Is there any point to any of this if your best share is only 45m? Seems like any usb miner up to 15TH will never find anything
I think the last block was a low power miner. Remember that even 10PH miners are just made up of lots of regular sized mining hardware. It is ALWAYS small mining hardware that actually finds it, even if it's from a big farm. Hello, When you refer to (All you need to confirm you are mining to your own address is to examine the coinbase and template sent to you over stratum), does this mean adding my address to the text box and seeing the resulting link? Also, I am mining with an Antminer V9, the Blocks Found Column and Best Shares show nothing? Any idea why? Thanks

No, you can use the master cgminer code in --decode mode and it will tell you exactly what you're mining. Antminers are notorious for buggy code at detecting best shares and blocks found, but there's a good chance blocks found is SUPPOSED to be zero for almost everyone since they're so rare to find.

New here with questions, sorry. Will --decode work outside of the V9? What version is needed? Do you have a link to a windows 10 already built version, I don't know how to compile yet? Is antpool solo the same as ckpool solo, all luck? Is a 15gh/s usb miner as lucky as the v9?

No, it won't even work with the V9 since they used a bastardised version of cgminer. You need the latest from the master cgminer git. https://github.com/ckolivas/cgminerNo windows versions since google kept trying to flag all windows binaries as viruses. Antpool solo is I dunno what, ask them since it's nothing to do with this thread. A 15gh miner is as luck as 15gh. All miners are only as lucky as their hashrate; nothing more, nothing less.

I had this going earlier, does it look right? http://solo.ckpool.org/users/

Thanks, at least I know it's working right. Is cryptomining-blog.com safe for downloads?

Dude, do NOT download any software from random blogs but ALWAYS download from the official site / github repo or whatever is used.

- Do you think a V9 running on solo.ckpool non stop for a year could ever find a block?
- What happens if I am on solo.ckpool and the miner goes down for any reason such as power or internet, is this like starting over or is it always just luck mining at any point?

it is possible for your v9 to hit a block on cksolo, but here are your odds Chance per block: 1 in 11,744,125<--------------thats about every 10 mins you have that chance  Chance per day: 1 in 81,556<-----------------thats how many chances a day you put in  Time estimate: 223 years <------------you should hit a block by then  Now if you ever restart your miner or lose power or no internet, you aint losing out on much- as this pool only matters if you solve the big equation, "Nothing Else Matters"

Just one V9
the more Hash Rate, the better the odds

Just a note I mined with V9's had the same issue buggy as hell no best share value shown had big long drawn email battle with bitmain about the miners power of two issue they dismissed it. None of the firmware they have released for the v9 works well it's what you would call fubar.
