ETC is the next best safehaven for mining crypto on your GPU.

ZEC is also a tough contender.

None of the above. I will be taking risks on coins that aren't as profitable for a number of reasons. To me you're better off mining the  "coins" that the crowd is ignoring and you're able to fill your bags fast before everyone comes in to crash the price.

Remember the people who made out the best on ETH are those who mined it at .30-60 a coin and were mining a crazy amount of coins per day. I'm willing to bet the profits were next to nill during that time and now they have thousands of dollars if not millions. Tons of coins out right now with good tech behind it that are under the radar that people are ignoring because profits aren't the best compared to other coins. I'll be filling my bags while everyone is focusing on the shiny object....

Also SIA will have an asic soon, so it may not be a viable option for dual mining in a few months.

I agree here, this is something that I've been doing for years but I try to get to these type of coins before GPU mining even hits.

For example I CPU Mined a shitload of Pascal before anyone really thought of it and many months before GPU mining hit.

The thoughts for this thread/poll was more towards established coins that can be GPU mined, generally those coins that no one is paying attention to don't immediately have GPU mining capability.

Do you have a strategy to designate which coin to mine ? I am thinking just like you but I am too amateur to select a coin to mine and not shining currently.

Read the white paper - do research on the Dev team - evaluate the "promises" and if they are real world attainable given their choice of dev funding - are they a foundation/business or a group of devs - plenty of other ways to evaluate coins

Pretty much do all you can to remove the bias/emotion when deciding. I try and take a venture capital approach. If I mine 10 different coins, one of those coins are bound to catch on if I've done my due diligence correctly and will make up for the "lost profits" I incurred in the beginning. In Venture Capitol funding you pay X money to X number of startups in the hopes that at least one takes off and is where you make your money back you lost on the others.

I'm going to be mining one of those coins above primarily if ETH were to switch to POS or become unprofitable due to difficulty.

I haven't decided which but currently I'm leaning towards ETC because it makes most sense for my non-nvidia rigs. ZEC for my Nvidia rigs and wherever I would dual mine, I would pick SIA.

What's your plan right now?
