You can... if you have a couple of hundreds of years.

I think it is interesting , after all you have to be in it to win it

I wonder what the lowest khs on a miner has been that found a block

PS I am not mining with just 1khs  Grin

Current nethash 130TH/s, one block every 10 minutes, your 1kH/s so chance/10mins = 1k/130T = 1 in 130 billion.
Or 1 in a billion per day. Do you feel lucky, punk?

PS, actually better odds that some lottos. perhaps?

while I accept it may be incredibly unlikely , is it possible ?
Anything is possible with enough time, a really really long time.
