The pool, named 'ckpoolau', is part of the CKpool network but operates independently from its global and European counterparts due to regional connection requirements.
Although the infrastructure is optimized for the region, Kolivas expects that low-power Bitaxe setups will dominate the new pool, and it will remain the lowest-performing in the CKpool network — mainly due to high electricity prices in Australia, which are nearly twice as high as in the US.
Mining solo in Australia is not cheap. Maintaining a Bitaxe device can cost up to 22 Australian cents per day, and the chances of winning a bitcoin block with it are incredibly low — estimated at once every 14,000 years. Despite this, some enthusiasts still pursue this challenge.
Meanwhile, one lucky solo miner recently earned 3.175 BTC by solving block 904,989 with an impressive hashrate of 200 pH/s. Kolivas suspects that the miner rented this power rather than using local equipment, considering the scale. At such a block size, a win is expected roughly once a month.
Kolivas, known for previously managing a zero-fee mining pool, views the expansion in Australia as part of a larger strategy to decentralize access to solo mining worldwide — even in high-cost conditions.
