Re: Mining MONERO is a worthless endeavor nowadays...and it will only get worse...
Not too much forward thinking in this thread. You aren't mining for the price of Monero now, you are mining for the price of Monero later. Mine, Hold, repeat. Long-term hold.
That is fishbowl thinking
....there's a ton of coins out there that are will rise just as much, if not more than Monero, and their difficulty level is but a fraction.... Anyone sticking with Monero versus an up and coming coin is only doing a great service to the Monero community by sacrificing their GPUs 
for the crumbs that fall off the table.....when you could be eating steak with a newer coin you could just buy the coin instead of mining it, right?
HI blucg, yup, agree with you totally...it would be better to buy coins at some point rather than mine them....don't know if Monero just hit that point, but from the mining point of view....not worth it....there are so many coins out there that give you a much better mid and long term mining return....
whatever hardware you have now, you just saw the MOST you would ever make with Monero last month...this degree of difficulty is not for 3 - 5 (full) running 580 rigs for example....that would be a drop in the ocean with Monero's difficulty level and amount of miners right now....
I really liked this coin....but....when they grow up.....
