Big companies were indeed mining XMR with ASICs for quite some time and bagged some nice profits doing so. Title: Re: Mining Monero? Post by: 2stout on May 13, 2018, 02:35:56 AM Just be careful though as Monero is the one that was forked to re-continue ASIC-resistance and Monero Original & Monero Classic are pro Asic/Asic friendly. The naming conventions are a bit deceptive though.
