Topic: Chia Coin Mining become unprofitable - the coin has fallen in price by 3 times - page 7. (Read 2314 times)

chia is interesting concept and need time for development

if you compare to dogecoin ATH at 8 may  price around 0.7 usd today around 0.17 usd it same fallen 3 times

about profit we don't know in future chia price jump or always falling and change to shit coin with zero profit

only time will tell

BINGO we have one who can see;

The only thing green about chia is that plants like feces.

Today at 100TB ( $3k USD of hdds ) earns you a whopping $5/day ROI; Think how much ETH u could earn with $3k gpu's ( if properly shopped ); When XCH(CHIA) hits' $40 it will be $1/day for 100TB (1,000 plots); That's when the cost of electricity is more than your earning. Lights go out.

Bitcoin & ETH are like rocks compared to the 'green feces'; Crypto by nature is computational, and that is energy; There are no perpetual motion machines and there are no free-energy cryptos, nor will there ever be.

Well, CRP is now mined as a part of huge promo action for miners https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5349259.new#new Maybe it will be interesting for you also. As between all the mentioned coins, it seems to be the greener one as it's mined on internet connection only.

Wait when the bear market finally sets in for months or a couple of years. That's when we shall separate men from boys. The coins that keep fighting on and the coins that will die a tragic death. Most of this green projects and coins shit will go down the drain and by the time we are ready for the next bull run people will have already cried, accepted what happened and moved on.

Hmm, I don't know. I don't like what is happening in the crypto market. In addition, using the example of chia, I am suspicious of the projects that Elon Musk praised. Also, given the current trends, green projects are likely to be popular. Therefore, perhaps krypton is the best solution. IMHO

I nearly fall for chia mining and now I'm so happy that I don't, all I have in my mind is wait till official pool gets here even when I've already seen good server powerful enough to easily handle chia plotting at a very affordable price now I invested that money into graphic cards instead

Exactly.Chia is more difficult to give a shot than with GPU-s,you need a lot of hard drive space which is very costly nowadays,a powerful processor and lots of ram.You can easily win more by GPU mining right now and the price of Chia falling is another red flag for me that things are not going well for Chia miners and most probably this won't change for a while.

i think his point is that op believes chia is eco-friendly and more efficient compared to other coins, which might not be as black and white as op think.

not to mention chia is relatively more difficult to mine if you don't have enough capital, and rely a lot on pure luck to mine a block.

Drawing a lot of power doesn't matter if one is mining a profitable coin using the GPUs. The problem with Chia is the coin price has plummeted sharply over the past month, and we don't know how far it's going to drop. I am sure there are people who spent a lot of money buying the HDD's when the profitability was promising, but are now stuck because of the current situation. I hope the risking pay off after some time.

Well except for the problem is that all chia shit coins call for you to replot every few months, so this re-plotting and killing your nvme's needing a super-computer to make new plots never ends;

Doubt me just check out this new NFT plot deal where they're telling everybody U MUST REPLOT again, the scam just never ends.

Just the on-ramp cost is expensive. The CPU intensive plotting. But after that the HDDs don't draw much power. So there is a huge difference plotting once and then farming vs. GPU mining, which continuously draws a lot of power.

Therefore, I only mine on video cards.
Comrades who invested in CHIA mining have recouped their investments and it may take another 6-12 months. Dogecoin is mined on ASICs, Monero is better to mine on processors.
I haven't heard anything about Crypton. But while Ethereum mining is relevant, I do not plan to mine other coins.

Honestly I'm not saying that this chia project is a total failure but it's far from green energy mining like many thinks, this coin isn't easy to mine like ravencoin or even ETH, using terabytes of HDD and plotting with higher end Servers or CPU will draw watts power you've never prepared for, o don't see different in mining ETH and Chia when it comes to power efficiency

Chia is an interesting concept, since it is the only real green way to have a Nakamoto type consensus algorithm. The success of the chain will solely depend on in which direction the Chia company is heading and how much adoption they can drive. I am mining it in a pool with some hard drives, that I was planning to buy anyway. If it becomes super unprofitabel to mine, I will just use the drive space for other purposes - datahoarding

A few weeks ago, hard drives began to fall in price, and some models are already 2 times lower than the May values. Everything is clear here: over the past month, the price of Chia has fallen by 3 times.

It becomes obvious why there is no hype for hard drives. Even if you imagine that in 2 months you will receive your 2 coins (2 Chia per block), then this will give you only $ 530. While we spent nearly $ 6,000 on 5 drives. With ever-increasing complexity, with a random chance and a falling cryptocurrency in price, it is impossible to return the investment.

So let's think about what other coins we can mine and earn.

1. Dogecoin. New blocks are discovered approximately once every minute on the Dogecoin network. For comparison, Bitcoin blocks are discovered approximately once every 10 minutes.
2. Monero. A Monero block is mined every 2 minutes, and we know that the current reward for mining transaction block is 4.99 XMR. So, by doing the simple math, we know that 1 XMR is mined every 24 seconds.
3. Crypton. You will receive Cryptons every 15 minutes (block generation time). You will also get Proof of Stake rewards on your Minimal Monthly Balance.

On the whole, such coins are worth mining as they're more eco-friendly than Bitcoin is, it requires less time for mining and fewer investments for mining.

Which eco-coin do you prefer more? Or green coins are just kind of hype now?
