Mining first block on Hive > losing virginity. Big life moment.
Hah it is quite the milestone moment.
Congrats dude! I'm going to have to go check my witness list 💥
Thanks! It's been a long time coming but glad to be a witness now.
Lol I think I sent you the DM like a minute or two after or before you sent this.
Thank you @solominer ....this is marvellous news!
Congratulations!
thank you
Congrats and thanks for witnessing on Hive!
Much appreciated, and glad to be part of the group of block producers now.
Good job on HBD saving APR ... like to see it at 20%
Ah thanks, was not sure where others stranded on it. I may change it later but now now i will leave it at 20%
I voted for you!
thank you very much
Congratulations on this achievement, the first of many blocks
Hah yup, now 3-4 blocks I think.. moving right along.
Congrats, @solominer! I just cast my vote for your witness, keep going strong!
Thank you, and much appreciated.. Will do
Great job 👏
I’m curious, does a high-specs node will result to a higher chance of producing blocks or it requires a bit of luck to be able to produce more?
Thanks... I have yet to miss a block, but I have heard of that happening due to low PC specs or poor network latency. Not sure what the minimum requirement is to successfully mine a block.
But getting the chance to mine a block is on rotation.. its something like the top 20 do 3/4 of all transactions. But 1/4 is done by all the other witnesses. And getting the block while happens more often the higher your rank is as a witness.
So a witness that is rank 50 will get a block way more often than someone that is rank 100.
I remember reading a comment that said the Top 40 level would still be profitable.
Given your activity on the platform and your credibility, I’m confident you'll rank higher in time.
It all depends on the cost of expenses.
Thank you, hopefully long term it will pay off.
congrats!! 🎉
Much appreciated
This sounds big, congrats!!
I actually don't have an idea about mining blocks on the Hive Blockchain. What's it all about? Please can you direct me to an article?
Though I have a list of witnesses I vote for but I don't really know how everything works.
Basically I'm producing blocks as people do stuff on Hive.. but mining on Hive is different than Bitcoin mining for example. It's much less resource intensive, but it requires people with stake to vote your witness in.
This post looks like it explains it pretty good.
Oh we can mine $Hive too? That's interesting!
Let me check the post out, thank you.
Just saw this and congratulations...
Voted by the way.🔥
