Post by: michaeljp64 on January 25, 2019, 04:42:07 AM

i have been looking at vps or a deciated server on the cheap with for 1 month or 3 months

i cant build a mining rig from home (Australia) cause the cost of leaving it running 24 /7 is expensive

cloud mining is out of the qyestion

Any advice thank you

This belongs in alt coins I have asked for it to be moved.

Mods will move it soon as I asked them to.



What do you want? To rent a rig?

Rent a server?

Dash and LTC don't give profit on GPUs a lot of time. You may use GTX1070  to mine Zcoin or RX580 cards for Ether mining at the moment. But there is no clear perspectives for the future for mining.

You can't make any money by mining with a VPS or virtual server. Those are usually CPU mining and even if you didn't get banned by your VPS because you used 100% CPU usage (which is forbidden since they are shared)  there are no profitable CPU coins out there.

Only way to make money these days is by having very cheap power, even 10 cents KwH barely generates a profit for most. I got most of my rigs and GPUs paid off but I keep them turned off because the profits are horrible  and my power costs are a little less than 10 cents kwh.

Maybe things will improve in the future.
