First of all, thank you for the valuable information in that thread and of course, thank you for keeping the pool running

!

I am new to crypto currencies and read into the topic for a couple weeks now. For some reasons, I decided to join the game, buy some mining hardware and gamble solo for a block. And yes, I clearly understand this as gambling.

However, it seems hard to find actual (recent) information on solo mining, particularly risks involved.

So my question is:

Assuming I join solo.ckpool.org for solo mining, what risks are still present *except*

- the money I spend in hardware (including breakage)
- the money I spend in power

?

Are there any?

Any tips are greatly appreciated. Thank you

I did some rough calculations. it's a gambling, yes. taking into account risks and rewards, it is roughly 23 Powerball tickets a day per 1 TH/s.
