I was geting bored with 1080ti and ZEC... so I have moved most of my 1080tis to mine CHC at yimp directly a CHC wallet.

The 1070s and 1060s are still hard at it at ETH... every DAG is a mountain to climb now.

Sad to say that you need at least 1GHs now to make ETH worth to mine.... anything less than that will be just to tough.

One of my fellow farmers with a small 1.4 Ghs farm has just gave up and switched to Nicehash to rent out his ETH hash for BTC.

I have gone the route of sitting on cash. I will
Look for good spots to get something cheaper.

I almost purchased a few 1080 ti's for 690 each and six months to pay them off decided to pass.

I have 550 that I have to spend  by August 1 on ebay

This is all the ebucks from buying 1080 tis from April 1 to June 30

I am in the same boat as you, had around 500+ in ebay bucks from GPU purchases back with the 8 and 10% deals they had.. i picked up a used EVGA PSU i needed, now im trying to figure out what else i want to buy with it.. lol


I may buy some silver bars


http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lot-of-2-10-oz-Sunshine-Mint-Silver-Bar-999-Fine-Sealed/161907052585

Isnt that a rip off, because silver is only around $16/oz currently?

he is selling at 357/20 = 17.85 an oz.

1% off for ebucks = 18 cents   so 17.67 an oz  silver is 16.22 an oz   so you are paying over spot.

define rip off  or  is it worth  30 usd over spot for  shipping handling and  cast and pouring the metal? 324.40 is spot 354  is what I would pay after ebucks.

When I buy silver I hold until it goes up  to 150%  of what I paid for it.

I grabbed a lot back in the day at 6-12 an oz and it rallied to 50 an oz.

 I have some time maybe I will find some a bit cheaper
