you can confirm its legit by taking the btc address of the previous block winners in past posts, and pasting it into https://tradeblock.com/bitcoin/you will see the pay out they received from the pool dude, go back a few pages. CK posts every block that is found. I have been a member of this group for 7 years and there has never been a complaint. You want to check on blocks, they are all posted. Read back through the threads!!

I cannot believe how wrong most of you are, and considering some of you have been around for so long on here should know better.
Ck is a very trustworthy pool operator so you will never have an issue there.
As for the pool paying you out, no CK does not do payouts like you might be used to with other pools..
CK Pool is a direct coinbase mining pool, so what that means is that the pool just gives you work and if you happen to find a block it will relay your payload to the bitcoin network.
Then the bitcoin network will generate the new coins into your address minus the fees which is also automatically generated in the pools address.
So there is no waiting for pool payments like you would wait with everyone else, if you find a share high enough then you will instantly see the coins minus the fee in your address.
However you will have to wait till 101 confirmations to be able to send them and use them.

That is strange. The network transfers directly to my address, but the fees are forwarded to the pool? But the pool says it takes 2%, not just the fees. I don't see how can the pool take 2% (or any other arbitrary value), without reporting itself as the block founder, and then taking thos 2% and transfer de 98% to my address.

Very easy, do some research about mining and the actual protocol.. Coins are generated at 2 addresses instead of one as can be seen. Block amounts are always fixed + fees, so if you do a coinbase check. (The data your miner is exchanging with the pool and decode it you will see your address and the pools adress with static amount to pay out) CK has no control whatsoever with the coins, as you are doing direct coinbase mining. Also due to it being coinbase mining, you yourself can make a quick little program to check randomly whenever you want the actual coinbase that you are mining, and that will reassure and prove that CK is trustworthy and not stealing hashrate and blocks like 99% of the other shitcoin pools.
Then the bitcoin network will generate the new coins into your address minus the fees which is also automatically generated in the pools address.

I don't see how can the pool take 2% (or any other arbitrary value), without reporting itself as the block founder, and then taking thos 2% and transfer de 98% to my address. Like said above the coins are generated directly into block finders address and ckpools 2% fee address... Coinbase mining allows multi address payouts without the requirement for a 3rd party to issue them. It's done directly via multi generation and not a single address.. What most other pools do is totally different, they mine to own address then distribute via there own database the payout reward.. But that's also with a reason, especially when there is 1000s of different payout addresses mining together to earn that same reward. Where here its only you mining for yourself, you don't find a block you don't get paid hence the term "solo". Over there you will always be paid your share even if your personal miners don't find a block

I tried mining with stratum + tcp: //solo.ckpool.org: 3333 using OS: Windows11, cgminer ver3.7.2, Geforce RTX 3090. The average speed is displayed as 2.148Gh / s. Is this the correct speed? The GekkoScience Compac F USB is 350Gh / s, but the Geforce RTX 3090 is too slow. Please teach.

CPU/GPU mining bitcoin is a waste of time... and the pool won't show any of your performance information as it's too tiny and pointless..

Asic miners will blow away any current GPU when mining BTC or really any SHA256 coin. The GekkoScience Compaq F is pretty powerful for being an USB stick however.... The reality is that it's extremly low power when compared to something like the Bitmain S19. On a personal note your 3090 would be best served mining ETH. The point is buy an Asic for mining BTC

Hashedbet, Sledge0001, thank you for your response. Bitmain S19 is expensive, so I decided to buy GekkoScience Compac FUSB.

Yes there was, with usb miners averaging about 3.6Th ish? i believe it was block #263 check it here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5237323.1900

Yes. That was me. A mini - rig with 9 GekkoScience Compac f's found a block here on CK's pool.

I don't think it's possible, but if the block hits at 2.148Gh / s, isn't it great? It looks interesting, so I'll try mining for a while.

Stupidest shit I ever heard in my life, but your call.. waste of time imo.. So let me help you out, a 3090 farming ETH will make 7-8$/day, then you use those 7-8$ earned mining ETH and rent out ASIC miners which you use to mine bitcoin solo. For 7-8$ daily you can have roughly 40-45TH hashrate on solo which roughly translates to 1 in 33k odds per day, compared to mining btc with that card at the odds of 1 in 620M.. Common sense and logic my friend... don't be so lazy and do some research and understand the stuff you are attempting.. might get better results in life..

OK. indeed. Sell the Geforce RTX3090 and use that money to rent it with a nice hash. Thank you for your guidance.

I tried to search and go through the thread as much as I can and can't find anything.. if I wanted to rent mining power could I use nicehash? when I try to validate the pool, everything looks good but I get the following error: Pool difficulty too low (provided=10000, minimum=500000)... Error thanks
