The fact that I can make $30 a month mining ethereum with one graphics card tells you everything you need to know about this shitcoin.

gratz, kiddo. mommy is very proud of her little cypherpunk

what graphic card is it sirs

>> No.23699663

the 1080ti
But most people use amd cards which are cheaper

and it mightve fried the card a little, but it's no big deal

I could just get 4 100 watt solar panels for like 300 bucks.

I have a radeon vii doing about the same. Merge mining with zilliqa for about the same return. Mining monero on my cpu at the same time. It acts as my space heater during the winter.

What the hell are you on about?
Have you actually done the numbers?
Are you in a pool? Let's see some stats.
GPU's have long since been unprofitable for mining - once ASIC's took over they wiped out GPU's.

I have super cheap electricity and already had the hardware. Works out for me. Not sure about OP

I have a 1080 and the numbers didn't make sense, I remember looking at the 1080ti as well and it was the same story. You get a tiny little payout so technically you're on the board, but the electricity is what kills you.

could make more in an hour begging on the street corner

Wtf are you talking about? I have a node running 12 RX 550's that still beat my electricity cost [even at @$.12 a KW!] Plenty of GPUs are VERY profitable and I'm about to upgrade my mining nodes to TITAN with my eth profits.

Nobody has made an ASIC to dethrone GPUs from ETHASH yet.

Yeah, I'll look into it again but I know last I checked I'd be losing money. I'm in CA, so costs are higher too, but even at 12KW I think I'd be down.
