Started mining again. Made 3 euro the last 12 hours with my 4 GPUs (1080 ti, 1080, 1080, 1070). That's terrible...

The most profitable bitcoins I ever mined, were the ones I mined when it was unprofitable to do so.

think about it


I did. It's true.. When the coin increases in value. When it doesn't...

thanks god some of the fucktards stop mining and hopefully they will dump their gpus on the second market, so real miners can benefit from it

This message is full of anger, but actually, I would like to see hobby miners selling their cards so that we prices will finally get back to normal.

I can assure you it is not bought. I used to own a faucet and stuff loooooong time ago...

I used to be positive like you, but now I am not. When I started mining I made 3 euro a day with just 1 GPU. For me it has never been this bad.
The world has changed, that's why I think BTC won't rise that much anymore. It's not a bad thing -crypto will never die, but for me it is not making me enough money anymore. Good thing is I have a few GPUs for when I buy my Oculus. Cheesy

I'm certainly going to keep some good gpu's for VR when I decide call it quits with gpu mining.

Ok, I want you to walk back in there and very calmly, very politely tell the risk assessors to fuck off! -Mark Baum

Great minds think alike. Is the Oculus still the best on the market atm?

As difficulty and price fall is there in the market so your profit will be less now. Once the value of every crypto currencies back in action we will find its value grown more than any investment option in crypto investment.
Hope you do not demotivate yourself in this time. Have to wait for some months to find the profit in USD calculation still in crypto value it is profitable. Am I right buddy.

My 1080ti, 2x 1080 and 1070 made 12 euro during the last 24 hours.

12 euros.. That's almost next to nothing when substracting the power and transaction costs.


I'm shutting down my miner for a few weeks. Is anyone else taking these drastic measurements, or am I the only one?
I must confess that I don't believe BTC will go up again soon... (sorry to the believers here, no disrespect intended).



Did you shut down for a while? If you didn't, did you sell your coins cheap? I guess my point is, look how fast things change! If you kept mining, and held your coins until now, you would have made just as much money as if the coins had never dropped in the first place.

I started mining a few weeks ago.. Earnings are up, but still not as good as I'd wish. Let us hope BTC will keep going up....

Hope you can still earn from this, I have actually read some of the miners said that its kinda hard for them to earn in mining at this point.

Its all a question about income and the electric bill.
Check if you can outsource your rigs.

It is profitable at a much higher rate than that. I am still making a few hundred a month at .127 after electric costs.  I have no plan to stop mining even if it ends up break even or a littler loss.  I have been holding for a long time since paying off all my rigs.  I will patiently mine and hold till other give up and prices begin to rise again.

sad that bitcoin has to have an over inflated price of over $17,000 for mining to be profitable

this is the true price of many coins

you just need to mine the right stuff, for example ipbc first day with the good 10k blocks Grin
my effort for 23h mining = ~23k coins = ~1500$@current rate Grin

Honestly, mining profitability has been very good for the past couple months.  Even at the lowest dip from like 2 weeks ago, profitability was overall very good. 

Right now my 6x 1060 rig is generating close to $9 a day.  At one point it was down below $5 but that was a couple months ago.  Yeah it will take some time to pay off any new rigs but its absolutely stupid to shut down the rigs you already posses unless you are paying like 50 cents kwh.
