To be honest here; I haven't splurged on buying any new video cards yet.... I am still holding out for 'that new model' that we know is being held back from us.
(remember word of a new model that is basically 4 1060 dies crammed together?)
I am waiting for that.
Until then, I keep my old cards, mining monero at home for the short-long term. Luckily I can squeeze ~1800w steady out of home without any repercussions.
I have been speculating more than normal; I have sunk nearly 0.1BTC+ into BUB. No; Im not trying to pimp the coin to sell; I am buying to hodl. I have been spending pretty much 99% of my crypto earnings over the last ~4-6 months on the coin... I am trying to bring awareness.

Anyways, BUB aims to be a
Decentralized
Exchange.... I think it was the first concept 'coin' to be a 'DE'. The main difference with bubble, is it plans to keep every aspect as decentralized as possible. You sort of act like your own exchange in a manner of speaking.. Each user will have their bubble of influence. Its basically going to be a very versatile crypto exchange with many many layers of features built in....
It can solve a lot of the escrow and other trading issues that would typically involve crypto and a trusted 3rd party. The project owner has finally been producing some results; to further the project after completing a bit of school. Things look good. I have been quietly excited about this since quite some time ago that I read up on the coin and bought into it when it was worth ~8-10K satoshis. But back then, I did not hold, I placed sell orders to benefit from the many pumps the coin saw ~2 years back.
I know its only on one exchange; and its yobit... which its 100% understandable that people are weary of. In fact, I am still weary of them, and try to not keep assets on there for longer than necessary.... but they have yet to not pay me, or to mis-manage my funds... so fingers crossed....
And yes I have withdrawn my bub from the exchange (instantly) and their wallet is online and fully functional.... I suggest you guys take a peek (link and address above). The guy's language is colorful, and he has a lot of energy... and I have believe he is taking this from a sound approach; but more importantly, wants to see this project through to the end.
BUB Thread HereI also suggest a google search to read through the other earlier threads on BUB. See how it has transformed, and its initial roadmap before it became focused on the main goal first.
