yes, i may sound like a complete noob (wich i am really) still, i want to ask you guys, whats the base of SOLO MINNING ? electricity? how can someone earn? if anyone could care to explain that to me, i'd be much obliged

regards
It would depend. Solomining is more of a chance and gambling game for people who bought hardware and have no means of getting ROI. If they get lucky, they may win the whole block reward+transaction fee by themselves. Not many people has done this though.
some people like gambling I guess.

although I find wasting electricity and time utterly stupid.

Stupid??? Not necessarily if you are lucky at gambling and also at finding few genesis blocks...
After all, it's 25 BTC everyone's mining for, if done solo, as will be halved few months later...
It's luck, if you get lucky, you would hit it. If you don't, you would not hit a block to cover the electrical cost and it would be a waste of electricity.

Genesis block is the block that sets the stone for the blockchain. The only block is https://www.blocktrail.com/BTC/block/000000000019d6689c085ae165831e934ff763ae46a2a6c172b3f1b60a8ce26f.

i think with 50 tera is doable, the averag for a block is 4 month, not that bad imho, assuming the diff not increase too much, and by the look of the value it seems that this is the case

however, personally i would do solo only if the average was 1 month, so at present you need 200 tera

not much to report so far

"bestshare": 351714012.80246913, "bestever": 351714012}

4 day a month gamble for solo isnt a big deal now i just decide if i want to do 4 days straight , or only move my 50th to solo for sundays

would i be better off 4 days stright , or would it not matter

if you mine 1 day only a week, it will be a lot hard you know, but since it is luck(it's not exactly about luck) anyway you can try

dang thats pretty ballsy.

Big risk (if you dont hit you waste all that hash and power)

Big reward obviously if it hit a win

Good luck Smiley

thanks ive got a 50th rental thrown at it right now for the next 16 hours , going to start moving my farm over for the same time period for just over 100th

{"hashrate1m": "46.3T", "hashrate5m": "49.5T", "hashrate1hr": "18.6T", "hashrate1d": "2.33T", "hashrate7d": "536G", "lastupdate": 1453616081, "workers": 5, "shares": 83731595, "bestshare": 351714012.80246913, "bestever": 351714012}

Since you mentioned you have a 50TH farm, If I were you, I would mine on a pool with 10TH so you would have some earnings (around $530 a month) and then solo mine the rest (40TH) so in 4 any half months you hit a block and at the same time have some money to pay for expenses all through out.

ive thought about it , but its hard to move that much hashpower for that long with having to rely on luck as to if i would hit or not
