[∞ YH] solo.ckpool.org 2% fee solo mining 283 blocks solved!

[chillfactr]

I've just finished paying fees for the pool server to run for another year. Given the number of blocks solved this year, I'd feel bad having the community provide funds to support its running. Let's see where we stand in a year's time again.

Nice 
if we go stale mate with finding blocks this year, we can easily start a "donate to the cause"  fund

The Ckpool server is very far from Spain?
He tells me that having the Pool server far away can increase the Ping, is mining from Spain recommended in Ckpool

Thank You for giving us the opportunity to solo mine!!

[decryptit]

I'm just curious does anyone know how much the cost to operate the server for the one year?

[philipma1957]

I'm just curious does anyone know how much the cost to operate the server for the one year?

used to be 1000 usd or so every six months but thats a while ago.

I did a funding drive maybe 2-3 years ago. we paid for 18-24 months worth.

[decryptit]

ah ok. Well, say the word, I'm sure the community will step in.

I'm just curious does anyone know how much the cost to operate the server for the one year?

I am not sure about "the" server but I have some of my own servers parked in a virginia data center and it's about $1720/month excluding the cost of the servers. That's for dual redundant power,  crossovers, 1gb dedicated pipe, the rack and other security items.  The servers are where you can spend some serious $.  My newest Dell server was $21,000 so that's where the costs get crazy.

AFAIK from previous info posted here -ck uses a dedicated server from https://us.ovhcloud.com/

It was a while ago now and the specs have obviously been updated since but I'm pretty sure its this one: https://us.ovhcloud.com/bare-metal/infra/infra-1-le/ with the default spec, so about $104 a month.

Hello there, quick questions about the ckpool stats.

I understand the obv hashrate params, but could someone explain me what do these params mean? I guess the bestshare is the closest one to "mine" a block? But I'm not pretty sure about bestshare vs bestever

Code:

{
 "lastshare": 1652874674,
 "shares": 11897642822,
 "bestshare": 414938470.4481227,
 "bestever": 8006330690,
 "worker": [
  {
   "lastshare": 1652874674,
   "shares": 487014704,
   "bestshare": 414938470.4481227,
   "bestever": 414938470
  }
 ]
}

About this one, not sure if this is what you're looking for or if its still valid, but here you can see diff stratums, there is one for europe users

What workers here stand for?It sometimes 8,10 or even more?
Also,is it pool related issue that my M21S often restarts with no errors?

[soul_trader]

Pls respond to questions if possible:

1-what workers stand for?Why it changes all the time?

2-How do we know we found a block?

3-Can ot be pool solo ck that makes my cgminer restart often?

Thanks in advance

These are the logs from miner!It says new block detected!!!

This line means a new block was found by the network, so it could be anyone mining to any pool that found this "new" block and your pool is letting you know that a new work for a new block is being generated and that you are up to date.

About this one, not sure if this is what you're looking for or if its still valid, but here you can see diff stratums, there is one for europe users

https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Solo.ckpool

Not valid anymore, Cksolo runs on one location now which is the U.S

The Ckpool server is very far from Spain?
He tells me that having the Pool server far away can increase the Ping, is mining from Spain recommended in Ckpool

EU to US is just a short ride, i am sure your ping is below 100ms (you can try it yourself), but I remember CK mentioned in the past that anything below 200ms is somehow fine.

how can you check?

I follow several CKpool miners who have already found a block and the Share it has after finding it is much higher than mine, even mining with 4 S19 the difference is very big, my best Share for example is this: bestever": 290965521514
and the best Share of a miner with only one S19 after the last block is this: bestshare": 8887532326869.654,
