There are lots of people who ran into the same problem at cex.io. Just give a visit to reddit.com/r/cexio and take a look at the front page. I am also on the same boat. Hope this will get fixed ASAP. I think the problem is the exchange websites being greedy and setting low gas fees which prolong the transactions.

Do any of you know when an ETH transaction gets cancelled? Because right now it does not even show up on the blockchain. Thx.

Hello nice people of the internet,

I have been redirected from the old thread to here.

As a complete newbie I am looking forward to mine Zero coin. It looks like it has some nice profit and also would like to support the community as much as I can ^^

I am thinking to buy some good GPUs via second hand deals. There are not many sources that I could come up with which covers mining Zero coin. So embrace yourselves when I direct some stupid questions.

First and foremost is there an actual documentation or guideline which I can follow to mine zero coins? I was thinking to mine ETH but heard that Zero is much more profitable. Is that true (cause also Zero went from 0.8 to 0.55 USD)?

 Is there a way to calculate my expected equihashzero? If not can you throw some numbers at me using 580/480 or 1050Ti/1060? Have been told that its not the same with equihash, but is there any mapping?

About the profitability how much do you make with a x6 GPU rig? And as a n00b myself, should I avoid mixing Nvidia/AMD? Is that a problematic combo?

Any gear advices are also much appreciated. Currently trying to get my hands on some good deals (also a little risky since they are second hands) so that I can build up a rig hopefully.

I have zillions of other questions which will need a hand or two when I actually get my hands on the hardware. Hopefully you guys can give me some of your hands! I sometimes cannot help but feel lost!

Feel free to address any of the questions asked above. Any effort is extremely appreciated.

Thank you for your understanding!

Have a good week!

PS. I am thinking not to use a monitor and possibly boot Linux thru USB. Is this actually doable?

Hello guys,

I made the following plan:

BTC      25%
ETH      20%
Monero   10%
DASH   10%
NEO      10%
Waves   5%
Lisk      5%
EOS      5%
XML      5%
Verge   5%


Also would like to squeeze in Electroneum/Enjin and REQ somehow? Do I miss out on anything?

I was gonna include XTRABYTES as well, but read stuff about the founder's staying under cover. Not so cool.


Thanks!

Hello guys as a complete newbie I am looking forward to mine Zero coin. It looks like it has some nice profit and also would like to support the community as much as I can ^^

I am thinking to buy GTX 1050Ti, 950 and 2 RX580s. Do you think I should drop the Nvidias and outright go with RX580? Also when I calculate my hashrate at whattomine, is Equihash same as Equihashzero?

As a noob, I will need much more help when I actually get my hands on the hardware. Hopefully you guys can give me a hand! Unfortunately I could not locate much places to gather info regarding mining Zcoins and as a newcomer I sometimes cannot help but feel lost!

Thank you for your understanding!

Have a good week!

Yes exactly. Sucks that no one cares to answer :/
7  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / A Question about the Value of Altcoins on: December 16, 2017, 03:55:14 PM
Hello friends. If anyone wants to skip this introductory part about me, feel free to do so!

I am pretty noob in the cryptoworld. I did my first purchase through Coinbase at 1st of December. I have tried selling them on localbitcoins thru PayPal (yeah I was dumb as a brick), so not very surprisingly I got fucked over by a scammer around 1000 $. That was a huge lesson for me where I have met with the taste and power of mighty HODLING. Recovering through my despair, I purchased more BTC from Coinbase and I sailed onwards to Binance 3 days ago. Here I really would like to thank you for the valuable input, because I have basically guided my altcoin investments from the arguments mostly presented here. My investment that was worth 650 $ several days ago now worth over 800 $! If anyone wonders my investments so far, I have around 800 ADA, 190 XRP, several IOTAs and half an ether. Additionally, I would like to purchase XTRABYTES, Stellar, Nem, Tron and possibly some EOS, QTUM and Waves.

To the question which really grinds my gears!

The question is when I monitor the coin prices in coinmarketcap,  I was only looking at the USD pricing. However, I realized that to be able to withdraw your funds at the very end (I do not know for now how long I will keep my coins, but let's say some day), eventually you have to go back to USD. Granted that you can pretty much only sell BTC/ETH/LTC at this point to actually retrieve your money back which I cannot do it on binance and I have to transfer my funds to another market or sell it the big vendors like Coinbase, I felt like the USD value of your altcoin is not that important but their corresponding BTC/ETH/LTC equivalents are what matter. And yes,  I know I should not be keeping my funds at an online stock, but I will change it whenever I can figure a manageable approach, however, I guess I am doomed to have several wallets to house my alts.

Can anyone who is experienced in this field shed some light on this? Does a coin's USD equivalence price hold any importance at all? Is there an optimal way -even a better way that I really haven't considered- to convert your money back to USD?

PS. I am purchasing through Coinbase, simply because I am on the waiting list of other markets and they are taking a very long time to respond! If you happen to have advice regarding a cheaper way to purchase, I lay my ears on you.

Thanks for the feedback. Much appreciated. Wish you all a happy Xmas with loads of moons!
