Oddbean new post about login | logout When I win 3.125 #Bitcoin (minus fees), everyone who likes and boosts this post gets 1 million sats. To decentralizing the hashrate, one BitAxe at a time! 😎 https://image.nostr.build/7e46885aac58ff0695ad7d44957ea542268f13045816e0a73f346ed3f064276b.jpg
So close to picking up one myself haha
Do it! You learn a lot about mining in a small package.
I've been considering getting one to play with. Is the fan very noisy?
Nope! Super quiet.
Nice ... I'm in â›ï¸ðŸ§¡ðŸ«‚✨
An axe in every #plebs hand ✊🪓 #hashforce #cyberhornets #BTC
Should i go back to public pool or stack on ocean with incremental increasing hash?
And all the birds 🦅 and bees ðŸ #SWARMINGSINGULAIRSSCITESSEES🎟ï¸
Cause why the fuck not haha.
Ordered nerdminer already. Will arrive next week 😜
Plus fees. Not minus...
Pool fees probably. Solo CK takes 2% for instance.
i thought these were solo and similar to lotto ticket odds, although i love the decentralized hash rate component. do some folks point the has rate to a pool ?
The "pool" is providing the service of creating the block template for you. So it's not really a pool in that sense, just lowering the barrier to entry for solo miners. CKpool charges a small fee for this (has been around a long time), Public Pool is newer and does not charge a fee.
The point of a solo miner is that you're not in a pool.
That's not how it works in this case. Solo CK isn't a traditional pool where they pay out proportionally, you still get the block reward sent to a solo address. Solo CK just provides the service of managing a node and creating block templates as well as sending work to miners. Solo mining on your own node is cool but most solo miners aren't well equipt to do extensive testing on latency and uptime to make sure they are maximizing their reward potential. Whoever runs Solo CK takes 2% for this service and it goes to a separate address in the coinbase transaction. Check the pool history to see how this works.
You don't have to use a pool to mine. Sounds like solo ck just threw a bunch of fancy words to scam you out of 2% worth of your hashrate. There is nothing different about any of those things you mentioned. Any money firmware she's that for you. You don't need a pool to do any of that
There is no such thing as testing latency and uptime. Bandwidth for mining is extremely low. There is no maximizing rewards if you are solo mining. You only get one reward. The block reward if you get it.
From their site: "...running a full bitcoin node that requires both great storage and bandwidth..." That's just not true. If it were, Bitcoin wouldn't be decentralized. It's a flat out lie.
Noted, your input is appreciated. I have had some problems with my lightning node going down unexpectedly and since I don't check it daily I perceived value in a pool service.
If you're not online, a pool will not help you. Not for real solo mining at least. It could for more evenly dispersing your reward payout of you have some down time but it's not really even helping then so much as just lowering your average reward to make up for your down time. Not helping, just smoothing out your payouts. Which could be useful depending on the payout methodology. And I could be missing something. I'm not expert but I do run miners (S9s) and I just don't get it (ckpool). Just gives me a scammy gut feeling is all.
Update: had three hours of downtime while I was at work because my miner and my node stopped cooperating for some reason lmao There is a reason that Satoshi designed Bitcoin to work even if participants left and rejoined the network at irregular intervals. Managing uptime and latency is a full time job if you have real value on the line and cannot afford to be offline. I will check my logs and press on though
Yeah if you want someone to create block templates for you, consider Public Pool with zero fees.
Where did you order?
Waiting on the Gamma immersion miner 🧡👌 But this is on my list to get as soon as I can get my hands on one. @Solo Satoshi 😉
Can you immerse these in dielectric oil?
No idea! People have been going crazy with them though...lots of customization options.
Good luck!
I'll gamble & boost you. I hope you win the btc lottery. What's the chance though of you getting your note reposted/liked more than 312 times and winning a block? 😅 Just remember I'm before that number ;)
This blew up like I didn't believe! Been getting back into Nostr and lovin' it...looks like I'll get boosted enough that this 3.125 BTC will be FULLY DISTRIBUTED!
776.86 Gh/s auch bei mir gerade. Wo noch? "And all my hornets scream decentralize" nostr:note1mr0wagwxkkgzh09yk73casz9k6kp4dlgrnrncdwgye53g580776quzxyrx
My Bitaxe Hex arrives in a few weeks! Looking forward to setting it up.
So fun...been learning a lot with this thing, and I work for a mining company!
That's awesome! This will be my first dive into the world of mining. I'm hoping it's easy enough for a noob like me to figure it out. 😆
I'm with you on this one. https://m.primal.net/Kilc.jpg
Keep hashing!
Wishing you max hashrate ðŸ†
This will soon prove to have been a very bad idea...😂 nostr:nevent1qqsd3hhw58rttypthjjt0guwcpzmdtq6kl5pe3euxhyzv6g52rhl0dqpzpmhxue69uhkummnw3ezumt0d5hsygxnr53s8sx4t836m968hwjefp5mu3y68dgfu3p9hqwcnk495tl8fvpsgqqqqqqs34xwkk
Good luck.. ðŸ‘
I want a bitaxe, Getting one soon!!
Sick mate! 😎✌ðŸ»
Does anyone know how you can get these in South Africa?
Does this help? https://bitaxe.org/

I've never bought a lottery ticket with my own money, but this... this I want.
It's so fun to tinker around with and know it's hashing... Gets you interested in mining for sure!
What are the odds of this happening? I’m buying one as I’m fascinated by owning a little pocket miner but curious on probabilities of it being profitable
Very little - in the millions! With difficulty increasing and these only operating on the GH/s level, I believe the odds of winning a state lottery for more fiat are actually better. It's not profitable and never will be - about $12/year to run it and when you mine solo you get zero rewards unless you hit a block. I suppose you could link it to a pool and earn a penny a day or something like that!

I'm not saying it's impossible, I'm saying its implausible. I do however love the hopium. Good luck.
Good luck. I found a loophole though. I created a hard fork and now mine 3.125 #Bitcoinz ($BTZ) every single block. I’ll simply convert them to BTC in a week or so and I’m a zillionaire. 🤩
Generational wealth, I'm waiting for mine to arrive.
Get it my fellow #Nostrich
Go BitAxe! Go!
Let’s go!
Gogogo
Hey I might just buy one of those. Could be fun..!
You definitely should. So much fun!
Good luck mate!
I just have to respect your optimism!
Imagine getting it at $100k🤞😎🤙
Ser they are called zaps now
