Question

Last week we were approaching 1700 or maybe 1900 users it seems. How can we lose so many "users" so quickly. It seems like it was down to 1200, a drop of 500? now climbing back up again.
Thoughts on this?

Some of it is no doubt users that initially don't understand the ramp/5nd/payout system here at first and miss the daily payouts. Others may have been users that try out different pools. There really is no telling. For all we know some users were using multiple BTC addresses for workers and then created a user account instead. Who knows, maybe Kano. What I know is no matter what, we are growing in hashrate, and we are going to MINE ON!

The ckpool software gives you no control over a certain part of the user management so I can't stop users doing certain things.
Needless to say, the user count sometimes jumps high then back down again every so often.

The pool hash rate is what matters most, on the Pool->Graph, since that's each shift of accepted valid shares that could have found blocks.

Thanks for the reply! That helps. I see we picked up a big gun with cryptostarusa and 7570Th. Nothing wrong with that.
