90 USD daily per 1080ti?
Are you sure?

This is a scrypt coin. Not for gpu mining.

OP said:  Currently one Ti1080 net you about $90 USD daily

What is a scrypt coin? Getting a bit confused when OP states that you can mine it with 1080TI with 90$ profit per 24/7 h...

Like they say, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

Why is the payout so high?

Is this legit?

If a single card could produce over $2000 USD a month im pretty sure every miner in the world would be on it. Use a lil common sense here when people make these wild ass claims.

nothing but pure FUD!

I detect BS - I checked and you can do folding at home with your card through medicoin but no idea how you would get any tokens out of that...

Wow. Is it true? Someone already tried? 90 from one card? As it is very tempting everything.

Can't see how it could work out like that. Do you have any proof?

i tried this not true at all

This is as true as Bitconnect :)

I stopped Folding@home in Sept 2016 and last time I checked I had 7million points.
I think you guys owe me a Shit load of coins, and a hammer to hit myself over the head for wasting
7 years doing it instead of crypo  And I want my Coins ASAP. :'(

 

Folding and earning in the same sentence... ???

what sounds too good to be true....

If it looks like a scam, sounds like a scam, ...

Unfortunately people like this can openly market theirs scam without no consequence... Too bad really.

Nobody should enter try this shit, the scam is obvious.

For the early miner, the earning was $90 a day.   We gave out 2000 medic coins each day.  One person with a 1080ti got 30% of the pool's points.  So he got 600 medic coins a day.  At 15 cents per medic coin and his 600 medic coins got  $90.  Like everything else, early miners got the rewards because of low difficulty.

It is GPU mining with Folding at home now.  You can check out https://mediccoin.com/foldinghome-using-gpu/

So you say currently one would net you $90, when in reality one guy made that much for one day once because he was in before the public. Thats a pretty shady way to advertise.

Thank you for the clarification.

Now let me jump in my time machine and travel back in time.  ;D

Ok, how can we gain the coins, and where to sell?

Yes, when the pool did not have too many people the payout for 1 Ti1080 was $90 a day.  Today, probably $15 a day.  You can see the payout here http://oracledoc.com/

Ok, but can you make a simple steps to gain medic coin and where to sell?

First, you need a Medic Coin address.  You can download the medic coin wallet to get the address:  https://mediccoin.com/wallets/
Second, you need to join Folding at Home Medic Coin team:  https://mediccoin.com/foldinghome-using-gpu/
Third, check your earnings at http://oracledoc.com/
Fourth, you can keep the coins in your wallet and have it stakes and earn more coins or sell it through this exchange https://wallet.crypto-bridge.org/market/BRIDGE.MEDIC_BRIDGE.BTC

We are using Folding at Home (cpu and gpu only).  The scrypt PoW is done.  You can find out how to mine with your cpu and gpu at https://mediccoin.com/foldinghome-using-gpu/

That is how a pool work,  when you are one of the first miner the difficulty is low so you can earn easily $90 a day, but as the difficulty get harder then you earn less coins.  You can check out how to mine with your cpu and gpu at https://mediccoin.com/foldinghome-using-gpu/ and payouts at https://oracledoc.com

As long as you have a valid medic coin address, you can get payout.  You can check your payouts at https://oracledoc.com  and instructions to mine with medic coin team https://mediccoin.com/foldinghome-using-gpu/

When the pool difficulty is low, you get $90 per card.  now it is about $15 per card.  The pool difficulty is getting harder each day.  It is just like bitcoin 9 years ago, you could easily get thousands of bitcoins with a good gpu

You can find the payout each day here https://oracledoc.com .  People must understand that your earning is based on the difficulty of the pool.  Today the difficulty is 4x harder than three days ago so you earn less.  That is how it works on all mining.  If you had mined btc 10 years ago with a gpu, you could get thousands of coins but today you will not get anything with gpu.

How is this a scam?  If you are the early miners you get $90 a day that's true.  As the pool difficulty gets harder you get less because you are competing against other miners.  You can see the payouts at https://oracledoc.com  and instructions on how to mine https://mediccoin.com/foldinghome-using-gpu/

Okay, then it’s just clickbait if you’re still putting $90 “currently”, then. The past earnings could be anything but nobody cares about it, current earnings matter for mining. Putting garbage clickbait to get users shows a lot about your coin.

It was earning $90 currently when I posted the topic on February 28.  Currently means during the day of posting it was $90 a day.  It is like I said currently one bitcoin is $10,900.  Then a year later you read my thread and bitcoin a year later is $5000 and you faulted me for saying currently on my thread when in fact the thread was one year old.  So currently means at the time of posting.

@bitcoin9999, do you have an O/C tutorial for a 1080 Ti on folding @ home?

I was using 900 watts with my 12 card rig, that hardly seems alright :D

I don't overclock my cards.  12 cards rig should eat up a lot more energy than 900 watts.

Then correct your first post in the thread. It takes two seconds to do so, or don’t bump your year-old thread with outdated information. It’s not like you lose the ability to change things after a certain amount of time.

Why is this a scam?  You mine and the computational power that you use to help with protein folding go directly to Stanford University scientists to find a cure for diseases such as diabetes, congenital diseases, Alzheimer's, etc.  So Medic coin is not getting a dime from your mining.  We pay you on the amounts of credit that you mined according to https://oracledoc.com to reward you for doing good things for humanity.

What is scamming?  According to the definition, "Scamming is a fraudulent scheme performed by a dishonest individual, group, or company in an attempt obtain money or something else of value."  We gained nothing  when you decided to mine to help the scientists at Stanford University to find cure for diseases.  If they do find cure for diseases that so many people suffer, then that is good for humanity.  

Medic Coin rewards you for putting your GPU to good use.  The payout is on https://oracledoc.com  .  If you feel like the payout is not enough then don't mine.  But if you decided to mine to contribute to humanity then everybody will thank you.

I corrected after you mentioned it.  The thread time stamp and when it was posted is very clear to everyone, but I added the date just to make sure people know that they read a three-day-old thread.

In your first post you are claiming $90 a day in profits with a single 1080ti, and that statement if far for being true at the time of the post.

I can appreciate the principles behind what the project is trying to accomplish (I use to fold@home long ago), however opening a post with such a bold claims under current alt coin market conditions, that no one can not longer reproduce can be considered as false or ill advice for a personal benefit or agenda, and that my friend is a scam.

First, people with a single 1080Ti did earn $90 a day on 2/28/18 when the pool difficulty was very low.  Early birds get the worm.  Once the words got out that you can earn $90 a day mining for team 234020 then more mining power go to Folding at Home team 234020.  Once more people mining for Folding at Home team 234020, then the difficulty increased and earnings went down.  That is the true of all mining pool.  

Second, did you mine with Folding at Home team 234020 on 2/28/18 (from your statement "I use to fold@home long ago", most like you did not mine with F@H team 234020 on 2/28/18)?  If not then you can not say this is false because you were not a participant of team FAH 234020.

It's true however you are still failing to make that disclaimer part of your original post.

Honesty and transparency goes a long way, you could have attracted more people to your project if you have been more open and transparent from the start and disclose under what circumstances that statement was true (private or initial offering, etc) and not vaguely state how much someone can or will earn as you already stated its all unpredictable.

and the fact that still fail to fully edit your initial post with more details about of this, stills smells like a scam.

You also failing to explain the 30% premine and 10 days of private mining before public launch.

We put our adress of mediccoin on Folding home (according to tutorial), and then we leave mining...
And we receive daily in our wallet?

Each point on folding home is equal to 1 coin?
It's not clear the information on website

Yeah, I had the folding @home at max power, though.

Are there mining folding settings I should be aware of?

There is nothing to change.  If you had mined with FAH team 234020 with your 1080Ti on 2/28.18 you should earn $90 a day.  That is the fact.  I told people to check out https://oracledoc.com to see the payouts and decide.  It is transparent that we pay out 2000 medic coin a day (at the current market price it is equivalent to $326 a day) and how much you earn depends on your portion of the pool.  For example, if your computational power is 5% of the pool then you take 5% of $326 = $16 a day.  If your computational power is 1% then 1% of $326 = $3.26 a day.

Again, at the time of this post Medic Coin is at 0.00001499 which is 16 cents (according to stocks.exchange).  So if you are reading this three days later and the price changes, we are not at fault because cryptocurrency is volatile and risky. 

How do we process earnings
We send out payments to your Medic Coin address that you input in the Folding@Home browser.  Payments are sent out everyday.  You can check your folding status by going to http://folding.stanford.edu/stats/team/234020 and also https://oracledoc.com and search for your Medic Coin address.

We allocated 2000 Medic Coins each day to be divided among the donors.  To calculate the amount of Medic Coins earned, you do the following maths:

 (Your Credits / Team's Total Credits) * 2000 Medic Coin.  For example, your credit is 1000 and the team's total credit is 10,000.  You apply the formula (1,000/ 10,000) * 2000 = 200 Medic Coins.  Congratulations !  You just earned 200 Medic Coins.

You can find the above information at https://mediccoin.com/foldinghome/

I put 6 1080Ti on this. Lets see that $540 a day role in........

That was three days ago.  It is impossible to get $540 a day since the maximum payout is $326 a day.  You can only get a portion of the $326.  For example, if your 6 1080 Ti gives you 10% of the computational credits of the pool then 10% of $326 which equals to $32.6

You can join our FAH on Discord https://discord.gg/EX2hBzY

I feel like messing with this coin and put a good 30 1080Tis on this.  8)

Edit: Gotta ask the wife if she wants to give up mining for MEDcoins  ;D ;D

If you do that then it is good for the scientists at Stanford University.  They will say thank you.  The maximum you can earn daily is $326 ( 2000 Medic Coin).  

As you can see the payouts on https://oracledoc.com, you are going to earn a portion of 2000 Medic Coins

Yeah I was doing Foldining Coin for a while until Cryto become more profitable. For a few months back in June / July I was getting $500 a card per month. Than everyone else realized Folding made better money and the coins dried up :/

Edit: I backed off. Only gonna put one rig on this project until this dries up also.

Edit 2: How can I become a masternode, any tutorial on this? I got a Dual Xeon laying around as a file server that can be used.

You can become a Medic Coin masternode with 199,999 medic coin.  The masternode instructions on google search https://cryptomat.com/setup-medic-coin-masternode-vps/

cкoлькo я бyдy пoлyчaть c 11 кapт 1050 ti?

The Medic Coin website needs to be updated.  I checked this out when you posted it originally and figured this was a scam simply because of this

"Medic Coin utilizes both scrypt and CPU/GPU mining with proof of work, proof of stake, and masternodes. In the beginning, you can use your ASIC miners, GPU, or CPU to mine Medic Coin. Then Folding@Home project starts on June of 2018."



Also on the pool, I assume credit score = folding points?

And if even ONE big folder starts hitting up your coin, your profitability will drop to near nothing.

Less than 4 million PPD is not a big folder, I was pulling more like 20 million the last month I folded, and I've added quite a few Nvidia GPUs since then.
Last time I checked the top folder was pulling over 70 million PPD.

I count it as poor design that you force folks to fold on your team - that destroys any possibility of merge folding with CureCoin (conflicting team requirements) or FoldingCoin (conflicting coin address requirements).

Well if you follow the Curecoin logic (which I admit I never quite understood), the more folding power, the more valuable the coin should be.  The Curecoin people would also come unglued if another project suddenly started merged folding with fldc.  Its been awhile since I've checked prices but I seem to remember at some people last year the fldc earnings were more than the cure earnings.  I admit the original title was a little bombastic but I think OP's heart is in the right place.  Curecoin has languished for years and their dev is the top folder.  Not to say that Medic Coin is better or worse, but nice to see an alternative at least.

p.s.  I think its ironic that another folding coin suffers from the same exact problem as curecoin;  A shitty website and confusing pool instructions!

Well, not really.

The one guy who had a 1080 Ti folding that day made $90.

If you had been mining with yours, you'd have made maybe 60?.

And with a full rig? A tiny bit more.







Now, if we could speak about folding right now (setting up the cards as well aw fah client), that would be sweet...

Thank you for letting us know.  We will fix the website.

We are updating our website and instructions.  We also have live support in our Discord channel to help you with your folding at home project.  The Discord channel is https://discord.gg/EX2hBzY

The user asked:  How much will I get with 11 cards of 1050 Ti?  

Assumption:  You are asking for today 3/2/18 earning.  Earning tomorrow will be different
Assumption:  Each of your 1050 Ti produces 160,000 credits   https://greenfoldingathome.com/
Assumption:  Medic price is at 16 cents

Solve for

The first thing to find out is the total credits for team 234020 on 3/2/2018 from http://oracledoc.com .  It shows the total credits = 23230536

Second find out how many credits does 11 1050 Ti contribute:   11 x 160,000 credits = 1,760,000

so the new total credits = 23230536 + 1760000 = 24990536

Your portion is 1760000/ 24990536 =0.07

Your total MEDIC reward is 0.07 *2000 = 140 Medic  which is about 140 x $0.16 = $22.4 a day



How much would I earn on 3/2/2018 if I have 1 1080 Ti card?

Assumption:  You are asking for today 3/2/18 earning.  Earning tomorrow will be different
Assumption:  1 1080 Ti card gives you 952,500 from https://foldingforum.org/viewtopic.php?f=38&t=30256

Solve for

The first thing to find out is the total credits for team 234020 on 3/2/2018 from http://oracledoc.com .  It shows the total credits = 23230536

Second find out how many credits does your card 1080 Ti gives you:  952,500  according to the assumption above

so the new total credits = 23230536 + 952,500  = 24183036

Your portion is 952500  / 24183036 =0.039

Your total MEDIC reward is 0.039 *2000 = 78 Medic  which is about 78 x $0.16 = $12.48 a day for your 1080Ti on 3/2/18

So the earning of $12.48 a day for one 1080 Ti on 3/2/18 is for you to judge.

I want to clarify that we do not make any profits from Folding at Home.  If a big folder with 100 million credits a day participate in Folding at Home team 234020 then Stanford University FAH still gets 100 million credits.  However, if you have one 1080 Ti then your portion of earning will be much less because now you are only a little portion of the pool.

Well I did some reading and it seems like the project is doom to fail. Instead of piggy backing on curecoin, the Mediccoin is forcing people to mine a shitcoin (very good coin) in the hopes that in a few years it will be worth something. The key to mass adoption is have exchange support and a good wallet. This has neither. I found a critical flaw in the wallet. You cannot see your private key so you are SOL if the wallet isn't backed up. Even those backup files don't work half the time. NO private key - NO GO!


Cons-

None existent exchange support.
No Private Key (Wallet)
Must choose between Curecoin AND FDCL or This.....

I'm sorry but this coin is extremely flawed. Time to switch back to something I can ACTUALLY SELL!

Medic Coin is currently listed on 4 exchanges:

1.  Crypto-bridge https://wallet.crypto-bridge.org/market/BRIDGE.MEDIC_BRIDGE.BTC
2.  Btc-Alpha https://btc-alpha.com/exchange/MEDIC_BTC/
3.  Stocks.exchange https://stocks.exchange/trade/MEDIC/BTC
4.  crypto-hub https://cryptohub.online/market/MEDIC/

The wallet has a private key by using dumpprivkey <MedicCoinaddress>  .  If you are a newbie and don't know how to use this we can teach you.  

We have physicians and engineers and computer programmers on the team.  That is a big plus as most coins are anonymous.  Please visit Medic Coin page to learn more https://mediccoin.com/

You can join our discord and learn about Medic Coin https://discord.gg/EX2hBzY

We are working on merge mining with Folding Coin.  We are not forcing anyone to mine Medic Coin.  You do your research and mine or not is up to you as there are thousands of other coins you can mine.  Medic Coin also has PoS and masternodes so you can earn Medic Coins that way too.

The motto for Medic Coin is "Do good things and make life better".

Pardon my french, but you are a fucking idiot.  Why would any new coin piggyback on another one?  Of course if you must choose between this or another coin.  This is no different than literally mining anything.  Curecoin is on only 2 exchanges, as it FLDC.  If you want to compare wallets, Curecoin's didn't even have a feature to display your staking status until 6 months ago.  Don't let the door hit you on the way out.

I don't get anywhere near the folding power I should.

Is a slow CPU a limiting factor (running 12x 1080 TI)? What CPU would you advise?

You should get atleast an intel i5

nsummy ah the lonesome fanboy. Just because they got a nice website, doesn't mean the FAQs are useful lol. I looked for the private key, couldn't find it.

Anyways for folding you want to dedicate 1 CPU core per video card or you'll have some very low results. Plus you cannot use the USB risers. Those are 1x. You need at least 4x PCIE 2.0 to get clear of the bandwidth issues. Even so, with a 1080Ti 4X PCIE 2.0 isn't enough, 3.0 is though. So unless you have a X79 or X99 with 7 full 16x slots (running in 8x mode) you are actually not using the video cards anywhere close to the full potential. When you say 12 cards, that instantly says mining board and all at 1x.


1080Ti running in 1x yields around 500K PPD, 4x (2.0) 800K, Full speed 1.3Million.

Edit: Looks like I made 32.69 coins for an hour of folding yesterday. If anyone want them post your address. Otherwise they will be gone forever.

Ballpark half of last year the Foldingcoin income was more than the Curecoin income - part of that was Curecoin went though it's first "halfing" somewhere in that year.
I never understood the "more folding = more coin value" BS out of Vorshalk either.
When he decided to bring hig HUGE farm online, it ticked off a lot of long-time folders and put a serious HURT on the profitability of folding.

Because it offers a LOT MORE SUPPORT FOR FOLDING if this coin could be cooperative with the LONG STANDING Curecoin and Foldincoin initiatives - which have supported "merge folding" for years.
A LOT of coins support "merge mining" - reference DOGE for the best-known example.

Since the STATED objective of all 3 coins is to "support Folding@Home", it is a lot more logical for all of them to WORK TOGETHER as opposed to your "of course" MUST CHOOSE BETWEEN them idiocy as being able to get all *3* for folding work gives a lot more incentive for more folks to DO folding.


You CAN use USB risers in folding, but higher-end cards suffer a significant performance hit if you do so, ballpark 25-30% in some brief testing I've done on my Aorus GTX 1080 ti cards.
If you were seeing 500k on one, you either had a "pain" work unit type or there was something else limiting the card, even on a USB riser I normally see more like 800-900k on most work units (vs 1.2M AND UP on most work units on non-riser setups).
The hit is less on lower end cards, but still noticeable.

On the positive side, a riser-type rig is a LOT easier to keep cool, and USB risers are INFINITELY easier to work with than multiple "16x ribbon" type risers.

One REAL CPU core per GPU is definitely needed - "hyper-threaded" cores need not apply they can't keep up with higher-end cards and WILL throttle your performance badly.
More than one core per GPU does not help, as the folding client isn't coded to use more than one CPU core per "thread" and it runs one "thread" per GPU core.
If you DO have spare cores, you can use those for other stuff though - like folding on them or XMR mining.
Even REAL cores are starting to get marginal sometimes - I was doing some testing once on a G-series Pentium (G4560 or G4600 forget which offhand) and a single 1080 ti was loading one "real" core on that to over 90% average, and I THINK I was taking a small PPD hit on the GPU even so.

For 12 1080 ti cards in a rig, 12+ real core Threadripper or 12+ real core recent Intel server CPU are the only viable options for full PPD - but you're going to be impacted by USB risers as well even WITH enough CPU power.

Let us know when you manage to get listed on a MAJOR exchange - I've never even heard OF any of those exchanges before now.

Not "zero" like the post you were replying said, but pretty bloody close.


It shouldn't be hard to set up ability to merge fold with Curecoin - just kill the "need to be on OUR team" requirement.
Merge-folding with Foldingcoin is going to be a lot tougher, since you both require wallet address as part of your name.

I'm far from a fanboy and I even stated their website is terrible with confusing information.  For what its worth, so is Curecoin's and taking the prize for the most confusing is foldingcoin.

At the end of the day does it matter what team you are folding on?  Stanford gets the benefit regardless.  And to play the Devil's Advocate, Curecoin could have easily set up the same system without a team requirement.   Personally if its a new coin I don't care how big the exchange is as long as there is a way to sell my earnings.  btc-alpha is small time but they have been around for a few years.

Thanks

You should check Crypto-bridge out.

I've been folding on and off 10 years. CPU with a AM64, than waaaay back on a 9600 GSO (old folders remember this being a beast of a card for performance ratio). I've done testing with many cards because I did find a fold forum post on folding forums that someone testing this waay back in 2010 that the OP said he/she found no difference. This was true at the time because the cards were not powerful enough to saturate the full bandwidth on even 4x PICE 2.0. Things have changed a lot in the last few years. I'm looking at my 1070Tis right now and they using 56% bandwidth of PCIE 3.0 8X or roughly 4.421 GB/s if you do the math on it. PCIE 3.0 1x is 984.6 MB/s. That means a single 1070Ti is using 4.49 times the bandwidth of 1x 3.0. Now that is not saying you will lose 75% when on USB risers. Its project dependent but with 1x I was around 330K and with a 8x slot (not fully used) it is reporting 768K PPD on average. Same card, same computer, same project.

Edit: Also don't forget folding really does need a CPU core per card or it will suffer more than a USB riser would do to it. Test it out. Put you CPU to full and watch you card PPD drop to nothing.

Food for thought....

Edit 2: Oh I also forget that any USB cannot exceed 500MB/s. Thunderbolt can, USB cannot, so really even if its reporting being in a 3.0 Slot, its more like 1x 2.0.

Thanks for giving us a try.  Your research on the coin was wrong about the exchanges and private key.  We take constructive criticisms very seriously and try to improve on them, but putting wrong information out there that could hurt the coin and thousand of investors we do not appreciate.  Have a good day.

I am sorry for talking smack about your coin. Been seeing a lot of FUD around the internet and it rubs off I guess. Best of luck with your project, I just can't get on board without a easy way to get the private key and have bigger exchanges on-board. I have to pay the power bill somehow ya know.

Also The only REAL BIG MAJOR criticism (besides everything I already said) I have is why the need for 199K coins to create a masternode. That is 2.23 BTC (32K) just to be a node (did the math wrong, its $30). ZENCash requires 42 and other even less. BTW the wallet say 500 when you select create just so you are aware.

Also if you want to get into a private discussion of the flaws of this coin I would be happy to. I am fully aware of how much effort it takes to even make a bad coin. It is clear that a lot of time and effort was put into this project, but it still needs TLC and starting a thread by saying a single card makes $90 is misleading to say the least.

Well said!

Our developers came up with a way to merge mining with Folding Coin.  We are tweaking it right now.

Just in case  ;D

High quality USB CABLES can easily exceed that, when not used for actual USB service.

Don't confuse the "usage spec" with the "hardware spec", like folks using "PCI-E 6 pin connections" to power ASIC miners sometimes do.

Hmm good point. I just assumed it was converting it into a USB signal just because unlike a ribbon cable, it doesn't have enough wires to accommodate all the pins.

Damn whole time I didn't check the actual prices on medic coin. its not 16cent a coin like the op said, its 1.46c (0.00000064 BTC) lol. I have 146 coins and its worth like...well $2.13. Lesson learned....NEVER take anything at face value.

I don't know what your intention is but spreading false information is not appreciated.  We are trading on https://stocks.exchange/trade/MEDIC/BTC  and https://wallet.crypto-bridge.org/market/BRIDGE.MEDIC_BRIDGE.BTC   Currently we are trading at 0.00001394 BTC which is about 15 cents

Odd that 11 out of your 18 posts are about this coin....  Also please let me know where I can buy it for .00000064.  I'll buy it all and sell it on another exchange for 10x profit!

Its not my fault that Coin Market Cap lists it that way https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/mediccoin/ . Fix it before blaming me for posting whats listed. OR if that isn't your coin, use a name that isn't taken.

Edit: Also any progress on merging FoldingCoin with this?

I see.  Thanks for letting us know.  Will let CMC know.

If you are using coinmarketcap without any other sources you have a lot to learn.

 .000010xx buy - still a lot more than .00000064 but not 15 cents per coin, more like 10-11.

Quoting SELL orders to MINERS is arguably a falsehood, many aren't patient enough or can't WAIT for a sell order to actually go through.

You should be using the sell amount instead as this is what you can use to calculate profits.

at the time of this post medic coin is selling for 0.00001059 BTC ~ 0.11 USD per coin.

Seems legit and I feel for the topic poster for receiving so much flak even after removing that $90 a day claim.

Was wondering if there are any updates as to how much a single 1080ti can earn, as of today. Can't find any calculators for this folding@home or medic coin gig.

You can check your earnings with this link http://oracledoc.com/  .    Choose today's date and match your card's credits (PPD) to the payout information on the site to compare.

We are working on the ability to add Folding Coin.  We don't have any partnerships with Folding Coin.  Once the script is done, you have the option to add Medic Coin.

Folding is a different beast, so calculating this is almost a daily best guess.  Generally a gtx 1080 ti will get about a million folding points per day (also known as ppd).  The problem with calculating what you will make is that its impossible to see the amount of points everyone is generating in real time (think of 1 point = 1 hash).  Imagine mining a coin and you only saw the total hashrate once a day, and that is when they paid.

This site is will give you a good idea of the daily points for the coin:  https://folding.extremeoverclocking.com/team_summary.php?s=&t=234020
This will give you a ballpark idea of your PPD for every graphics card:  https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1vcVoSVtamcoGj5sFfvKF_XlvuviWWveJIg_iZ8U2bf0/pub?output=html

2000 coins a day are paid out, so take your ppd divided by total ppd then multiple by 2000.

It took me forever to get the folding at home app working right with my mixed rig (4 rx580, 1060, 970 and 2 1050ti's) as of right now I am doing ~2 million PPD. Yesterday before getting it running right I earned about 900k points which was 42 coins or about 5.38$. A 1080ti should be a hair more than that at 1 million PPD with a little overclock.

Unless you are expecting it to appreciate a lot it is looking pretty close to where I would be making more elsewhere at the moment but am gonna let it run for a few days since it took a lot of tinkering to get decent numbers.

for max performance, nvidia cards need 1 whole cpu core to themselves. Any mid to high range card also needs to be in a real 16x slot. A 1060 on a 1 to 16x riser only got 125k points per day, switching it to a 16x slot pushed that to 380k a day.. I had to move a couple of cards to a different pc as the pcie bandwidth was being overwhelmed.

A 1080 ti on a good Folding-centric build is a consistent 1 million or so average PPD card - varies a lot with the model, good-cooling high-boost-clock models like the Gigabyte Aorus do better and might average closer to 1.1 million.
Type of work unit varies this a LOT - some work units might drop you down to more like 600-700k, others are "happy" units you might see 1.5M on - but the 1 million is a good basic AVERAGE figure as a general rule.

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1vcVoSVtamcoGj5sFfvKF_XlvuviWWveJIg_iZ8U2bf0/pub?output=html# is a useful reference, but take it with a pound or so of salt - folks that post to this list are generally pushing overclock as hard as their card will handle with stability and often are "cherry-picking" units, YOUR figures will probably be somewhat lower.
The list DOES give some good indication of variance by work unit type.

It is NOT considered acceptable by Stanford to regularly "drop" low-performance units - and you tend to end up killing your overall daily PPD anyway unless you do it in the first couple minutes that a particular unit starts running.

It IS possible to "block" work-unit issuing IP addresses that regularly give out "low performance" units - but you tend to lose a LOT of time trying to get any unit at ALL if you do this, generally not worth the effort as the main assignment server won't notice you have that "block" in place and tends to want to send you back to the SAME place after the handshake fails - and that handshake fail tends to be a SLOW process as it was first set up back when a lot or most folks still used DIAL-UP for Internet access.

You need to avoid risers, use a good CPU etc. It's not really suited to a *mining* rig.

You can use risers - if you don't mind your PPD dropping A LOT.
Bad idea though, as it wastes a lot of the potential of the card - expecially higher-end GOOD folding cards like the GTX 1070 and up.

You also want a motherboard with at least 8 PCI-E lanes to the "16x slots" for best performance - 4 x PCI-E lanes has a noticeable but not huge performance hit on a 1070 or 1080 and a significant one on a 1080 ti.

https://forums.evga.com/Guide-to-BuildInstallSetup-your-own-MultiGPU-Linux-Folding-Rig-m2682398.aspx offers a pretty good guide to building a good folding rig.

Well I finally got around to trading my MEDIC coins on stock.exchange. Unfortunately its been 24hrs and it still hasn't shown up. I was smart and only sent a few :). Being the only exchange for the coins doesn't look good. I suggest people look elsewhere to unload these coins. PM me if you want to do a personal trade.

Have you already contact their support? Surfing to that exchanger do already give me the doubt

Checking out recent buy orders as of this writing it do only have Total: 0.265247 BTC and having 189196.0 MEDIC sell orders not showing a good volume.

If i do have a 1080 GPU then i wont waste up on mining this one.

Yeah I submitted a ticket. No response yet. I doubled checked it was the right address and it went through. has 13000 confirms so far.

When I was folding for MedicCoin I sent coins there a few times.  Almost every time I had to open up a ticket because they didn't show up.  No clue if it just took forever or if the ticket did anything.  I'm not a heavy user of stocks.exchange but I have had to do this with most coins I have sent there, and I think a lot of other people do to.  Any time I send coins there now I don't even bother to check the deposit for at least a day.

Took a few days and it was resolved. Much quicker than Polo that took 6 months. Coverted to Eth and walked away. MedicCoin has a reaaaaaallly long way to go considering Folding and Curecoin is triple the earnings for the same about of PPD.
