BC2/BCH Solo Mining
Welcome. This is a lightweight UI for a ckpool + bitcoinIId + bitcoind solo mining setup.
This solo-pool generates blocks directly to your BC2/BCH address. I.e., your address is put directly in the coinbase transaction (the block reward payout). So, if you mine a block, 50 BC2/3.125 BCH (+ transaction fees - pool fees) appear instantly at your address.
Currently, there is a 0% fee on BC2 block rewards. Starting on May 1st 2026, a fee of 0.5% will start to be charged. This is not for profit, but to cover at least some of the maintenance fees associated with running a server.
For the same reasons, a fee of 0.5% is being charged on BCH blocks.
Stratum endpoints
- BC2 low-diff
bc2-solo.org:3333(starting diff = 21K) - BC2 mid-diff
bc2-solo.org:4333(starting diff = 1M) - BC2 high-diff
bc2-solo.org:4334(starting diff = 21M) - BC2 very high-diff
bc2-solo.org:5335(starting diff = 120M) - BCH custom diff
bc2-solo.org:7337(set starting difficulty withd=...as password)
Mining username: your BC2/BCH address (e.g. bc1qf5fd5f4w4zcmn3dl7ywzwtdxta9jxvat46w6eu or qz3trzmjn62st9vtkewv9kk224nmleldhcc4wr58d4). Password: whatever floats your boat (often x) for BC2, and your desired starting difficulty for BCH (as d=DIFF).
Add new workers (for the same address) by appending a .TEXT after the address (TEXT can be anything, but is typically workerN, e.g. bc1qf5fd5f4w4zcmn3dl7ywzwtdxta9jxvat46w6eu.worker1).
ckpool utilises a vardiff algorithm (variable difficulty), so the difficulty for each user/worker will be adjusted over time to reach a target of one share every 5-10 seconds.
Please do not mine BC2 and BCH with the same address, or you risk not being able to view your stats for one of these.
