I was looking for a price on the Baikal and didn't see one, the antminer is attractive though, price - and I like the color 

I have been playing with the idea of mining something, now i am going to look at how I can mine litecoin (maybe some POWR) using a sustainable off grid energy source, most likely solar, I think coal has a place in the world but I think we can do better.

You have to have forks to eat profits.

Looks like you completed a contract on the Eth network, it does say "Success" on the explorer page.

Sooo... Mining is profitable? 

Transparancy are you still doing Photoshop?

Man there are threads already loaded with info on peoples choices of the 2018 hopefuls, you should look at those and then read into the coin that you think might do good, I bet anything that has to do with pot would be good for a 2018 profit.

I wonder where you get emails from, once you send coins or tokens to a blockchain address there is no way to reverse it like a paypal transaction or credit card transaction, unless you are able to fork the blockchain and use code to rectify the problem, I would suggest that anybody that loses a large amount of coins to an address mishap to contact the coin developers and ask them to fork the blockchain to return the money back to them, it can be done and has been done, I am sure that there are people familiar with Etherium that are aware of it having been done with its blockchain (that is why there is Etherium Classic), read up on it.

This here altcoin game is just like gambling, if you know how to count cards you will win at the tables in Vegas, if you know what the coins are for you will win at crypto.

Lol, I read the comments and read in between the lines of the do your own research post above, and I am not asking questions here, it was more like a snub hint to the obvious for the thread op, I know the coins to mine, the coins that are not worth mining, and I know there are not enough miners mining to keep the ledgers from failing and ultimately the coins dropping in price, I have done my basic research and know how to read through a thread bud.

If you think it was a large enough amount to get peoples attention maybe the devs could fork the coin for you to return your coins to you, kind of like the Etherium chain took when  there was a theft in the blockchain, post your transaction here and lets take a look at it on the block explorer to see if it warrants a fork or not.

Launch a coin, start a Announce thread and mine the hell out of it before you release the wallet to anyone, that is the way you can be the first miner.

soooo mining is profitable? 

I attempted to get an account here back in the early day's, after spending brain damaging time trying I gave up and have since wrote them off, there are better options now.

I am thinking I might pull some alt profits and buy a standalone rig that i could receive by Valentines day, what is your favorite setup?

After reviewing coinwars and noticing that hashrates were not very high I decided I better support the community that hashes my transactions.

Reading more into Faircoin I am surprised that there is not a lot of community presence here but plenty of updates on other sites and the official price of Faircoin is not the price it is trading at on Bittrex and makes me think somehow somewhere somebody is getting rich through Arbitrage by buying at Bittrex and selling to those that do not know of Bittrex, cool, wish it was me.

(but really where can I sell this coin for a 1:1 with the Euro?)

Let me answer this.....
 BCH is pretty much Bitcoins bitch, the same branding and the same community and arguably the same damn thing trying to achieve the same goals as Bitcoin and only has a place in the crypto era because it piggy backed into popularity by holding onto Poppa's coat tails, the early adopters of BTC will lead the vote in BCH and the majority of those person's have made it clear over the years that BTC should have some regulation and be incorporated into the well established trading network of the centralized world banking institutions, if BCH was standing on its own without BTC backing LTC would stand taller in the attempt to decentralize the wealth of the world.
The face and founder of LTC has just lately come forward and gave his thoughts on crypto and how he believes it will replace the decentralized dollar (which is really the strongest currency in the world), the supporters that have mined it and traded it for years at low prices have not been doing it only for fun but because they support a decentralized currency across borders that are not backing wars and political bull shit that central banks engage in.

There surely is room in the decentralized market for several transaction focused coins, yet BCH is entering into the centralized crypto realm as the holders push further and further into the worlds mainstream banking infrastructure

Bitcoin and BCH are hand in hand - no denying that - and litecoin is on a different level where it is not selling out just to make a higher value for itself, it is not even in the same race as BCH and is not trying to compete, the whole competition thing in crypto is a BTC thing, there is not a team pumping LTC like the BCH pumpers are doing with their coin, litecoin simply is believed in as being a coin that will not be controlled by governments and can be used anonymously without oversight.

The Shiba has lost some of its fun, when it first launched it was full of doges going to the moon and Wow, where did the fun go with Doge?
I think the Shiba accidentally grew up.

I would like to see some fun back in the Doge, or did its community grow up also?

Lots of info and the miner is right, put some work into it first and then ask some questions, the forum has a bunch of info and just learning the technical terms is going to be important - imagine someone tells you how to start mining and you have no clue what the hell they are talking about cause you don't know what a port is or how many you have.

I doubt he sold any yet, seems like when someone with a high level of exposure tweets out about a coin the coin climbs really high in price, i would buy more if Coinbase would just let me transfer more Mula.
