Can you solo mine Monacoin with a BlackMiner F1+?
Yes — a BlackMiner F1+ (324.36 MH/s) can solo mine Monacoin (MONA) via a solo pool. At Monacoin's 83.37 GH/s Lyra2REv2 network that is about 1,303 blocks per year — expected one block roughly every 6.7 hours, for the full 6.2500 MONA block. BackPoW computes this from live network difficulty using a Poisson block-discovery model. Realistically this is genuinely worth a patient solo run.
Hardware Tier & Ecosystem Ranking on Monacoin
The BlackMiner F1+ is categorized in the Mid-Range Workhorse Tier (Middle quartile hashrate offering solid pool mining throughput with moderate solo variance.). Among all 2 tracked models on Monacoin, it ranks #2 in electrical efficiency (458,130.51 H/W) and #2 in raw hashrate (324.36 MH/s).
Electricity Operating Costs & Breakeven
Running a BlackMiner F1+ (708 W) pulls about 16.99 kWh per day (517.2 kWh per month). At the standard rate of 0.069 USD/kWh, electricity costs roughly 1.17 USD per day (35.69 USD/month or 428 USD/year). Statistically that year returns 1,303.35 blocks, worth about $535 — expected revenue covers the power bill about 1.2x over.
The operational breakeven threshold is 0.086 USD/kWh. Expected net operating margin at benchmark tariffs:
- At 0.040 USD/kWh (Hydro / Renewable): +0.78 USD / day
- At 0.069 USD/kWh (Standard Industrial): +0.29 USD / day
- At 0.120 USD/kWh (Residential Grid): -0.58 USD / day
Break-even Coin Price Target: For this hardware to break even on electricity, Monacoin must trade at or above 0.0526 USD at standard industrial power (0.069 USD/kWh), or 0.0914 USD at residential power (0.120 USD/kWh).
Bankroll & Variance Risk Simulator
Solo mining block discovery follows a memoryless Poisson distribution. While the average wait is 6.7 hours, real-world dispersion ranges across 5% and 50% quantiles:
- Lucky streak (5% Odds): Block within ~20.7 min (1-in-20 fastest discovery, power cost: ~0 USD)
- Median expectation (50% Odds): Block within ~4.7 hours (Nominal median, power cost: ~0 USD)
- Bad luck streak (5% Odds): Can stretch up to ~20.1 hours (1-in-20 extended dry spell, power cost: ~1 USD)
High Variance Alert: In a 1-in-20 severe drought (~20.1 hours), cumulative electricity burned (~1 USD) will exceed the block reward value (0 USD). Pool mining is recommended for risk-averse operators.
BlackMiner F1+ Price & Estimated ROI
Current market price: $650–$950 (estimated market price, median $799) (Hardware price estimated).
How other hardware compares on Monacoin
Devices in the same hashrate class, solo mining Monacoin at today's difficulty:
| Hardware | Hashrate | Expected block | Chance in 1 year |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dayun Zig Z1 | 6.82 GH/s | 19.2 min | 100.00% |
How the odds have moved
Monacoin's network hashrate climbed 7% since 2026-09-08, from 78.11 GH/s to 83.37 GH/s — so the same rig is now 7% less likely to find a block.
Where to point a BlackMiner F1+ at Monacoin
Solo mining still runs through a solo pool: it handles the block template and pays the full reward to whoever finds the block. BackPoW tracks 1 solo pool for Monacoin with their stratum endpoints, fees, and pool hashrates — see Monacoin solo mining pools:
- mining-dutch.nl (Fee: 1% · Hashrate: 14.66 GH/s)
How the odds are calculated
Each hash is an independent attempt, so block discovery is memoryless and follows an exponential distribution. The average time to a block is T = network_hashrate ÷ your_hashrate × block_time. The chance of hitting at least one block within a period t is then given by the Poisson relation P = 1 − e^(−t/T) — the realistic probability, not a misleading linear one. For this pair: daily chance 97.18%, yearly chance 100.00%.
