Re: I Am Unplugging My Bitcoin Cash Miners & You Should Too | ASIC Mining Is Dying
I have mined over 2100 different coins in the past 2-3 years, follow up on about 95% of all suggestions made to me, and yes as a result of that get about 30 viruses a week, and lots of not so funny pop-ups, and each one i assess, briefly document (so hopefully i dont get fooled twice) and then move on. About 90% are scams or shitcoins, and I have found their is literally no way to find "the genuine one" without feeling that pain of going through each one of them.
i suppose if you have the free time to set up all those VMs or such, download all those wallets and blockchains and maintain them, and take all that risk to your coins and infrastructure, you could find the occasional nugget of gold.
to me thats way to risky and time consuming. ill take reliability and simplicity. for the most part anyway.
Back in 2013-14 when I first started mining, there were virtually no pools, you had to download the full blockchain....not really an issue, you open several wallets and let em sync...one i'm doing at the mo i'm on day 11 and its still 14 weeks behind, but its not like it needs any intervention, just dooes its thing, besides its more like satoshi's vision....millions of miners, wallets open, full blockchains, decentralised background mining.....
