Topic: Lottery Solo Pool Miner Race on ckpool - page 3. (Read 8544 times)

Hey Wiili-

Well, either idea might be worth a topic for discussion (shares or minimums) if you're up for it. I'm interested either way. It could be fun to have multiple risk options for any of the individual miners. Heck, we've all spent money on various equipment over the years just to watch it get outdated and find ourselves wondering "where's the next best option" for our older equipment. Then, when it comes to pointing our older machines to the best profitability or the next "actual" block there really isn't much to choose from. And unfortunately, I suspect some or much of that older stuff usually ends up not being used or just sitting in a box unless there's an opprotunity to put it to work on a "TEAM" pool like we have here currently. I'll admit to being guilty of parking old/slower miners just to open up some wattage for the new and improved equipment. Done it myself. I'm just thinking there's enough of us that have a few pieces of "middle-grade" equipment that they wouldn't mind putting some of that to work on something potentially more profitable. Thoughts?

Cheers!



UPDATE 09/22/24

Hey Wiili-
I just sold two older high-wattage miners I picked up back in 2018 to my brother-in-law (very low price). I had these two particular units (MicroBT Whatsminer M3) in mind when proposing the idea above for discussion. However, I have some newer Futurebit Apollo II's that I'd love to point at a new pool with the shares or minimums idea. So let's keep this idea on the table.

I thought you might need another miner to hit that block 

I just added a Pink Nano 3
Workername:  bc1qeuupt2tgerfum8jclt8aklu9cdmzzkwml9lg7c.AngryJoe_Nano_01
Hashrate: 3200G
Payout Address 3N3C1Cid2G3Aq9Ty51feHuSA7euLQQmT8Y

Device is a Lucky Miner LV07. For your Information. 

Ok now i get you.
No we never talked about with higher min. limits but we talked about delivered shares.
So yes that is also possible if some would.

Easy to make with ckpool and a copy of the statistic page.

If some have interest, i could open a second topic for that.

Best regards,
Willi

if you mean rent higher hashrate for longer time, yes we had done this, but no luck.
we burned a lot of bitcoins

you can take a look in the german mining area for "mega halving..." or "mega run...". we spend a lot but no luck to catch a block.

Best regards,
Willi

No, no . . . not referring to the Block Party pool. I was speaking of the lottery solo pool miner race where we keep a minimum hashrate per miner of 200 GHs in 7 days. Not speaking of renting hashrate. I believe I did post under the correct topic section here when I spoke of this . . . I hope. If I'm wrong, I beg forgiveness. Anyway, here is what I said:. . .

"Has a next or higher level lottery pool ever been discussed whereas the minimum 7-day hashrate would be something higher such as 10TH/s to 20TH/s? The overall total hashrate could potentially be astounding with fewer splits meaning higher profits for those involved. Personally, I wouldn't have a problem pointing my bigger workers at something better than earning a few satoshis or just solo mining alone. Call it the Big Pool, Muscle Pool, or something catchy just for fun. Just a thought (after a couple of beers)."

So, what I was wondering was if a "new additional" second pool with higher minimums had ever been considered. In other words, for example, if a second pool ran a minimum of say 20TH/s and there were say for example 50 miners onboard we'd be pushing 1000TH/s. Of course, it could be a minimum of say 10TH/s, 15TH/s, 20TH/s, or even 25TH/s and that would of course determine the average number of miners onboard which in turn would determine the overall split - which I would think would be much lower than say 144+/- miners requiring only a 200 GHs minimum. This was what my original question was referring to. I suspect there's more than a few of us with "middle-ground" miners only earning a few satoshis a day on big pools or just solo mining alone. This could be a step up in fun. Anyway, sorry for the confusion.

And by the way, I still think you're the one with the administrative prowess to do it.  

Cheers!

Nudge, nudge . . . I was actually thinking of you specifically when I asked the question. You appear to have the administrative prowess where and when appropriate. But enough brown-nosing  . . . you didn't answer the question about whether or not a higher level lottery pool has ever been discussed. Outside of your workload, I'm sure there may be valid reasons for or against it. I'm just on the road to knowledge my friend.

Cheers!

Welcome to our group and yes looks good.
You can start your miner any time, I will configure your device type in the next time and now cross our fingers for a block.

Best regards,

The Mars Lander is from Bitcoin Merch that runs Raspberry Pi with BM1397 / Compac F with CGminer. Basically, a small miner (250GH/s) with a controller and expandable USB ports which I have the R909 plugged into. In other words, it's an over-priced and under-engineered toy. But it serves it's purpose most of the time.

Okay, I found the image I uploaded: https://ibb.co/mGDbrSS

Welcome and if you have time, we are happy about a new Picture from a new Miner
I put the Device Info into a "Terminus R909" or what is a mars lander in Mining context?

Best regards and happy Mining,
Willi

Hi Willie . . .
Just to let you know I joined the Solo Pool Miner Race using a Mars Lander with attached R909 Pod Miner (it will show as a single miner).
