Hi!
Is this coin dead? It seems to have dropped a lot in value: (compared to Jan 2018)
https://cryptoslate.com/coins/magi/I'm new to this coin (and cryptocurrencies in general), so I don't really know.
I'm currently mining at ~30KH/s (is that good?)
If it is dead, what could be some alternatives to it? (cpu-minable, stakeable, light...)
It ain't dead if people mine it, buy it, trade it, ask questions about it and get involved. Rinse, repeat
Welcome, by the way, and sorry for such a late reply.
I'm getting ~20-28KH/s from 2x RPi2B+ & 1x RPi3B+ with the latter also staking my wallet 24/7.
This produces anywhere between 0.25 to 2.25 XMG/day (difficulty, luck) from mining and 0.01 to 0.1 XMG/day from staking. I generate XMG 1-3 times per day from staking, I don't have millions, or even thousands.
As a learning project, and a nice community, Magi is a great place to start. The constraints imposed by hard-float ARM compatibility may make you a little frustrated if inexperienced in 'nix & cli. But if you're willing to reflash/rebuild once or twice as you start on Raspbian GUI then move to headless/SSH, or jump straight into headless
, you can gain some good insight and people here are willing to help.
Just make sure to backup private keys that control any XMG before you burn & churn a build.
I'm happy to share here my SSH commands & notes for you to use in setting up a Pi. Just ask.
