Selling Amd 470 and 480 and holding the btc is a good move.

Or cashing 1/2 the btc and holding 1/2 cash 1/2 btc

subbed.

Yes, Definitely a wave of new people and the same questions over and over again.... Was quite a ride especially as profitability spiraled downwards.

My main curiosity is:  Are the whales and bigger fish going to pull out of the alt to consolidate or exchange to fiat during the wave the fork will cause?

Or....

Will it be the opposite, seeing alts surge at the last minute right before BTC does its transition?

I'm also wondering what the bubble is going to be like when the waves of mining/deep learning GPU's will hit the market in the next years time....  will it be more of a pop or a growing one?

Well my thoughts are this Nvidia is positioning to be the king of gpu mining.
They have much deeper pockets then AMD.

The 1080 ti is a ZEC killer and at the moment I type  Zec is ranked at 14 for coins
I see a big upside for ZEC
http://coinmarketcap.com/




Ya, i agree that Nvidia may take over on the GPU mining, just hope the market doesnt dry up like the AMD side did....
today was a rare double pay day... maybe triple at the rate of return on coins at the current moment.. Equihash has been super for me today..

How exactly was it a double pay day? my returns are about the same every day  Huh What pool are you using?

Wow awesome, 24 amps. Do you think I could connect like 10 fans then? They only use 1.9 amps each

if you buy this
the 6 jacks are fused at 15 amps.  so 6 x 1.9 = 11.4  is safe.

the 2  heavey jacks are fused beyond the ability of the mfj unit.

but I think you could double up  on 2  of the heavy duty jacks


  you can do 8 for sure..


with the mfj unit

my guess is 10 would be okay.

1 fan each on the heavy duty jacks = 3.8
6 fans on the six lite duty jacks =  11.4

8 and 15.2    each jack single duty.

put 2 more on the heavy duty is adding 3.8

total of 19 amps






use these  to hook up to the tenma

I was on zpool, was a really odd day... equihash was showing super high profit... so i turned my cards full blast on that day to get as much as i could, earnings have tapered back off to normal since that day...

1070's are still good?  Why would you sell them.  You can many anything on those.  People are selling ETH specific gear like AMD cards but along with that comes all their standard gears too.

Thanks for everyone who gave me tips on my 4GPU rig resetting.  Turned out to be a card that I could previously clock to +200 core I can now only clock it to +50 core.  Could be because I moved it from a large PCI-e slot on a newish motherboard to a Riser on an oldish motherboard.  Or just could be random that its not happy anymore.  Either way its working fine now.


For my 1080ti's that are in the slots of the motherboard they are clipped in at the far end so they cant move.  But even a small bump could cause them to tip up out of the slot at the backplate end.  Do you guys do anything about this or just make sure the rig cant be bumped?  I would like to secure it somehow.

 Never owned that one, but I've worked with a lot of MFJ gear over the years - they tend to very solid designs that last a long time.


I'm no longer legendary just in my own mind!

I wrote a guide here on mining with nicehash.exe or single coin mining zcash with EWBF.  THis is probably the best use of your card.  YOu could also mine Eth but Zcash is much more profitable right now.

This guide will step by step you through setting up EWBF to mine zcash.  Has links to all the things you need to download as well as example bat files etc.  I wrote if for my noob friends so if you have some basic understanding it will be simp[el for you.

Phil - where do I safely download the latest Core wallet -- my version is 0.13 and its not the latest. I want to offload all balance I have in Polo and Bitrex. Thanks!

Bought some more cheap ETH today.
And took new positions in MAID and XRP.
A lot of panic selling happening now, so getting key coins cheap.
I think this is a once in a lifetime opportunity if you are a investor, just like in the stock market.

If I provided you good and useful info or just a smile to your day, consider sending me merit points to further validate this Bitcointalk account ~ useful for future account recovery...
