Title: Solo mining LTC DOGE : 25x 16MH or 4x 100MH ?? Post by: Boakse on November 19, 2019, 08:43:33 PM I am considering to try my luck in Scrypt (LTC DOGE) solo mining :)
Have some gear laying around, so I don't have to buy. Is there a difference in the chance of hitting a Block between: - 25x 16MH with all using a different payout Address? (The pool "sees" 25 miners) - combine the 16MH in 4x 100MH using a different payout Address? (The pool "sees" 4 miners, ) - combine all the power (400MH) on 1 payout address (The pool "sees" 1 miner, however it is 25x16MH using the same address) Does any of this give a bigger chance in solo mining?

Yeah, the more hashrate is a bigger chance, I know. But using more miners, does -not even slight- give a bigger chance? Title: Re: Solo mining LTC DOGE : 25x 16MH or 4x 100MH ?? Post by: Huxley23 on November 19, 2019, 09:59:11 PM One again, only your global hashrate is important. 25x16 is the same as 400(which consists of 25x16 miners).

Yeah, the more hashrate is a bigger chance, I know. But using more miners, does -not even slight- give a bigger chance? The simple answer is no. Total hash is all that matters. Complex answer is maybe in some cases, but not your example. If you are renting from nicehash a number like 5gh which is around 10x l3+ you would be better off with 2 rentals of 2.5gh The reason in this special case is a miner could be using different firmware/software and it has a block hitting issue. So one rental of 10gh all from the same guy using shitty firmware/software means you can't win. Two separate rentals means you have 2 shots at finding a guy with good firmware/software so you chance of winning may be better also may not. Since in the case of 1 rental 10 good units from 1 guy vs 2 rentals 5 good units and 5 bad units the single rental is better. In your case your 16 pieces all use same mining firmware and software so it should not matter. Title: Re: Solo mining LTC DOGE : 25x 16MH or 4x 100MH ??
