almost 110TH, also the guy who found the last 2 blocks is back with 14+TH

Somebody's got some pretty serious firepower pointed there, that's for sure.  One address has 160TH/s... the lucky guy who found the pool's only 2 blocks is there with 15TH/s.  That "high roller" would expect to find a block about every 6 days with that hash rate at current difficulty.  $17,000 a week payday.  Not too shabby.

yeah but 160TH on a regular pool would net a little over 4btc a day, so about $2,500 daily..which is about the same as finding a block every 6 days

I bet hes banking on finding some quick back to back blocks?

We'll I wish them good luck with finding quick blocks. But these days, a pool like Slush's can go more than 24 hours without finding a block. And they have 4.5PHs.

I wouldn't risk my hash solo mining unless I had at least 1PHs.

I would like to know this guy with the 180 + I am hoping he would pm me and let me know  whom he is.

 math is easy enough  if he is running  s-3's over clocked he needs 360 to 400 of them. cost = 400 x .65 or 260 btc



 I do wonder why would you trust the pool to pay you. it is a small pool.  if the guy got lucky and hit a 36 to 1 shot (2 blocks in a day)   would not the pool owner be tempted to run.

I am going to run 2 s-3 at it tonight.

done I am in with 950gh

190 TH/s now and no block found after 6 days. A sobering reality of todays difficulty ....

Would be interesting to know what rig this person has @ 190 TH/s !

I've got my 2 s1's there , and load balancing one s3 with pool#3 on bitsolo

I noticed the guy who found the last 2 blocks is gone now

If I made 50 BTC in the span of a week, I highly doubt I would still be mining.

well he was on there all last week as #2 biggest at 15TH along with the 150TH guy

It depends on how much I spent on the hardware to make that 50BTC a week.  If for example, I had purchased 250 batch 1 S3s for that 110TH/s, I'd have spent about 173BTC for the hardware alone (that's the original 0.75BTC per unit with the 7.7% refund).  I'm sure Bitmain might have worked out a better price if I ordered that much hardware, but since I don't know reseller or large-quantity-buyer discounts, I just posted the retail.  Anyway, I'd also need the PSUs to drive them, the electricity to power them and the facilities to handle them.  I'd certainly want to be mining considerably longer than a week to recoup my costs :).

The big baller is flexing his pecs and is now powering at 223 TH/s !!   :o
Still no sign of any blocks found though  ::)

The guy with 223THs is an idiot! A block is worth about $15,000. He'd be earning approximately $25,000 per week on a regular pool. So he needs to find nearly 2 blocks per week solo mining to beat pool mining.

And since he has must have to pay an astronomical electric bill or data center hosting bill, he's royally screwing himself.

Unless of course its Bitsolo's own rig.

fair play to them, all or nothing, I like it!  I hope they start finding some blocks  8)

Looks like he hit one finally!

Nice, good for them  8)

he found 3 blocks within 2 days!

$45k in 3 days. That's the lottery he is playing.

make that 60k.. dude found a 4th block

$45k in 1 day. Amaizing.

WoW he got lucky! :)

But how long was he mining before finding a block?

about a week or so

That's actually impressive, wonder what hardware he's using?

Someone with less than 2Th found a block June 23rd, what was the diff around that time ? I forget.

13,462,580,115.

I've already used up my luck.  I hit a block back in April with an S1 that had been mining for about 2 weeks.  Unfortunately for me I was not solo mining, I was on p2pool.  Sure, I got the 0.125BTC block finder's reward... but nowhere near as satisfying as seeing that 25BTC in the old wallet... :)

So P2P pays the tx fees to the finder, thats cool. If it was a bit larger I might join it.

P2Pool pays transaction fees, and also pays the block finder a 0.5% reward.  Currently p2pool is averaging between 2 and 2.5PH/s... it's growing.

Well for right now it doesn't seem worth it to me. I've go ~5Th and I haven found a block yet but I know a lot factors in to that.

It's unbelievable the guy found 5 Blocks in 11 days😎

Yeah, he's got at least a 125k fiat investment, about half of it made back in 11 days...not bad. Another luck streak and he's in the profit.

Im renting 13.5 TH from leaserig.net and mining at bitsolo, hoping to get lucky :)

Looks like big baller has left the building. He/She/They backed down from a high of 170+ and kept dropping down in steps till they were all gone as it looked like this is a block from concrete land.

Big Baller is BitJohn of Cryptsy. See my recent posts to get up to speed.
