Title: What Coin to Mine now ethereum has gone?
Post by: greenuser on June 18, 2016, 08:14:52 AM
Ok so i am one of the lucky ones.  I moved all my eth to btc last weekend so i have not been caught up in this crash....  As a miner, I had been active on https://forum.ethereum.org  but got spooked and pulled the plug.   The whole forum was in a state of "group think" (those psychology classes at college sure paid off for me).
Well i did end up with 119 finney (0.119 eth) exposure but i'm gona call that a loss.  My gut told me it was a ponzi at the get-go but that's cool, i love a good ponzi!  Good pickings for those that quit early.  Not so good for those that reinvest their winnings. If you are going to have winners, you're gonna need losers, lots of them, that's life!  Well someone has to stump up the capital for the winners.  Anyway, ethereum mining will soon be history.

I am now looking for a new coin to GPU mine.  Monero is up on the traiding platforms, but acording to https://www.whattomine.com/
Feathercoin looks the best to mine right now. With ethereum in 2nd place.

What to mine next?  ideas?

miners! they don't care about goals, decentralization, changing the world. Could mine satancoin if it paid well.

I'm old and probably will not be around to see "the new world"

If you are considering mining Monero ask yourself one question:

Will competition from other miners be greater now or after the official GUI and RingCT is released?

The difficulty of mining Ethereum has dropped. So it is still profitable to mine it. Do you know any more profitable coins to mine>

All the more reason to point your power to a noble cause to make this part of your life meaningful.

maybe its time for me to get a new screenname.

But I think its overvalued. If it drops to $5 I would buy back in.

I am still looking for that noble cause in the world of crypto.
And my life has already been meaningful, well so far, so good.

@Azarl hmmmm.... Feathercoin. Are you mining it?  PM me if it's a secret!

Feathercoin is not as profitable as the Ethereum at the moment. For high electricity price miner, you will make a loss.
