I start the timeline at the beginning of 2018 and break this video up into 4 quarters (aligning with the 4 quarters of the year) and then at the end I express my thoughts on the future of cryptocurrency and especially crypto mining with a big focus on is GPU mining ever going to be profitable again?

I bought all the equipment I could find at a bargain price in 2018 taking a gamble on the future.  Hope it pays off, I think it will.

I never tried setting up my own mining rig last 2018 until now but maybe later this year I would try to build mine. During year 2018 I only invested in a very successful crypto mining company like #EliteMiningInc which are now using green energy to run their miners. It's fun to see every mining company growing despite the bear market.All in all I really glad I came to be part of cryoto mining industry, it's a life changer really.

I hope it works out for you :D

Best thing you did was a nice size build out so you’re competitive! My residential rates just can’t compete!

Mining is over for now, however,  i do think mining will become more attractive starting this year, mid year, around august, September again. When I say attractive I mean at least $1 per gpu again after electricity bill, roi will return to around 300 days and 2020 will be around $2 - $5 per gpu again.

Also do not sell any mined coins if after September, coin prices will jump 15 to 50 times.

What did you buy, I'm looking and debating between 1000 series and 2000 series.  Nadia 1000 series still ok power / hash wise but in a couple years the resale value on 1000 series will be pretty low.   But 2000 series  looks better for ProgPow.  Hard to spend money on anything right now but I have .049 power so I can run and be profitable for a while.

with such cheap power it doesnt matter what would you buy . If I were you I would buy everything that is 2nd hand and cheap till I run out of money. You are just printing money with such low power costs :)

470 and above if cheap
1060 6g and above if cheap

s9 = negative unless you give them to me

I splurged and bought 2 x SPx36 Spondoolies 540gh Dash.  They are impressive.

Im on dash.  When crypto takes off again I think these spondoolies unit will just own the market.  There is no way anyone is developing anything like this right now in this economy.
