(XCH) CHIA solo MINING

Hi, anyone here have any how to setup (XCH) CHIA solo MINING?

Go to YouTube and type Chia mining you will see many tutorial videos showing you how to perfectly setup a chia mining but solo mining sucks so much right now because of high difficulty mining on the network, I hope you plan to go with 100TB or more and a badass CPU setup for fast plotting, honestly speaking this chia mining thing isn't for everyone

Totally agree. The net space has grown exponentially since launch. I started solo farming about a week after launch when the net space was in the 100's of PiB's and up till now I've only farmed two blocks with 73 TiB of plots. My current expected time to win a block is 3 months. Even though the net space growth has finally started to stabilize and there are new plotters that are much more efficient than the Chia wallet plotter, unless you have access to lots of unused storage space, Chia solo farming is probably not going to work out. Prices for large capacity HDD's have also gone up 30-50%, which is why I stopped plotting after running out of space.

May have spoke too soon. Farmed another block yesterday, about 3 weeks after my last. If you already have the space, it may be worth it to plot. Once the plots are made there is little maintenance/expense to keep them running and see what happens until official pools are out.

it's still not worth it if you just started imo. if you really want to mine then waiting for a pool is probably a better idea before you start mass buying ssds from the market. might as well mine with gpus if you can spend a lot of money without batting an eye lid.
