My brother was mining on my laptop bitcoin. I have a nividia 660M geforce gtx grapics card. He solo mined for 1 day and found a block. If I am correct a block is 25 bitcoin, and the market value of bitcoin is about 450.

So did my Brother hit the lottery in bitcoin  Shocked?

Every time a block is mined, a certain amount of BTC (called the subsidy) is created out of thin air and given to the miner. The subsidy halves every four years and will reach 0 in about 130 years.

We are asking for proof of the block being mined not if you have 25 bitcoins or not. This requires the block id and proof that "your brother" owns the address they were mined into. Access to LocalBitcoins isn't required to prove that.

Yeah, and I'm acutally Satoshi and I mined 1 million coins with my CPU. Oh shit, I was meant to stay anonymous...  Roll Eyes

Congrats if it is true, but I believe most of us won't believe in your story unless you can provide the block number.

At around 90MH/s, your luck (chances) is about 1 in 4.4 Million.

Not really, you can find the following announcement on http://localbitcoins.blogspot.com/.

Attack against LocalBitcoins infrastructure 3.5.2014
LocalBitcoins received a very dangerous attack against the site infrastructure on Saturday 3.5.2014.
For now

    All user data and Bitcoins are safe;
    The site will be down for a while as the system is being rebuilt

Details
LocalBitcoins hosting provided received a request to restart the LocalBitcoins.com website server and give access to the server console (root) on Sat May 3 13:32:27. LocalBitcoins team did not initiate this request. For now, it looks like the request was made using spoofed email addresses and other weakness in the hosting provider support system.

    LocalBitcoins team was alerted about the abnormal activity when the hosting provider restarted the server.
    The attacker gained a root access to the server for ~40 minutes before the attacker was kicked out and the server shutdown.
    All data on the website server is encrypted. Manual actions are needed to make this data readable, so the attacker could not gain access to the data even when having a server console access.

It is very unlikely that the attacker gained access to any data;  LocalBitcoins is still performing full investigation on the matter.

    Bitcoins in hot wallet and cold wallet are safe, as LocalBitcoins runs its bitcoind and wallets on a separate server.
    LocalBitcoins team has started to rebuild the website server on fresh hardware.

LocalBitcoins team will make further announcements when the investigation proceeds and the site becomes available again.  We expect to spend at least 24 hours on this. LocalBitcoins team apologizes the issues the downtime may cause to the users.

This is why I sometimes is tempted to start my CPU miner for a few hours. I mean, what IF it actually worked…
I would love to see the proof for this though.

If this is true your bother really "hit the lucky lottery ticket", but as It's really rare we want some kind of proof. Otherwise i doubt anyone will believe this.

Doubtful story.... It is close to impossible to mine a block of bitcoin through solo mining. And that too mining using a laptop? Something doesn't sounds right. Post the screenshot, we will believe.
