@adam3us i always look forward to these 200wma post. reaffirms the importance of looking long term and to ignore the short-term volatility of bitcoin.

[jed @jedpgp]

this feels like a good point to highlight where the disconnect can happen with lay people/plebs who are just starting in bitcoin eager to learn more. best difficulty is found in many UI’s when it comes to mining statistics to give us a metric of how close our small miners get in comparison to the network difficulty.

[jed @jedpgp]

@LukeDashjr @leo_haf @GrassFedBitcoin @RazeBannon got it. was just wondering if anyone found a way to see small solo miners stats like best difficulty pointed to umbrel datum. thanks though!

[jed @jedpgp]

@leo_haf @GrassFedBitcoin @LukeDashjr @RazeBannon thank you! anyway to display miner statistics like best difficulty achieved on datum app?

[jed @jedpgp]

@leo_haf @msbv123 @GrassFedBitcoin @LukeDashjr @RazeBannon possible on umbrel datum too or start9 only? would be awesome to be able to do both especially configuring smaller small home miners to run solo alongside bigger hashrate for pooled mining.

[jed @jedpgp]

@LukeDashjr @RazeBannon can DATUM on umbrel do pooled mining with ocean + solo mining for home mining simultaneously? that would be a game changer

@w_s_bitcoin hint for Cash App no fee no spread buys for less than $2k purchases:

1) toggle on “Auto Invest” DCA and put any amount - let’s say $200.
2) buy goes through no fee no spread
3) toggle off “Auto Invest”

enjoy 🥳

@ocean_blocks thanks for the info- anyway to get telegram alerts for new blocks found in the meantime?

[jed @jedpgp]

@w_s_bitcoin when umbrel ?

[jed @jedpgp]

@Public_Pool_BTC @SoloSatoshi was just having the extranonce2 error happen to me by pointing Braiins. thank you for this huge update.

[jed @jedpgp]

@ckpooldev @_PyBlock_ noticed a difference in latency already with significantly lesser spikes. thanks doc

[jed @jedpgp]

this is the way.

Ckpool rework for yyjson. Whilst ckpool is very low overhead and scalable due to being coded in multithreaded C, one of the largest overheads within the code is the json parsing library. Libjansson has been included since 2014 and it touches approximately 5,000 lines of code with ckpool.
Since that time a number of higher performance json libraries have come out, with yyjson proving to be the fastest - 10-100x faster depending on the workload. I've resisted reworking the code for a long time, but the benefits are substantial - not only would ckpool be much lower overhead and even more scalable, it would lead to much faster block template changs which are a critical performance measure in mining pools.
I've embarked upon a major rewrite of all the performance critical components of ckpool to use yyjson. It is unfortunately far from a drop-in replacement and has required some significant surgery. Some of the safer code has already been merged into the master branch on git, but the massive rewrite has been committed to a yyjson branch. I'm currently testing the existing code on testnet4, and will continue refining it further before eventually merging it into the master branch and deploying it on the solo ckpools. The solo ckpool currently would probably safely handle 10x its current load (which is 40,000 clients).
I don't know how much of a real world improvement it will work out to, but I'm hoping for good things. At the very least, faster block changes are always worth pursuing. Watch this space, as I'll be announcing when I'm deploying it on solo.
And no, this isn't a modification any existing AI has a hope in hell of vibe coding, so it's all done by hand. Current code:

power to the plebs 🥳

Another block for Public Pool

it's cool to see solo miners taking home the entire 3.15 BTC reward for a block constructed on their own Umbrel

[jed @jedpgp]

any possibility of Proto Home for solo mining?

@jack

[jed @jedpgp]

@robin_linus love to see it

[jed @jedpgp]

@michaelboegl amazing photos--what film camera were you using ?

[jed @jedpgp]

@YourFriendAndy @HayKing369 @Public_Pool_BTC Cool to know ngrok works with this tunneled to DATUM Gateway in solo mining mode. Any way to see highest difficulty achieved by each miner pointed to DATUM? Went under "Client" but doesn't really display the highest difficulty unfortunately.

[jed @jedpgp]

@MarcanoFilms if you switch to non-pooled mining, how would you point 1Ph/s of rented hashrate to your setup?
