miningpoolhub,

1) can you add local-time converting on graph page?
2) can you add graph page for miners who using algorithm ports.

do you have some type of ETA on when the coins for claymore dual miner will be added?

Been going crazy why my eth share rate was down for the last 3days. Going nuts trying to find out what's wrong. Finally tried to force my miner to mine on ethermine which is my fail over. It turns out miner was fine. MPH just increased difficulty by a big margin and its causing very erratic share rates and very bad for smaller rigs like mine.

I would like to request that difficulty be lowered to its precious settings so smaller rigs like mine would not be forced off the pool. Mining in ethermine reminded me of how MPH was before difficulty was increase 2x. I like MPH and would like to stay but may need to leave if pool difficulty keeps rising.

I'm not sure about target. But each of your share has a equivalent amount of share value. Each share has different weight depending on what the pool set as it's difficulty. So even if you shared 10 doesn't mean it has more value than 8 if the 8 share has more difficulty.

Round shares means the avg expected share before a pool usually closes and gets a reward. So if it's above 100% meaning pool is having low luck of finding a share. Sometimes pool has better luck sometimes lower luck. But ultimately it will even out and be close to 100% by average in the long run.

I hope I clarified a few points for you. And recently MPH has been increasing difficulty for almost all the coins. It's affecting our hashes severely. If this continues might actually have to find a new pool. Still waiting for the owner to respond to my message. If I do not get a favorable response might have to try another pool. Too bad I had high hopes for MPH. 

yeah reported hashrate is a bummer - but - to compare use your 24 hours income and compare with whattomine - fees, or do your own calculation.  difficulty does not move as much now so it should be close.  then go to "blocks" and see luck for the last 24 hours, adjust for that % and you should get really close to what you should get if luck is 100%.  tell us your results, I find repoted hashrate to be erratic but 24hour credit seems to be okay...at least compared to all other eth pools i've been on. 

the same situation in FTC MPH I described several posts before. Stratum/worker diff is higher than it should be and it is not good for small miners (other pools set worker diff about 32-64 and sometimes up to 128, MPH gives about 200-300 and sometimes up to 500 for my 630+kH/s rate). MPH reports about 85% of my real workers submitted hashrate and the same with rewards. Switched to another FTC pool until the explanation and solution from MPH will be there.

MPH owner has been nothing but good to members. Usually listening to us when we ask for something so I'm still hoping he would show up an fix the current difficulty problems... He's been MIA for a while though. No coms at all. But he's been working in the background and got the graphs back. Hopefully we hear from him soon. Even with the recent hit on profitability as a show of support I stayed. But can't stay forever if nothing is done. Others are beginning to realize it as well. Pool hash rate is down quite a bit even if total hash rate has increased. That's on top of claymore using MPH recently as primary pool.

Hmm.. interesting.





Sorry about Google and privacy things.
I agree that privacy is important. Recaptcha isn't ideal but it's better than opening brute force password inserts.

Recaptcha is the most secure brute force blocking tool AFAIK. I heard that it even tracks mouse movements and detects whether it's human or bot. Do you know better solution?
Maybe try private browsing from firefox or chrome. It would leave cookie while using but cookies will be flushed when you close that browser.




2FA is another concern. When hacker get someone's email account and asks 2FA secret key to be reset, what does pool have to do? Send new 2fa via email? Then 2fa is just same as email account security.
Pool cannot ask their passport or utility bill to confirm their real house address.
Will you send me passport photo to reset your 2fa? And how can pool verify that the passport is real as pool didn't receive passport before from same man.
What happens when pool just ignores 2fa reset? People will shout that pool is scam.

So 2fa should be able to reset via email at last. It will bring nearly same level of email account security then.
I would add 2fa authentication but it will work as same as PIN security level.


Also I believe that your login session is not related to recaptcha thing. recaptcha only validates at login page.





Yeah I'll check. Actaully I didn't know XLR.





Hmm.. I'll make UI better one by one.

First I'll fix email notification.
DB upgrade is scheduled too.
Then I'll prepare for zcoin lyra2z algo change hardfork.
After that, I can add coins.






What coin is stuck?

Maybe launching exchange site would be better. 





No we don't keep that data. Sorry.






Yeah, I belive you can mine x11 with ASIC.
Already there's many baikal ASIC miners mining here.

Miningpoolhub ran monetaryunit pool few months ago and closed due to its frequent fork issue. (It happened before MUE's x11 switch)


I'll open pools if profitability is good and trade volume is big too.
There's some low traded coins that rise up like rocket and go away within few minutes.

Higher difficulty makes it harder for small rigs to find shares.  If it's high enough and you're switching between coins to mine the most profitable, it's possible you might find no shares in 10 minutes, 30 minutes, or more.  Without shares, you don't get paid and you're just wasting electricity.

Lower difficulty, OTOH, means that larger rigs spend more time communicating with the pool and less time mining.

Ideally, the stratum server would adjust each miner's difficulty to something lower for smaller rigs and something higher for larger rigs, so that everybody's finding shares at about the same rate (I've heard one share every 10 seconds as a reasonable target, though you could maybe go as high as a minute).  This also tends to improve the accuracy of whatever statistics the pool supports.

I'm having very spotty runs with Mining Pool Hub.  I'm buying hash power from NiceHash.  I've had some runs for ETH where I've made 8-10% and I've had a few where I lost a few % and I had one where I lost more than 10%.  I'm currently doing two orders for Zcash and despite running with a very low price it looks like I'm going to lose maybe 15-25%.   The only thing that was really different with my huge loss runs were I ran at a high speed limit.  Not sure if that's a problem or not.

And why does the Sharerate meter on MPH max out at 1?
