Run your own SOLO Bitcoin mining pool.

Requires a Bitcoin address. It is strongly recommended to use a Coinbase receive address as the pool wallet.

Please review the following projects for configuration examples and background:

• https://github.com/golden-guy/ckpool-solo
• https://hub.docker.com/r/pinkyswear/ckpool-solo

This Unraid template supports custom IPs, ports, and Bitcoin node integration over RPC.

IMPORTANT REQUIREMENT:
You MUST run a full Bitcoin Core node with the following settings enabled:

• txindex=1
• prune=0

Example bitcoin.conf options required for ckpool operation:
server=1
rpcuser=bitcoinrpc
rpcpassword=yourstrongpassword
rpcbind=0.0.0.0
rpcport=8332
rpcallowip=172.0.0.0/8
txindex=1
prune=0

Typical Bitcoin node data directory contents:
.bitcoin
-banlist.json
-bitcoin.conf
-bitcoind.pid
-debug.log
-fee_estimates.dat
-mempool.dat
-peers.dat
-settings.json

CKPool container configuration directory contents:
conf
-ckpool.conf

An example ckpool.conf file can be found here:
https://hub.docker.com/r/pinkyswear/ckpool-solo

This container connects to the Bitcoin Core node via RPC.

Special thanks to:
https://bitbucket.org/ckolivas/ckpool-solo
https://github.com/golden-guy/ckpool-solo

This container depends on a separate Docker container running a full Bitcoin Core node.

You must run Bitcoin Core with the following options enabled:
txindex=1
prune=0

You must provide a valid Bitcoin address for mining rewards.

A valid ckpool.conf file must exist before the container will start successfully.
