I have ping to euro solo 120. Is this normal? Or a lot, and the chance of finding it becomes much less for a ping of 120. There are many more Discarded errors. What is interesting about these errors. Antminer s9.

The question is, on which port do people find a low-power unit? The block is more likely to be found on port 4334 or 3333. If you set it to port 4334, then there is a ball difficulty of 1,000,000. And with low power, which port is better?

what do you mean by "low-power"?

For high performance rigs and rentals its recommended to use 4334 since the minimum diff is 1,000,000

As for likelyhood of findng a block, there's no difference between either port the odds are based on the hashrate of your rig and that is all.

Is anyone else experiencing issues with the worker statistics endpoint?
http://solo.ckpool.org/workers/

Also, is there a way to remove old or renamed workers from the worker array in https://solo.ckpool.org/users/ ?

Thanks in advance!

Statistics:
Simple total pool statistics can be found at http://solo.ckpool.org/pool/
Solo.ckpool.org currently only displays minimal per user and per worker information based on btcaddress.
To access this, enter your BTC address at the end of: http://solo.ckpool.org/users/
or your workername at the end of: http://solo.ckpool.org/workers/

Hi All,

So I registered and entered my BTC address in the worker line. I didn't sign any transactions through a wallet which I heard you need to acknowledge through a wallet that the wallet is yours. Is this true? Is it possible to do this through a normal normie wallet like through a custodian or the standard BTC players?

Any help would be appreciated, I'm running to Avalon Nano 3's and plan to buy a couple more just so I have one in each room for heat.

Best,

Keeper

So lets try to understand an address in a wallet.

One a wallet can have endless addresses
Two an address doe not hold wallets.

Three there are wallets that you fully control
Four there are addresses that you fully control.

Five there are companies that control wallets with addresses in them
Six those companies control the coins and give you an iou. they can screw you.

So I ask how did you get an address and a wallet?

1) did you join an exchange.
2) did you load software and make a software wallet
3) did you buy a hardware wallet.

1)if you joined an exchange or service you do not control the coins or the address
2) if you loaded good software for a wallet and did it correctly you likely control the coins and addresses
3j if. you purchased a good hardware wallet from a good seller snd followed instructions you likely control the wallate addresses and coins in it.

Another question I have.

There is the SHA256ASICBOOST (I can turn it on or off in my miners, it changes efficiency as far as I am aware)

Apart from the efficiency, does turning it ON or OFF changes anything related to my odds? Can I mix machines with ON and others with the option OFF?

AFAIK, ASIC boost improves the efficiency of the miner therefor increasing its hash rate marginally, so yes its worth turning on if your rig allows it.

No transactions are required to use the pool. It is anonymous up to the point where you add your BTC receiving address (payout address).

The pool will recognise valid BTC addresses and then allow you to mine to it.

If you're lucky enough to hit a block the pool code will automatically send the winning block+fees less the 2% pool fee directly to your receiving address.

Good luck!

If I'm counting correctly this pool has solved and been rewarded 16 Blocks in 2024. There's still three days left in '24 and we're currently at about 60% total pool luck (with both EU & US combined), maybe someone here can get a 17th before years end!!

It's a bit early, but I want to wish everyone a great 2025 and the best of luck with our BTC mining - may we all solve a block!

Thanks

Wishing you all a prosperous 2025 too.

Best of luck finding that block!

Hello, the question is, how is the Btc block located? How is the work on finding the block going, each new block is given a new task to equip? Does it turn out that if the block is not found, the next block starts from zero, or does the upcoming work increase the chances of finding the block? For example, we know that I have to find a block at 12.00 (conditionally block 123000). And under what conditions is the chance of finding a block higher at this time. For equipment that has been running for a month without stopping, or equipment that was started 2 hours ago. The power of the equipment, for example, is 100 th alone. Question: will the work of the equipment that has been working longer help in any way, or after each block is found, all the work starts anew?

Hi CK! Thanks for the pool, easy to set up, I've set a couple of my old Antminers S9 to mine there, and I know for a fact that I am definitely going to mine a block solo, definitely, 100%, fingers crossed. Plz, send positive energy, PLZ SEND HELP!

I got one stupid question for you guys, I tried searching online with no luck.

Why is my Total Share smaller than my Best Share?

Code:

╔═══════════════════╦════════════════════╦════════════════════╦════════════════════╗
║    Last Share     ║   Total Shares     ║     Best Share     ║     Best Ever      ║
╠═══════════════════╬════════════════════╬════════════════════╬════════════════════╣
║     Recently      ║     139.02 M       ║      429.35 M      ║      429.35 M      ║
╚═══════════════════╩════════════════════╩════════════════════╩════════════════════╝

Total shares don't update very often, Best Share does.

Think of Shares as a container for the value of a share, the best share is simply the highest value within a given container.

Your rigs will only sumbit shares once they have found a share that has a value greater than the pool difficulty

The number of shares your rig submits to a pool is directly related to the difficulty set by the pool and the hash rate of your rig over time.

I rhink I understood it now.

Thx man.

im attempting to setup ckpool on a vm on a local machine for my gear

i followed this guide:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dAa6PkVN-3o

... pretty simple compared to how i was doing it a couple years ago!

i have just a query regarding syntax for the service which auto starts ckpool on boot...

/etc/systemd/system/ckpool.service:

Code:

ExecStart=/home/ckpool/solobtc/src/ckpool -B

when using solo mode (-B argument) it requires a < -n name/btcaddress > argument...

so this is what i think it should be:

Code:

ExecStart=/home/ckpool/solobtc/src/ckpool -B -L -n "bc1---my btc address---"

is the above correct?

should i add a -k in order to ensure it always starts up if the service is restarted or any other additional arguments, either in ckpool or bitcoind?

before i would use bitcoind wallet address for solo mining - should i use a local bitcoind wallet address? or would my ledger wallet address be ok?

/etc/systemd/system/bitcoind.service:

Code:

ExecStart=/snap/bin/bitcoin-core.daemon -daemon -pid=bitcoin.pid

im waiting for initial block download to complete so cant test yet.

in order to make a confirmation on testnet that my setup is working, what should be changed?

No this is not correct. You don't pass it a bitcoin address as the name of the application. It just means it will only accepts usernames that are bitcoin addresses in solo mode. Any wallet is fine, it does not need to be local to the node (in fact I recommend against doing that for security reasons.)
