Or what is the best active AMD miner out there can that boost my hashrate a bit more? 30mh is more than enough, I have 6 of these card and only once is not doing so well, it's MSI RX580 8gb micron memory, any help will be appreciated
5  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Put a stop to w10 update and get stable hashrate on: February 08, 2021, 07:35:31 AM
Find a way to stop windows 10 update on your PC if you are using w10 OS for mining, I stopped the update today with a one-click.bat file and I noticed good performance on pool hashrate reports, so all along it's always the update doing some shit in the background

Here is video about the tool

6  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Nicehash vs other pools question on: February 08, 2021, 07:31:33 AM
The reason why I decide to use Nicehash for mining is to avoid Ethereum high gas fee and nicehash do that just right because it pays in BTC but when it comes to hashrate comparison nicehash is really ripping people off

I have 31.7 mhs from my gtx1660 super and I noticed that's I'm getting paid by 26mh hashing power, which is 2.9$ every day but on other pools I should be getting 3.4$ every day anyways

So is it possible to start mining Ethereum straight to my binance wallet? Then I will swap to other coins directly? Is there anyone on here doing same thing?
7  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Real fact behind crypto ban in Nigeria on: February 07, 2021, 08:44:32 AM
Finally CBN gives the main reason why they put ban on crypto in Nigeria, the fact is there are many bad eggs among the good eggs, online romance scammers are now using bitcoin as their benefactor to cashing out money easily with no traces, read news here

https://www.arise.tv/how-fbi-alerted-nigerias-central-bank-to-scammers-using-cryptocurrencies-to-defraud-the-west/

The question is are white people so stupid that they will keep sending money to people they've never meet in real life? Honestly all this defrauding through romance and other ways have been going on since past years now, I expected all this to have come to an halt, the problem isn't even the scammers but people who allowed themselves to be used
8  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Be more serious with research this time around on: February 07, 2021, 08:34:01 AM
All eyes wide open, bull season is inviting more scammers and many new projects are coming into crypto space every week now including new bounty projects, be prepared and don't be deceived by everything you see, make sure you take research very serious, it's better to be safer than sorry later
9  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Any software for trading watts? on: January 31, 2021, 07:02:21 AM

11  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / RX Vega 56 & 64 on: December 12, 2020, 02:27:38 PM
RX Vega 56 and 64 have been around for a long time now, are there people still building rigs with these graphic cards? Since they are now old AMD cards I expect them to be cheaper right now, also are they still Profitable for a certain algorithm?
12  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / If new projects can go through verifications too on: November 26, 2020, 04:05:20 PM
Im wondering if it's possible for new projects team to go through KYC themselves, why is it always investors going through KYC just to buy presale and tokens in crowdfunding? If teams are going through verifications it will be easier to track them down if they scam people, but how is this ever going to happen? Only top exchanges have such power for example binance, to save their credibility they have to do good screening on the project first, on teams and on projects use case, what do you think will work better ? SEC? Or what?
13  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Stable coins for bounty hunters on: June 04, 2020, 08:29:11 AM
I know this have been discussed several times on this forum but yet I will like to drop this again, I'm sure few new developers are among us here, so here we go

It will be a whole new story if new projects can start paying bounty hunters in USD or stablecoin, this have few advantages over paying with your own tokens, if new projects find it as a most for people to try out their new Blockchain they should use airdrops instead, airdrops has the lowest rewards, hardly to get 2$ in airdrops today

As for bounties please start paying in USDT, DAI or USDC, this will erase your sense of 'bounty hunters are killing new projects' idea

14  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Asic or Gpu? on: April 12, 2020, 02:10:18 PM
Guys I'm trying to build a mining farm in near future but I want to know which set ups is good enough to last me for years, I'm thinking of going for latest asic miners or graphics cards like RTX or AMD Radeon VII and Vega, pleas some advice is needed
15  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Binance after Coinmarketcap on: March 31, 2020, 12:27:36 PM
If binance CEO and team take over CMC then you guys should be ready for a whole new level of ratings, here are few things I expect from Binance

1. Liquidity rating will finally works
2. Many fraudulent projects will be kicked out
3. Many fake volume exchanges will be exposed or even red tagged

So far I haven't seen a capable team like binance team, if crypto is going to reach a whole new milestone then this is how it will begins
16  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / 20000 pieces of Bitcoin wreck the market sounds annoying on: March 10, 2020, 08:10:08 AM
It sounds very bad to hear that 12000 pieces of Bitcoin can wreak havoc of Bitcoin value, I wonder what will happen if a whale decide to sell 100k of Bitcoin someday, Bitcoin max supply is 21million right? If 12000 can bring this damage then Bitcoin is just like every other coins
17  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / If Coronavirus never happened on: March 02, 2020, 07:09:22 AM

18  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Good or bad plan? on: February 26, 2020, 07:30:50 AM
Are we at the bitcoin bottom already? Ethereum falls pretty hard today just because Bitcoin hit 9110$, is this just a correction or the coronavirus at play again? I'm thinking about buying back BTC right now
19  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Information needed on: February 26, 2020, 07:28:59 AM
Is there any website that accepts altcoins for buying phones or electronics like mining rigs, asic miners, desktop PC's and do delivery? Trusted source only please, thanks
20  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Facts about mining Coins on: February 07, 2020, 10:12:43 AM
While mining cryptocurrencies can be profitable on the long run there are few things that's making things very hard for miners

1. OBSOLETE
Back in the days when mining was still very profitable I used to have very good GPUs then, like AMD HD7970 6x and it was very fun mining Monero and making good profits within a week but now its impossible and all these cards are useless, I was forced to sell and move on, the fact is GPUs become obsolete faster than Asic miners

2. Cost of Electricity
Most profits from miners now are for electricity fees, I still have friends that mine ETH and by month ending 70% of his profits goes to electricity, he is able to even earn that 30% because he has multiple mining setups

3. Dead GPU
Your GPU can die on you at any time, it happened to me and I was able to fix some but not all, mostly this happens because of heat or failed GPU fans

My conclusion is if you don't want to go through all of this its better you switch to POS ( Proof of Stake) that won't cost you any energy and worries, its all about buying coins and staking them, no hassle at all, the higher the quantities of your coins the higher your reward
