Working on a simple solominer that randomizes the nonce (so more like lottery than brute force). Is that crazy?
So competing against pro brute force miners is out of the question, especially if you want to be a solominer. For reference, you would be competing against mining pools that can do quintillions (1,000,000,000,000,000,000) hashes per second.
So I thought, can I just randomize the Nonces and play the lottery every now and then?
My question is, what are the nonce variables that pro hashers brute force? I know it's more than just the 32 bit Nonce.
Also is there mining hardware out there that would let me randomize the Nonces?
thank you!
