^^^ Exactly. It's preposterous.

You can change your BTC address, so you have new fresh one of statistics...
I'd agree with that, but that would get very boring very quickly! I know it's not imperative but it's just out of interest. LIke a game of bingo, you play the game, see how close you get, game ends, start afresh and so on. I dont see the point/benefit of seeing your highest share for a previous block and that being displayed. It's like hanging on to that bingo card from 3 months ago where you almost won! Never happen. Stats would reset every 10 minutes and take too much processing for ck to mess with. |

My guess? "Jyna"
They like to think they own BTC

bitcoin basic usb miners running Mac miner 2 pointed to solo.ckpool.org:3333 using BTC address as username
Okay great, but I still don't understand what your question is. I think maybe he meant "1 accepted" instead of "1 excepted". Maybe English is his second language. |

Hello guys.
I would appreciate if any of you helps me with step by step giude how to start mining. Im a newbie on mining , and would like to have an explanation simple step by step.
Thank you
Step 1. Go to bitmain.com and get a miner. Step 2. Get a power supply at the same time or use a computer power supply of 1200 watts. Step 3. Plug into wall. Step 4. Setup the network connection (wired) as per unit's instructions. Step 5. Point your miner to Ck's solo pool. Step 6. In anywhere from 1 minute to about three years, PROFIT. Remember, mining is a game of lottery tickets. Each "share" is a ticket. You win if your ticket number is higher than the current difficulty. You could (theoretically) win on the first pull. Or you could never win. It's a game of chance with numbers in the infinity range. Im planing in the future to buy some antminers to create a small farm. But i wanted to test it with my pc , how it works, just to become more familiar with the process. No.  |

Best share is in the top bar.
Funny, I looked that thing up and down and never saw that top bar. I guess I expected it to be with the rest of the data in the center tables. Ah well.  Thanks Muffinz! |

If you simply put a COMMA after ever 3 numbers i.e. 2,988,020,218 to make reading best share faster I'd offer up my first 3 gfs as slaves to you. Such a simple thing can mean so much. *Disclaimer: Girls may or may not have attitude problems for you to sort out.  Should be doing that already. Here's all i'm seeing  |

In case it wasn't clear, this works just like solo.ckpool.org stats: https://visual-ckpool.herokuapp.com/users/<YOUR ADDRESS> If you simply put a COMMA after ever 3 numbers i.e. 2,988,020,218 to make reading best share faster I'd offer up my first 3 gfs as slaves to you.

I just thought there was graphic info, but if this it what I get then it's ok.  Kids these days. Give them a novel and they'll wonder why it doesn't have any pictures. |

.. just solo mine and pray Do this. |

It just give you an idea of what it would take if the Diff doesn't change for a year. We all know it doesn't work like that. Why is this so outrageous ?
Because Kano likes to be a pseudo-intellectual. In his mind: Chance of you finding a block in one day: 1 in 1,929.6 is, somehow, magically different than Your Average Time per Block: 1929days 14hr 58min 29sec[1] He just can't grasp that saying "1 in 1,929.6" and "average of ~5.3 years" (based on 5.5TH/s) are the exact same thing. Basically if you're not a sycophant, you're wrong even if you agree.  [1] 1929days 14hr 58min 29sec = ~5.3 years This conversation is obviously dead. Now that it's past, what's a good btc address for you CG? You deserve a present. |

However, converting that to 1 in Xyears is incorrect.
Then why do you do it in your calculator? Your Average Time per Block: 1768days 19hr 43min 37sec I find I'm liking your logical mind more and more. You are, however, arguing with Kano which will get you banned or jumped on by half the community. Just a heads up. As for your bestshare issue, it could be due to mining at a different site. One of your rollovers maybe. |

If I find a block, does that mean that if I was mining solo would i have solved that block too or the fact that I was pool mining made it easier for me to solve the block? Nope, the pool sends you special code that goes into every share. You just got lucky with your miner's code plus that special code only available at that pool and you solved a block, which you now share with everyone else on the pool. When mining on pool, the advantage is that there are more miners trying to solve a block on their own or do all the miners in the pool work as one?
Yes and yes. All miners work as one as far as the block is concerned. And there are more miners working toward that goal, each as a "hive mind". That's oversimplified, but that's the gist of it. |

Ok. So I have a question, thanks in advance for whoever replies and sorry in advance if it annoys anyone.
When solo mining, if I want to spend some coin on a 5 ph rental, that would give me a probability of hitting a block in 48 hours correct? By sending around 213 b shares. in case that I "start from zero"
If I have already mined for some time and have lets say submitted 100 b shares already and then do the rental are my chances better since I have already a submitted some shares or it doesn't make any difference?
Or if a connect a new miner will it skip all the shares that have already been submitted ( that we already know won't solve a block) or will it start over again and maybe submit shares that have already been submitted?
Hope I was clear enough!
Thanks
No, Apederzoli, it doesn't work like that. You can submit 293449829843499494488 billion shares and each one has just as much chance as the previous one of hitting a block. You could hit it on the first share. It doesn't matter. Think of it as a scratch off lotto ticket. You can sit and scratch 100 tickets, but that doesn't make you any closer to hitting a winner. You could scratch one and win. That's why so many people still run 30mh USB miners. They have very little hash so shared mining is worthless to them, but they could hit that one "solo" ticket and win big. So they still try. Several 5PH rentals have hit a block. Several more haven't. Your luck is just that, luck. You're only improving your chances by renting a bunch of hash at once. Thanks for the reply. In that case, what does the best share means? If all shares have the same probability of solving the block why is there a best one ? Like ComputerGenie said, Best Share is just for fun. You can look at it and say "Dang, I missed it by that much!" |

You are missing the fact that Mikestang is giving liveflipcoin crap for ding the exact same thing that Mikestang had done! One month after Mikestang joined, he asked a question that could have been answered using search (but used the "I've only been here a month" excuse for not searching). The topic is irrelevant when Mikestang's attitude is over the action of not using search (by someone that's only been here a month). <- See the douchey, dick irony?
While I think it's great that some folks will answer a question multiple times, giving no reply is far more productive than calling it a "dumb question" just because someone didn't search it.
If 4,000,000,000 ask the same question 4,000,000,000 separate times, it doesn't make it a "dumb question" just because it's been asked 4,000,000,000 separate times (it just makes it a massively annoying reiteration).
This. Mikestang has kind of become the resident grouch in the trash can. He didn't used to be this way, but lately he has little patience, quickly pouncing on newbies. We were all new once. Just answer the question or shake your head and move along. Maybe offer them some flowers and welcome them to bitcoin...  |

My last solve was 270B.
Pool's running slow now. Lol.
Pool fee went up, hash rate went down, difficulty went up. It's all numbers. It'll happen again, it'll just take a bit longer. |
