Solo mining with Antminer S1

[jcaldwell373]

So I was able to get my Antminer S1 to mine locally.  However, every time I find a block, it rejects it.  HELP Please!!!

Far better to mine with these on a pool sir.. that chances of finding a solo block yourself... Well. Isn't in your favour. :/

I'm mining low difficulty alt coins and am finding several blocks.  They just all get rejected.  Why???

Orphans are huge on shitty set up altcoins.

I checked the debug...no orphan.  I also have been reading where this is a known issue for Antminer S1.  I just need to know how to fix it.

I feel your pain. I hate mining low diff altcoins with a pool. I have the same issue all blocks are rejected and no they arent orphans either. it is a known problem. the only solution is to pool mine or setup a stratum of your own. i havent tried that as i am using windows and the lack of support for setting up a stratum in windows is as bad as the lack of support for mining solo.

I once tried to solo mine BTC with an S1 just to see what it was like but was told in the BTC forums that the S1 can't solo mine. But I did manage
to get P2POOL running. Maybe you should look into that.

 yes, you can solo mine btc if you can lucky to find a block or take age to find one.
