Paul walked me through the setup of renting hash from Braiins and mining with Ocean. My first results are in. I started with 1m SATS and rented 3PH for 7.54 days. I have 681,602 SATS in unpaid on chain earnings with Ocean. I invested $770 USD for the 1M SATS and returned $525 USD for a loss of $245 USD which works out to $33 USD per day for the 7.54 days. Matthew Kratter has estimated a likely return of say 90-95% of the sum invested with losses over time being in the region of $10 USD per day. I am doing this to support the network so I just want to see if this was typical for a first attempt? According to the Ocean graph they failed to land a block on the 25th and 26th of April so I had zero payout for at least 2 days. Is this in line with the experiences of this group?
I have not experienced a loss. My records indicate about a 2% gain over 90 days or so.
I fire off 1 PH/s 3 days of the 4 day “Window” so I didn’t/don’t run steady like in your example. I have a bit of a strategy for what its worth..but from the looks of things I’m doing my part for the fight but in reality Im receiving lightning from OCEAN via CLN, then bounce to Alby/LND then back to Onchain via Boltz to Sparrow back to Braiins. A washing exercise 
EDIT: Not sure if your new to OCEAN but TIDES works based on hash you contribute to the pool and its reflected as Shares In Reward Window. No shares are dropped until they leave the window. There is a last 8 block limit in the window…so what that means is until the current window doesn’t reflect your hash the “last blocks” are still subject to payment.
…But it has been long enough since 25,26 that you should have noticed what I just said.
6 Block in “Window” example. Last column is sats earned that day
Thanks Greg Yes first time ever with Ocean just feeling my way. As we speak I have just received another distribution of 46,954 SATS! I still have 149.86G in the Shares in Reward window so does that mean I still have further distributions to come? I like your washing exercise. I am meeting with Paul tomorrow to design a similar system as I need to wash a number of mixed UTXOs from the whirlpool on sparrow days. Thanks for your input much appreciated.
