You can do that manually, it's pretty straight forward, take your hashrate for an instance, it's 112th, go to https://www.coinwarz.com/mining/bitcoin/hashrate-chart and get the current hashrate (it's just estimated by the way), it shows about 130EH for now.

Now change your hashrate from Terahash to Exahash by diving th/1,000,000 you get 0.000122EH

Your hashrate = 0.000122EH
Network hashrate = 130EH

Now if you want to know your chances of hitting the next block or any other block at any given time, simply divide the total hashrate / your hashrate

130/0.000122= 1065573.77 > This means how many blocks would need to be found before you can find yours, assuming luck is 100%, it also means for every block that is found your chance is 1 in 1065573.77 , so back to the crossbow example, there are 1,065,573 (over one million) people shooting at the same time as you are and there is only 1 mosquito to be shot.

maybe you want to know your odds of finding a block per hour, we know that on average we find 6 blocks, simply divide that number by 6 so you get 1065573.77/6 = 1 in 177595 chance every hour.

If you want your daily chances simply divide the hour number by 24 or the main number by 144 (number of blocks found per day) and you get 1 in 7399
If you want the weekly number? divide that by 7 and you get 1 in 1057 chance per week, and you can do all kind of estimates, do it for the sake of learning not for the sake of estimating your chances because you will be disappointed, you need a ton of luck to hit a block and it's not impossible, that's all you need to know. 



 

I was also looking for this tool, thanks

casually will there be these calculators for other sha256 currencies, maybe bch?  (for solitary mining)

Not to mention the guy who got one recently with 400gh/s now that was a real lucky block.
Noticed someone was on the push last night with 50ph but no luck.

you are simply taking a long shot, just like trying to hunt a mosquito in the woods using a crossbow while being blindfolded at 3 am, in a nutshell, you need a ton of luck and that's all about it.

of course he isnt going to hit that mosquito with them odds now,  i already got that sumbitch. plus i had on some beats headphones when i took out that phuqr!

4334 is for rental services, you showed a status of your miners working and hashrate is reported so 3333 works for you, ignore the rest.


2 years is not even close, based on your 1hr hashrate of 122 you are looking at 18 years to hit a block assuming your luck is 100%, you can use this website to estimate the odds > http://solochance.com/


Only the pool itself has this data, nobody else does, to everyone else, it's a single hash that could have come from the use of an old CPU, the pool has the data, I don't know if CK saves them and show them somewhere, but you shouldn't bother with it, i remember someone hitting a block mining with 2*S9s ( 24th or so) not too long ago, but those things mean NOTHING to your chances of finding a block, you are simply taking a long shot, just like trying to hunt a mosquito in the woods using a crossbow while being blindfolded at 3 am, in a nutshell, you need a ton of luck and that's all about it.

Other addresses may work when 3333 does not work.
You can do. two and have a rollover if first stops working .

how will you know if you find one.  you will see the coins in your address


you can peek here and it shows latest blocks.
https://www.blockchain.com/explorer



but you won't know what hash they had.

besides the most they have is 112th. in the form of the m30s++. since that machine has the most hash and only one machine hits the block.

Ie. you have 6 machines. when you hit your block it will only  be one of them.  so they other hash did not help you hit with the machine that hit.

I have a few random questions please bear with my noob'ness and lets get through this

Ok so Ive been mining for like 4 years now but always in a pool. My equipment is well past paid for so I've decide to go solo and try my luck because electricity is free for me.
Anyway I've never really paid attention to the whole how it actually works thing, I know its like a super complex game of what number am I thinking of and I've gotta pick a lower number and whoever picks the lower number first gets the block reward.

I'm mining with 3x S9 and 3x S15

I have all my miners pointed at the 3333 address, what is the point of the 4334 and the 3335 ones?

I know what the speed stuff means but what does all the lastshare, shares, and bestshare mean? And i know its like a year or 2 odds with luck to find a block but if i find one how will I know?

Also is there a way to look up random blocks in the chain and see how much hashing power was used to find it for the sake of curiosity?

TIA

So here is my current stats for solo mining on CKpool:

The reasons are usually one of the following:
A temporary routing issue between you and the pool.
Your username is not a valid bitcoin address.
Some IP addresses have been blocked due to multiple previous failed attempts to connect.

The pool shows as dead when I put in following details

solo.ckpool.org:3333
Bitcoin address
Password: x

I have tried 443 and 3333 both.

The software on the miner is HiveOS.

we plan the next 10PH/s round for 24h run time, join us...

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bitcoin-group-mining-let-us-burn-a-block-10-phs-reloaded-13-5245047

our last bestshare was 2.174.988.243.580, but the block will not come.... ***grrr***

we start a new 10PH/s round --> https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bitcoin-group-mining-let-us-burn-a-block-10-phs-reloaded-12-5244246

Where is this 256 Block....
Here blocky..blocky...

Yes indeed. ckpools were the first pools to support bech32 mining.

can i mine with a BECH32 (P2WPKH) --> bc1q6lj97gc2mnntxuw2eu52t62x2g2zue42h20daa adress on this solo pool?
not that we find a block and not get paid?

i mined bevor only with BASE58 (P2PKH) adresses.

Best regards
Willi

"bestshare": 9528409391677
damn!!!! who hit that share?   was it a rental?
almost there.
i feel a BTCblockBTC coming.

you have better odds of surviving a 50th floor jump, because when you arrive at the 50th floor, your mind has cleared and decided not to jump and you turn back around and head down the elevator. but if your stubborn ass made it to the 100th floor? the issues are real and odds are, your ass is going to jump from that 100th floor

Given the current difficulty and in the grand scheme of things, with 4T, 40T, 400T or even 4000T you still need to be lucky as hell to hit a block, I think about it like jumping off the 50th floor vs 100th floor, while the distance is double on the latter, how likely are you to survive after jumping off any of those levels? pretty much the same if you ask me. 

Even 400T is very lucky right now there's been a large amount of hash trying to solve some blocks before the halving some really big rentals going on in the markets going by some accounts so really lucky with even 400T let alone the 400GH/S miner.

Luck of the draw as they say!

wow thats pretty impressive 400th is impressive enough but GHS - thats the luckiest thing ive ever seen  ! I been thinking about getting a few S9's to have some hash rate in the house and do a big rented one as and when.. missed an listing on 5 x s9s on ebay - they went for £200 (no psus) was annoyed!

Thanks for info appreciated

Last block solver was a lucky one indeed with. 400T and the one before was a super lucky block with 400gh I believe. 


400T Block

400GH/S Block ** VERY LUCKY **
