I recently got a new computer with GTX 1070. I have been tinkering with mining, but have been checking WhatToMine fairly frequently. This is starting to hurt my home life for only about 1.50 USD per day, profit. getting up at 5:30 am to check what I should be mining isn't helping either.
Any suggestions on what a more balanced strategy would be? The nagging from my partner is starting to increase...
PS: I've already limited my choices between Nicehash, ZCash, Zencash, Hush, and Bitcoinz. But even toggling between these 4 options is taking an inordinate amount of my time.
Don't bounce around,
Equihash is best, and zencash has been the best for weeks and zen.suprnova.cc is the best pool,
Yep, the 1070 will net about 480 sols/sec if u optimize, that be $2 / day, so you probably not pay for electricity
This is a hobby dude, did U think ppl actually make money??
The money is in pull shit-coins out of your ass pre-mining, and pump&dump, miners don't make money, they just throw cash into the toilet on electricity bills

U don't bounce around as good pools like suprnova.cc want u to stick around at least 24 hours, if you bounce then you'll always get NO where, zen-cash has been best for past month, 2-3 months ago ethereum was best, now its shit, I think that equihash will be best for GPU ppl for a long time,
At one card U don't have enough power to accumulate coin,
I thinks its good to say accumulate zen-cash, say each mining rig six 1060-3 @ 1800 sols/sec, $10/day, that be 0.5 Zencash a day, one every two days, 45 per month, then u can setup secure-nodes and make a stedy income of free coins.
WIth one card your only getting 0.05, which means about 1 zen a month, it will take years
So now U have a hobby, U must decide if your going to go to the next level, or sell your gpu card and get your money back??
Good news is u can get yoru money back, ppl who buy BITMAIN D3's don't even get their money back, they just keep bat anchors that gen no profit
