You can get a D3 for like 300 bucks. Difficulty for AXE right now is still low so you will be able to mine a lot.
They also have a P2Pool available which is great and follows the true sense of crypto.
This coin has some of the best coding I've seen in a while with an active developer who looks like he never sleeps.
My advice is mine now while the difficulty is still low and you won't regret it.
thank you!! most of the credit should go to btc/dash devs, since we are still growing the team and dev budget. right now we observing steady community growth, the diff is low and everybody's mining nice amounts - so it feels right to keep things on natural course
