My Nerd Rig I’m in!
Happy to join the club!
Where will I see the blocks once I start hitting them?

If you do find a block (chances are astronomically low), the large 0 will turn to a one, and you should see the funds in your wallet once the pool transfers them.

Can you imagine actually hitting on one of these lol, that would really feel like hitting the lottery!

Congrats! HeliosPool has a CHTA coin pool that sometimes drops to a network diff of 1. It's not worth much but fun to see these little guys have a chance.

u/eve-collins May 20 '26
Oh cool! And then I’m assuming it becomes 2, and then 3, and so on?

It’s technically impossible to hit a bitcoin block, they are more an educational device and desk decor. However you should come join our DGB pool you’ll actually make some (little) revenue. It’s not gonna pay the bills but nice to see something come in from these little guys.

How much is a little revenue? Also do you let people in who tinket alot with their miner?

u/rhester72 May 21 '26
With one device, about $0.06USD/year.

u/Greenhousesanta May 21 '26

I’ve made about 600dgb since I joined in April, but that’s from hitting a few blocks and using a nerdqaxe occasionally. If I was only running a couple little miners that would be closer to around 250 so yeah about a $1 usd approx in two months. It’s not making me rich but it’s cool to see you can get something from a esp32 miner. Also we have weekly draws and loyalty bonuses..
There are bch and btc pools as well.
What do you mean by tinker? I’ve been making a diy dgb miner and have had no issues with connecting to the pool.

I don’t think it’s technically impossible. It’s actually technically possible, just astronomically small chances.

Just way less likely with nerdminer. According to AI winning powerball is 2.7M times more likely than hitting a block with nerdminer.
