Tonight, a few starry-eyed plebs and I pulled together 300PH at the last minute to take a shot at solo BTC block. Will tonight finally be the night? Feeling good about this one.

A warehouse full of miners doesn’t find a Bitcoin block. Instead, one single ASIC chip defies seemingly impossible odds and produces the golden hash. The coolest thing is, the improbable isn’t an anomaly in Bitcoin, it’s the rhythm of the network. Every ten minutes another miracle. All day, every day. …”sir this is a Wendy’s”

ASIC miners are incredibly fascinating; the Bitcoin kind, the shitcoin kind, large, and small. You can’t just have one, and it would be nice to have them all.

Replying to @PeterSchiff
You literally have no shame. The price is $60k and you have been calling for its death since $764… It's up 78x since your call. Truly shameless!

Officially solo mining to KarpuzPool, a modified fork of @Public_Pool_BTC. Beyond wanting to see “KarpuzPool” under a block when I finally hit one, I wanted to experiment with the UI/UX and add a few extra data points while leaving the [proven] core functionality unchanged. Public Pool is cool. Shoutout to Ben (the creator of Public Pool and many others things) for open sourcing it so anyone can make their own version of KarpuzPool of they want to. 🍉⛏️

I’m buying more miners because I believe in Bitcoin. I’ll buy them at a discount from those who don’t. Cutting your losses on a Sealminer or 21XP? Send me a DM!

I recently had thousands of dollars worth of BTC transactions stalled on @Coinbase with no explanation. Today I learned my account is under investigation due to my Bitcoin activity. Much of which, involves buying and reselling Bitcoin miners which means regularly purchasing and transferring large quantities of BTC. So far I’ve gone through multiple rounds of facial recognition, submitted IDs, passports, financial documents, and a written statement of intent explaining my Bitcoin usage. My account remains frozen. How are others using Bitcoin for perfectly legal, non-criminal purposes? Are you all dealing with the same KYC song and dance to move BTC? There has to be a better way, I just don’t know what it is.

@Public_Pool_BTC Respect for what you built. Public Pool filled a real gap when good solo pool options were limited, and running it yourself on repurposed hardware shows the kind of commitment the community appreciates. Solo mining has grown since then. With tens of thousands of Bitaxe devices (and similar miners such as NerdQAxe ) now relying on AxeOS or similar firmware defaults, the choice of primary pool has more impact than it used to. Public Pool’s single-server setup in one location worked for its era, but it was never designed for miners spread across the world. A single point of presence means higher latency for many users and creates an obvious availability risk. Public Pool has recorded 19 outage events totaling more than 17 hours of downtime in 2026 alone. The default pool that ships with AxeOS/NerdQAxe and serves many thousands of new miners deserves more than running on ewaste out of one location. AtlasPool was built specifically to address these limitations at global scale. It operates one full instance (including both ckpool and a Bitcoin node) at each of nine locations across six continents. BGP anycast on the solo.atlaspool.io hostname automatically directs each miner to the closest healthy location. This design delivers consistently low latency and has maintained 100% uptime since launch through geographic distribution and automatic failover. On the fee: AtlasPool charges 1.5% only on blocks found. This fee does not cover my operating costs. I am not running AtlasPool to generate profit. The fee simply helps offset the expense of maintaining a globally distributed, redundant infrastructure. My goal is to make the best possible solo mining pool available to the community, not to monetize it. Running your own node and stratum server is one approach, and we support miners who want to go that route. At the same time, a large part of the solo mining community wants a dependable hosted option that delivers strong performance and reliability without requiring them to operate their own infrastructure. AtlasPool was built for those users. We make it easy to connect and also support people who prefer to self-host. The community has outgrown what a single-server pool can reliably deliver at worldwide scale. With more miners depending on defaults in tools like AxeOS, it makes sense to evaluate whether the current default still serves users best, or whether a purpose-built global option would be a better fit for most people. I think AtlasPool represents that next step. I would encourage the AxeOS dev team and anyone choosing a primary pool to take a look at what we have built: atlaspool.io/ We are all trying to strengthen solo mining. I am open to feedback and happy to discuss how we can improve the experience for Bitaxe/NerdQAxe miners together. cc: @osmu_global @wantclue @skot9000 @Pmaxsd

Incredible to see all these solo services get more and more robust. Good thing.👏 web.public-pool.io runs on server e-waste in my basement. The best pool is the one you run yourself. It has the lowest latency and highest uptime. You get to choose your templates. Nobody can stop your payouts. I built public-pool for you, not for me. What's stopping you from running your own stratum server?
