Does it matter which Chia Pool you farm with?

Posted on August 22, 2021August 22, 2021 by Chris Dupres

Over the past few weeks since the on-chain pooling protocol was released I have been changing my Chia pool using my 454 Chia plots every week or so trying to get a sense of payouts and experience with each pool. At a really high level, the 5 different pools I tried all roughly paid out…

All about Pools – LetsFarm, a legitimate German pool

Posted on August 19, 2021August 19, 2021 by Chris Dupres

In today’s All about Pools I am focusing on Letsfarm.io, a German pool who seems to share a lot of the same values as I do with The Chia Plot, and when choosing a pool. Letsfarm is focused quite a bit on trust as their selling model and they think that having proper tax registration…

All about Pools – Chiabatta, the South Korean leaders

Posted on August 6, 2021August 6, 2021 by Chris Dupres

In today’s All about Pools entry we spoke to Chiabatta, a group of South Korean farmers really trying to bring Chia to their part of the world. I really liked this team, they have a lot of ideas to not just grow their pool but the entire Chia community in South Korea. The Chiabatta team…

A response from Chia Network to FlexPool’s FlexFarmer software

Posted on August 4, 2021August 4, 2021 by Chris Dupres

After FlexPool released their FlexFarmer software into open beta yesterday. It works completely differently, architecturally, from the official Chia client. Instead of having every farmer act as their node and participate in the network directly, FlexFarmer runs a central high performance node and farmers submit all their work there over the internet. Because this difference…

FlexPool releases new light weight Chia farming software FlexFarmer

Posted on August 3, 2021August 4, 2021 by Chris Dupres

Update: I have put out a call for FlexPool to open up the source code to FlexFarmer. FlexPool has just released a public beta of their own lightweight farming software to enable Chia farming with their pool without running a local full_node and going through all the sync issues. You can try it out here….

All about Pools – OpenChia, spitting fire right out of the gate

Posted on July 30, 2021July 30, 2021 by Chris Dupres

In the latest entry into my All about Pools series here, I had a chance to get some insight into OpenChia, a pool whose value proposition in complete transparency. More than that, however, they launched their pool with a Reddit post insinuating that other pools cannot be trusted because their back-end code is not open…

Finding proofs while farming Chia but not winning blocks? What gives??

Posted on July 27, 2021July 27, 2021 by Chris Dupres

A question about Chia farming that I am seeing a lot on reddit and discord right now is why after so many months of not finding any proofs are we suddenly finding a number of them constantly but still aren’t winning any blocks. So what gives? Is everything working correctly? Yes. What is happening there…

FoxyPool is back up and crediting users with missing XCH collateral

Posted on July 23, 2021July 23, 2021 by Chris Dupres

After yesterday’s disaster, it appears FoxyPool has everything resolved and has credited people’s collateral. It appears that some users are talking about being slightly short, and some are saying they are slightly up. But all in all it does not appear that Felix (the face behind FoxyPool) has pulled any rugs here. I have to…

FoxyPool suffers failure, resets farmer balances

Posted on July 22, 2021July 22, 2021 by Chris Dupres

FoxyPool has suffered a server failure on their OG pool and farmers are seeing their collateral missing from the website. According to farmers in the Chia Plot discord server, they are seeing their balances reset to to about 5 days ago. This is fairly catastrophic for a pool that keeps up to 1.75 XCH as…

An argument for keeping your OG plots and not replotting

Posted on July 20, 2021July 20, 2021 by Chris Dupres

Yesterday I posted an article about an argument Flexpool was making in favour of everyone replotting and joining an on-chain pool. I still believe that is a good idea for the reasons listed out in that post, however there are some very good reasons why someone may not want to do that and we will…
