Congrats to 1FCsjVb87kf2QDETvEgpRkHwE3rYfi4dky for finding block 41 with ~115 TH/s

https://blockchain.info/block/000000000000000000c4a6570d47f39dd7ce11d65a2a194d0fdcd8ce4f9b0aa9


Edit: was just pointing 500 TH at the pool and saw the block being found on blockchain.info so was very hopefull but alas for me no block  Angry

mrr is maybe 20% more than nice/westhash. don't know where your 1.5-2x figure comes from

hmm, your partially right, was looking at the price for some of the big rigs which are priced at 0.0199 btc/TH/day. The smaller ones are more reasonably priced around 0.012 btc/TH/day. Still, at nicehash I sometimes rent for as low as 0.0093  Wink which gives a factor of 1.3x

Anyhow, the point I was making was that Kano made the cdf/luck calculation assuming 24/7 mining which can't be the case if spending 1BTC a day. So finding 5 blocks as 727miner did has to be even more lucky then calculated by Kano.

You're right, my hashrate varies. I rent some rigs for 3 hours, some for 12, some for 24 hours so it fluctuates. I try to stay around 1BTC a day as a spending guideline but there are times I have thrown more at it. When I hit the first couple of blocks I was renting less hash, 100-150T. I've gone up a bit since then.

{"hashrate1m": "241T", "hashrate5m": "242T", "hashrate1hr": "237T", "hashrate1d": "233T", "hashrate7d": "150T"
Well the calculation is pretty simple.
If you know your average block diff (i.e. replace 0.42) and the number of blocks (I guess that should have been 5)
You can calculate it.

Using organofcorti's post/link
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.10638159

To see 5 blocks avg 0.42 (i.e. 42% Diff)
http://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=CDF[ErlangDistribution[5%2C+5]%2C++0.42]
You get 0.0621261 i.e. ~93.8% of the time it will take longer

For current diff, 200TH/s for a day is ~8.5%Diff per day
If he's been mining 200TH/s constantly for 20 days and found 4 blocks, thats ~170% Diff to find 4 blocks - or an average of ~42% per block (0.42)
CDF[Erl] = 0.42 4 0.25 ~= 0.09
So ~91% of the time you'd expect it to take longer than 20 days to find 4 blocks mining at 200TH/s (with the current diff)

If he is sticking with 1BTC a day on rentals then he's not mining 24/7. 1BTC gets you around 11/12 hours of 200TH on Nicehash when the price is low but he's renting on mrr where the price is considerably higher (1.5/2x higher) so assuming that then he is only mining about 6 to 8 hours a day.

That makes for 5 blocks; same number of blocks as ads2003uk. One more and you beat the record* 727miner!

*except for the farm that mined here in the beginning of the pool

Nooooooooooo. Lol

Payday is not coming quick enough, I will regain my title if it goes - i'll only let you have the glory for a while ha ha.

What was the hashrate this time?

Hashrate was ~200Th; I looked it up right after the block was found. He's probably doing what he said he was doing and that is renting 200 - 250 TH with 1BTC a day.


I don't understand how this can happen.  Even 200TH 24/7 it's long odds to solve one block.  This is magic, or more proof we all live in a big computer simulation.

Holy freaking mother loving gods on a stick!!!  Another block goes to 727miner.  Whoever it was earlier (think it was mikestang) who said the Pattern weaves around him was surely not mistaken.

Yes, he is ta'veren for sure. Smiley

what does it mean if you get a share accepted message on your miners?

ive chucked 20 block erupters and a U2 at the pool to see if the odds are better than lotto Wink

Sorry, but really? You're a hero member and don't know what that means?

It basically means your miners found a share above the target set by the pool. It's a way for the pool to keep record of shares submitted by miners. The target set varies by the amount of hashrate you point at the pool so the more hash the higher the target is set. This is basically done to avoid the pool having to handle a shitload of diff1 shares. Note that for this solo pool it doesn't matter! The only thing that matters here is finding a share above the network difficulty. Your miners would report that as 'found block'.

Yup and i was hoping that i meant something different with this pool Wink bit of a preemptive post as after about 10min of nothing showing up - i got a 1 share accepted message. its now started with a whole load of share accepted messages as usual Cheesy
I'm pretty sure the pool starts you off with a difficulty of 1042.  Once you hit that difficulty, it adjusts according to your perceived hash rate, so you then start to see accepted shares as you typically would. 

In cgminer you can use --suggest-diff # and start out with whatever is suitable for your miner.

that was block number 5 to 1LjZmRdMV7Mk88bx7oMMWgKWaFF8yG1qtp ?

i wonder how much that mining has paid so far, 40btc cost, 125btc income?

Power cost is the main reason for renting my electricity rate is .13 in nj

Come over to PA! My kwh's are 8 cents!  Fracking is bad for the environment but good for gas fired power plant electricity rates, apparently...

Nice.

Thanks, no I'm not setting worker names, just my wallet address. Most of the rigs I prefer renting are <2T, I do look at their performance and to see how close they are to their advertised hashrate. I like the communication feature on the rigs and have had some good discussions with several of the rig owners. I'd be very interested in narrowing down which rigs found the blocks. Largest rig I have rented right now is a bundle of 15xSP20 (~20T).
Is your username on MRR the same as here, or something similar but slightly different?  I've had a frequent renter with 727 in the username for my rigs.

That's me, I'm on your SP31's right now. Any blocks on them?
Yep, a couple have found some... trying to find my login to photo bucket so I can upload a screen grab... OK got it:



TY, I wonder if one of your babies hit the jackpot for me..either way your rigs are top notch and I will keep renting them for the near future  Cheesy
Thanks man, good to hear they're doing well... they do much better than my S5's for sure.  Had 3 of the S5's tank over the weekend, caused one of my renters to get a refund.  Ticked me off.

I tossed all my hash power over to this pool about a month ago for 3 days, got nada... congrats to you on the luck streak, it's amazing to see.

Several users have 200T deducted more than once, then the other miners managed to force the distribution of small and large pool to see other hit is because the collection operation, That pool is really small mines have a way to get the block according to the difficulty of the past few days? Or chances with a purse address obtained? As previously cex.io why later than 51 percent faster time to count large force kicked one, it is the combined effect of interest, But now the situation is a personal leasing machines to obtain the probability of hitting the block? As long as the rich pool that occupied the mine is possible? The formation of small miners alone can not dig and survival situation. Nobody could understand what I wrote condition 0.0?

I am more curious is that a purse address, only a few T's family of small miners under the same conditions, who can get really reward, mining alone to accept the cost of electricity and heat, only God knows.
