Hey does anyone know the best way to solo mine with an s1 ?

Just run ur qt wallet on server mode and maybe u need to setup coin config file such as

rpcallow:
rpcallowip:
rpcconnect:
rpcuser:
rpcpassword:
daemon:
server:
listen:

etc..

which coin You plan to mine solo?

off course bitcoin

Mining bitcoin solo with S1 does not make any sense. Look here https://bitcoinwisdom.com/bitcoin/difficulty and make calculations. To have chance to mine one block per month You would need more than 68 THs.

Read OP! or maybe i can quote for u..here w gooo!

Antminer S1 solo mining, how?
March 02, 2014, 05:52:55 PM

Hey guys,

So, i'm running 4Th (20pcs) Antminer S1's. I just like to try for 30 days to solo mine with them  Grin
How do i make the setup? I've read that you need to point your miners to 127.0.0.1, but does a standalone miner have this?

Can somebody explain me what's the best way to solo mine using a standalone (20x) device?

Thank you

Ok... with 4THs chances are much better... You will wait for a block only 17 months... As I have said. No sense in that.
But... if You are really interested in how to mine solo with S1, You have more possibilities. Use ckolivas pool, or, and it is pretty more interesting, maintain own server with bitcoind running, then just ssh into each S1 unit, edit /etc/init.d/cgminer script adding --btc-address option and do other staff, probably also replace cgminer binary and then debug and run it and pray
good luck
