Title: BestShare value for AntMiner S4 in a single day operation?
Post by: Jeremias on April 07, 2015, 07:32:11 AM
What would be the ideal bestshare value I should be looking at with Antminer S4, after a continuous single day operation ?

it's a random number, if you mine in a pool it's not so important because even if your best share is above diff target, you won't get the block all for you

otherwise in solo, it just tells you if you are near to find a block or not

That's correct but a bit misleading; since mining is progressless, it only represents how good a given share was. If you have a 400000 share, you are no closer in time to mining a block than if you had an 800000 share.

yeah i know, i've said it in the wrong way, it just tells you that you was near to get the block not how near you're

It's a completely irrelevant number and there is no such thing as an ideal value.  If it happens to be above the network difficulty, congrats, that miner provided a potential block solution.
