121  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Be Careful Sharing The QR Code Of Your Wallet Too on: August 22, 2021, 12:45:35 PM
Had to confess I don't know about this before, I don't know that QR code can take over a wallet permanently just like inserting a private key, thanks for sharing OP, if someone asked me for my wallet QR code I would have send it thinking it's nada
122  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: Are Airdrops and Bounties worth the work? on: August 21, 2021, 04:55:34 PM
I promoted five different projects to get a good one that cover for the hassle on all the five projects, all other four failed this is what bounty hunters can't escape, not all projects you promoted will be very good but few good ones are still available, if you are determined and less lazy you will eventually stumble on a promising project

If BTC is the only crypto coin available I believe we will have less investors in crypto space today, people making big money from altcoins is why many people are so into altcoins, they know bitcoin is huge but bitcoin is high in price and they want another crypto coin that will be like BTC in future
124  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Is it reasonable to start a new GPU mining farm right when eth 2.0 is so close? on: August 21, 2021, 03:50:42 PM
Why risk ?
Its clear that you are late to the party.
Its clear also that when ETH will go POS most of the miners will stop.
And plenty of cards will be sold as second hands.

Is much easier and safer  to purchase 16 eth and run a node.



I've been trying to figure this out but I couldn't find the perfect answer, how can one make some money running node? What and what will someone have to get to set up a node? How is this better than mining
Node or masternode, in general, operates like a miner but instead of using hash power to find a block, node using an amount of coin it holds as the power to validate a block. Think both PoW and PoS are nearly the same but one using GPU's hash speed while the other using its own currency (ETH in this case) to stake. Spec to running a masternode usually don't require much.
I think for real, this time, ETH 2.0 is very close. To start a new GPU farm, mining ETH right now would be very risky.
That is if PoW algorithm is a goner for real, I don't believe that PoW algorithm is going away any time soon, they are just causing panic unnecessarily it's been since 2016 that ETH PoS is coming 😅😅
125  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Low performance using HiveOS on: August 20, 2021, 03:55:51 PM
Then why stick with hiveOS? If you are getting more hashrate/performance on windows OS then stick with windows OS, a YouTuber named Caleb who is now getting more popular everyday use T-rex on windows to get 26mh on those cards too and he never switched to hiveOS till now, use what works better for you
Windows has another problem, it is the increased power consumption due to the graphical interface.
The processor needs more power, more information is loaded into the memory of the video card.
From each farm on the hive, you save several tens of kilowatts per hour.
And Windows is more inconvenient for administering a large number of farms

I am not agree. I have tested the same rig with HiveOS and windows, and what should i say -> it uses the same 880 vs 880 -> with some tweaks i get better power consumption on windows (we speak about 10w less from the wall)

Windows needs much less energy and ressources than many people think.

You can administrate windows with awesomeminer very good. But i think we need more monitoring software for windows and local. I hate that all goes over a browser like HiveOs, minerstat and so on.
What GPU are you using to mine here? 3060? 3070? And also what coin you mining? I have all AMD cards and Nvidia minus only 3090 and hiveOS still safe me more power than windows OS, we can do a comparison if you can drop details of your rig
126  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: list of bounties good quality (new update 17_07_2021) on: August 20, 2021, 03:06:05 PM
Actually this is the first time I've seen yahoo promoting a scam project, not his fault though some new project are just too good to be suspected in any form until they eventually turn scam anyways, we move on anyways and this won't stop me from joining his bounties another time
Every big manager has managed some scam bounties. Yahoo is one of the best, experienced, reputable and professional campaign manager of this forum. I think he must have done research before taking the VoltNFT campaign. But a person's research can be wrong.  That's why we should do a little research on the project we promote.
The case with VoltNFT was different, the teams don't bag investors money and run away the project just happened to fail due to lack of fund raised, I heard they pay investors back their money and move on so bounty hunters got nothing, to me this isn't a scam at first I thought it was.
127  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Analysts announce the start of altcoin season on: August 20, 2021, 02:35:51 PM
I don't believe this but if eventually a new altcoin season starts then it will be the last, say goodbye to crypto bulls until few years later because the bearish season we've all been waiting for will take over in just two months or so just like December 2017 and January 2018, analysts can't be trusted and the only way to find out is wait and see
128  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Sapphire GPU are poorly built? Or just not rugged on: August 19, 2021, 12:03:37 PM
The only good thing about sapphire is the fan system, anything else is crap, friend bought a lot of sapphire gpus in 2016 and 88% died during those 5 years 2021 now, friend also bought a lot of asus, gigabyte and xfx and none died, only sapphire and most are nitro.

Avoid sapphire gpus, trust me, if the fan in the asus gigabyte or xfx die, you can always replace them with something else, is not hard. Not worth having sapphire gpus because of the fan system because they break 88% more than any other brand.
Actually last time I traveled down to China most mining farms I saw are using sapphire model of GPUs the most, maybe your friend bought those GPUs from miners who don't take much care of their GPUs? Or maybe your friend don't care much about the longetivy of the GPUs and start OC too much? I don't see anything wrong with sapphire
129  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Avoid expensive GPU on: August 19, 2021, 11:15:14 AM
I like and prefer higher end GPUs for mining because they are easier to maintain, more GPUs you have more headache in looking after them that's even after setting them up and running but I can't buy 3070s and 3080s at present price, maybe when they start selling for 700$ each then I will start buying, for now gtx1660s and two 3060/3070 are my last, waiting for what the next market trend is going to look like
130  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: 1GH in bear market on: August 19, 2021, 10:51:21 AM
I survived because i have very very cheap electricity. I remember videos when many miners turned off rigs because it was un profitable.
In this bear market 30mhs will not survive only 60mhs with 120watts has chance.
many rigs were 6gpu 180mhs it was giving 3-4$ a day Smiley
Sigh, why saying that 30Mh won't survive? If 60MH at 120watts can survive why not 30MH at 60watts? Two 30MH = 60MH @ 120watt, listen to yourself mate, free electricity is free electricity and cheap electricity is cheap electricity just stop bullying those with small GPUs lol
Make research very carefully!
Last bullrun was eth hashrate top was 295TH then down to 150TH
This bullrun top was 650TH
Hasrate increased twice more than last one. Last bear 30mhs survived because it was twice easy to mine. thats why im sayin this time you will need at least 50-60mhs gpu at 100watts to be  preapare if your electricity is high. like 10-20cent.
If you are saying 1660s is 60watts is not correct take watmeter and measure it. with best luck silicone you will read at least 80watts
It's always about the silicon indeed, I have two strange 1660s that take only 45watt when mining and from wall it's 65watt lol, it might sound very hard ri believe but it's true, my other 1660s take 55 to 65 watts but these two are out of this world
131  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Re: What crypto portfolio app has this? on: August 18, 2021, 02:14:32 PM
Biance has a price reminder function and profit and loss analysis.

When the price you set is reached, a bell will alert you.

The daily profit and loss will be calculated.
It depends on the you are using, on some phone you will have to go deep into notification settings or else you won't get the alert unless you have binance app running in your background, this is why iPhone is better
132  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Intel ARC GPUs incoming on: August 18, 2021, 01:00:35 PM
I hope the Intel Arc GPU leave up to all this hype, if their GPU can be as good as Nvidia and Radeon then we will have less scarcity of GPU when mining is more profitable
133  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Nigeria to launch its crypto currency after crypto ban on: August 18, 2021, 08:54:50 AM
CBDC won't have negative effect on crypto because they are just like USDC and USDT, they are still Fiat in digital form only, presently Nigeria is one of the biggest crypto adopters as per binance information, even CZ testified about this, let CBDC comes it won't make any difference
134  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Reducing 590 power consumption possible? on: August 17, 2021, 12:03:55 PM
Is there anyway to reduce power consumption of rx590 GPU down to rx580s range? Honestly I don't understand why 590 takes more power when mining I have one on ground that I removed due to high power consumption, 150watt for 29MH doesn't make sense to me
135  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Help regarding RX 590 on: August 17, 2021, 11:43:31 AM
You dont need mod bios. Which miner are you using?
In phoenix just add this -cclock 1150 -cvddc 900 -mclock 2100 -mvdcc 900 -mt 1 -vmr 30 with this it should give 30mhs
Later you can downvolt more than 900mv test until it crashes also u can use -mt 2 later for faster.
Batsonxl is this -mt 1 or 2 available for AMD cards like Rx Vega 56? If yes what is the mining software that works with such tweaking? I'm on hive OS anyway and I'm willing to try new tweaks out thanks
136  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Lost my tokens trying to transfer USDT from binance to exmarket on: August 17, 2021, 11:11:43 AM
You must be a long term user of exmarket exchange to have just sent out USDT from binance to the exchange, how come you don't check which USDT chain the exchange supports before sending out the coins?
137  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: which pool or wallet? since ethermine has upped cost of payouts. small miner. on: August 15, 2021, 09:32:38 AM
This is why pools with exchanges are better, binance pool and viaby can never go wrong, I still got my ETH sent to CoinEX exchange paying no dime for the transaction and also binance pool too, I can't find anything better than this honestly
138  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: What's the best AMD miner now on: August 15, 2021, 09:22:48 AM
TeamRed miner is the best for me, I tried SRBminer and NBminer then I lost significant amount of hashrate using RX Vega 56 cards, I instantly went back to team red miner..

Teamred         SRbminer       NBminer
    46MH               36MH               36MH with DAG error

you were doing something very wrong with SRBMiner. On ethash TRM isnt so much better.
I guess not everyone knows how to use srbminer very well with AMD GPUs, I knew that miner has some badass tweaking for AMD cards, if you got any just drop here so we can learn from you @doktor83
139  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: the fight between Binance and Cardano on: August 15, 2021, 08:27:57 AM
Of cos it's easier to choose binance over cardano when it comes to utilities the answer is so clearing, though cardano is still one of a kind altcoin and there is already news going around that they are bringing their own smart contract soon
140  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: ETH gas fee still high, London fork a failure? on: August 14, 2021, 09:33:57 AM
I don't think that ETH can cost 3200$ today if not for the London hard fork and this still doesn't affect miners much too which is all good and good, to me the London fork works as intended I advice you do more research to have better understanding about it
