There was nothing to develop, all the mining hardware they were doing their own versions of cgminer and drivers in house. There remained no reason to maintain a general version that worked on all hardware - nor was there any way to write drivers for their hardware with their closed systems.

Although I don’t know much about it, it should be able to help many people in the future. When I looked at the cgminer version introduced by my predecessors, it seemed that there was no development and available binary executable files. It was only in 2018. I just don’t understand the reason for stopping the development. I believe these powerful ones people will work it out
 

Hello, with just one CompacF sticker, running at 290g, I already have 50m of sharing.

Some of you may not be aware, but I've been contacted by Futurebit to assist them in getting solo mining built into their standalone miner/node hardware. I've been updating the solo ckpool code to make it more generalisable and work properly with the latest stable version of bitcoin core and on the testnet and regtest networks. Going forward, the solobtc code is the only ckpool code I'm planning on updating and maintaining. This is not going to replace this solo pool, as the dedicated hardware in a high speed low latency data centre is still a better choice for minimising the risk of orphan blocks, but the idea is that anyone should be able to mine solo locally as either their final fallback, or by choice. This could act as an important safeguard to preserve bitcoin mining in future should there be coordinated attacks on the major pools out there. The code is freely available and not confined to use by Futurebit alone. Even if other manufacturers decide to take the GPL code and illegally fork their own version of it without providing source code as they have done with cgminer, it will still be a net positive.

I'm a little late, but congratulations to the miner. 

Thank you very much for the explanation, but the minimum rent for nicehash is 0.001, and MMR can be used for flexible equipment transfer for small miners within a very low capital time, especially in the case of network disconnection or other conditions that cannot output shares, continue to explore and learn
 

It's case by case. Most of the time the hashrate will appear on your worker's page quite quickly, as most software does not have a problem with this. 10k is a very low difficulty by the way.

I don't know where you rent your hashrate, but in the future, you can always rent it via Nicehash and set the desired hashrate low, it's up to you how much hashrate you want and for how long depending on your BTC deposit.

I don't like Nicehash's team and don't like to promote them, but overall they are cheaper than MiningRigRentals, and we have never had any trouble sending hashrate to solo.ckpool via their service.

Long time reader, but wanted to give others hope who may be working with limited resources  

24/7 S9 with a single board (lol) in low power mode venting to attic in my office closet upstairs at 5TH for three years (using a retired K&N car intake filter for the inlet with a 3d printed funnel mount, temps sustain 85C - 90C)
Nightly T15 runs hooked up to a 240V BDT-1C timer in open air in the laundry room with a 240v splitter at 22TH for six months (temps NHT 83C)

Never give up, never surrender! Keep mining!

Yes, so the point of contradiction is that when small miners are renting with limited resources and funds, and the other party’s software does not support the difficulty, in the mining pool where people participate, when the difficulty is higher than the initial one, they cannot output shares at all. Is it slow in time? What about slow loss, will the average remaining small miners encounter problems?
 

Pretty easy.

People send the same share of BTC to Willi. With these deposits, he is renting hashpower (in general 20 ph/s) and send the hashrate to ck solo pool.

If you aren't lucky, you lose your share and that's all, If you are lucky, the block reward (+ fees which are pretty interesting actually!) is shared between all participants.

I want to mention that Willi is a reputable, active and honest member of this forum. He always paid everyone, even with a block of +300k usd. We found a block at Blockparty #30 and he sent the reward to each of us. He even kept aside one share of the reward and waited more than 2 months (if I am not wrong about the delay) the confirmation of an absent member, to be sure to pay him to a valid and updated BTC address.

Some other member are proposing the same idea but with smaller amounts (I mean smaller deposits needed to participate), but have no background about paying the members in case they hit a block. I personnaly chose to trust them and participated to some runs, but it is at your own risk.

Good luck.

I might join you on a block run sometime in the future,

I just need to get my head into how it all works before I commit to it.

The problem is the renter there. They don't support running lower diffs.

You could always use the --suggest-diff option, but only if you use cgminer software. (minimum 1)

It is strange to not have at least 1 valid share over 10k with a S9 in 24 hours to be honest.

Are you sure of the BTC address you used for mining ? Are you sure too of the pool url you used ?
Are you renting with MRR or NH ?

May I ask why it was said that the website provides small miners and large farms, with difficulty levels of 10K and 100K, but the small miners are not from 1K or below?
 

At present, even renting an S9 has been running for almost a day, and the 10K has not been eliminated, and there is no actual share output.
Do other small miners have this kind of problem?

Great, thank you!

runtime at the moment apparox 1 day 8 hours

Good Luck!  Lets find a block!  How long do we hash for Will?

Blockparty Run 38 is started with 25 Phs
cross our fingers to catch a block.

I'll carry on dreaming 

I think I need more hash...
