So things I've done as a NEWB,
Joined Antpool and Slushpool as they were easy to find and set up. some others not so much.
Downloaded a few remote software miners and well connection issues will drive me nuts and make me not want to use something.
Failed - Multiminer (had high hopes)
GuiMiner
untested- AwesomeMiner (I really do not want to pay for it but I will if it works)
As for the Pi's I have decided to start selling the stuff off on Bitify or other platform once I find it. God I miss BITMIT.
Topic: Old Miner starting again (Read 246 times)
Well hello to everyone, More than that I am making a second attempt at writing a intro thread again.
Its been a while a long while sense I did any mining. Why I left I am not certain. Sense that time the POOL that I worked with died and all the hardware I was using is obsolete. I am sure many of you are thinking I hear you but there are some questions that I have not been able to figure out yet and some that I have. thing is I want to start chatting and the best way is getting my voice heard.
I am not super active but I am hoping that will change as there are so many smart people on here.
Anyway on to my new questions:
1:) I am thinking of investing in at least 1 S9 antminer. The threads I've read were for the most part all positive and I love that. Has anyone else gone in this direction off the cuff and how many should I try to attain to make it an investment.
( I have seen that the difficulty has brought down the over all payout but I am not deterred I am convinced that it is still possible to mine for profit. Unless my wife says NO)
2:) POOLS there are so many, can I get a direction of a few good ones?
3:) Software: I used to us CGremote and an really sad that it is no longer a usable software. Other than Awesome Miner, has anyone else used any other GUI successfully? sorry I am not gig on monitoring cgminer on its own. Sadly I did not grow up on command line
4:) Is minepeon the easiest way to mine with a rPI? Just not sure it is worth putting my 3 RPI's to work as miners or to sell them.
thanks for allowing me to say hello and the ability to send questions. Hope this second attempt goes through.
Thanks
