1  Bitcoin / Pools / Running a mining pool with Public Pool on Umbrel on: January 27, 2024, 11:36:44 AM
It is now possible to run your own mining pool on Umbrel with the software from Public pool. That's really fun to be able to do. If someone ever finds a block this way, how can we make sure it doesn't become an orphan block? How can we ensure that the luck of ever finding a block isn't spoiled by an orphan block.

We should have Public pool broadcast its block fast to important distribution points. These would then quickly broadcast the block across the network. The Bitcoin node is, of course, also connected to its own peers, but we don't know if they are fast enough.


My question is what can we do to ensure that the chance of an orphan block is as small as possible.

Hello all,

I am looking for a bitcoin lottery miner. I like the idea of mining Bitcoin but I can't afford to buy big machines because they make too much noise and take up a lot of space. The idea is to find a small bitcoin miner that is cheap (less than $1000), doesn't make noise, and still has a chance of mining a block even if that chance is low. A bit like a kind of lottery game that gives you a very small chance of winning among millions of combinations.

I will then let this little miner mine for life in a corner and who knows, maybe one day he will mine a block.

I exclude USB miners because it will require a computer and I do not prefer to leave it on 24/24 for security reasons.

Anyone have any idea on something reliable in these criteria?

Thanks!

You can take a closer look at the GekkoScience USB asic miner, which can be purchased separately, for example, Newpac 90 Gh /s for $100, and in the proposed configurations indicated on their website as part of several devices with installed fans and a usb hub.

I believe the gekkoscience website is a scamsite. They don't have a website. The usb-miners are sold with resellers.

Hi,

I'm running a bitcoin loterymachine. The miner only has 4Th witch i'm running at 1Th. There is something i find hard to understand and could not find an answer to. In the admin screen of the miner it talks about difficulty and diffA.

After a couple off days running the diffA sits at around 40.000.000 . After i turn the miner off it starts over again starting from 0. If i look at the difficulty of the new blocks they are around
40.000.000.000 or so. Is it right that the miner needs to run for a couple of weeks to even come close of the todays block difficulty? Or i'm i compleetly wrong.
