@amrulshare. That is why I said learn how to use the command line and know how to store your grins properly. Many people did not try when Monero was under $0.50, which might also have caused them to avoid buying it and miss an opportunity.

I feel like I'm suddenly receiving noticeably less while mining the 31 algorithm. I tried to find a difficulty chart but I couldn't find anything, so I used calculators to see which algorithm is more profitable and it seems I was right, 31's profitability fell a lot.

Are ASICs introduced, at least officially? If not officially then I guess someone has started mining privately with them until they decide to sell them for "new" hardware.
Either that or suddenly everyone switched to 31 and Linux I guess... very unlikely!

Hello,

We are running a giveaway in which we will draw 100 Grin coins.



Good luck

someone assumed , this protocol has a problem within cold storage in hardware wallets are tricky to implement. this means developing a hardware  wallet like  trezor or ledger is not possible ?

You don't need linux to mine 31 anymore, windows miners for 31 have been out for awhile.

Maybe someone has made a faster pvt miner or FPGA's have moved onto GRIN.

Nice analogy, this is what made me buy a small bag of grin, comparing the market caps of XMR and GRIN says it all really, especially when I think Grin has better tech. Of course the market cap is lower due to the CLI only wallet, but the whole point is when GUI wallets are released it can begin to grow. Like how XMR became integrated with darkweb markets.

It's almost as if people didn't realise that XMR lost over 95% of it's value when it first reached Bittrex after the initial pump, from $5 down to $0.20. Not to say there's any rush to get into coin at the moment either, the technical analysis looks awful, even if the fundamentals are strong.

No way this is true. I don't know about Trezor but I'm a Ledger Nano S owner. Ledger offers 3 options of connecting to your wallet,

• Through their own app, Ledger Live (obviously)
• Through web apps, like MetaMask or MyEtherWallet
• Through 3rd party local software, like ARK's wallet

I believe ARK's case is the best example. Ledger doesn't offer access to ARK coins from within their own platform (Ledger Live) like they do with most (all?) other of their coins.
Instead you have install the official ARK wallet and connect your hardware device, then your wallet(s) are automatically recognised and shown in the list.

Even if Ledger can't integrate GRIN in their platform, someone could create the Windows wallet so that it reads from hardware devices and accepts signatures from them.

The only real problem I can think of is if GRIN would require a lot of memory from the hardware wallet, is that what you meant with your post?
But even in that case, the newer devices have larger memory so it should be supported at least in these newer devices.

[Hueristic]

what is FTFY?
Can you give me full defintion of the abbreviation, please.

FTFY.

I don't think we will have to wait for years. Grin coin will have dramatic growths in 2020 or 2021, I expect.

Fixed That For You.

almost close. But, as you know that to make transactions within the $grin protocol, it only has two option payment  http and file . it will be difficult if $ grin is integrated in the hardware wallet and if its is possible then it will take a lot of time

You have plan add to binance ?

When are wallets going to be developed for Grin?

With open source projects you never know. everyone is welcomed to help them developed. No one is paid to do it so he can do it today or next month. They will be here when done.  You can of course help by developing or if you have not such skills by donating in general found to hire some developers.

Uh and I just found this: https://medium.com/circle-blog/poloniex-enables-grin-withdrawals-donates-to-grin-general-fund-114906884f95

Polo doing the right things again. Poloniex  made its first monthly donation of 1.27864 BTC to the Grin General Fund.

You have plan add to binance ?

Binance is always welcomed to add Grin on their platform and earn fees by people trading it.

I want to earn some Grin. Aside from mining it, is there any other way to earn it? And does Grin run their bounty campaign here in bitcointalk?

[tbct_mt2]

You can try trading your Grincoin from mining, and try get profits from your trading orders.
Then use those trading profits to buy more Grin coin than your capital Grin coins use to trade.

Not yet, if I have not missed something from Grin coin.

And does Grin run their bounty campaign here in bitcointalk?

No one got any free Grin so I doubt anyone will give any of those they bought or earned to you for free.

It will turn to be so hilarious if someone can easily get Grin Coin, that is so hot within last months.
From its birthday, till months later, Grin Coin has maintained its hot level so well.
It looks like that every crypto investor want to own it at different desired amount.

GRIN faucet? :\ when?

[gembitz]

Anyone still mining this GRIN shit ?

Boring AF I tell you !

I have regerts.

HODLing.

sell farm ~ buys GRIN @ 68000 choo choo//^

My electricity is too expensive.  I have a set of solar panels that are not hooked up yet, so I'm going to hold off on Grin until that's settled.  I can still earn a little bit while mining ETH, so that's where my rig is pointing now.

What is going on with grin coin? I read some of the comments on here and they don't seem too bad, and the general cryptocurrency market is not doing bad right now but the grin coin price is down like 70% since it started trading on Poloniex.  Are they diluting, company selling coins on the market, or no buying interest? I bought some, bought more then bought more and all I did was lose
