Can someone explain me what is the pool difficulty?
I understand what is the network difficulty, but the pool one got me off-guard.
From what I've read, this is what it means:
"Pool difficulty is how hard the job the pool gives you to finish in a time frame (set by pool)"
But I though the network difficulty defined the job for every miner (which is to pick a valid block).
What is a job then? I though that a job was basically the pool telling the miner: "here's a set of transactions, and here's your Nonce range [10000 to 99999], now check if you can hash below value X". Which I assume would have the same difficulty for every miner.
What am I missing here?
Network difficulty is the target that you have to find above in order to get a block.
Pool difficulty does not really matter in solo mining, it more matters when doing pooled mining to be able to track the stats and do calculations to show how many shares your miners have submitted...
