If you can't decide which one to choose why don't you just invest in both of them,
But I think it is better to invest in ETH than Tron.

The ETH has more developers. The Tron has two few.

TRX is like XRP, too much hype with only whitepaper as a product. But as soon TRX will show us good working product, surely everyone will consider investing on it. But I will still keep on accumulating more and more ETH, as I believe it will bring more glory.

TRON is not mineable, so it is not good for the bigger community.

I think that ETH is much more reliable than TRON. I buy a TRON for quick speculation. And I'm ready to buy ETH for long-term storage.
Yes, indeed, TRON is suitable for short-term investments, and Ethereum for longer and more reliable ones.

I think the price of ETH is also supported by the miners.

Potential targets depend but from 1000 up to 2000 depends on hype so if we get some downtrend in the market I will share a full description and precise buy area and targets.
If bull continues it is easy to see x5. But trx is much more risky than ETH.
ETH is always safe and trustable, I'd go with ETH.

I think ETH has much better development. So buy ETH instead.

Re: Claymore's Dual Ethereum AMD+NVIDIA GPU Miner v11.0 (Windows/Linux)

Guys is ethermine.org still one of the go to pools for ethereum mining?

I always have about 96% accepted shares and 4% stale shares .. ? Why 4%? Is that the miner fee?
What does stale mean in this relation?

I mean the weekly outcome is good but slightly below of the whattomine calculation with my "reported" hashrate from my rigs.

All rigs perfectly stable since the last restart one week ago. No disconnects, restarts, etc.

Any help or info for me?

Thanks a lot!

The only pool you should avoid is Nanopool, it produces twice as many stales compared to other pools, just don't report them.
You shouldn't worry about stales on Ethermine, it is completely normal for a network with 15s block time to produce a noticeable amount of stale shares. You're getting paid anyway, just on a slightly lower rate.

That is right. You can 50% for the stale shares.

It’s not profitable, not interesting

If your electricity price is lower than 10c/kWh, it is usually profitable.

As of now the price of bitcoin is already 7300 doolars and i hope the price will continue to increase so ae can make more profit. I think the possible price of bitcoin next year is 2018 is 10k plus and I hope that happen. But they have possible the price of bitcoin decrease. Any price they have possible to see . But for sure many of us want bitcoin increase because we want more profit. And those people want bitcoin dump they dont have bitcoin so they can buy bitcoin with cheap price.

If the winner of the 2X struggle can be decided soon, then the winner price will rise a lot. Otherwise, the Bitcoin Cash can rise a lot.

Only thinking about ETH, buying coins instead of mining rigs is right.
But considering the other PoW coins after ETH, mining still has potentials.
The huge wave of PoW to PoS is making it very complicated.

At the moment, the ROI is too long. It is better to buy the coins directly.

It is quite possible that some whales will pump the altcoin so it will be profitable to mine again.

Is there any reason why the btc price is dropping that much today? Are people scared by the hard fork or why is it dropping?
Its just some big whales dumping their holding or cashing out their profit from this short term huge rally, current pump on price was only supported by high speculation over comming hard fork so bigger dump than this one is quite guaranteed after the hard fork.

Does it mean there is no need to worry and the price will rise again?

If the ETH price drops 60% from here, mining will not be profitable for most people. That is risky.
It will be only in case if eth drop with all other coins.

From a miner point of view eth dropping 60% would have about the same effect as eth going 50% pos. Yep, not possible but you get the idea.

Half of the current eth nethash looking for a new home, what could it possibly be? xmr, etc and zec. Everyone knows what that would mean.


I think that is the reason why the difficulty of ZEC or XMR is so high.

Everyone and their Grandmother is mining in Asia with GPUs. And you wanna know the crazy part? They're OK with 1 year ROI! I'm not even joking. I had a friend ask me about GPU mining and I told him expect ROI in 6 month + and he went out and bout 200 P106-100.

So hey, I guess Darwinism at its best. If people are willing to work for little to no pay then why the hell not?

If you think the price of the coin will rise, it is OK with one year ROI.

"Currently, block time is averaging 14 seconds, but for the last year, it has been inching up to 15 seconds. And, according to calculations made by Buterin three months ago, that number will double to 30 seconds by mid-August of this year."

You don't have a fucking clue how pow works, do you?

 Do you see the quotes? I hope you have eyes and can see the quotes. Go and enlighten the guy who created Ethrereum you troll.

Mid August is just 20 days away. Will the block time that high?

The profit went down a LOT. I started mid June and a week after profit was like half than when I started haha.
But, I made 40% ROI in 1 month, so I'm not complaining. I'm also mining coins that have a chance to go up in price and if they do, $10 a day now might be $20 a day in a few months.

At the moment, the ROI for the 580 is about 10 months.

Selling is not a good option at the moment.

If you are satisfied with the price today, then profit is profit. No matter how big the price of bitcoin will reach sooner. Once you had enough on it already, go sell it at your own comfort. But yes, it is not a good option if you are going to sell right now, selling some of your coins will be good for you for having money to spend but don't do the same with your remaining btc.

Selling is definitely not an option considering the prices that are further reaching newer heights of insanity by going completely crazy over markets and this thing is getting real serious as we are hitting some real big numbers in terms of market cap as well as users, so holding on and waiting for a real time to sell it is the best part if you are not in an emergent need of some cash/fiat.

Just like what is happening right now the price is rapidly increasing and it is now on $1,337 though a couple of hours ago it was $1,346 it's only a $11 difference but that is a good sign that bitcoin is already going to come up again. So the most patient person in the market today will get a good profit in the end.

When will he make a profit? You can wait forever and die without selling. But why? Now the price is high and can be sold. Everyone knows that there will soon be an adjustment and the price will go down. If you sell now and buy at a low price soon, you can make a profit

That's different case, if he thinks that he got profit already then he can sell right away. But I'm saying that you could wait for some more because the more you wait the more profit that you'll get. And I'm not saying that you are oblige to hold for it forever because we know that we need to spend it for adoption.


I think it is better to sell some bitcoin and buy some altcoins with active developments.

In my opinion its better to sell a part of investment and hold another part. With the hard fork / segwit battle, its difficult to know what the price will do, i suppose that if we had a fork with two chains prices will go down. But on long time, i think that we will have higher prices in one or two years.

In the long run the price won't be much affected, but in the short term this potential fork can turn out to drive the price down to possibly sub $500 levels. In that regard, it wouldn't hurt to liquidate some of your Bitcoin holdings to have a good sum of fiat aside for when the price reaches such low levels. Traders always prepare themselves for every possible scenario, and this whole fork situation is definitely not an exception.

I think it is better to sell some bitcoin to buy the good altcoins. When things are settled, buy back the bitcoin.

Re: Is it possible to go over 7 GPU?
by
Cacapzarg
on 28/02/2017, 18:10:23 UTC
I did some research on this matter and it seems that the difference between RX and previous series is that the RX cards allocates more resources for configuration space.
The only successful methode bypassing this is to modify the resource allocation in the mobo BIOS but it's not that easy.
Maybe the other way would be modding the card's BIOS disabling some unused entries in these allocation tables...


There has to be a few million GPU miners in the world. Why has no one built specialized equipment? Mobos that can run tons of cards, PSU with lots of power adapters. I'm sure a GPU could be modified to hash faster than a general GPU. Of course it would essentially become an asics market so forget I said anything.

Have you heard of the panda miner?

Re: Loans too risky?

on 26/02/2017, 09:30:32 UTC
all bussness still can risky but you can minimum to risk
if you want loan you must use colletaral, is safe two person, if give and receive loan, and you not trust open service lending
you can use escrow, so pay escrow receiver loan
The risk can be minimize of course and that depends on how we treat and mange the risk, lending business is a lucrative business in the real world but online there's a bigger risk as though we can require a borrower a collateral, it's not safe still since collateral are not valuable as we expected.

A good collateral is a in demand collateral and digital goods is not that in demand especially BTCtalk accounts.

That's why when you read the sticky thread in the lending board, you will see that they are suggesting that you only accept collateral that are 120% of the borrowed amount. There are also some guidelines on how to choose if the collateral is a good thing to take. You can always deny people's request if you don't trust them and you don't like their collateral. I see people getting denied a lot in lending threads. No question there.

I just want to add that a "good" collateral right now might not be a good one anymore at the date of payment so always be cautious when accepting loans.
I think I understand what you are trying to say, but big question is, who will appraise to determine it's value?

The market, I guess. Lots of people sell digital goods so it should be no problem looking for the price of the digital good that has offered to you as a collateral. Take note that digital goods has the tendency to increase/decrease in price as well. Some people take altcoins as collateral and that's a very volatile currency. Just be careful when accepting loans and do some good research just to be sure.

If you take altcoin, just value it at 30% of the current price, it might be safer.
