Hey guys!

I know this doesn't make sense but I'm hoping to mine Bitcoin on modern GPUs. I mean actually mining the SHA256 algo. I know you used to be able to do this with cgminer like 10 years ago, but I'm struggling to find anything that can do it on modern GPUs. I think it would make for a fun comparison of how far ASIC mining technology has come in a video on my Youtube channel.

If any of you guys have any tips for a mining software I could do this with I'd be very thankful! Basically any help I can get at all would be greatly appreciated.

EDIT: Yes I am very aware this won't be profitable I run a Youtube channel and a lot of my viewers have been asking about solo mining BTC on their GPU rigs now that GPU mining isn't profitable since the merge. I wanna show them that yes technically you can do it but it's not really a good idea.

Thank you so much!

Imagine the following scenario (that could possibly occur in decades):

Bitcoin becomes widely adopted, its marketcap surpass the dollar's, and it become so valuable that even a single satoshi is worth more than, for example, a couple of pens, a bottle of water, etc.

In that case, payments for small amounts wouldn't be possible even with second layer solutions such as LN, because even a single satoshi would be more valuable than the price of the product. There would be a need for Bitcoin to be more divisible, for it to be broken down into even smaller parts.

Would such need to use smaller denomination units (smaller than satoshi) require a hard fork? Can someone shed some light into it?

How, and how much did you manage to lose?

Hi all,friends
I think that this question will seem very interesting,because the story of acquaintance and first investment in bitcoin will never be forgotten
Someone found out from friends,someone read on the internet,and someone may be standing at the birth of the cryptocurrency itself
Share your stories my friends,because each story is unique and interesting

I have heard the argument many times that some fairly use equipment are better options for purchase when compared to brand new. I can't understand how this can be argued when clearly the only reason to go for fairly used equipment should be insufficient money to afford a new one. My advice for anyone who wants to buy equipment to start mining is that if you can afford to get the new one, go for it and play the long game instead of trying to save some little money on fairly used that are more prone to developing a fault. Buy new equipment if possible.

Ftx drama
Its no new story again about what happened to ftx and how millions of investor lost their money due to what happened to ftx and this has caused so many problems in the crypto world and many new comers to the crypto have this wrong idea that bitcoin and all other coins is a scam project and if they put their money their going to loose. Before now i was part of this set of people that thought so, and never actually wanted to understand btc and crpto currency more, but since i got here i have learnt alot and i have done enough reading to know that ftx was actually an exchange platform which was dealing with centralized coins and toying with investor funds and one thing which is very clear is that any platform controlled by someone will eventually have some errors especially when it comes to crypto and that's why BTC IS THE BEST because its decentralized and not controlled by the government or any C.E.O

now some months have past and investigation are still going and insight are getting out on what really happened about the funds of investors in Fxt and today I saw some news about how FTX was lending money to another company and this money i supposed its the customer funds and now when they could no longer meet up with customers demand, they pin on their website been hacked or something else so its just a matter of time before we hear the whole truth about this Fxt saga

I read the rules of the forum and its say you add a link to your story so i hope i did well.

In the history of the basketball field in the Philippines, this is the first time that Gilas will be able to compete against team USA, I am sure that its arena will be full in the year 2023. Many people will likely bet here on which team will win.

But also make sure that the tickets will be very expensive for those who watch here. If you look at it from another angle, the USA going to the Philippines seems like this team will make a lot of money for the Filipinos. Although, it looks like it's worth it anyway because it's the first time it's going to happen. I'm just not sure if this will be the ticket price.

I have been in this crypto market for a while now. 2 years plus if I remember correctly. I have seen BTC at $29k when I first entered the crypto market.
Then after some struggle, BTC went up so high reaching almost 70k making it the all-time high price of BTC. Then in 2022 it just falls and where it stands now.

As whom holds more than 1 BTC now, I think you guys are in this crypto world for a long now. How does it feel to hold it in Bear market?
And what would you suggest to the people entering the market recently and having thoughts about selling their share of BTC? What's your advice to them?

As for my advice, I would say "Try to do some research on Bitcoin's past and see what it has achieved. If you dive deep, you will see it's potential and would never sell until the right time"

We are looking at renting office space for s19j pro

There is a lack of air flow (fresh air) but there is air conditioning

Does air conditioning cause problems for miners?

The room is fairly small about 13 feet by 13 feet

Will the room be able to accommodate 1 miner? How about if the operation was scaled anywhere up to 5 miners?

Most recently, the state of New York (in the US) passed a bill to ban Bitcoin mining due to environmental concerns. Some time ago, the EU did something similar (although it came into law) making both investors and miners largely concerned about the future of PoW cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Dogecoin. If FUD related to PoW mining damaging the environment persists (remember Elon Musk also criticizing Bitcoin?), then cryptocurrencies with PoW algorithms will be forced to switch to PoS altogether. Bitcoin will be the mostly affected since it's the biggest PoW cryptocurrency in the world. Growth for the pioneer cryptocurrency will stifle, forcing miners to close down their business for good.

Do you think countries worldwide will ban Bitcoin mining due to environmental concerns? If not, why? If mining is banned, do you think Bitcoin will switch to PoS? Will it still survive being a PoW cryptocurrency? Your input will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Yes, the fighting style of Tim is very similar to Castano. In the first fight it was a split decision with by Charlo and there are some pundits who says that he lost as the score is SD. So they immediately go at it in the rematch, round 24 but this this Charlo won by knockout

And I think the Castano is a better boxer overall compare to Tszyu. So there could be some adjustment on the side of Charlo in the beginning, because of the pressure and overwhelming style of Tim, but eventually he will be caught by the power of Charlo late in the rounds. So my prediction is that Charlo winning here.

When a man gets married to a woman to become husband and wife, they become one and everyone expects that they can get to share everything with each other. I know of women who have the passwords to their husbands bank cards and they can make withdrawals on his behalf. I will like to ask the Men here if they have shared their seed phrase with their wife's? I will like to ask the women here how they will feel if their husbands refuse telling them their seed phrase?

Following FTX's liquidity crisis and bankruptcy, the largest mining company "Core Scientific" has filed for bankruptcy.  A CNBC report noted that Core Scientific Mining Company filed for bankruptcy on Wednesday morning without liquidating the company's assets.  Core Scientific Company started its journey in July 2021 with assets of $4.3 billion and has brought this year to $0.078 billion as of Tuesday, December 20, 2022.  Currently, the total share price of the company has fallen by 98 percent.  A Reuters report attributed the current malaise of Core Scientific mining companies to the overnight drop in bitcoin prices, rising mining costs and other related factors, noting that all mining companies are currently under a lot of pressure.

I have never tried betting in e-sports. I know that a lot of you guys do a lot of betting in e-sports and would like to hear your opinion on that. Is it worth it? And what are the best places for that?

People actually claim to be strong holders that can go against any situation wanting them to sell off some of their bitcoins. The strongest of holders do not just sell at the slightest economic discomfort I know, but I believe everybody has a threshold at which if the pressure surpasses them, they would break into the decision of selling some of their bitcoins to sort the present condition. What kind of situation do you think is enough to pressure you in seeling some of the bitcoins you have been holding. Is family or health challenge enough reason to?

Cleaned an old Bitmain Antminer S3 from its dust, plugged it in, and it is hashing 496.1GH/s. I remember that, in the past, it consumed about 366W - which was considered ultra low. For knowing what batteries I need for running the device with solar power, I started to measure the consumption. And it is constantly between 68.5 and 70.4W.
Either I am doing something totally wrong, or some magic turned my device into a super-device? Any ideas?
