Also mycryptobuddy.com, https://miningpoolhub.com/  
Not that hard to google these things.


You'll want RX470s for best overall value.

This rig above could mine eth and decred using claymore 8.1 software.

He was asking what sort of rig or ASIC you have. That depends on what coin to choose to mine. Some cards hash better on different coins and obviously ASICs are proprietary.
My advice is to learn what mining is and what grasp the actual concept first. It seems like you have no idea and want to get rich quick. The markets also play a large role in long term profitability.
I know what he want to say but as I said..."I want to start mining" so it means that I don't have anything and even I ask which coin I should choose to start mining.
I don't want to instantly richest person .
And yes I started to get information about mining I hope I will start mining soon .

You can wait until mid April then Baikal should have it's miners back in stock. If they don't increase in price (which they should, as they are great miners). That would be first to get. Very profitable, low electricty draw, quiet and easy to setup. Otherwise go for RX470 GPU rig. And mine ETH or ZEC.

I am mining a specific altcoin like LBC (Libry) the price has gone up from 0.00002xxxx btc to 0.00004620 btc. I am mining with weak cards , weak NVIDIA cards as this coin is specific to NVIDIA. NVIDIA is much better at this specific algorithm. One NVIDIA GTX 1060 can give you 160-170 MH/s hashrate which is equal to 41.45 LBC per day or 0.00191499 btc per day. The good thing is, this card only uses 100 watt when mining. The only downfall is if this algorithm LBC like altcoin goes down you are left with pretty much nothing as NVIDIA is not that good in mining other altcoins, only a few of them.

At first learn how to read, then how to do math, then you can start think about some mining.

You can try pool mining Musicoin (https://musicoin.org). I have a pool running for the same at http://neonpool.ddns.net

Download miner from here - https://github.com/Genoil/cpp-ethereum/blob/master/releases/ethminer-0.9.41-genoil-1.1.7.zip
To start miner, use: ethminer.exe --farm-recheck 200 -G -SP 1 -S neonpool.ddns.net:8008 -O <Your_Musicoin_Address>

It might be good enough to try mining some cryptonote coins like Monero.

if you have a good specs for sure those alts are very profitable to mine considering their value as of now, well if you just starting better to check
their own thread and reads some deep info about those project and learn from its community about mining the said coin, good luck to you OP.

If you are new to mining I suggest using a helpful tool such as Nicehash - it makes it allot less work to get set up and started if you don't know what you're doing exactly. :)  perhaps Minergate would be worth checking out too.

yes i am new in mining i dont know anything about mining ,thought to learn and start mining in my own house (not sure its profitable or not) as el;ectricity cost is very low here.And what is Nicehash?does they provide software or hardware for mining btw i will check that.
Yeah i am using Minergate as cpu mining but it needs to Turn ON PC always and i dont have much time to spend on PC

What would be a good place to start for option 2



I'm so sorry. Here is the information you need.
There are 2 routes to mining. I have listed them below.

Route 1 (Easy. No thinking involved):
Use your computer and go to https://minergate.com/ (https://minergate.com/).
Boom.
No thinking involved.
You started mining.
Congratulations.

Or.

Route 2 (Requires thinking):
Learn what a crypto currency is.
Learn about blockchain technology.
Learn about algorithms.
Learn how mining works for Proof-of-Work.
Learn how a GPU/CPU solves those algorithms.
Learn what GPU/GPU works best with the chosen algorithm.
Learn to fine tune and tweak your setup for faster hashing.
Mine.

You won't be a very good miner without knowing what mining is in the first place.
If you want to be profitable, go read on how markets work (I know, I know, more thinking...). Profitability changes all the time.
Education is important and if you aren't willing to educate yourself, BitcoinTalk can't save you.
