When fly.ai points are empty: no row, a zeroed day, or a month that has not rolled

The monitor hides points when the month or the address does not match. That is different from a listed zero. fly.ai also says a wrong answer zeroes the day, and an unlinked wallet cannot be paid.

When the fly.ai points slot is empty, do not read it as zero dollars. Open fly.ai monitoring and check two things: whether the points month is the month you mean, and whether the public address is in that month. Points and share appear only when both match. Otherwise the slot is empty. It is not an amount.

Empty and zero are different conclusions

If the address is not in the current month list, the monitor cannot show points for it. That does not prove the machine is offline, and it does not create a zero payout. A listed zero is the case where this address’s score in the month record is 0. That zero is still not dollars claimed. How to read the month, the end time, and the share is in the current month.

Follow the branch you actually see

  • The official page says the wallet is not linked. fly.ai says credit cannot be paid then. Link the public address on the Compute page, then look up that same 0x here.
  • The official page says a wrong answer zeroed the day. That day’s score is void. Month points show only the score that remains. The month is not marked unknown.
  • The points month is still the previous month. The public record has not rolled forward. Do not treat that row as this month’s income. The monitor reads the public month about once a minute. Read the new points after the month label changes.
  • You are mining in a phone browser. fly.ai says mining continues only while that tab is on screen, and it asks for power, Wi-Fi, and a download of about 57 MB. If the tab is closed or sent away, that day can have no new score.

One machine and the wallet still come apart

One machine can be stopped while others on the same wallet keep the month points above zero. One machine can be running while the monitor stays empty because the wallet is unlinked or the address was copied wrong. Machine state stays on the official page. Why points are not a claim amount is in monthly points vs income.

Example

Illustrative, not a real machine: an address absent from the 2026-10 list leaves the monitor empty. Do not write that as income 0. A different address listed at 0 is a month score of 0. If the official page says one day was zeroed for a wrong answer, that day was cleared. The share was not converted into zero dollars.

Next step

Refresh fly.ai monitoring once, and read points only when the month and the address both match. Then open the official Compute page and confirm the wallet is linked and whether today’s jobs were accepted. Do not fill an empty row with 0, and do not treat it as something you can claim.

The monitor cannot name which job was marked wrong, and it cannot see whether a phone tab is in front. Those stay on the official page. Until the public record updates, there are no newer month points to show.

Common questions

Does a dash mean my income is zero?

No. A dash means the month record currently in view has no points to show for that address. The address may be absent, or the record may not yet be the current calendar month in Hong Kong time. That is different from a listed zero, and it is not zero dollars.

I just finished a job. Why is the monitor still empty?

The month list does not change with every second on one machine. The monitor reads the public month about once a minute. If the official page already shows today’s points and this page is still empty, wait for the next refresh and check that the address is the linked 0x.

Does one wrong answer erase the whole month?

fly.ai says a wrong answer zeroes that day. It does not say the rest of the month becomes unknown. After the day is zeroed, the address’s month points and share follow whatever score remains. The day’s jobs are on the Compute page.
