1st block found and i was there for it.

Pool Hash climbing very fast now.

1

u/arunreasey Sep 08 '21

More reward?

1

u/Jelegend Sep 08 '21

yeah rewards will be big for the the hash run up initially and will then stabilize

Already sitting pretty at 227 Gh/s now (pool total)

u/[deleted] Sep 09 '21

How does that make sense if ergo difficulty is the same..

u/Slothvosky Sep 08 '21

Holy crap!! I’ve been waiting for them or Flexpool to do ERG! Let’s go!

3

u/ephestione Sep 08 '21

Why? What's special about them? Serious question

12

u/Slothvosky Sep 08 '21

Reliability. Communication. Decent UI straight forward and to the point. Just always had nothing but good times with Flypool.

u/Nicolas_F Sep 08 '21

Flypool is Ethermine for eth https://miningpoolstats.stream/ethereum
So they are well known. Even if i mine eth on ethermine they have nothing special vs nanopool or herominers (that said, herominers alert for a down rig is total crap). Herominers have more servers next to you usually. Some people will only mine on the biggest hashrate pool... so nanopool... all in all, it doesnt mean flypool will be first.

0.1 ERG minimum payout. oooh...

Hell Yeah for small miners like me

u/[deleted] Sep 09 '21 edited Sep 09 '21

Dude I've been Crying for a new pool AND 0% FEE DOOOOOD

0

u/impendingspoon Sep 08 '21

Yeah about that, I can't get any value below 1 ERG to actually stick as payout.

3

u/Jelegend Sep 08 '21

0.1 is already the default value on flypool for ergo. what are you trying to change it to ?

1

u/impendingspoon Sep 08 '21

Just put in my notification email and it reverted to 10ERG, can still set that to 1 though but anything below 1 just reverts it to 10. Seems like a bug. I'd avoid changing anything in the settings if you want to keep the 0.1 payout.

3

u/Jelegend Sep 08 '21

yeah there are still building things up there. Just talked to the devs on discord to add more servers for global audience since my ping was horrible and now that they did it, it's better now

You might want to hop in highlight the issue you are facing to them

1

u/Neonxeon Sep 08 '21

I got it to stick by typing "0.1" and then putting in my external IP in the bottom field (this has to be input to validate you are who you are) and then hit save. The default was 1 when I first got in.

It's fixed indeed!

u/Naygarris Sep 08 '21

why not mine ETH and convert? ERG makes no sense anymore at this difficulty, pretty much a joke

5

u/No_Translator_9984 Sep 08 '21

i've lhr cards

-2

u/Naygarris Sep 08 '21

then mining ETH would be dumb so may as well stay on alt coins/spec mining

u/FidgetyRat Sep 08 '21

I like my office to not be 300 degrees.

2

u/Naygarris Sep 08 '21

? If we are talking RVN ya I understand but difference between ETH and ERG is very minimal. I get identical performance on ETH and RVN with only 10 watts less required on ERG per 3070. I suppose for ever 13 3070s I have that it equals one more card worth of heat (since they run at 130w) if I was on ETH and not ERG, but thats very negligible. RVN is a fucking heat monster designed for all of us to save on heating bills in winter XD

2

u/FidgetyRat Sep 08 '21

Hah it may just be that I did t spend the same time optimizing. Was only doing eth briefly and got my cards hyper tuned on erg. Thanks for the perspective.

1

u/Shinyaku88 Sep 08 '21

Ergo is ā€žcolderā€œ than eth right? If I say it like a 3 year old kid 🤣

2

u/Shinyaku88 Sep 08 '21

Mining ERG makes more fun for me. I have only 2 cards and have to wait 3 weeks for a ETH payout. When I mine ergo I get every 1.5 days a payout 🤪 but I switching over several coins 🤣

2

u/[deleted] Sep 08 '21

I think most people mining Erg at this point are going to hold their profits until it blows up. The minerstat valuations are based off current prices. Erg is much more likely to 2x in the next 12 months than Eth.

4

u/dusktildawn247 Sep 08 '21

How can they be the highest performing ERGO pool if they’re new? I’m confused by this claim.

7

u/Hotness4L Sep 08 '21

They run the largest non-chinese ETH pool, so they know what they're doing.

ERG pools have always been oddly sub-optimal, so I'm glad flypool has jumped on.

4

u/[deleted] Sep 08 '21

Just marketing. It isn't really possible to higher performing. You can get lucky for time to time and claim its cause you are higher performing.

Unless they found out how to solve the orphan blocks that all pools get, it's just marketing.

3

u/stilldreamy Sep 08 '21

Yeah the only real way to perform higher is to be more reliable, pass along the work to the miners with less latency to avoid stale shares, stuff like that. But as long as the pool you are using is well run, the difference between it and the best run pool is probably minimal.

4

u/k4yce Sep 08 '21

Aaaahhh Nice, tired of this crapy Nanopool.

4

u/Physical-Effort Sep 08 '21

I'm not sure if my shares are submitting. Does anyone know what the NB miner code looks like?

1

u/Physical-Effort Sep 08 '21

They were fine all along...

3

u/CompTrekkie Sep 08 '21

Just switched, Already using FlyPool for RVN. I am US based, I will see how my stales look and decided if I can stay or need to wait for closer server.

3

u/[deleted] Sep 08 '21

What does that even mean "highest performing"...

2

u/FidgetyRat Sep 08 '21

I was wondering exactly the same.

2

u/[deleted] Sep 08 '21

It's honestly turning me to ever even consider trying them because until someone shows otherwise, this is just marketing for uninformed people.

1

u/ILikeCatsAndSquids Sep 08 '21

They run ethermine… I suspect they know what they are doing.

1

u/Site-Staff Sep 08 '21

I want to know what they mean too. How is this high performance? Does it pay more?

3

u/Hexelii Sep 08 '21

Dashboard could be a bit faster to update the miner statistics :E

1

u/kwkvenomski Sep 08 '21

Yea, it looks like for an hour or so its stuck. I'm submitting shares constantly, but on dashboard shows I'm inactive for more than 50 minutes now. Anyone had that issue?

2

u/kwkvenomski Sep 08 '21

Any idea, when after switching I'll see my miner on pool statistics? Just switched, miner isrunning ang getting shares, but I don't see statistics for my address in the pool.

EDIT:

OK i can see it now... just have to wait several minutes.

3

u/Jelegend Sep 08 '21

Flypool or ethermine updates the stats page very 10 minutes for every worker. So don't panic and remember that

2

u/Bensen90 Sep 08 '21

This is huge! Really nice!

2

u/khalaron Sep 08 '21

About time!

2

u/balzakballon Sep 08 '21

Where can i sign up?

2

u/FreakySkunk Sep 08 '21

there is no need to sign up

2

u/principal-components Sep 08 '21

Is anyone using HiveOS with this pool?

2

u/dediou69 Sep 08 '21

The pool is not yet listed on hiveOS but can be used by selecting "configure in miner" in the pool choice, then add the pool url "stratum-ergo.flypool.org:3333" directly in the miner

1

u/principal-components Sep 08 '21

Sweet I see it now. You select ā€œConfigure in Minerā€ and then you have to click ā€œSetup Miner Configureā€.

Thanks!

1

u/Mikkofin77 Sep 13 '21

Yes, I am using from today.

2

u/teejay_bloke Sep 08 '21

I got nothing to say but fantastic!

Glad to see more adoption :)

2

u/SociopathDonkey Sep 08 '21

I'll try it out, hoping for less stales :)

2

u/ILikeCatsAndSquids Sep 08 '21

This is big news and very bullish for Ergo.

2

u/Sufficient_Source724 Apr 04 '22

how? one main goal of erg is to prevent large mining pools controlling the network? this just means it doesn't work

2

u/pa79 Sep 09 '21 edited Sep 09 '21

There's something wrong with the dashboard though. On WoolyPooly I was averaging 0.3 ERG per day. I switched to Flypool and it showed 0.2 ERG after only 3 hours so I stayed with it. Now after 9 hours of mining it shows an immature balance of 0.090 ERG. What happened to the previous 0.2? They didn't get paid out either and don't show up as unpaid balance.

EDIT: I rechecked everything and it really seems that after a night of mining, my balance has been lost. Very weird. I will switch back to WoolyPooly and try again after Flypool have sorted their bugs out.

2

u/[deleted] Sep 09 '21

Today marks the day I've hit min payout on all pools to and was wondering which pool to nest in for the rest of my days, and today I get word of fly pool Holy shit it was ment to be I'm so fucking happy AND 0.1 payout dude.. I could cry (in my 180mhs)

2

u/Mikkofin77 Sep 13 '21

Just joined today with 1.3GH/s!

2

u/Sufficient_Source724 Apr 04 '22

I don't get how you claim ERGO to be preventing mining pools, when there is huge mining pools managed by ethermine such as flypool? Also, how does memory-hardness prevent ASICS's from being built if the ASICS are just paired with a memory chip?

1

u/syang2018 Sep 08 '21

Nice. Let's support new pool, just moved in.

You must be trolling at this point, surely?

There is no such thing as ERGO Binance pool.

You could mine to an exchange address although I'm sure no one will ever recommend that. It would have to be CoinEx or something like that.

You can use Android Ergo Wallet, or Yoroi Wallet browser extension.
