I was just wondering if anyone ever found a BTC block with less than 10 GH/s.
I know that's nearly impossible to find a BTC block. It's like playin the lottery Wink

Have I found a block with my U2s? Nope. Am I trying? You bet. I solo mine with my 5 U2s. Running on a Raspberry Pi, there's virtually no cost.

Best share I've seen on one of them? 98 million.

I am looking for info on Solo Mining with a Raspberry Pi - But all I seem to be able to find is "Pool Mining".
How do you set yours up for "solo Mining"??

I just use the Pi to run the mining software. I have 5 U2s hooked up on a USB hub, which is plugged into the Pi. I run bitcoind on a MacBook Pro, where I also run my own local p2pool node.

I don't think the rPi is powerful enough to effectively run the full BTC node and also have the mining software on it running as well - but I have no proof on this.

If you got a large enough SD card, you could test it out by compiling the bitcoin node from source and firing it up.

he may just use bitsolo.net easy to do. it is a pool that gives the block maker the entire block .. they have paid one block so far.

http://bitsolo.net/

http://bitsolo.net/pool-stats/

up side easy to do

down side === the pool operator may be able to rob you if you hit a block.

Note : most any pool operator can do a no payout of coins.

if bitsolo does that and the person that hit the block talked about it here it may kill off the pool.

that is nothing and not even worth posting about.
My s1 best share is over 5 million. So there, old tech beat the faster youngin Tongue

a u2 miner has 538k best share. so what?

Um, you don't know what an AntMiner u2 is, do you?

I was pretty sure it read S but I must have not has enough coffee. or it was edited Tongue

Lol, easy mistake to make especially if you're under-caffeinated. But you do know that you have "u2" in your very own post. Wink

yea because I was just saying that the measly u2 did better than the S2 that I thought I read... (for the best share they posted)
