The following steps is for those who want to create their own solo mining pool. Works best if you want to consolidate all your hashing power.

Shaicoin Solo Pool

Once you have done the steps in setting up your Core Wallet, https://node.z4ch.xyz/miners/shaicoin#run-core-wallet-and-sync
You can go ahead and configure your own solo mining pool. Let's proceed.

Configure RPC ports

Stop your core wallet by going to the /shaicoin folder and run the following command:

cd
cd shaicoin
./shaicoin-cli stop

You can check your node to confirm it has already stopped.

Next, create a shai.conf file on your .shaicoin directory. Here are the steps:

cd
cd .shaicoin
touch shai.conf

Open the shai.conf file...

nano shai.conf

Copy and paste the following. Then save it. CTRL X, Y then Enter

# Enable RPC server
server=1

# Set the username and password for RPC
rpcuser=user
rpcpassword=password

# Optional: Bind to your IP address (leave localhost for local connections)
rpcbind=127.0.0.1

# RPC listening port
rpcport=8710

# Allow only connections from localhost
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1

# Maximum number of connections
maxconnections=16

# Enable logging (optional)
logtimestamps=1

Start your node and let it sync again to the network.

cd
cd shaicon
cd src
./shaicoind

Install Solo Pool repo

Install Node.js 23.x:

Before you begin, ensure that curl is installed on your system. If curl is not installed, you can install it using the following command:

sudo apt-get install -y curl

  1. Download the setup script:

    curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_23.x -o nodesource_setup.sh

  2. Run the setup script with sudo:

    sudo -E bash nodesource_setup.sh

  3. Install Node.js:

    sudo apt-get install -y nodejs

  4. Verify the installation:

    node -v

Copy the Shaicoin Solo Backend repo.

cd
git clone https://github.com/shaicoin/shaipot-solo-backend.git
cd shaipot-solo-backend

Install Dependencies

npm install

Build Native Addon

npm run build

Configure Solo pool

Open config.json file.

nano config.json

and change the information based on your node settings. Then save it.

{
    "rpc_url": "http://your_rpc_server:port",
    "rpc_username": "user",
    "rpc_password": "password",
    "pool_shaicoin_address": "your_pool_address"
}

Here is an example:

Run Solo pool

Run your solo pool with this command:

node server.js

Connect miners

Using the same command for connecting to a mining pool, make sure you set the correct IP:port for the --pool settings.

./target/release/shaipot --address sh1xxxxxxxxxxxxxj --pool ws://161.97.130.233:3333

Your mining pool will also indicate once a miner is connected to it. Congratulations you have successfully setup your own solo mining pool.

Note:
You can also use the same approach for creating a public mining pool.
