pool.

Mahalo nui loa no ke aloha (heartfelt thanks for the aloha...good energy).



Anyway...the old "keep calm, and mine on" still holds.  

EDIT: Took a while to type that...just saw the notes on status...and my S3s are all failed over to solo as well. Interesting new note on the site with the "Database reloading," but mining is definitely not OK. Shows kano.is dead for about 19 min (presently 0457 UTC here).

Looks like we had a restart.
I'm showing all Huh on the web site.

I'm assuming I'm not alone?  Wink

The site says:

Database is reloading, mining is all OK

But my S9 has re-pointed at a backup pool.

All of my hardware has failed over to the the backup pool...

Same here. I'm mining solo right now. Perhaps I'll get lucky! LOL
