Why ZEC S/s is not H/s and not a coin count

S/s means solutions per second, not H/s and not ZEC coins. The account rate and one worker's rate can differ. A higher or lower share difficulty does not change rewards, as the help page states.

On this page

ZEC uses Equihash. This page shows the pool's current rate as S/s, solutions per second. The same number still sits in a field the pool account API calls hashrate. On this page, read S/s. Do not rewrite it as H/s, and do not treat it as ZEC already credited.

Account rate and worker rate

The account's current rate is the combined view for that transparent wallet. Each worker has its own rate, an offline flag, and a last-reported time. Selecting one worker changes the row you are looking at. It does not move anyone else's solutions into a private balance, and it does not split the wallet's unpaid amount by headcount. Several workers share that one unpaid figure.

What share difficulty says

The help page lists more than one share difficulty and states that share difficulty does not affect miner rewards. If you are unsure, it recommends the lower setting. It recommends the higher setting for a very large GPU count or for NiceHash. That is the pool's own submission setting, not a machine hashrate this page measured, and this page cannot change the miner's difficulty. The API also offers share stats for 5 minutes, 30 minutes, and 6 hours. This page does not chart those short windows. It shows the account's current rate and each worker's rate and last report.

What to do next

Open the Zcash monitor. See whether the account S/s is still present, then whether the worker you care about has stopped on both S/s and last report. If the account still has a rate and one worker is offline, the gap is that worker, not the whole wallet. Do not multiply S/s by a power price or a coin price and call it a day's income.

An illustrative case

Suppose the account is 200 S/s and two workers are 120 S/s and 80 S/s. Those numbers only show that the two workers' solutions can be read as adding up. They do not mean this site measured any miner, and they do not mean the next payment is 200 times a unit price. If the pool omitted one worker's rate, that cell is unknown, not 0 S/s. The help page's statement that difficulty does not change rewards is the pool's statement, not a promise from this site.

Limits

This page does not rank regional servers, and it does not repeat the help page's port table. ASIC model names only mean the pool accepts those machines, not a measured S/s. Crash interpretation does not judge hardware from S/s. The Mac Agent does not control a ZEC miner.

Common questions

The pool calls the number hashrate. Why does this page say S/s?

The API field is still named hashrate, but this Equihash coin is shown here as solutions per second. Do not rewrite it as H/s.

If I raise share difficulty, do rewards change?

The help page states that share difficulty does not affect miner rewards. That is the pool's statement. This page does not turn it into an income promise, and it cannot change the miner's difficulty.

Should I add two workers' S/s onto unpaid?

No. S/s is not coins. Several workers share one unpaid figure. Do not add the balance again per person.
