I'm glad I didn't buy any more video cards, a 1080ti barley makes $1 a day

[Digital Drug Lord]

I only bought 1 1080ti. If I would have bought a rig I would be I the red and very upset

Many people bought rigs and were expecting to break even just on a few months while prices were surging but alt prices quickly started dropping. The profitability of cards hindered. Perhaps some could make profit by selling back cards but the market would be saturated in that case too. Profit altcoin mining is once again going down so all in all I don't think this trend is a reliable way to make money.

2016. was the year to get into mining. After that GPU prices went up and mining difficulty followed. Now GPU prices are still high along with the difficulty plus crypto prices are going down. There are no reasons anymore to become a small miner because you can earn more by buying cryptos now while they are at a "discount" and hodling. I see very many people selling their relatively new mining rigs.

[maxmeme]

Actually GPU prices only went up at the end of Dec 2017 and before that, GPUs can be purchased at MSRP or discount prices. Those who buys with these prices already ROI and those who started mining since 2016 is making a lot of profits. The down trend will continue and it will cause massive sales of GPU for those who bought at current prices as it is not sustainable.

If your 1080ti is only making $1 a day you are doing something wrong. I know people running a single 1080ti and they are making $3-$5 per day. Where are you getting your information or what are you mining and on what settings? That $3-$5 per day figure is without running the card intense, unless you consider 65c and 76% TDP to be anything except conservative.

You're doing something wrong if your goal is primarily to make the most $ per day. Maybe we can help you figure it out and optimize.

My 1060 is almost at $1/day and I'm not trying for the most profitable coin. Somethings off.

That's exactly what I'm thinking. I just checked with someone else's machine that is running an old 980TI, that thing is getting over $1 a day by itself. The 1080TI should be about twice as profitable, or something around there. 6G vs 11G should not end with the same result.

Each of my 1080 (non TI) is making around $1.86 usd per day.  Something is wrong with the original scenario.


Call me greedy but Im waiting for the nervous people to flood the market with used GPU's which will greatly push prices down.  Ill gladly turn my 20 GPU mini farm into a 100 GPU farm.  I can turn it off when profits goto shit and I can turn it back on when profits go up. I pAY 4.8 cents kw/h.

this ia why we werec laughing when people were paying $1k for a 1080ti and $450 to $600 for a 580

yup How i feel i have solar I'm buying any cheap miner i come across there dumping because of the price drop . gonna mine an hold so far it's working.

this ia why we were laughing when people were paying $1k for a 1080ti and $450 to $600 for a 580

I thought that was kind of stupid to do. i stop buying AMD Cards back in Sep or Oct and Switched to NV cards , an a month ago I bought one of the last 1070 ti bundles  off evaga  for like 499 now all they have on sell  is  1080ti bundle for 1100 or more......... Not buying any more CPU's new or used unless there dirt cheap and the new ones are due out around Aug SEP,  so i ll mine and hold .

they are alrwdy dropping but pls be smart and pay msp
$269 max for a good 580 8gb, $399 for a 1070ti etc

do not overpay

It's always been like this. If you take a look at the price chart of a coin for the last few months, the market fluctuates every few months and of course 2018 is not 2017. To me, 2018 is more like 2015.

The good thing that will come out of this is a cooling of the GPU market that was overheating for the last 8-12 months.

If you do a bit or market research, the same GPU that you bought some time last year was almost 30-40% cheaper than the same GPU you will buy today although newer models have entered the market in the mean time.
This has never made sense when it comes to IT&C products, the normal trend has always been for them to be cheaper because of the new technology being rolled in.

Mining has artificially inflated prices but a correction on the GPU market was also expected for a while now.

I think everyone is waiting and with the market tanking like it is, we should start to see more come up as people have to shut down due to prices

[lunobird]

Yep 1070 ti for $609 on amazon.  Last month it used to be $750+

Kiss your gpu premiums good bye.  Better dump fast b/c weak hands or smart hands,  will dump their gpu and coins.  $1 dollar a day or less on earnings is horribly way of earning money,  Sell your cards and focus back on your career building skills instead. Money better spent.

Investing is risky, but there is no opportunity to make money without investing. Conservatism sometimes has to endure poverty.

That sounds like a great plan for someone that afford to have a bunch of GPU's sitting around doing nothing (Because power has exceeded profit) or Because they cant afford having the GPU's not making them X amount of $$$ a day so they have to sell their whole rig.  A smart person would mine the hell out of those GPU's and wait for the coins to be worth more later when the market shoots up.  For people that earn Btc (Nicehash, etc.) with their mining, their earnings will be worth substantially more later if they can sit on the Btc for maybe 6 months...or 2 years.  Its all a gamble but the rewards are better than any other financial instrument or stock currently.

How about I give you $365 ($1 for each day of the year then) lol....

Mine like there is no tomorrow!
