1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Bitcoin or ETH for long term on: August 14, 2018, 03:13:09 AM
in my opinion, bitcoin is worth holding in 3 to 5 years. because it has been stable from 2008 to the present. ether can be retained in 2 to 3 years. it is also very young, compared to Bitcoin.

It seems the ETH has more potential as it has big user community and active developments.

if you want to invest for a long term good choice is BTC, while ETH is good choice for short term. Neither of which this two you will choose it will still bring back your investment for sure. Both coins is good for investment.

Do you think BCH is better than BTC as it has big block?

soon video cards will be sold at a price per kilogram  Grin
and a lot of upset home home miners

1/3 of my GPUs was R9, may I have more money than other that using RX. R9 will be more weighty than RX or other series.

But sorry, I don't want be one of the upset miners whose sold their GPUs.  Grin

That is right. I have some R9 390, they can still work properly if you do not stress them too much.

Just like the title says. 2 scared to try it out and fry my riser/gpu

You cannot use the CPU 8pin directly. You have to use an adaptor.

Now all working good

Not actually. Some coins are still missing.
6  Economy / Speculation / Re: BTC at $1,000 by Christmas? on: January 04, 2017, 08:03:30 PM
Will we find this gift under our tree?
Unfortunately, down, it is so little. Look forward to next Christmas is $2000

Off course, unfortunately bitcoin is going down on Christmas Day. Letter bit, i am not surprised, because i know that, it is not a even of bitcoin. Because it is not a Halving day. Suddenly bitcoin down in this day, than i guess people are using their bitcoin to celebrate the Christmas, may be the reason to going down the price of bitcoin. Otherwise i think within 2 days bitcoin would be grow up. So let see what is happening in the last week of the year. 

Basically the same happened before the last halving. People had been expecting the price to go down some time after the event, but it topped about a month before. We can see something similar here. People expect the price to top after some specific date or holiday, Cristmas or New Year, but the trend seemingly changes before the date. The lesson is that we shouldn't follow what the majority of people think or say and should instead act to the contrary, though not mechanically, of course.

The $1000 price was reached just 7 days later. So it is still very good.

Are you sure about 7 days ago? Correct me if I'm wrong, but the $1,000 level fell only 3 days ago, on January, 1st. And since then, the price has been rising constantly without any meaningful correction. Right now it is just short of $1,100 mark and will probably shoot higher during next few hours. But it looks more and more like heavy market manipulation, with people long expecting a correction and still failing with the price ever rising. We need at least a week of consolidation at some level to make any reliable conclusion about if it is really an organic growth as some are saying.

7 days from Christmas is around January 1.

I'm starting to think after recent upwards trajectory that $1000 could definitely be possible soon. Maybe not by Christmas Day but by New Year yes.

I hope the price will be around $850 by new year. If it rises too fast, it will also crash hard. That happened before.
8  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: [ZEC] Zcash Speculation on: December 19, 2016, 01:44:48 PM
zCash is not going good for the past two weeks and a decrease of 40% is pretty bad for a coin (within two weeks) or a drop from 0.13 to 0.045 within a month is pretty bad, I can't predict the future but we should see a stable ZEC next year.
There is only way up ahead IMO!

Be more concrete, how? Probably people will start pumping the price and get on the level that it was before at ~0.1BTC but that is pretty hard because it is now +150% which I think can't be done within this year!?

The 0.1 bitcoin price target is quite difficult to achieve.
Zcash rise too quickly, even at the beginning of the bitcoin performance is also not like Zcash. I think it still could go up again, just let the market decide. I have some Zcash and still I hold, waiting for the best price for sell.

The early price of 3000 bitcoin is not relevant. The volume was very small.

The only investment that is now allowing to make money, atleast looks like, are the casinos bankroll, others ways usually lead us into scam projecs in the short- medium period. Sometimes savings is the best way, even not getting nothing extra for those, you are able to get interest at your bitcoins due the volatility.


I agree that sometimes savings is the best way because I am thinking that a good saver will be always a good investor. Because while he is saving money he gives value to it and he will spend it wisely whether it is for investment or not. And for me, to have a good investment you need to have good savings for backing it up.
Savings is just a first step to success, no one will be rich if a person does not know how to save. It starts from the beginning since when you are successful in savings, you can gain experience on that and would make you a discipline person.
agree with you that if we have saving it can helps us to get rich in the future and people does not know how to save they are not be successful. That is why we need to assure every time we get our salary we need to give percentage of money to savings.

Saving money is a challenge especially for young people.. because technology always updated and more and more products are being offered to us like gadgets, clothing, etc. We tend to use our savings to buy those things. So that's why it's realy important to control yourself to buy and more on to savings.

For the young people, if they can afford one bitcoin a year now and save for the long term, they will be very rich.

At crypto world we always want two things, more bitcoins and bigger value, with that said, we sometimes does invest trying to achieve both requests, sometimes we do loose in the road, savings for me has showed last halving it would be better hold my coins instead risk them, but this is up at each one.
Talking about crypto world, it's more on a investment on me, it's not savings because the word savings happens only in the bank and there's no risk on that. Here, it's full of risk but the reward is great..

I wouldn't be so certain on that

We already witnessed how clients money had been openly stolen by a rogue government in 2013 (that event got appropriately dubbed later as a Cyprus hair-cut). So even if you completely discard from consideration inflation which slowly but surely eats away the value of your money held in a bank account with some miserable interest, I guess there is hardly any reason to consider bank deposits as a no-risk investment, whatever you might mean by this

"rogue government in 2013 (that event got appropriately dubbed later as a Cyprus hair-cut)", that was when the bitcoin price rose 10 folds in a few weeks.

cant wait its come to exchnages to buy some...Wink

I think it will be way to expensive at the beginning.

That could be right. Maybe it is better to wait until the initial bubble to burst before invest in the ZCash.
12  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it better to save money or invest it? on: October 20, 2016, 05:28:07 PM
Saving currently isn't really interesting as a normal savings account gets you about 4% interest per year. if you have money that you'll not spend the comming years it can be set at 6-8% each year but the downside is that you can't acces your money for 5 years. Are you be patient with it?
Very few people are that patient when we take into account the low earnings and the long time that you need to be invested, how instable the current world economy is, and the fact that the investment could turn into a scam then I do not consider that to be a good business.

All investments are not scam and you can never have good and comfortable life in future if you will never invest, as there are many trusted investments like gold and real estates that can give you good profits in long term.

If you invest some bitcoin, for example, 10 bitcoins in the next few years, you might live a good life after.

Hi Claymore,

I have a small request to include a field in Ethman, to extract the Crimson version installed on each rig.

If this is useful addition, I hope other members can also support this request so that justification for Claymore to spend the effort to add the field.

Thanks and keep up the good work.

Thanks

Why do you want to extract the Crimson version installed on each rig. What is the extra benefit for doing that?

As long as you know your money is safe in bitcoin or bank and you will notice the big difference of that two, bank is 100% safe your money while in bitcoin 99% your money at risk but it would be gives you big income in times that the price of bitcoin would go high.

That is right. I think it is better to understand the risk and invest in the bitcoin and keep the bitcoin to yourself, you will be rich.
15  Economy / Economics / Re: Is it better to save money or invest it? on: September 11, 2016, 08:41:07 AM
My finnaly answer just invest and invest forever withiut and saving money to try earn.Invest was always better to earn money and it will always be forever and it is now so I am investing only.
true, because if you just keep the bitcoin you have, you probably will never develop and know that the odds of another. investment can teach you the importance of patience, other than that you can make money with real if you invest the right place, and could make bitcoin money or do you have to grow each month.

I think the patience is very important in the investing. I bought some bitcoin in the middle of last year, the price has risen a lot.

Hello,

How i set a max hashrate / mining  speed.

For example :

I want max 183 total speed for 6 r9 390x

How i do that?

Thanks

Solo mining Eth at a pool - simply follow the readme file.

Dualmining, depends whether you want to maximise ETH or you want more SC or Decred.

More Eth with AMD cards - set all cards to slow mode -etha 1,1,1,1,1,1,1

Set around -dcri 22 for SC or Decred- run for 24 hours and divide shares by 1440 minutes to find out your baseline average.

Then, experiment for yourself with SC and Decred settings!

More SC - Decred

Just try higher -dcri settings out to find what you happy with in terms of extra SC or Decred coin accumulation.

Overclocking - just google the web for the professional reviews on you specific model/manufacturers' GPUs overclock benchmark and use them as a guidelines.  


For my AMD R9 390, the hash rate is faster if I set etha to 0. It is about 5% faster. I only mine ETH though.

Trading with a range can be a good consolidation. After a few months of consolidation, the price will rise again.

That is right. I think the price rose a lot in the May to June period, over 60% in some measures. So correction is needed.
yes, the price grew a lot though it seems to be going down once again, in my opinion the price is going to start getting back pretty soon and i hope it will shoot to the sky

I hope the price will go up, but not too fast. If the price rises just 3 to 5% per months, it is good for the adoption.

Slow price rise or low volatility is the main characteristic of a good currency. I hope the bitcoin can achieve that.

After the 3 to 5 months correction, the price could rise a lot. But that depends on the further good news.

We just reached 440$ in Bitstamp, looks like train is already getting filled with people for the next station. I hope that everyone is riding with as many BTC as possible, this is gonna be a good one.

Fundamentals: looking fantastic
TA: Triangle broken and the only way is up.

The halving will do the rest, which coupled with the advancements in the software + scaling solutions, make a big full moon shinning in the distance, and by distance I mean anytime from days to 2-3 months max to reach new heights.
i dont think you are really with the time beacuse we already hit the 600 each so i dont think you know where you talking about.

I think the recent price rise is caused by the halving. The halving should double or triple the price from $440.

It is possible for the price to be around $800 during the halving time, then it will rise to $1200 within a year.

It seems the price is $650 now during the halving time. I think the will trade between $600 and 800 for some time.

This question depends all about the person you are are you a person who are good in saving money you should go further and save your money you know you can always
invest your saved money later. But when you already got enough money and dont want to save invest money you will only get more.!

I do not use all my income for a living. So I will use the spare money to invest, especially the bitcoin for the future.
