I have begun migrating my farmer to a new server. So I setup a new full node on the new server and began copying plots over. This is how it looked after a few minutes:
55 years! Pretty crazy… but feels like I’ve just started all over again.
Just 1495 plots to copy.
I am only copying around 48TB this way, the rest will be just moving drives. I have 48TB of plots on a system with RAID moving to a system with IT mode JBOD.
You asked me this before, but it got lost in the convo so I never answered.
Some ppl hit a block with under 100 plots, I joined late, but hit a block with apx 250 plots iirc, certainly under 500.
There is literally no good answer to how many plots = block reward.
This is why I got in early ish.
If you keep building with the network as it grows, your earning ( hopefully ).
Any newcomers will see to get to our levels they need to spend ( those amounts will only get larger ( except for gains on storage costs , moore"s law n all that)) if you re-invest gains in hardware, your growing organically .
To me that is a sound ambition, the entry cost will only increase to get a worthwhile share of the network.
