It's not that I'm not listening, it's that my funders have already rejected the options you were giving me AND I'VE BEEN TELLING TOU GUYS THAT OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN but no one is listening to me. The only path forward they've given me is "an app that is as user-friendly as NiceHash but without the commercial license limitation."
My first proposal for this project was built around mining Zcash and converting it to bitcoins to CAD on behalf of beneficiaries, but they rejected on the grounds that: (1) MY organization can not touch the value mined in beneficiaries' homes, and (2) training beneficiaries' parents and guardians in cryptocurrency trading is completely off the table. This is why every "solution" that says "then all you have to do is edit a .bat file" or "all you have to do is exchange it for bitcoin" I've been ignoring because I've already bashed my head against that brick wall with my funders several times already. I know. It sounds crazy and stupid and pointless but it's not my money so it's not up to me and I feel like everyone in this thread is just shooting the messenger.
Everyone here would rather tell me how crazy and stupid my funders are being and not one of you wants to leverage the power of potentially thousands of core i5's to mine from without having to worry about electricity costs. I don't know how no one on here doesn't see this as a sweetheart deal but we've all already acknowledged that if you represent charitable organization with conservative governance and ethics rules that you're an idiot who doesn't deserve anyone's help or the chance to help anyone else. Mods, please lock, delete, and kill this thread with fire
assuming all the previous flaming has left more than ashes.
Hi,
I can see that you're frustrated here, so I would recommend you take a deep breath, walk away from this thread for a little bit and come back with a clear head. While some of the responses you've received maybe could have been said with a little more tact, you have no control over whether or not other people post in your thread or what they say. I mean nothing malicious by saying that, it's just a fact. You do have control over how you take in what they say. I would suggest you try to see past anything you find offensive or aggressive, because there is still useful information in there, whether you agree with how it was communicated or not. Going off on rants telling people not to post isn't productive to your goals either, and that behaviour is something you do have control over.
With that said, I'll say again what people have been trying to communicate... your financial model just isn't currently feasible, and even if it was, it wouldn't be sustainable. Even if current prices did allow you to make your 2 mBTC per day, there's no way to guarantee it would continue to do so for the timeframe you need. Even if some amazing programmer was able to give you a 2 mBTC/day solution, there's still no way to guarantee it would last for any amount of time. This isn't about the software, it's about how all this works in general. There are no guarantees.
Assuming you are legit, your cause is admirable. But a good long-term business plan with backers and investors, non-profit or for-profit, is going to need some reasonable amount of guarantee. The only guarantee with crypto currencies is that there are no guarantees. You need to understand this one thing, if nothing else.
The last thing I'll point out is that you keep mentioning you're against trading to Bitcoin. It's already been mentioned that there are several pools that can pay in Bitcoin. I use miningpoolhub myself, which will auto-trade to Bitcoin for you, before it ever hits your wallet. So nobody has to do any trading, and the conversion to Bitcoin is all done for you automatically and your profits come to you as Bitcoin. Miningpoolhub can also do multi-algo mining so that you're always mining the most profitable coin.
I know this stuff has been said already, but I thought I'd throw in my 2 satoshis worth, in hopes that it might help you.
