'''solo.ckpool.org''' is a solo mining pool implementation without the need to setup a local bitcoind.

solo.ckpool was started on the 31. August 2014 <ref>[https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=763510.msg8604106#msg8604106 (∞ YH) solo.ckpool.org 0.5% fee anonymous solo bitcoin and free testnet mining!]</ref>. For developers there is also a testnet implementation available.

Pool code created and operated by Con Kolivas, creator of [[cgminer]] and [[ckpool]].

== Servers to use ==
* [[Stratum]] - Use for ALL stratum capable Bitcoin mining software
stratum+tcp://solo.ckpool.org:3333
stratum+tcp://solo.ckpool.org:443

Miners closer to Europe please use one of:
stratum+tcp://de.ckpool.org:3333
stratum+tcp://de.ckpool.org:443

If you use an incompatible rental service that refuses to work on port 3333 try the following:
stratum+tcp://solo.ckpool.org:3334

If you have an asicminer tube/prisma, you can use a custom port 3335 (only accepts usernames without worker extensions) eg:
stratum+tcp://solo.ckpool.org:3335

Set your username to your btcaddress with any or even no worker extension, and any password.

* [[Testnet]]
stratum+tcp://testnet.ckpool.org:3333
Note this is mining worthless testnet coins only! Also, you must be using a testnet bitcoin address on this edition.

==Reward distribution==

* If you find a block, 99% of the 12.5 BTC + transaction fees get generated directly at your bitcoin address.
* 1% goes to the operator to operate the pool and contribute to further ckpool code development.

For testnet:
* If you find a block, 100% of the testnet coins + transaction fees get generated directly at your bitcoin address.

==Extra features==

* No overheads of running a full bitcoin node
* Connected to high speed low latency bitcoin nodes for rapid block change notification and propagation.
* No transaction-free blocks due to the ultra-scaleable code which has miners on both new blocks and transactions concurrently.
* No registration required, no payment schemes, no pool operator wallets
* The miner remains anonymous apart from his BTC address.

==How to run miners ==

'''CGMiner [https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=28402.0 Forum]'''<br />

cgminer -o stratum+tcp://solo.ckpool.org:3333 -u 1YOUROWNBITCOINADDRESS.0 -p x
If you enter an invalid address you will be rejected.
