Title: Two difficulty
Post by: sunjar2013 on March 09, 2014, 02:57:31 PM
Dear Group:
    I have a question about SOLO Mining, when I use CGminer to SOLO Mining, I found the output message about "network diff" is very high, usually over 100k, but in the pool or Wallet I can saw the difficulty only less 10,But if I solo mining other crypto coin the CGMiner's diff same with wallet and pool.   why there have two different difficulty at same time?

Why you are mining solo? I know many pools are scam, but there are many good pools and mining p2pool is most profitable.

Mining solo require reeeeaaalllyyy good rig man.

When using a pool the difficulty is the quality of share you need to submit to get partial credit for a block that is found.  If 10,000 people each submit 1 1 difficulty share then they will each get 1/10000 of the block reward.

When solo mining you need to actually solve the block and so the difficulty is the actual solving difficulty.  You will get 100% of the block reward if you are successful.

Ok :) Good luck than! :)

Solo mining gives you only one thing that p2pool can't give.
100% sure that you will get your mined coins :P
(maybe 99%)

p2pool might scam.


best wishes and see you around!

Kind regards.  BTC
