Can you EARN more KASPA mining THIS WAY!? IceRiver KS0 Pro

In today's video we discuss CAN YOU EARN MORE KASPA MINING THIS WAY!? 2 weeks ago we kicked off a test, putting two IceRiver KS0 Pros up against eachother to see which one earns MORE KASPA. The KS0 Pro Solo Mining or the KS0 Pro Pool Mining. In this video we discuss the results, to hopefully provide fellow Crypto Miners some insight into which method of Mining IS BEST for make the MOST cryptocurrency. Enjoy today's video on one of the BEST MINERS FOR HOME CRYPTO MINERS, the IceRiver KS0 Pro Kaspa Miner!

Do you think KASPA is Done or do you think with the Potiental US Bitcoin ETF Approval, KASPA will break it's All Time High of $0.152699?

[@noodles7157]

What do you mean by is Kaspa done? Are you saying it'll never go past that price? Are you asking if it's a dead project? Are you saying it'll never be profitable to mine again? What are you asking? Bc Kaspa isn't dead, it's constantly being developed still. Miner manufacturers have pumped billions of dollars worth of machines out. It's got more coverage than most other crypto projects combined. It's got more going for it than just about everything else aside from maybe a couple layer 1 SC platforms and bitcoin. So I guess what I'm saying is, no. By any metric, Kaspa is not done.

[@rehtric6537]

I think he was going for asking an open ended question to create a forum for ideas to be exchanged below. I doubt anyone believes this project is “done.”

[@itsjordo]

​@@noodles7157 That was a hypothetical question.

Thanks for doing this comparison and agreeing to give it more time! Looking forward to the interesting longer term results!

[@mancavecrypto7750]

Nice test, boss. Will try solo when my KS0 makes almost nothing, so likely this spring. Until then leaving those on a pool. Good luck, yall.

[@flake6265]

Really good video!🔥 Thankyou I agree solo mining ,your only loosing a few kaspa and if you get that jackpot you’d just make it back and more anyways so why not .

[@Killer65malibuGaming]

I started 4 days ago no luck , going to hang in here for a bit longer

[@seanh668]

Under wallet/worker at the end of your wallet when you name the worker can you use / instead of the period does it matter?

[@Petah_C]

Thanks for this! Imma do this with two ks0 ultras

[@TheHobbyistMiner]

Glad to help!

[@popstream4972]

Please put out a video how to assemble your kso pro for the 340 overclock..

[@arsitama]

I'm looking forward on follow up result on solo mining after 2 months. 🙂

[@rihaangangat6648]

Do you have any recommendations on keeping track of rewards from mining KAS and filing them for taxes? I use Herominers as well. Thanks

[@sunnykgaming2541]

thanks for this video may purchase a ks0 pro

[@TheHobbyistMiner]

Heck yeah, enjoy

[@vallo1987]

Hey thanks for this test, how is it going after 4 months?

[@CDRBAZ-Miner]

Hey man, great results for you. I didn't have that luck as my ks0 pro has not hit a block and been running 12 days so far and it's on herominers also. Might look at that over clocking to increase my odds. Not sure if $230 will be worth is for software and power brick, price is in AUD.

[@ronwatkins5775]

Has anyone put up a video on setting up a node so you can avoid the "pool fee" for both solo and pool mining?

[@yanlisito]

so i have a question so i overclock my ks0 and my ks pro like you did but im not sure if that will help my odds on solo or not right now i have them on solo but im not sure if because it has more gh now is better in pool or it does help solo because it has more gh 280 to be exact. ? Please give me your opinion if gh actually help hit a block.

[@TheTravelersTravels]

I have 2 KS0s on pool, one, on solo. best of both worlds...

[@ankuragarwal8196]

What I think if you have one ks pro, pool mining is better than solo, but if you have like say 3-5- or like 10 ks pro ..then solo mining could be better in current difficulty rate..what do you think?

[@linuslundgren5202]

I really like your videos! Im sorry im really noob maybe a dumb q. Can i Pool mining on just One Kaspa Pro or just solo mining?😄😄

[@minutemanprep]

How do you sell your kaspa in USA? I cannot figure that out

[@sensequest]

I will stay pool i appreciate the predictability

[@andrewpalya8956]

I've had mine on solo for 10 days and have yet to hit a block. Committed to it now, so I'll see what happens!

[@amplifiergamingBTC]

lovely video

[@sensequest]

nice thanks

[@alvydasjokubauskas2587]

I would drill those holes myself instead of 3d printing them, but you can do both ways in the end, I just hate wasting good material.

[@eustakioo6271]

I have done everything like you, I get the hashrate and the shares only advance, I have already reached 8166, but after 10 hours and I don't get anything in pending balance. It is normal??

[@coinology2022]

I have been doing both and it is way too close to call on Kaspa pool

[@alvydasjokubauskas2587]

If your kaspa miner is constantly have issues like restarts, or you have power outage you do pool minning. If you can run non stop 24/30 without issues, than solo mining is the way, but you need your node setup, to get faster ping. Latter I believe kaspa will become lottery machines, because it will be not profitable to mine other way. Or hopefully they upgrade firmware and you can mine other coins besides kaspa.

[@dronesiviews]

Great video! How about an instructional video for setting up a 2nd KS0 Pro so you are mining with two instead of just one for us newbies? I've looked and can't find a video on this specific task. Thanks.

[@TheHobbyistMiner]

Good Question. There is no difference you set it up the same as your first one. Even to the same wallet address. You just name the worker a different name. kzbin.info/www/bejne/m3-UfIillrJjgrc

[@nielshellings8877]

Difficulty is only going to go higher so not sure if solo will be better

[@fullyelectric]

THM the issue with solo mining is .. its 100% all personal luck, i had 4 of my KS0’s on solo for 5 weeks and 3 of them hit blocks the first week, week 2 one hit a block week 3 two hit a block week 4 no block at all, and week 5 i ended it 2 hit a block, its just too random even for one person running 4 KS0’s on solo looking at the ones that hit more blocks than the other that miner would be a win on solo and the others a fail, solo mining is something you do for fun knowing you mined that block, but if you are into earning consistent income pool is the only way.

[@rehtric6537]

There is a lot more to effectively understanding and profiting from solo mining than just throwing your ASICS on a pool and hoping to get lucky. Understanding difficulty trends and Hashrate totals can help you pinpoint times to turn to solo mining and effectively turn more of a profit than you would pool mining. Some circumstances do have to be met that in turn require luck, but if you take a closer look and dyor, solo mining can be extremely lucrative if you know what to look for.

[@redlion6505]

​@@rehtric6537 Do you have a good video for that?

[@fullyelectric]

@@rehtric6537 all good point .. Over the years the best time i have seeing to solo is when the hashrate is low, i was one of the first in the US to get the KSO and solo with it running local solo Kas server, and i was hitting 6-7 blocks per day on avg., KS0 was earning only 720 KAS per day back then pool mining and solo was 1100-1200, the network was only 850 TH or so, now its 130+PH and you will not even hit one block per day, at this point its all personal luck, the higher the hashrate thus higher the difficulty as they both track with each other for this coin with quick adjustments the harder it gets to solve that block, its now all personal luck not guaranteed.

[@RobbyP1969]

From a class in statistics in college, I can assure you it is never luck..... over a long period of time. If you roll 2 six sided dice once you have 36 combinations, and a one in 6 chance of getting a 7. Not so good. Roll 2 million six sided dice, divide that by 2, add up the total and divide by a million (the average of rolling 2 dice a million times), gauran-damn-tee you that number will be between 6.9 and 7.1. Vegas makes billions knowing this.... But most of us don't have a couple hundred miners, or can't wait years to have it average out. Pool mining is more predictable. Solo mining is more profitable (by a small amount) if you can wait the time or have the sufficient number of miners.

[@rehtric6537]

@@RobbyP1969 I’m not sure the point is arguing profitability over a long period of time. Certain conditions that can be replicated can make one more profitable over the under (Ex living next door to pool server, owning a large farm, etc). But there are some conditions in the ecosystem that do exist that lead to better profit short term for solo mining. I will volunteer an example attesting to this. Summer of ‘23, I noticed solo difficulty and Hashrate of ergo were significantly lower. Put my tiny farm (9 gpus) onto solo mining ergo, and cashed out 4 blocks in the span of 2 weeks and made 200$ usd at the time. Was I lucky, absolutely, but I timed this switch based on existing conditions and made the most of it. Compare possible pool profits and I would have made closer to 20$ in that same time frame. This was a bit before the ergo blockchain greatly slowed down, but the example is still useful to justify my point above.

[@kcxfiles16]

Do you think the cooling grills create that much efficiency vs leaving side panels off?

[@TheHobbyistMiner]

I think leaving them off is best. However I have little hands in my house aka Kids. So id rather have something there, I find the Cooling Grills are the better solution. Honestly the way these units should have been made.

[@skullcrunnch3r153]

I've got 10+ KS0's stick to pool mining unless you feeling risky.

[@FreeStateCrypto]

In the same 2 weeks I got 1800 on unmineable. Uses more power but if you want coin it’s far better. Also don’t have anymore hardware costs or wait times to get hardware.

[@FreeStateCrypto]

Oh and I used your code so you got paid too.

[@francorojas6311]

Nice video. What do you think is better now…mine kaspa or btc with nicehash?

[@TheHobbyistMiner]

I am still stacking Kaspa and my Bitcoin Miners are on Nicehash

[@jokerminer1]

Soloing Kaspa sucked for me setup a node and mined to that went 15 days no block.

[@BlessedNoob]

At this point with 145Ph id just stick to pool and guarantee Kaspa. Less and less yield everyday. Rather 100% chance I get some rather than hope and potentially go week+ without anything

[@Motivator3535]

Give a update on this … it’s march now

[@LiveQuiet]

Please help me! I updated the firmware on my Ks0 Pro and my 5 mins hashrate immediately went to 0 and hasn't come back even after a factory reset! What do I do?

What Firmware?

[@DUNCEATRON5000]

Try another 2 weeks and let’s see !

[@gdouttuner]

Can you run 2 ks0 pro on solo mining and going into one wallet?

[@TheHobbyistMiner]

Yep

[@gdouttuner]

So I have 2 ks0 pro running on solo mining going into 1 wallet and I’m averaging 13-15 Kaspa per day. Is that about average per day? It seems like that’s really low.

[@Steamy_Dumpling]

Is it worth investing into a Kaspa miner rn?

[@mihael5206]

No, to late.

[@NerdThingsAndMore]

Or you may not hit any blocks for a while too 😉

[@welissonsantos5502]

I bought a ks0 6 weeks ago, on the first day it mined 26 kas and has been mining less each day, today it is only mining 8 per day. I'm very unhappy and don't know why it's getting smaller every day.

[@justsavvysnipes]

You're mining less because network hashrate has gone up. 6 weeks ago it was at 80 ph/s now its at 130 ph/s the higher the hashrate, the less coins you mine it has nothing to do with your miner its the difficulty of the network going up. Use whattomine and enter in your numbers it does a good job at showing profit decrease with network hashrate increase

[@donnyvermillion9207]

The reason for that is that more and more miners are coming online. I wouldn’t be surprised if that keeps get lower as well

In this video you show kso pro with standart 200Gh? But you update kso pro to 280gh in other video. Why you not show results for this test with 280gh update?

[@TheHobbyistMiner]

As mentioned in the video, I know not everyone can afford the OC upgrade. So I set both back to factory for my test.

[@tataurus-zm6xk]

@@TheHobbyistMiner ok. but you can do new test with upgraded version. i think its interesting content for peoples

[@hongk0ngfu3y]

ks3 is worth solo mining due to the hashrate % of hitting a block. the ks0 pro due to its limited hash rate slashes the %, its only gonna get worse from here.
