Can you solo mine Monacoin with a Dayun Zig Z1?
Yes — a Dayun Zig Z1 (6.82 GH/s) can solo mine Monacoin (MONA) via a solo pool. At Monacoin's 83.37 GH/s Lyra2REv2 network that is about 27,393 blocks per year — expected one block roughly every 19.2 min, 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 Dayun Zig Z1 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 #1 in electrical efficiency (5,680,833.33 H/W) and #1 in raw hashrate (6.82 GH/s).
Electricity Operating Costs & Breakeven
Running a Dayun Zig Z1 (1,200 W) pulls about 28.80 kWh per day (876.6 kWh per month). At the standard rate of 0.069 USD/kWh, electricity costs roughly 1.99 USD per day (60.49 USD/month or 726 USD/year). Statistically that year returns 27,392.61 blocks, worth about $11,236 — expected revenue covers the power bill about 15.5x over.
The operational breakeven threshold is 1.068 USD/kWh. Expected net operating margin at benchmark tariffs:
- At 0.040 USD/kWh (Hydro / Renewable): +29.61 USD / day
- At 0.069 USD/kWh (Standard Industrial): +28.78 USD / day
- At 0.120 USD/kWh (Residential Grid): +27.31 USD / day
Break-even Coin Price Target: For this hardware to break even on electricity, Monacoin must trade at or above 0.00424 USD at standard industrial power (0.069 USD/kWh), or 0.00737 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 19.2 min, real-world dispersion ranges across 5% and 50% quantiles:
- Lucky streak (5% Odds): Block within ~59 s (1-in-20 fastest discovery, power cost: ~0 USD)
- Median expectation (50% Odds): Block within ~13.3 min (Nominal median, power cost: ~0 USD)
- Bad luck streak (5% Odds): Can stretch up to ~57.5 min (1-in-20 extended dry spell, power cost: ~0 USD)
Jackpot Safe: Even in a 1-in-20 bad luck drought (~57.5 min), the Monacoin block reward (0 USD) covers electricity costs (~0 USD) with a net surplus of ~0 USD.
Dayun Zig Z1 Price & Estimated ROI
Current market price: $350–$1,000 (estimated market price, median $500) (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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| BlackMiner F1+ | 324.36 MH/s | 6.7 hours | 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 Dayun Zig Z1 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:

How the odds are calculated
Because each hash succeeds independently, finding a block is a Poisson process — there is no 'due' block, only an average rate. The mean time between blocks is T = network_hashrate ÷ your_hashrate × block_time, and the realistic chance of at least one block over a period t is P = 1 − e^(−t/T). That is why a longer run raises your odds but never guarantees a block. For this pair: daily chance 100.00%, yearly chance 100.00%.
