Hmm, that is true, well I guess I could try it for 24 hours or maybe 48. Although if I mine in my own pool, and I reach a block and get it. Say if the block is worth 25Btc, does that mean I get the whole 25Btc because its not being shared in a pool?


Its not something you can really test in 24-48 hours.    You would run it for years and most likely never hit it.  If you did yes you would get 25 BTC.   But with 1TH it is very very small chance.

Notlist3d said the same thing I know, but it's true: It's like playing lottery and it's much more expensive than buying a ticket. Also lottery gives better odds  Grin

It would be like playing the lotto.   ITH is nothing compared to big pools.    They have a LOT of power behind them.  If you look at pools on here you will see how powerful some are.

Hi, I recently bought a 1Th/s miner, and I had a pool setup earlier, although I only ran it with 0.5Gh/s which clearly isn't enough for my own pool, so I was curious if 1Th/s would be enough?
