The difficulty bomb should be pushed back by 3 months today. Statistics has not been updated yet, this service is working with a delay. https://etherscan.io/chart/blocktimeWhat else can prevent the end of ethereum mining? |

The price of mining machines is about to rise. Now the prices of machines are very low. Is it a good time to buy?
The price will not rise in the bear market, it will fall because the profitability fall in the same way. With energy prices on the rise, prices declining, hardware will become cheaper. You can already see it in the Videocard rigs. Getting lower and lower. If the bear enter to november, i know I will start my mining operations again. Simply they provide warmth and i expect the prices to be very very low. In a way it is cheaper and more fun to do. Don't know if bitmain will rise their prices, but they will be shooting themself, because with current difficulty and energy prices, miners have to dump their btc. All prices for ASIC's decrease from day to day. I'm also waiting for the right GPU flood, at the moment used GPUs in Europe are still too expensive. What is the current GPU price in Europe? I look at the prices on this site, and I used to order various equipment there. I didn't have to apply for warranty. https://www.computeruniverse.netSee America on this site https://www.newegg.com/It seems to me that if you find a good discount, then it is more profitable than buying used components. |

The 3070 Ti is a card with Gddr6x memory and if you cool it down properly you can get it to the average hash rate of 76-80 Mhsh
Because of thermal limitations I can only get 105 Mh on my RTX 3080 Ti instead of the full 120 Mh. I decided to never buy GDDR6X video cards again, and mine EPIC+SERO instead of ETH. Due to thermal limitations, some miners did not receive more than 90 megahash. At first it was 115 and then the hashrate dropped to 80 megahash. If you are a miner who buys an expensive video card and does not read the reviews of other miners, then great adventures await him. But you are very lucky, 105 megahash is good. |

It's already too late unless you can get RTX 2080 Ti for 250$, if this doesn't happen it's better to stay away from mining and this is even after you've calculated your electricity expenses first, in some countries mining sucks right now.
RTX 2080 Ti are very hot graphics cards and are inferior in terms of profit to GeForce RTX 3060 Ti. Now it is better to buy video cards with lower power consumption and DDR6 memory, which does not heat up during mining, so as not to be spent on additional ventilation and more powerful power supplies. |

I've bought a lot of $2-$3 raisers from series 3 to 7. This raiser is worth $10. My raisers have 3-4 capacitors, and in 5 years of mining I had no problems. This is a big overpayment for the raiser, I would choose cheaper raisers even for powerful video cards like 3090.

I mine too many coins to count since I have profit switching, so all I can say is I don't mine ETH.
I might buy some of the Goldshell ASICs like the KD-lite or HS-lite because of the PoS risk of video cards.
Is this Asic miner better option than graphic cards? How much is the cost of this Asic miner and is your point about the profitability wise? I still think that GPUs will be a lot cheaper than Asic miners as we go down in this bear market season. This ASIC is only for Kadenа https://www.asicminervalue.com/miners/goldshell/kd-maxBetter buy asics for bitcoin or litecon, because I do not believe in the future of the cadenа coin. Or wait for new opportunities to invest in GPU mining. |

If you are mining FLUX, you must use a different GPU CORE and MEM setting as when you mining ETH. For FLUX mining try GPU CORE +200 MHz and MEM +0 MHz Info: https://www.hashrate.no/3070Oh I didn't know that ! I thought Afterburner settings worked for every situation. Thanks, now with Power limit 70%, Core +200 and Memory 0, I can reach about 60 Sol/s with 153W and 65°C with 40% fan speed !  Thank you very much for your help. I don't know where you reside but I guess you are in some cool place compared to most of Europe,here we are experiencing the hottest days of the year so far so running at 40% fan speed is not an option,I get like 69 degree C at 76% fan speed here with while 38 degree C outside,so I advise you to increase a bit the fan speed as you know the cooler a card run the longer its lifespan while even if you happen to damage the fans (rarely has happened to me) you can always replace them for a low cost compared to replacing the card.Just an advice from a fellow miner. Haha yes it is pretty cold where I live. Although I'm not sure where to find fans in case my 3070's fans break down... If you are too lazy to do such a cooling yourself, then buy a ready-made kit on aliexpress. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005003600191997.htmlOn my GTX 1080 graphics cards, it has been doing an excellent job of cooling for several years. You only need to pick up the right fans, from 0.35 A. |

All I can achieve from my 3070Ti is 73MH with driver 512.15, is this is appropriate hashrate that I should be getting? I'm running on windows 10 OS using Trex miner, pls help
This is fine. The average hashrate is 76-80 megahash. If you write your settings, then users will give you more advice on setting up a video card. |

I am not against this fork, but the price of this coin is important for all miners.
Will all ethereum coin holders get rebel fork coins?
121 million coins is enough to drive the price of the coin very low.
At launch all Ethereum holders that haven't locked their funds for staking will receive the same amount of ethereum as they own. Currently this number is 89,2% of the supply but this it is expected to decrease if more users join the ethereum 2.0 staking pool. Hard to guess the price, it's up to the market to decide. Do you understand that this can be fatal for your coin? Ethereum coin owners will immediately sell your coin and the price will be very low. Miners will not be interested in mining your coin, and you will have problems with 51% attacks, as was the case with Ethereum Classic |

Hey,
Thank you both for the response. I should answer a few things that I never answered:
1. I should have said this in my first message, and I totally forgot. Iam not mining Bitcoin. I have mined and I’m currently mining either Bitcoin Gold, Ethereum Classic or Monero.
Monero is more profitable to mine on multi-core processors, asics are used for mining Bitcoin Gold, so this coin is not mined on processors and video cards. For Ethereum Classic, there are ASICs and video cards. What equipment and settings do you have? |
|
|
|
|
Have you lost profit on holding worthless coins yet?
I've been losing and I advise you to mine ethereum now, because mining will probably end soon, and then choose any other coin. I would choose ethereum classic. Its price may still rise.

OEM graphic cards are nameless warriors, the only ones I fear is the low end graphic card that can fit into a flat mini desktop, they are poorly built, but if the OEM cards are RTX 2060 2070 and 3060s they are as good as other brands.
You can find out about the quality of these video cards only after at least 12 months of mining. Some manufacturers use used video chips that they buy at sales of broken equipment. For example, for sale in your country, there will be more demand for a video card from the famous ASUS brand than for a video card from the Yeston or SOYO brand, which many people have not even heard of. |

In 2015, one AMD Radeon R9 280 video card gave about 6 Ethereum coins per day. Even if I were to sell coins now, it would be millions of dollars. But then no one understood the value of these coins and miners sold them for a few tens of cents or less.
This is why the get-rich-quick 'miner bro' types who just install Nicehash on Windows then immediately sell their coins for fiat $ will lose in the long run. Mining is supposed to be a long-term venture where miners have confidence in the coin and HODL the coin because it's cheaper to mine them than to buy them. It took until 2019 for me to learn that lesson. I remember why then the miners sold their coins. Nobody believed in the growth of the cryptocurrency price and at any moment you could lose a good profit. I sold ethereum and bought video cards. Banks did not block debit cards, after the exchange I immediately bought components for the mining farm. |

Gddr6x graphic cards get hotter when mining than gaming, talking from my own experience, even if I throw a graphically demanding game like The Wither 3 on my 3080ti the memory temp won't go up compared to when mining Ethereum.
Come on, The Wither 3 is hardly a graphically demanding game anymore since it was 7 years old already, especially paired with your 3080ti card. Post like this makes me wish we had a Crysis successor in terms of "Can it run Crysis" meme so everyone can understand when talking about a graphically demanding game to benchmark their card, load and temp. Maybe he has a very large monitor? |

Ethereum POW=Ethereum Classic.
A rebel fork testnet has successfully been launched. With 100% of the nodes working as expected. Ready to be deployed. 1. The Ethereum POS stake holders funds will be vaulted. 2. The difficulty bomb has been removed. 3. The London fork burning code will be reverted. Why do we need another worthless coin?
The rebel fork will be supported by some of the biggest exchanges in the world. Please give a link to the rebel fork website or community. My search engine does not return the required information. I am not against this fork, but the price of this coin is important for all miners. Will all ethereum coin holders get rebel fork coins? 121 million coins is enough to drive the price of the coin very low. |

You might get a loud cooler blower fan instead of a quieter higher quality copper heatsink with multiple fans but the build quality is very good and they rarely get any issues.
I don't think the Radeon RX 6800 series have lower-quality coolers than the AIB models. This is probably the exception If the problem is only in coolers, then you can remove the original cooling system and use video cards with radiators in closed cases. If only the radiators were of good quality with a sufficient number of copper tubes. Give a link to the OEM video card store? |

Bear market needs to get bloodier for mining to be fun again, right now the difficulty isn't decreasing, in fact it seems many miners are now smart because no one is turning off their miners yet or am I wrong?
The ETH difficulty is not decreasing by much (thanks to the difficulty bomb), but the network hashrate is down 16%: https://etherscan.io/chart/hashrateSo people are turning off their rigs at the same pace as late 2018. This is looking similar to October 2018, where it took until December for the real difficulty crash to happen. This is a normal situation, because miners with expensive electricity are starting to sell their video cards. I see a lot of ads for nvidia 3000 series, and few ads for 2000 and 1000 series. This will give us some more coins. |
