the chance of getting a block is very very low when doing it alone. so it makes sense to join together to increase your chance and take a share of the winnings regularly. rather then do it alone and wait forever for a one time win

Thx Franky!!!

Guys, Ive find a quote from Adam Back regarding mining pools:

There is also one more factor on mining protocols. So many people use pools because it’s – you know,
it’s a very large hashrate, and so you get low latency. And so long frequencies between winning blocks
and high variance. And such that there is a variance, they use that.


What does he mean with that?

Thx in davance
