GPU mining will die in 2018!

[Philippines]

I see day by day, ASICS of many coins are launching, individually or multiple. Chinese companies are trying to kill the GPU mining market once again cause they are greedy, just like they did to Bitcoin and Litecoin. GPU Mining died in 2013 and was resurrected in 2015 with the Cryptocoins Generation 2.0, although many of you miners just started mining on 2016 due to huge pumps on those 2.0 cryptocoins.

As Cryptocoins got more popular than in 2011 - 2013. The new generation of Cryptocoins 2015 and afterwards are endangered by ASICS once again, and 2018 looks to be the year of per the title "GPU mining will die in 2018!".

Keep in mind that there are possible ASICS for ethash already for Q1, and even if ETH goes POS, ETC and other ethash coins will be only ASICS and if that happens only Equihash coins will be minable for a time and I have a word that there is already an ASIC in development for Equihash already and will start delivering in Q4 2018. As GPU mining keep gets scarce, other popular coins will have pumps and so ASICS will be born for them.

I want to know your thoughts about it and I wonder the limits of --> "where, there is money to be made, there is greedy"

Keep in mind that this price crashing we are seeing is due also to the fear of ASICS for most GPU mining coins.

I do not think it will happened for me this is just a FUD like what people say that BTC will die . I am not into mining because it's cost too much for me but I am  not able to GPU will die .

Are CPU Only coins the future? To keep Miner Decentralization?
Or will mining always inevitably become more and more centralized?

BiblePay is the best CPU Only coin I know of, are there others?

metroid doesnt own any coins but follows since 2009 and insults people and calls them trolls.

hehe.

metroid the nocoiner.

I used to hate metroid, but he is the only one who predicted Asics for Ethash, and he gives good advices to buy coins

I never hated Metroid, although I think he still goes overboard on his opinions at times, but I'll always welcome what he has to say.  Feb-1 ETH was over $1100 ... Apr-1 it was $370ish ... If you know anything about ETH, it was an obvious buy at $400.  And if you don't know anything about ETH, losing 2/3's of it's value should have caused you to look into it and buy it.

I love to know the new GPU mining coin. so I can mine more for less difficulty.
I came to know new----- PoWer coin(PWR)----> Going to POW GPU + CPU mining on 14th May , good to know their developers to get tricks from community https://discord.gg/D9rsP2Q

Bitmain has become what it is because USA let it, blame the USA for China closing the gap on the economy. USA was an industrial powerhouse and most of it went to China and Bitmain and many were born hehe

China also has a strategic advantage over the US due to supply base.  Time/cost from supply to end user and china's workforce willingness to work for lower wages plays a big part in it and US had little to do with that.

lol.

no hes not, i've seen dozens and dozens of people say this shit dating back to early 2017.

metroid doesn't have any coins, i bet hes sad he didnt take his own "advices". .

hehe.

Everything I said here about asics, the price crash and then the price going up again was right, I always say that I hope I'm never right but in the end I'm always right which is very sad. The only thing I was wrong was with the cryptonight miner which I told there was no plans for that but the interesting thing is, the only developers that announced a hard fork to counter bitmain and co was monero and others followed, so in turn in a way i ended up right too about that cause if eth and zec developers don't block asics then you will still be able to mine monero with gpus which is a good thing.

I wished I was wrong about everything I said here but it is very sad I was not.

It won't be a good thing, if the majority of the gpu hash power is on xmr.

Now, it's time to die, the days of GPUs are ending

[keskass]

why is chinese so dominating huh ?? from global games to crypto, they seem to be the benchmark for all the major products.
Is it because they have a lot of players

It's such an interesting dynamic... AMD dominates CN(v7). Nvidia's are in trouble... will be interesting to see how all this plays into global demand; may end up benefiting AMD.

seems right now even "mining" cards are 95% stock video cards, just with no display connectors. everything else is the same except maybe the bios.

i wonder how far a REAL mining card could be stripped down if it didnt need to conform to the pcie spec physically and electrically.  only needs a 1x pcie connector, a few pcie power connectors, a GPU, memory and few glue chips and thats it. so it could be much less expensive, fit into smaller (non standard mining only) cases, reach higher rates (tweaked memory and timings and controllers, say 512 bits wide or something [if that can be done i gather memory bus is baked into the gpu, but maybe bank switching or something can be done]). twice the compute power in half the space. would be sweet.

just need someone to step up and order bare gpu dies and go to town.

With the bitmain antminers keeps dropping on it seems to be the case, at least for the GPUs mining !

Not sure what everyone is talking about?

I mine on my cellphone also and it pulls it at least $5 a day.

Then my watch, that is about another $2

Then you figure around $3 per card...

Not dying. Hopefully people keep selling and I keep buying.
