700 MH , Solo or use a Pool (Ethereum)

[antantti]

if you have a reliable network connection with low latency

What is a low latency, say to ethpool.org.  I just pinged it at 66ms.  Is that "low"?

Try tracert ethpool.org. If your first hops are under 10ms you are good to go for eth solomining.

hm, maybe i should solo my ping is 18 ms avg but my hash is only 60 mh waiting for some place to sell rx 480 again id rather buy them from new egg places like that but those places are out of stock I got the cash so i wait.

i would solo with 700 mh and pool as well mostly solo till it becomes to hard .

tracert is first hop

1    <1 ms    <1 ms    <1 ms  Wireless_Broadband_Router.home [192.168.1.1]

Thats your own router. You need to look at first hop that is not on your/ your operators network.

You can try solomining with lower difficulty dagger-hashimoto coins. That gives you an idea about solo, if it still feels like your thing you can move on to bigger/ more profitable projects.

no it's not my thing i don't have the Patience for it , but if i had a closer hash rate of 1 gh i would give it a try .. i have tried solo with btc and ltc and other coins and stand at awe at  those that do and do give it some thought from time to time .

If you have less than 1 GH/s, you can solo mine the ETC, Ethereum Classic. If you want to mine Ethereum, use pool.

Etc nethash is only 220GH, you really don't need 1GH to find blocks. I am not saying it is profitable but still a really nice testing platform for someone who is interested.

The ETC nethash is 700 GH/s. now. It seems miners are moving there as it is more profitable to mine now.

hmmm, what can i say?

Some people busy trying to learn how to install linux?

Miners are chasing profit. When the big Ethereum holders dump their ETC, the price could be damaged.

The ETC nethash is 500 GH/s now. The drop is due to the drop of the ETC price relative to the ETH price.

forget tracert.. my network is by no means stellar and i have yet to uncle.

just try it, why is this forum so full of pansies?

[Rabinovitch]

As title, I expect a block every 0.97 days but as we know, That can vary, A lot.

Pool or solo?

Solo of course.
