New user to pool - clarification on Balance, Earned, Block completion

Mul Vak 6 years ago updated by Im TheLordOfGames 6 years ago 1

I'm not sure if I am understanding the payout part of the FAQ.  So I've been mining to the XMR pool about a week.  My hash rate seems right based on the rigs I bring up, my shares currently showing 196.568 M and climbing.  Balance seems to be stuck on .0013 XMR for like 4 days, Earned is 0.


So I see a block was confirmed 5 days ago, so maybe the .0013 was from that (I had just started).  It looks like the current block as I write is 67%, so does that mean I will see my balance go up when that is complete?  Then if I understand the FAQ, the new balance will reflect a payout based on my shares?  What I don't understand is if the block takes a few days, when I look at the payments tab it shows someone getting one 8 hours ago. 


Ok last question is how does the "Earned" relate to the Balance?


Thanks for the time in reading this, I did read the FAQ and the suggested posts that came up when posting this.  With my job I have access to unused hardware and free electric so I am hoping to get some serious XMR mining going once I have the process down.


Thanks!

Balance is your contribution that is under the payout limit (for xmr its 0.1)

Earned is the amount that has been sent directly to your wallet

Its done like this to decrease on transaction fees for all coins


The percentage for the blocks is just an indicator for it to be confirmed by the network

We dont actually get payed until a block is confirmed


The xmr pool has been having some issues lately (https://feedback.coinfoundry.org/communities/1/topics/794-attn-monero-partial-payout)

Also the xmr wallet had a bug in it, so it went crazy for everyone
