Vitalik Buterin is a very charismatic person. He contributed to the development of the project and personifies Ethereum. But this blockchain platform is currently very popular in the world and its development is almost impossible to stop.

I think that in November 2018, the bears will play a little with the course, and in December they will turn over into bulls. The beginning of 2019 is a bitcoin tenth anniversary and, probably, its rate will be adjusted to 10 thousand dollars.

Ravencoin is more profitable to mine on Nvidia video cards, which have a higher hashrate on this algorithm. In addition, if we take into account the total emission of Ravencoin (several billion coins), it is not very likely to believe in the growth of this coin. It seems to me that Ether is more profitable.

In order to avoid problems associated with the connection to the pool servers, you can add backup pool addresses in the miner settings. It is easy to do in Claymore miner by changing settings in file “pools”.

The calculators you use probably take into account the complexity of the network in different ways. More or less correct results shows Whattomine. If I were you, I would buy video cards like GTX1080Ti or good AMD RX590 (for example, from Sapphire), which will soon be on sale.

The most reasonable solution is to invest in several different reliable cryptocurrencies. I think it is worth considering bitcoin and Ether (supported by China), Ripple (supported by American and Japanese banks), and Monero as an independent decentralized coin.

All news about Bitcoin are very important because it is used only by a small number of people (about 4% of the population of developed countries). When Bitcoin will have capitalization ten times larger than it has now, it will not fluctuate so much in price and will become a stable world currency.

China understands the importance of developing innovative technologies. China has long become a space power and has all the latest technology in its own. Blockchain is one of these technologies, so China seeks to maximize its benefits for the development of its country.

Now Bitcoin capitalization steadily exceeds the level of $ 100 billion. At the same time, Bitcoin is legalized only in a few of the most advanced countries. With a further increase in its popularity and entry into circulation in more countries, its price will be inevitably significantly increased.

The price of Ether is very tied to bitcoin, because most of the trades are in a pair of Ether-Bitcoin. In early 2018, when Ether was very much in demand for ICO, it was bought mainly for fiat money and prices were not correlated to the same extent as it is now.

With such electricity prices, the only way to get a profit from mining on video cards will be using water-cooled models and using their heat for boilers of indirect heating or space heating.

If you are thinking of installing mining equipment at home, then don’t even think about ASICs. They are very noisy and cannot be used in rooms where people live. GPUs now give less profit, but they are more versatile.

There is a lot of information on the Internet that the first samples of these video cards are unreliable and fail. Probably because of this, they were recalled and we have a shortage in these video cards. They have no advantage for mining at this price over Pascal generation.

In addition to the ways of earning on cryptocurrencies listed by the author, you can make money writing articles about blockchain technologies, writing decentralized applications, and developing educational programs devoted to this topic. This is relevant at the moment and can be profitable for those who is expert in the matter.

If you don’t need money at the moment, it is better to diversify investments in different assets. In this case, most of altcoins, probably better to exchange on Bitcoins. The remaining altcoins are desirable to evaluate in terms of their real value and growth prospects.

Most altcoins were created during the pump of cryptocurrencies. They are not of great value to users, so they are unlikely to ever recover their value and capitalization. Rather they will lose even the existing price due to inflationary processes.
