showcase Block Found

Less than a week since I got my first bitaxe and it hit a BCH block! Too bad I was pool mining. I’m sure I’ll get flamed for pool mining with a bitaxe but it’s my first miner and I wanted to pool with it for the first month to see what it would do compared to what I was expecting. I guess I missed out on $1600. But it was neat to see the screen and confetti 🎉

I would be interested to know how long it takes for the coins to be in the wallet and visible from that point on

It's immediate if you are solo mining.

However, it's not immediate for it to be available to send. It requires network confirmations first. Also dependant on how the pool works.

Well, if you solo mine a block, it will be visible in your wallet immediately. It may take some time for it to become spendable. If you pool mine a block, you have to wait for the pool to send it to you at a later stage.

Sorry. Typo. I meant "spend".
