Is Solo Bitcoin Mining a Scam or the Ultimate Lottery Ticket? Bitaxe Odds, Solar Mining & More

Is solo Bitcoin mining from home a hidden scam, or just the ultimate lottery ticket? In this roundtable episode of The Everyday Miner Podcast, the host sits down with two fellow Bitcoin mining YouTubers to talk about why they solo mine in the first place and what keeps them coming back.

They get into whether adding more hashrate really improves your odds, and whether a $65 Bitaxe Gamma 601 is enough to ever hit a block. They also ask each other the questions every solo miner wonders about: does anyone they know actually hit a solo block, and if they did, would they even tell anyone? The conversation also covers when there might be too many solo miners chasing the same reward.

They also talk about why solo mining on solar is such a big win for home miners, and how each of them balances pool mining and solo mining in 2026. It’s a candid, fun conversation for anyone who’s ever wondered if their little solo miner is worth keeping plugged in.
