[∞ YH] solo.ckpool.org 2% fee solo mining USA/DE 255 blocks solved!

[vh]

I suppose or if you stumble upon low or free electricity.   You can't solve a block without submitting shares.    One reason why this pool is cool, it give you that option, and it does it well.

[chillfactr]

as long as a device has enough energy to submit a single share, how fast other pools operate is irrelevant.
an s3 statistically has a 1:16245 chance of solving a block per day at the current difficulty.
1PH = 1:7
2.2G = 1:2,865,671
powerball ticket = 1:292,201,338

If this is true-and-accurate, then you sir have delivered the best news I heard this year .. cheers.  Would 3.5 PHs give you a 50/50 chance, to hit within a 24 hour period?

if waiting 2 million days for a decent chance to solve a block cheers you up with 2.2G, i'm glad to have helped.
most sane people avoid the lottery  

edit: re: 3.5PHs maybe.   Will 7PH give you 100%, no.   Over a period of time it will be 1 a day.  some days sooner some days not.

Welp.. here's hoping that the difficulty plummets after halving, because the cloud mining operations and massive pools all croak, and no more hardware is made .. so we old bastids can dust off our Butterfly Labs chit and make some coins when BTC is at $700 per

When will halving probably begin?

  congratulation to 1FCsjVb87kf2QDETvEgpRkHwE3rYfi4dky for the block!

Wow, a 950G share, nice one!  Looks like a rental based on the hash rates, hopefully they made some coin, congrats.

Still learning how things work. I appreciate all the help that's been given on this thread. I was wondering, I finished renting some hashing power on the pool a couple days ago. Obviously I solved nothing, but does the power I rented increase the odds of my S3+ that was running on the same Bitcoin address in possibly finding a block sooner while it continues to run on its own?

No. There is no such thing as "progress" in mining, in the same way that 1000 rolls of a die doesn't make you any more likely to roll a 6 on the next roll.

The power you rented only increased your odds while it was running. It has no effect on your s3+. But you still could get really lucky with your s3.

Awesome. Thanks for the response. I figured it wouldnt be that easy. I'll be keeping the S3 running but I may still rent some power again later on.

hey Joe there is a group of us pooling funds and working as team with rented miners check out this thread

1PH ain't gonna see blocks that often these days...

Days to generate one block mining solo: 7164.07 Day(s) (can vary greatly depending on your luck)...like... 20 years ?

Yeah but someone on the pool will find the next block long before the 20 years... but it will only be one lucky person at a time.

[chiguireitor]

Here's hoping my measly 25THs get lucky.... one stupid S5 borked yesterday, so i'm about 1TH down

[CuriousJoe]

I guess there are others like myself at the moment who can't afford to rent additional hashing power. With the diff being so outrageous I would imagine that a lot of us aren't going to rent any for awhile. I'd like to see the diff drop, but that may not happen until halving.

[madmartyk]

I have my 11T running until it starts getting hot or I sell the miners.  Given up on renting hash...

[CuriousJoe]

Will a power outage affect the miner in finding a block on the solo pool? Is it basically just starting over when it resets after the power flickers?

There is no "starting over" you're rolling the dice 1 million times a second. What you get this roll has no effect on the next roll.
