Post by: gt_addict on May 27, 2017, 11:42:03 AM If youre part of a pool then you will get your share of it based on your hashrate on the pool. If you are solo mining then you get the whole block to yourself.

Post by: FlamingFingers on May 27, 2017, 11:50:00 AM As said above, if you are mining with others in a pool, and you potentially found a block, its reward, which is 12.5BTC at the moment, will be shared depending on your hashrates. If you were lucky enough to mine a block solely, you will get the 12.5BTC all for yourself. :D

Post by: philipma1957 on May 27, 2017, 12:52:04 PM ok thx :) if you mine at mmpool.org and hit a block you keep the tx fees. which are as high as 2 to 4 coins http://mmpool.org/statistics Title: Re: Im new, so mayby it a dumb question ? Post by: QuintLeo on May 27, 2017, 10:51:55 PM Many pools offer you SOME SORT of "bonus" if you are the actual finder of a block - but the details vary, and it's not universal.
Transaction fees on Bitcoin have gotten to the point of giving a pretty fair percentage of the block reward on an "average" block - I think I saw a figure posted somewhere of "19%" or close to that a few days back - so the folks worrying about block rewards halfings making mining unprofitable have a lot less to worry about. On the other hand, the recent wide agreement about "impliment Segwit, and 2MB blocks in the next 6 months" that came out of Concensus might make things interesting - *IF* it actually gets adhered to this time, the last such agreement never got implimented. |
