Hello, is there a way to get notified over email if you hit a block?? It would be a nice feature. Thank you.

Just get a wallet with an app that notifies you of a deposit, nice hash, binance whatever
1) Those are third party sites and not under your own control: not your keys, not your bitcoin. Don't think that is very smart.
2) some sites do not accept coinbase transactions as a deposit so if one is to use one of those 'wallets' then make damn sure they allow it.

When you say make damn sure they allow it..... How does one do that?

Ask them  Wink

When you say make damn sure they allow it..... How does one do that?  I am mining using a BTC address from my coinbase.com account for ease of use because I can convert to USD and cash out quickly.  However, I have wallets with Exodus and Atomic which are private key based.  If I ever get lucky the BTC I receive will be converted to cash fast but I am now concerned that I should be using a BTC address from my exodus wallet instead.  But not sure. The "not your keys not your BTC" has always been a concern for long term storage but not for quick conversion


I use the BitCoin QT wallet, I control my private keys.  Sure it's an extra step to send coins to Coinbase, but at least I control the keys to my wallet.

curious...when you say "coinbase" transactions, do you mean because the coin has just been mined and is brand new, so to speak?  Thanks.
[/quote]Yes, in the past several exchanges warned against doing that because their systems couldn't handle it. For instance, most exchanges require 6 confirmations before they credit your account but a coinbase transaction (indeed newly minted coins) cannot be spent until 100 confirmations. Exchanges routinely move btc from your deposit address to a cold wallet or use them to payout other users and that can't happen when the 100 confirmations aren't reached yet.

It could be that exchanges have updated their systems but I would check with them first before doing so.

Thanks.  Yeah i am using a "bc1..." address from the TrezorOne I have.  I thought it said Segwit address when I set it up but that was quite a while ago. Now i don't see that anywhere in the dashboard of the software suite.  yeah i was looking at my best share (5193413666) and comparing it to the current bitcoin network difficulty....man it's a sad sight hahaha like 2 entire digits short. I'm nowhere close!  starting to wonder if i should do like one week pool mining, one week solo mining...and keep alternating.  I want to be able to say this asic mined at least SOME bitcoin during it's lifetime lmfao

Anyhow, where is the difficulty so I can compare my best share with the current blocks being mined?  Thanks for your help

You can get the difficulty from the api:

Hello all, willi9974 when do you plan to do the next block run? I want to either join or buy some hash to mine separately at the same time at solo.ckpool to increase the chance.
we start if the places are nearly full, hope this week...

Yes.

For example, block 721310 was mined by Solo CK, you can see it here:

https://mempool.space/block/00000000000000000007a79a2e930f8f9ee5b6a970d36300416dff40499e294a

Cool thanks. Yeah I've been checking out mempool.space to try and find the block difficulty so I can compare to my best share, which so far is 5193413666 (it seems pretty low to me, am I right? lol).  There is so much information on that site that I don't know about yet.  It makes me realize how much I still don't know about when it comes to the technicals behind crypto.  It's cool though...gives me stuff to google all night (or in my case, presearch haha).

Anyhow, where is the difficulty so I can compare my best share with the current blocks being mined?  Thanks for your help

Hello there, just want to confirm I'm doing it right

https://imgur.com/JQBo6Zm

I know, its a ridiculous hashrate, its a 3070ti. I'm only trying to get into solo mining just for fun, you know the same way you spend money on euromillion or lottery.

If I'm right CK doesn't allow GPU mining.

You're trying to mine Bitcoin with a GPU, you would need at least one ASIC to play the lottery.

As -ck has said multiple times:

Get an ASIC. You can't meaningfully mine bitcoin with a GPU, and I removed the code to do so from cgminer almost a decade ago.

You're not doing it right, you can't mine bitcoin with a gpu. Your hashrate is so small it will take years for the pool to even notice you are mining.

I will at some point join your Block Party. Just gotta find the good timing for it.
you are welcome

Blockparty Run 16


Hello all,

let's go to the next group buy from Hashingpower.

As already requested by some forum users I put a new group buy for solo mining. Start at the earliest after the next diff reduction.

~15-18 users for each 0.01 BTC can participate. A higher number is not useful, otherwise a possible profit will be much too small.
If smaller amounts than the minimum amount are allowed in a single case, then the calculation of the rewards will be based on the amount of BTC deposited.
Hashingpower is rented on Nicehash and shot on the solo pool.
The status of the group run can be observed during the runtime via the Live View link.
Here you can see what our hashingpower is and what our highest share / bestshare is.

If a block is found, the reward will be paid out to the participants.


Lets go and let us find a block



In the past we had found 9 blocks --> 188 BTC!
Block list: 385022, 394940, 394946, 395087, 396941, 399709, 401934, 706369, 712217

Those who want to participate send their BTC to the following address 3KWE8HcunSfvfNBy3CdXZdQ2HyvierBxeT and post their participation with the following template:

Please send your coins only if there is still a place available.

Again two people have sent coins although they had no space. The effort to manage this increases and increases.
FROM NOW I CONSIDER EVERY TX SENT WITHOUT HAVING A PLACE AS MY PERSONAL DONATION.
If you are unsure, ask first!

To make it a little easier in the new year, I've decided to do the reservations differently.
In the new year there are only reservations for people who pay at least 10 block party runs in front.
If the quota is exhausted, the place will be automatically free and someone else can use the place.

Specifically, we start with the Blockparty Run 2022-1 and if someone sends 20x 0.01 BTC at the first time, he is practically permanent until the Blockparty Run 20.
If someone joins the Blockparty Run 2022-7 and sends 10x 0.01 BTC, he will be a member until Blockparty Run 17.
This simplifies the organization and places are not permanently taken by the same people, unless someone sends 50x 0.01 BTC for the 50 planned Runs.

If we should not create at the end 2022 the Runs, for which someone already paid, the last Run in 2022 all payments are used around longer to run.

Please send reservation amounts only when you read an OK from me!

So has anyone here been at it more than a year without hitting a block? I think it's so much more fun to solo mine because of that feeling you get when it finally happens. But this will be my first time mining bitcoin, which has a much bigger network so I'm trying to taper my hopes of this happening any time this year lol by the way, my hash rate is 92THs on a single asic.
