Solo mining is a straightforward approach to handling a mining job. As illustrated in the graph above, the process involves fetching a job from a stratum, generating an incremental nonce, and applying the double SHA256 hashing algorithm.
To enhance performance, consider implementing the following optimization techniques:
- Midstate Optimization: Optimize the calculation of the midstate to improve efficiency during the mining process.
- Early Exit Strategy: Implement an early exit strategy to avoid unnecessary computations and increase overall mining speed.
The first nonce in this case is always set to 0 and is incremented at each iteration. In the scenario of multiple cores, each core participates in incrementing the nonce value, effectively doubling the mining speed compared to using a single core.
