| Jan 9, 2017 at 21:58 | comment | added | jackg | I didn't know about the coinbase transaction. And actually no, I don't think you need any additional software once you have bitcoin core set up as a node as the additional software that's needed comes with things like (bfgminer, cgminer - which are to be installed on the miner). cgminer is software preinstalled onto bitmain antminers (developed by --ck on bitcointalk if I remeber correctly). | |
| Jan 9, 2017 at 20:55 | comment | added | Murch♦ | Much better! Minor nit: The coinbase transaction (the first transaction in the block) is the one that creates the money and sends it to you. Therefore, the moment that you create a valid block, you're paying yourself (if it becomes part of the longest chain). I also think that you need additional software to connect your node and the mining hardware, but I actually don't know for sure. | |

| Jan 9, 2017 at 13:24 | comment | added | Murch♦ | -1 This answer appears to be pretty confusing to me: "You can solo mine with multiple people/miners." is oxymoronic, since "solo mining" means that you mine by yourself. In the second part, you constrain by saying "without a pool" and then continue by giving instructions on how to create a pool. This answer should be reworked or removed. | |
