I agree.  Antpool is far more stable than most pools I've tried, and it's luck is exactly the average that it should be.  I don't understand the problem people have understanding averages.

I would also like to point out that switching pools when luck is down will cost you money.  If you switch with every touch of bad luck, you're never at the pool long enough to see it average out, and are doing nothing more than shortchanging yourself.  If that's what you want to do, feel free.  I'll take your slice of the pie when the luck averages back up.

just ignore this guy, he never has anything good to say..
he obviously doesnt know how bitcoin works.. he always complains when a pool doesnt give him the amount that he thinks he should ALWAYS get.. which is above 100%
he has been in every pool thread saying the same thing, and then gets very offensive when called out.


AntPool is #2 in the whole network.. i definitely does not suck, the ALL TIME % is right where it should be.. maybe even a little higher as its currently at 102%.

i think the only other pool to come close to that is westhash, they claim their ALL TIME % is 101.94%.. i believe it tho as they have times where people over pay for hash and it raises the avg up a lot..

edited, i was looking at the wrong tab on westhash.

Is the "Status" screen frozen.  It seems like the count on block confirmations is not progressing for nearly an hour that I have been watching.

Anyone else notice this?

I understand what you are saying but find it hard to believe.  What is the blockchain site where this can be verified?

Might learn something new today!

Cool!  Finally back on-topic...

Those 13 second blocks make me smile.

Right.  Where are you mining?

I believe that a private IP is given to miners with petahash+ hashing power.  I've seen other pools do it, I presume as a mechanism designed to keep VIP users from being affected by DDOS attacks on the public IPs.  Please feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

Baaahaaahaaa!!!
