Title: Solo mining (WARNING: NOOB QUESTION)
Post by: xxmetalmartyrxx on July 01, 2017, 03:04:36 PM
So I just started solo mining, and I'm wondering what my screen should look like... I'm used to mining in pools where it says "yes" every so often. I solo mined for quite some time and received no "yes". Am I doing something wrong? Or should I just be patient?

the "Yes" you get when you find a SHARE (just part of a block)
as solo-miner you have to find a block what is very unlikely if you don't have enough hash-power ;)

Ahhhh! Thank you. Right now I'm mining Verge, and running about 22mh/s. In 8hrs last night I got 2 blocks myself in a pool. So gonna test the waters again with solo lol
