Unlike traditional banking where clients have only a few account numbers, with Bitcoin people can create an unlimited number of accounts (addresses). This can be used to easily track payments, and it improves anonymity.

Have you bothered to BIOS mod the 5600xt's? I read you can do a basic 1500 strap mod on them for like 43Mh |

I never flash bios.
After tweaking I have them at 40 now it is good enough.
my four xmr rigs are using 3 5600's and 2 5500's
grand totals are 120 + 56 = 176 mh
and 11+11+23+27 = 72 for xmr
these rigs are now making 20-25 a day total they were costly and will take a long time to roi
Maybe a year or more.
they use about 1500 watts no sha 256 gear earns
25 usd for 1500 watts
I will check the gear to get a kwatt reading for all of them
1500 watts is 36 kwatts a day or
7.20 for 20 cent power
5.40 for 15 cent power
3.60 for 10 cent power
1.80 for 5 cent power
If I mine all year round in my garage. they could break even by next September.
I have 2 xmr rigs shut down at the moment I will add a card to each soon.
At that point I will sit back for about 30 days.

I still remember this GT7 Racing boards. I got 6 rigs up with Sappire RX480s on these board after Phil's successful rig builds back then. I still have them but need major dusting. We were hoping that we could use all 7 x PCIs on the board but it wasn't the case. This was way before we discovered the Onda or Colorful or K35 riserless 6-8 PCI boards.  Yeah i think I purchased enough cards for now. . . . mounted to these boards  . . . |

Phil..... push your hash to 2gh/s to get 180-190$ per day! Well That will be a bit too hard. For now. Maybe late next week I will order more. I need to sort the numbers out and take a breather. I think all bills are paid. Except for the six months of PayPal. Which is 3300 |

I am getting all my RX480s to hard labor now to max my available power. My sources in Shenzen shared with me that come November, we may see a sharp drop in hash due to 4GB cards going offline. This should give us enough time to get ready... If ETH goes ballistic hopefully I can source enough OEM 5700XT on K35s from Shenzen, before the herd comes in. |

Think I got myself a partner who will be able to help with liquidities. I'm considering waiting another 6 to 7 weeks to see if 3070 is a better choice than 5700 XT though. Hope I won't be too late to the party.  |

Yes, this is why I jumped in whole hog on new cards, ETH doubling was just gravy. I expect to see a 25-50% hashrate drop. |

I am thinking this could last until early january. just remember that the bitmain eth miner can be upgraded to more ram and mine . the miner was not very efficient so if they used all the same parts but more ram 🐑 it would not be as good as amd 5700. i would think they could make one with more ram and more efficient. I would look out for this to occur. May take until January and wont be done unless mining ⛏ keeps doing well. This fear of mine has prevented me from really pushing on buying cards. |

This fear of mine has prevented me from really pushing on buying cards. a decent 5700xt is about $650--$700? this is far better than our 2017 GPU madness where all of us here guilty buying thousand dollar 1080tis. Come end of year, I would not want to get caught forced to buy a thousand dollar 5700. I am regretting not getting a few dozen of that OEM 5700XT under $400 in early August maybe a mining card version of 5700xt coming soon? will AMD listen to miners once again? |

I ordered my first non RX card, a Sapphire Pulse 5600xt. Got because of the bios switch, and of course Sapphire. Lookin forward to adding it to my rig then seeing what's next.

Why the second one ($299) ? Why not 2 of the $269 card? Size matters. I have a few of these boards https://www.ebay.com/itm/124217882169?and lots of bitmain psus if I alternate slot 1 big msi 5600 slot 3 big msi 5600 slot 5 big msi 5600 slot 7 big msi 5600 slot 8 short power color 5600 5 x 40 = 200 mhs no overheating as the last card is short and will allow air to get to the slot 7 msi this is a 200 mhs unit for about 1300 usd in gpus six months to pay psu = free I have it. cpu = free I have it ram = free I have it mobo = free I have it seller has boards with ram and cpu he is NY https://www.ebay.com/itm/biostar-TB250-BTC-D-Pro-Motherboard-Mining-w-CPU-RAM/124292825096? |

According to hiveos statistics around 50% of eth mining gpus are 4gb and about 50% of eth hashrate comes from Asics,let's say that half of those Asics are also 4gb we can expect up to 50% hashrate drop by end of November |
