Fifth alt coin thread last four got too big.

[rs1x]

it's hard to find where to bet..
Most of the time there is no particular reason for an asset to earn so much more than another ...

I think QuintLeo will hate me for this   .... but this is a 200b industry and so there's plenty for everyone.

Hot Crypto Coin Early Warning System

1. Track volume trading at exchange (usually Bitrex or Cryptopia).... if its in Top 10 Volume traded - we may have a fine winner - at this point you can apply any other skills you have to evaluate potential coins.

2. Keep track of tpruvot and sp_ ANN/bitcointalk for new ccminer forks usually to specifically mine new hot coins. Dev like sp_ sells his miner usually faster and efficient.  

3. Keep track of yimp and zpool for new coins, if you want BTC payout follow zpool, otherwise yimp to mine outright coins.

4. Golden rule: Dont fall in love with altcoins (other than BTC, ETH blah blah blah)  


SOOTHA - refer to rule #4 - mine for profits to fund coins with good fundamentals - the hype is irrelevant. NEO will be huge with 78x projection... Microsoft is getting cozy with them because its basically propped up as the China's Ethereum...

Thanks for sharing some tips. I for one appreciate it.

this Z220 mobo has 4 open PCI-16x or 1x

this is good idea using used desktop to build 3-4 x GPU rigs with external PSU.

I think you can even use a Y power cord 13A so that you get the PC and PSU powered up at the same time.

Phil - your ebay Windows licenses cheaper than this below?

OEM version of Windows 10 professional for $25:
http://www.kinguin.net/r/Win10ProOEM

I am still getting free licensed W10.

Install 7;  Activate, Update all present system updates to sp1 and a little beyond.

take original W10 ISO on USB and run setup in win7;  choose upgrade.

when win10 finishes,  it is automatically activated.

I have set up about 15 systems in the last few months with this exact process.


FYI:
1) if you use a finnicky "activator" such as "autokms", it will fail somewhere along the line; possibly after it talks to the internet the first time.  A few people have found this out for me.

2) If you use the wrong version of windows 7 (one of those auto-activating hack install ISO's, the wrong version of 7 Ultimate (regkey), or something along those lines);  It will fail activation once online.


I found both of these out from errors others were having with my process.

I have personally confirmed it to work by using the 7 ultimate trial; an OEM licensing/activating tool (for dell, Acer, Compaq, Etc), and the same process above.  Worked like a champ.  I do this on OEM machines like thinkpads because it's their utility for licensing/activating Win7 XD.

comes tomorrow I will post the build on thurs.

the parts in this unit  

cpu - a xeon worth 118 on eBayhttp://www.ebay.com/itm/Intel-Xeon-E3-1240-V2-3-40GHz-Quad-Core-SR0P5-Socket-1155-Server-CPU-Processor-/361950324725?

ram  - 8gb worth 30 on eBay http://www.ebay.com/itm/8GB-Kingston-KVR13R9D8-8-Server-Memory-RAM-Registered-w-Parity-ECC-DDR3-SDRAM-/252811869382?

gpu -  yeah has one worth 50 bucks on eBay


hdd 500 gb worth 25 on eBay



legit win 10 pro - cost more then 50

 http://www.ebay.com/itm/New-Sealed-Microsoft-Windows-10-Pro-64-Bit-System-Builder-OEM-FQC-08289-Win10-/222472431623?


I know many ways to get win 10 at a low cost.
Jared's ways works.

but that server for 208 in my case with a coupon is a good deal even with only 3 gpu slots.

Hey philipma1957, I always read your topics and I really like and follow a lot of things you said until now, and I want to thank you because I'm in profit
I have a small rig ( 2GTX 1070 and a 1060), I'm just looking to buy to 4th card to complete my rig

You are in the cryptos for a long time and my doubt is: Every end of the year (Nov Dec), is it true that people capitalize the money, in fiat currency and the market goes down for a month o two, because the holidays etc?
I'm trying to make a plan here
My rig is small but I'm investing some money directly to the coins too

Thank you

Very General rules below

USA people like myself  tend to sell off in Jan not Nov or Dec.

If I sell 10,000 in coin  for a 8,000 profit in Nov. or Dec.  2017

When I file for taxes in April 2018  I will owe tax on the 8000 and have to pay it no later then April 2018

If sell 10,000 in coin  for 8,000 in Jan 2018  When I file for taxes in April 2018  I am filing for the year 2017

Since I sold the coin in Jan 2018  I do have to pay by the time  I file in  April 2019


So USA guys sell off in January  Not Nov or Dec.

You are welcome.  Many times  you see stock market pumps in the usa in NOV and DEC  with a JAN sell off.

The first  super BTC pump  was in  sep 2013 to dec 2013  it was  90 to 1100    and we slumped In Jan  but that slump lasted a long time.





Okay back to new build this piece came today.

https://flash.newegg.com/product/9SIA5YV5JB7967


I opened it and  it has 3  slots  2x 16 pcie  1x 16 pcie

so it can run  3  gpus with ease.

Today is my 31st wedding anniversary  so I will not be posting much today.

[sNaKeyz0r91]

Citronick, a few weeks ago you recommended to mine CHC. It was about 0.70$. Right now is half, at about 0.34$.
What's your suggestion? Does this coin have a future? I should go to 1000 coins and start a masternode?

Regards,
John

The masternode feature is quite good and its also cheap to own a CHC masternode.

However, CHC I think is a long term hold since this coin is still being resurrected with comeback of the original devs.

Guys I am not a financial advisor or expert in crypto currency -  I use a simple strategy below.

I invest in certain coins that i want to hold for long term - example NEO and others.

The short term ones are acquired by mining - and I use the proceeds from mining to buy more shares of the coins i want to  hold long term.

Shared this on how to spot new hot coins  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2019146.msg20717397#msg20717397

CHC was one of the new hot coins back then and I mined a big amount in the early days using 22 x 1080tis.

I have sold most of CHC to buy more NEO but I kept about 1k CHC for long term.

Now I am mining SIGT, XVG and BTS.... for profits to buy more NEO.

Again I am not a financial advisor of any sort -- I use the 1080tis to mine for profits, and as one of my funding streams into my long term coins portfolio (1 year hold).

Good luck and mine on!

if you get your hands on win10 ltsb it will never update.  It will still get security patches, but no updates to knock out the activator.

Well;  I myself am pointing out a way to get fully legitimate copies of W10.   If you happen to have the OEM licensing ability for win7, then this is a win-win for a pathway to legitimate windows 10
