2001  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: What are your plans for the coming year? on: January 01, 2023, 06:11:54 PM
In Russia, there are different tariffs for electricity for urban and rural residents. If you are in a village, then electricity is cheaper from 25 to 50%, but it depends on the region and on programs to help rural residents. If the house is registered for a pensioner with a disability, then this is another 30% subsidies. But the inspectors will have questions about why a pensioner spends 10,000-15000 kilowatts or more per month. Smiley Smiley
Real estate in the village is inexpensive, so the miners bought houses to install mining farms.

Russia has a large energy production capacity, either through oil or through gas. Therefore, it is normal for them to be able to present lower energy prices.
In addition, they have another very useful element for miners, which are low temperatures. This allows not having such high costs for cooling the equipment.

I think the cooling is a perfect element why miners there can run their farms without additional cooling costs or devices most of the time,the temperatures in winter are often below zero there.For the energy they should have much cheaper than 0.05 usd/eur/kw as they have a huge capacity in energy production,they were serving all of Europe before they decided it is time to just invade another independent country bordering them and from then Europe has put a lot of sanctions greatly reducing their relying on Russian energy,now that this happened for 2023 they should have energy price of 0.01-0.02 usd/eur/kw which should further incentive miners to even running their rigs when we are in the deepest of the crypto winter stage.
There are regions in Russia with a price of 0.01-0.02 USD/EUR/kW, such as the Irkutsk region. In large-scale production, electricity prices are cheaper due to large consumption. Prices for citizens are regulated by the regulations of the energy commission in each region. And the price does not depend on the consumption of 100 kilowatts or 15,000 kilowatts. The problem of many villages in Russia is that there are very old transformers and if the miners turn on their mining farm, then the voltage in the electrical network drops. Residents are complaining, power engineers are starting to look for miners. Smiley

It's a good decision too, keeping the cards to the next mining season.
In my opinion, If I had 0.05c electricity, I would mine ETC and RVN to hold until a possible bull run next years.

But you make me curious, your farm is not on your home?
In this case I agree with you, it's not worth the work to keep mining.

2003  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Anyone mining on RTX4090 already on: December 31, 2022, 10:04:30 AM

Do you check the total consumption of the computer from the wall? I think my mining farm of 5 Rx 5600 consumes less electricity.
You are doing very well, because you have one video card. When you build a mining farm of 5 such video cards, you will understand what mining on hot video cards is.

Of course, you are right when adding 5 or more video cards, the picture of consumption as well as the temperature regime will change dramatically, the multiplicative effect will certainly have its effect, but I was just interested in checking my card in different algorithms.
Would you like to get a better hashrate than what is available in calculators?
Today, on free electricity, this video card pays for itself in 6 years, and at a cost of 5 cents, about 12 years. This is not the most useless video card in mining, but in the near future I do not see prospects for its payback.

How do you find a password if it's 20-30 characters, letters and numbers and you don't have password hints?
You can spend a lot of time on enumeration of passwords and will not achieve results. Miners were offered such projects, but the reward is given only in case of success. But miners are not stupid people.

I think rx470-480-570-580 and the king rx5700 are still actual.i call them monsters of mining.intel needs also couple of monsters like that. I would love to see.
These video cards are only relevant if you have free electricity and are going to mine Ethereum forks. At flea markets, these video cards are now massively sold. But these video cards have a very fast payback on free electricity due to the low price.
2006  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: What are your plans for the coming year? on: December 30, 2022, 11:25:27 AM
These are not the highest prices in Europe that I have heard of. I have less than $0.05 due to the fact that the dollar has risen against the ruble again, but mining is unprofitable. If there is no cheap electricity in Europe, then many miners will sell their video cards.

With $0.05 kWh I think I would be mining with more cards right now  Cheesy
What coins would you mine and on what video cards? My old GTX1070 and GTX1080 graphics cards are on sale now, GeForce RTX 2070 will give me $5 profit per card per month. It is unprofitable, and if I have to go to the village to maintain the farm, then my profit will be very small. I decided to keep these graphics cards in good condition until next season.

Countries restrict miners from using electricity to mine bitcoin, but there are no such restrictions for data centers. If mining is going to bring in a good income, then data centers have good advantages for mining with lucrative contracts for the supply of electricity.

But in that case, it can compensate the miner to open a company as a Data Center, and rent a warehouse to place the mining machines and the respective data centers for mining.

It's just that using cloud services from Microsoft, Amazon, Google or others may be appealing but it's not recommended. Because these servers were not designed to support mass mining, and this could affect the performance of the equipment for other customers. This is not in the interest of these companies, as it will lower the level of quality they want to offer.
You can check my words even on your PC. Mining sometimes consumes less power and generates less heat than normal workloads such as rendering, AI calculations, or general archiving. Microsoft, Amazon are very cunning and want to rent a server to as many customers as possible.
2008  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Have anyone tried WhenToMine? on: December 30, 2022, 11:07:56 AM
What is required to use WhenToMine?
You need a supported smart plug. And a IFTTT account (free for 2 rigs) and 2,5€ per month for more than that. And that's it!

https://www.whentomine.io/

On the one hand, an interesting service that includes your mining farm at night, when the electricity discount reaches 50%, but I can do it without this service very easily. In my country, if I transmit monthly readings of 100 kilowatts a day rate and 3,000 kilowatts a night rate, this will cause unnecessary suspicion in the electricity company.There are 24 hours in a day, and my night rate is 8 hours. If mining is not profitable at the daily rate, then I will not mine at night either.
2009  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: K1 Pool not finding an ETF on: December 30, 2022, 10:58:18 AM
My point is that a pool with a small hashrate can stop being profitable at any time, because a couple of large miners will leave. This needs to be monitored. There are no such problems with a large pool, the profit is the same. As a result, you spend less time.

Yeah I started to notice that in ETF single mining,we were like 50 miners or more and now we are 25-27 but the good thing is that the ETF+ZIL is full of miners right now,more than 700 miners which for a pool with such a low hash rate is a good ratio I think.I am monitoring it daily and I saw that as you said there are a lot of much better pools,if I see a drastic drop in profit I will change this pool to another one like Ezil for example which I have mined before,but for the moment everything is going smoothly so I am just checking everyday what happens and see what to do.
Now the profit is so low that I'm too lazy to monitor the dashboard every day. Shitcoins are already very cheap, even though their mining is more expensive on many video cards. Maybe take a risk and invest for a few years?

I am doing some kind of that,taking risk,I mine 1-2 weeks ETHW,1-2 weeks ETHF,then I see some other shitcoins and try for one or two days just to meet the minimum payout,I am just stocking up on these,but mostly ETHW and ETHF because both these claim that they are here to substitute ETH since it moved to PoS so who knows what happens.Right now is stupid to mine ETC which the difficulty is over 1.5 P while the ETHF has 30 T and ETHW about over 200 T,the price of ETC is stupidly low at 15 dollars and you make like 0.014 ETC daily with 100 Mhsh so is absolutely not worthy that is why I am sticking with these two ETHW and ETHF for now.
What is the security of the EthereumFair(ETHF) coin with a hashrate of 2.18 Th/s? I do not believe that this coin will be used in the future. For more profit, it may be more profitable to mine other coins, and then change them to EthereumFair or EthereumPoW.

What are the electricity rates in Portugal?

Depending on the type of contract, the values are around 0.16~0.19€/kWh.


These are not the highest prices in Europe that I have heard of. I have less than $0.05 due to the fact that the dollar has risen against the ruble again, but mining is unprofitable. If there is no cheap electricity in Europe, then many miners will sell their video cards.

I have already purchased RTX 4090, so I don't really expect surprises in 2023 for myself in terms of acquiring future Nvidia cards, if only to expect the release of RTX 4090Ti, it was interesting to see what they would do.
I hope you bought it for games and not for earning 40 cents a day.

Of course, mainly for games in 4k resolution, but sometimes I just test rtx4090 in different coins, but mostly it works on ssc mining since you can get about $0.9 a day there since the number of miners is not large.
With such a profit, unfortunately, mining is not profitable on this video card.

Countries restrict miners from using electricity to mine bitcoin, but there are no such restrictions for data centers. If mining is going to bring in a good income, then data centers have good advantages for mining with lucrative contracts for the supply of electricity.

That is a good option but the data centers are geared toward mining farms,big ones and big ones can agree for such contracts,for home miners who may have thought remotely to try and rent such a service from the cloud providers is not an option from quite some time now from other providers and lately from Microsoft.Most likely even others like Line and Digital Ocean which come right after the big three ones will do such thing as for the moment I don't know that Digital Ocean is restricting such services so those who want to try can try from other providers but is not lucrative at all for small users.
I was interested in IT people who rent space for their servers in data centers. For ordinary users, standards for equipment have been established, this is only server equipment for installation in special PC racks. Buying such equipment for mining is not always profitable. And very old equipment may not be accepted.

Hackers have been able to steal NFTs like magic with a little-known OpenSea feature. It's the newest hack, and multiple millions in Apes have been lost to it already.

The OpenSea contract allows for "gasless sales," where users can sell NFTs by signing an unreadable message like the one above.
Here's the catch: you can also set up ⚠️private auctions with custom prices⚠️ with these unreadable signatures.

The developer claims that this makes BNB Chain “the largest layer 1 blockchain in the world.” However, blockchain data shows that the Bitcoin network is still larger than both BNB Chain and Ethereum.

According to Etherscan, Ethereum currently has over 217 million unique addresses. By contrast, BNB Chain has over 233 million unique addresses, according to BscScan. This implies that BNB Chain is larger than Ethereum as judged by this metric.

UPDATED Microsoft has quietly banned cryptocurrency mining from its online services, and says it did so to protect all customers of its clouds.

The Windows and Azure titan slipped the prohibition into an update of its Universal License Terms for Online Services that came into effect on December 1. That document covers any "Microsoft-hosted service to which Customer subscribes under a Microsoft volume licensing agreement," and on The Register's reading, mostly concerns itself with Azure.
