OP, you seem to have some experience in the matter. But my question to you is how profitable have you been in terms of your own mining ventures? I myself would like to get into the market, but if the profit isn't worth while then I can't see any reason in doing so.

I mine in a multipool (zpool) with GPUs nvidia, according with profitability I chose between neoscrypt, blake2s, nist5 or sib (better algos for GPU), right now I am mining neoscrypt, my hardware is 1 1060@6gb and 1 1050ti@4gb, miner is also important, some miners can to have higher hash rate than others, currently I have 1mh with both cards

I'm not sure what to choose. Please help. Use a cloud mining firm or hardware mining. If cloudmining which is best for biggest return. Also what hardware vs power consumption is best? Considering antmine7. Anyone has one is it any good? Thank you

I don’t think so that mining requires investing it only requires nonstop electricity and a heavy system to be used for mining. They will simply use your system for their work and pay you in bitcoin and that’s all. All you must be worried about electricity bills because it consumes a lot of electricity.

I mined ETH, but because the soon to arrive change to POS, and the increase of complexity, i decided to sell our miners, we build 5 eth miners, with a speed between 120 and 160 mhz, depending on heath, causing the cards to work at a lower rate, (each rack had 5 cards, we used r9 290 cards, and rx480 cards), but eventually per miner we got around 1.2 eth per month, and then eth started crashing, so we started to breakeven, (when adding electricity costs etc) so we decided to sell our hardware. We are now mining x11 coins, we have 10 antminers d3 and 5s9's. Though profit has gone down drastically we still believe, we can gain profit from it.

Currently mining (Antminer d3)
DASH,
CANNABISCOIN

GuldenCoin (Antminer s9);

Previously Mining:
ETH (homemade mining rigs running ETHOS)
Bitcoin (spoondoolytech miner, can't remember modelnr)

I use whattomine and cryptocompare website, the stay up to date on coins/profit on coins.

hope this gives you some ideas! gl!

I prefer btc, because btc is more qualified than other coins, although few days back btc has decreased significantly, you try to see progress now.
eth is an alternative coin of my choice, but I`m studying eth to date to find something right.

Of course i think the most sought for the mining or most mining is bitcoin for the mined by many people doing the mining because of course we know bitcoin has the highest value among other crypto coins. Even if i doing a mining, of course i choose bitcoin for mining than other coins, but maybe many people who already have enough capital to do mining, will do other mining on some other coins as well, who the prices is tolerable high beside bitcoin.

Most mainers prefer BTC, ETH and XMR. And though the Monero transactions take more place than Bitcoin, I'd like to try mining Monero. The privacy of Monero transactions will give an advantage to this currency in future.

I am eagerly looking forward to mining Dash from my latest research knowing the wonders the D3 can perform within a month or two. I believe that is good enough for anyone going into mining most especially for the first time. Hopefully, I am able to get one directly from bitmain.

i think if we have high end hardware, mining bitcoin is still good and if we can handle electricity fee then we are fine. i already trying to mining ltc in the past and i only used gridseed blade and so far i can make some nice amount but unfortunately, i am stop my mining because i am moving into another places which have high fee electricity.

With your experience, how often do the miners break down and need to be replaced? Newer miners can cost thousands, it's a shame if they stopped working.

It would definitely be Curecoin/Foldingcoin as far as GPU mining goes. Because finding cures for cancer is kind of important.

I have tried mining Curecoin, but it was extremely slow, the electricity bill was higher than the value of the total Curecoin mined.

But is the competition for bitcoin not too steep at this point for mining? what is, in personal experience, the most money/time coin. I thought bitcoin wasn't even top? i thought the ideal strategy is to mine other coin and exchange?
-Thanks

all definitely agree with bitcoin. and the second coin that I choose is ethereum, these two coins can we mine with the same gpu and this is not difficult, for the miners who already have the complete components have been in the two coins will make sure they mine because these two coins have a more promising prospect in compare other coins

You can benchmark your rig and it'll suggest a coin to mine (or more) based on your bench results using Minergate and their desktop GUI client - you can get it here http://bit.ly/MinerGPool . Pool fee can be as low as 1%. If you want to solo or pool mine, you can also check out the hardware comparison site for relatively up to date hash rates: http://mininghwcomparison.com/list/index.php
As for the ZEC switch, definitely worth considering, but don't discard ETC mining or UBQ (both using eth algo). They have pretty similar returns and won't go PoS anytime soon!
Update: there's currently a display bug in the minergate dashboard not displaying the gains, but they're working on it. Happy mining!

I like mining eth + lby on my gpu Cheesy

edit: just like mining for fun/ holding coins :p

You may not realize that this fun can actually help you to live your dreams in coming time if you mine some good ETH qty and if the price moves one way upwards then you will have some good profits and who know you may become millionaire if prices reach anywhere near btc in coming 5 years.

i Like BTC, BTC is the real king. Until now I'm still looking for it.

Mining BTC used to be very profitable, but now the competition has increased, is it actually still profitable? Do the Segwit updates affect mining much?
