To solo mine on Pi OS with your own Bitcoin Core node, compile ckpool from the source and configure it to point to your local node via RPC. It takes some persistence, but it’s doable.
Hey guys, here is my current set up:
- Raspberry pi 5 8gb with a 2tb nvme
- OS: Pi OS full desktop version
- Bitcoin Core fully synced
- A gamma 601 that is solo/lottery mining through ckpool
What I would like to do is to set up a solo mining pool on the Pi OS, so I can mine directly to my own node. I've tried setting up ckpool with no success, I couldn't find a working tutorial on Google. I read somewhere that p2pool.in can work with Pi OS, but unsure how legit it is...
Any suggestions or help would be much appreciated.
p.s. I know umbrelOS is the easy way out, since they have bitcoin core and public pool in their app store. I do want to learn how to do this on Pi OS though.
