good question.

I mostly use 1080ti

I cannot believe that you are still mining this BCI shit.
I know you are mining Grin as well, but ffs brother, if you want more BCI, then buy some.
BCI is nowhere to be found on mining profitability lists.

I am not too technical on the details but what is the deal exactly with ProgPOW? It seems that it will level the field with ASICs and GPUs however the brand of GPU seems to play a factor.

It seems that Nvidia performs much better than AMD, and is the reason for this that Nvidia generally costs more and since it costs more they want to make it more fair in that regards.

For example, say you can buy 2 AMDs for the price of 1 Nvidia. The 1 Nvidia will perform at the exact same speed as the 2 AMDs combined. Is this the point they are going for or is it just the way that the current miners are optimized?

It is what the current miners are optimized in.
One year ago, AMD was ahead of NVDIA on the GPU race.
Now things have shifted a bit towards NVDIA favor. Their difference in performance is roughly 1/3 regardless of the coin.
New AMD 16 GB is out. Wink

I was vocal against BCI and then their community attacked my video & channel lol

I'm really curious as to what you see in them Phil, I am surprised to see you throw all your weight behind a project -- especially BCI


Also a side note, any good how to mine (x) coin guides you've read recently -- I'm trying to create more written content and want some stuff to compare to
