actually, when was the last block found by eligius?

just tried pointing at antpool... getting two or three out of three strat addr down, so i guess they are having problems.
glad it isnt ourequip.

and here from someone else who has done a much more thorough job....

thanks much for this..     https://poolprofit.io/en/

Try reactivating just the second miner first..

im guessing it will level out around 75000 so im not letting it burn a hole in my pocket. i just dont spend it for the present

i dont think satoshi would be likely to lose his keys.

btc has established itself as a medium of exchange and a store of value.
if the value dropped dramatically i would exploit the situation to buy, confident of a recoup.
when people ask me "what if it drops to zero" i tell them "that is the best time to buy."

Wish i'd never spent any of it...   : /

bitmains sister company, btc.com pays block reward (pps) and tx fees averaged (something like pplns) out to miners but is
nowhere forthcoming as to what percentage they charge to the miners as a pool fee.
I inquired of them and received a detailed explanation of tx fees to the transactor instead.
anyone know how much of a bite btc.com actually takes from the miners?

last they responded me saying nmcwas converted to btc and added to balance..
i havent kept track so IDK but the nmc is trivial and im not concerned.
its typical bitmain behavior.
they've never failed to pay what they owe,
but their system of keeping the tx fees is a lousy holdover from the days when tx fees didn't amount to much.
recently tx fees have been running over 6btc per block! so i would suggest mining where they pay them out.

what are your results with btc.com ??

one attempt at a list

ha.. we trying that in u.s. too..

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=104664.msg26112365#msg26112365

for some insight anyway...

yes, same problem.. routine i guess... they pay lousy anyway..
switch to a pool that doesnt pocket your tx fees.. you'll do 20% better

Expected Time to Block:   66d 14h 17m 55s...............pffffffffffffft!!

i have infinite patience, but....

and to echo another persons perplexed query, why in blue blazes would anybody mine at antpool? or those other three big fat pools with lousy payout policies?
i am seriously curious. if you are one of those people, please leave a note of explanation for the rest of us. are we missing something?
this is not a snide put down. it's a serious question. why take such a large loss and lend power and BTCBTC to corporate avarice threatening the base principals of us all?



PLEASE don't mine at pools with a poor payout/fee policy. It only feeds the monster.

i dusted the dirt off an older s1 and am running it at Kano's pool. Kano.is
If I can get the accumulated grime off of another old s1, i am going to run it solo on solo.ckpool.org  [thanks os2sam]
  [i wouldnt object to a big fat 12.5BTC if i get lucky, and in that case CK deserves his 1% for the help]


a word on the old s1 s....    they ran for 7 months unattended nonstop, then when a shelf collapsed they fell 3 ft onto a stone floor, i put them back and they kept on running.
today they generat 45c per day BTC and they burn 88c per day electric. if the solo unit hits, it will more than cover its cost in used plutonium.
