Solo Mining on Canaan Avalon Nano 3 / Nano 3S
Solo mining is a mode where you mine independently: if your miner finds a block, you receive the full block reward with no sharing. The pool fee for solo mining on Kryptex is 1%. What is SOLO Mining?
To enable solo mining, use the wallet format solo:WALLET_ADDRESS.WORKER in the Worker field instead of the standard WALLET_ADDRESS.WORKER.
⚠️ Important: For coins with lower network difficulty — FB, XEC, DGB, BCH, BSV, BC2 — the chances of finding a block are significantly higher, making solo mining especially worthwhile for home miners.
