Can you solo mine EPIC-ProgPow with a GeForce RTX 4090?

Yes — a GeForce RTX 4090 (64.08 MH/s) can solo mine EPIC-ProgPow (EPIC) via a solo pool. At EPIC-ProgPow's 22.99 GH/s ProgPow network that is about 733 blocks per year — expected one block roughly every 12.0 hours, for the full 0.9900 EPIC 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 EPIC-ProgPow

The GeForce RTX 4090 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 EPIC-ProgPow, it ranks #2 in electrical efficiency (194,172.12 H/W) and #2 in raw hashrate (64.08 MH/s).

Electricity Operating Costs & Breakeven

Running a GeForce RTX 4090 (330 W) pulls about 7.92 kWh per day (241.1 kWh per month). At the standard rate of 0.069 USD/kWh, electricity costs roughly 0.55 USD per day (16.63 USD/month or 200 USD/year). Statistically that year returns 733.10 blocks, worth about $604 — expected revenue covers the power bill about 3.0x over.

The operational breakeven threshold is 0.209 USD/kWh. Expected net operating margin at benchmark tariffs:

Break-even Coin Price Target: For this hardware to break even on electricity, EPIC-ProgPow must trade at or above 0.2750 USD at standard industrial power (0.069 USD/kWh), or 0.4783 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 12.0 hours, real-world dispersion ranges across 5% and 50% quantiles:

Jackpot Safe: Even in a 1-in-20 bad luck drought (~1 days), the EPIC-ProgPow block reward (1 USD) covers electricity costs (~1 USD) with a net surplus of ~0 USD.

GeForce RTX 4090 Price & Estimated ROI

Current market price: $2,150–$2,350 (estimated market price, median $2,250) (Hardware price estimated). Mined against its most profitable coin instead of solo, it would pay itself back in about 227 days.

How the odds have moved

EPIC-ProgPow's network hashrate climbed 128% since 2026-09-22, from 10.09 GH/s to 22.99 GH/s — so the same rig is now 128% less likely to find a block.

Where to point a GeForce RTX 4090 at EPIC-ProgPow

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 2 solo pools for EPIC-ProgPow with their stratum endpoints, fees, and pool hashrates — see EPIC-ProgPow 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 86.56%, yearly chance 100.00%.

Frequently Asked Questions: GeForce RTX 4090 on EPIC-ProgPow

Can you solo mine EPIC-ProgPow with a GeForce RTX 4090?

Yes — a GeForce RTX 4090 (64.08 MH/s) can solo mine EPIC-ProgPow (EPIC) via a solo pool. At EPIC-ProgPow's 22.99 GH/s ProgPow network that is about 733 blocks per year — expected one block roughly every 12.0 hours, for the full 0.9900 EPIC block. BackPoW computes this from live network difficulty using a Poisson block-discovery model.

Is ProgPow ASIC-resistant, and where does the GeForce RTX 4090 stand?

ProgPow is an ASIC-resistant GPU algorithm relying on memory bandwidth. The GeForce RTX 4090 ranks #2 of 2 GPUs on EPIC-ProgPow. It operates in the Mid-Range Tier (middle quartile), offering solid pool mining throughput with moderate solo variance.

What is the operating power cost and breakeven electricity rate for a GeForce RTX 4090 on EPIC-ProgPow?

At 330 W, operating a GeForce RTX 4090 consumes 7.92 kWh/day (241.1 kWh/month). At standard electricity (0.069 USD/kWh), the power bill is 0.55 USD/day (16.63 USD/month). The operational breakeven threshold is 0.209 USD/kWh.

What happens if my GeForce RTX 4090 encounters a severe dry spell on EPIC-ProgPow?

Block discovery is an independent Poisson process with no memory. In a 1-in-20 bad luck drought (5% worst luck), finding a block can stretch up to 1 days, accumulating roughly 1 USD in power costs.
