I don't like eth I am not a fan of eth. but I see more upside to it 3k is possible.


LOL. 1 ETH = 1pc 3090 is coming...

Enjoy my fellow miners.

Prepare for hibernation (store money) for the the coming bear market, get other streams of income with crypto earnings.



Well yeah it will happen.  I can see it topping 3k.

11467  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Can't get ETH or MTP to run with 1050 TI on: January 19, 2021, 10:31:43 PM
Guys when I look at my calculator on Betterhash it looks like I should be getting a lot more profit from ETH or MTP, but when I run the benchmark it seems like I can't get those miners to run, so it does Kawpow/Ravencoin which is costing me a lot.  Is there anything I can do to get those other miners to work, and/or would I make more by mining ETH or MTP without Betterhash?  Here's what the calculation says on their website:


Algorithm   Hashrate   Monthly Income   Monthly BTC Income   Monthly USD Income
XZC - MTP (CCMiner)   1.87 MH/s   10.15748291 XZC   0.00101981 BTC   40.41 USD
ETH - Ethash (Phoenix)   11.11 MH/s   0.02582434 ETH   0.00078723 BTC   31.20 USD
RVN - KawPow (NBMiner)   5.95 MH/s   833.95382957 RVN   0.00034192 BTC   13.55 USD



Thanks
You can still mine Ethereum with that gtx1050ti using lolminer, if Ethereum is all you got on your mind then try different type of miners cos I'm sure the results will be different

Are you doing this currently or just saying this becaise 1050ti is 4gb.  Ive got several and they havent mined eth in a few weeks.  I can get all the amd 4gb cards to run currently but not the 1050ti...

my only 4gb card is a 1050ti it does not mine eth on any program it does do kawpow

Yeah I found 3 locations with power deals that are good for mining.

So I have to keep track of a lot of shit.

if mining topic is really that restricted, then it’s no different on other forums either.
Not the mining section but the Mod of Mining section is too restricted I guess. People rarely posting on Mining section and almost 80% of the threads even in the first page locked. If the thread was posted in the wrong section then better moved it to the service section rather than simply trashing it.

No hard feeling just my 2 cents. Smiley

Some days I get very frustrated posting in that section.

I just did a review and had 4 spacer posts to lead the review off.  I wanted to keep certain info as stand alone.

The mod merged my deliberately and legally separated posts. Into 1 post.

I normally don't mention much about it, but it makes posting there less joyful than it used to be.

I post a lot more than 50000 even though it reads 34,000 +

 I deleted a lot of old posts.

On top of that, i loved *pple for the quality of their products and stable operating systems.
This changed 2015-ish a lot, after which i decided to move back to windoze again. didn't regret it, apart from some delicate pieces of VST(i) plugins, of which no windows ports were available. The fact that ableton live runs on both system made the decision easier as well (originally came from cubase on x86).

I never loved Apple because of the walled garden attitude, long before they became a fashion brand. The stability of the OS is greatly helped by their all in-house hardware. Windoze, while being far from perfect, works whatever you throw at it. And they really care for backwards compatibility. This I really like. Apple's approach to backwards compatibility is "Well dear, you're still using THAT? It's from 2020, you penniless bum!"

BTW, which VST(i)s have you found hard to replace? I felt a similar pain when they bought out CamelAudio and gardenwalled Alchemy, which used to be my favorite softsynth.


This 100% is why I will never, ever purchase another Apple IOS product - the 'walled garden' approach.

These devices are seriously limited and that's not a good thing in any way.

Warren Buffett said "Price is what you pay, but value is what you get."

I've had colleagues that were long time Apple iPhone users, but as the price has crept up in the last few years, they started noticing that the actual "value" (return) they were getting was starting to stall out.

When many of them switched over to Pixels or Samsungs, they were surprised to find value parity, and in some areas value superiority in either the hardware or software.

The cult of Apple can be so strong as to convince their diehard users that everything outside the walled garden is complete crap.

Fuck apple, as I type on my 2012 mac mini  (last good model mac mining they made)

At least I never owned an iPhone, just  sammies and moto's

6gb- yes

4gb- no

I don't even see 6 gb, do they make a 1650 6gb?  Thanks

Was not clear enough

don't buy 4gb cards they are no good.

6gb and bigger are good.

I have zero idea if 1650 comes in any size other than 4gb,

 but if you want to mine eth  with one it needs to be a 6 gb card.

I checked zotac they only make 4gb 1650 cards.  this may be true for all 1650 cards.

I checked evga only 4gb cards for the 1650

Let's discuss the environmental cost of bitcoin. Because despite all the push for sustainable and green investment in the tech sector, there's a giant smoldering Chernobyl sitting at the heart of Silicon Valley which a lot of investors would prefer you remain quiet about.

...

TLDR on bitcoin economics: It's a pyramid-shaped investment scheme backed by the collective delusion that value can created out of nothing by convincing greater fools to buy it after you do.

...

Stephen, this is really bad, how can I help change this?

* Don't buy bitcoins.
* Tell friends not to buy bitcoins.
* Consider ethics of holding dirty companies ($MSTR, $SI, $SQ, $PYPL, Coinbase) in your portfolio.
* ... and products (funds, ETFs, etc) with crypto exposure.

/fin

...

As a final aside, this is very politically solvable. In the next administration Biden could stop the Bitcoin Waste Problem with the stroke of a pen.

Banning US persons from trading these digital investment contracts is well within the powers of executive branch.

/done


This smells of just another neckbearded IT guy that probably knew about Bitcoin many years ago but sat on the sidelines and did nothing, so now he's bitter.



he is a shining example of why and how  free speech can be used to do evil.

The reality is Mining BTC with solar is viable and solar can be greatly expanded  due to the profits you get from mining BTC.

It is sad when a person spout lies under the guise of free speech.

Incentives for large solar arrays can be done and most mining can be handled that way.

Instead of banning BTC like the fool says he should be saying incentives must be done to make more solar arrays.
11475  Other / Off-topic / Re: Tax on graphics cards? on: January 19, 2021, 03:49:15 PM
Right now

best buy
newegg
amazon
bhphoto
ebay
provantage
evga

are basically sold out or 50% markups.

and the tarriff rise adds to it.

eth goes up to about 1400 usd making mining it very very very lucrative.

I mine eth and covert to btc.
A good card say a nvidia 3080 makes over six usd a day.

the old msrp was 700-800  at six a day it is paid off in under 135 days.

it has a real 3 year warranty.

the next sixty days will be revealing as to card demand for mining.

ETH is topping out again. 1389 a coin

https://etherscan.io/chart/etherprice

and eth diff is over


332 th


https://etherscan.io/chart/hashrate



Asics be growing.  I was looking at VOSK's thread here:

Topic: Ethereum mining is DOOMED if this happens... EIP-1559

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5309561.0


I realize maybe he has it wrong and yeah the fees drop a lot. Say 140% is viabtc and it drops to 98%.


lowest is 96.5%.


that looks bad every 140 you earned drops to 98, but if coins got past 3k

all problems are solved.  It is possible we see growth in hash rate due to asics.

say 332 to 500 a 50% jump

it is possible we see fees drop from 140% to say 100% at viabtc and we still are better off since eth goes to 3k a coin.

say I make 1400 a. month. the fee drop makes me at 1000 a month. the network diff makes me  667 a month. coins go to 3k I am doing 1440 a month.

I don't like eth I am not a fan of eth. but I see more upside to it 3k is possible.

11477  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: 400Mhs at 885W at the wall on: January 19, 2021, 03:09:58 PM
Complete true more Mhs more profit with the actual profit of eth, but also temps of memory and GPU are lower... and you can have with this safe of Watts another card... or in some hot ambient could help.

At the end is another option of mining... it was a good play of running and optimization.

Of course the other prove was the stability, in my case with lolaminer in last HiveOS this rig play is working incredibly...
This is a good decision to get several presets for different conditions. When profit will decrease - you can reconfigure rig in 2 minutes. But right now - only maximize MH. Smiley

But right now - only safely maximize MH.


fixed it for you.
11478  Economy / Speculation / Re: When The Inevitable Happens With The Dump - What Will Bitcoin Be Worth? on: January 19, 2021, 02:47:44 PM
I agree with you it does seem highly unlikely that the price of Bitcoin will go back down to 4 digits but there has to be some sort of correction at some stage and we have not seen a massive dump and sell-off just yet so until that happens we will not know.

~$20,000 or near that will be the price of Bitcoin if the dump will happen anytime soon.

Many are already expecting for Bitcoin to make a big correction after its movement this past month. Many are just waiting for it to happen so that they can enter at a lower price. Right now, Bitcoin is doing a sideways pattern at the $30,000-$40,000 price but I'm expecting for a correction to the supports will happen soon.

One thing is for sure though, I don't see Bitcoin's price going back to 4 digits again or at the $10,000 price again. Congrats to those who bought at these prices Smiley.

a drop from 41k to 31k is not big enough?

it is close to 30%


You need to look at it from other levels.

In Dec 2017 when coins touched 20k
In July 2019 when coins got over 13k

In Jan 2021 when coins are 36 to 41k

Which was the best month for a miner?

Dec 2017

the second best month

Was July 2019

and Jan 2021 is the third best month but very soon to become better than July of 2019

So if and when we get to 45-50k with current difficulty we are better off than July 2019 as a miner

To match Dec 2017 as a miner we need to be in the 70-80k price at the current difficulty.


so correction is not needed from the mining viewpoint just yet.

I would also argue every country is printing money  so on that alone tack on 25% boost to BTC
and of course Norway is investing in BTC for each and every citizen.  1 or 2 bucks each but it is a start.
Miami wants to put $$ into BTC for its pension plans.
Other institutions are looking to drop money into BTC

We  could have  along way to go to top out and then correct.
11479  Bitcoin / Hardware / Re: S19pro review. now open. on: January 19, 2021, 01:54:03 PM
well bottom line is either they suck as a new chip design or the firmware is terrible.

in 30 minutes I am going to have a 50 38 hour meter reading. And since the garage is now a very warm room over 92f I suspect this will show 3.333 kwatts x 50 hour.

The measurement will be  more accurate. Since it is done over 50 hours.

I seem to get a steady 110-111 th number.

If indeed the chip is new and different and if the firmware is not crippling it that would be very bad news for bitmain as it sucks.

When compared to the s17pro chip which did 25 watts a th with vnish firmware.

38 hour readings

723.53
845.65

122.12/38 = 3.213 k- watts  this is decent number and gui says  110.0 real 111.7 avg.

pool reads 111.2 for 24 hour read.

here is a you tube video
