After some confusions, tinkering and testing, I've noticed that when I point a bitaxe from my job site to ocean, the shares come in slow and roughly every ten minutes.
When I point the miner I've got at my house to my node with Datum, to their pool, my shares and hashrate are registering regularly every 60 seconds.
Think I might still stick to the solo mining in the end but... Interesting to me at least.
Am I a miner if I'm just it pushing it all into solo hashrate? One to heat my bedroom, pointed to my own node and self hosted "pool", and two basically stealing electricity from work for desk gadgets.
🤔
I run a node implementation.
I connect my electrum server to my wallets that allow it.
I verify my own transactions.
I have a few lightning channels.
I run my own instance of MY mempool.
I've conjoined, layers swapped and customized my own miniscule UTXO after collecting enough on lightning after $5,10,21 purchases.
For severalish years.
You ain't shaking me out wall street. I won't even capitalize your name you cunts.
I haven't used any of the "products" "features" or offered any "collateral".
I have used exchanges.
All of this means nothing to anyone but me.
This was a note.
Went to order a couple backup/replacement power supplies for my bitaxes from @Solosatoshi.com 🇺🇸 ... Threw a little hash in there to make it worth the purchase with a nano 3s because I've spent my whole life not buying lottery tickets so fuck it.
