Does anyone even know the current odds for a block on a 1080ti?
At current diff it's ~1:300000 with AR29 and slightly better with AT31. Or ~7 months for a block on average. The diff is not going to stay "current" obviously.
I'll give it a week.
I have fond memories of CPU mining a Bitcoin block back in the day, and would be nice to think I could solo mine at least 1 block with this stuff, before the difficulty truly goes parabolic.
I've never really followed an altcoin launch before, and am absolutely blown away with how much and quickly, the difficulty is increasing for this project.
It has really taken off in an amazing way.
At first you have catastrophic inflation that no amount of hype can overcome, 100% per day on the second day. Then it settles down at least a little, maybe 10% per day, now the early days hype can overcome it. But hype is transitory, inflation is like the tide. Inflation will break the back of the hype machine and we will see a long price decline for 6 months to a year minimum. Difficulty tracks the price so it should be easy to mine again during that lull. I plan to be mining a lot during that time.
