Re: Is It Late To Invest In Bitcoin?

I am a 20-year-old student. Not long ago, I heard a famous cryptocurrency expert in Korea on YouTube.

He said, "Bitcoin investment seems to be late, to be honest. I'm sad, too. I think 2018 was the last chance for ordinary people."

This makes me feel depressed. That expert started investing in bitcoin in 2013, and he encouraged his acquaintances to invest in bitcoin, but at that time he said everyone thought he was crazy.

Honestly, as an ordinary college student, the price of bitcoin now feels too much to buy.. If it's the price of the early 2010s, I might have bought it through a part-time job..

I'm so pathetic and depressed because I didn't know Bitcoin quickly. What should I do? Cry

Why does it matter to you how much one unit of Bitcoin costs today?

If you think the fundamentals of Bitcoin are solid, it will be more valuable in the future compared to today.

How much fiat would you have paid in 2010 for Bitcoin? just buy that amount today.

Because he is moronic frame of mind who try to get rich from today until tomorrow. This why his question. Dumb.

Just wait a bit. 40 series out soon. Hehe.  Grin
You won't see a cheap 4000 series this year.

At least the year is 75% over.

Should have sold off those gpu way before now. I started selling off my Nvidia 1070/1080 series cards that I mined with for three years in late 2020 and decided not to purchase newer gen cards with the funds. Could have waited another six months and got more for said gpu's, but I'm not in the business of buying bottoms and selling tops. Sure the merge could have been delayed yet again, but I wasn't willing to bet on it. So no new card.

I overpaid for some gpu in early 2018, but no worry. Most were purchased in 2017 at good price point. Now you sell them at loss or continue to hold onto them while manufacturer releases newer and newer cards, this decease value of your card even more. Hello Metroid. Hehe  Grin

Re: What prevents someone from "giving" themselves more Bitcoin?

on 12/06/2021, 20:02:34 UTC
but let's say I have a cold wallet with 1 bitcoin on it. Could someone somehow change the code in a way and make it into 2 bitcoin? Like to me it just seems like a number that represents the number of bitcoin you have.

Thank you for bearing with my stupid question, but it's been bugging me for a bit.
Each coin is immutable and non fungible.

I think you mean that Bitcoin is fungible.

I'm looking for someone to help. please

You need hospital bills? As in you would like to donate your money to pay for the hospital bills that others cannot afford to pay? I personally don't have any for you to pay, but this is also not the correct place to be looking. Consider setting up a charity.

This model isn't going for 300$ on eBay right now, that's for sure. I check recently sold items on a daily basis. There are certainly a few that have sold for sub 400$, but they are few and far between.

https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_nkw=ASUS+ROG+Strix+GeForce+GTX+1080+TI+11GB&_sacat=0&LH_Sold=1&rt=nc

The first four of mine sold on Offer Up @ 375$ plus 13.99$ shipping.

I can take around $360 shipped if paying via btc or cash app, since both eBay and Offer Up are taking a huge chunk when I use either of them.

I have six ASUS ROG Strix GeForce GTX 1080 TI 11GB GDDR5X for sale.

They have about a month and a half of warranty left on them. Original box and all documentation included.

$400usd Each

Will accept btc or cashapp.

I have been trying to sell my hybrid evgas 1080ti for 350-375

I am thinking that you will struggle at 400 price point.

but if eth moves to 700 or 800 you could sell yours and maybe someone will take mine.

good luck.

Yeah I've been thinking of moving the price down a bit. They're selling on Ebay for around 400 plus shipping, but if I don't have to pay Ebay/Paypal fees, I could take a little less.

Re: Is now a good time to build mining rigs?

on 22/11/2020, 18:30:21 UTC

I disagree. I was mining with 30 gpu's in 2017, 2018, 2019, and half of 2020. Though all of the ups and downs, I never shut rigs down, and I didn't sell crypto to pay for electricity. Sure I could have sold some eth in Jan 2018, but I did not, and that is what it is. In fact, I still have yet to sell a single mined coin with the exception of trading etn to btc in late 2017 and rvn to btc in late 2018. I mined the shit out of eth and xmr and I still have all of it. I used savings and tax refunds to pay for electricity costs and I continued to mine regardless of what daily profit calculators were telling me. As a general rule, I mostly stayed away from mining total garbage.

I began selling off gpu's one by one in Sept of this year getting back about 50% of what I paid for them new. All in all I am very happy with the fact that I didn't sell off coins to pay for electricity. Had I done that, I would have been selling coins way lower than I wanted to, and I would not be in as good of a position that I am currently in.

All things considered, mining certainly is a fun adventure, and I continue to mine on a very very small scale. I doubt I'll ever mine with more than a handful of gpu's again. Not @ 10 cents/kWh anyway.



You did it right, most would have sold their coins when it was low because most lack patience, also mining for scraps only benefit others who buy your coins, in that sense mining has been dead for a long time, those trolls who mined bitcoin when it was $1 and sold each for $1 must have all committed suicide at this point or earlier in time, like mining most miners from that time must have been dead too ehhe

That might be the first time ever that you have agreed with something I've said. I'll have to make a note of that. Lol. I had a lot of fun arguing with you about stuff a few years ago. Glad to see that you're still here  Smiley

Now that Bitcoin is surging will altcoins be more profitable to mine right now? Is it a good time to buy mining rigs or graphics card? I need some advice, it looks like altcoin season is coming in hot this time around, too late to be a miner or not?

The time to buy anything is when everyone else thinks it's worthless.

On another note, Hey Metroid! Long time, no see. How are the "gpu mining is dead" threads doing these days?

Hello, So you only hit these parts when is bulltime? ehhe, it's funny, bulltime periods used to give much more mining money, i guess we have to go a lot more but those times will be fast like before too, bitcoin might hit 50K and that will be the time to sell mined coins.

Exactly! I traded this forum for Twitter in 2018  Grin Too many Debbie Downers around these parts in beartime, and I didn't want it affecting my decisions  Grin You are absolutely correct, my friend. All of my mined eth and xmr from the past few years will probably be no longer when I find an acceptable time to sell over the next year or so. Good times ahead, except for those who buy the top  Grin

In my opinion, mining is very safe. In the worst scenario, you lose up to 30% of your invest money (by selling your GPU, CPU, Mobo, PSU at 70% brand new price). Ofcourse you need to sell mined coin for electric bill, you can hold some, but remember not to hold all.

So it's acceptable.

I disagree. I was mining with 30 gpu's in 2017, 2018, 2019, and half of 2020. Though all of the ups and downs, I never shut rigs down, and I didn't sell crypto to pay for electricity.
