Title: Antminer L3 or Build an Ethereum rig
Post by: jeffrost on May 29, 2017, 09:03:35 AM
Recently came back to the mining scene once i heard the Eth price was reaching new highs. I initially stopped mining last year when eth was around the $10-14 mark. Still got my rig just aint bothered doing anything with it as i am sure the Dag file is way past the 3gb of the 280's ive got. So i was Considering getting the Antminer L3+, 504MH but from the looks of it next shipment is August into september. At the current difficulty and litecoin price, il be looking to make a ROI in two to three months depending on electricity prices.  However we all know what the crypto world is like, but i personally don't see litecoin dropping in price but ive only just gt back into the crypto world and do now know all that's happening.

I was also looking to get a 5 GPU eth rig set up, know how to do it and the rest just dont know which basket to put all my eggs in lol.

Or i could just buy eth & litecoin store it and watch the rise lol, what would you guys do ?

If you buy / build a mining rig, you can resell the parts after ROI, or even before with a loss,
if you buy an ASIC, and the ROI drops down, my guess is, you will make a bigger loss.

Buying your favorite alts directly might be the better investment, but Iīm unable to look into the future.

Do your own math and expectations, and donīt risk more, than you can effort to loose.
