I would suggest looking in to HEX. The beauty and simplicity of HEX is it's a finished product with 100% uptime. No admin keys, rug pulls or other nonsense. Just a guaranteed rate of return in HEX for the coins you stake. The current APY for stakers that lock up their HEX for an average length of 5.8 years is ~40%. The system is designed to reward people that do the right thing and HODL. The longer you stake your HEX, the bigger amount of T-Shares you lock up and rewards you get. HEX was the best performing Crypto asset this past year with a staggering 2700X return in USD value before staking. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RLtCxxebE2UNow is also a great time to get in to HEX. RH is launching a fork of Ethereum with complete system state called Pulsechain. All the ERC20's you hold in your ETH wallet will automatically be copied over to the new chain as Pulsechain versions of those coins, including your staked and liquid HEX. http://pulsechain.com

Dont know why my warning post about the Fake Github download link that was posted earlier also got deleted ! Maybe it was the Mitchell bot that deleted it , but anyway just watch out when some Github Links getting posted here from Users. Mostly they are fake links with Malware , the real links you can find on the first post in this Thread here.
If you quote the post that has the fake download, you should remove the link, so you're not spreading it and report the post.

I have 10,000$ I can risk on mining farm or rigs what is the fastest way to get ROI back with this money?is there any expert in this forum that can give me their own strategy if they have such money to risk on mining? I'm in for long term so I'm not in rush
Buy some ETH,BTC and hold it 10,000$ really doesn't count as a big investment in the mining world as of now, I mean you really cant buy a lot of "good" things , what is mining related hardware. The fastest and easiest way to get your ROI is buying coin, and sell when you feel you need your money. Maybe learn a little bit about trading coins instead of mining them. Mining hardware's price are crazy high now , and if coin price jumping again , hardware price going to jump also. Calculating ROI or whatever you calling it , its almost impossible . Mining difficulty always changing .... Read my topic HERE , about calculating "ROI" or use any online profit calculators ... PS: from 10,000$ you not going to build a mining farm , you can get 1 , maybe 2 good ASIC , or build one good 6-8GPU rig ... Mining hardware aren't crazy high now, remember china is selling off their GPUs as fast as possible, if you talk with GPU wholesalers in China you will be able to get 10 RX 580 8gb GPU for 3,450$ right now, that's about 300+ MH on ETH bro, you will be earning 20$ daily as at today and that's 600$ monthly, you get your money back in just 5 and half months Sometimes it's just better to have the equipment, after your ROI you can start mining for future holding, to me if you like adventure mining is way better but if you don't like tweaking and dealing with computer equipment then buy coins instead Mining will forever remain my hobby$350 per card for a RX580 8GB is no deal. Basically you are paying full retail for a 4 year old card run hard in a Chinese warehouse. MSRP was $249 and the last one I bought back in the 2018 peak, I paid $349. I'm still running my cards from back then and have ROI many times over. I refuse to pay 2-3X retail to update to newer cards. If you really want to get in to mining with the current pricing and availability, which is starting to improve, I would get a 6 card motherboard setup and add cards 1-2 at a time as I could get them for close to retail. You could also just buy the coins, but I don't think we've seen the bottom of the market yet, so I would DCA in slowly.

Your friend probably has the latest version 009C, with 8 capacitors, a shielded pci-e slot, dual six pin pci-e power connectors and a 4-pin molex. Probably overkill for most cards except for power hungry cards like the 3090 https://aliexpress.com/item/1005002649266184.html?

In my view the Crypto markets will have continued downward pressure for the foreseeable future. All the helicopter money being thrown out that has been propping up assets and reflecting in the repricing of goods and services like cars, gas and labor is starting to bring inflation concerns which may lead to deleveraging from risk. Google searches for inflation are now at their highest level. https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/google-searches-reveal-people-are-growing-very-worried-about-inflation-163908703.htmlMining hardware is still scarce and overpriced. Now is not the time to expand or start in my view. I would continue to run what you have as long as your profitable and keep staking for the next turn around.

China coming down on the large farms just makes it more decentralized and competitive for the smaller guys. As hardware in short supply for now, Smoke 'Em If You Got 'Em I say.

HEX has the most amazing chart in all of Crypto by a long shot. The beauty of HEX is it's a finished product with 100% uptime and completely trustless. Not many other projects can say that. Once you stake your HEX, you lock in your T-Share rate from 1 day to up to 15 years and the contract pays you out in HEX at the end of your term, just like a bank CD pays you interest. http://hex.wiki

Hi All, I am having issues with Phoenix miner. Just so you know, I am new to mining (so don't know anything), so I cannot really diagnose things on my own. SO: I use Betterhash (with most recent miner update installed), and my PC config is as follows: Windows 10 64bit running on AMD Ryzen 3 3200g (with integrated vega8 graphics card), 16GB DDR4 RAM, Asus GT710 graphics card (2GB virtual RAM). I am trying to run your miner on my GPU GT710. I used to run my OS from a SATA SSD 128GB, but have just upgraded to a M.2 NVME SSD 256GB (with 140GB free space) . I contacted the Betterhash team, and they told me to set my PC's VIRTUAL MEMORY to at least 32000 MB as Phoenix Miner needs this setting. They also told me to try to add the "-mcdag 1" parameter in BetterHash, in the Advanced Settings. This parameter disables GPU memory overclocking performed by Phoenix Miner during the DAG generation. This means DAG generation will be slower, but the hash rate will remain the same. All of the above was done, the PC restarted, but the ETHash Phoenix miner is stuck in the "starting position". When looking at what is going on the following error shows up: Seems to be a memory issue... DOes that mean I need to have more RAM on my PC for it to run? Or do I need to set the virtual memory to bigger values? Any suggestion on what I could do to get the miner running on my GT710 GPU? Thanks in advance! J Your GPU doesn't have enough VRAM to mine ETH. Because of the DAG size growth, you currently need at least a 5GB VRAM GPU to mine ETH and since Windows 10 reserves up to 30% of GPU VRAM, you really should use at least a 6GB VRAM GPU to mine ETH.

Those server style cases use high static pressure case fans that are as loud as ASIC's https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9mVg3XZ34EE&t=234sFor a 7 GPU farm, a box fan placed on high blowing out a window may be enough to vent the hot air from the room. A vent fan blowing out through an attic or directly out a window is more effective, but also louder. Ideally you want a fan with a high enough CFM rating to vent the room in about a minute.

Most high end quad-channel gaming motherboards should support 128GB or more memory. I have a 3960X Threadripper on a ASUS ROG Zenith II Extreme Alpha TRX40 mobo that supports up to 256GB of RAM. There is a slight speed increase from plotting to a RAM disk, but the main advantage is to limit wear and tear on SSD's which have a limited TBW lifespan. Especially for consumer drives.

May have spoke too soon. Farmed another block yesterday, about 3 weeks after my last. If you already have the space, it may be worth it to plot. Once the plots are made there is little maintenance/expense to keep them running and see what happens until official pools are out.

Totally agree. The net space has grown exponentially since launch. I started solo farming about a week after launch when the net space was in the 100's of PiB's and up till now I've only farmed two blocks with 73 TiB of plots. My current expected time to win a block is 3 months. Even though the net space growth has finally started to stabilize and there are new plotters that are much more efficient than the Chia wallet plotter, unless you have access to lots of unused storage space, Chia solo farming is probably not going to work out. Prices for large capacity HDD's have also gone up 30-50%, which is why I stopped plotting after running out of space.
