Cool

My 12 NewPaks running at 300Mhz on 2 GS hubs just registered Best Share of 642M here on Solo

Previous Best Share was 600M with an S9 rental

Still far away but getting closer

Hi there,

I'm trying to connect a S9 to your pool.

But everything I tryed out, I'm getting status "Dead" and the username is not know on your server.

Does it take a several amount of time?




- sorry if this is already covered somewhere, but I could not find this topic in the thread

Are you using a Bitcoin address as your username?

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.

if you have to ask that question, then you don't know about lady luck.   Finding a block here on cksolo is purely luck.   
if stats on app are correct  there are 1490 individuals mining here on solo pool, with about 2368 peices of hardware.
only luck will have 1 of those machines solve the DIFF, no matter how big or small.

My first ever solo block here at ckpool a few years ago when a block gets you 25 coins.

I was doing some cleanup on 5 x S7 (around 19TH) in my garage, midway a Fedex guy came over to send some packages so I had delay power shutdown...

When I came back to my workstation, I saw -ck post with my BTC address..... if the Fedex guy didnt ring that doorbell ...... talk about luck.

My only 2 solo blocks here were with 20T rentals (about 3 years ago).  Man, I wish I would have held on to that 50BTC!!!

Something i always wondering is " what port do you guys think is better 10k or 1M" and why?
Forcing the gear to send just shares over 1M lost the chances of some 10k share hitting the block?
Or those 10k shares are just statisticals?

Since you need a share well over 1 billion  I bolded the correct answer.


6,353,030,562,984  is how big you need.

So...anyone with even a 13.5th S9 has a chance at getting a block! In regards to the diff for 10k or 1M, I didn't clearly understand...does that mean 1M diff port is better than the standard port? Please clarify! Thanks.

It does not really Matter.
10k is starting diff, it goes higher or lower depending on your device and connection.
1M is the diff for rentals like nicehash but you also can run your s9 on the 1M port.
Luck will be the same. Always. Luck is proportional to hashrate.

Just imagine a connection that sends packages of 10k or 1M.
So you have 100x10k or 1x1M packages. Which connection is faster?

[bitblocks9]

Gotcha! Thanks

think of a strainer  that lets in anything bigger then a 10k wide piece of food 

think of a strainer that lest in anything bigger the a 1m wide piece of food.


both will let in  a 6.35 trillion piece of food  which is the winning size.

the 10k does let in a lot of losers  from 10k to 1m

the 1m does not let in any losers from 10k to 1m

from you end a guy trying to toss in a 6.35 trillion size of food either filter affects you

on the pools end the sever has more work on the 10k size  since a lot of numbers come in from 10k to 1 million.

if ck pool accepted as size shares from 1 to infinity the server does more work.

I would argue a 250k size share for an s9  helps to lesson work for ck's servers
A 1000k or 1m size may be bigger then needed

but if ck has a good server  from your viewpoint 10k 50k 100k 250k 500k or 1m don't mean much  to him or you

since this pool has hit lots of blocks I think his server is fine  with 10k to 1m

[bitblocks9]

Thanks for the education! I'm currently running an S9 on 1M diff. Just gonna leave it there and let it ride.
