The only pool is not down but I am mining with a cloud service and since yesterday I had to restart the miner several times, because the pool does not mark anything. I can see the accepted shares in the miner but in the pool there is no active worker. This same happens sometimes with the pool of ocminer and never happens with the other pool of other currencies. When it begins to fail appear in the miner some red lines saying a stratum connection failure. My speed test assures that it is not problem of my side because I have 1ms ping, 387Mbps down and 385Mbps up.




I have also noticed this with my miners, some of my miners start mining fine, but sometimes the miner are just not getting any accepted shares. It will then stay like this forever untill I restart the miner. When this happens, my workers goes offline in the dashbord of the pool. I use https://zoi.acc-pool.pw With cpuminer-opt-3.6.3-windows.  Also tested cpuminer-zoin with same result.

short example (no accepted shares in over 3 hours):



I am experiencing the same thing, i am using the cpuminer-opt-3.6.0-win

Intermittant stratum connection problems are likely pool related.

No shares submitted is often because the difficulty is too high for a CPU miner. Most pools will drop a worker
if no shares are submitted for 5 minutes. Some pools have low difficulty ports for CPU miners but most use
vardiff to automatically adjust the difficulty to ensure shares are submitted regularly. If this is failing it's likely
a pool issue as well.
