Given that the cost of mining is like $1 per coin or so
How come it's 1$ per coin?
What I see is 6 x RX580 ( 6 x 1.7 gps = ~ 10gps). For more than 24h, I can't mine even 1 coin..
One 1080 gets ~4-5 gps, 1080Ti ~6-7 gps. AMD sucks for grin. Although difficulty is rising fast so my cost is also going up.
Would that work with a bootable Linux distribution on a USB stick?
I don't see why not.
That's either a lot of hash power or a lot of time planned to dedicate to grin. Are you sticking to grin 29?
18 GPUs at the moment. Will try AT31 over the weekend but so far it's been AR29.
Agreed, it's roughly $1 per Grin to mine with 'high-end' hardware ATM.
Rewards for c29 have more than halved since the beginning, and dropping fast...
Last full day I mined c29, gave me just more than 2 Grin, whereas on the 17th of this month was more like between 5 and 6 Grin.
Switching to Minerbabe and c31 yesterday, seems to have bumped it up to around 4 Grin again.
