In the short term, of course, it's a probabilistic event - you could have periods of several days (even weeks!) with no earnings at all, as well as lucky bursts of finding several ones in a short time space. Joining a big pool would provide you a much more constant flow of money, though smaller in the long term. | |

But some may argue that it is hopeless, and maybe in that sense not enough, if there is so little to start with that it is not attractive for miners to join the pool. The hashrate given here is not completely negligible, around 0.15% of all current miners, but then again still little, so I'm tempted to call this a very valid, if maybe vague, especially since the headline question (is this enough hashrate?) and the 2 questions in the body (how do I do it?) are very different. | |
