What is mining pool?

Mining pool is a space for miners to do mining together with big hash power. 

So mining pools provide us facility to work together in union to gain more profit.

Mining pools  provide us ease to mine Bitcoin and other coins in simple way by guiding us step by step. And also they give new new updates about mining system and mining industry of hardware which provides mining hardwares.

Can we do mining without going through mining pool?

Yes, you can. But for this you need some knowledge to create own pool in our PC system.

You don’t  require many type of complicated and programming knowledge.

You can easily get software program files at GitHub , follow steps & guidance from their thread at GITHUB .

But keep in  your mind that if you will face any type of problem in mining then no one will help you in accurate way. Because everyone in this field of mining is not experienced, so it will be tough for you in dramatic situation of mining programs.

Why we should join mining pool?

Because we get lots of ease to handle our mining work.

And also mining became more easy with the use of mining pool.

We can understand this thing in more technical way : Every pool can mine a single block of blockchain system at one time and then it will go through second block.

So if many people will work together at a single pool then they can make mine a block with more ease.

Otherwise if you will make your own pool and mine a single block, then there are lots of chances that you may fail to mine the single block in a day or a week ( depending upon the difficulty level of blockchain algorithm problems/transactions and also it depends upon the type of the blockchain )

So here we can say that union is strength.
