What are you mining?

[lite_]

A little bit of everything.

[iwanttomine]

Anyone have experience in mining with Altera DE1 ?

[jace_martin]

Litecoins with the gpu and whatever the flavor of the day is with the cpu. I try to read up on all the news I can for any and all coins and decide which one I am going to work on for a few days. Being a newbie I am still evaluating a lot of different communities centered around each coin and the tech benefits/advancements of each coin. There sure is a lot to digest.

mining doge and casinocoin. both solid as far as staying fairly level as far as profitability plus its nice to see all the dogecoin roll in while you mine. gives some nice vindicatuion.  i dont know how far doge will go but im selling some and keeping some while i mine.  mined a bit of netcoin too, not bad. its profitability is good periodically

[harry_88]

dogecoin and i love it ...................wooh wooh
till date best crypto and it gonna boom cryptocurrency market.......

[CaptainBeck]

Doge right now.

For some reason the coin is profitable and there is plenty of volume for the coin to move.

I usually stick to mining coins that have not yet hit exchanges and although some are still yet to hit exchanges I've made a killing with my 2200kh/s mining coins such as COL, TIX, ADT, NET, LK7 and more recently DOGE and CAT upon release and before they hit exchanges.

What I do is more risky than setting my coins on an LTC pool and hoping for the best. And yes I've wasted days/weeks mining coins that will never hit exchanges such and BitcoinScrypt, TINcoin and the Sci-Fi coins(still holding and hoping on these) but its definitely safe so say I've done better this way.

I am always on the lookout for an opportunity to mine a coin that is relatively new and only available to one of the more obscure lower volume exchanges, this is how I made a couple of BTC from around a week mining Applecoin when it was only tradeable on the Chinese exchange btc-8.com.

Currently I'm mining a newish coin that has recently hit a newish exchange but doesn't seem to have as much attention as the DOGEs and the EACs. I'm keep the name of the coin to myself for the moment since buy orders for this coin are quite scarce at the minute so I suspect it might not last long.........

Very insightful information! May I ask how you pick out which coins to mine and which to ignore? Thanks!

I am still quite new to the mining aspect of crypto-coins and very surprised that there are so many alternatives to Bitcoin which I tried to mine ages ago but didn't get it going.

But now I have got Litecoin mining operating successfully. I only have an ordinary workstation and use the GPU running Cudaminer. I only achieve a hash rate of 175k so this is hardly economic.

I have traded BTC and LTC using a trading programme called Plus500.
I have traded normal foreign currencies for years and enjoy it as a challenge, it hasn't made me rich or poor.

Good Mining. May your hashrates be high

Yeah I actually almost got into Bitcoin back in 2011 but then ended up not doing it because of all the people and sites claiming that it's no longer profitable to mine and the low exchange rate. I regret it every day!

GPU:  EAC and DOGE
CPU:  MOL

yeh I know, my friend who is a developer and I sat down together about months ago and brainstormed bitcoin as a 'thing' about six months ago when it was $30 US . ugh.

But as a trader I know that there are always plenty of future opportunities and the rule to be applied is "Could've, would've, should've, DIDN'T".
Move on seek out the next.

I had been mining some PPC with my old equipment. This thread opened my eyes to lots of possibilities, worthwhile reading. Thanks

[cerleo]

There may be some possibilities for mining.Right now there are quite a lot of alt coins so there's quite a wide choice.

[jeliman]

I do a bitcoin solo mining with 2 USB erupters haha, I know the odds but I´ve always been lucky, besides trying solo Litecoin on CPU, painfully slow (just few khashes) but luck (force) is with me and I can feel it

btw the newbie thing here is a bit awkward, I just have to write something for the sake of writing something.....

[infinitybo]

@Krodmandoon It's really profitable to mine alternative cryptocurrencies because everything is more cheaper.

[Kenshin]

Bitcoin, Dogecoin and Quarkcoin.

I sell my Dogecoin to get Litecoin, works out more profitable this way.

[tolich94]

I was mining Catcoin when it launched: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=380130.0
But since the difficulty went up my shitty 100kh/s GPU doesn't stand a chance anymore lol.

[eterps]

Doge and Protoshares (PTS)

[Armoks]

Hello, world! I'm currently mining Icoin - a new cryptocurrency, until difficulty increases.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=389862.0

I believe Earthcoin and Lottocoin are also good starters. Nevertheless, I'm a bit overwhelmed with the number of new coins created lately.

[nahgo]

I'm mining DOGE, and TIPS with Radeon HD 7950.
DOGE is profitable at the moment.
TIPS isn't profitable now, and may be future too, but increase very fast
