T9+'s eat up way too much power, even with prices getting closer to 10,000 again. accept for todays bit of a downfall.  What are some of the thoughts on bch instead of btc mining now a days.  Does anyone know the difference in profits, like say 1 S9 mining BTC compared to one S9 mining BCH, which would make more? Any and all opinions welcome!  Even in solo mining?  Is there a way to make daily or even weekly profits from solo mining BCH or even BTC?  I've never gotten into even the most basic issues regarding solo mining.

Block!!$$

So I have no idea how it works really, I kinda do but not really.  The 5nd.....it seems to be increasing rather quickly lately compared to in the past.  Is this because of the forks and everything?  Also does anyone feel like the difficulty is going to be rising at this rate on a constant basis or can the diff actually go down at some point or just stop rising.  I don't know, if someone who knows about this stuff could explain it a bit that would be amazing!!!

5ND has been decreasing with more hash being pointed here.  More and more machines coming online = difficulty increasing.  Going to need some quiet weeks (or violent downturn in BTC price) to get things to flatten out or go negative. 

Thanks for the info my good sir!

Hey everyone!!!  First, hope you all are having good days and easy mining!!  I'm trying to expand my mining capabilities.  I have about 3000-3500 watts running for my 2 miners, possibly a tad less than that.  This is a constant state obviously.  I want to add more but the fuse box my house has is kind of a mess, and the wiring in this house is from 1988 so I have to be somewhat particular about how to mine in my house.  I was either thinking about rewiring certain things in my house to other circuit breakers in the breaker/fuse box and adding higher amp fuses to the box as well as to the main supply on the side of my house.  The main supply is not so much the issue though, we had that upgraded years ago for new A/C units and just to have our house safer we added a whole house surge protector.  The other thing I was thinking was going wherever, getting a secondary/auxiliary fuse box and either running lines from the regular fuse box to the Aux. one or running lines directly from the houses main feed to the auxiliary one.  I'm basically just looking for any advice, seeing if anyone else has done some of this (I also want to add more wall plugs that are directly from the new box), getting some idea of how much a mission like this would cost and if anyone has any suggestions on equipment that I should get for the job aka which aux fuse boxes are good, how high in amperage should I go with my houses main breaker on the side of my house and maybe what ways are better than or worse to wire the aux fuse box also things that I should avoid doing.  For anyone who wants to give some advice I'll love you forever.  I want to contribute to the mining process more and make mo' mowneeeeeeeees!

Another tiny one - but this was REALLY tiny.
The block was 35 seconds after the previous network block and the txn mempool was pretty empty - the block size was only 34,103 bytes!
There were quite a few small blocks before it, but that was the smallest in the last 10 network blocks.
Well - a block is a block Smiley
Smaller size = less BTC?

hmmm, all makes sense, i guess i joined at a really shit moment and got screwed by the 600% block, thanks for all the info. Ill stick around and see how it goes. Someone mentioned to me to calm down but Im here asking questions because I am here for the long run so Im going to stick around for the long run.

Also, take solace in the knowledge that we all got screwed by that 600% block...and we all band together as a tight-knit group in that misery.  We also dance with joy when we have those days that we hit 4 or 5 blocks in quick succession and make more than anyone will believe! Cheesy

we also band together and just dance and dance and dance for no absolute reason.  I did a crap ton of dancing tonight just got home from Excisions paradox tour concert in my town and I can't hear my miners tonight!!!  Smiley lol

Are we waiting until all of the confirmations are complete.  I ask because the last few blocks I got the BTC immediately after we cracked the block & at 17 confirmations now still the payment is not seen in my wallet.  Just curious if you (Kano) changed any of the parameters on how the payments are sent or when they're sent or if we have to wait for another block to be found before we get paid or what's going on?  Thanks in advance!
I send out the Payout transaction when the block Matures.

In Bitcoin, I can't spend a block until it's reached +101 confirms (nor can anyone else)

See Help->Payouts for when you'll see it in your wallet.

Ok that's what I was partially assuming, thank you kano san!

I won't mess with anything other than BTC and or LTC.  Just bought 2 little LTC miners I'm gonna play with along with getting enough electric to get my E9+ to run with those and my S9 & 721 in my house, I'm def maxing out my breaker box lol have extension cords running through holes I bored out of the walls to get to different rooms to use other breakers.  But yes forget about all of this, it's rocket time!

Hey so I definitely want to contribute more to this pool, one of my miners is down at the moment but that's not what I'm talking about anyway.  I just want to know if there's another place besides Ebay that's trust worthy to purchase miners?  Even Ebay has sellers that i'd never buy from but a lot of them are decent people.  Between all the scam sites that supposedly sell miners (for quadruple what the manufacturer sells them for) and that Alibaba website where it's like direct from china I have so clue where to look besides ebay.  I mean there's always a chance of hitting the 1/2 hr window for a new batch up at Bitmain but I've never been able to hit that window.  Please if anyone has any suggestions...love ya forever.  lol  Hope all is well guys, mine on!  All Hail Kano

My patience are great, I am here to stay. Just curious how it all works, that's all.

Here's how it works, simplified:

1. Point miners at Kano
2. Dance
3. Profit

https://media2.giphy.com/media/XeVyj2IW8i7tK/giphy.gif

This is the exact dance I do daily for the block Gods!

I'll tell you though, I really don't like how the prices of miners has skyrocketed, I love that Bitcoin has well, did and now kinda normalized at a pretty good figure.  These miner prices are insane though.  Less than half a year ago a Avalon 741 was marketed at like 800 bucks from Canaan itself and now even Canaan changed the price of the always unavailable 741 to like 1500 or something and it only runs about half the speed a s9 does, maybe a little more than half but you get my point hopefully.  Sorry for the rant, I just really want to acquire some new miners but I have bills and habits and activities to mind.  If anyone knows of a place I can get miners for a better price please let me know either PM me or reply here doesn't matter.  Mine on Kano affiliates, mine on.
