I there anyway to add solo ming support back into the miner...
I get the following error when trying to solo mine small alt coins:
Empty data received in JSON-RPC call
get_work failed, retry after 30 seconds
unknown option -- coinbase-addr=

SET UP YOUR OWN POOL--
It is not too hard. I just set up an old NOMP-style pool on LOCALHOST. The code is deprecated, so opening it to the public may be risky. I bought a Moonlander 2 scrypt ASIC, and am mining with it as if it were an electronic lottery ticket. The Moonlander is like a thumb-drive sized ASIC, but faster than my 6x 750ti rig running CUDAminer back in the day (2014). It is running at about 4MH/s scrypt algorithm, and less than 10W.
There are several how-to pages for NOMP-style pools on the web. A couple for YIIMP-style pools, too. Many of them have typos and poor English. I think I will put my own "How-To" together and post it. I have some rig maintenance to take care of, though. As soon as I get a round 2it... --scryptr
@scryptr
If you put your own "How-To" together and post it.. plz let me know. I want to do the same. Mining BTC with that thumbdrive.
IT JUST MOVED UP ON MY PRIORITY LIST--
But I am mining scrypt algo. BitCoin (sha256) may even be easier, and not require a pool. Let me get things sorted out. I was really surprised that the old pool set up and worked with so little fuss. Right now, I am trying to merge-mine with it.
Hey, there are scrypt pools that merge mine and pay more than 100% LTC because they merge-mine so many alt-coins using scrypt algo. NO FEE AT ALL! The alts pay for the pool and profits to the owners/operators. The miners get some, too, but just as LTC.
GekkoScience has the BTC thumbdrive miner. There are clones from China, too. Chat at ya later... --scryptr
You mean like this list below scryptr?
