Yea, unfortunately due to halving and everything else i've turned off my miners for now. will be turning them on again when the price increases and some of the big miners leave. How about everyone else?
I turned on my miners to see if the reward is really halved, but instead I'm getting almost the same yield from same CPUs.
So either because of dificulty or something else. Since I'm not selling, I don't care about the price.
@thesudio
What changes do you expect them to notice?

Yeah my motive is to aquire enough to run 3 nodes and i only have a single gaming machine with a 1080ti the price is too good right now to pass up lol
I wonder if more little rigs will join up or see if higher hash rate miners leave for other coins. My hope is we grt more decentralized i wanna see upx mining apps for android tvs that activate when its got no display inputs or phone miners that turn on during inactive hours ect coupled with nice guis... i wish i was more programming savvy instead of data entry type layman stuff lol id build it for upx myself
Mining on TVs and tablets can be tricky. None of them is optimized for 24/7 load. Today's TVs are as thin as possible, leaving no room for proper cooling of the chips inside.
That means that you can easily kill your device if you run too many threads and not monitor the CPU temps.
Cheap Chinese TV boxes often heat too much even on their own, without the mining, that you MUST modify their cooling if you want them to last more than a month.
Another topic is security. How would you convince a regular person that the miner in his TV is secure, not spying at him and so on.
But in order for all that to change, we must create intelligent miners for all devices with a CPU, continue being open to people, and tell the truth as uPlexa is so far.
In the past there was a bounty for creating a miner for XBox. Which type of IoT device do you think is most suitable for mining?
