Any chance you will ever start a solo.bitcoinsv.ckpool so blocks are easier to find? Just wondering? Back on with solo.ckpool for now, seems like blocks are getting loose again. Thanks
My bat file with a TTBIT USB miner is: cgminer.exe -o stratum+tcp://solo.ckpool.org:3333 --gekko-2pac-freq 100 -u **********************.0 -p x I get no ACCEPTED Shares showing, only Best Shares? Is this right or should I be seeing accepted shares?
Here are some of my thoughts: Don't use the CHEAP CLONE stick, but buy the real GekkoScience usb stick miner. Newpac is the newest model at the moment. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5053711.0
Sounds like the twenty dollar TTBIT sticks I bought and just recently returned are not to good. I will maybe try the Newpac version. Thanks for your good advice.

Strange how XPD is spiking today with no active exchanges that I can see? Any ideas? How does this happen?
Do you think a V9 running on solo.ckpool non stop for a year could ever find a block?
What happens if I am on solo.ckpool and the miner goes down for any reason such as power or internet, is this like starting over or is it always just luck mining at any point?
it is possible for your v9 to hit a block on cksolo, but here are your odds
Chance per block: 1 in 11,744,125<--------------thats about every 10 mins you have that chance
Chance per day: 1 in 81,556<-----------------thats how many chances a day you put in
Time estimate: 223 years <------------you should hit a block by then
Now if you ever restart your miner or lose power or no internet, you aint losing out on much- as this pool only matters if you solve the big equation, "Nothing Else Matters"

New here with questions, sorry. Will --decode work outside of the V9? What version is needed? Do you have a link to a windows 10 already built version, I don't know how to compile yet? Is antpool solo the same as ckpool solo, all luck? Is a 15gh/s usb miner as lucky as the v9?
No, it won't even work with the V9 since they used a bastardised version of cgminer. You need the latest from the master cgminer git. https://github.com/ckolivas/cgminer No windows versions since google kept trying to flag all windows binaries as viruses. Antpool solo is I dunno what, ask them since it's nothing to do with this thread. A 15gh miner is as luck as 15gh. All miners are only as lucky as their hashrate; nothing more, nothing less.
Hello, When you refer to (All you need to confirm you are mining to your own address is to examine the coinbase and template sent to you over stratum), does this mean adding my address to the text box and seeing the resulting link? Also, I am mining with an Antminer V9, the Blocks Found Column and Best Shares show nothing? Any idea why? Thanks
No, you can use the master cgminer code in --decode mode and it will tell you exactly what you're mining. Antminers are notorious for buggy code at detecting best shares and blocks found, but there's a good chance blocks found is SUPPOSED to be zero for almost everyone since they're so rare to find.

Is there any point to any of this if your best share is only 45m? Seems like any usb miner up to 15TH will never find anything
I think the last block was a low power miner.
Remember that even 10PH miners are just made up of lots of regular sized mining hardware. It is ALWAYS small mining hardware that actually finds it, even if it's from a big farm.
