Yes its possible to solo mine.  However, you need a high hashrate.

If you want a stratum zec mining pool setup for you I can do that.

Cost is 1.5 Bitcoins.

You have to supply the linux vps.

If you follow the tutorial step by step you can set up a working mining pool, even a beginner with no proper knowledge of linux like me did it in second try.


How much hashrate is enough for solo mining 50.000+ ?

from what people are finding on luckpool.org it looks like 40k will get you a block every 2-3 days!!!

At the moment I get 6.3 zec per day, I'll try to count how profitable it will be to mine on my own pool.
But due to my knowledge in linux I'll need some help and have to find some local stuff for it..

so if i mine now with only my adress, with 400 SOL, i will NEVER get anything, thats what ur saying?
you may be lucky enough to get a block, but chances are below 0

considering the number of people mining and their power, at 400 SOL you'll be lucky to get a block. It would be more profitable to join a pool. Anyone with higher hashrates have better chances at solo mining, but for lower hash rates it's better for pool mining
