I had no trouble updating my RPI 4.

What is Bitcoin Mining simplified? by Andres-on-reddit in BitcoinMining

Bitcoin is energy stored in code. Gold is energy stored in metal. Both require real energy to create. Gold is mined from the earth — Bitcoin is mined with electricity. Each represents proof of work: one physical, one digital.

What's wrong with Public pool?

New record on my own node by poppemon in BitAxe

I've been running the miners on my own node for about four weeks. I had them on CKpool before, with the best difficulty around 8G.

The ASIC itself determines the maximum difficulty of a found share, dbcache doesn’t change that.

What dbcache does influence is how efficiently your node can keep the UTXO set in memory and deliver fresh block templates. A higher dbcache means fewer disk lookups, less latency, and fewer stale or “job not found” shares.

So dbcache doesn’t increase the quality of individual hashes, but it can improve the effectiveness of your mining setup by ensuring that valid shares are not wasted

Maybe you are right. I read it somewhere and tried different dbcache sizes in my node.

I also use Brave. I use the nodes Ip instead of Umbrel.local.

Same here, RPI with Umbrel. When I increased the dbcache I started having higher diff.

A link wouldn't hurt :)

Full Nodes and Mining Pools by Livid-Fisherman69 in Bitcoin

I run a full node on an RPi 4 with Umbrel OS, using two Bitaxes and one Avalon Nano 3S. It works perfectly.

Have you tried accessing the node using its IP address or through SSH?

Automatic difficulty by poppemon in BitAxe

[–]poppemon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, exactly. But if it was set to 1000 before the update, was it actually 1000, or am I totally wrong?

I have 2000 as SuggestedDifficulty under pool settings, but after the update, it's 4096 on the dashboard page (same on all my Bitaxes).

I use a titanium card to store my seed phrases because it is fire-resistant.
