Hello guys, I'm still waiting for my Antminers to come and I'm planning to join Kano's pool. But before, I have some questions:
Assume I'd have an Antminer S9 (14 THs) and assume that the pool's hashrate stays at 45 PHs, would I get after the ramp up roughly the 14/45000 of every block found by the pool?
How can I calculate the average time needed by the pool depending on the pool hashrate to find a block?
Thanks in advance, I really like this thread and I'm looking forward to be part of it.
Average blocks per day on my pool calculator.
It defaults to the current pool hash rate when you first go to the page:
http://tradebtc.net/bitcalc.phpPool Average Blocks per Day: (currently 0.66)
How much you'll
expect to earn is 100% PPS * MeanTx% * 0.991 (pool fee)
i.e. if pool luck is 100%, then you expect to get 99.1% of the MeanTx% times 100% PPS
My calculator above gives 100% PPS * 0.991 if you enter your hash rate.
You'd multiply that by MeanTx% - which varies a lot

(there's also "BTC to expect per Day per TH/s:" near the top - that's based on 100% PPS)
How much you will
actually get, depends on pool luck.
If luck is above 100% then you'll earn more.
If luck is below 100% then you'll earn less.
Variance here is now quite high due to the low 45PH/s pool hash rate.
