@charliefoxtrot72 first things, how much your hashrate?
back then i only had 7KH/s,
and i made around 10$ on pool,

i personally already run it for solo 2 days and get nothing so its the last time i mining
after few reading forum and some search, you will come to conclusion that the hashrate mean alot.
more than that, your ratio hashrate towards total pool hashrate also will be counted.

so if you have like.... 10KH/s i think you can just joined small pool and get profit every week
but if you had less than that, solo mining will make nothing for you. afterall solo mining is good when you found the block and the pool make those effords higher since more people = more power.

something like that in nutshell

@UsualCat Right, I understand that I can go a long time without hitting a block. I accept that. I'm asking how do I actually set it up.

@charliefoxtrot72
you could try wownero, it's solo-mining only and you'll hit block faster there

@chillin dunno why you didn't even answer simple question
its sad if people who asked is ask about monero, then you out of the blue suggesting other coin than monero....
imagine if new guys come belive that was monero, to be wasting his time for it

thread title is:

How to Get Started With Solo Mining?

wownero is how to get started with solo mining since it's solo-mining only and way more accessible than monero to solo-mine
like, start with wownero, get a few blocks then try monero since it's pretty much the same, except for the commands that are slightly different for monero since dont need the secret spend key thing for it but just the public address

why are you doing an ai search while you could have done a forum search? ofc it's a different coin, it's a fork of monero:
https://monero.forum/thread/introducing-wownero-forum

why are you doing an ai search while you could have done a forum search?

videogamers would say instead of using the ai: "learn to play (L2P)"
forum users could say instead of using the ai: "learn to use forum"
:shrugs:

@chillin

and the section was monero......not wownero.... even your own arguments are against you

why are you doing an ai search while you could have done a forum search? ofc it's a different coin, it's a fork of monero:

welp if you want that type of argument.... why give wownero when people asking on monero section....
clanker seems give more straight forward answer instead you giving just image without even explaining something

which some of them even "myth"

imagine if people genuinely want to know about monero, how hard/easy its to setup solo mining
and instead get straight answer, you teleported them to other meme coin because argument like...

wownero is how to get started with solo mining since it's solo-mining only and way more accessible than monero to solo-mine

lol
