Evil beware: We have waffles!
heh! Wadda ya know. Just checked and one of the blocks found on KanoPool today was from a user with 0.89TH/s! I guess the pool does still take maybe even as low as s1/3's?
But talk about a small % of payout...

How would you handle Whales dropping in to the pool and swamping out the small fry?

Actually, not sure if it would even still like s1's or Sidehacks's upcoming Pod (>150GHs). Does it?
There would be no lower limit to hashrate, but it means some miners may end up with extremely small payouts. There would be no reserve whatsoever and no transactions for payouts with everything being paid out proportionately with each block find as a generation transaction - kind of like an extended version of what happens with this current solo pool. Of course if it only attracts small miners it may never get large enough to have consistent block finds but at least if/when a block is found everyone will get their share. It would have similar no-frills statistics as per the solo pool but with the extra information of expected reward.

What do miners think?
For all the reasons you gave I say go for it.
Yes is nice pointing my Sidehack sticks at the solo lottery but -- I can see low hash rate folks wanting a shot at pool earnings.
As you said, Kano loves my multi-THs s7, 9, A741's, etc., but forget pointing sticks at it.

If -- no WHEN I solve a block, will the good news appear in my stats at http://solo.ckpool.org/users/? Other than monitoring cgminer, is there anyway to know that I hit the jackpot? Or do 12.5 BTC just magically appear in my wallet?
The money will magically appear in your wallet before any other notification since you get it as soon as it's solved directly to your wallet address.

I wonder if there'd be a demand for a no-frills pool like this one for regular miners that does ordinary PPLNS payments? There seems to be little demand for new pools these days but perhaps there is a need for something people can set and forget like this solo pool that will take miners of any size and create coinbase payments like the solo pool does with a baseline ckpool code fee like 0.5%. I'd rather not take any hashrate away from the existing small pools but perhaps it might encourage more people to not automatically choose large pools if they have small hashrates, and might go some more way towards helping activate bitcoin core changes. What do miners think?


you are basically talking about kanos pool lol


No I'm not. His pool is not a no-frills pool, having full featured statistics and a proper web GUI front end, nor is it signalling segwit, and is higher fee and does not pay out minuscule miners. Would it be competing? Yes and no, since they'd be offering something different.

Will be restarting the pool shortly to reset the pool's best share values and incorporate a minor bugfix. Your best diff values will be reset along with this. It turns out that it resets the shares after a block is found but because of DE's remote shares being sent after the block solve data, the remote share may be seen after the blocksolve setting the best share again. This happened since I sped up the block propagation code between the pools dramatically. This means I may have to manually reset it when a DE block occurs again in the future, but I've built provision for manually resetting best shares to be able to do it without restarting now.

EDIT: All complete.

Hey =)
You will be informed in this thread if there is a solved Block for your wallet adress. Or you'll see it in your wallet first.  Wink

For those wondering about the pool's best share value, it is now showing the best share of the last block found. If most people prefer to have the old functionality back, please tell me and I'll code it in and restart the pool to adopt that.

Wow, Congratulation to you! Look at these Hashrates... i think he ordered some Rentals. Nice to see that this is working so far. I tried it two times with bad luck   Sad
But i'll do it one more time this week i think   Grin

Good luck to you all

Just pointed my x5 2Pacs here.  Was piling up the satoshi's at Slushpool but figured I might as well roll the dice and go for it all.  Smiley

Please share your highest share Bitdrunk,  curious to see how high of a share it gets  Grin   after youre done soloing of course
I checked this morning and it said Best Share - 7.19M.  That's the highest I've ever noticed it.

Getting up there, next hit that block! Roll Eyes

The best I ever achieved with a U3 was 1b, that was when you needed 120b or so, good fun though Cheesy

reality is what you think it is
Hello, sorry for the noob question. I've searched this thread and did not find the answer.

What is the significance of ""shares", "bestshare" and "bestever"?

Thank you.

AFAIK   "bestshare" here is shown for those who want more statistics. It shows how close you have ever been to having found a block.
It's a solo pool where you 'go big or go home', so the number of submitted shares doesn't matter - either you hit a block and you get all of it or you don't, that's it.



And Friday lottery begins again. GL to me and everybody else here!
