screen shot the cgminer screen so we can see it. it will give us an idea of what is wrong.

Many thanks, cgminer is now working.. it now won't see any of my miners. I have a high-power hub plugged into a usb3 port on the pi.

Install your Pi OS (assuming Raspbian) following the normal instructions. Then you can follow these steps: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.58200639

Those will clone cgminer from github, compile it, and the version in the Ferrari thread will also find and support previous generation Gekko devices.

A share is a valid hash that your miner finds. Shares have a "difficulty" - if your share's difficulty is higher than the network difficulty, you win and find a block.  Think about difficulty as the number of shares your miner will have to generate before finding a block. Today's difficulty is 28,225,928,151,211 - statistically, if you generate that amount of shares, you'll be likely to find a block. (You can also find a block with only one share, but it's very unlikely.)

I am happily solomining away on 4.11.1 with my windows PC but I am really struggling with getting it to work with my pi... I have bought powered USB 'hats' but it never seems to find my miners (4 x Newpacs) even with using the same powered hub that works fine with Windows.

Has anybody created a Pi image to install straight from Pi imager?

I have seen preconfigured sdcards on Ebay but for the price they are charging - I am a poor disabled student and don't think my kidneys are worth enough to cover the cost!

I have trawled this forum for suggestions but I think I just make it worse!

!???

You don't need to pass any sort of KYC on nicehash, you just need to fill your wallet with funds and then rent the hashrate you want, but keep in mind there are two types of contracts you can buy, fixed and standard, you need to learn the difference between them and then decide what works best for you.

Hello, Nicehash does not shows solo.ckpool.org like a SHA256 compatible pool

https://www.nicehash.com/compatible-pools

Thanks, I was able to configure ckpool on Nicehash on port _4334_ for an ASIC difficulty of 50000.
Nicehash Test Ckpool miner Ok!

Now, I need to pass KYC and BTC Positive Balance

 

Why not use Nicehash.com and rent a little bit of extra hashpower?  It's not too pricey.

Hello
Thanks again everyone, and specially to philipma1957 and mikeywith for yours extensive answers, it´s gold to me, I really appreciate you taking the time to clarify my doubts.

Now, i appears in solo.ckpool.org!

NEW MINING CONCEPT
I'll try a new concept to raise the hashrate by increasing the odds, so i can improve hashrate by 100.000
I need at least 10 Th/s to increase my solo mining to 10 Th/s x 100.000 = 1000 Exahash/s or 1 Petahash/s

Can someone give me this 10 Th/s this month by connecting as second (bc1q3lvrz46pnl8l5snfcxrpu92vd3ncxjqq8vzha4.2) or third miner (bc1q3lvrz46pnl8l5snfcxrpu92vd3ncxjqq8vzha4.3) to my account this month?

It's a project for school, going well I'd be getting a successful block that month!
 

Shares are actions that CKPOOL takes for quality and sends them???

With that kind of hashrate, it will take you forever to find a valid share that would register on the pool.



There is no such thing but in general anything below a few tens of Gigahashes is pretty useless IMO.




It's the best or largest share you submitted since the last block found by the pool.


Same as the answer above (your hashrate is 200mh)



If you have free power or otherwise use the heat to warm your room, maybe it's worth it, if not then it's not.

try the 4-5 terahash miner it is supposed to work.

Block 731609
Difficulty
28,587,155,782,195.14
Nonce
1,247,924,477

So bestshare is the Nonce  correct

Keep hoping to see that number go to 266!!!

Hello again, i want o know the means of best share,

1. That isn't share sended to ckpool, is it? in that case cgminer shows 2.6 Hashes per minute, Is that right?

2. Why ckpool don't shows my stats at my address user?

3. Where do i see the real shares sended o pool?

4. I'm using a modified Cgminer 3.7.2  that uses a graphic card, so maybe that is the problem?

5. A guy offers me a 4-5 terahash ASIC machine, Is it enough for solo mining?      

Thanks in advance, and sorry for silly questions, but i need to learn!

and toes!!

let us cross our fingers!

Simply put, miners take the previous block's hash and add a nonce to it in an attempt to get a hash that is less than the current difficulty (has a certain number of leading zeros), here is a very simple example.

let's assume the previous hash is (11) and the miner is attempting a hash that starts with 0

if you hash 11 on it's own you get


you can use this website for testing > https://emn178.github.io/online-tools/sha256.html

so now I'll keep trying different values along side 11 to get a hash that starts with one 0

if I try 11f, I get


if I try 11f1


if I try 11f11


I kept trying all the way till I got to


and that gave me this hash which should solve a block


because this is just 1 zero, it was very easy for me to do it manually in just about 20 hahses, now if you try to get a hash that starts with two 0 zeros - it will take a lot longer, 5 zeros will be even worse and so on so forth.

Of course, the value of the hash includes many other things besides the prev block hash, but this is just me oversimplifying the matter.


To feasibility mine bitcoin you need to have a good share of the total hashrate, so anything below EH worth means a somehow large fluctuation, you won't be making more money mining solo (except the pool fees), so it's not worth the fluctuation IMO.


with 100% luck, you need 15 days to hit a block, so you could do so in 15 days, maybe 15 hours, and maybe 3 months, the question you should be asking yourself is "if I get an unlucky year whereby I only hit half the blocks I thought I would, can I survive?"

of course, if you measure this against infinity, it will be no different.


It will depend on your power rate and the efficiency of your miners, 100ph= 10000th, if you use something like S19 with 30w/th, it means a total of 30*10000/1000=300Kwh, or  7,200Kwh daily, if you pay 10 cents per KwH you will pay $720 daily, if you mine with S9s at 90w/th, you will pay 2,160 daily.

And with no offense to you, mining far with the same of 100PH will need at least 2 million dollars investment and a ton of planning.
