I have decided to try the lottery by mining solo with an SP20 on solo.ckpool.org
You can watch the stats live here :

I will keep you updated in case I find a block !

If anyone wants to contribute with a little hash to a good cause is welcome ^^

I sincerely wish you luck with your solo mining!

Since there are not so much topics and updates in the Mining section, your updates will be highly anticipated. Please do them. And GL again!

Thanks, much appreciated !

What a lad! How much did you pay for the SP20?

I have maximum respect for people embarking on solo mining ventures still, I wish you a lot of luck! That's Satoshi's dream :)

Wish you the best of luck !

Well the guy who started the "solo mining with an S3" topic hit a solo block within like a week or two, so maybe that's the secret to getting the block gods to smile down on you.  Good luck!  My S3+ is back up in solo lottery mode, we could all use an extra 25 coins in our wallets.  8)

Hey guys, are there a store around selling cheap ASIC for "solo lottery" mining ? Can you recommend some low power model ? Thanks.

I wish you best of luck too.  I tried that once with my S3 but no luck, and eventually sold it.

Thank you all !
The best part about this is that my SP20 runs on free electricity and he long time ROId so I have almost nothing to lose except maybe a few coins that it would have mined in a regular pool

I wish you luck! Was nice watching the other thread and seeing it pay off for the guy so hope it works for you too!

plus I have 3 times his hash :D

I wish you luck, but in my opinion, you might as well play the powerball.  There is so much going on now with mining and all these farms starting up, you are just a blip on the screen now, wait until these farms get up and running.  I understand the purpose of mining and I wish all solo ventures luck, but use your power and make a small difference for yourself.  Get into a mining pool where you will get something more than what you will get solo.  What if you hit the first one then do not hit any more for a year?  I highly advise against it.

This is my dream . i wish you a lot of luck and i wish you find successiveness block :) Who knows you may come up to high winning block like this ;D

Good luck, I have 2 S5's solo'ing on NiceHash right now, been running for a couple weeks.  Best share so far is...  3,071,411,404.57

Good luck!!!

Still mining here ... no luck yet :D

Thanks everyone again

people have hit blocks with alot less hash, so i think you have a decent chance  goodluck, do a give away when you do hit one ;)

that is exactly my intention
hit and run :P

Good Luck mate! I hope you will hit it soon. Report here about it then, we are all waiting :) Not for a giveaway of course, but it's nice to see someone has a big luck )

Wow, free electricity sure is nice...
All these threads about solo mining got me into putting one S3+ unit to draw some tickets at the solo BTC lottery :) my electricity is not free unfortunately but it's used to heat my office in winter which is kinda the same idea...

Good luck mining!
Hope you'll strike internet gold soon :)

I am solo mining with a similar hashrate... I was tempted on the spondoolies tech but I felt with my electricity I felt they were too expensive to run! Wishing you good luck! :D

6 days later ... no luck yet :D

Good luck.

8 days later .. no block hit, yet !

Going forward full speed ! :D

I have also recently pointed a few TH to a solo pool for fun.

Just wondering how it is going.  I was thinking of doing something similar on my own, but I do not have the money to try something large enough to make a difference.  I was thinking of buying a miner and getting with a poll, but I am not sure how that will work either. 

no luck yet :P

Good luck.

I send you the best Karma possible my fellow bitcoiner..
Not sure if it's a word but maybe we can add it in the dictionary

hashing  away myself.... : )

What is your best share so far ??

Can I ask, how is the electricity free? Running on someone elses electric bill or self generated power?

Good like sir

oh well, no blocks found, i've sold the miner already for a profit :P

Should have persisted :) You barely went two weeks :) Mine are still hashing away :) Waiting for the hit : )

Got 3.5 TH/s... Sometimes I wonder if I should solo mine... I can be lucky as I can be all the way unlucky....hard risk.

wish you luck. i have 6 s3+ thinking about doing the same.
what is the best solo mining website ?

May as well lock the thread then.
