My 4TB HDD needs approx 7 days to fill and 1) the chain isn't updating while plotting and 2) I'm mining nothing.

I guess this coin has become already unprofitable for solo? Following this thread, semms that even pool mining is bad nowadays (plus, I won't provide my phone number for pool mining )

Might aswell look into STORJ with my capacity, but there you'll need good internet bandwith
