Has minergate been patched to fix this exploit monero.crypto-pool.fr pool found?

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.8430340

Also are their plans to set up static diff ports like other pools do.  I really like to set up a specific difficulty for my rigs.

Hi!

 Thanks for your question. We would like to stress out that MinerGate is built by our team without any use of opensource cryptonote-universal-pool, which is used on majority of other mining pools. MinerGate supports smart penalties for invalid shares – https://minergate.com/faq/invalid-shares-policy. With this policy MinerGate makes unprofitable all actions by dishonest miners.
 
 In short, you can relax and rely on MinerGate!

Really? Then why do *legit* miners submit so many failed / stale shares when mining?

Don't count on it.. Minergate has around 80% more stale / failed submitted shares than any of the big pools.

Same thing is happening to a lot of people in this thread and it's what we were commenting on. This deals with crappy pay outs and bad shares as well.

Could you please share with me  more details on pay outs problems?
It seems like you are the first reporting on pay outs and I will watch this situation more precisely.

Is there a solution for these errors, when you try to mine some dsh with Claymore CryptoNote GPU miner v7 through MinerGate?
The errors are:

Starting to get them frequently again while mining DuckNote. It seems as though the worse it gets, the more bad shares pop up on Minergate. It doesn't seem like it happens all the time. It could be someone intentionally causing them to happen, some sort of attack? I know I don't get them on dwarfpool and get higher payouts because of it. Perhaps talking to dwarfpool may help. Dwarfpool doesn't have a ducknote pool though.

Still getting 'cannot convert blob data' with claymore miner, missing 5%-25% of my hashrate, using Claymore miner. Other pools work fine. Duckcoin seems to be suffering from this now too even though it wasn't before (although much less extensively them XMR). I can only surmise this is because of merged mining as other pools don't do merged mining. Please consider disabling it. The payouts for merged mining aren't worth 20% of my hashrate.

bensam123, I'm looking at your problem. I'm sure that the problem lays not in merge mining for sure.

Hi guys!

I've made some changes and improvements to MinerGate:
   • Web-mining widgets for your pleasure – now you can put it on your site and convert your visitors to miners!
   • BTC blockchain and transaction pool' display in Blockchain Explorer.
   • Renamed duckNote. Long live DarkNote!
   • Several bugfixes and new bugs.

Feel free to comment! I'm glad to hear your feedback.

Minergate is a well known scam, mine someplace else people...

Funny, been mining with them since I started in crypto, gotten everything I mined, never had a problem and issues always get resolved. So please do enlighten us as to why and also since it is so well known please show us where all this scam information can be found.

He cant. He is just trolling.

hello!

Thank you for the information.

Does it happen every time or just sometimes?

Best wishes,
Minergate

In my case, it seems every time, tried about 5-6 times. Hopefully you can reproduce it.

Hi,

What OS do you have? I can't reproduce this bug

Thank you

I have Windows 7 64bit and using 64bit Minergate. CPU is i5 Quad-Core with 8GB ram. Did some more testing and it happens on merge-mining or without.
Tried XMR, INF8, XDN etc. and now it seems it's using 3 cores (75% in Task manager), dunno maybe it's something with my setup, but like I said, it's not much hassle since its easy to fix.

How much do you mine with your config ? I have iCore 7 with 8gb ram and looks like it also doesn't use all cores  Sad  so, you are not alone.

Still getting 'unable to convert blobs' and missing 25-15% of myhashrate on minergate. It seems as though it's fine for like the first 15 minutes of mining and goes down hill from there. Mining dwarf pool gives correct numbers and payouts.

Hi,

Please, send me in PM your login, coin you mine and miner logs

Thank you
