No it is Not better.
But how more hashpower you have so more chance to find a block.

A miner of this size has about a 1 in 30,000 chance of finding a block each day.

Congrats to the Lucky miner
And now the Miner ramp up the hashpower, i see 4PH at the moment on that BTC address on the ckpool.

I would be happy to setup a Farm with Members or Owners' of the Farm to do this.

Each has a piece of it and each has a piece of the Expenses AND 'Winnings' as well.

I won't sell the CWI one - but We could easily setup another one.

So holding a certain hash for many years doesn't result in a block? Like, 60 TH connected for about 2-8 years doesn't increase the chance? I've seen several blocks of that size pop up in the last few years.

even because the pool completed 11 years of existence in this year of 2025, according to the record on the network

I don't think you understand how it works.

What you are saying is like expecting last weeks lottery ticket to have an effect on your winning this weeks lottery.

It doesnt work like that.

Every time a block is mined the game starts again.

The higher the hash rate you have the more entries("Shares") into the game you get.

The more entries("Shares") you have the greater the odds are you'll find a hash that has a higher value than the network difficulty.

Is this the donation adress: 1PKN98VN2z5gwSGZvGKS2bj8aADZBkyhkZ 

i will show some support for this Pool before i start Mining next days...

Thanks, much appreciated! That's an old address, which still works but I'd prefer if you use the current pool mining address bc1q28kkr5hk4gnqe3evma6runjrd2pvqyp8fpwfzu . You can confirm the address by looking at the fee going to that address from the previous blocks https://mempool.space/mining/pool/solock

Hi,

I think it's great that you are continuing the CK EU Solo Pool, I'm just wondering if my setup is good enough.

I have my own node with a good latency, my internet connection is 1 Gbit, but my upload is only 50M bit.

I'm wondering if I should continue solo mining via the public pool with Umbrel or if I should switch back to the CK EU pool.

I think your systems might have a better technical connection than my home network! Are there any technical details about the EU solo mining pool, if so, could you share them with me?

 Just to also help with understanding, luck is just based on your hashing power vs the network entire hashing power. It's a big lottery and every hash is one entry with a winner about every 10 minutes, after that everyone hashing is back at it! However even at 60TH you will end up a winner sooner or later. Provided network hash rate remains the exact same (which it won't) you will find a block between the next 10 minutes to about 315 years, statistically.

to put it another way.

Doesn't matter who it is, or where they mine BTC to.

If you only have a Bitaxe 601 and are trying to hit a BTC block;  you have a ~0.007% chance of hitting a block in one year.   Anything more or less is just a lucky nonce.  Nothing more, nothing less.

Shares on a solo pool are just a measure of if your miner is still reporting things to the pool... they dont count for anything other than a heartbeat.

If you are doing merged mining (merged pool share mining, not solo);  your shares count for your share of the winnings;  but thats in relation to the difficulty of shares being given.  If your machine is reporting shares at 1,000+ difficulty;  they will be worth less of a cut than the other person's shares being reported at 100,000+ difficulty.  in fact, 100 times less.

See how it works?


BTW;  congrats to the recent pool winner.   I noticed my miner's high diff result reset the day the block was found.    Since I finally bought a house and could afford to;  I finally got and plugged in a lottery machine after all these years of absence.   I moved away from my old spot where I had free power (back when the S7 was brand new, I ran one in my RV for many years all for free).    But hey, power in Wisconsin is not anything compared to the cost of Cali where I was originally at.

some instances it was over 0.40/kwh....

[Nexus9090]

It still is depending on the supplier, you really have to keep shopping around to get the best deal and try and avoid lock-ins and exit fees.

Octopus energy were about the cheapest on my last revision a couple of months ago, £0.41 daily standing charge and £0.25/KWh

I think British Gas were the worst, IIRC it was round £0.48 daily and £0.31/KWh so around $0.41/KWh

You have to know how the bitcoin mining prozess work.
Every ~10 Minutes a block is solved, the next period begins and EVERYBODY starts from zero again, it doesen't matter how long you tryed to solve a block (Hours, Minutes, Years).
This is the reason why realy EVERYBODY can solve a block, even with a small (but not to small) hashrate, because its random.
Why not to small you may ask, your miner must be able to process a share before ~10 min. are over, otherwise it will not in time submit his share before someone else solve the block.
Given the actual diff. even massiv amount of hashrate does not garantie you to solve a block every time.

My understand of the pool even if you don't fine shares you can still find a block? So regardless if you submit shares or not it makes no difference since you're not sharing the block reward with a community of miners

NO! It makes no difference to other folks but you MUST submit shares for a shot at the lottery. If you are trying to use say a Nerdminer (70kHs) and never are able to submit a share because it is a pretty TOY that is far far too slow, there is no way you can 'find a block'.

At a minimum, new work - a new share - is sent to everyone in the pool every time a block is found on the network. In response you must submit at least 1 share back to the pool before the next block is found (on average every 10min). Most folks receive and submit around 18 shares/min. Shares are proof that you have a valid miner that is doing work.

[beaverbot]

So if I magically find a block with a slow miner since i never submitted a share I wont get credit for my work or the block reward? I mine for fun and I'm hashing more than a nerd miner and I never submitted a share. I mine to this pool and I'm hashing in the MH's which isn't anything but it's more than those miners you where talking about. What's the minimum hash rate to find shares?

A block ultimately is a high share. The pool FAQ says 100GH minimum. You're wasting your time and the pool's bandwidth with 2010 mining equipment. Your name is also suggestive that you're running a botnet of CPUs mining, and if so - don't do that.
