Solo mining reward vs payout

by cryptominor · · Post #28120

Hello,

I mined a solo block of Digibyte and see that the payout is less than the reward.

Found Block
SHA-256
DigiByte 525.879230810000 DGB
DigiByte 515.414234116881 DGB

This is 98.01% of the payout.

Is there a mining fee of 1.99% for prohashing.com?

Thank you

That's correct. The solo mining fee for Digibyte is 1.99%. However, because merge mining is occurring, you'll notice you receive small amounts of Digibytes continuously, which actually cause you to earn more than the fee costs.

Thank you Steve.

Today I saw a Blast coin that was found with a 0 payout while solo mining. I realize that I have several miners mining solo and one mining switch. I will change so that all of my miners are mining solo so I can see the rewards over the course of a few days.
