Which period for a block should we expect?
Unless you have a massive farm with multiple petahash running you should never expect to find a block.

Hey, look at that, we got a block and I didn't even notice.

Shortly after I started mining... coincidence? Yes, yes it is.
|
|
|
I would have just wrote "No.", but I didn't want to presume to speak for ck.
|
|
|
Any plans to launch more solo on other coins?
Unlikely.

Which is the real advantage of setting the minimum difficulty? Will it result in a lower rejected proof of works? Will it lower also the accepted proofs of works because of their higher difficulty? That's a thing that I never worried about but I'm wondering if should I be setting something to have better performance in some ways. Thanks in advance to anyone that will explain me that.
It has no effect on performance, only the feedback you receive from the pool e.g. your hash rate.

No thank you to any merge mining of altcoins.

You might want to reset your router to factory defaults as well, and reconfigure your whole network from the ground up.

also someone who is starting out mining liking isn't going to begin with an asic but if you tell them to fuck off they likely won't use your pool when they do get an asic
Totally incorrect, anyone starting in with bitcoin will start with an ASIC device, because that is the only relevant hardware for mining bitcoin. I started with an antminer U3, and when I stopped mining I was using an avalon A6. If you want to learn get yourself a $20 usb stick miner.

Hello fairly new to this. When I am on the solo users page and it shows my workers and their shares, is there anyway to tell on that page if one of my miners found a block?
Thank you.
When your wallet has +12.5btc then you know you found a block.

You jumped in at a tough time. It's all negative news in the Media right now. Obviously, I still think things will recover. But, it sure feels better when every day is a new ATH, like back in mid-December.
It's always negative news in the media, it has been since I started mining and bitcoin was less than $200. I hope the media keeps reporting like they have been.

Has anyone in the solo pool ever solved a block with a gekkoscience 2pac ASIC miner or have heard other stories of these type of devices solving blocks?
We used to have a "best share" fun run for gekko sticks that pointed to this pool, I think the highest share ever was just over 1 billion; no one has ever come close to a block solve.

Thanks for answer. So in this situation is some benefit to hold cgminer running on my RPi2 without mining USB Stick? This would be like having a monitor without a computer and wondering why you can't use the internet.

If you can find an old S3 that's a solid 500 GH/s that will run reasonably quiet, i.e. you can run it in your home and not be bothered by it.
Nice to see the pool hash rate up, let's get a block!

Holy crap! 10.85445524 BTC in fees . Congrats to 1B5nA9AyLxtRmA16S4YCXR5D1r9Z9j1wBg. Daaaaaayyyyyuuuuummmm

I'm sure anyone who has been waiting for 6 months or more for their dust will be glad they didn't get it and spend it back then My dust was worth like $2 when I stopped mining; I think it's over $150 now.
|
|
|
Thanks, yes I meant the auto cash out value, but neglected to state that. Makes sense, though, mine on!
|
|
|
With they skyrocket in BTC value has there been any discussion about reducing the minimum payout value from 0.01 to maybe 0.001, or something?
|
|
|
Does anyone know where I can get some help paying out dust payments? I know they are not automatically sent out but the dust payments I had a while ago are now worth 26 dollars in my currency! Obviously I want to get my hands on them. Is there some way I can get cashed out for these?
My dust here was worth about $2 when I stopped mining, it is now worth over $100. I'm looking forward to the "accounting code" getting put in. Hopefully my dust will be worth $1000 then.
