he talk about the one with 11gpbs, still i don't like amd cuz can't mine some low hash profitable coin like nexus spreadcoin veltor etc, their miner is not on par with nvidia for these coins, probably because private miners are a plague there more than nvidia

it's depend they can be both comparable, solo mining bitcoin for example is effectively like gambling, the less hash you have the more of a gamble is

normal minig on the other hand have low risk and lower reward, but if it's profitable it's always better than gambling, especially with a big farm, because buying is cheaper than earning it with gambling or trading which i find them to be the same thing

and pose no risk to your investment, well with asic there is more risk yes, but gpu have no virtual risk, they are very safe to buy and use

it can't stay constant, for the simply reason that bitcoin was done in a way to become big or vanish due to the block reward and the deflationary nature, like satoshi said

right now it look like bitcoin might have a bright future, if you think about this same question that was done prior to the last block reward, where many were thinkign that no price increase would have happened but then we had a great increase

the same will happen in 2020, another great stable increase and new bottom will be set, i like the rule of addding a 0 to each new halving, the value should in theory be around 10k as a new bottom

not sure, a quantum computer with the Grover’s algorithm have better possibility to resolve a collision than normal computer wer have today, they might pose a threat, and they are not so far away in the future like many think

i'm not enterily sure about the privacy of vpn they keep the log and can share if forced to do so

in any case if there is a possibility that your isp will block bitcoin, any proxy will do it fine, all this control they are trying to put on the world is detrimental and will do more damage than anything

and also this for now is not supported on other country and on some never will be, but i would take this opportunity and think that bitcoin really need his own private internet with a big mesh network or something, isp internet are not decentralized enough

even better for me, i didn't had any fiat to begin with, and all my money were generated from altcoin and bitcoin, i keep them here they are much safer than in any bank, i do have a bank account though..

basically 100% crypto but i did dump here and there to buy foods and other stuff that require fiat, still dreaming of a world where i can pay with bitcoin only or some altcoin too

this is not a bubble, it's more like a liquidity explosion or new money influx take your, there are many new investors coming in this world, thanks to bitcoin recent surge

some of them are too naive to think that altcoin can be a safe haven in case bitcoin go down, in fact this bubble started when bitcoin tanked

but notice that only dash and etehreum are big enough to make the whole marketcap very significant, without those coins the whole marketcap would still look tiny

it's pretty clear that the money would move to altcoin, you see the  last dump caused a spike in all the big alt like etheruem and dash, this time won't be different

besides i don't think the value will ever go below 1/4($300-350) of what it is know, because it would be under the electricity cost of the miners, miners will pump the coin long before it happen

not with that volume, you can't dump

so this guide is pretty neat https://blockgen.net/setup-your-own-mining-pool/, come in handy for x11 coin too with my asic

i don't know how to do it, there is a guide or something around?

i mean ccminer don't support it i tried to mine woodcoin and machinecoin in solo but it's no use

you can't solo mine any coins that is based on the last version of bitcoin core, because ccminer don't have getwork implemented

apparently more and more coins are using this and in the future solo will be dead if this will not be addressed

and bitcoin core don't even support rotation such as 192.168.1.*, i don't know if remotely you can go with 192.168.1.0/24...i need it for my vware scamcoin machine

obviously it can't mine, here everythign function with internet if you have no connection there is no mining and no bitcoin

but the good thing is that you can have your usb stick and connect just fine with it when connection go down from ISP

how can someone know if those small coins were not used for illegal activity like monero in the deepweb for example? monero is also not traceable?

this could lead to a problem of supporting without knowing criminal activity and put you in trouble, if they ever find out

i guess tainted bitcoin also apply for altcoin... the same can apply to many other coins, there are simply to many to keep track of all of them

mienrs have plenty of profit with the current reward and value of each coins, they don't need any fee actually that is a premium for them now, but since they are greedy they alwaays want more

just do the math for yourself, there are 1800 coins mined each day, this is $2M in revenue, the cost of electricity is around 1/4 $500k per day, plenty of room for profit

well remember what ghandi said, first they ignore you etc...? this apply perfectly to bitcoin, those people that ignore it at first raising the unbelievable excuses that bitcoin is for terrorist that bitcoin is dead etc...

are the same people that later jump in the bull run when it's already too late, they are the so called fish, that help the whales make their dirty pump and dump

some of them don't even know that bitcoin is limited, and rare, and has a deflationary course

a single entity can't destroy the coins, the title is misleading, bitcoin last time i've checked is decentralized for a reason, to avoid trusting someone who cna disrupt the entire project

if then there are people that work together to force the consensus on certain direction, they will end up with their own fork, roger and other have no power here, only exchange decide and miners to an extent

mine was 0.15 btc in 30 hours or so, but something is wrong with the earning or the diff adjust is very slow

if you look at the net only yes, but take a look at the diff retarget i don't know if it's fast enough to catch the net, so don't look at the net only
