Pool Questions/Rewards while Mining
-
what is considered to be " winning a block " on a pool?
-
@HiDevin The Miner with the shortest deadline "wins" the Block be they on a Pool or mining solo. Difference is that if mining solo you get the full Burst reward for the Block whereas on a pool it is divided according to the current shares of all the miners on the pool.

the longer line means you win the block right? and everyone gets a reward?
-
@HiDevin Exactly. The line on the right shows the shortest deadline for that block on the pool, and the account on the left of that line is the guy that actually won the block. So when a miner of the pool wins a block, there is a longer line because he is in both categories.

@Gadrah_ oh ok
-
@HiDevin Short line means you were the best miner on that pool, long line means you were the best miner on the while network and "won" the block.
