Thank you vanityaddrs!!!! Please also check out the mobile app for our pool to help you keep an eye on your upcoming 100P of hash rate!

[vanityaddrs]

You're most welcome! I will check out that mobile app, a very nice addition to pool tools and insights.

Time to get this party started!!!

There's an upcoming summoning of 100P to the pool to check for stability and routine stuff like that; I'll share the results with the pool operator.

We will have a look at the most recent photovoltaic panels as well with battery storage for here; wish I could get my hands on Tesla industrial gear. I think Musk was willing to donate one to South Australia at one point. Their cost is near 41c kWh; quite ridiculous.

"Australia receives thousands of times more solar energy from the sun each year than all fossil fuel use combined. We directly use only about one millionth of this at the moment as commercial energy." - Andrew Blakers, Director of the Centre for Sustainable Energy Systems (CSES) , Australian National University.

Solar PV is now cheaper than both domestic and commercial electricity from the grid. It's something we will have to look at. Australia could be in a near world-leading position within a few years.

Fantastic! We are excited to have your hash rate on our pool and look forward to having your feedback so we can improve further. Please do keep us posted.

Hello
My mining hardware located in Moscow Russia
I use asics antminer S9
I mining BTC with your standard server stratum+tcp://connect.pool.bitcoin.com:3333

From yesterday see too much increase autodiff on pool.
If before it was 13-30K autodiff, now it's 130-500K autodiff of shares pool sends to asics
What happend? For asic 15-16Th it's too much autodiff, for one share it can takes 5 minets or more

Waiting you comments
Best regards

This problem has just been fixed. We adjusted the autodiff settings to a lower amount.
Thanks for the report.

Is there anyone else that had a BCH balance in their pool account at the BCH/BSV split? I had a significant amount of BCH in there (at least significant to me heh) and I am interested in withdrawing the BSV to sell it. I left the BCH sitting there thinking the split wouldn't result in anything of value, but things never seem to go as I expect.

If there is an admin, can you manually extract the BSV associated with my account and either send it to me or trade it for BCH and add the BCH to my account? I am not sure many other people are in my situation because I don't see any questions about this on the forum.

This is answered in our FAQs:

We don't support the BSV fork and it's unavailable for withdrawal.

We ask users to withdraw funds in advance of any network forks and chain splits, since we cannot guarantee to support all forks.

Do you think it's worth investing in cloud mining now? I found a good company, but the unstable course does not bother me much.

Do you think it's worth investing in cloud mining now? I found a good company, but the unstable course does not bother me much.

It is not profitable to invest in cloud mining. The pricing per TH ensures that you will only earn back maybe 1/2 of your original investment by the time your hashrate becomes unprofitable and your contract is cancelled. Meaning you lose half of your investment.

The only way to make a profit in cloud mining is starting a p2p cloudmining service.

All cloudmining companies, including Bitcoin.com know this, and in my opinion are looking at major class action suits in the future for deceptive advertising.
