Re: [ANN - NEW COIN JUST LAUNCHED] *EarthCoin* Is Here To Make A Splash For 2014!
Currently I am mining at 700kh/s (one ATI 280x since ATM I'm only doing it as a "hobby") and I am getting probably 9000 EAC a day at the current difficulty of 17. Now this is if the difficulty stays at 17, which I highly doubt it will. Think about how long it will take to set up the new equipment. If you are going to buy, buy as fast as possible do not wait any second.
Either way, if you are willing to spend some time on the bitcointalk forums and managing your miner then buying mining equipment seems worth it (there is almost any coin at any given time that is worth to mine - mostly new coins with very low difficulty), atleast until scrypt ASIC's come along (probably will be by the end of 2014), even then you may be able to sell the hardware for half the price you got it at.

Surprisingly, PC hardware holds its resale value really well. You could easily EASILY sell a 280x that you bought for the real price of $300 for $250 after all the frenzy for them dies down.
Or you can just have a beastly gaming PC ready to go!
