Hi All,
I’ve set up a solo Stratum pool that mines directly to your address, no payout delay!
Reward for first block found (Update: first block has been mined)
I reward the first miner to find a block the double of it’s donation!
Meaning that if you donate 3% you’ll be rewarded 6% of the block reward, while if you donate 100% you’ll be rewarded the double of the block reward!
Disclaimer
This pool is not a professionally operated pool, so connect to it at your own risk.
Future plans
If the pool gets some traction, donation options will be added to trusted projects.
This means that you’ll be able to donate percentages from the block reward straight to the project addresses.
Hi - I’m new to peercoin and can’t believe the length of time we have to wait for coins to be available.
I am interested in running on this solo pool. But I it looks like there have not been any posts or blocks in a while. Is it still running? And how would I be able to see if my miners are working other than from the miner itself? Finally, I have 10 SHA256 miners. Would they all have to be combined on the same worker?
Thanks and sorry for the more noobish questions.
I would not mine peercoin with a GPU, it’s not worth it.
For solo mining, I’d advice to at least have 1TH/s to find blocks regularly or >100GH/s if you just want to get lucky every once in a while.
your miner software e.g. cgminer should provide you all the info you need. The best share difficulty gives you an idea how lucky you got already.
The pool will refuse connection if you gave it incorrect connection details, so if your miner is working, all should be fine.
This pool does not run a database to make it as stable and secure as possible. No data can be leaked because there is none. Or no coins can get stolen because they are sent directly to cold wallets. The idea is just to make solo mining possible without too much setup headaches and maximum security, not to provide extra features.
Thanks for that info. I am new to using cgminer, am I looking at the right thing? I am using antminer s5 to mine.
I just installed it and put in the info, and this was generated. I want to also see what hashrate my miner is doing.
