pooltool.io's Issues

Feature Request: Expected number of blocks

It would be great to provide number of blocks expected for the stake in current epoch. So the delegator can see BPE, Epoch Blocks nad Expected Blocks all together, this could be interesting as to give basic picture in what is expected and where the pool is in current epoch.

But you would probably need to provide epoch stake as well to avoid confusion with Live Stake or maybe not and explain it in the column header tip.

adapools.org shows this number as "Estimated daily blocks" in the header of pool details page.

Feature request: Maintenance metric

Show in the "Uptime metric" chart (or other chart) the time frame in which a pool was in maintenance.

Feature Request: Pool page refresh

It would be great to get some data refresh to pool detail page. I'm sometimes tracking Epoch log and the number of blocks in current epoch (header of the page) so would appreciate it.

Currently you need to refresh the page manually, set up night mode, switch tab, ... which is annoying.

Feature request: Show slot and height battles in a graphic way

Show slot and height battles in a graphic way, in the similar style as published in Analysis, with filtering by epoch and plays.

Feature request: Use the "in maintenance" option outside the pool status.

That is, outside the combo as a separate check or button. I have had two bad experiences. Once I wanted to choose the maintenance status, and by mistake I chose the wrong option. The autosave changed to the state chosen by mistake. Another time, when I put my pool in maintenance mode and stopped sending my tip to pooltool by server migration, the system stopped showing the status of my pool in maintenance mode in the general listing. I think that maintenance management should be a separate tool, which does not lead to mistakes and shows the actual status of the pool unambiguously.

Feature request: Communication between operator and delegate

Member section where a delegate can send direct messages to the pool operator, and the operator can send mass messages to his or her delegates, which will reach the delegates as alerts or warnings.

The operator will not know exactly who its delegates are, but the delegates will be able to receive the messages sent by the operator, and if the delegate wishes to make a consult, he can do so as a direct message without the operator knowing the identity of the delegate.

Feature Request: show all own node stats on profile page

My typical workflow includes refreshinghttps://pooltool.io to get updated header stats, then typing "ko" in the search box to find my pool Kontiki.

This feature request is for a one-click method to see the stats for my node:

• show updated stats on https://pooltool.io/profile; OR
• preserve the search term between sessions

Introduce Night Mode

Just an idea to introduce a Night Mode for the site, since white pages are annoying for many users' experience, especially at night.

Thank you.

Add epoch # column to the pool detail view

Currently we show number of blocks minted, rewards etc but are showing a list without 'epoch #' column - such a column would be a nice one to have.

Also would be nice to show all epochs for now or at least last 25-50 (if there aren't any performance issues associated with fetching that informaton)

Country Ticker

It would be great to have a country code pools can select when claiming their pools so we can all see which countries are leading in block creation and we can also start having inter country competitions :)

Feature request: Battles by epoch in the historical results

Could the battles by epoch be included in the historical results of the pool? Thx.

Sending slots fails

Sending slots through the send_slots.sh script currently fails with the following error message:

Everything ok. Starting ...
Packet Sent:
...
{"success": false, "message": {"error": "We were unable to parse the decrypted json data.  That either means we were unable to decrypt it, or the json is not valid"}}

Feature Request: Competitive Fork Win/Loss stats to pool page

I would appreciate Win/Loss stats and history on pool detail page let say as a tab next to "Epoch Log".

It is currently available as raw data via "Operator Resources" page only.

Feature request: Control panel for operators

To have a section per account, where it is possible to access in a centralized way:

• Private and account management information.
• Manage our pools from a single place (activate maintenance, enter or modify data referring to the pool, etc.).
• Manage alarms.
• Receive alerts.
• Manage bot parameters.
• Access to programmed slots and view history.
• Access to more specific analytical graphs.

... etc.

Feature request: How many pools are green, orange and red

As part of network health you could consider adding an overview of how many pools are currently red, orange or green... or maybe even track the numbers over time and present them in a chart (if you want to get really fancy).

Favorites? Wishlist? Compare list?

Make it even more user friendly! On my way to choose where to delegate, I chose a few pools as candidates, and after keeping track of each websites I thought that being able to flag them as my favorite ones directly on pooltool.io, and being able to see their specs side by side, would be a nice feature.
Cheers mate!

Feature request: Profile picture of the pool

Could you allow to add a picture as an image to represent each pool in the general list and within the detail of the pool?

Google Translator

Google Translator is currently unable to translate the page into different languages.

Feature request: Reward tracking per user

Feature Request: Show percentage in sync time

Hi Papacarp,

Is there a way we can use the tips to create an in sync chart or percentage? Maybe per epoch ?

Think this would be useful info for delegators.

Kind regards,
ADAVibe - Michael F (Telegram)

Battles by epoch in the pool detail

Could the battles by epoch be included in the pool's historical results? Thx.

Feature Request: Additional Performance Metric: Leader slots assigned

Hi,

I think it would be interesting for pools to send their total assigned slots each epoch as an additional performance metric next to tip.

This way the users can make more informed decisions regarding pool performance.

The reason I came to this info was that I've seen now how a smaller pool gets a greater variation in leader slots each epoch. This translates to a greater variation in blocks produced, even when performance/hit rate is 100%. This could deter potential delegators who look at the pool stats and think it is a sub-optimal pool.

As an additional suggestion if this was implemented pool should only be allowed to send their slots in the beginning of the epoch so they cannot cheat when missing blocks.

Display the uptime of the stake pool.

When my pool only had 300-500k delegation, a bunch of people asked me if my pool was still alive because I did not have any blocks.

Assuming the different scenarios with either one or more nodes, it would be interesting to display the current and average uptime of the node. This could be a measure of the stability of the pool and if someone is considering delegating to a smaller pool, they can be reassuring it is real and alive.

Feature Request: Running total of ITN Rewards

It would be nice to be able to view a running total of Rewards that have been distributed on the ITN network.

sticky header for table

requested a few different ways - just putting it here to keep track of it

Block height for a stake-pool not increasing when using filter

send_slots.sh - error line 18: [: missing `]'

when executing send_slots.sh the following error is produced:

line 18: [: missing `]'

which corresponds to the conditional:
if [ -z "$MY_POOL_ID"] || [ -z "$MY_USER_ID" ] || [ -z "$THIS_GENESIS" ] || [ -z "$KEY_LOCATION" ]

the script continues to execute and performs as expected

Feature request: Bot warn about updates in the scripts

Could the bot warn about updates in the scripts or any other notice that an operator should be aware.

Can you add FreeBSD as an Operating System?

Feature request: Adversarial fork history

It would be great if pooltool.io would keep track of the adversarial fork history for the last 24 hours or so to compare against the blockheights of our restart scripts to see if they match.

Feature request: Show public note by placing the cursor over the information icon

Feature request: The favorites option in the general list filter should be outside the filter as a check

I often use the filter, but every time I want to search for a specific pool outside my favorites, I have to enter the filter and remove the favorites option. Then save and when the search is finished, I have to activate the favourites filter again.

RoS Not accurate??

Hi PapaCarp :)

So far our RoS from staking to our own pool is 11.7% over 55 epochs, but it's showing as 8.1% on PoolTool.

Not sure where the PoolTool numbers come from or in which epoch they began etc but not accurate for everyone :)

Need a way to close pool detail panel

Load up pooltool.io
Click a star icon next to some pools
Change pool filter criteria to see a different set of pools
Click a star icon next to some pools

Pool details panels at the bottom just keep on accumulating

If they're meant to act as a favorites list of some sort, then need a way to easily close them (without having to search for that pool again in the pool list and unticking the star)

If they're meant to act as just 'show details' panel, then should probably disappear whenever the pool they're referencing is no longer mentioned in the shown-to-user pool list

Feature request: Personalization by user

Could you include the capability of saving the customizations by user? (Favorites, filters, list view, interface, etc.). Thx.

Feature Request: Claim and hide pools we created by mistake

Firstly, love the tool! keep it up.

I know myself and a few others messed up our pool cert registrations (wrong fees) and other doohickys... But unfortunately those pools certs were sent to chain and we can't unregister them.. And now every time someone searches our tickers it is very confusing which one is the correct/operating one.

So it would be great to have an option to claim (and validate ownership) of a pool and choose to hide it if desired in pooltool. The ownership validation might be tricky but it would nice to explore if it's possible.

Thanks!

Feature request: Exclusive bot for delegates

Could you create an exclusive bot for delegates where they can see:

• Performance of their delegations.
• General statistics of the pools where they delegate.

Copy pool id link needed when viewing website on mobile (or clickable link)

Currently on mobile there's no way to copy a pool id after selecting a star next to the pool and viewing the information panel that shows up - the pool id is non-selectable on my Android phone and is truncated.

Ideally there'd just be a link to the shelley explorer for that pool somewhere so i don't actually need to copy the link but can just click on it (and if i need to copy paste it i can do so from the window/tab that opens up to show the link contents - e.g. https://shelleyexplorer.cardano.org/en/stake-pool/036cf6404ac488d9bf17ddf6932b6670b782408bd4b6a57b5b5ec4983e1e04a7/)

block count errors

I notice when your pooltool node gets stuck and then recovers, epoch block count might fail to report the correct block count if a block was created at the time of your node being stuck

Feature request: Allow to save filtering options in the general list in templates

It would serve to apply different filters quickly.

Block trend enhancement

The block trend is confusing - if a pool suddenly loses a large delegator, it will be assigned less blocks and the trend will go down even if pool performance stays the same. This can give the wrong impression that the pool is not performing properly.

The indicator would be more useful if it reported the percent of created blocks vs assigned blocks (average assigned blocks per stake)

Feature Request: Make fork data available

I would appreciate the ability to query the fork data like how we can get the tip data. Thanks.

Feature request: Automatic notifications and alerts of pools for delegates

In the user area, a delegate could receive various notifications, such as

• Block created.
• Slot loaded.
• Epoch summary.
• Maintenance of the pool or change in its status.
• Changes to the pool fees.
• Stake changes.
• Battles.
• Sync problems.
  ... etc.

If and only if the delegate decides to do so. To do so, you could access a set of options where you can choose which alerts to receive and which not to receive.

Feature request: Allow pool owners to publish links to their social media accounts

Twitter, Facebook, Telegram groups you name it ...

Pool search filter needs slight improvement

If I type in AAA into the search field it should always do a search against a ticker symbol first, pool description next and only as a last resort look inside the pool GUID.

Currently I'm not sure what the ordering is (if there is), but I see ZZZ pool listed first, some 1PCT pool third and Pal's UNDR pool fourth -instead of my three AAA pools.

(2) 0.95% fees show up differently, one as 1.0% and the other as 0.9%

Lovely Pool (0.95% fee, 95/10000) shows up as a 1.0% fee.
Lovely Pool 2, same fee as above, shows up as a 0.9% fee.

Feature request: Standard graphic / same view for all pools

Could the graphic be standardized to be displayed completely in all pools (from 0% to 100%)? The charts do not use the same scale for all pools. Thx.

Feature request: Extend send-slots.sh to also report slot numbers

Some of my team members would like to view scheduled slots for the day without ssh-ing to the node. I'm not sure if there is an additional concern here to make the data public but in theory, we could see a whole epochs allocations, what slots are double allocated before a battle, etc.

Reading the documentation for send-slots with delayed reporting for accuracy makes sense but I dont think that would apply here..
Interested to hear your thoughts, thanks!

Feature Request: On competitive forks page, have the search also return the pools history in the capsule like format we see on the left.

I'm not sure what to call them, but the square infographic type thing for each battle. It would be nice to search your pool and see the history of your battles in that format.

Feature request: Email notification

Send email notification to pool operators when their node is out of sync/stuck based on "Height".
