Re: [∞ YH] solo.ckpool.org 2% fee solo mining 300 blocks solved!

A block party is being held this weekend with an estimated up to 7EH where you can contribute your own hash or buy hash if anyone's interested:
https://upendo.rigly.io/

Interesting, but given the division of rewards its really not worth it for smaller rigs
You can buy hash directly with them to point instead of pointing your own miner.  Read through you can get a decent chunk of the reward

Hi all - I am able to point hash from MiningRigRentals to my FB Apollo but wasn't successful with NiceHash.  Any tips to get it to work?

Thank you

What does NiceHash say when you try to verify your pool? You likely need to increase the starting difficulty from 42 to 500,000 on CK Pool by editing the ckpool.conf on your Apollo.

Having trouble figuring out how to change the starting diff.  Can you point me to any directions for this?

It's been a while since I last tried but what you are saying makes sense.  I will figure out how to adjust the diff and give it a shot.  Thank you

I am using an apollo futurebit running its own node to solo mine to. I see that it uses ckpool. I can not find my stats when visiting the ckpool stats using my btc address. Is there a a way to view my stats on ckpool when using a futurebit apollo 2?

you view it on your apollo

over 1T shares submitted on this rental and we're still going, w/a best share of 6.89T, very nicely done Willi.. I know it's not a Block yet, but that's a good bang for our BTC (I don't recall many if any previous rentals hitting 1T shares..)

hopefully we can see 100T+ best share from this rental before it's done! LFG!!!

Yes!  This one wants to catch a block.  LFG!

Hello all, yes we can make some party’s but in the last time the interesting was very low.

We can do that and write here a short list.

If you cannot connect remotely again, try to access the miner, with a PC on the same network, as the Futurebit. If this fails, then try to ping it and last use a IP scanner to see all the devices, within your netwok.

Tried this.  When the issue happens it dissapears from the ip scanner as well.  Happened again for the 4th time last night.  Just turned it off at this point and emailed support.  Obviously I have a faulty unit so hopefully they will come through and give me a way to send it back for a fix or replacement since its only been in my home for around 30 dayshope it

When you get this straightened out let me / us know what the cause was please. Appreciate it. Cheers!

Will do.  They finally got back to me today and said it sounds like it's having an overheating issue and I'm shipping it back to them.  stinks I have to pay to ship it back but hopefully gets straightened out asap.  They said approx two weeks.


Yeah, I was thinking heat problems as well but since you were running ECO it didn't really add up (unless there's intermittent fan issues / malfunctions). Oh well, I hope it all works out for you. On a side note, I've still got an overdue standard unit just sitting at the FEDX hub in Memphis now 3 days late with no updates or explanations as to why or when I'll ever see it. Three cheers for PATIENCE!

Yeah, kind of annoying of course.  I ordered in April and received late July only to have to send it back after a short time.  Hopefully they rectify it right away and I can get to hashing.

Hi all - has anyone run into this issue? I've had my Apollo II for about a month.  Working fine for the first few weeks.  Over the last week and a half.  3 times the node and miner both stop.  I monitor it using remote desktop.  Unfortunately since I lose access to it when this happens I cannot reboot it from where I'm at.  When I get home I have to physically turn it off with the power switch and back on again to get it back up and running.  The first time it happened was about a week ago.  Then again yesterday and again today.  When running the miner is set to eco mode.  Any ideas?

Thank you!

The first thing in the "idea / guess" category would be heat - but since you're in ECO mode I doubt that's an issue unless there's an air flow problem for whatever reason. My second thought is related to a post from jstefanop back on 8/17/24 (Post #2398 & #2399) regarding a bad batch of power switches that are causing some issues on a small number of units. Perhaps that's the culprit? I also remember reading somewhere about loose cords not inserted 100% into the back of the units causing some grief. Outside of that, I'll go out on a crazy limb and say maybe check the seating on your memory cards underneath the full node unit (just a guess). Wish I had more to offer. Cheers!

Thank you very much for this!  I will look into each of these.  I've also emailed support, so will see what they say as well
