Most people mine with Newpac's for the fun of it.  There is always a slight chance of finding a share that meets or exceeds the current difficulty for finding a block.  You have to decide for yourself what your point or goal is.

I understand and thank you very much for the explanation. Good luck to you.

You didn't find a block!  A block was found on the network.  That happens about once every 10 minutes.

The chances of your finding a block with a Newpac are beyond astronomical.

Also if your miner found a block you would have a best share value above current difficulty.

Ah, thank you for the explanation and help. I thought I was playing the lottery. So what's the point of leaving NEWPACK on? What is the advantage and goal of this?
Is the difficulty set low or high?

It means just what it says. A new block was found on the network.  The pool was slow in detecting the new block and sending your miner new work.  Happens from time to time.  Has nothing to do with your miner.

Sure, but no payment appeared in my wallet, so I thought I had a badly set miner .... So how does a "lottery win" work out? Thank you

Hello yall,

I'm new here, I use USB Gekko NEWPACK.
This week, during solo mining at CKPOOL, the following message popped up:
"New block detected on networkbefore pool notification stratum from pool 0 at height 674900". What does it mean? I have a difficulty setting of 512 and 400Mhz overclock.

Thank you
