The only way to do treasure is by attacking ships(I think). There is no way a solo ship can take on a ship of 5.
So how would you play it by yourself if you can't take golds from others, and you are everyones easy prey?

There is treasure hunting. That's how big ships get treasure.
Plus there are quests as well, which I'm sure is another way to acquire treasure.
SegmentNext: One major pillar underneath Sea of Thieves is the shared world where players can come together on the high seas and plan their own adventures. With such heavy focus on cooperative gameplay, what is in store for players wanting to go solo? Lead Designer Mike Chapman has mentioned that opting to do so would reduce the overall experience. Can you give us more details on those limitations?
Mike Chapman: Players will be able to adventure on their own small ship, embarking on the same types of quests, taking advantage of emergent opportunities and progressing to the point where they begin to customize both their ship and character, just like players who may prefer to play in larger groups.
I fully expect players to play on the small ship for a whole host of reasons. Maybe their friends are offline, maybe they just want to sit back and relax on their own, maybe they want to play with one other friend or even several other friends on that small ship. The small ship is designed for small crews, including crews of one. The fact that it has one mast, fewer cannons and is easier to sail while alone just feels natural and intuitive. It can still be upgraded and customized and for many players it may well be their first step in Sea of Thieves. Whether they decide to ever play on larger ships with bigger crews is up to them.
