Title: [ANN] Solopool BETA Post by: Graet on July 26, 2013, 05:49:25 AM Announcing Solopool BETA Many miners want to gamble on solo mining, unfortunately not all have the skills to setup solo and the stats they would like. Why Solopool? We aim to offer a "pool like" experience but blockfinders will be rewarded 24.5+(1/2 transaction fees from block)BTC ie: rewards will not be shared among other miners. Only miners with 100Gh/s or greater hashrates should apply - a good rule of thumb is: if your hashrate will not on average generate a block within a difficulty period you should not be solo mining. Currently:<gribble> The average time to generate a block at 100000.0 Mhps, given difficulty of 31256960.7278, is 2 weeks, 1 day, 12 hours, 54 minutes, and 56 seconds Features: Stratum only Variable difficulty set at 50 on connect Manual payouts daily of confirmed blocks at approx 1230UTC The Bitcoin address entered on signup can be used as worker name Individual stats No coins will be held on solopool servers WebIRC or IRC on freenode #solopool for real-time support Coming soon: Idle worker emails User settable difficulty Signups: https://solopool.net Please consider if this is the best option for you before registering Thank you and good luck Graet, Blaksmith and Wayno Note: Solo mining either on Solopool or by yourself is a high variance mining method - we can not be responsible for your luck! Title: Re: [ANN] Solopool BETA Post by: Graet on November 21, 2013, 09:53:02 AM Solopool is operational and is gaining interest :)
Best place for support is #solopool on freenode IRC or click the "Web IRC" link when logged in and it will bring you to IRC Title: Re: [ANN] Solopool BETA Post by: crazyearner on November 22, 2013, 10:18:39 PM So how does this work then I just connect up and mine and wait and hopefully find a block from the land of the lucky ones?
Title: Re: [ANN] Solopool BETA Post by: Marty19 on November 23, 2013, 12:09:42 AM Would have thought that anyone with 100GH/s would know how to solo mine ...... :P
Title: Re: [ANN] Solopool BETA Post by: -ck on November 23, 2013, 12:16:17 AM Not really, 100GH is a trivial amount these days...
Title: Re: [ANN] Solopool BETA Post by: os2sam on November 23, 2013, 02:28:59 AM Would have thought that anyone with 100GH/s would know how to solo mine ...... :P There are plenty who now have allot of hash power but don't know how to solo mine. But I would think this would be ideal for those who are using Pi's and such that can't download the block chain on their low resource mining machines.

A few questions here is my settings page http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/1280x1024q90/855/4cse.png and here is my mining page.

Oh, yeah while we're at it, what about a 'pool stats' page, showing the total blocks won by all the users connected to the pool, the overall 'luck' and the total payout ? Is there a UK or EU solopoll server ? Actually, has anyone mined any blocks using solopool.

I was the 1st block finder (I assume if 2nd was in August). 200GHs in March, 2014, FYI. Solving hash was 12.5 billion or so. I'd almost given up on my Avalon. I'd continue pointing 200+GHs machines here. Trustworthy guys, quick to respond via IRC, legit. I was an ozco.in and triplemining user before. The site has been reliable. Solo's the way to go with my energy costs (~$0.10 kWh). Sounds weird, but seems more worth it to gamble with $1.50/day or something like that versus barely scraping by over a month. I offset that cost by drinking one fewer beers per day :) --Brain Two part answer here. :) We have just had our 2nd block found! WOOT! The lucky block winner has been paid already too!

Title: Re: [ANN] Solopool BETA Post by: landy on November 09, 2014, 11:05:37 AM You are not alone, i have same problem, "from Sweden / EU " It started some month ago.
I think it may be a port problem that is being blockt , it think it maybe port 3333 that is being block på your ISP or bye your router. On Monday i am going to call my ISP and check it out. Another thing i have discovered is on my new miner dragon a1, is that it says the pool have stratum but it is not active. If i mine at btc guild it says " Has Stratum and Stratum Active " and i have a Stratum URL " stratum-lb48.btcguild.com " But i get no info from this pool. And ps, i was the second one that did found the block on this pool. it worked fine till i got one then the pool started behave strange with the connection.
