ORB (Orbitcoin) Solo Mining Calculator

Estimate how long it takes to solo mine a block of ORB (Orbitcoin) with your own hardware. BackPoW combines the live Orbitcoin 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 ORB and USD.

About Orbitcoin on NeoScrypt

Orbitcoin uses NeoScrypt — memory-hard, hardware class: GPU.

BackPoW tracks 4 NeoScrypt coins. See how NeoScrypt solo mining works and which NeoScrypt coin is easiest to mine right now →

How ORB solo mining odds are calculated

Each hash is an independent attempt, so block discovery is memoryless and follows an exponential distribution. The average time to a block is T = network_hashrate ÷ your_hashrate × block_time. The chance of hitting at least one block within a period t is then given by the Poisson relation P = 1 − e^(−t/T) — the realistic probability, not a misleading linear one.

Frequently asked questions

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

It depends on your hashrate relative to the ORB network hashrate (494.01 KH/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 ORB solo calculator to get the exact expected time.

What is the ORB block reward?

The current ORB block reward is 0.06 ORB. BackPoW tracks the 24h block reward and values a discovered block in both ORB and USD using live market prices.

Is solo mining ORB (Orbitcoin) profitable?

Solo mining ORB 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 ORB use?

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

What are the odds of finding a ORB 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 ORB the easiest NeoScrypt coin to solo mine?

Not currently. Among the 4 NeoScrypt coins tracked on BackPoW, ORB ranks #2 by how little solo hashrate a block takes; the easiest right now is 01coin (ZOC). BackPoW re-ranks them from live difficulty on every update.
