Re: Is Cryptocurrency Mining Dying? GPU vs ASIC | VoskCoin Crypto Farm | August 2018
Vosk, you need to familiarize yourself with Bettenridge's Law of Headlines: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Betteridge%27s_law_of_headlines
"If the headline asks a question, try answering 'no'. Is This the True Face of Britain's Young? (Sensible reader: No.) Have We Found the Cure for AIDS? (No; or you wouldn't have put the question mark in.) Does This Map Provide the Key for Peace? (Probably not.) A headline with a question mark at the end means, in the vast majority of cases, that the story is tendentious or over-sold. It is often a scare story, or an attempt to elevate some run-of-the-mill piece of reporting into a national controversy and, preferably, a national panic. To a busy journalist hunting for real information a question mark means 'don't bother reading this bit'."

life is boring if you live entirely within the constructs that those before you have built

I get this is a quote as I read through the wikipedia article, thanks for that... But the quote should be changed for modern times.

What is an alternative title you would have chosen for distribution on the YouTube platform?
Well I think you said it in the next message: "This video is just my farm update and I share my input on the current state of mining and a story to help illustrate my stance on GPU vs ASIC." Which could easily be shortened to "Mining Farm Update - Current State of Mining and GPU vs ASIC" Much more informative title, not to mention relevant and not full of fake drama. I wouldn't exactly consider a good title as "living entirely in the constructs others have created." Take this for example: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Is+mining+dying Do you honestly think any of those videos are worth watching? Its all a bunch of low quality garbage. I am giving this as constructive criticism though because I think you have by far the best crypto channel on youtube. Ironically halfway down the search page is another one of your videos entitled "What its been like Mining CryptoCurrency in 2017 - Bitcoin, Ethereum, Zcash" Much better title. I just don't want to see you fall into the trap that all of these other clowns have.
