It always depends on Consensus Mechanism the list above is Proof of Work.
There is a coin that can Mine crypto using another consensus mechanism like Proof of Stake you generally mine a new coin by producing a block when you find a new block. Like DASH by Lock/stake some coins and you will add to the list of validator. and can earn money
If POS enables a form of mining, then why aren't we seeing other coins that use the POS consensus mechanism like BNB, Cardano, Solana in the minable coin lists? Because staking for rewards is not mining in technical terms POS is crap. I can assume that if a miner buys equipment in order to make his own node and receive a reward, this can be called mining. But if you give your coins to another service that does all the work for you or then deceives you, then this is no longer mining.

I think Nvidia wanted to be the next Apple and Apple was the only one that could pull off selling overpriced hardware and get away with it.
They assumed that people would overpay for the brand and felt confident that their sales wouldn’t slow. But this clearly isn’t the case. It doesn’t make sense charging this much for mid to high end GPUs. I remember back in 2013-2014 the top GPU was the r9 290 and it retailed at like $400 which was higher than in the past but not a huge jump. Now the top GPU is basically quadruple that.
But Nvidia doesn't make most of the graphics cards. The GPU is produced by its partners who buy Nvidia video chips. Then the company needs to change its policy and produce graphics cards on its own. But I do not think that the company earns a lot from the sale of video chips

Bitcoin mining has long ceased to be mining for beginners. Equipment is expensive, electricity is also expensive in many countries, and to make money on mining, you need to be a miner, with cheap electricity and be able to buy equipment at good prices. Large miners are constantly increasing their hashrate, so I would not waste time mining with several ASICs.

Hi to everybody. I am trying LolMiner with four AMD 580 Sapphire Nitro e one 1660 super
This is the command line I use to mine lolMiner.exe --algo ETCHASH --pool eu1-etc.ethermine.org:4444 --user .............worker --cclk 1100,1100,1100,-500,1100 --mclk 2140,2140,2090,+1040,2100
I don't know why LolMiner starts mining without considering core clock and memory clock values written in the command line, and so if I launch Afterburner all GPUs are shown with default values for core and memory clock
Why does this happen? Can anybody help me to solve this issue? Thanks
The instructions say that such settings depend on the version of the driver. As an old miner, I don’t like software that changes memory clock on the fly, so I upgrade the bios for the ethash or ethcash algorithm. And I don't use Windows. Try hive os or another system. 1 mining farm is always free.

(Nexa) performance improvements (mainly Turing, high-end Ampere, and Ada GPUs) https://github.com/rigelminer/rigel/releases/tag/1.3.8I am in no hurry to install the latest versions of miners and read the opinions of testers at the beginning. In the new version, the hashrate has increased, but the power consumption has also increased with the same settings. Consider this moment.

Core developers set date for Goerli testnet deployment of March 14, but mainnet — and staked ether withdrawals — will have to wait until April No firm date for the eventual mainnet hard fork has been set yet, but the downstream effects to the agreed timeline are likely to bump Shanghai’s final deployment to about a month afterwards, developers said. https://blockworks.co/news/ethereum-developers-push-back-shanghai?

A also have a lot of RX 470, RX 570, RX 5700, but I will not sell them now. Maybe when they are profitable again, the prices of these gpus will be a lot higher.
look at the ASIC Bitmain Antminer E9 Pro 3680 MH/s 2,200W https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5438028.0Video cards RX 470, RX 570 will probably no longer be profitable, or they will bring very little income. I recently sold it for 80-110 dollars for 8 GB. RX 5700 is a more modern video card, I would not sell it. well yeah, surely not for ethash, but cards can still be relevant for other algos. rvn, nexa and radiant have no asics so far as far as i know. still, I would get rid of those rx 470s/570s. I would keep the 5700s though Let's see the calculator https://hashrate.no/gpus/570With free electricity, you will earn $ 300 per month from 100 video cards, and you will spend 8-12 kilowatts per hour. With such opportunities, it is better to sell the GPU and buy asics.

I came across this question earlier today by a friend so I decided to ask here
You cannot, but if you want to accumulate the coin you need, then you use the application for algorithmic mining, for example Nicehash or Kryptex. You will receive a reward in bitcoins and therefore buy the desired coin. If you have inexpensive electricity, then you can see the profit and payback in the calculator https://hashrate.no/

I'm new to the forum, so I'm still exploring all the tech stuff out there. I stumbled across this REBTECH 8GPU-MB motherboard and it looks like a great option for miners.
If you are a beginner, I would advise you to study a simpler and more inexpensive solution and you will not break this motherboard by incorrectly connecting the riser in the pci-e x1 connector https://aliexpress.ru/popular/b75-motherboard-mining.html at $80 this is the perfect beginner kit for 12 GPU,and this motherboard has no problems with bios settings.

I pay $0.07cents USD per kw.
Very doubtful profit, considering that the having will be in about 13 months https://www.asicminervalue.com/miners/bitmain/antminer-s19j-pro-100thDo you have money to pay for mining and not sell bitcoins for several years? Do you have a guarantee that the cost of electricity will not increase? Even in my country prices are growing by 12-15% per year The cost of mining before halving is 14-20 thousand dollars, after halving the cost will be more expensive, and it’s not a bad decision to buy at 22 thousand dollars for bitcoin now, but use the using Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA) Strategy.

For sometime now, a friend of mine has being on YouTube, trying to find any legit site for mining btc. I have told him times without number that it will be hard to find such site but he still persist. So I'm asking today if there's any legit btc cloud mining platform so I can help my friend with?
How much money does your friend want to invest in cloud mining? If your friend wants to mine bitcoins, then let him get some video cards or a mining farm and learn how to use Nicehash. Video cards will mine the most profitable coins, and nicehash will pay rewards in bitcoins.
