Title: Burstmining with pool or solo?
Post by: Lindworm on September 12, 2017, 07:27:31 PM
Hi,
I have now plotted 30TB of spare HDD I have lying around.

My Question: Is that enough to mine solo, or would I be better off with a pool and if a pool would be the best option, wich pool would you pick?
Thank you for your answers.

Well, for solo mining you need space to keep wallet blockchain. But you need hash power anyway.

Ok, I have a linux system with a 16TB raid, how large is the Blockchain right now?

Hashpower? I thought this is not about gpu mining.

(I am a noob in burst, but mining with a pool works)

go with pool, not sure if 30 TB is enough for solo mine. Blockchain is around 5.5 GB.
btw, I lost hope on this coin, I am not sure how much is worth mining it. You will see.

Depends on your luck i guess. You could get lucky with blocks as a solo miner, and 30TB isnt that bad. But for steady profit i'd recommend joining one of the pools.
Try to find one that is recommended for your size  :D

I find it even hard to find pools, any trick to see that a pool is my size?

better to use for mining in solo than to make a swimming pool if for mining only need a special room as a workplace while the pond takes a long time to the manufacturing process and I think the benefits are also not comparable with the mining results.

I got a decent amount of space I'm using for solo mining.  How long it takes to forge a block solo mining varies.  Here's what I have done so far this month:

So 14 blocks in 12 days, or just under 1.2 blocks a day.  Current payout about $18 per block, so about $21 / day or roughly the same as you can make mining with 6x 1080Ti cards, give or take.

Hi Crazydane,
Great figures, how much space do you have please?

Hi,

Def POOL, you'll just burn cash soloing with that amount.

I was mining with 14TB back in Feb/March and was getting a block every 1-2 days ish, but as it became popular that dropped to every 5-7 days, and soon 1 block every 7-10 days.
This was before all the attacks and the massive difficulty increases, so i decided to stop mining burst.

Sorry i wouldn't know any of the new pools, but try https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UPjxzkqiglw (imineblocks)
He is a UK crypto guy who seems to talk sense, he has gone through similar ups and down to me with burst, and has recently swapped pools. It's all in his vids.

About $1/month for 1 TB.

100TB $100 per month.

That is what i earned anyways.

Damn danes and their pentabyte rigs. Jokes aside, care to share how much you are mining with? :D

I have been mined from 23.August with 80Tb in Burst mining club pool, until now (about 3 weeks) my balance is 4737 Burst with 2 forged blocks.

I think joining a pool is a good choice, and you could reference calculator as below (I suggest you just *0.7 to estimate your mined coins):
