Are there people still trying to mine Ethereum with GPUs? ETH is only profitable for ASICs now. We GPU miners would be mining for brake even on a top3 coin which, in a bullrun, can go 4 or 5 times its current price. With 1070s you're basically mining at best for 0,60$ a day hopping to make that 2,40$ if ETH goes over 1000$ ! That is before electricity. Even Claymore hasn't updated his miner for ages.
If you're in need of a good algo which works nice on GPUs and a steady more-than-a-coin project behind it, look into HEX algo (XDNA coin). Already trading at Cryptopia and Crypto-Bridge but it's yet in position 875 based on market cap!

Where are all the XRP haters hiding nowadays? I haven't heard of them lately? Come on, won't you write how XRP is centralised and other nonsense like that? I have a few nice articles to share and I've been waiting to see a post of hate you know.... Like how Bitmain, which centralises the BTC's hashrate, is working behind the scene (a nice read here, the most interesting part is after the crystal tower image: https://medium.com/@salva.enkidu_89587/how-bitmain-indeed-mines-coins-in-secret-2ea179e7ab75) Or why XRP is more decentralised than other coins: https://ripple.com/insights/the-inherently-decentralized-nature-of-xrp-ledgerLike I've said again, it's one thing for a company to control a big amount of a coin (like Ripple) and another thing for a company to control the network's hashrate (like Bitmain). If you control a big amount of your own coin, then you'd do anything in your power to see it's price increase, both the company's and the investors' interest align. But if you control the hashrate, then things are more complicated and unpredictable, which I don't like.

Those artistic announcements are on a league of their own! Do you have a full time job for those graphics? If not, you will soon have to put this guy under 100% artistic jobs... it seems you'll keep having a lot of new collaborations and a lot of announcements to artisti fy!

Are new algo's still profitable to mine?
Read the post just above you maybe? hi peoples, what are you mining this days ?
Destiny 2 with a hashrate of 144 fps. It's bottle-necked by my monitor but hopefully I'll get my hands on an ultra-wide 200Hz one soon. Oh and the new algo called HEX. It was created by the developers of XDNA. The XDNA coin is still new but it's already traded in two big exchanges, Cryptopia and Crypto-Bridge. It's also offering 2% of the block's rewards for charity and since they had no ICO and about only 0.7% premine ( more info) I'm sure it'll fly sooner or later, if you don't mind mining & holding this coin is a good bet. Except if by profitable you mean "mine today + sell tomorrow = profit > power consumption" You'd need to risk a bit by holding... no bet to gain!

Any chance to allow the creation of new entries? I'd like to write a review for XDNA project but I didn't find it in the list... it's new so it makes sense but shouldn't the community be able to add new coins? Ofcourse some safety nets should exist to avoid spamming and trolling by people.

They explain the situation, be grateful they're transparent with the community. It's not like you're a developer, right? Because I am (a web developer though) and how easy it is for unexpected situations to arise and send your deadline flying! However, dear SONO team, read your posts more thoroughly before posting, you have some typos which make you look less professional. I quote, "Our two great developers has have put a lot of time" "Had our team been bigger then it would had have been possible" Seems like you're in bad terms with the word "have"!

You're indeed unlucky with your merits! I'm unlucky too but not as much as you! Your English might need a bit of improvement, but overall your quality is high enough to deserve some more merits. I don't have many sMerits but I found the post I liked most in your history and I gave you one! Keep it up! PS: Edit your application, you now have 512 merits!

I usually don't get myself into ICOs, but the only 2 times I invested in an ICO they were both scams... yet somehow I didn't lose a penny! lol The first one I invested in was before the last bullrun in crypto, I invested 100€ in the form of 500 XRP, the project never even started and the 500 XRP were worth 1000€ a month later!! Good thing the escrow behind the ICO run a refund and I got my XRP back. If they did a refund they were not really trying to scam anyone though. In the second one I invested the bare minimum of 40€, that one was a true scam! It was a payment platform using a debit card and after they opened their online beta platform and I checked their HTML code.... it was disgusting... I instantly sold every coin. Good thing I made 400€ through their signature bounty campaign! Today it's worth 1/10th of what I sold.

Two questions for the team,
1) What happened with the ARK collaboration? Did you scrap the idea of creating your own exchange system using the ARK ecosystem and you'll instead work through Bitfinex and other exchanges?
2) Are you planning to use any coin other than BTC and fiat as base? Personally I'm interested in the XRP as a base currency.

This PDF you linked is a bit... "too much technical talk"... but from what I get they're describing this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_XPoint which is around some time now (the PDF you shared is from a year ago). I know Intel is using this technology but it's veeeery expensive and I can't see it being used for mining anytime soon. I didn't know Micron has something similar too though, thanks for that! In any case, this is not an FPGA-specific feature. It's a technology; and since Micron is in collaboration with Nvidia, if this technology becomes mainstream then expect to see this kind of memory implemented it in RTX 2180ti or something.

Guys, we're being considered for free listing in a new exchange, let us help XDNA reach as high rank as possible: https://aiodex.com/vote/xdnaThe more the merrier as they say!

Better WAIT for their permission though? They might want to do some changes to it before it goes live.... though after posting it in a public forum like BTCT makes it pretty much "live" Just make sure you put the phrase "sneak peak" in your title, just like it is in the official post.

I can't wait for Twitter to unroot and delete all these bots... Like the fake guy who posted above me would have 4000 followers!

I don't think that bitcoin has dead. It's the rule of every cryptocurrency it will go up and down. But it doesn't mean that the crypto has died.
Just FYI, you don't have any merit because all of your posts are shitposts like the one above. Any campaign that accepts you into it will make the world a poorer and dumber place. This is a good example of how a merit requirement helps a campaign manager weed out garbage posters. People really shouldn't be applying when they don't have enough merits unless there's a compelling reason why they haven't earned those merits. In your case, there isn't. But aren't the people who shitpost usually the ones who will apply for a signature campaign without reading or understanding the requirements? At least the guy who you've quoted readed the requirements and understood he's not covering them. I believe he has potential to change 😜

Excellent! And so much suspense and adrenaline! It was like watching a spy movie
