In eBay there is a "Report Item" link down on the header with the Description and Shipping and payments tabs.  This can be used to report scams and other things even if you are not buying the item.

Thanks!

speaking of ebay... someone on the forums here pointed me to a listing on ebay that is using my actual photos from here to sell something. makes me think they dont have the item of they have to use my photos.

That’s weird why would they post something that they don’t have when the payment goes through PayPal and if they don’t send anything then they don’t get the payment.

yea right? lol look at his eBay response (he did remove the listing) when I requested he not use my photo's.... idiot

He has nothing against the EBay since it was too late to even open any kind of a case against the seller.  He lost his $1200 and is blaming only himself for it.  I told him that it was stupid of him since he could have purchased like 8 perfectly miners instead but he just wanted spare parts because his line just doesn’t hold more than like 15 miners in total.

 But that’s not the point.  The point of this conversation is that we were discussing if he could somehow report or red flag this seller for selling hacked controllers to people, so that EBay would take some action against the seller and other will not fall for this trap.

I don’t know if it’s possible but I think he could try if he calls them and explains the situation, because I think the guy is still selling these trashed cards and contaminated controllers to other victims.

He should be able to alter or write a review since he made a purchase, I don't think eBay puts a limit on how long you have to write a review. And yeah probably calling and explaining to ebay that the device that was sent was infected with a virus and that other buyers might get scammed might do something. The odds of him getting a rep that has no idea what he is talking about are probably very high.

If a claim takes awhile to happen or like in the other case the buyer doesn't check for a while, then the funds will clear PayPal and the seller gets the money. Yeah paypal will attempt to pull the money back when a claim is opened but the worst thing they can do is close the person's account / send it to collections.

eBay tried pulling this crap on  me with a bad buyer and wanting to refund more than what he should have been given. They pulled the funds back from paypal out of my bank account, my bank froze the transaction and reversed it and paypal sided with my bank, ebay was pissed and closed my account but then again they never were authorized to take anything out of my bank. Paypal didn't care because the claim had nothing to do with them other than they processed the payment. So if the seller doesn't have any funds in paypal and no bank / credit card on file or a bank that will side with their customer the seller will win.

Hopefully we can discuss the block we find soon.  I am new here but 1430 hours seems like quite the dry spell.

if you look at the https://kano.is/index.php?k=blocks page - you will see our luck is a little higher than 100% for the past 5 but for any other count, we are under 100% and overall (like 2500 blocks) the pool is at 101% so that is pretty good.

that said, I do hope it is soon lol

Ouch! - 1818h since the last block. Hey, that's 75.75 days.
Maybe our LUCKY number?!
Here's to the next block!

As I can see just the last month the pool has lost about 50% of the hash rate which is about 10PH.  All I know is that’s a hell of a lot of electricity just waisted by turning it into heat and then releasing it into atmosphere if counting almost 3 months without a block!  Should have at least stayed around until it was found so there wouldn’t have been such a big waist.  Probably could have charged 100 Tesla’s for a lifetime!

that is not wasted energy, that is how POW works. Seems you have no understanding about statistic...

Every pool that hits a 200% plus block is using the same amount of energy to get it (though we're not to 200% yet)
And of course EVERY pool hits, on average, a 200% block or higher every 7.4 blocks.

Well it depends who is behind the machines. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.theblockcrypto.com/amp/linked/57943/a-power-plant-in-new-york-is-reportedly-mining-roughly-50000-in-bitcoin-each-day   Lol. Power companies now coercing the public to go green so they can use the excess to mine bitcoin. Lmao. This is what your up against folks.  Market swings make no difference when it’s off loaded power they use anyway.  They will hoard during the down markets because they don’t have to sell and dump every time it goes high.  Rinse and repeat until the majority have been fleeced.  Crypto has become a speculators sport. Take that to the bank!

The last block the network has found is up to 95 minutes...  I have never seen it that high.  Wonder if people are powering down their miners but the difficulty has not yet adjusted.

That's what usually is, since the adjust happens every 2016 blocks (usually two weeks). Sometimes an altcoin becomes more profitable and the pools/tools with "single switch" or "smart switch" puts them to mine that instead.

In this case i guess its just the bunch that were mining at near margin and cannot continue at current price. Reduced diff will make the smaller miners happy, but it takes long to adjust if the change in hashrate is big.

I have yet to check, but is it really taking 90 mins? Because that would mean some major worldwide hashrate reduction.

It reset, but I pulled the number from the Kano.is webpage Last Block information.

629180 was 96 minutes

Using a simple CDF calculation, that's a 960% block, which is expected, on average, once every 102.5 days without a network hash power drop.

Profit switching is all bullshit to help support scams.
Exchange prices change every minute.
The profit switch is always based on out of date data since you'll never get the same price by the time you get the scam coin to an exchange MUCH later, and also subtract fees and charges.

You DEFINITELY will not be making even thousands of dollars more doing it, more likely thousands of dollars less

If you sell BTC and can't hodl it, then you wait for the right price. Simple.

A question about kano pool please:
In the pool, blocks statistics menu,
The monthly statistics, there is no statistics for the January, February and March 2020.
Specifically, I wanted to know what was the "expected" number of blocks to be mined?

For example, the expected value was 1.63 in December 2019.
