Hi all,
I run a Saas business that is getting close to v0.1 and am looking for early feedbacks & beta testers. I previously missed this sub-forum for
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=14.0, which is not very active.
Anyway, we are building a tool that helps with the management of mining operations. The main idea is that as miners, we should be in control of our pools & rigs, and shouldn't have to entrust our coins to one particular pool. We initially planned to stay in incognito mode until alpha release is ready but following the NiceHash hack, we thought it may be best to announce the idea earlier, get some community interests and early feedbacks.
Our business model.
* Freemium, try to get as many users as we can into the system. If you check out the landing page, the Founders Edition pricing pretty much **just** covers the operating cost. I started mining as a hobbyist, and it's just fair to my past self to give this gift for free.
* Our main revenue source is from larger-scale miners, who want or need more sophisticated tools.
* Behind the scene, GX is really an AI company. We want to build the most advanced mining solution, then branch out to other fields. To do that, we'll need a lot of data, experience, and friends. And when we thought of it, crypto miners are probably the best friends we hope to have in the AI world Smiley
I have a few questions for you:
* As a miner, how do you feel about the general idea of the project?
* Does this project appeal to your need, will you sign up? If not, what's your main hesitation?
* Are you willing to pay for this kind of service? If so, what's a fair price point for you? If not, why not?
* What other features that you think may be useful for this kind of project.
I'll be hanging around this thread to answer any questions. Thanks for your time.
Cheers,
Here are the project details:
GPU Exchange - Crypto Mining Made Easy
URL:
https://gpu.exchangeFeatures* Mine with any pools
* Automatically switch mining algorithms to always mine the best coin.
* Powerful dashboard & real-time stats
* Centralised control of your mining rigs.
* Open-source agent. => Trust no one, including us
* Predict coin price to optimise for selling time. (Mostly applicable to large-scale miners)
* Automatic cashout via supported pool & exchanges (Planning to support PoloniEx in v0.1 because those guys have good API). In terms of security, your API key will never reach our server.
To use NiceHash as an example, mining directly with your pools via GX will give you higher earning (no NH commission). However, you will need to reach minimum earning by each pool instead of getting credit immediately for a piece of work. If you mine at a medium/large scale, this probably will be more profitable for you.
Another key benefit of using a service like this is less dependency on any pool if they go down.
