Title: Mining Ethereum?
Post by: core101 on March 29, 2016, 06:54:38 PM
Hey all ;)

Just would like to know what is your method of mining Ethereum? , I'm currently using genesis cloudmining however I do plan on getting my own hardware, any suggestions for that too?

Don't invest too much in "cloudmining",most of it is fake &/or you WILL never get ROI  ::)

I've looked into it myself & lost on Hashnest(BTC),bought in too high & the return daily was going to take 7-9 months to ROI.

But with diff rising & the value per GH dropping I saw no chance of ROI,so I sold & ate a 10% loss  :(

(It got my cash into BTC cheaper than the exchanges would have though,so there's that  ;D  )


Just buy some AMD 3 or 4gig (7950,7970,280,370,380) vid cards & mine Eth then sell the vid cards later  :)

I still had 4 PC's  left over from 2012 BTC mining so I'm on it already  8)

Thank you for the reply, the cloudmining was just an experiment which has gone well so far, Hrmm which software are you using to mine?
im learning with GETH at the moment

I'm using Win7 64 & this easy miner:

Not good with linux/Unbuntu so it's the only way I can mine  :D

Good info if you scan the last 50 pages or so  ;)

Do not use the cloud mining site. You take all the risks. The mining operators will have good income out of it.

well, genesis mining is best for cloud mining but you should build a rig and mine yourself. it is much more fun to do it and more profitable :)

Do you think you can make return of investment? Say, if you put in 100 Etherum into Genesis mining, can you get back 100 in one year?
