eth is paying 144% at viabtc, 5 cents an mh or 2.60 for amd 5700xt or 3.00 for nvidia 3060ti. I could roi this card in under 165 days or 4.50 for nvidia 3080. I could roi this card in under 185 days Not sure how long this heats up as 144% at viabtc is unreal. https://etherscan.io/chart/hashrate is making this claim: Highest Avg Hash Rate of 300,739.6361 GH/s was recorded on Monday, December 28, 2020 which makes sense at the gas being charged to move a transaction.

yes, the DEFI craze is still ongoing. They have airdrops, recently 1inch i think. where they reward you if you "stake" coins in liquidity pools, etc. People rush to claim them and sell them, driving up eth gas fees, which is good for us. So you put 1 ETH and 1 ETH equivalent of a shitDEFIcoin, say sushi or other, and then you get "rewarded" with the platforms own token (UNI for uniswap, etc). I honestly don't know where they are going with this, but this is ICO 2017 mania x 1000. People have crypto, and they want to make returns with their money. It makes little sense but since when did common sense have anything to do with everything here...except bitcoin. The number of new DEFI "coins" if we can call them that has exploded. New platforms promising % returns have exploded. Lending with collateral has exploded. Its insane. Hopefully this pumps bitcoin like crazy but the crash will be equally epic. Always keep emergency popcorn ready. For example, see https://help.coinbase.com/en/coinbase/trading-and-funding/cryptocurrency-trading-pairs/wbtcedit: so wow, we have surpasses all time high hashrate for ETH even with 4gb gpus dying.

I can see it grow to 1100-1200 a coin and 120% or for us miners maybe 1440 effective coin price. we are around 5 cents a mh. so my 3060ti makes 3 a day. and costs 65 cents in power of which I use for heating the den. So it clears $2.50 a day around 200 day payoff. All my cards are paid off. As I have 800mh already running and added 1200mh July to Dec. I am sitting really good. But I would really like 90 good days from today on. Checked my records I have 1,000,010 doge I thought I sold 350,000 I did not. https://dogechain.info/address/DTxnGj2uNy1ZYezy1Pp1321uxK5gwU4kXSthat is on hodl for a bit. and btc is at 29000 +

Phil you gotta change your ROI calc to account for the residual value of the card itself, lets say it drops 20% in value in the first 6 months, its still worth $300+ so your actual ROI is less than 37 days. Now if only I could find any in stock ...

I am selling off all my old cards (Polaris and 1070s) right now. Prices are insane. I am basically getting more than I paid for my old Polaris cards. Although I could keep mining, resale on these old cards will drop next to nothing once the new gen is widely available, so now is the time to sell. Am planning to grab 3060tis when I can. They seem to be price to performance winners. But wouldn’t say no to 3080s either.

I have been selling my RX 470 4GB since the 2018 crash pretty much. What I noticed is that they are selling like hot cakes pretty much . A year ago I would sell maybe 1 or 2 every month. Tons of low ballers and people basically saying “I know you mined with this GPU will give you $20 for it”. Now when I make a Craigslist ad some days I sold 2 of them the same day. Reason why is mostly due to covid. In my area they banned gatherings and everybody is stuck at home. Nothing to do except play video games or watch Netflix. It’s not only GPUs, some CPUs are sold out also. Go to Newegg and see how much stuff is out of stock.

I grabbed 2 seasonic focus 850w ------------good price 1 seasonic focus 1000w -----------good price 1 corsair rm850x black ---------- good price 1 Super Flower Leadex 1300 watt psu -- good price 1 amd 5700xt xfx -- meh tiny bit over paid 1 amd 5700xt powercolor -- meh tiny bit over paid 1 amd 5600 xt asus strix --- good price 2 sticks of 32gb ram -- meh tiny bit over paid 1 2tb m2 nvme. --- good price these will all go as ending inventory so they will lower my income. I think I will place 1 more order today.

Phoenix miner with a 470 8gb, showing 61w of power draw at 25 mh. Working on reducing power as my electric price goes up 12% today (from 15.5 cents to 17.36).
Running the card at 1100/2000 HWinfo shows 936,000 GPU memory errors in about 12 hours.
Had 2 stales during that time, PM shows poolside has rate of 23.7 (vs 25 miner hashrate).
Dropped it to 1080/1950. Have zero GPU errors in 2 hours (too soon to judge), hash rate is 24.5,Phoenix says poolside now has 25.82 with the same power draw.
So, just how important is it to eliminate GPU memory errors? I have not checked any of the cards/rigs in years.

well the rate that matters is the pool not phoenix or smos. Ie my 3 card 3080 at viabtc rates at 280.73 mh on smos as phoenix states 6841 shares 4 bad on viabtc I rate 278.22m last day. this is what the real number is or what they pay on. 278.22 x 4.8 cents = 13.35 a day if I crank up my ram I will do 5% bad shares and earn very close to the same each day. maybe $14 a day. use more power and stress the ram more. to me <1% share errors is good. 5%> share errors is bad. and pool number is the real payment number. I would not run my 470 card with the high errors you mention the low setting is most likely better for you.

I thought I sold some and only had 650000 but I have 1,000,011. its alltime high is 0.017 back in 2017 which means the 0.0069 it is could grow a lot. If it went to 2 cents I would be at 20k it is now at 0.0072

Wasn't there some regulation regarding privacy coins about a year ago being discussed? I remember something vaguely. Most likely I think Bittrex is taking caution because of how SEC cracked down on XRP. Or they got some private memo and we might see these privacy coins being delisted on other exchanges. This pretty much happens whenever crypto is at ATH and regulations always take place shortly after. Basically crypto being thrown under the radar and first it was self-hosted wallets needing KYC, then ripple being sued, now privacy coins are targetted and next thing we know they will go after ETH because it had a premine. Crazy times.

Bios had 1625 straps copied up (I found a copy of the bios from 2017 labeled 'lazy 470', I seem to remember having problems with these).
I reflashed with 1500 up, and then reinstalled adrenaline 20.4.2.
I can now run for hours with mem clock at 1849 and no GPU errors (only at 26.2 mh), but if I set to 1850, the card dies.
Powerplay BIOS table shows max mem clock at 2100
