Yeah you can't ping them - there's nothing I can do about it either.
AWS LightSail doesn't have the option to enable ICMP
Yeah this is AWS so hopefully way more reliable than the old SG server that I got rid of due to having problems with it 3 days in a row back in Jan

However, going via SG is not ideal if you are close to another node.
In your case - only being 10ms difference, use JP first.

As the title (and first post) now shows - I've added back an SG node for mining in Singapore
I've also added an alias of us.kano.is to point to stratum.kano.is in case anyone tries to mine to us.kano.is
Mine on!

I've spoken to sidewinder - he was well above the limit when he found the block.
We've not decided yet - he wants more large miners too - better for him if he's not the only one high up there

OK to try get a few more to join like those in the last couple of days ...
... I've updated the first post details of the 10 BTC giveaway.
Anyone in the 2PH to 5PH range also gets a 0.2 bonus under the condition of the rules
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=789369.0

OK updated it to 110+ PH
Those earlier PH that come on and a new ~5.8 PH miner on-board Woo!

Just to manage expectations out there for those still ramping up, if you've been mining here this whole block (<~200%), and we crack this thing soon, your payout might "seem" less than you're expecting if you don't have a strong understanding of how the 5Nd works. (Maybe Padrinogtr can explain it to you )

Just have faith in the fact that we all wouldn't have stuck around after the delayed gratification of the ramp up period if it wasn't worth it. Plus, you don't lose anything during the ramp up.

Trust me: It pays to mine here.

Ha funny - trying to scare people with incomplete statistics
Now try comparing the numbers with your favourite PPS pool

Top "Block Statistics" table shows the 'over time' average results for the pool
... and there's only one in there that's below 100% PAPPS - 100 blocks - ~6 months.


See, when you don't understand what the numbers mean, you make stupid posts like you have

You wont find a single PPS pool that's paid over 105% for the past 3.5 years.
Or how about over 114% for the past year and a bit
You will, however, find them who have paid over 89% for the past 6 months though

The number go up and down, obviously, it's called ... a big word for you to read up about ... random.

lol i would guess he is trying to refer to the blocks PER month column resulting in 100% i cant imagine how bad a luck % we would have if we only found 1 block per month lol. me i start to get alittle cranky after 72 hours :/.

Sorry if it sounds like I'm splitting hairs here, but I only bring a mere ~3.5THs to the pool, and I still cover my electricity costs.

You may consider a bad month like February "electricity laundering", but, hey, any month that I can exchange electricity for Bitcoin gives me an opportunity to make more than the USD I paid my electric with.

I know this puts a positive spin on things; however, the fact remains that if you look at MinerGain.com, you'll see it's still more profitable here than the big pools like Slush.

Never forget that big, corporate pool miners pay a premium for daily payouts!

Mine on with Kano!

cryptostarusa=   7,713.58THs  awesome!

Hi, I am new here and have Newbie questions?

I set my T9 to mine in kano pool, but many questions poping up my head

1. to set my wallet address, the kano pool web site ask me for password, what password it should be? i don't remember to set password for my wallet address.

2. what is the minimum amount of BTC to get payment?

3. how i can see the amount of BTC produced/mined, in other words where i can see my miner progress?

4. It is normal that my worker higher invalid % than block %? checking on detail shows many stales?

thanks, i would appreciate any reply with answers  
 

I have read good reviews of this pool. Do the members recommend it for smaller miners? 114th/s?

Thanks

Welcome all! Chauski, thanx for helping out. Unfortunately, the forum does not let "newbies" post images. You can post images when
you they make you a Jr. Member.

Thank You for following my posts on Twitter! Maybe, I will try translating them into other languages, as it might reach a BIGGER audience.

Hi to all! Tell me please, where else can you attach the S9 miner? I understand that on your pool I have nothing to do with it, luck will be zero ... Please do not laugh very much, and I apologize for my Google-English)))) 

Hi,
I am new to the pool. 
I have joined few days back. I am cranking around 37Th/s

So just wanted to check how exactly are shifts and rewards calculated.

Here are my shifts on the last block.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/p1eb92ekp0xha2v/shifts.JPG?dl=0

And here is the reward.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/sf8e3wv1nnez7bl/reward.JPG?dl=0

Of course I dindt work all shifts for the block but reward looks so tiny for 3 days of cranking with approx 37Th/s. 

Thanks.

Welp, my plan took a dive. I'm gonna tweak my rules a bit and give it one last shot before I call it off because it's going to get lost in the pages anyway. I think the changes will open it up to a lot more miners who may have a good answer (including NEW miners).

BTC  5 day - 50 TH/s giveaway !!!! BTC


I want to see how well the small miners understand this and can explain it on a level where YOU(and others, including myself) fully understand it. I want that light bulb to go off and have ZERO doubt about how we are getting paid for our shares and I will donate 50 TH/s for a period of 5 days to a lucky winner.

My rules:

1- You have to have been mining on Kano's Pool with a hash rate between 1 and 20 TH/s
2- The rewarded hash has to be pointed at Kano's pool.  (to be confirmed by Kano)
3- You have to submit your answer in response to this quote and give 2 working examples including the payouts calculated.
4- padrinogtr will have to be able to explain his new understanding with his own example in response to the submitted answer and have the answer's accuracy verified by Kano.
5- New miners to the pool are welcome, though you will have had to have been here for at least the last block (this will help ramp your 5Nd up much sooner!!)

The 5 day 50 TH/s award will start as soon as I am able to see confirmation and have access to my controllers. I will of course need a worker name.
I understand this is dependent on some cooperation from others, but hey it's 50 TH/s on the line and I'm currently only running about 70 TH/s, so it's a big deal to me.

5 days - 50 TH/s .... don't let us down padrinogtr!!!!!! There was talk of others donating some hash too. If their offer is still good, that hash will be separate and in addition to the 50 TH/s I am donating.

*Of course, this is for fun and in the event of a hash rate failure, I will not be obligated to make it up as noted in prior promotions. I hope I'm not leaving out any details. I will stay active with the announcements as well as open to hearing some feedback or details that should be edited.


Thanks everyone and MINE ON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Kano,

Noob here with 15TH. Do you think my payouts would be similar to other pools? I like to support the smaller pools but havent dipped into your yet.

I'm surprised these smaller guys aren't going for that 50 TH/s reward.

The block must have distracted everyone. I'm not sure how man smaller miners pay attention to the forum and read it though........so in that case, let's increase the qualifications to 1TH/s - 15 TH/s and see if that attracts a few more.

Someone has to have an easy analogy they can share that helps them understand.

B-B-B-B-B-BLOCK MAN, BLOCK MAN, BLOCK MAAAAAN!!
