@Marvell2 -- I dont have any CPU rigs. I know that Cryptonite and Neoscrypt can be mined via Ryzen with good results. However I dont think this is feasible anymore because Claymore's latest project is a kickass Neoscrypt miner for AMD GPUs, including Vegas - I am currently testing it and its a winner vs GTX GPUs. I am keeping track with Claymore thread on his latest project. I only have 2 x Vegas64 left after selling 8 Vegas to one of my buddies last month. The miner is driving the Vegas hard at 200w and runs hot.
I haven't really kept abreast with that thread for the simple reason that my 6x Vega rig is "only" powered by a 1500W PSU. Going full beans Neoscrypt (+50% power limit) as per Claymore's suggestions would drive the Vegas a lot harder than 200W actually. We're  talking a lot closer to 300. So I'd have to actually lower my PL to mine NeoScrypt on the Vegas, which kinda lowers hashrate quite substantially.

The Vega64 was at full Armageddon mode at 100% max fans - in my early testing, I am surprised that Claymore can make it go flat out like that. I am back to CN7 w/cast Vega64 miner -- good profits this CN7.

@Storx, started PT2/Bittrex close to about a week now ~ Day 5, total profits just under 1k ~ avg profits 1.6%-2.2%. past few days was quite good with several good (lucky?) trades. Starting balance of 1 BTC, Max $500 per trade. Adjusted buy/sell spread +20%, using LOWBB & RSI buy strategies and GAIN sell strategies. High learning curve this bot, but somewhat manageable compared to the other bots. Thanks to Discord group and burning the midnight oil reading the wiki and TA resources and strategies - I think I have fine-tuned the bot with optimized "safe and steady" parameters - ready to be sent to a VPS and let the bot do its thing. I am tempted to get a few bots to work on different market scenarios.
