The hacker behind the theft of more than $447 million of crypto from the crypto exchange FTX has been again spotted moving their ill-gotten funds. Accoding to Etherscan data, between 4:11 to 4:17 pm UTC on November 21, the attacker moved a total of 180,000 Ether across 12 newly created wallets — each receiving 15,000 ETH. The total amount moved totaled $199.3 million at current prices. https://cointelegraph.com/news/on-the-move-ftx-hacker-splits-nearly-200m-in-eth-across-12-wallets |

It's all about utility. There are so many coins on the market, but only a few provide real use cases to the world. HDD-mineable coins are no different. I've never heard about MASS until you've mentioned it now. I'm going to have to do a little research on it to see if it's worth it. Still, no other coin compares with Chia as it's the most profitable HDD coin to mine right now (if I'm not mistaken). Some would say HDD-mineable coins are more decentralized than ASIC-mineable coins, but that depends on how the network is structured. I think HDD mining could pose a higher risk of centralization as data centers usually have a large number of HDDs at their disposal. Imagine if Google, or even Amazon takes control of an HDD-mineable coin with their huge storage space. It would've been a complete disaster. I don't think they will be able to manage to acquire large numbers of ASICs, as such devices are usually more expensive than ordinary HDDs. The industry is just starting to blossom, so I'm hopeful developers would come up with a solution to make HDD mining more decentralized. That is if the hype goes back up again.  Will Google or Amazon abandon their obligations to partners in order to mine the CНIA coin? If the majority of CHIA miners belong to Google or Amazon, then this will become known and investors will sell this coin, which will result in big losses for large companies. |

Hello,
```
I want to post here but if legit devs are being banned without any explanation or info about it, it is kinda discouraging xD
See how developers design their themes with miners. Team Black Miner (Ethereum POW ETC Vertcoin Ravencoin Zilliqa) https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5358334.0 Miners are afraid to download new files, so it is better to integrate your product into mining operating systems, such as Hive OS. |

Pickminer v1.0.0 NVIDIA & Ravencoin mining softwarePickminer is an all-in-one NVIDIA mining software currently on Windows and Linux. You can enjoy your mining by creating templates, setting up their overclocking, and monitoring your ongoing mining thanks to an easy-to-use user interface. Currently on Ravencoin, it is planned to add more Proof of Work cryptocurrencies, mining OS and AMD compatibility later. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5422586.0The developer fee is currently fixed at 1.5% for Ravencoin. The miner automatically mines for developers 2 minutes every 133 minutes. Pickminer is not yet compatible with AMD cards. It is planned to be AMD-friendly in the upcoming months. https://pickminer.com/discover#faq-sectionThis is a new miner, check all files for viruses yourself and better look for reviews before downloading.
This is just information about the new miner

hi all, since my SPX36 had some units that tended to overheat I thought I'd open it and replace the thermal paste which by now had become dry and faulty.
I used 0.5mm thermal pads as what was left of the old ones didn't seem to have any thicker. Today I put it into operation and not with a little surprise I notice that all the units go beyond 90° as if I had made the situation worse.
Have you decided to use thermal pads instead of thermal paste? What is the thermal conductivity of your thermal pads? If there was thermal paste with thermal pads, then you need to do the same, but if there were thermal pads, then you need to use the same thickness. I usually measure it from the edge of the thermal pad that is not under pressure. |

If you look at the graphs, then the hash rate has fallen for many coins. Industrial mining on video cards cannot be profitable now due to the many additional costs, but small miners who have no expenses other than paying for electricity continue their favorite pastime.

Example rtx 3080
100MHASH $0.24 ETC
+100MHASH $0.1845 ZIL
+Kaspa $0.17
------------------------------
You get $0.595 /day by tripplemining instead of $0.24 mining ETC only.
edit: checked the live prices today
a great example, only better to add a payback period. The price of the video card rtx 3080 is 1000-1200 dollars, and the profit per month 18-20 dollars. 1000/20=50 months, which is more than 4 years. Mining can only be done if you have video cards and cheap electricity. What? 1000 to 1200 dollar? For this price i get 3090 or 3090ti. Sorry but i pay around 650$ for used 3080 and new around 800$. But true, the payback time is to long. I've been looking at new graphics cards, although prices vary by country. 650/20=32,5 months I believe that the video card should pay off while its warranty is valid. If the warranty is over, then these are additional unnecessary risks. |

You will be surprised if i will tell you even rx470 4gb plays games well enough.nvidia is smart made high price so discount will look very attractive later
Well enough - is very relative. If you're not a graphics fanatic, then a $60 graphics card would be a good buy. But I would buy 1070 or 1080 which have better performance in modern games but cost a little more. |

Miners is there something gamers don't like about RX vega graphic units? I've sold 50% of all my graphic cards and I've never sell one of my vega 56, the moment I made mention of having Vega they will say no.
Is there any issue affecting Vega gpu when gaming on a PC? Why do gamers hate this graphic cards so much? If this go on I will have to keep mining with the cards until no coin supports the gpu anymore. Or you have another better idea?
This is a very old video card, so gamers know that these video cards have been used in mining in 90% of cases. Same story with RX480 and similar video cards. You can either sell these video cards very cheaply or keep mining, but you need cheap electricity. I have put up for sale my full gear of Rx 570/580 as they are not relevant anymore for mining and in fact they were not from quite some time but I used them to mine ETC until the merge of ETH that moved to PoS. I get a lot of phone calls as I have put them up for sale in a local market place here and I am selling them for 60-80 EUR each,of course I tell the persons who call me that are mostly gamers in need of a cheap card that they have been used for mining but not to worry as they still run perfectly fine and I have sold a lot of them so far without problems.I believe the same to be with Vegas but those are somewhat more expensive than the Rx 4/5 series. 60-80 EUR  This is very cheap, even with delivery from China it will be more expensive. In my country, these video cards cost 70-100 euros. For 100 euros you can sell for a long time, for 70 euros you can sell quickly, but I decided not to sell. I don't really care if they are cheap,I have milked them from end of 2016 or 2017,don't remember that well so they have been put to good use in these 5-6 years that I put them to mining Ethereum at full speed 100% 24/7/365 and they have given me a nice reward in the year of 2021 when I decided to cash out the profit from mining made by such cards in 2018 and 2019 when no one was mining except a very few persons,me being one of them despite at a loss. So whatever money I get from these cards is just 100% net profit for me that is why they are going this cheap. If the video card has paid for itself several dozen times, then it must be saved for your children I have the same question to sell or not. If mining starts to be profitable, then these video cards will pay off a few more times or they can be sold for more. But I don't want to sell for 60 euros. |

Last update from the official site https://pinkchain.net/ : Pinkchain is closed and the old team is no more. But since it's decentralized blockchain, anyone can takeover and lead Pinkchain. We hope all the best to the new team who will takeover Pinkchain.One Ethereum fork scammed! The project worked for 1 month. |

chia have a lot of fork coin but not have any coin can make price higher than chia
Most of these forks are dead or there are few miners. These projects allowed miners to earn additional profit by multi-mining several coins on the same plots, but this required faster internet than when mining a single CHIA coin. 4g internet is not suitable for multi mining. |

PLSD, ASIC, PLSВ, ATM. What is this shit?
You need to buy one token, then convert this token into another token. Then use this token to mine another token. It's not mining, it's staking. It looks very suspicious and why do miners need it?
I try to stay away from such projects.

Prices are crazy. 4080 dropped a day or 2 ago and all grabbed by bots and selling at 2x the price. here is the best price on ebay by a real seller it will go poof by the end of today https://www.ebay.com/itm/185659376454?most other cards are over 2k And who needs these video cards 2 times more expensive? Probably gamers from buy You need to wait until the end of January and prices in stores will decrease.And if you really want to mine, then you can buy a cheap 3000 series, because there is a lot of information on how to deal with overheating problems. |

To all crypto miners who still believe in gpu mining is there anyone using RTX4090 already for mining? What hashrate are you getting off the graphic card and which coin is the most friendly for mining on the RTX4090, also I need information on watt consumption and heat, this is urgent, I will drop more information later.
Is this information not enough for you? https://whattomine.com/gpus/79-nvidia-geforce-rtx-4090?cost=0.1&cost_currency=USDMaybe you can get a little better power consumption, but this video card has the same problems as the RTX 3090. And then you will have the dilemma: making expensive cooling or opening warranty seals and changing thermal pads with thermal paste. you know my 3090ti cards have cool memory numbers I have 4 from evga all of them have ram in the 76-86c range with 300- 305 watts https://www.evga.com/products/product.aspx?pn=24G-P5-4983-KRlook at the two 3090ti in open air rig below I understand that you have chosen good video cards with a good cooling system, but not everyone is so lucky. My colleagues have problems with these graphics cards and have been forced to deal with overheating issues. I have a lot of cheap open cases and don't want to spend money on closed cases or extra ventilation. that card has a massive cooler(uses a lot of metal), the card is still new but if the thermal pads can't last long, it has to be changed with quality thermal pads. there are cards that have low quality coolers even with good thermal pads, the temps are a bit good enough but not excellent. cards with better coolers are a bit more expensive, but sometimes it is worth it. First problem: EVGA, a titan in the PC component space, is getting out of the graphics card game. The company posted in its community forum, saying that it won’t be making next-generation Nvidia graphics cards but will continue to sell and support “the existing current generation products.” According to Gamers Nexus, the company doesn’t currently have plans to make AMD or Intel graphics cards. https://www.theverge.com/2022/9/16/23357031/evga-nvidia-graphics-cards-stops-makingThe second problem is in return on investment and relation to profit with possible problems. |

Chia (XCH) is being traded for $31.42 USD, this price, or something like 100USD is probably the fair price, but the peak of 1599 USD was only speculation in my opinion, and these prices can't be reached again.
At that time people was excited about HDD mining and the creator Bram Cohen.
But after more than a year, which problems did the coin solved? What relevant projects are being made?
Unfortunately it was only hype, and the chart says all:
...
This usually happens when a new coin is launched. Hype spreads like crazy, pumping the cryptocurrency's price to the moon. But after a few months, you will see prices going down due to loss of interest among the general public. It happened with Zcash when it traded well above $1.3k per coin, only to go all the way down to less than $50. What makes you think Chia would be any different? It seems to me that HDD mining's popularity is declining, when there are a lot of coins which can be mined via the use of ASICs and GPUs. As far as I know, both Chia and Burst are the only coins in existence which can be mined with a HDD. I guess that's why there's not a lot of interest in mining them. If only developers made more HDD-mineable coins things would've been different. Not only HDDs are more accessible than GPUs or ASIC, but they're cheaper too (depending on the type of HDD, of course). At least, the two coins (Chia and Burst) are still alive. Who knows if someone decides to create a new fork out of these projects to revive the hype? Just my thoughts  I think there are other projects, such as Storj, Signum, Sia that start with the letter S. The big minus of this mining is that it takes many hours to prepare the hard drive for mining coins. Most miners have no desire to study this. |
