4 sats \ 8 replies \ @nikotsla 19 Apr \ parent \ on: The first Stratum V2 solo pool bitcoin_Mining AMA

This is important for the long term, maybe it's better to just start with the fee and use the "better tech" speech to attract miners.

128 sats \ 0 replies \ @nikotsla 11 Apr \ on: How legit is renting hash power? bitcoin AskSN bitcoin_beginners

I don't watch the video, but these are some general point to look at:

  • Rent hash with fiat :S to convert to solid money could be a path, but you will be KYC for sure.
  • Rent hash with bitcoin :S I am pretty sure you will lose money, at leas 10%, unless you go solo mining
  • At the end of the day you are "trusting" that the person/company keeps their word
  • Shit happens, so you can't trust the "I promise you 10Ph/s for the next 6 months"

I see this as a way to shill some business, in this case the rent hash companies, the only valid point to use it could be to loose 10% or 15% of the capital you put in order to redirect the hashrate to your side, it's better than setup a large scale mining operation.

Congrats! if it's a public one, could you share your LN node?

It's unbelievable that we have the tools (BTC+LN) to literally remove fiat, liberate the humanity and waste time in scams.

38 sats \ 0 replies \ @nikotsla 21 Feb \ on: Apollo III — FutureBit bitcoin_Mining

If you are going to "start" from scratch, and don't have any idea of hardware/software config, the full version $1099 entry point with all ready to go, isn't expensive. In the future you could add more hashpower (bitaxe) and point to the node inside Apollo III.

Miner Only it's expensive.

"running a profitable LN node is probably extremely hard"

Indeed, in my point of view almost 90% of traffic is exchange related, no real human P2P business move the needle, so in that context:

  • Lot of capital! like... a lot! 1BTC is too little.
  • Clearnet
  • Good hardware, failover

I saw this many time in the wild:

  • 3k ppm (minimum)
  • Open/Close to LOOP
  • Open/Close any exchange

Done, you are running a profitable node at 10% (yield) and need one year to recover the hardware cost, the risk... big (force close/hadware failure/bugs).

I need a little more info about it to help:

  • It was always doing that?
  • What do you change?
  • The text is identical?
  • Do you change something directly in the db?
