If you are talking about the solo pool set up by Ozcoin, They are legit.

Has anyone tried it? I know a few persons using them. Has anyone found a block yet? Guess not... ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) I'm using solopool.net with a really low hash rate, so I haven't found a block yet. But it seems to be working reliably. It's really nice to be able to point my BE's at something and forget about it.

I went through bitsolo.net FAQ. They say they have found ZERO Bitcoin blocks until now. They're merge-mining Namecoin and have found ONE Namecoin block.

And? That is perfectly normal, most people on there won't be huge farms anyway, just probably a dude with an Antminer U2 trying out his luck.

There is a known issue i cgminer / sgminer and other forks where it will report finding a block when actually block has not been found by you. Search the forum and you'll see this happening with many people. It is a known issue, nothing to do with pool scam. You can verify if you've found a block by checking if your 'Best Share' is equal or greater than current difficulty, which is not the case in your screenshot.

Also, it's blockchain.info, not bitcoinchain.info.

is it just me - or is this concept sort of dumb ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif) if you want to solo-mine = screw you pool of any kind If you want to solo-mine = run a copy of bitcoind with SETGENERATE=true and have your hashrate mine away. You keep the coins, YOU WIN! Using ANYONE or ANY service =/= solo mining. You're begging to have your time wasted and your coins stolen, period. <<< if it is truly your intention to try your luck at solo mining that is. Just don't be lazy and trust someone, diy the damn thing.
