OwnBlock does not predict the next block and does not guarantee that you will find one. Bitcoin Cash mining remains probabilistic: your chances depend on your share of the active network hash rate, the current difficulty and the natural statistical variance of proof-of-work mining.

Our signals are designed to help you make more informed decisions about when to mine, avoiding less efficient mining windows and deploying hash rate when network conditions may offer a slightly better opportunity profile.

Frequently asked questions

What are BCH mining signals?

BCH mining signals are real-time indicators of the Bitcoin Cash network state. They analyse data such as the current block interval, the recent block average, the current difficulty and consecutive slow-block patterns. Their purpose is to help you decide when to deploy your hash rate by identifying moments where network conditions may be more favourable from a statistical perspective.

What is ASERT in Bitcoin Cash?

ASERT is the difficulty adjustment algorithm used by Bitcoin Cash to adapt mining difficulty according to the actual pace of block production. Its purpose is to help the network maintain an average block time close to 10 minutes by gradually adjusting difficulty when blocks are being found too quickly or too slowly. For miners, ASERT matters because it directly affects mining conditions. OwnBlock takes this behaviour into account, together with block intervals and the current network state, to help you identify moments where deploying your hash rate may offer a slightly better opportunity profile, without guaranteeing that you will find a block.

What is an opportunity window?

An opportunity window may appear when the BCH network produces blocks more slowly than expected, meaning that block intervals are significantly above the 10-minute average target. During these periods, a temporary mismatch may emerge between the actual pace of the network, the current difficulty and the active network hash rate. If that situation persists, deploying hash rate during the window may offer a slightly better opportunity profile than mining continuously through less efficient conditions.

How does OwnBlock identify favourable mining windows?

OwnBlock Mining Signals monitors the Bitcoin Cash network in real time to help you identify potentially favourable mining windows. It analyses indicators such as the current block interval, the recent average block time, the current difficulty and the presence of consecutive slow blocks. These signals do not predict the next block or guarantee results. Their purpose is to give you a clear reading of the network state, so you can make better decisions about when to deploy your hash rate, especially when conditions may offer a slightly better opportunity profile.

How does OwnBlock notify me when an opportunity window appears?

When OwnBlock detects an opportunity window on the Bitcoin Cash network, the signal will appear directly on this page as soon as it is identified. To see it, simply remain on this window and follow the live network status. The signal will update automatically when conditions indicate a possible mining opportunity.

Does OwnBlock guarantee that I will find a block?

No. OwnBlock does not predict blocks and does not guarantee results. Mining remains probabilistic. The signals help you make more informed decisions about when to mine, but finding a block always depends on your hash rate, the current difficulty, the active network hash rate and the natural statistical variance of proof-of-work mining.
