How to mine Bitcoin Gold?

[agente]

12.5 BTG every 10 minutes = 1800 BTG issued per day = 1800 x $400 = $720,000 in BTG subsidy per day

Compared with ZEC:

10 ZEC every 2.5 minutes = 5760 ZEC per day = 5760 x $250 = $1,440,000 in ZEC subsidy per day

The only one's guaranteed to make money of this BTG scam are the Dev's with their 100,000 BTG premine, pool operators, and NiceHash. All while you fight over crumbs with all the other plebs. You will be better off mining on NiceHash since there will be plenty of noobs stupid enough to buy Equihash hash to mine this shit coin.

So your saying this calculator is a lie?

Calculators now based on testnet difficulty. You have to use it when mainnet running with mainnet difficulty..
And yes.. of course you are not going to do 400usd/day with 1 1070

Yeah that's what I was wondering.  Seems like a big scam just like the Antminer D3.  Once everyone starts mining, profits will be negative !!!

Probably worse than negative, I calculated earlier that a 1070 mining BTG would yield about 0.0000005 BTG's per day, that worked out to be about one penny at current price of $400 USD.

Mining BTG will never be profitable for anyone,

BTG is only profitable for the scammers who created the shit-coin, and made the ICO, and pre-mined.

A penny a day mining equihash?

U decide zencash at $1.50/day, or BTG for  a penny a day, the choice is yours.

IMHO when 99% of moron-miners are on BTG the next month the difficulty for most of our z-coins might plummet???

YEAH

BTG can recalculate difficulty after every block.
I think first block will found by dev and enthusiasts, after this diff will be recalculated to compite with zcash and etc

[Vann]

The difficulty adjustment is to maintain a 10 minute block time and keep the mining subsidy issuance at a constant level. Adustment after every block makes it harder for large farms to to game the difficulty by coming in and out to fast mine the coin before the difficulty can retarget.

Buy some good cards,1070 up but i recommend 1080ti.I will surely mine this coin it has a lot of potential.

For poor people such as me in a 3rd world , would 3GB GTX1060 cut it ?
I have RX470 x1 and plan to buy another RX470 mining edition one or either just a GTX1060 i dont know really what the better is.
This is all i can afford.
 I was looking at then getting another later like in 1 month OR just wait and buy a GTX1070.... not sure.
Thing is, and keep in mind, pricing for these cards here not like in the US where everything always seems way cheaper.
No idea why .

I think the 1070 will do better with bitcoin gold. Just get what u can afford, the more ram the better from what I am reading!

[brownfly]

anybody can explain me, how to mine BTG at a pool, while there is no official BTG wallet is released yet and thus - there is no BTG wallet address to use??? I see that there is generators for testnet(s), it makes sense, but for mainnet - none.

[random_miner]

Can anybody let me know, or share any link how to BTC address are converted to BTG address?

Or we should use new BTG address for any security reasons ?

Try this one.

[brownfly]

I saw that and it looks really suspicious for me, since giving your seed phrase is equivalent to giving your private key for your btc wallet.
For BTG addresses they said that prefix will be different, so we will need new BTG addresses and (correct me if I am wrong) there is no "conversion".

Cannot recommend to use your laptop for mining. Setup a small mining rig of your choice and do mining.
