You know, I think sometimes people just enjoy mining for the sake of mining. The concept it represents or the ideas and dreams of the past - when you just might hit something solo mining. Save the electricity costs, there is no real downside; it allows few with old mining hardware to still look over at it mining away and smile from time to time. I think it is good for the idea of bitcoin as a whole.

's'up shills, what exactly do could/hashlet scams have to do with solo mining you low life piece of shit crooks?  
Looks like somebody here is butthurt. Any proof of the scam or are you just spitting random hate?
Oh, and we start a sentence with a capital letter. Cheesy

Butthurt, my asshole is so wide you could drive a tractor trailer though it after having it reamed out by the Gypsies (literally) at Black Arrow.

As for these scammers a quick search of BCT reveals:

Proof of dishonesty and lies from Gawminers.com Hashlet Ponzi Scheme Scam
ZenCloud has to be a scam -- especially HASHLET
gawminers scam
Watch out for GawMiners, ZenCloud, ZenMiner.. PONZI Scheme!
GAWMiners - WARNING customer service and damaged/used products

...and yes we do start a sentence with a capital letter, the "W" is in fact capitalized.  Wink

It's very easy to pick a random thread just by reading the name and judge. Scam accusations aren't removed, so every overreaction by a client stays here forever even if the case is resolved.
I could for example make a thread right now called NOTBATMAN SCAMMER and send it to some of my friends to start similar threads in different sections, then link it to you as proof.
Just one look inside shows that:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=749980
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=742922.0
Both these threads were started by newbies with activity 1 who never defended their claims and disappeared right after posting (most likely both were made by the same person).
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=756339.0  
The first post of this thread says: Edit: Was refunded several hours after updating this thread for full amount owed.  At this point they are refunding people, slowly, but they are, so apologies to gaw at this time.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=760175.0
The first post of this thread says: DELETE PLEASE
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=710091.20
This thread is a month old and was answered by GAW support, the poster didn't update it so we can assume the case was closed.

If you have any questions about GAW I'll be happy to answer you.

Ok, now I understand your attitude, but GAW can't be responsible for every single person who promotes them, even if these people are doing it in a wrong place.
There's a large number of companies providing cloud mining services around the world and most of them are real. The fact that 1 out of 10 is a scam does't mean others are too.
GAW is a brick and mortar company and you can visit their office whenever you like or meet them next week on a conference in Vegas.
I hope you'll have more luck with your future investments Smiley

Since I have been hit by lightening maybe I should point my few Ths at ckolivas's solopool and watch the BTC roll in  Grin

You are more likely to be struck by lightning than you are to be solve a block.  So the potential is there, but odds most certainly are not in your favor.  Turn off the miner but keep it as a novelty unless you enjoy seeing CGMiner running  Cheesy

Maybe a lightning will provide him free electricity.  Cheesy

Why are you angry? From what I can see GAW is legit company. And I think one of a better companies on cryptomarket. I read people comments about Hashets and everyone tells the same thing - GAW's customers are making money out of Hashelts, ROI is certainly there. As far as I know GAW never scammed anyone too. I have seen people calling whole bitcoin a 'ponzi scheme'. It is like catchphrase for some haters. Please don't be one them. Hava a nice day.

If you're planning to solo-mine Bitcoin, you should do only with USB miners since they use electricity next to nothing.

Using a power-hungry doesn't improve your chances of finding a block drastically anyway.

If you're lucky enough, you can be struck by lightning
I mean it's hard to mine 1BTC now, the chance is just too little.

What about if you make sure that latency of ISP connection is very low, not using a very long ethernet cable, connecting the cable modem directly to the mining computer, running a slim streamed Windows XP SP3 installation entirely on a RAM drive [in my case, I have an ACARD 24GB DDR2 SATA Ram Drive] in order to obliterate the seek times you would normally see on a standard platter based SATA hard drive and even the ram drive would beat any SSD drive in terms of seek times.

Since mining involves first downloading block(s) which will first get stored on the hard drive, and then loaded onto the system's RAM to be analyzed and then the results uploaded back to serving nodes, do you think that solo mining under a very low latency internet connection, under a computer with a ram drive installed to lesser data seek times and uploading the results back to serving nodes with little latency, will that cause me to find a block first before the ASIC's out there gets a chance to process the data? 

Will this work?  Has anyone ever tried anything like this?  If so, what was the result.

I haven't tried it due to not having sufficient time due to work, but I will try if I can see a positive confirmation from others.
