What was the Bitcoin Mining Difficulty when you started mining?

I remember when the hash rate was 15 Million in 2013 and that was insane then. Today on January 7th it is 24.2 Trillion.

Anyone hit any blocks in awhile or is it all pool mining now?

Is it always more profitable for the average individual to mine ETH with a mining rig rather than BTC?

I didn't see anyone asking, and you didn't mention, but are you able to buy RTX 3080 non LHR version?

Or all the cards you have available are LHRs version?

If you can answer this and the price, we can help you better
It's almost impossible to find non lhr cards nowadays in my country, only used


I have seen RTX 3060 Tis and 3070s which are not LHR. RTX 3080s are always out of stock when i check anywhere.

The dullness and riveting price action is all dependent on the market marker and their mood/appetite.

Dubai! I travelled there recently for business. The ambience and atmosphere was very different from what I am used to in Canada and America.

This is area is for Bitcoin mining only and that means using ASIC-based miners, PERIOD. Difficulty has been too high for anything else since at least 2014.

'Mining rigs' are only suitable for mining altcoins and discussion about them belongs in the altcoin areas.

Is using mining rigs for BTC specifically not a viable option anymore? How come ASIC-based miners are better?

GPUs: 6x ASUS TUF RTX 3080
Since 3080s are low in stock, is it feasible to replace the 6x 3080s with either 3060 Tis or 3070s instead? If so, would you advise that I change any of the other parts that I proposed below? Thank you.

Biostar TB250-BTC Pro
Intel Celeron G3930
1x 8GB DDR4
120GB Kingston SSD
Ubit 6-Pack Ver. 103C
6 GPU Veddha Frame
2x EVGA P2 1200 Watts
6x 8-Pin to Dual 8-Pin
Dual PSU Adapter


Perfect rig.

If the rig is away from home, try use servers PSU, more cheap.

Thank you for your response. Another question: Are 3060Tis and 3070s compatible or ideally paired with the rest of the parts listed?
