Is there a way to know what "the best share ever" is?  When a block gets solved sometimes the hash provides a value that far exceeds the network difficulty.  I wonder what the best share ever is so far?  Pointless musing, but humor me.

i don't think there is a way to know the best share, but in 2013 i had read here about a guy that reached 400kk+

what is "share" in mining ?

a portion of the block reward, which is equal to your hash power

Also "share" can be considered each "solution" your miner tries to send.

yeah at the end share are your profit, you can see that in any pool easily, in solo mining your share is the entire block

English? higher hashrate of a pool = lower payouts, more frequent block finds (payouts). lower hashrate = higher payouts, less chance to find a block.

what is "share" in mining ?
Normally this relates to pooled mining, as already mentioned - I believe OP's asking about the lowest hash on blocks regardless of whether this was at a pool or 'solo', though.

Is there a way to know what "the best share ever" is?
Yes: parse the blockchain, get the hash value for each block Smiley
Kinda: parse all the blocks, including orphaned and otherwise rejected, get the hash value for each block.
No: in case a pool glitched or somebody withheld a block, etc., there's always a possibility - however remote - that the actual lowest hash is lost forever.

I suspect you were wondering if there's a site that already provides this statistic, though - I can't think of one off the top of my head, but I would guess that there has to be one.
Perhaps organofcorti already tracks this - if not, it's exactly the sort of thing that would fit right in on his site as one of those once-in-a-while posts Smiley
I did something similar for some altcoins a while back that had different PoW models, and checked if the nonce etc. had any influence on whether or not a block was found, what the hash of a block was, etc.  made for some fun graphs (had to learn graphing stuff with OO.o and later LO for work, was good exercise - of course LO goes and breaks stuff every other release... right now you can't custom-position the legend, it resets to top-left on file open. gah. /rant)

I can tell you that between blocks 328,000 and 350,999, block 334,261 with a hash of 000000000000000000002d414bb8f9175ba6c6563721e1ba2c1373c2bd94f29f appears to be the lowest - and I can only tell you that because those blocks were still in memory from an unrelated topic Smiley
There's bound to be lower further up in the chain, though - it'll just take longer to find them as the ratio of such low hash blocks vs all block hashes becomes lower.

But the people that will be added after will increase bitcoin price and else increase transaction , I'm right?? this probably better ? do you think ?

I'f you're trying to say "More global adoption, means a higher price", then I'd agree yes. The more business, people etc that use bitcoin daily, the more value it has.

Drat, wrong button.

I can tell you that between blocks 328,000 and 350,999, block 334,261 with a hash of 000000000000000000002d414bb8f9175ba6c6563721e1ba2c1373c2bd94f29f appears to be the lowest
[...]
There's bound to be lower further up in the chain, though - it'll just take longer to find them as the ratio of such low hash blocks vs all block hashes becomes lower.
There's an existing thread on this: For fun: the lowest block hash yet, so I'll just post an update there.  fwiw, 334,261 was indeed the lowest.

Thanks, that post hadn't been posted to in 20 months, so you can see how I missed it (having only joined the forum last month).

What do you mean by the best share? The share in the mining pool or the hash of a block?

read up and follow the link.  tl;dr: he meant hash of the block, but in the case of lowest hash at pools - answer also already given (tl;dr: impossible to know without placing extra conditions on the definition, which just yields lowest block-in-blockchain hash again)

Well, what took you so long?
