Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / I want to give "day trading" a go, question is where?

Hello everyone,
I thought of giving day trading a go, I do have a limit of funds to invest into this project, and it's XXXX, I am also aware that I CAN and WILL most likely loose funds doing this, but I am doing this for "fun" and my limit or spendings on this project is not making me homeless nor is it going to make me cry, if I do end up loosing.
I just wanted to know, what kind of platform everyone is using for day trading, or trading in general, which site should I avoid, give me your best suggestions :-)
Thank you!

Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / A newbie starting out with Altcoin(s)

Hello again everyone.
Thank you to everyone who responded to my first thread, I got advised to start mining altcoins instead of focusing on Bitcoin, since it's going to be a rough ride if I want to get on that wagon.
I went onto "whattomine.com" and saw that Zcash was good in price, but since I dont have linux, Zcash is not possible for me right now.
I then got rather confused, because alot of mining are based on graphics cards, but mostly graphics cards besides Nvidia?
So my question is, what altcoin should i focus on, I am currently sitting with an I7 4790K CPU and Nvidia Geforce GTX970
Thanks! Alex.

Hello everyone!
I have been searching around the forums for a while now, to figure out what's best for me in terms of Bitcoin mining.
I have one of those small Antminer USB's, but let's face it.... it will take me a year, and i'm up to 50 cents or MAYBE 1$
There is no way, at this current time i will have the space, nor the equipment to set up my own bitcoin farm, so...
I had a look at Genesis Mining, I have been a customer there before, and everything was running smoothly, now my contract ran out, i'd have to buy myself another contract with them.
But is this my solution, perhaps buying 1 TH/s from Genesis Mining, or can someone recommend a company that does sorta the same?
Thanks!
Alex.

Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Ethereum "geth" is taking forever
|
on: May 16, 2016, 05:26:56 AM

Hello everyone,
I was thinking of giving Ethereum mining a shot, and started setting up the basic's for it,
One of them was to get "geth" and in the terminal "geth account new" it would ask you to set a password which i did, and then geth --rpc
And this is where my question comes in, how long does this process take, it's literally been standing the most of yesterday, i let the computer on during the night, and it's STILL running,
It's making progress, so instead of:
07:24:51 core/blockchain.go:959 imported 1 block(s) #1526017
It's going up in numbers after the "#" so #1526017 becomes 18, 19 etc.
Thanks!

Bitcoin / Mining / Perhaps a really dumb question(am i mining?)
|
on: May 14, 2016, 03:24:45 PM

Hello everyone, Since i am very new to mining, this will be a very stupid question to 99.8% of the whole forum, but i have to start it out somewhere. I bought an Antminer, 2 GH/S a while ago, and connected it to multipool.us, just for starters, and i copied the command line into a bat file, and it seems to be running okay. But i'm not sure if it is mining or not, i took a screenshot of the interface itself, i can't get it onto the forums, without people having to click on a link, but here it is: http://imgur.com/iMVwAxkThank you guys! Best regards, Alex.

Bitcoin / Mining support / New guy to mining, where to start
|
on: November 29, 2015, 08:55:11 PM

Hello everyone,
I came here the first time in 2013, but had alot to do in that year, so now i am finally back.
I have been looking into Bitcoin mining for several years now, but never really made it into mining anything, i once had some software that did run a miner for me, but that was a long time ago now, i have tried several programs now, but none of them supports a Nvidia Geforce 970, so i canīt even mine from my GPU, besides i have also heard that it would take million of years that way, so my actual question was more,
1) What do i need to solo mine? Since i have seen it being more popular these days to solo mine, i think it would be the best for me
2) What software could you guys recommend using?
3) I have been looking into hardware, at this stage of my life, spending 1000$ on a device for solo mining would be way too much, but less could do.
Thanks in advance.
