1681  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: Ways to pay for bitcoin mining operation on: February 23, 2023, 11:59:50 AM
Next month, I intend to place a bulk order for miners. I have the means to do so, but I'm still looking for ways to fund it so that I can put my savings toward other investments (just in case this one fails). Please share any ideas you have on how I could accomplish this. I'm looking for tried-and-tested methods of financing these operations.
You haven't thought about buying bitcoin. I don’t know your mining cost, for example, my friends in Russia have 17-20 thousand dollars for 1 bitcoin. They use asics 70-100 terahesh. If the price of bitcoin falls to 15,000 dollars, then I think that your mining will be unprofitable, and if you buy bitcoin, then lose 40% of your investment. But bitcoin is easy to sell and invest in a profitable project, and non-profit ASICs are very difficult to sell quickly and at a good price.

If you are interested in Latin America, then read about Paraguay.

Using this methodology, we estimate that there is anywhere from 100-125 MW of Bitcoin mining in Paraguay, which would translate to 1.45% of total network hashrate on the high end and 1.16% on the low-end, according to Hashrate Index’s Bitcoin Mining Energy Consumption Index.

1685  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Killer of old video cards from Bitmain on: February 23, 2023, 11:44:35 AM
ETC gave a good profit to miners who sold the coin for more than $100. But then the hashrate was small and most miners mined this coin on 4 GB video cards, so the hashrate was small. Now the hashrate is above 100 terahash, and if asics come to mining, then this coin will be for asics.

Yes, I sold my ETC coins for $107 each, and I was mining ETC since it was $5 and holding most of the coins.
ETHW is also worth almost $5 now, but this does not guarantee that the price of Ethereum Classic will repeat. I don’t want to mine this coin on old video cards, and it’s unprofitable to buy new video cards for mining. And I don’t think that the owners of video cards 3060-3070 are mining this coin now.

I am mining ETHW as for me there is the real possibility for it to at least go back to its initial all time high of near 142 dollars for a coin which was back in September 2022 and I am an owner of Rtx 3060 ti cards so why not try.Ethereum Classic I was mining it but always exchanging to other coins and that was my mistake so I lost the opportunity to made money there when ETC hit the all time high of 179 dollars for a coin.I don't want to miss another opportunity and I have about 7 ETHW so far but there is no way I am going to sell or exchange them,I am keeping them until they grow in time or they completely fail.
For ETHW mining, one of the worst 5600xt graphics cards from Sapphire. From the wall when consuming 83 watts, you can get 38.5 megahash. If you increase the hashrate, then the consumption increases to 100 watts. But on the market, the price of two 5600xt video cards is equal to the price of 3060ti.

I have 119 watt in the wall from the 3060 ti at 61 Mhsh which I think is a great performance/consumption ratio and for 83 watts getting 38.5 Mhsh from that Rx 5600 Xt does not look that bad,well except the price which should not be equal to the 3060 ti,maybe the Rx 5700 xt/6700 xt may justify such price and still not completely but of course these cards are with better hash rate than 5600 xt and with very little difference in power consumption.

I would buy these cards if they were like 150-200 dollars each one as 5 of these would give me 200 Mhsh almost and just 415 watt electricity consumption which I think is one of the best options to continue mining your favorite coin.
I don't sell the 5600xt graphics card for two reasons. This is a good hash rate for Ethereum forks with low consumption and very low cost in the used parts market. In my country, such video cards with a guarantee cost 150-170 dollars, and there are a lot of offers. Look at the prices in your markets, I would recommend sapphire.
1686  Bitcoin / Mining / Re: Which mining is good to start? on: February 22, 2023, 09:30:32 AM
Investing in hardware mining is not quite profitable compared to how it seems to appear to most persons
This is due to electricity cost and other maintenance cost nevertheless I am not discouraging you from investing in hardware mining but I strongly suggest you carry out research and analyze it's profitability
What mining do you recommend?
If you advise POS mining, which is called staking, then the profit there is 6-15% per annum. A graphics card has a shorter payback period and you own the hardware.But I think there will still be a time when the payback of a video card will be less than 6 months, but it is better to buy a video card or asic when its cheap.
1687  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: RTX 4090 and others on: February 22, 2023, 09:21:50 AM
Yes, that they are! On the other hand, the new M2 Mac Mini is actually quite a compelling purchase.
Why do I need him? I can buy this laptop for myself, but it is not cryptocurrency mining. I had an old macbook, but I installed Windows on it Smiley
For mining, this investment will never pay off. And in a couple of years this model will become obsolete, and video cards are constantly making a profit.

Yeah, for mining no, I was just talking about in general for "regular computing."  Smiley
The new M2 Pro and M2 Max models cost about $3,000 in the US or Europe, and in Russia these laptops are 30-50% more expensive.
This is an expensive item that will attract unnecessary attention from thieves, so I see no reason to buy such a laptop.And for the office, this is an expensive purchase.

Was talking about the M2 Mini base model  Wink
Show me this model, if it costs less, then maybe I'll try another operating system. I'm not familiar with Apple laptops, so please provide a link to that laptop. But I don't like to spend a lot of money on laptops on which I do office tasks.

It's not a laptop, it's a desktop PC - https://www.apple.com/mac-mini/
Thanks for the link.
I think that this is a useless thing that is impossible to mine coins and play, due to poor cooling and the impossibility of self-repair. For 600 dollars I will assemble an excellent computer from components. My computer will be bigger, but I have no problems with the installation space.
1688  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Buying a video card for the next mining season on: February 22, 2023, 09:15:03 AM

I can understand why they always optimize for the latest generation graphic cards since miners (at least the big ones) will buy the latest cards when it is available. Unfortunately, the same thing happens when it comes to gaming performance updates for older cards. It seems manufacturers like Nvidia and AMD are trying to push users to buy their latest cards and sacrifice their user satisfaction for short-term gain.
I sell my old video cards to gamers and most of the younger gamers use old video cards and 4-6 generation intel core processors. I myself play on an old video card, although I can buy the latest GPU.
For old video cards, you do not need to install new drivers, because the performance will not be better, and maybe even worse.
1689  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Mining (Altcoins) / Re: Gamers beware: miners are now painting GPU memory on: February 22, 2023, 09:08:40 AM
I dont mind if they are painted or not.i have couple of rx480s from china they still working bought in 2019.yes condition was dead very bad. Very dirty.pads were hard as steel,fans are gone but after good care they working well.if it very very cheap i go to risk.i wish i could order gpus from china again like old good days
The rx480 graphics cards were indestructible and they work great 6 years after mining. This works at high temperatures up to 90 degrees on video cards with a faulty cooling system without gas. But not all video cards are like that.
Even now the local market has very good prices, and I would take new video cards.

I always add links when I write about new shitcoins. I don’t look at what the team writes, only profit for today is important for me, and it happens that for 1-2 weeks the profit when mining these shitcoins is higher than standard coins from the WhatToMine calculator.

Do you really mean to say that Satoshi is also a shitcoin? Also, why do people take it seriously when others claim that Satoshi has more features than Bitcoin? Please provide more details.
Where is the link to the project website?
Who are SATOSHI Project Team?
How is the SATOSHI Project Team related to the Bitcoin developer?
I saw bitcoin developers on the forum, let's ask them?
But I'm pretty sure they don't know anything about your project.

Helium had a time when miners made good money by installing equipment, but the profitable time quickly ended. In my country, this equipment was much more expensive, so I could not test it. But I do not want to buy such equipment, because it can only mine 1 coin. And in the absence of profit, the equipment is useless.

Hi friends
I have 3000 dollars budget and i want to buy a ASICS miner. which model and brand do you recommend to earn good and for long time ?
The price of your electricity?
Do you have a place to install ASIC?
Asics are very noisy and some could consume 3 or more kilowatts, so there will be a lot of noise in the apartment and you need to make a separate power cable so that there is no fire.

In 2015, there were no bat files in the downloaded distribution of the miner. When beginners asked how to start mining, they were sent to read the readme.txt file. Modern mining  veterans can't even add a fallover pool to a ready-made bat file Smiley Cry

We have different users and partners.
If you don't want to get more customers, then we will use another miner..
I'm not a miner developer, so I don't care what miner you use. I use a miner that gives a larger hashrate. Now there is very little profit in mining, and the one who knows how to read instructions and use it will earn more. When I was new to mining, I also made mistakes and asked stupid questions, but I tried to learn and not say that if that's the case, then I'll leave you.

I'm talking about your support for users - it's zero ...
We have drawn conclusions, reviews on the site about your manners will be compiled. The review will be like a miner without user support..
And yes, you are right, the competition is huge, and other miners are immediately ready to support their customers.
A very interesting opinion. I use Hive OS, and to add failover pools there you need to make a few mouse clicks. And if you cannot read the readme file and add the necessary settings to the bat file, then mining is not for you. The developers don't owe you anything.

This is another reason why I believe gaming on a console is so much cheaper than PC gaming without having to worry about low fps and whatnot...now imagine having to invest in a GPU just to get better video memory or fps with lots of money for a used item that can die any time... and also the worst part about buying these products is that they are not covered by a warranty if you will be importing them from some other part of the world, in a nutshell, some bad business practice from our Chinese friends to be honest needs not to be supported.
You can find scams everywhere where the price is cheap, such as selling cheap cars at auctions in the US, where people can check the car only after purchase. In China, there are new and used good video cards with a guarantee, but not everyone is satisfied with a 10-20% discount.

I would take the hashrate of 5 miners and their Doge profit on each pool, and I would get real income on each pool.
If the statistics are closed, then the addresses of the mining pools can be easily found, and you will find out the addresses of the miners.
