Moderately hopeful rendertoken or other forms of gpu marketplace gains traction this year.
Where are rendertoken currently at? Beta-testing still? Not currently giving out live rendering jobs yet are they?

Personally I'm still running all my rigs (RX 570's, Vegas and 1080's), although the latter are basically at breakeven point. nVidia clearly behind in terms of profitability for the last months.

I've ordered some fpga solutions: 1x BCU1525 from fpga.land, 1x Dwarfminer (yeah yeah I know, but it's only 400 bucks right - no risk no fun) and signed up for an Acorn too. Complexity of running them is above my skill set but I'm confident the community will help in getting them to run.

If the coin prices don't go back up I will turn off the 1080's. That'd be a sad day...

EDIT: not considering ASICs at all. Not out of snobism, but because they really make no sense currently unless you're in need of a big door-stopper.
