PMP / Mining4people profitability comparison problems

[realsetvin]

Something is off with the way profitability is calculated on these two pools (maybe more). Please take the coin "YERBAS" (YERB) for example. If you configure your machine to include both mining4people and pmpmining with mining directed to a yerbas address - you will notice that the profitability levels are way off.

PMPmining seems to over reported by a factor exceeding 90%. That is to say, PMP is being seen as much more profitable than any other pool by a margin of several times.

Even when PMP is adjusted to a 90% penalty, rainbowminer will not switch to mining4people at all. It seems that mining4people is being under reported (I do not see a way to give it a "negative" penalty)

Looking at miningpoolstaats at the time of this writing I see that mining4people and pmpmining have relatively equal hashrates for coin yerbas. The expected behavior is that rainbowminer should gently switched between both pools. What is happening is that rainbowminer is just staying directly on pmpmining without ever hitting the other yerbas pools I add. I even have pool switch hyst to 1 the lowest level.

Please investigate this when you have a moment

SIDE NOTE: Some pools will wipe your balance if you have not mined on their pool for several months. It would be nice if rainbowminer could mine to each pool for at least one short cycle every 24 - 48 hours.

i setup this coin for shits and giggles and i think i see the issue..... the ttf and last found are off and thats why it always defaults to that one... plus it has a higher pool hashrate

[realsetvin]

That was a great catch, thank you!

Do you know why pmpmining is reporting 10x profits compared to all other pools?

[whitindllc]

i dont know... i need to add the coin to see....

M4P is claiming that they are finding a new block every negative 471 mins.... and its TTF is infinite... However MPS reports each is finding a block every 5 mins or so with them both reporting finding 31.... one has 10 miners the other 7... but the one with 7 has the higher hash rate...

[realsetvin]

I have tagged someone from mining4people maybe its an error in their reporting.

Will take a look on this. Im bawls from Mining4People

Could you show where we report as finding block every negative 471 mins.... and its TTF is infinite. Seems to me there is some issue with rainbow miner logic over an issue on our end.

here's and example of the api report on yerb:
{"coin":"YERB","id":"yerbas-pplns","algorithm":"Ghostrider","name":"Yerbas","hashrate":103231,"poolHashrate":103231,"networkHashrate":159085,"networkBlocktime":118,"miners":9,"workers":31,"fee":1,"feeType":"PPLNSBF","minPay":1,"blockHeight":445782,"blockReward":100,"lastNetworkBlockTime":null}

@whitindllc is your rig's time setting correct? I have now added an automatic compensation in case your rig's datetime is off.

Regarding that PMPmining - YERB got it's quote from minerstat:

.. and that is off by a lot. Looking at Xeggex, we have 0.000501 USD for 1 YERB.

I have lowered the requirements for rbminer.net's xeggex API, so that we get the quotes for YERB (and a hand full other low volume coins) from that exchange. The problem should now resolve pretty soon.

its the same time as my smart watch and smart phone and my other smart phone to the second.. its not part of a windoze domain so its not relying on a domain controller to tell it what time it thinks it is

however i pulled this out of a pc thats on a domain

WARNING: This rig's system time is off by 230 seconds. Please adjust and restart RainbowMiner!

That's great! Did you ever get a chance to look at yerbas on mining4people? Still showing negative TTF

[totom9000]

Atleast not a isue on m4p side. As we dont report ttf on api. Its mathed live we do show blocktime on network on api fre. 9. feb. 2024, 12:41 skrev Setvin ***@***.***>:
