My electricity cost is pretty high so do you think it would be smarter to buy a 1070/1080 or a AMD RX 480 8GB?

I know the NVidia cards are better when it comes to power usage so I just wanted to see what you guys think.

Unlike traditional banking where clients have only a few account numbers, with Bitcoin people can create an unlimited number of accounts (addresses). This can be used to easily track payments, and it improves anonymity.

What are you mining and how many cards?

If want to mine ETH, don't get the 1080. The memory is not as good as on the other GTX 10 models. I get 25 MH/s. The 1070 gets ~30 MH/s and the 1060 ~24 MH/s and those are cheaper than a 1080. The 1080 Ti gets ~37 MH/s but is $700+. The 1080 is good for ZEC though, I get 550 H/s at 70% TDP. The GTX 1070 is currently the best overalll Nvidia card for the price IMO.
