Topic: Best Speculative Coins to mine with NVIDIA GPU Rigs for February 2018 (Read 1004 times)
March 18, 2018, 11:13:54 PM
This is a tough call, because there are so many damned coins out there. GPU mineable cuts that number down, but may cut out some of the best. One option is to something like set equihash algo switch on MPH, autoconvert to btc, and use that to buy promising coins that may not necessarily be mineable (or easily mined with nvidias). Or scroll through the ANN thread and check out the projects.

I am a bit newer to GPU mining and was looking for best coin for my Nvidia.
This topic is good to have recent profitable coin.
I think there should a topic of sticky level to share the latest coin to help all those who are a bit new and also those who want to maximize profit.

Why not ZCL ?

Anyone else want to weigh in? Zelcash vs Shield --- which is best to mine right now?
February 11, 2018, 10:58:23 PM
Right now I am 100% on Zelcash. Shield was pretty profitable this last week but I think that was only because zpool had some issues with the auto-exchange and removed it. Now that its back on Zpool we have to deal with the waves of high hashrate that take all of the blocks and then leave once the difficulty rises. I basically go by this site: https://blockstats.pw/shield/ It gives you a good idea of the currently profitability by algo. Its only a matter of time before people find out about Zelcash though, so who knows how long it will still be worth mining.
So why Zelcash over shield right now? They seem to be approx. the same mining profitability at the moment, and similar near to mid term prospects, with Shield holding an edge on being more established, on coinexchange.io, more decentralized team (community-based), no premine etc.
I'd like to dive in to zelcash, and had started mining, but am contemplating switching back to Shield ---- is there a good reason to stick with zelcash over shield?

Honestly its hard to know if what coin had potencial to grow in the future but i was mining only few coins gbx and zcl because i see solid devs about this coin but i stop mining and switch to zcash instead because the price lately is drop and i feel that zcash would be the best to mine because the price is recovering too fast than the other altcoin to mine. .

We didn't miss the boat on XSH, I am mining more coins at 125 per block than i was at 250. I think it will skyrocket once the masternodes are implemented. I mean look at all of the neoscrypt absolute shitcoins who come out of the gate with $10 values because of the masternodes. XSH actually has legitimate ideas.
Look into Zelcash also.

Thanks for the Zelcash tip --- if you had to choose, would you mine Zelcash or Shield coin right now? I have 2 rigs --- should I mine both and just use one rig for each one, or better to pour all resources into just one of them?
Zelcash is very early, so mining could reap larger rewards if the coin spikes down the road, but is it as likely to have as much success as Shield coin may have?

I would say zcash. Hasn't had a 10x pump yet and it's the most reputable since jp Morgan using zcash blockchain partnership. Komodo has potential. Zen cash also. But these are not exactly cheap in price but that's irrelevant but they are cheap in terms of huge growth potential. I would avoid coins with no partnership potential
Why does a coin need to be partnered with a major bank to be worthwhile? Also keep in mind this "partnership" has nothing to do with the actual coin. Its the developers getting paid to integrate the technology into JP Morgan's proprietary blockchain. The fact that a privacy coin development team is working with JP Morgan though should raise eyebrows.
Sure you can get your 10x gains on shitcoins on a once a year pump and dump. Go for it but know ur playing that game and cash out when u need to.
But if you want to get 100x- 1000x + gains long term your going to need to mine a real quality coin with business partnerships, b/c it has everything to do with being appraised at a high value among investors.
Just b/c it has masternodes doesnt' make it special. All shitcoins these days have master nodes b/c its so easy to just copy code and not do anything more with it.
The heavy majority of minable coins are just bad long term investments, and you know it so don't fool yourself.
I don't know why you keep referencing masternodes, I never once said that feature made a coin quality. The majority of the highest marketcap coins don't have business partnerships, and the coin with the 3rd highest marketcap (Ripple) is grossly overvalued. Zcash is at $400, its not going to grow 10x-100x in the next 10 months. A true speculative coin would be one that isn't popular but has the potential to go much higher.

Shield started with 8000 coins per block but now down to 125 coins so looks like we missed the boat for mining.
Are there better coins than shield (XSH) to mine using NVidia rigs right now for long-term prospects?

So here we are in Feb 2018, BTC down for the count but likely destined for a major comeback later in the year, bringing alts with it.
What are some of the best under-the-radar coins ripe for mining in 2018?
Are there any great low-cost coin prospects that are best mined by Nvidia cards for 2018?
As an example, I am currently mining about 500 Shield coins (XSH) per day using nine GTX 1070. This has current value of about $25 per day, but as a speculative coin,it could rocket back up to 30 cents or even 1 to 4 dollars, making the per-day mining potential extremely lucrative.
Are there better speculative coins to mine? I'm talking about coins that are in extremely early stages and at extremely low values that may not yield much mining profits today, but if accumulated could yield massive profits down the road.
For example, I would have loved to have mined plenty of XVG, XRP etc. last Spring, or some ETH in 2016.
So for 2018, what are the best low-value but high potential coins that you can pull in at high quantities per month, not necessarily caring about the current daily mining value?
