Title: what is stale share?
Post by: bitminer on June 16, 2011, 05:35:20 PM
What does exactly 'stale share' mean?
Is it possible somehow to count stale shares if I’m mining solo?

I believe that stale share is a share that you submitted and its no longer valid...


I GUESS that you cant make a stale share mining solo, because your will try calculate the whole block by yourself, so only you will send shares...



but Im might be wrong

But why would be a share no longer valid?  ???
Was the block solved or does anyone else sent it already? Or what?
