Seems about right. I ran solo with 20 usb sticks for a few days before and noticed that BFGminer seemed as though no work was happening. Thanks for the help. Highly anticipating these new blades. About to place an order with SSB this afternoon. Wish I had enough coin to do 10 on a backplane. 100GH for 40btc could pay off after two blocks solved!

So, how you nade it?
I´d like to mine in solo with some ASIC´s devices but how?
If somebody knows, please PM!!!!!
Thanks

Should have worked fine. Since this post I did some solo mining with my ASICs and yes, thats exactly how it worked. There were no accepted shares until I found a block, and then depending on the program I was using, it either showed 1 accepted, or it showed the amount of coins that were in that block.

I think pinwheel had it right, the configuration is correct, but since you are solo mining, there is no accepted shares or anything like you would get out of a normal pool. You either solve a block, and thus get the reward, or you get nothing.

Anyone find some more information, or a guide to solo mining with blades?

that miner which embedded into BE blade is really simple one. I tried same things you are talking about and it all works, but because you are not submitting any shares, so you will not see anything, till you will find a block and it may take a while. That way to optimize and evaluate effectiveness can be really problematic. Another option is to run your local pool. There is some Linux distro with reconfigured pool.

definitely interested to see what can be done.

Hi!

When I ask the big google and this forum I find tons of how-to´s about setting up solo mining für cgminer configs when using GPU or plugged USB Erupters.
Forget this.

## I´m testing the following with a "server" on Windwos7 32bit and BlockErupteBlades ##

I´m trying to setup SHA-256 solo mining with my BlockErupterBLADES(!).
As you will know most users of this ASICs are using slush´s mining proxy. So did I until now so I know how to run all this pointing to a mining pool!

When I run Bitcoin/Terracoin/*whatever* with the -server command and point my Desktop PC with cgminer to my server IP it starts hashing away. Everything runs fine but that was not my goal but just for testing purpose. I configered the bitcoin.conf/terracoin.conf properly

When I poing my Blades exactly the same way to the server IP it receives packages (no. is rising) but does not hash something.

In my dusty thoughts I tried to start the minin_proxy.exe with my server IP as host and the preconfigured port from the *.conf but of course Slush´s proxy tries to connect to stratum - but eventhough it does not work with the getwork options.

Much talk about a simple question: Has anyone here ever managed to do solo mining a SHA-256 currency with BlockErupterBlades?!
