Title: after owning several coins i think its time... mining! need help with equipment Post by: bobyman on January 02, 2014, 09:58:27 PM hi people
i want to get equipment for mining. not bitcoins, not litcoins (well , maybe litcoins ;) ). mainly new coins at their starting days. like doge coin was, and earthcoin and other alt coins. i own a macbook, and i understand its not the best for mining. what computer i need in order to mine with good speed and volume. can you recommend a good and efficient mining rig so i can mine ? not the most expensive but not the cheapest , a good and reliable that will be used only for mining. and also.. is it worth while? do you people really make money (not few dollars) from mining? thanks!

Title: Re: after owning several coins i think its time... mining! need help with equipment Post by: bobyman on January 02, 2014, 10:33:17 PM is 2.2 mhs system also good for litcoins and even bitcoins?
are there any coins i cant mine with that? does it takes a lot of electric? and bottom line. is it worth it? lets say doge coin at its starting days, or earthcoin at his starting days. how much coins per day could i mine with 2.2mhs ? thanks!

Clearly you have no idea what you even want or seem to understand how things work.are there any coins i cant mine with that? does it takes a lot of electric? and bottom line. is it worth it? lets say doge coin at its starting days, or earthcoin at his starting days. how much coins per day could i mine with 2.2mhs ? thanks! seriously dont risk that kind of money at this stage if you dont know nothing about mining! get a cheap used 1X 5850/5870 card which you can use on your current pc and learn that way!

Mining bitcoin https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=14.0 and this Mining altcoin https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=160.0 and at what point was mining bitcoin profitable, mining only becomes profitable after holding for a while. So mine early and hold just like all the bitcoin miners |
