Awesome. Thanks for the explanation. That makes me feel better before I throw more miners to the pool.

I tried using cgminer, being ck's pool and whatnot, but I couldn't figure out the bat file. Eventually I gave up and tried bfg and it worked. This stuff ain't easy for those of us who aren't technical...

Hi, I am having the same issue with my Gekkoscience miner running cgminer.. What should I do to have lower rate?

If your miners are working, just wait. Once you get a share above 4k difficulty the pool recognizes you and lowers the assigned difficulty level.

Cgminer lets you change the difficulty, but I couldn't even figure out how to use it, so you'd have to ask on another thread for support.

Just add

Code:

--suggest-diff 40

or whatever you want to set your diff to to the end of your cgminer command. Is it really that hard? Undecided

Hello I just joined the pool today with an old miner as a lotto ticket. Can you explain to me how to change --suggested.diff in cgminer? I just dont know where to enter the command. Does it have to to with writing a new file cgminer.config?

Hi all, please be aware that bech32 addresses (starting with bc) which have started appearing in some wallets are not currently supported by this pool, though segwit addresses (starting with 3) are supported. As always if it's unsupported the pool will simply not allow you to authenticate when trying to mine.

55TH stable

20 more TH should be up by the end of the week...

one of my new S9's has a bad board.... it runs sometimes .... I know I should send it back...

but that would mean less hash ...

Ok, I think I get it now. Does this make sense?

My miner got reassigned difficulty 4k for some reason, so no work was being reported to the pool. This caused my reported hashrate to fall to zero. I kept mining but nothing broke the 4k threshold so I had no accepted shares on my miner. Then, I broke 4k and the pool reassigned my difficulty, and now it's reporting again?

So I just need to figure out why my difficulty got reset...

That's correct. Any brief interruption to your connection to the pool is enough for it to create a new connection and each new connection starts at 4k diff unless you're using cgminer's --suggest-diff option.

I know you're using BFGminer, but if you use cgminer, the pool will respect the suggested difficulty parameter.

Also, just for my education - what does it mean when the "pool difficulty is 4K?"...What does the pool's assigned difficulty mean?

The shortest answer is that as long as your miner is running it is creating solutions at diff 1 and the pool says "do not send me any result that is lower than a diff 4000 solution".

(this is how your local hashrate is calculated)
(this is how your hashrate is calculated "at the pool")

Not mining shitcoin.

Sorry if I wasn't clear: I was connected and mining successfully to the pool. Then, I wasn't. I never restarted my computer or my miner, it simply stopped processing shares. The pool is still active, when I say I'm still getting confirmation of each new block, it's the detection on the network every ten minutes saying a block is found, not that I'm mining them. It's like my miners simply stopped for some reason:

You could try to restart your miner and see if that helps. Your pool diff shows 4k - which is the starting difficulty. Makes me think your difficulty isn't adjusting downwards for your low hashrate.

So I did restart my miner, that didn't fix it.

Basically I went to bed and left it on in the non-functioning state, woke up and it was working again after being checked out for half the day.

If my pool showed the starting 4K difficulty rate, I'm not sure that makes any sense as I was already connected and mining at my proper low-hashrate adjusted difficulty before it stopped, and now its back working again. But when it was working prior, the difficulty was 1...

Also, just for my education - what does it mean when the "pool difficulty is 4K?" I thought difficulty was the target for the hash which only matters when discussing whether a solution is sufficient to find a block, not pre-determined... Now that it is working again it says difficulty 1.

What does the pool's assigned difficulty mean?

So my hashrate has been zero for the past few hours, despite my miner being connected to the pool and my miners still getting hot and having their blinky lights blink. I keep getting confirmation of each new block as its found, but my miners aren't finding any shares. Anyone know what is going on?

Check your address settings, sounds like your mining shitcoin if you keep hitting blocks, or on some kind of test setting

if you backup pools are pointed to zpool/sha256 then your will get shitcoin blocks evry other minute

Hey all. Happy New Year! Wink

So what's the calculation for the necessary hash rate to solve 1 BTC per day? I lost my saved link to the site for it. Tongue

Do you mean one block or one bitcoin? You need 7.5PH to average 1 bitcoin per day. You need about 95PH to solve one block per day...

WOW, the diff has risen since last I solo mined.
95PH for a block. Just nutso. Can't even hit that with a rental anymore. WOW..

Good luck guys!
