How Can a Miner Reduce the Number of Stale Shares They Submit?

A miner can reduce stale shares by ensuring they have a low-latency, stable internet connection to the pool server. They should select a pool server that is geographically close to them.

They must also ensure their mining hardware and software are operating optimally, with no local network bottlenecks. Regularly updating the mining client and checking for pool server status are also helpful steps.
