Title: Mining Mintcoin worth it?
Post by: chesthing on February 27, 2014, 12:55:44 AM
Very impressed with Mintcoin's rise so far, but it is very new. Anyone have an opinion on long term value - that is, is it worth it to put my 5.0 mh/s on it for the remaining 2 weeks of mining? There are so many choices on what to mine right now it's a bit overwhelming. I've got two 2.5 mh/s miners, want to mine Noblecoin and Darkcoin, and would also like to keep one on Doge.
Wish I had about 20 mh/s to play with.

Yes I see Mintcoin has fallen way down from increased difficulty, but there are only 5 total weeks you can mine it with only 2 left. After that you have to buy it, was wanting opinions on long term value.

Somewhat profitable depending on difficulty as of a given time. Of course that fluctuates through the day.

Since Mintcoin has ignited interest in a fast PoW/PoS model, expect tons of clones to emerge in coming days and weeks.

There is Philosopherstone up since many months and nobody recognize it, now mintcoin comes and everybody talk about POW/POS . Mintcoin 20% interest p.a. , PHS 50% interest p.a.

If you want POS, go for Peercoin. The market there is long established so you cannot expect to get scammed. Also the developer is SunnyKing.

We were avg about 70k a day with 3 mhs
Switched back to waffle though now and just buy mint with the proceeds as it mines more profitable coins.
