Title: Multiple workers from single S9 Post by: Stavroski on December 06, 2020, 06:58:12 PM Hi All,
I have bought an S9 for my sons and I to play with (more of a learning/fun activity rather than a get rich quick scheme!) Is there a way to create multiple workers that mine to their own pools from the same s9? For example? Assume the s9 runs at 14th. I want a workers that runs at 4TH for Solo Mining (ckpool) Son 1 wants his own worker that runs at 5TH on a pool of his choice Son 2 wants his own worker that runs at 5th on a pool of his choice. I know this is counter intuitive based on getwork requests, etc but I dont want to buy 3 x S9's that are good for nothing as it is!

What you can do instead is download AwesomeMiner, it's free since you have only 1 miner, and then use the change pool command based on time intervals and so you can achieve Son 1 worker : 12AM to 12PM Son 2 worker : 12PM to 12AM You can do 6 hours each or any other combination, but try to switch pools as less frequently as possible since it results in a loss of some mining rewards. |
