Hey guys,

How stupid can you be?
That's for the CryptoNight algorithm, which monero hasnt used for years.

Hey guys,

Just starting out trying some mining.
Now, I was recommended mining XMR, and by checking the charts and calculators (might be incredibly naive and dense of me ) it looks to be profitable by 300-400$ a month letting them run 24/7. 

Now my questions is: How likely are these numbers?

This obviously doesn't account for everything (cooling, etc), but I am seeing a lot of different numbers flying around when trying to determine what kind of additional cost I should be expecting.

Another note is that it is probably not the most wise decision to let these things run 24/7 without knowing everything about them - so could anyone recommend a 'safe' runtime that doesn't cause them to overheat and blow up 

Any advice would be appreciated.

well, to be fair, if your just coming into crypto and don't know a lot.... its probably not that easy to figure out that monero doesn't use cryptonight.

Not sure, but they're really loud...also that's for cryptonight

you're too agressive
