Title: "Block Head" How many?
Post by: Miner-TE on May 08, 2011, 06:20:49 AM
Just wondering,  How long have you been mining and how many blocks have you found?

I've been mining for ~3 months now, started 2/11/11, and have found 7 blocks. 

1 solo, 1 @ Slush, 4 @ Deepbit and 1 @ BTCmine (and claimed the 5BTC bonus)

I found 5 blocks a few days ago on deepbit, and another 4 on Slush last week.  Not sure how many before that (I made new accounts once I started keeping track of expenses/revenue for my taxes).

Currently looking into setting up either a private or public (0%, donation supported) pool with one of the earlier server boxes I built.  Haven't found one yet in my test pool, but I've only got half my machines working in it while my others stick to a reliable pool.

What was/is your hash rate?  You must have some power there or luckier than I.   :)

I'm only running a single 5870 (400Mh/s) but it has paid for itself already.  I'm thinking of investing in another but haven't decided.

My combined hashrate just crossed 5 gHash/sec today.  The 5 in one day on Deepbit was pure luck.  I think all 5 of them were within a 6 hour window.  I know 3 of them were within 1 hour, I found 3 of the 4 blocks found that hour at Deepbit.  I believe I was around 4 gH/s at the time.

I've been mining for about 2 months.
I have solved 1 solo block(after mining for just an hour at 600Mh/s a few weeks ago), 8 on Slush, 5 on Deepbit, and 2 on BTCmine.

I started mining with a 4890, currently I have 3 5850's

I found 1 block at slushs pool, but simply by luck.(on a cpu miner no doubt)

I'm still only at 7 BTC after a few months.
