ARRR (Pirate) Solo Mining Calculator

Estimate how long it takes to solo mine a block of ARRR (Pirate) with your own hardware. BackPoW combines the live Pirate network difficulty with your hashrate to compute the expected block time, the cumulative probability of finding a block over day, month and year, and the expected mining revenue in ARRR and USD.

About Pirate on Equihash

Pirate uses Equihash — memory-hard, hardware class: ASIC / GPU.

BackPoW tracks 5 Equihash coins. See how Equihash solo mining works and which Equihash coin is easiest to mine right now →

How ARRR solo mining odds are calculated

Solo mining is memoryless: every hash is an independent lottery ticket, so the wait for a block follows an exponential distribution rather than a fixed schedule. On average a block takes T = network_hashrate ÷ your_hashrate × block_time, and the probability of finding at least one within a window t is P = 1 − e^(−t/T). BackPoW uses this Poisson relation instead of a naive linear estimate.

Frequently asked questions

How long does it take to solo mine one ARRR block?

It depends on your hashrate relative to the ARRR network hashrate (2.18 MH/s). Because hashing is memoryless, the time to find a block follows an exponential distribution: on average T = network_hashrate / your_hashrate × block_time. Enter your hashrate in the BackPoW ARRR solo calculator to get the exact expected time.

What is the ARRR block reward?

The current ARRR block reward is 0.25 ARRR. BackPoW tracks the 24h block reward and values a discovered block in both ARRR and USD using live market prices.

Is solo mining ARRR (Pirate) profitable?

Solo mining ARRR profitability depends on your hashrate, electricity cost and pool fees versus the block reward value and how often you expect to find a block. The BackPoW calculator shows daily, monthly and yearly gross revenue and net profit so you can decide.

What algorithm does ARRR use?

ARRR (Pirate) uses the Equihash proof-of-work algorithm. You can mine it with any Equihash-capable ASIC, GPU or CPU listed in the BackPoW hardware database. Equihash is a asic / gpu algorithm, which decides what hardware stays competitive.

What are the odds of finding a ARRR block?

BackPoW models the cumulative probability of finding at least one block over a day, week, month or year with the Poisson formula P = 1 − e^(−t/T), giving a realistic chance instead of a naive linear estimate.

Is ARRR the easiest Equihash coin to solo mine?

Not currently. Among the 5 Equihash coins tracked on BackPoW, ARRR ranks #4 by how little solo hashrate a block takes; the easiest right now is Komodo (KMD). BackPoW re-ranks them from live difficulty on every update.
