Any reason why you'd want to solo mine except for the fun of trying?
- you are very likely to never solve a block and make zero return
Nope. I figured I'd do it on a coin with a super low difficulty just to see it work. I have 3 antminer U2s, so there is really no point to try mining bitcoin, even in a pool. I left them running over night in a bitcoin pool just out of curiosity, and I earned a whopping 70 satoshi
. I'm honestly not in this to make money, it's more of just something I'd like to learn about and have fun with.
