Congrats!!! How much mining power do you have please? Im planning to start solo mining too, but im not sure if I can solo mine with 10-14 Th/s, so now im in mode of hording miners at least for 100 Th/s.

This week I accomplished what was supposed to be a lifelong goal of mining a block. Anyways, I have no Bitcoin friends, live in a small town in fly over country and even my wife doesn’t care but if there is anyplace that I can celebrate it is on Nostr. Tonight I am putting my kids to bed, pouring a glass of whiskey and going to sit on my front porch in the dark and pray. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for the time and effort you have poured into Ocean it is turning the tide! 😉

Started with an old Whatsminer M30 bought on marketplace for a garage heater. Quickly realized that it was not profitable unless running for heat. Moved to hosting a few miners with Hashlabs ($.06/kwh hosting + good prices for miners) and decided to pull equity in my real estate and go all in. Now run around 4000TH and just keep rolling proceeds to buy more (adding another 600TH next week). They have been awesome to work with and have helped me scale up profitably.
