Epoch 56 results:[4ADA] 100% successful block result: 24\/24[4ADA2] 82% successful blocks: 18\/22[4ADA3] no blocks were assigned.slot leadership allocation was very low for [4ADA]. [4ADA2] behaved rather sluggish last night, 3 slots were lost due to unknown reasons. Things got fixed this morning and no further slots were lost, except for one competitive slot against the 1PCT pool. (FYI 4ADA and 4ADA2 share the same hardware and configuration)Re [4ADA3] we now have 256k ADA at stake. Quite frankly our chances to get a block assigned are not very high yet. If anyone is willing to move some stake from [4ADA] to [4ADA3], we might be able to change that quite quickly!All the best! \ud83d\udcab<\/b><\/i>Jos<\/div>\n\n\n \n

Epoch 57 results:[4ADA] 92% successful block result: 34\/37[4ADA2] 100% successful blocks: 21\/21[4ADA3] no blocks were assigned.Provided the testnet doesn't show any major hick-ups\u2014so we can maintain performance, tomorrow should show just a few blocks less for 4ADA and quite a few more for 4ADA2. Again no blocks for 4ADA3 in sight, but I am sure there are some waiting for us, just behind the horizon \u2600\ufe0f<\/b><\/i><\/div>\n\n\n \n

Ep. 59 result: 4ADA 35\/40 (88%), 4ADA2 20\/22 (91%).Brace for impact: 4ADA2 (56.1M stake) just got a miserably low 13 block assignment\ud83d\ude20<\/b><\/i>. 4ADA (92.4M) got 36. Ep.61 should make up for it, with 65M+ stake for 4ADA2. Thanks for your loyalty and patience!4ADA3 when block??? \ud83e\udd1e<\/b><\/i><\/div>\n\n\n \n

Ep.60 results:4ADA: 35\/37 blocks = 95%4ADA2: 14:14 = 100% (13 was miscount)4ADA3: no blocks assignedEp.61 outlook:4ADA: 38 blocks4ADA2: 16 blocks4ADA3: 04ADA is rocking and still climbing the performance ladder, so if you're in, relax and enjoy the ride!4ADA2 is needing some momentum: slot allocation yesterday was terrible and for this epoch, well very mediocre to say the least. All we can do is keep minting every block that comes our way.Now, the stake went up from 51M to 67M during epoch 59. Which means that tomorrow's slot allocation (ep.62) will be on the basis of this increased amount!!I understand some 4ADA2 delegators may be getting slightly impatient. My recommendation would be to hang on one more epoch. Epoch 62 slot allocation will be announced without delay.Just hold on to 1 thought: 4ADA\/2 is minting near 100% of blocks. Good times therefore will come....Good times will also come for 4ADA3, but I can't make any promises as it is up to the delegators at this point. Hopefully our TeamTrees promo might convince someone soon.

Read the blog post from my previous message to understand more about the dynamics at play.IMPORTANT: today saw the release of a new jormungandr pool software. Here at staking4ADA we're not in desperate need of a new version as our performance is totally on par with the top pools, but we will closely observe the early experiences made with this version (0.8.1) and take adequate steps if needed.The new version of Daedalus will be released tomorrow, so for anyone to increase their stake with us, go right ahead \ud83d\ude09<\/b><\/i>Stake happily! \u2600\ufe0f<\/b><\/i><\/div>\n\n\n \n

After rain comes sunshine remember?The other way around, if you see great ROI at another pool, it usually is queued for a few bad days by the time you've arrived with your stake...The major factor to keep an eye on is whether a pool produces all blocks it gets assigned. But to judge that, a pool must communicate its block assignment -or at least give an accurate estimation\u2014 at the start of each epoch...Sorry for all 4ADA3 delegators (including myself)..... still no block coming up also in ep.63.Happy staking!! \ud83d\udcab<\/b><\/i><\/div>\n\n\n \n

We here at staking4ADA give it all we've got, we devour every block thrown at us, just like you as a delegator expect of us.And you, dear delegator, you also give it all you've got; faithfully trusting your dear tADA to a pool with a solid track record. As you should, because it simply makes sense. A pool with a block conversion rates close to 100%, putting it among the absolute elite pools out there.But, dear friends, what do we get in return? The absolute worst block assignment! There is simply no explanation for this: 31 blocks for a 96.4M pool (which already should rather be 40 blocks) and 13 blocks for a 51.5M pool. This is a ratio of 1 block\/3.1M vs. 1 block\/4.0M, nearly a 25% difference.And there we all are trying to compare pools with 12.2% ROI against other pools with perhaps 13.4%...In that respect there is something really not right about the Shelley protocol if you ask me... with this huge distribution in block assignment randomness, it takes many months or even longer before you can truly distinguish great pools from lucky pools...OK, let me stop my rant here.

Stake pool performance is determined by two variables:1) assigned blocks; how many blocks are we allowed to mint2) block performance; which portion of assigned blocks is actually produced and added to the chainFor your convenience, we\u2019d like to make it more visible how our pool\u2019s performances are influenced by each of these variables.Our pool\u2019s past epoch\u2019s results and current epoch\u2019s target are therefore presented in this format from now on.Happy staking \u2600\ufe0f<\/b><\/i>P.S. you've guessed it: again no blocks in ep.65 for 4ADA3<\/div>\n\n\n \n

Reassuringly solid performance from 4ADA.4ADA2 had a rough day. already poor block allocation 12% below average. Plus, 3 lost slot battles with competing pools (we won one). This is simply bad luck. With 68% of battles won, 4ADA2 still has great slot battle statistics, better than 4ADA...4ADA3 today produced its 2nd block, showing 200% ROI on Pooltool.io<\/a> \ud83d\udcaa<\/b><\/i>Tomorrow has disappointing block allocation... we'll make the best of it!Happy staking! \ud83d\udcab<\/b><\/i>Jos<\/div>\n\n\n \n
