I wish i would have read this before I got divorced, not after. might have saved the marriage. NFA:

Want to watch a chain die? head on over to pooltool.io/realtime to see the "good" chain overtake the "bad" chain. And see the mess the "bad" chain pools are making of things.

We are now about 100 blocks from containing the issue.

Its interesting to watch the chain dynamics at play on pooltool. Right now we have a competition between two chains for just the reporters to pooltool. You can see the majority max height is oscillating between two different block heights.

Overly complex is right. The current system is set up to spend millions to perform oversight to make sure we don't waste millions.

Simple is better, let the DREPs get burned a few times so the learning happen, get rid of this Vogonic bureaucracy.

PoolTool has voted YES on the constitution. This provides Cardano with a great platform to get started with the governance journey. Thank you to everyone that put blood, sweat and tears into that process. Getting to this point is pivotal for the ecosystem.

Do you remember when you joined X? I do! #MyXAnniversary

My how things have changed since I first made the Pooltool account. Onward!

Thank you #Catalyst and the #Cardano community for the ongoing funding of PoolTool. I'm so happy to be a small part of the ongoing decentralization of $ada.

If anyone is still looking for a Drep we just crossed over 10Million ADA in delegations. Thank you!

Congrats $ada. Onward!

Scam Alert. Got this via email. If you get this do not click, do not go to the website. ADA does not need a migration. spread the word.

As part of my endeavor to be a dRep I've started developing my mission and platform and will be publishing it to the PoolTool website. Feel free to post comments/questions here.

--sincerely, drama free papacarp.

Quite a few pools are stuck at the epoch transition for tips. Did you remember to re-enable sendtips when you upgraded the node?
#stuckInBabbage

Wow. I’m starting to think the knee jerk reaction was warranted.

I was curious about a topic, read a few posts. Upvoted a few, downvoted a few. And tried to post one time with karma of 47 when I needed a karma of 50 to post.
Why would I be banned? So odd.

I expected some of the other chains to have a better showing.

Like are we really sure that in 2020-04 one entity had control of >50% of the bitcoin network? That seems a little unlikely even in the height of covid panic.

In about 16 hours we will cross 10 Million Blocks on the #Cardano mainnet.

I think its a good time to pause and reflect on our path together since 2017-09-23 21:44:51.

We have accomplished so much. $ada #GoingForNumber1 #JustBuySomeADABro

What are some ideas for simple marlowe smart contracts that would be useful to a lot of people? What types of ideas would you like to see in marlowehub.io to allow non-geeks to get utility out of Cardano with marlowe? #brainstorming #cardano $ada

Hello Cardano Family. Just a reminder that F11 Catalyst voting is almost over. We could really use your support to get MarloweHub off the ground.

"Smart Contracts so simple, Even your lawyers could do it!" - marlowehub.io

#Cardano $ADA #GoingForNumber1

💡Catalyst Voting is almost upon us and we have once again submitted a proposal for the MarloweHub. Please consider supporting our vision in F11 and best of luck to all the propsers!

@hoskytoken spotted on a beach in Mexico.

good memories. So happy to be a part of this crazy community...

#GoingForNumber1

#Marlowe is a brilliant strategy to make smart contracts easy for anyone to use on #Cardano but we need more examples, we need to simplify the onboarding and make it more approachable. Thats why we are proposing MarloweHub.io. Come see our prototype website.

Because smart contracts on #CardanoADA are currently like a box of legos. You can build anything you want, but with no instructions or templates to follow the learning curve can be long.

Introducing MarloweHub.io. An F10 catalyst proposal from the builders of PoolTool.io.

Can't believe its been 3 years since our pool LOVE made our first mainnet block. We will cross 7000 blocks in the next 10 days or so. Onward!!....
#Cardano #goingfornumber1

It means the same pool is creating multiple instances of the same block. Usually means they have two different block producers running at the same time for the same pool. Its usually a configuration issue. Its mostly an annoyance for the network.

pooltool.io/realtime/83135…

Its a busy epoch for the Forkers. PoolTool is watching.... Always watching....

Just one more set of data while I have the query window open. Avg block times over the last 10 epochs along with min/max lag times recorded.

SpaceX would call it a nominal trajectory.....

A quick PSQL query on the pooltool db... The freq column is the number of blocks created with a lag from the previous block within the range in seconds.

EG: we have 1 gap of 679 seconds, 1 gap of 507 seconds. 1263900 blocks made in under 24 seconds since epoch 300.

Ok, wow. 3 years of building on a #Cardano #MyTwitterAnniversary

Every once in awhile Tech pops up and slaps us in the face and expands the horizons of what is possible.

The internet did this for me in the 90's, Bitcoin did it to me in the 10's and I'm having a similar moment with AI now.

One of our two LOVE pools is retiring in a few epochs. This pool has about 150k stake on it. Our primary pool remains and LOVE will join the ranks of the SSPO shortly. If you are delegated to the LOVE JAPAN pool, please move your stake to the original LOVE pool.

According to cointelegraph he most certainly is!

Who will be the first NON EXCHANGE pool to reach 10k blocks and get the coveted 10K PoolTool award?

Follow the race from here and sort by lifetime blocks:

We introduced some unobtrusive ads. This decision was not easy for us, but we have bills to pay.

There are, of course, ways to have an ad free experience still.

PS: Since we scrapped our Turbo project, we had to make up for it somehow. ;-)

Feeling pretty today...

We may push a new feature out on pooltool.io

oh wait! It's already here!

PS: we have been working hard to deliver on our promise.

Stay tuned for more!

#Cardano $ADA

pretty good:

see it here:

turn it on here:

just added it for you.

Introducing PoolTool Turbo!

I think its all because of this. seems to be recovering ok:

That was one of the cleanest epoch transitions we've had in years. Pools hardly dropped out at all and CVM even got slot 20 successfully produced and distributed. Wow! Definitely on the right track with scaling!

Good work @IOHKengineering

also cool to see how consistent slot battles are across epochs. Almost like it was designed that way.

Height battles have been trending down recently which is a good thing. It means prop delays are getting lower and blocks are getting distributed faster now. Good work #cardano! The Basho phase (scaling) is in full swing!

Check out the new chart pooltool.io/networkhealth

Yes, and if @CardanoStiftung comes out with a promotion to host nodes on AWS then...

Binance has 2.8b live stake or around 11% of all stake on the network. They have made 3x the blocks of any other entity.
What's your vision here @CardanoStiftung ?

I have nothing against Binance, love their platform, but why promote such a centralizing entity?
