I’m starting to question the pay on this pool. It’s way lower per hour / day then whattomine show. I chose hourly as difficult can skyrocket in a day. I have 6000K on this pool but I’m getting paid less than 60% of whattomine show. I understand variance, luck etc, but this is way off. Even the estimate income on nano pool shows super low numbers and my 6hrs average is almost the same as the current hash rate so it’s not due to that. Pool operator, please check on this, other people are reporting Suprnova pay is higher as well. I’m going to put some miners over there and compare. On the brighter side of things, good job on updating the pay, it’s coming in faster now, but can we have the option of selecting how much before it starts paying out vs many small chunks?
Hourly payments may vary a lot. There are blocks that not mined in 20
minutes. I’d say even day income should vary with 2.5 minutes block time.
There is no option to change payout limit automatically, but you can email
the support to set individual limit for your account.
We’ll be adjusting the default limit too.
I’m comparing my daily income against another friend of mine who have 25% less hash then me on Suprnova.cc , yet he’s making way more than me. I think something is not right on this pool. I’m going to move to Suprnova.cc . Feel free to check my hash rate history and compare to what I should be getting paid base on those history date / difficulty. I’m not even getting 60% of it. Something is fishy here.

I agree with the above. Nanopool used to be great a few days back when suprnova had a lot of problem. I put in my hash rate on whattomine using current difficulty from explorer.zcha.in, and it turns out I got paid just about half of what it should be. Keep in mind that the difficulty has been rising, so I got paid not even half of what I should be expecting!
Yeah, initially I said it must be ramp up time, then I said must be difficult, so I waited over 2 days. Then finally I said wait, it’s best to compare apples to apples with another miner on another pool. Even if pool luck sucks, that’s usually just a 10-15% variance at most for large pools. He have 25% less hash then me and over 40% more pay then me. Then I compare the whattomine.com number with the nanopool estimate for the same level of hash and it still show over 30% less! There’s definitely some issue, it may be slightly off due to more conservative estimates but this is way way off. Everyone should check their rate and compare. This is not small money and I’m no rookie as I have 6000 H/s on Nano pool so that equals to a huge chunk difference especially during the previous days when ZEC income was so high.
The block reward is rising too… And looks like we are showing calculated
solution rate a bit upper, than it really is.
But,we really found less blocks as we should have in last 24 hours. Only
65, while should have 85+.
We’ve rechecked the back-end and updated all the mining nodes to 1,0.1
wallet version. Probably there were some issues with 1.0.0 version, as it
was less stable.
@nanopool I snet you an email on pool job distribution
I will like to start a off convo with u on that issue
Since it’s a Poisson distribution, if 90 blocks is what you should average for a day like yesterday, then you should expect getting only 65 blocks once every 17 days like that. It’s possible you lost 30% of your customers in the past 24 hours because it’s a Poisson process.
As an estimate use 2 x SQRT(N)) as how much higher or lower it can go once every 20 instances of the time period (or volume) in which N occurs.
I have a question for all u folks mining on nanopool
I been seeing the same job assigned to multiple workers
is that correct are we all working/solvin the same job .
over at supnova , i do see each worker getting unique job assigments
I decided to stop using nanopool and pay the 1% fee over @ suprnova
Job ID is internal pool’s variable to detect what job was sent to the user. Each stratum connection has it’s own unique nonce, so everyone mine it’s own job.
We are using job id to determine block number and transactions set.
I don’t know what is the Suprnova setup.
BTW: Number of mined block in 24 hours moving to the right value after updating wallets to 1.0.1
thanks for the reply , your job numbers are pretty hi , I thinks its hard to believe that all all the straum are assigning identical job number to the workers as you would figured if u were using a global sequence or if each straum ahs is own sequence why would be totally different.
I have figure out if i want to bring my bandwdth back to nano
not sure at the moment
Job ID do not affect mining. It’s not used in block hash. Unique job part is sent on subscribe connection method and stored on server in connection handling object.
Please, check the miner code to have a better understanding of the work distribution process.
If it was the same work for every user, the pool mining power would be equal to one most powerful GPU.
Its not the miner i have to read , but the pool divvying up the jobs 
But you’ll see the miner does nothing with the job id, only sends it back to the server =)
Hey @nanoPool where is the code , I would love to read parts of it
Now I have a stupid question
how more efficient is a gpu miner vs a cpu for zcash ?
We’ve used a nheqminer build to test the stratum implementation:
It depend on CPU and GPU models.
Please, check this thread about CPU mining:
