Title: Today mining ETC or ETH
Post by: ezwinbitcoin on February 06, 2018, 11:49:05 AM
Hello guys.

I have checked today the price of ETH that dropped and the price of ETC.
I can mine both at 140 Mh/s.

I checked ROI, ETH is still a shorter than ETC but the chance to get a big profit would be better with ethereum classic no ?

There are coins that are more profitable to mine than ETH and ETC, do a little research and you just might find them ;).

I like the idea to mine ETH instead of ETC much better, I think ETH has more potential to regain its value and even grow more then ETC, after the market recovering of course!

Doesn't it depend on your card?
ETH looks solid with RX 580s

I feel there is a little more to it than ROI today.

imo this is the problem with profit calculators. They only look at what the current situation is. Now I know nobody can see into the future. If two weeks ago the calculation was made the ROI would be very different to now when the prices have dropped by 50% or so.

This is how I do it. I research across the sites and especially this site to find coins which look to have a good future. Then I test mine them for a while on one card. If that looks promising then I put my rigs to work on mining that coin.

I use my own spreadsheet to monitor 6 or 7 coins I am interested in and watch price and global hash rate - switching to the one I feel is best at that time.

Also I am holding some of the coins mined for when the price rises in the future, again you must be watching the markets and prices all the time and deciding if to sell or hold.

I have to admit that ETH is on my list and my fall back coin when there seems to be nothing better to mine.

BTW at the moment I am holding everything I have......

Also I mine only with Nvidia cards, ETH too....

All the best to you for a great future.

I'm mining ETH with my rx470 since more than a year and I think it's the best bet. As for ETC it may be a good idea if you want to accumulate to receive the Callisto airdrop which is in March.

Hi there, I have never mined ETH using CPU only GPU. - NO maybe that is an incorrect statement, when I was starting I did some experiments cpu mining and ETH may have been part of those.

I am sure that cpu mining ETH will not be profitable now, unless your machine is running anyway doing something else and so the electricity is being used whatever....

I mine ETH using Claymore miner, it is good, but takes a fee of 1% as a developer's fee. You can find it here:-https://github.com/nanopool/Claymore-Dual-Miner/releases

I mine at https://ethermine.org.

A good stable pool in my opinion.

Any more questions or not enough detail just ask.....

All the best!

I'm still mining Eth with my RX570 rig, even if it's not the most profitable coin I see it having the most success in the future.

Profit is made on volumes of extraction, it is better to extract that currency which in the end will be more quantity. With such power I would try to extract exp in dual mod.

I think better mine ETH as all  better then ETC , I think it will be much faster to grow than ETC because ETC is fork and ETH is original
