I see that Zpool uses Cloudflare but the API response is not cached. I think you could easily cache it for 1 minute as I don't think it's that crucial to have realtime data (1 minute is close to realtime anyways). I know that in Cloudflare the shortest time for Edge cache TTL is 2 hours but you have the option "Respect existing headers" so on the server you could have 1 minute set.

Also, I just got an Error 524 timeout error so I guess the web server is not able to handle the amount of traffic it gets. You should enable caching dynamic content on Cloudflare as you don't have user generated real time content. On Cloudflare it's under Page Rules, you set a rule for *.zpool.com/* and set Cache Level to Cache Everything so it will cache your html content as well and your php processes won't die or you won't run out of cpu or memory.

You might run into some issues however with the Wallet subpage as "http://www.zpool.ca/?address=" will be served to everybody with the same content so you might have to remove the address history or any other content which doesn't have unique URL.

Really?! It's on the frontpage, 2nd row:

Alot of coins returned 0 rewards for all blocks in the past 60-80 minutes on different algos: blake2s, blakecoin, c11, equihash, keccak, lyra2v2, neoscrypt, skein, x17, xevan

Any explanation?

Haven't paid attention to this previously but if this is happening regularly no wonder that the MiningPoolHub daily income prediction and the actual income don't match. As I said a few days ago, I'm earning about 1/3 of the expected income. BTC's price has nothing to do with it, it's calculated by what the API is reporting and multiplied with my speeds.

Answered just a few posts ago. It's also on the first page.

So that is the explanation why even mining the most profitable algos with MultiPoolMiner I get half or 1/3 the expected income over 24 hours?

I'm no expert but wouldn't make sense to adjust profitability by taking into account the time needed to find a block or simply multiply the profitability with poolhash/networkhash ratio?

I get that but the pool is reporting bad data:


So we know the earnings in BTC per GH / MH / KH (depending on algo) from which is easy to calculate the estimated earnings for my speed. However my earnings are way less. MultiPoolMiner also logs past estimates evey minute and makes an average so over a long period of time so it's pretty accurate even considering fluctuations in profitability. MPM also mines the most profitable algos and almost always there's a few around 0.00025

Yes, I'm tracking the unpaid BTC and once in a while I write the time and balance into a spreadsheet calculating the elapsed time and balance delta. From that I calculate the 24 hours earning. MultiPoolMiner is getting every algo's earnings from Zpool's API and calculates my earnings based on a previous benchmark speeds (which get updated every minute so they become very accurate mining speed measurements) and also makes an average of earnings reported by Zpool as well. So it becomes pretty accurate after a few days. Usually it's around 0.00028 ±19% (0.00023-0.00033) BTC per day and that is what I was getting about weeks ago but since then my earnings went down to about 1/3 which is not profitable at all anymore.

So my question is why is this huge earnings difference from 2 weeks ago. Is there some bug in the profitability calucation on Zpool's side or on the exchange?

I got paid 0.00201994 BTC an hour ago so I guess it's 0.002



I'm using MultiPoolMiner for several Zpool algos and the daily average for me is around 0.00029. About 2 weeks ago was fine but since then it dropped significantly (at around the NiceHash hack). I started writing down the Total Unpaid balance into a spreadsheet every day and by calculating the deltas for the timeframes I'm getting only 0.0001 BTC daily which is way less than expected for an overclocked GTX 1060.

crackfoo could you give an explanation for this massive difference?

Any info about exchanges?

Why is that thread locked?! What if somebody has questions about anything else than mining?

Vardiff or manual diff would be nice. I'm getting new works but not submitting any shares.
