Solo vs. Pool mining: Is it even worth pooling a small setup?
Hey everyone! Pretty new here and I've seen some posts earlier about solo farming and pool farming. My friends and I (party of 8 ) are quite interested in joining together and start solo farming. We're trying to figure out the best move for our setup.
One of our dilemmas, since we are just starting, is whether to buy brand new hardware or 2nd -hand? If anyone with experience can recommend Whatsminer VS Antminer?
One more thing, I know the math says pools are safer for consistent revenue, but if our daily payout is going to be microscopic anyway, does it make more sense to just solo mine and pray for a lucky block? If you started out small, did you stick to a pool or try your luck solo on something like Solo CKPool?
Would love to hear what actually worked for you. Appreciate yal feedbacks! 🎉
