CHIA mining is going strong in China and neighboring countries. Looks like this coin is getting good profit to mine. I haven't tried mining them yet but my friends are making good profits and they are continuing to scale CHIA mining. What I find good about CHIA mining is that it doesn't cause as much noise, heat and electricity as traditional crypto mining.
Funny how people who in the first sentence say "I have never done this", but then go on to tell you how great it is,
I think in reality, if you were to plot chia, and run farmers to mine the plots, you would know that chia is a pile of feces.
I have been mining chia for months, and eth on gpus for years, and the gpu is profitable, the chia, you fall behind everyday, no matter how many new plots you create, you can't stay up with the global space, now at 12+ EB (billion-billion bytes) that means our little 100TB farms earn about $1/day, and 1/2 each week, contstant I can create 16 plots a day, which used to be doubling, now its like adding 1% to my farm, while the global grows 10% /day
The end who knows, moronity has no limits, it could be 100EB, it would also be 1,000EB, whereas for humans, the limit will always be 10-500TB, think about 500TB that's 50 10TB hard-disks at today price of $500, or $25k, to make $1/day
Then don't accept the BS they tell you about HDD's lasting, in my 2+ months I have destroyed 3 drives from running their SW, its highly abusive to new drives, and if you chia-mine, the warranty is voided on day one, its all in the logs, they can see what you did, there is no hiding the abuse.
For the average person who dabbles, 10TB is a big deal, and now that is 1 cent/day, however since most don't pool, they solo-mine, to date the majority have earned zero to date.
