There had been a dry spell, with no blocks mined on solo.CKPool.org since April, but earlier in the year solo miners were popping off!

At current difficulty, it would take a solo miner with 270 TH/s seventeen long years to solve a block. This miner took the chance at going it alone (versus mining with a pool), and the bet paid off!!

Chance per block: 1 in 878,301
Chance per day: 1 in 6,099
Time estimate: 17 years

I implore anyone who is considering mining solo to realistically weight up their chances before doing so. This site will give you an accurate view of the probabilities http://solochance.com
