[∞ YH] solo.ckpool.org 2% fee solo mining USA/DE 255 blocks solved!

[mylesrom]

recently pointed some of my older cards at this solo pool, figured it would be more fun than watching a 200W GPU make $00.02 a day. However I am not able to monitor my stats. I go to http://solo.ckpool.org/users/3L6o9aXs4fWtaUaFArYiXYG1TmVisDTDXM and I just get a 404.

Any help would be appreciated, id hate to think i made a mistake and haven't actually been mining for the last week.

Your mining with gpu cards?   those are not accepted on this pool.

With people asking for other ways to be notified of a block, since blocks are a very infrequent occurrence, I've decided to post them as tweets as well.

Nice one.... must be a regular soloist.... one of the richest BTC address I have seen so far.

Those are Eobot's address. I was quite confused when btc.com was showing the block being relayed by Eobot and not Solock. While checking on blockchain found out that the address is actually one of the Eobot's address.

Hi Mr. Kolivas

I have pointed an antminer S7 towards your pool, nice implementation you got there

Regarding Eobot, because i didn't get it
This particular Eobot address was/is hashing in this particular pool or it's a totally different than solo.ckpool.org ?

Hi Mr. Aegean Skipper,

the block was found on this pool. I saw it on that day at https://blockchain.info/de/pools?timespan=8days
And ist seems like they are mining here because if not there would be no statistic.
http://solo.ckpool.org/users/16GsNC3q6KgVXkUX7j7aPxSUdHrt1sN2yN

But I also have a question, maybe somebody else can help me with 

I am buying hashrate to mine here from time to time. I see it as a lottery. I think this pool is very trustful but how can i be sure not be be scammed? Not by this pool but from people selling hashrate and submitting fake shares. I heard things like this happening on a miningpool with xmr.
Can i really trust only the hashrate? 
We have no daily Rewards here, so thats why i am asking...

You can't fake hashrate if it shows up at the pool. However it is possible for rental hash to be withholding blocks meaning you can never find a block here - it is a limitation of rental hash that the rental service should be monitoring and responsible for, but they take NO responsibility on this. However over the years plenty of hashrate has found blocks with various rental services so probably good to stick with well known rentals.

I checked cgminer this afternoon and have a best share of 1e+003k... Is this normal? Most I have found was 55mill this number is beyond belief

Is there a forum for the ckpool.org pool?

I wouldn't recommend any to be honest, but others here can chime in with their experiences. I know that most rentals come from either nicehash or mining rig rentals.

There will be many things to celebrate tonight my 60 year's young and the successful mining of solo coin(s). Yee haw!
Which ultimately means acquiring more machines ... no teasing! :*

Hi i have rented a rig for the third time. But this time i have some Problems.
Seems like the miner does not like the Difficulty.  
I tried the de and US pool and also other Ports, but i only get a share diff of 4000 or 1000000 at this pool(s).
I also tried to set the difficulty manually with the Password: x --suggest-diff 100000
Seems not to work...
The Difficulty range for this rig is 31,432 - 189k. What can i do?
I am getting 0h/s here

Hello friends,

we are new to solo mining. We currently have 5 Antminer S9 connected. What do you think about our chances? Is it good idea ? Which period for a block should we expect? We have on average 60 TH.

Thanks and have fun.

IF there were no increases in difficulty, which is almost impossibly unlikely, then 60TH would take  2868.73 Days to mine one block.

However difficulty tends to increase by aprox 5-15% every 10 days or so, so in that case the likelyhood is never.

Of course you could get lucky and mine a block in the next second or so.......

That's the nature of luck and mining. More hashpower increases the probability but not the luck.

[Mikestang]

Which period for a block should we expect?

Unless you have a massive farm with multiple petahash running you should never expect to find a block.
