1  Bitcoin / Mining support / Re: Axeos just shows loading on: September 27, 2025, 08:05:58 PM
Only just spotted your thread, I had similar problems when I first got a BitAxe Gamma.

I found if you have port forwarding set-up on a network to act as a bridge between local subnets it doesn't propagate correctly so only ever shows the loading page.

Also had problems accessing it via a proxy, same results only ever shows the loading page.

I fixed my problems simply by putting the BitAxe on the same LAN as my FTTP router and the accessing it from the same network so my Laptop and BitAxe on the same LAN, no proxy or port forwarding.

Seems like you may have had a similar issue.

is it really possible to mine Bitcoin using an Android phone?
-snip-
There's a simple answer to this.

NO!

Even the fastest GPU and Desktop computers are incapable of mining BTC

Anyone claiming they can mine BTC on a phone or low powered Microcontroller is selling you nothing but a scam.

If you're serious about wanting to mine BTC the easiest way is to get an entry level ASIC miner such as a Gekko Science compac F or one of the many BitAxe devices like the BitAxe Gamma

Entry level these days needs to ideally have performance in excess of 1TerraHash per second.

You're most welcome, but you also have the community support to thank for keeping the pool running with donations during the couple of years where very few blocks were being solved. The pool celebrated 11 years of operation this August 31st.

Belated happy birthday CKPool  Grin

I believe @philipma1957 uses hosted rigs, perhaps they know a bit more about it.

I had a discussion with them some time ago here about a hosted S21XP

5  Bitcoin / Mining speculation / Re: What is the USD amount for the 98% I will receive for mining a block? on: September 21, 2025, 10:24:33 AM
The current block payout reward for a solo block is BTC3.125 + fees which are variable.

Take off the 2% for the pool reward then run the result through one of the many price conversion sites.

https://duckduckgo.com/?t=ffab&q=btc+price&ia=cryptocurrency

Ignoring the value of fees and the pool cost at the time of writing BTC3.125 would be worth $361,552.34


Mining solo the chance at 473TH/s of finding a block is:-

Chance per block: 1 in 2,132,748
Chance per day: 1 in 14,811
Time estimate: 41 years

for odds use this:-

It's all about your network setup and why would you add such proxy in your setup? Of course it brings more to latency.

In Whatsminer settings there ain't things you can do to make latency better.
I aggregated with a power proxy. And I set the difficulty of each device to 262,000 without rejection. Is that okay?


please help me Undecided Undecided Undecided

Anything you stick in the way of your miner and the pool will only ever increase latency it will never decrease it. I've no idea why you would put a proxy in the way, it makes no sense.

In terms of network infrastructure, your miner should ideally be connected directly by wire to your internet gateway/router equipment. Don't use WiFi or WiFi repeaters unless you've no other option.

After that you have zero control over the network infrastructure and the latency between you and the pool is just purely down to the physical route between your gateway and the pool server over the internet.

Are you using the best ckpool server for your location?

Yes, all very well. But why would you need to use it?  Huh

Just connect your miners directly to the pool.

Yet this is the first time you've posted here!?

Thanks but no thanks, there's just one too many "NEO" new pools popping up with no credibility and ZERO history.

Why would anyone trust their hard earned hash-rate to a noob pool?



Not exactly what you would call a shining example of a recent history eh!?

Over a year since your pool reported.

11  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: GekkoScience has a new stickminer that does 300+GH on: September 02, 2025, 10:34:51 PM

What kind of USB hub are you running them from, does it have capacity to run 3 devices at the same time typically you need a USB hub that'll do 2.5-3Amps per port for the CompacF to run reliably.

See this table




I'm using the Gekkoscience 8 Port USB Hub 2.0, which successfully runs 3 sticks in the past.

I can't tell from the cgminer logging if the problem is with the sticks, usb hub, or configuration. This can be seen in my screenshots.



Try a different hub with just one stick at a time. I suspect your hub may be faulty.

Thank you.

I think you must have a better heat-sink than is fitted on my BitAxe Gamma. My temps seem to be 5-10C more than yours.

Hello all,

for some bitaxe user here, maybe the tuning script is nice to know.

https://github.com/mrv777/Bitaxe-Hashrate-Benchmark/

you can auto tune the speed parameter to the best value.


Standard Usage
Run the benchmark tool by providing your Bitaxe's IP address:

python bitaxe_hashrate_benchmark.py <bitaxe_ip>
Optional parameters:

-v, --voltage: Initial voltage in mV (default: 1150)
-f, --frequency: Initial frequency in MHz (default: 500)
Example:

python bitaxe_hashrate_benchmark.py 192.168.2.29 -v 1175 -f 775

try it out, i moved my bitaxe gamma from 1.2 to 1.6 THs

Best regards,
Willi

Hi Willi,

What was the impact on the thermal performance by doing this?

I've noticed even small variation in the voltage and frequency can make a big difference to the temperatures

Hello everyone I have 15 m30++ 110th devices connected to the proxy. What number should I set the difficulty for each device?

It shouldn't matter as I believe the pool will adjust to suite your rate but if you need a default difficulty 2.5*GH/s is a good guide so around 275,000 for each @ 110TH/s.
16  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: GekkoScience has a new stickminer that does 300+GH on: August 29, 2025, 12:05:55 AM
I'm having trouble figuring out why my three sticks won't initialize and I've posted a few screenshots if someone could help.

My boot script has always worked before:

sudo ./cgminer -o stratum+tcp://solo.ckpool.org:3333 -u xxx -p x --suggest-diff 442 --gekko-compacf-freq 425 --gekko-mine2 --gekko-tune2 85 --gekko-start-freq 350

Hello ck,
the 4334 is not ok? I mean, it works.. I am finding shares..
Thanks.

Regards, Frank

As -CK said, you need to be on the other port 3333 for lower hash rate equipment 17TH/s will require a much lower difficulty to return shares regularly enough for a stable hash rate to be shown on the stats page.

Port 4334 is for high performance systems and rentals >1PH/s


Use port 3333 things will be better for you.
