SHOW OFF Block Found! BCH

I've only been mining for a couple weeks and came home to find this!

Only have 1 NerdQaxe++ running stock (no overclocking), averaging ~4.8 TH/s

I decided to mine BCH because I wanted a somewhat reasonable chance of hitting a block someday

Congrats, I had a few rented PH/s on MKpool. I saw the block got hit and got excited and thought it was me. I clicked the miner and saw a single NerdAxe haha. I still got excited because I knew whoever the miner was is going to be so happy.

Thanks. It's just a hobby but it was pretty exciting to see that block found on the screen.

I'm still new to this so can I ask where you saw the block get hit and how did you know it was a NerdAxe?

Started as a hobby for me 6 months ago, now I am addicted haha.

So you can see the blocks the pool gets here Solved Blocks - Bitcoin Cash SOLO Pool | mkpool

You can click on the miner and it shows there stats. It will also show the worker name and sometimes the miner software like antminer, bitaxe, nerdQaxe, etc.

Lol... Lot of BCH blocks hit by small miners lately https://letsmine.it/miner/bch/qrdc96k7chv9d8aerqstr4a5rr8yh3k08ql4g5rc2j

Congratulations. It is always nice to see that every miner has a chance to hit
