BTFG Burst Pool: The Pool for Small Miners
-
@zack ah ok. Feeling a bit more confident about it now. I assumed you can upgrade all at once - but now I understand it's gradual - unless you have multiple PCs which I don't.
Thanks dude.
-
@Seed88_ yes it's gradual .. but you still can force plots to starts from where the first ends.. no multiple pc's needed
for example:
plot1 >> from nonce 000001 >> to 001000
plot2 >> from nonce 001000 >> to 002000
plot3 >> from nonce 002000 >> to 003000that's how it works.
-
@zack I see - is that so the nonces are not repeated between drives?
I'll try and figure out what to edit. Last question, I'm using an I7 2600 - would using my GPU to plot be much faster? I have a GTX 970
-
@Seed88_ i'm not an expert in this .. but i guess your cpu would be faster .. you may give it a try and compare nonces/min.
-
If I may add too take the day or two and plot the biggest plot you can. 400gb is okay but if you can increase it better in the long run. My i5-4570 does 5800 nonces/min so I plot 3tb (2.72tb) in less than 2 days. My 950gt can plot better however I like the xplotter and cpu for now. (means not an expert with gpu's) A week as gone by and I managed to plot 3 3tb drives. Done

@Valareos seems as if my miner can't connect to the server, what's happening atm :?

-
@Hitti2 I don't mind the downtime, I like this pool due to the help for small miners
-

I have such poor luck with pools lol :(
-
@impulse @falconCoin You need to check your pending (which is on the website). You dont get paid daily, it is paid when you reach 20 burst, or every saturday, whichever comes first. To check pending, go to http://burst.btfg.space, wait for the new block, and submission of dl, then on top left box, find your address and look at the last column
-
I will be updating the info above, im waiting on certain things though.. however.. here is our Manual: https://steemit.com/btfg/@valareos/btfg-burst-pool-manual

If you look up on this forum a bit you will find why this was so big.
Long story short, on that day a bug in the code caused payouts to fail, AND all pending disappear. It was bad. It didnt even record payments it should have made.
I fixed the code, then waited 10 rounds and snapshoted everyones All-Round shares at that point. I then distributed the ENTIRE btfg pool account, minus buffer, to those who mined the last 10 rounds by round share, with minimum of 20 burst. Those who hadn't minded in last 10 rounds but were on list also got 20 burst, which drained the account to nothing, but took care of our miners
Then, a day later... We won the Ant Lotto, so about 15k burst was added to the pool and distributed at the next block find. Your big payment came from one of those.

so i was earning 20-30 BURST with almost 4TB?
i was earning that a day just shy of 2TB
well either way thanks for explanation

....--->> wouldn't this be a part of the whole porting shares to small miners conversation?? - I think most of the pools are setting up new parameters to help... I mean there was a convo about the huge giants going it alone.
-
Our pool also pays out more than double the block reward most of the time too :P because of the way I got it configured I dont keep the dust created by rounding errors, and they DO build up!

----Fast block or corrupted file?----
