...hash rate around 9GH/s...

At current diff, you're at about likely to hit a block every 1,034,600 days (2,834.5 years), on average. Cool

But, this could be your year

I have 5 usb miners with a hash rate around 9GH/s. I started last night.

I'm using bfgminer

Yes that is an insignificant hashrate. If you were using decent mining software such as cgminer, it would support the stratum standard for setting your diff with the --suggest-diff option which would allow the pool to set the diff according to your choice of diff without waiting for you to submit shares. Nonetheless shares are meaningless when solo mining and only used on this pool as feedback to miners to know they're successfully mining. If you wait long enough shares will start being accepted and then the pool will show your hashrate.

Hi, I'm new to solo mining with bitcoin.

I'm getting below response after submitting the solved block

{"reject-reason":"Above target","result":false,"error":null,"id":6}

Would you/someone please help me to understand if target, markel and data is correct. I'm trying to write small program just to understand it properly.

Below few details:

How long does it take for a user to appear under http://solo.ckpool.org/users/? I began mining last night, but when I try to enter my wallet address I get a user not found error. Thanks!

What hardware, what hashrate? If you have an insignificant hashrate it could take hours before you show up.

hi guys.

and my greetings to -ck for his amazing contributions to the bitcoin society over the years.

i just got around your solo mining pool. i have an old server pc lying around, thought about dropping some measly hash power into this solo mining.
i know the chances are pretty slim, but its not like it will do any better sitting in the attic, gathering dust ...

could you recommend which utility should i use for cpu mining ?
as your cgminer app does not support cpu mining anymore, as far as i've read ...

Please read:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/bitcoin-mining-intro-rules-of-this-subforum-read-before-posting-2415854

Read, and understood.
thats why i'm not mining with my Xeon processors in pools, its useless.
reading the concepts of ckpool and solo mining, just for trying my luck, got me here.

so you mean to tell me it is impossible for me to discover a block by chance, using CPU mining and solo.ckpool.org ?
knowing there is a teeeeeeny tiny difference between totally impossible and very improbable ?

The chance of finding a block CPU mining is less than one in the number of total particles in the known universe, but more than that, CPU miners are not welcome on my pools as they use up as much pool resource as multi-PH miners for nothing.

right but my understanding is that ver diff is a set of hash one has to complete then submit it to the pool, mine happens to be 4000 shares, well with a mere 333 mh/s by the time it did submit the 4000 shares the block would had already been solved by someone else. Meaning with that high of diff there is no point mining.. Sad

Ver diff is a way to save bandwidth..

The 4000 diff means you need to find a share that meets or exceeds a difficulty of 4000 before the pool accepts it. To find a block you need to find a share that meets or exceeds current network difficulty which is WAY higher than 4000. So if you find a share that high the pool will definitely accept it and submit it to the network as a block.

That's not at all how mining works. Time to do some more reading my friend.

Are you sure? I mean (Lord welling) i did happen to find a solution, wouldn't i have to wait to and submit all 4000 shares before it could be verified?

Icon

All shares are is a way for you to communicate with the server that you are doing work, and the result of that work is greater than a specific difficulty level.

In a collective pool, your shares submitted are also used to help tally how much work you did in order to sub-divide the block reward among everyone (you did "your fair share").

Since there is no division in a solo pool, the only share that will ever matter is on that contains a solution with a difficulty that is equal to, or higher, than the network difficulty (you only get paid for that share).
