Re: Solo mining on an Antminer U3

Is the hash rate that the pool shows you inaccurate, because my hashrate is apparently at 82.9 GHash/s and I haven't overclocked:
{"hashrate1m": "82.9G"

Now 2 minutes later it has dropped to 53.1:
{"hashrate1m": "53.1G"

If the pool (CKPool) hashrate is accurate, clearly the U3 is very unstable.

Solo mining on an Antminer U3

I decided to start solo mining on an Antminer U3! I am using CKPool to do it and I'm using my Raspberry Pi as a controller. This is my stats so far:
{"hashrate1m": "67.3G", "hashrate5m": "63.7G", "hashrate1hr": "58.9G", "hashrate1d": "9.64G", "hashrate7d": "1.53G", "lastupdate": 1449912061, "workers": 1, "shares": 219756, "bestshare": 514557.60289778293, "bestever": 514557}
It has been running for 4 hours and cgminer says the difficulty is 50.

If you want to watch my stats: http://solo.ckpool.org/users/1MEWxQE7nyX5rTsnQxr9NmFdCVdMZQ5fkz
And I see what people mean when they say the U3 is unstable. The hash rate is varying between 50 and 68 Ghash/s (according to CKPool)

Re: How did this address mine so many coins?

I found an address that was solving blocks every 10 - 15 mins.

How do they do this? It doesn't look like a pool becuase they've generated a lot of coins but not sent out that many. so is it a farm or something like that?
If this is a farm, is that normal for a farm?

Maybe I'm missing something but I can't see how it should definitely be mining.

Can't this address be associated with an exchange or a market?
On the address the transactions of 25 BTC to it say 'Newly Generated Coins' which means they have been earned by mining.

This is not what you would call every 10 - 15 minutes. Nothing special here, just some pool probably. I don't want to waste time investigating who the owner of this address is.
Oh ok. Thanks for the reply anyway
